Jub’s Grub was one of the only places in down town Gotham still open for business. Everywhere else had been forced to shut down or had gone out of business. The only places open these days were corrupt to the core and owned by people who were connected to the major criminals. How Jub had managed to keep the place open was still unknown even though he was of questionable moral him self. This is where she worked.
Vyolette Isley clutched her messenger bag as she walked to Jub’s Grub. Tonight was one of her few nights off but she was hungry and they had a good employee discount. She was the only full time employee they had and that meant quite a few double shifts.
Her bright red hair bobbed as she listened to music on the short walk from her apartment was just up the street, a studio apartment over and old Chinese restaurant that went out of business way before she moved in. She stepped off the curb and on to a can that she heard crunch under her foot. She jumped back on the curb holding her chest trying to get breathing again. The neighborhood wasn’t the worst in Gotham but it wasn’t Bristol either.

Wisti normally did't go this far into Gotham but she was avoiding Wayne tower. Her dad had to take the day off and wanted her to take his place at the meeting he had, but she was protesting because he always need her to go to a meeting cause he was just being lazy. So she decided to hide. She walk into the place called Jub's Grub. It sounded weird, true but she liked weird. She looked around and sat down at an empty table and waited for someone to take her order. She looked out the window and started to daze off when she heard a familiar song, " My Immortal" coming from her pocket, it was her phone she pulled it out saw the name "DAD", she hit ignore.

Neo walked down the street in downtown Gotham. She was dressed in her civilian garb. She had her hair up in pigtails and was wearing a school girl outfit. But her own version. With big black platform boots and stripped socks. Her red glasses stood out on her pale white face. Even up in pigtails her hair reached almost her waist. She stood out like a light among shadows.She skipped to beat of the drum in her head. She was looking at all the different closed down stores ad shops. Each one gave her a small smile. She had heard stories of what Gotham used to look like. She held her hands behind her back. She walked like a feather. She only thing that seemed suspicious was the chain wrapped around her wrist. It rattled behind her. The chain never touched the ground once, because it draped down and came back up. Attached to a black collar around the neck of a tall hooded boy. She pulled him along like a puppy but he walked and acted more a pit-bull. She smiled big. Her smile didn't quite fit her small face. And her eyes reflected light like a cats eyes. She stopped in front of the lit up restaurant. She looked at her chained toy and tilted her head to one side. "How about here pet? Looks fun to me.. Looks dirty and grungy its perfect. "

Jester chuckled as he was pulled along by Neo. His smirk turned into a smile as he watched Neo walk around and looked at the closed shops pulling the chain that was attached to his collar. He fixed his hood so it covered his eyes, the only feature of his face that could be seen was his smile. He started laughing as he looked at Neo and realized how akward their relationship would look to others. He was in his black skeletal sweater, black jeans with a long wallet chain that clanked softy every time he walked and a neon green belt with a black skull wearing a jester's hat for a belt buckel. When Neo pulled the chain he looked to the resturant. "Sure, why not" He chuckled

Vyolette walked up to Jub's Grub and straight in up to the counter and smiled pretty bending over the counter as she ordered her to go box. She looked around blankly, none of her normals were in tonight. She looked back to the kitchen and hollered at Jub, "If you hurry up I will take the orders to the tables." she started taping impatiently on the counter. This is how it always was when she wasn't working, he always worked slower with out her here to harass him.

Ignoring her dad's call, Wisti went up to the counter to order. She stopped at the counter, "Hey can someone take my order please?" she looked around and saw a girl with red hair leaning over the counter. "Hey u work here?" she wasn't really in a hurry to leave it was just that she was really hungry. In the rush to get out the door before her father and their new butler, Richard, had had time to even see her that morning, she had incidentally forgot to eat. She also made sure she had extra clothes with her, later she had a race. Her passion... was street racing. She loved the trill of a fast car, the adrenaline racing and of course the enjoyment of watching the guy's faces getting pissed for losing to a girl.

Neo giggled and printed in pulling him with. She looked around and smiled big. She noticed the two girls already in the place. She nodded her head to them. 'Ladies." She smiled and pulled him to a big booth in the corner by the window. She Didn't slide in. She hopped up and climbed over the table. She squatted down and tapped her hands on the table. "This place seems like it has a dark side." She laughed and swung the chain on her wrist. "What do you think, love?" She smiled. She waited a little bit and stood up in the seat and leaned over the table hands on it. And kinda shouted. "Does this place have wait staff?"

