Sunset Shimmer had just gotten back to her Gotham City apartment building so she could just cry her heart out and drown her sorrows in alcohol. Even though she had moved into a new town and tried to start a new life, she had still not gotten over the physical and psychological trauma that she was, well, forced really, to endure at the hands of her classmates.
Even when she tried to sleep, she could still hear the laughter of her evil classmates from outside her apartment window, like they were waiting to finally end her life. But every-time she went to check, she saw nothing as she knew that it was just her mind slowly turning to mush.
She would usually huddle into a corner of her bedroom and spend the rest of the night crying, but this time she had finally had enough, as she stormed out of her apartment room and out in the cold rain as she looked at the sky almost she was looking out into the heavens.
Even awake she could still hear that horrid laughter emanating from every direction, Sunset always's wondered why she had to suffer still and why God hasn't come to free her from this mental torture. It was almost like God had forsaken her, almost like God was playing a cruel joke on her, and she was the punchline.
Sunset couldn't hear the rain drops anymore, all she could was the laughter and the jeering and judging voices of all her classmates.
"PLEASE STOP IT, WHY WON'T YOU LEAVE ME ALONE!" Sunset screamed hysterically. "STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT STOP ITTTT!!!"
Then, when Sunset opened her eyes she saw that she was in some kind of factory or plant or something like that. Then she saw that she was facing a vat of green liquid that was bubbling. Then the vat transformed into the face of a clown, as it began to cackle maniacally as a swarm of hands were pushing her into the vat, Sunset tried to fight it off but to no avail, her attempts were proven useless.
The hands finally dropped her off the ledge she was on as she was then engulfed by the mouth of madness.
Thank goodness it was only a nightmare as Sunset woke up screaming as she saw that she was once again in the safety of her room, but this brought the poor teenager no comfort as she knew that if she fell asleep again she would just have to go through that hell all over again.
Sunset instead just spent the rest of her evening crying at her bedside just hoping that the next day wouldn't get as bad or worse.
The next day, Sunset had come to a deli near her apartment so that she could quickly grab a to-go order and leave so that no one would have to even acknowledge her presence at all. However as she was leaving, she didn't notice that Gilda and her cronies were there and they were looking right at Sunset as she was leaving the deli.
"Well well well, this is where Sunset Bummer has been this whole time," Gilda said as she grew a sadistic smile. "I don't really care if those Cmc's were really Anon-A-Miss all this time, making Sunset's life miserable has just felt so good."
"You know what, I'm done humiliating her, I think its time we cut her out of the picture permanently," Gilda said as her cronies all nodded their heads in agreement as they quietly followed Sunset to her apartment complex.
They then hid under a bush as she went inside her apartment complex. They had to wait for three hours before Sunset finally left her room so that she could get some dinner.
Gilda then slipped out from the bushes in some kind of twisted clown mask so that she could hide her identity. Her cronies identical clown masks.
They followed Sunset throughout 5-10 blocks before they finally got behind her.
Gilda then tapped Sunset's shoulder and as she turned around she saw the people in clown masks, and it immediately raised red-flags.
"Who are you, what do you want," Sunset asked with a worried tone in her voice. "Please, I've had a really hard day today, so please just leave me alone, I don't have any money."
"We don't want money," Gilda said. "What we want is revenge on you Anon-A-Miss."
When Sunset heard what she said she tried to run, but she was immediately knocked out by a Crowbar.
Gilda then saw a building that said in big letters, Ace Chemical Plant.
"Hey boy's, take her to that chemical plant, over there," Gilda said.
"You got it boss," One of her cronies said with a smirk.
"Wait, what if Batman comes after us," Another Crony said.
"So what if the big bad Batman comes after us, we have guns," Gilda said. "What's the worst he could do?"
"Oh, I don't know, he might break through a window and smash our faces in," The goon said.
"Alright, can you just shut the fuck up," Gilda said. "You're stressing me out!"
When Sunset woke up, she saw that she was facing a similar green vat of chemicals.
"Gilda, where am I," Sunset asked.
"You're in Ace Chemicals, Genius," Gilda said. "Besides, I didn't think that you would actually have come all this way to Gotham City."
"Please, don't hurt me, I'm not Anon-A-Miss," Sunset Pleaded.
"Oh, we know that you're not Anon-A-Miss," Gilda said. "The Cmc's confessed everything, but really, we just don't care. I've been waiting a long time for this moment to occur, where I can finally get rid of you for good."
"Please don't do this, what will killing me accomplish for any of you," Sunset asked.
