The Twelve year old's kitten paw feet ticked as the tap shoes touched the sidewalk.
"Wait aren't you?"
"Yes i am!" The girl's feet did a jig, as she used her caine/umbrella to whirl like a Dervish, accept Ginger Roger
style.
" Well don't look so daft, lil man you're the one who called me." said the girl as she flipped back the curls that beared her name.
"I never asked for Shirley Temple to come down from the sky on an umbrella." replied The star as he rubbed his eyes, believing that she was either a peice of lint in his contacts or a slice of undigested beef.
"No, but you did say you would do anything, right? Betrayal, loss, revenge those are all Shirley's bag baby...I mean the Devil's Game." She stretched out her tiny porcelian hand and added, I am The Morning Star at your service."
The troubled star went through every thought in between 'The devil Is Shirley Temple' and 'i gotta stop drinkin', till he stretched out his hand and replied, "My name is Heath Ledger and i want to be the Joker."
She dipped into a curtsy, as she grasped his hand and shook it rather roughly.
"So. You want to be the joker. Oh my goodness," she was smiling and the light danced on her curls every time she moved.
He was mesmerized as he watched her, "Um, yes," he had look away to gain control over his thoughts. "The Joker. In Batman. The movie."
"Oh," she deflated a tiny bit, "That joker. I was ready to call in a favor from Lucy." She sighed. "Either way," she shrugged, "Ready to bargain?"
"Bargain," Heath raised a brow, "You do that? I mean, I didn't realize there would be negotiations. I thought I would tell you what I wanted. You'd tell me what you got in return. I accepted and that was that. The end. So to speak. Well, actually. The end," he frowned and forced himself to look at her again. "Period."
"Are you done?" She shook her head again, "Of course there are negotiations, but in the end I get what I want." She grinned, "So," she rubbed her hands together, "What'll it be? Your soul or your first born?"
"Wait aren't you?"
