Five minutes later, Alfred ran outside, seeing a familiar shape arrive. He smiled in relief, a sigh escaping his lips. He looked at his ripped up suit, but did not care. At this point, he cared only about his Master's safety. He hoped that the clown and Robin brought something to defeat Superman with.
Something must calm his destructive ways and rage.

Joker landed carefully onto the snow and saw Alfred. Robin opened the door and climbed out of the jet, running to Alfred and hugging him. The clown chuckled softly, taking out the keys from the ignition slot and climbing out of the jet as well. He locked all the doors and walked up to the butler who looked as if he had just been through a violent war. Alfred smiled at Joker and his eyes widened as the pale man gave the butler the keys to the jet.

"It's best if you go back," he said calmly. "I think we got this."

"Are you sure?" Alfred asked, raising an eyebrow to Robin and the clown. "We are talking about Supe-"

"Superlame," Joker cut in, making Robin giggle. "We know. But we don't want you to get killed off for no reason. You already did enough. Don't you think so, Robin?"

The freckled face boy nodded and smiled at Alfred, "you deserve a little break! You did enough work for now!"

Alfred took in some of the cold air into his lungs and exhaled. He looked at Joker with serious eyes. "Alright. I guess it is a good idea, then. Just in case any criminals decide to run loose back at Gotham, I will go back. Please, be careful. We all should know how violent Superman can be."

Joker nodded and bit his lip, "I made a little secret weapon for Superlame just in case he tries anything."

Alfred nodded and pat Robin's head "Then, I'll leave you two to it. Please be careful." They both nodded as they headed towards the door. A few moments later, Alfred had left and went back to Gotham City.

Joker looked at Robin, smiling to the young boy. The two then entered inside the Fortress of Solitude, feeling the even colder air hit their faces. The clown bit his lip, remembering his nightmare from earlier that day. It seemed that the dream had turned into a reality. The only difference was that he was not alone. He was accompanied by the Boy Wonder, who stood by his side, and Joker was not running, not yet at least.

Then it hit the clown. He looked at Robin and grabbed his hand, tears beginning to form in the corners of his eyes. "We need to leave! Now!" He shouted silently in panic. Robin nodded as they ran towards a loud crash, screams followed afterwords. Joker's tears began to fall as he remembered what the caped crusader looked like in the nightmare. How the blood treckled down the Dark Knight's bruised bottom lip. The thoughts made the clown tremble as they ran closer to an empty space area. Robin gasped as he saw Superman choking his father in the air. Batman continued to thrash and try to loosen the other's grip, only making it slightly worse.

Joker growled and gritted his teeth in anger and fear; bottom lip quivering and eyes turning into sharp knives. Robin could tell that the pale man was very angry at the, so called, 'superhero'. It was very obvious.
"We'll stop him, Mister Joker! Let's go!" He whispered, determination glistening in his eyes.

The clown nodded, gripping onto Robin's hand as they followed the flying superhero. The freckled face boy and the clown went into several corners rapidly so that Superman did not notice them. But then, it hit the Joker in the blink of an eye. He looked at Boy Wonder and smirked.
"Can you distract Superlame for me? I can help your da- I mean- Padre and stop him!" Joker said in a whisper.

Robin nodded and gave a thumbs up to the Joker, "you got it!"

Joker smiled at the little boy and hugged him tightly, more tears escaping his eyes. He then said, "please be careful. I can't lose you and Batsy."
