Sapphire chuckled. "Yeah, and I don't know how he does it. Sure doesn't pay my bills." she replied. Then paused for a moment in thought. "Matter of fact, I'm homeless at the moment. My building was pretty much rolled over with everything I owned in it. My cat, clothes, costumes, money, everything."

C.J. stopped to think a little moment, and pow! An idea sparked! "Actually, I think I may have a solution." he said. Of course, he was thinking about Dundee's hookup with the circus. All he had to do was talk Dundee into letting them stay on the train! How hard could it be? Of course, after taking his licks from Batman and the GCPD, he should be alright enough to ask . . . right?

Misty blinked then looked over at him. "You do?" she asked.

C.J. smiled. "When you're out on your own, it pays to know some durn good friends. Just . . . you don't have a problem with circuses, do you?" he asked. Well, at least he isn't a lion tamer.

Misty blinked back at him. "Circuses?" she asked. Honestly she didn't know that there were any that were still around.

C.J. smirked. "A couple friends of mine stay on a circus train . . . one of 'em works on there as a mechanic, and we usually get to chill on there for free." he said. He then stopped to think. "I honestly don't think they'd have any problem settin' a cutie like you up with a place to stay."
Oh, BROTHER!!

Misty looked back at him and her cheeks turned a light shade of pink again. "I..." she began, then stopped and looked past him at the door.
Through the little window, she noticed one of the doctors and someone with a blue and black hat on. Gold letters running across the front of it. The man in the hat didn't look very happy at all.

C.J. smiled at her, but then he saw him, too. A bolt of fear struck him. I'm DEAD!!!! he thought. Hey, I did NOT put the "HE'S IN HERE" sign up. You are NOT blaming this on me!! NO WAY, man! You are ON YOUR OWN!!!
"Now SHUT UP a second, writer! I have a plan! I have . . . wait, hey, other writer . . . Innocent Little Rosie, was it? Hey, listen, we're in a tight spot. I mean tighter than possibly Deadpool finding out my fourth wall powers is a direct knockoff of HIS powers. Is there a way out that doesn't involve talking to the police officer that wants to incarcerate my a**?" he asked the other writer, pulling out the puppy-dog eyes.
"Please?"

The doctor on the other side of the door continued to talk to the man, and motioned towards the door.
Well, there is a window next to the bed, but the front desk already warned about security cameras. Suppose you could sneak out if you really wanted to. Not too much of a drop with Sapphire there to help you out."

"Oy . . . this is NOT gonna look too good."
C.J. looked over the side. Then at the camera . . . then at the COP, and then back at Misty. Letting go of her hand he smiled. Taking a deep breath, he seemed to have a change in persona, a little less of the goofball Bandit, and a little more suave, a little more of a Gentleman Rogue.
"Forgive me for having to depart, my dear. But I'll come back for you." he said, scrawling out his cell phone number on a piece of paper, sliding it into her hand. "I promise." And here . . . he did the most surprising thing. That this writer has even been confused.
He kissed her passionately. At the same time, somehow pulled out a can of spray-paint, and hit the camera.
"Would love to . . . but what about th- ?! I guess they mail those out." he said to the writers.
Uhh . . . hey, Casanova? I think the cop's about to go for the door. Whatever you do right now, DO IT FAST!!!!

Misty watched him scrawl down the number and smiled a bit as she took it. Well...whatever happened between them, it must have been something. It was rather akward that she had no familiarity like he had with her. But at least he seemed to-
And then he kissed her. Not just kissed her, but....KISSED her. She hadn't been prepared for either, and was caught completely off guard. Her eyes wide open, and just sort of staring. Her heart racing and her mind going to about a million different places at once.
The next moment the door clacked open as the GCPD stepped inside.

C.J. broke the kiss when he heard the door open. "So long, sugar. Get well soon." he said with a coy smile, then looked over at the cop, opening the window.
"Alas, officer. Remember this as the day you ALMOST had C.J. Benoit! LOOK OUT BELOW!!" he yelped, jumping out of the window.
"Uhh, writer?" C.J. asked, hopping over the fourth wall.
Yes?
"Are you aware that we BOTH are afraid of HEIGHTS?"
Uh-huh.
"Well, after that moment of sly badassery (is that a word?), I just JUMPED OUT OF A HOSPITAL."
Well, theoretically, that was not my idea. YOU jumped out.
"So what do I do now?!"
SCREAM!!!
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-HOO-HOO-HOOOOIEEEE!!!!!
((Exit towards Gotham City!!))

The officers growled out something as the man jumped out the window. Misty just sat there on the bed, still staring at the wall with wide eyes as the two ran past her and to the window.
When CJ's scream finally made it to the window, she blinked and shook her head. Finally snapping herself back and realizing that he had just jumped out the window without her help.
She gasped and turned herself around to face the window. Thankfully the police's attention was outside, and CJ had already taken care of the security camera. She didn't need glowing blue eyes as more evidence for the anti-vigilante people in the building.

Boooooiiing!!!
Fortunately, whatever happened down there, broke C.J.'s fall. "Thanks fer breakin' my fall!" he said with a smile. "To run or not to run . . . hey, what should I do now? Go get her or save my own a**?" he asked the writers.
Well you know my vote. You wanted to get outta there, now you can risk arrest and save her, or run like hell.

And the police were giving CJ their vote as well. The two that were standing at the window drew their guns and aimed them down at the window jumper. One officer called down to the others that were still around their cruisers on his radio. The other shouted something down at CJ, then fired warning shots around him.
Some of the officers that were inside the main lobby of the hospital ran out to try and catch up to CJ before he could get much further. A few jumped back into their cars just in case they needed to chase after him.
The cop that had been on the radio turned and looked over at Misty. She had been watching the two of them, and looked over at the officer with a frown. He gave her a bit of a look, then noticed the costume hanging over a nearby chair. His frown grew more as he looked over at her.
She frowned and glanced over at her costume. When she glanced back over at him, he had already pulled out a pair of handcuffs and was walking towards her bed. Her eyes widened and she moved to get out of the bed. She heard a gun click and looked over to find another officer guarding the door. She stopped and stared at him as the other snapped her right wrist into the cuff, then snapped the other one onto the side of the bed.