"Well, nothing really, it's just that causing innocent people misery just feels so damn good," Gilda said as she was slowly pushing her towards the vat."
"Wait Miss Gilda," One of her Cronies said. "Let's put this clown mask on her just to show how much of a joker she really is."
"Yeah, great idea," Gilda said as she put the mask over Sunset head as she continued crying and pleading for them to stop.
"Alright got the mask on, even though we already put make-up on her," Gilda said.
"Alright, ready to drop her into the vat boy's," Gilda said.
"Yep, we're ready boss," the goons said. "Alright, 1...2..."
Before they could do anything, the doors were suddenly burst open and flooded with police officers.
"Alright, Gilda, this is the GCPD, let go of the hostage and put your hands behind your head," Rainbow-Dash said.
"Rainbow-Dash," Sunset thought to herself as she recognized her former friends voice.
"GO TO HELL, DASH!" Gilda said as she and her goons started opening fire.
This made Rainbow and the rest of the officers start to open fire as well, actually hitting two of the four goons.
"STOP," An unknown voice said from the shadows, which was then revealed to be The Legendary Batman. "Don't shoot, I'll do things my way."
The Batman then knocked out one of the goons while the last one took off running.
"You cowards, kill the stupid Bat," Gilda roared.
"I'm getting out of here, screw you Gilda," The Goon said as he disappeared through the door.
Gilda finally was at the peak of her frustrations, as she grabbed Sunset by her neck.
"Don't you come any closer, Bat-Freak, or I'll dump this bitch in the vat," Gilda said. "I've been waiting for revenge for 5 years and I'm not letting some guy dressed as a Bat fuck this up for me!"
"You have two options Gilda, let her go or you're jail sentence is going to be worse than breaking and entering," Batman said.
"Don't you lecture me Batman," Gilda roared. "ALRIGHT, I'VE HAD ENOUGH!"
Before Gilda could react, Rainbow shot Gilda in the leg, Gilda let Sunset go as she screamed in pain.
Batman then swooped in to try and get the hostage out of harms way.
"It's ok, you're safe now," Batman said as he tried to reach for Sunset. "I'm here to help you."
However, Sunset was still delirious from a mixture of impact of the crowbar to her head and the fumes from the chemical vat, and what she saw instead of Batman was a giant man-bat creature with green glowing eyes.
What she heard him say was, "I'm here to kill you!"
"No, stay away from me, don't come any closer, you monster," Sunset said in her state of demented stupor.
"I have to get away," Sunset said as she saw the vat of chemicals.
"No, stop," Batman said. "Don't do it!"
"Have to...GET AWAY FROM IT!" Sunset said as she jumped over the ledge and down into the chemical bath. Sunset never resurfaced.
"Drain the vat, she may still be down there," Batman ordered two GCPD officers, however when they drained the Chemical Pool, they found nothing, except for a burned clown mask
"No, I was too late," Batman said with a face of pity. "I'm sorry, I couldn't save you."
"Don't worry Batman, we'll make sure this punk spends a long time in a cell in Black-Gate," Commissioner Gordon said as two officers escorted her and three of her goons into a patrol car.
Meanwhile, in the shoreline of The Gotham City Beach, a couple were walking close to the shoreline as they were enjoying their 7th wedding anniversary together, that was until they saw what appeared to be a body drifting towards the shoreline.
"Honey, call the life-guard," The wife said.
When the life-guard saw the body, he then called the Gotham state hospital, and when the recovered the girl and brought her to a hospital room, they noticed that her skin was now bleached white as snow, and her hair was now completely emerald green, she almost looked like a circus clown.
"Mmm," Sunset murmured as she woke up.
"Aww, You're finally awake, we almost thought that we had lost you," The doctor said.
"Where am I, Who am I," Sunset said as she started to look around her surroundings.
"You're in The Gotham City Hospital," One of the nurses said. "Wait, you don't know who you are?"
"No, I can't really remember anything," Sunset said as she was rubbling her head.
"Ok Doctor, she has Amnesia," The Nurse said. "Probably a psychological after-effect from all the chemicals she had."
Then Sunset saw her face, and started laughing a little.
"Miss, is something wrong," The Nurse asked.
"No, nothing's wrong, it's just my face makes me look like one of those Jokers you see in a deck of playing cards," Sunset said. "I was just laughing because it kinda made me look a little silly looking, ha ha ha ha," Sunset said as it made her laugh again.
"Alright, well the adds another one officer," The Doctor said as The Officer had a notepad that had three names on it, "The Criminal, The Comedian, and The Clown."
He then put in a second name, "The Patient."
