Two Face: The Party
November 4 2016
A few days have passed since the raid, Rupert Throne's gang, were arrested thanks to Harvey Dent's help. However, on that night, Harvey showed a strange behaviour when one of the gang members mocked him, Harvey brutally beat the thug until the officers, including the commissioner and detectives, stopped him and Harvey finally snapped into reality.
His unexpected attack was all over the news, People were shocked when they heard the news and found it very odd, The people of Gotham knew Harvey wasn't a violent kind of person, But whatever happened must have ticked him off.
Reporter: What a wild night in East Gotham. Police intercepted and arm shipment, which District Attorney Harvey Dent is trying to connect to Rupert Thorne. . . . Unfortunately, Handsome Harvey, or the new nickname tonight, Hothead Harvey, when he unexpectedly attacked one of the suspects.
Rupert Throne was seen in his penthouse while watching the news as the reporter continued talking more about the incident. A blonde woman spoke to her boss while sitting on the couch and had a lollipop on her mouth.
This is Candice, She is Rupert Throne's partner, and both of them have been working together for some time.
Candice: Geez, that guy is crazy.
Rupert: Yeah, crazy like a fox. That little tantrum probably bought him another 10,000 votes.
Henchman: So how 'bout we see how far he can swim in that salmon suit?
Rupert: And bring the heat down on us even more?
Suddenly, Rupert had an idea and began laughing before he got up from the couch and spoke to his henchmen.
Rupert: Uh-uh. I want this one in my pockey, boys! We need to dig up some dirt on our dashing D.A. Something really juicy.
Candice: Well, I'm afraid that's going to be a problem. Dent's so clean that I don't think we can find dirt on him.
Rupert: I can trust you with that, Candice. Just stay on his tail, All men have something to hide. The brighter the picture, the darker the negative. . . .
He had a smirk on his face, Candice knew he was right and nodded her head in agreement. Now Candice needed to learn more about Harvey and possibly find something that he's hiding. . . .
[ Nine twenty-five p.m ]
At the Manor, Harvey decided to host a campaign party to raise funds for his election as Gotham's District Attorney, Anne, decided to help him and hosted the party at her manor.
Meanwhile, Bucky was seen in his room as he was trying out a new suit that Anne gave him for the party tonight.
He looked at himself and fixed his coat, It's been a long time since he wore a suit, but he really liked wearing it again. However, Bucky was a bit nervous since there were a lot of people arriving at the party, and he was hoping that he wasn't going to get recognised by anyone.
He looked at the comb and began combing his hair until he heard a knock on the door and heard Anne's voice.
Anne: Are you done now?
Bucky: Yeah, you can come inside.
Anne opened the door and walked inside to see Bucky as She had a smile on his face and admired the suit he was wearing.
Anne: It fits you very well.
Bucky: Thanks, I kinda like it.
Anne: I liked the colour a lot, That's why I bought it for you. You look handsome, though.
He chuckled at her compliment and smiled while looking at her.
Bucky: Thank you, Anne.
Anne: No problem, How do I look?
She spinned around and showed the long red dress she was wearing, Bucky admired her and had a huge smile on his face while watching her.
Bucky: Careful, Anne. You might steal everyone's heart in the party, including mine.
Anne chuckled and fixed her dress as Bucky continued staring at her with a smile on his face.
Anne: Thanks a lot, Everyone should be coming over in fifteen minutes. Let me fix your hair.
Bucky: It's fine, I got it.
She smiled and didn't listen to him as she grabbed the comb from his hand, Barnes just shrugged and sat on the bed as Anne began combing his hair, Bucky couldn't help but stare at Anne, admiring her beauty as she was combing the sides and the back of his hair.
She was done combing his hair as both of them smiled at each other as there were maids and servants that were arranging the party props as Anne and Bucky were watching them.
Thirty minutes passed as many guests arrived at the party, including Harvey Dent himself. He also brought his new girlfriend, Grace Lamont.
Everyone in the party was having drinks while talking to each other as Anne and Bucky were talking to each other until Harvey began his speech as everyone at the party was watching and listening to him.
Harvey: If we want this city safe again, then we have to come down hard on these criminals! I will not see the people of Gotham suffer and sit in silence while these criminals take over our beloved Gotham.
Everyone continued listening to him until Harvey's girlfriend, Grace, approached Anne as both of them smiled at each other.
Grace: Anne, it was so nice of you to sponsor this fundraiser for Harvey!
Anne: Well, Harvey and I go way back. He's a great D.A. and an even better friend. Though, lately, he seems awfully intense. Is he alright, Grace? That incident a few days ago. . . .
Grace: I think the pressure of the campaign gets to him sometimes, that's all.
Anne: Yeah, I guess so. Lately, he doesn't seem to be himself.
Anne looked at Harvey, who was giving his speech as Bucky was listening to Grace and Anne's conversation, He also agreed with what Anne said.
The speech was over as Harvey was seen talking to Grace, Both of them were smiling at each other as Harvey wrapped his arm around her while Grace blushed and smiled at him, Anne and Bucky were watching them with a smile on their face.
Until Harvey's assistant, Carlos, came running towards Dent, Dent's assistant looked a bit hesitant about what he was going to say now.
Carlos: Harvey, * pulls out a paper* You better look at this. The judge just threw out the case against Thorne's men.
Harvey looked shocked by what he said as Grace had the same reaction, Anne was listening to them while the other guests were staring at Harvey.
Harvey: But why?
Carlos: The warrant wasn't complete. The judge said he had no choice. He had to let them go.
Harvey: Had to!? But. . . . No!!!
Harvey ripped the paper as everyone was shocked, Dent grabbed Carlos's by the collar and shouted at his friend.
