Belle Reve Penitentiary

Erin Scott's Point of View

Looking in at my mother swirling from the bars of her cell broke my heart. I had only ever seen my mother once before in the flesh and it was getting harder and harder. My mothers name was Harleen Qunizel but these days she is better know as Harley Quinn the lover and sidekick of The Joker. From what I had heard my mother was once a smart and well educated woman until the day she volunteered to analysis The Joker at work. After that day she was never the same and before long she had given up everything to be with him, including me.

"I can help make this right." A whisper came from beside me.

Turning around I saw a man shadowed in black. There was something odd about him, but I was intrigued.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"I can send you back, back to before Harley Quinn existed. You could prevent it from happening, make her be your mother again." The voice said.

"You mean like to the past? You can send me back in time?" I smirked.

I didn't believe in things like that. I mean I had seen strange and dangerous powers before but never time travel.

"I do not lie Erin." The voice scolded.

"Ok so say what you are saying is true…I could have a mom, my mom back?" I asked, suddenly feeling hopeful despite my better judgement.

"Look at her, that man will come for her again it is only a matter of time. You know what he does to her you know how he treats her. You can set thing right, make her right again not this mess." The voice sighed as mom stared to yell abuse at the guards.

"Do you think it will work?" I asked.

"Only one way to find out." The voice said again.

"Who are you? Why do you want to do this for me?" I pressed.

Finally stepping out of the shadows I saw Deadshot, but not the Deadshot of my time an older version.

"Deadshot?" I gasped.

"How I mean what?" I sighed in confusion.

"Just trust me kid ok?" He replied.

Slowly I found myself nodding in response.

"Ok then, lets work on a plan." He grinned…..


Arkham Asylum

2015

Erin Scott's Point of View

As I walk down the dark corridor of Arkham Asylum I don't know what to expect. Everything is different than I imagined and I find it hard to believe the place even exists despite it being the past for me.

I had travelled back in time with the help of my new/old friend and his powers. My main mission was to find my mother, someone who had disappeared from my life 3 months after I was born. My mothers name was Harleen Quinzel and she was training to be a psychiatrist when she had me. However that all changed when she volunteered to look after one very different patient, who called himself The Joker. The Joker brainwasher my mother and made her fall madly in love with her so much so that she left her daughter and her husband or so I thought.

"Excuse me do you have a visitors pass?" A guard asked me as I passed him on the corridor.

"Um no I'm looking for a doctor here….Harleen Quinzel?" I replied.

The guard eyed me suspiciously.

"You look like her are you her sister or something?" He pressed.

"Or something….." I trailed off.

"Well you can't go wandering around this place some very dangerous people around. Sit here and I will find Doctor Quinzel for you." The guard instructed.

I made my way over to the seat he pointed to and sat down. A few seconds later and a bubbly blonde doctor rounded the corner. The guard pointed her in my direction.


As she walked towards me I couldn't believe I was looking at my mother, a younger, none crazy version. This was Harleen Quinzel and not the notorious Harley Quinn of my time. I was amazed at how alike we looked and found myself staring in awe and my mother cleared her throat to gain my attention.

"Hi, I was told you requested to speak with me?" She smiled.

"Yeah I did, I mean I do want to talk to you. My name is Erin…..Scott. Erin Scott." I replied nervously.

"Ok Erin Scott, what is it you would like to know?" Mom asked.

"Can we go somewhere more private?" I questioned.

"I don't want to sound crazy." I added.

"Crazy isn't a word we like to use in here." Mom scolded.

"Well you might reconsider when you hear what I have to say." I mumbled.

After a hesitant few moments I was finally led to my mothers office.


Mom closed the door carefully behind us and offered me a seat. As I sat down my mother took the seat opposite.

"Ok what is it you need to tell me?" She said.

"I'm from the future." I blurted out.

I could see the doctor in my mom come out as she tried to judge if I was imagining things or I was lying to her. From her confused look I could tell she didn't know which option was true.

"The Future?" She pressed.

"Look I know how this must sound….I mean I can hear what I'm saying and I would think I was crazy…..mad you know what I mean!" I rambled.

"Look Erin I don't have time for this if you are just…." Mom began to say but I cut her off.

"I'm your daughter and I'm here to stop you becoming Harley Quinn. I know you have a patient here who calls himself The Joker and I know you want to study him but please, please don't he will turn you crazy!" I pleaded with her.

My mom was in a stunned silence as she stared at me. The longest five minutes of my life passed as she tried to come up with a response. Finally she found one, though it wasn't what I was expecting.

"I don't have a daughter." She stated.

I was confused. By my calculations from dad I should have been at least three months old. Dad always told me mom went straight back to work after I was born because she was training to be a doctor.

"Yeah you do you named me Erin and I was born 3 months ago in your time. This is 2015 isn't it?" I asked.

"I don't have a daughter I think I would know. I don't even have a husband or boyfriend to make that possible!" Mom cried.

I could feel myself begin to panic I didn't know what was happening. My plan was crumbling before it had even started. I could tell she wasn't lying to me, she wasn't wearing a wedding ring and dad told me they were married.

"Do you know a man called Eugene Scott?" I finally asked.

A small smile crossed moms face.

"Yeah he was my best friend in high school I haven't seen him in 2 years." Mom reminisced.

"How do you know him?" She asked.

"He's my dad or at least I think he is but he always said you were my mother….." I explained.

"How old are you 16/17 years old? How could I possibly be you mother in 25." Mom said with a kind smile.

I could tell she felt sorry for me and given the chance she would have had a great beside manner. Mom got up and walked over to stand in front of me.

"Look could you please do a DNA test or something. I promise you I'm not lying and I need you to believe me for my plan to work." I begged.

"A DNA test you want me to run a DNA test using your DNA and mine?" Mom asked.

I nodded.

"If I do this will you let me treat you? Help you with your parents or whatever problems are making you think you are in the past?" Mom offered.

"I promise I will let you help me." I smiled.

"Ok good the follow me." Mom said as she pulled me to my feet.


As I followed mom to the lab in the Asylum I dangerous thought crossed my mind. If she wasn't married to or hadn't seen my apparent dad in 2 years did that mean I wasn't really his daughter? And if I wasn't his was I the daughter of the clown himself?

"Here we are." Mom said as she pushed open the door.

Shaking off the nasty thoughts I followed her inside as we both gave our DNA samples.

Hope you enjoyed, please let me know your thoughts :-)
