Re: Thus Wanders Zatanna
Zatanna stared curiously att the departing vigilante... Even through the mask... It was strange.. She felt like his eyes had seen something deep within her, penetrated her. Was there something she was missing? Some piece of a puzzle whose box she could not see. She felt like the big picture was just out of reach. The eyes sunken inside the dark mask had a glint in them that she knew would drive her mad with confusion. And then there was the mutter.. She could have sworn he'd said her name as she leaned in. She could have sworn even through the muscles stretching his tight black suit a different tension, like an acknowlegement of something, the tiniest shrug or difference in stance that seemed to speak volumes. Or was she hearing things? Seeing things? Intoxicated by some imagined electric spark, drinking in the impossible alure of the shadowy figure so effortlessly strong. The way he hoisted that blonde and shot out like a bat out of hell..
Zee couldn't see any way she could make more sense of it down in the dank room so out she went. The hard way. She could use one of those... Shooty things. Whatever it was it was surely better than the slick metal rungs set into the cement wall, stained somewhat by the white of Joker's makeup as he'd climbed so hastily away. Or so she figured anyway based on the way he'd run away from the dunk tank. All Zatanna knew was her mind couldn't leave on that strange moment that at least she imagined she'd shared with the dark knight. All she wanted was to track him down... Her entire existance seemed suddenly to make no sense, or at least... Zee felt like iit wouldn't until she could get some answers. So off she went... She could see the tracks laid in the road by the seared smear of rubber as Batman pealed off in the Batmobile shepherding Vicki to the hospital. "dniw eht sa tsaf ria fo ffup a no em taolF". The wind thrilled her lost mind as she flew on wings of air towards the direction taken of the sleek, powerful auto.
