"Danny? Sweetie, where are you?"
A blond haired woman wearing a small black dress peeked from her balcony, searching for her husband. At first they were simply having a nice family dinner. All of them were laughing and drinking, but the environment began to get suffocating. And Danny decided to have a smoke on the balcony.Mr. Danny Bitelo was a family man. He told most of his friends and family that he worked in a bank. Yet, in the dark streets of Gotham, he was more known as a well known mafia boss. He had many who fallowed him and respected him. But he had even more people who feared and envied him. Even so, he was pretty wealthy for a simple bank worker. And since his wife was a mere house wife, he was the one who could pay for the beautiful house they lived in. For the expensive clothing they wore. Everything. You'd think this was an act of despair. Working for the mafia, trying to get the best for his family...but no. Danny had became a terrible person along the way to the top.
"...Danny...?"
The woman asked once again, looking for her husband. She finally decided to get back inside and keep looking. Unaware that up on the rooftop was her husband, with a cigarette in his mouth...but not alone. A masquerade woman had her whip around the man's neck, holding it tight like trying to suffocate him. The man struggled while his pale face began to turn red. Yet, the woman wearing huge goggles smiled deviously. "Shhh...calm down mister Bitelo. We're just having a small talk. Please, finish your cigarette." She said in her calm and slow tone, like trying to seduce him. The man took a deep breath, and tried to smoke his cigarette calmly. Yet while he held his cigarette he could feel his entire arm shaking in nervousness. A small amount of smoke escaped from his semi-closed mouth, while looking at the woman before him.
"What's...What's this all about?"
The man asked, trying to sound as relaxed as he could. His voice was weak. Like he had a bad cough. Selina smiled while looking at the man's dark brown eyes. "You've been rather active this last week haven't you...Danny...can I call you Danny?" The masked woman asked, yet she didn't wait for an answer and continued, still smiling. "Let me guess...trouble with your wife?" The white haired man's eyes suddenly widened when the strange woman finished that phrase. She couldn't help but to chuckle a little. "Ah, I'm right. See...It had to be something like that. Because, I had never seen you with a prostitute before, Danny." The man's eye twitched.
"W-What do you want? You want to blackmail m-me? Huh?"
The man asked, still holding his cigarette between his fingers. Catwoman shook her head while chuckling slightly. That man could look like a God between his followers...but at that moment, he was a mere rat. "Heavens no, not blackmailing! It's just that...how can I put this? Every time you went into a motel with those girls, they would...simply vanish, you know?" Selina's whip became tighter around Mr. Bitelo's neck. Her eyes were hidden behind huge goggles, but they were burning with anger while looking at the man. "Tell me...Danny...did it feel good to slit that seventeen year olds throat?" The man tried to shake his head, yet the whip only got tighter. "Please..." The man tried to talk, but his voice was weaker than a whisper. "Perhaps you got excited when that red haired girl began begging you to not shoot her, hm?" She said, calmly and softly once again.
The man's eyes wouldn't stop moving. But he suddenly seemed to snap. He frowned while looking at Selina and tried to step forward. "So what?! Who gives a damn about what happens to those bit--?!" He yelled in an aggressive way, this time he was loud and clear. Yet, Selina's hand quickly covered his mouth, dropping her previous smile. Her claws grabbed tight into Mr. Bitelo's cheeks, making him widen his eyes. "...I do, Danny. I'm sick and tired of your mindless killing." She said, looking terribly serious. After that, Selina released Mr. Bitelo completely, simply grabbing his tie with her hand, making a seductive look once again. "...Go ahead, Danny. Finish your cigarette." The man slowly placed the cigarette in his mouth, his face turning pale, making a small smile curl up on Selina's face.
The cigarette's flame vanished.
"Good night, Danny."
The hand that grabbed Mr. Bitelo's red tie suddenly pushed him with a lot of strength, making Danny and his cigarette fall down from the roof of his house. There was no chance he could survive a fall like that...not if nobody saved him. Catwoman simply decided to stand there, both of her hands on her hips, smiling deviously while watching the man fall.
"Hmm...I think I need a treat...A small visit to Danny's adorable wife's jewelery box, perhaps?" Selina mumbled to herself while grabbing her chin.