Harvey: I spent three months on that raid! He can't overturn! That fool! He's been blocked! Like all the rest!
Dent threw Carlos to the ground as everyone was shocked before Anne ran towards Harvey and grabbed his shoulder.
Anne: Harv! take it easy. This kind of behaviour doesn't go well! You need to relax-
Harvey glared at Anne and pushed her as Winters was shocked, and so was everyone in the room, Bucky's eyes widened as Harvey yelled at Anne.
Harvey: Get out of my way, You rich spolit brat!
Anne was shocked as Dent was about to slap Anne until Bucky ran and pushed Harvey as Dent finally snapped into reality and looked at Barnes, who was glaring at him.
Harvey realised what he did as Bucky looked like he wanted to punch Harvey, but Anne stopped him as Grace ran towards Harvey.
Grace: Harvey! Stop!
Harvey looked shocked as everyone was staring at him, Anne pulled Bucky a little back while holding his arm, He still continued glaring at Harvey as Dent was staring at the ground in shame.
Harvey: I. . . . I. . . I'm sorry. . I don't know what. . . . .
He just walked away as Grace looked concerned, Anne was confused by his sudden change and wondered what was going on with him. The people at the party were even more stunned as Grace immediately followed her boyfriend.
Unknown to them, Someone was watching the fight as She had a small smile on her face.
Soon, Harvey was seen at the living room as He was standing in silence while trying to process what happened, Dent couldn't believe what he was doing. He almost put his hand on a woman, especially to his best friend. He felt ashamed by what happened.
Grace walked in the living room with Anne while Bucky was standing and just watched them as Grace was about to speak to Harvey until he interrupted her by saying something.
Harvey: I just flew off the handle, That's all. . . . I've got it under control.
Anne: Harvey, you didn't just lose your temper out there. You were like another person!
Harvey: I said I was sorry!
Anne: Maybe you should get some help.
Harvey: No, I dont-
Grace: Darling, Listen to Anne. She's your best friend.
Harvey: But-
Anne: Don't be embarrassed. Lots of people see psychiatrists, Harv.
Harvey: Not when they're running for public office! You know how some voters feel about shrinks.
Anne: It takes a strong man to admit he has a problem.
Harvey was silent and was thinking about Anne's words, He sighed heavily and looked at her.
Harvey: Fine. . . Just don't tell anyone.
Anne: Don't worry, I know how to keep a secret.
Harvey: By the way. . . I know it's awkward, but I'm sorry for what I did.
Anne: *Places his hand on his shoulder* I forgive you, Harvey. Don't worry.
Harvey: I know, but I still feel guilty. . .
Anne: It's alright, Like I said, you should just visit a psychiatrist.
Harvey: *Sighs* Maybe you're right about that.
Grace: Don't worry, Harvey. I'm sure everything will be okay.
They shared a hug as Harvey took a deep breath and hugged his girlfriend, Anne had a small smile on her face before walking away as She looked at Bucky, who was looking at her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Harvey visited his psychiatrist, Nora Crest, and spoke about his problems, She noted his symptoms and knew something was wrong with him, However she had an idea. . . .
Harvey was sitting in the couch as Nora began hypnotising him as Harvey was staring blankly until he was fully hypnotised.
Nora: You are now in a deep sleep. Can you hear me?
Harvey was silent as Nora knew he was unconscious, She looked at Harvey and began speaking to him.
Nora: Good. Now, Harvey. I would like to speak with your other personality. I would like to talk with Big Bad Harv.
Harvey: . . . . .I don't think he wants to talk.
Nora: He must, if we are to help you. Please, try.
Harvey's posture changed and his expression slowly changed as Nora noticed his face and said something.
Nora: Big Bad Harv?
Harv: Speaking.
Nora: It appears you and Harvey are having trouble again.
Harv: The guy's a wimp.
Nora: Well, Harvey has special problems. When he was young, he felt very guilty about his angry feelings. So guilty, that he hid them deep inside until they became an illness. You, Big Bad Harv, represent this angry feelings.
Everyone feels anger and it does no harm; as long as it doesn't result in bad behavior. Once Harvey understands this. . .
Harv: *Flips the coin* Then maybe I'll go away. Right?
Nora was silent as Harv gritted his teeth and picked up the bottle that was next to him before throwing it at the wall.
Nora was shocked and startled as Harv got up and kicked the table, Nora began stepping back as Harv yelled at her.
Harv: I'm going nowhere, Missy!!
He grabbed the lamp and threw it at off the window as Nora was shocked and stepped back in fear before Harv gave an evil smirk to her.
He grabbed Nora's arm as Crest knew he was going out of control as she immediately snapped her fingers, Harvey was finally back to being himself as he looked around and noticed the broken window.
His eyes were widen as he saw the broken bottle's pieces on the ground, Harvey began stepping back in shock as he said something to her.
Harvey: Did I. . . Do this?
Nora: . . . Not you, but your other personality. It's stronger than I suspected.
Harvey: What am I gonna do? I've always been able to repress him before.
Nora: Harvey, I want you to admit yourself to the psychiatric ward over County General for a few days.
Harvey: No way, doc. You know I'm trying to get re-elected.
Nora: You're also trying to save your sanity.
Harvey: Isn't there any other way? Please!
Nora: Well, I suppose if you cut back on campaigning and intensify our sessions, we might be able to-
Harvey: Great! I'll do it! You just set up the schedule and I'll be here. Just so long as we keep all this a secret.
Nora sighed and looked at him before they both shook hands, But unknown to them, Candice was outside the door and heard the commotion as she had a smirk on her face before walking away.
A/N: Thank you so much for reading and stay strong!!! :)
