The True Queen of Gotham

Burning down the house

(Rocket POV)

I had a dilemma, the only transport I had at the moment was my bike, and I wasn't gonna make my babies run beside me on the hot tarred road. I could've made them follow me, God knows they would've kept up, but their paws had become soft with being inside so much. The road would crack 'em and make 'em very painful

So I did what anybody in my situation would do.....

I stole Commissioner Gordon's car

I mean, it was parked further than the others, it was also unlocked, and the keys were in the ignition. Only a fucking idiot would let this opportunity pass by

When I realised all eyes were on my apartment building, I opened the doors to the car and helped Bud and Lou inside. Driving down the highway towards the Don's house, Bub sat quietly in the front seat, his eye occasionally catching on something of interest

Lou was a different story

He had half his body hanging out of the back window behind me, letting out his cackling bark

When we stopped at the Red light, he cackled at a guy who thought he was a God, who was walking the pavement, only for the guy to literally shit himself when his eyes found Lou

It was hilarious

Approaching the gated community, I pulled up to the guard whose eyes went wide when he saw me

"Uh....ma'am, you can't go in without an scheduled invitation" He whimpered. He looked around himself, and knew he had no escape

I leant out my open window and glared at him "There's a person in there that gave the go ahead to blow up my apartment, almost killing my babies. I'm here to return the favour. Now you're either gonna let me in, or imma gonna kill you and let myself in" I pulled out my hunting knife, so he could see it "It's not a hard decision, but I'll make it for you if you don't open the fucking gates"

"Please ma'am, I really need this job" He begged

"Open the damn gates, and you'll get to keep it" I shrug, flipping the blade a couple of times in my hand "Time is ticking and you're wasting it"

He gulped and took a couple of steps back "Who Uh....who are you here to see ma'am? I need it for my records"

I rolled my eyes, getting really sick of this bullshit game "Open the mother fucking gate boy, I'm running out of fucking time"

The man sighed and nods his head defeated "Yes ma'am" He went into his little hut, and the gates opened

I didn't drive through them straight away because I called out to him first "If the cops show up, you're dead" Then I accelerate through the gates, ignoring the guys terrified look

The place was like any sort of gated community. Houses too big, egos even bigger. You could tell people spent more time on their lawns than with their own children

The Don's house wasn't that difficult to find, all you needed to look out for, were the armed guards at the fence

Taking a leaf out of Harleys book, I made sure my babies were secured inside the car, wound up the windows and drove through the fucking gate