Jester just smiled as he was dragged into the place by the chain. Looking around he nodded to the girls already inside than quickly followed Neo to the booth. He looked around and shrugged. "I wouldn't say dark side, maybe a little shady" He chuckled and slid to the end of the booth, stretching out and laughing at Neo. "Maybe its one of those go up and order places" He chuckled and pulled his hood down farther. He sighed as he rested back and looked like he was about to take a nap. "Let me know if anything exciting happens" He reaching into his pocket and pulled out his ipod, putting one of his headphone buds in. The smile never left his face.

"Yeah I do." Vyolette looked at the girl and walked around the counter mumbling profanities at her self then turned around and shouted at Jub, "Scratch my order. Seems that Kelly decided not to help tonight." she had noticed the girl Kelly slip into the back room when she walked in and hadn't come back out yet. This is why she didn't normally come in on her days off. "What can I get for ya hon?" she plastered a smile on her face just like she did every other night she worked. She slid the apron on over her clothes as she slid the bag off her shoulder. She then looked at the 2 at the table and smiled at them, "I will be with ya in a minute." she mentally rolled her eyes, this was not a good start to the night. She pulled out her pen and paper pad from her apron ready to take the order.

Wisti looked over at the two in the booth and then back to the waitress. "I'm guessing its your day off?" she smiled "Um can i get a chicken sandwich, fries and a soda." she then lowered her voice, "Hey do you know those two sitting in that booth over there?" she couldn't help it she was a nosy person, it sometimes got her into trouble with her dad. She had checked out every person's house her dad knew. But it was also a good thing too, it helped her know things before they happened.

Neo flopped back onto the seat. She sighed and looked around. She folded her hands in her lap, but fidgeted her thumbs and feet. She sighed and readjusted to her hands and knees and hovered her face over Jester's. She smiled and tiled her head. "Don't fall asleep on me. I'm Bored." She poked his chin. This is how she was. If she didn't get as she wanted she would become annoying. A Trait she gained from her mother. She sighed and fell back sitting on the seat. She pulled her feet up under her and drummed her fingers on the table. She hummed softly. She looked around the place. She rolled her eyes. One day she wouldn't have to be in places like this. Because they will no longer exist. She leaned back sliding down in the booth. She swung her legs up on the table. She crossed her feet and looked at the ceiling. Trying to count the tiles.

Jester sighed as he watched Neo. "Rosethorn, you need to calm down" He chuckled as he tugged on the chain around his neck "I would be more energetic if you took off the chain" He chuckled and shrugged smiling big at her. "But than again, we probably wouldn't be able to get food here if you did" He shook his head smiling at her than looked to the other two girls than looked back to Neo. He seemed to relax again, but in reality he was tensed, he didn't like the way the one girl looked at them. He pulled his hood farther over his eyes to make sure no one could see where he was looking, than he put his hands into his pockets grabbing one of his knives just in case. He pulled at the chain in a way to let Neo know to be careful.

Vyolette looked at the girl and smiled, "Yeah but its ok, it happens more than you would think." she smiled and threw the ticket in the serving box. "Order." She walked over to the 2 at the table and put on her biggest smile, "What can I get for you tonight?" she knelt down and set the note pad on the table. She hadn't seen them before but she was used to shady characters coming in all the time. Jub was a shady character him self, so naturally other shady people came to eat here; but then again that all that seemed to be left in Gotham now.

Wisti turns and goes to a table. Her phone goes off again. "Dad" she whispers to herself. She presses the talk button. "What?" she answers. "No im not going to the meeting thats your job." she listens a moment. " You can look for me all you want, but you'll never find me." she stops again. " Its just like a cat and mouse game isn't it. except its flipped, you want the cat? The mouse is gonna have to work extra hard." her eyes form the shape of a cats eyes, with that she hangs up. Stomping on her phone, crushing it completely. She looks at the waitress and smiles, "Can you throw this out back in the ally?" she pulls out a wad of money and hands it to the girl.

Neo smiled at the waitress that came over. She was about to order when the girl went on tangent. She watched her and tilted her head to one side. "Seems yer havin some..." She smiled and took a soft breath. "..Troubles." She chuckled softly and looked back at the waitress while she pulled a napkin from the holder. "umm i want a cheeseburger.. And a heaping pile of fries." She started folding the napkin in weird angles. She glanced at Jester. "Pet, tell the nice girl what you want." She smiled and completely shut the rest out focusing on her napkin.
