As Penny stepped through the door into Gotham City she couldn't help the automatic narration that began in her mind. It sounded like the narrator from the original TV series that used to be on during the day when she'd be home sick from school. It came on right after the Price is Right, and she had loved it.
"You think Gotham City is a peaceful city? Well Ho ho ho put your gum under your teeth, hold your breath and get ready to cheer Batman and hissss his diabolical enemies." Played, without fail, every time she walked into this place. And she knew better. She had actually been to this door before, but as dangerous as it was, she still couldn't help it. Maybe it made her a little jovial. She didn't know.
She made her way down the street, to the bus, to the train, to the stop, and not once did she see Batman and Robin scaling buildings. The image of him doing the Batusi was pretty good, and kept her amused while she told off some jerk on the train who was sitting way too close to her.
She was still dressed in her army working uniform and her white medical coat, hair tied neatly above her collar and covered by her cap. And she had her army issued winter coat on as well. Her shiny boots hit the pavement hard, as she walked head up and proud. Tall and determined. Slung over her shoulder was her medical bag, and her backpack that held her civvies and her personal items was on her back. She wasn't bogged down by the weight, and she didn't struggle, she was not even winded by the time she got to the park where Clementine had wanted to meet.
