Thread: When 9 Lives Aren't Enough (DanceWithDemise x Rand)

The Joker showed a surprising display of patience by waiting for Ms. Kyle's next move. Or to see if she would even take the rather tempting bait in the first place. Whether by intention of taking down a dangerous foe to her dear Bat or even to try and swipe a few of his pinched goods out of his grasp. The criminal mastermind needed wait long, however, as the Catwoman quickly made her less than subtle entrance onto the scene. To her credit, this did take the Joker slightly by surprise due to how it clashed with the famed cat burglars usual way of handling matters. The madman wasn't caught entirely unprepared, however, as he shot up to his feet - that permanent smile making the perfect 'poker face' for what was to come. The crack of the whip came fast enough for him to not be able to avoid it completely, but there was a brief enough window for him to put a hand up to keep it from completely coiling around and firmly strangling at his exposed neck. Standing there with hand fastened to one side of his neck, the Joker gave an amused little chuckle at the kittens presence. Funny. And here I thought this building had a 'no pets' rule in place. The clown remarked with no limit of amusement to his voice - seemingly uncaring even when it became clear she had a rather 'permanent' solution for dealing with his menace. But I suppose there's always somebody wanting to take in strays. How is the old Bat doing these days, anyway? The Joker added, playing his hand masterfully by seemingly keeping his entire focus on the invading cat burglar - even as another figure managed to slink back into the room through a secondary entrance into the room. Back off, kitty cat! Try gettin' your own man to put the squeeze on! Shouted the bubbly voice of Harley Quinn, as she held up the 'gun' with a rather heavy looking boxing gun apparatus on the end of it. Selina may have had enough time to glance around and get an idea of her situation, but the female jester had already pulled by trigger partway through her sentence - sending the large boxing glove hurling forward with a spring attaching it to the gun barrel as the blunt object collided with her face. For whatever effect the weapon may have had on the Catwoman, it would surely be enough to keep her from making a quick escape as Harley brought a hand up and whistled for reinforcements while the Joker watched on in mostly silent delight - save for the rather sickening chuckles that escaped his frozen smile covered lips. The following minutes would comprise of several large goons - each with their face painted white and with various clown markings and even a few fake noses decorating their grotesque features - charging into the room and dealing with the likely struggling Selina. Strap her to the bed, boys! It's time this kitty got housebroken. The Joker instructed, watching with glee as his main squeeze moved to his side - arm hooked around one of his own, as they watched the cat burglar being tied to the nearby bed. Selina's ankles and wrists would find themselves bound to the four posts of the bed, leaving her in a rather vulnerable position, as the rather brutish looking thugs hovered over her body - each of their eyes peeking down at her firm young body through the grotesque clown make up which covered their less than handsome features.
