Prologue
"And we have one more member to discuss." Amanda Waller stated over her plate of steak to her two male colleagues. She pulled out another file, opening it to a mugshot of a young girl with frizzy blonde hair and striking yellow eyes.
It stated the basics, like her height as 67.2 inches, weight being 135 pounds, eye color, and hair color. It also listed her list of offences and previous jail time, all three being served at Arkham Asylum. And all three times she managed to escape.
"Electrisha, previously known as Alisha Quinzel. One of the most powerful recruits I have here. She's also the youngest." It was almost a compliment, if it wasn't coming from Amanda Waller.
"Quinzel? Isn't that the same name as the Joker's girlfriend?" The male colleague on the left asked.
"Exactly. But this seventeen year old holds enough power to charge half of New York. She's a direct descendent of a metahuman on her mom's side, and while she needs some training with her powers, she will make a perfect fit for this team." Waller paused, looking as though she was holding something back. "There are a few...complications with this one."
"Which are�"
"She's currently not in our custody. She's also the Joker's favorite weapon, and you and I both know how he is about sharing his toys."
"Why is she with the Joker? And how do you expect us to get her to join this team if you do not have her in prison?" The other man asked in annoyance, clearly not seeing how this girl was going to work in this project.
"Going back to sharing the same last name as Harleen Quinzel, the two are actually half sisters." Amanda explained impatiently, frustrated that she now had to explain this girl's entire story.
"Their parents died about eight years ago-"
"Died from?"
"No clue, now do you mind if I finish?" She snapped, shooting metaphorical daggers through her eyes at the man who interrupted her. He raised his hand slightly in mock surrender, waving at her to continue.
"After the parents died, they were murdered," Waller looked pointedly at the man, "Harleen took custody of Alisha. When Harleen decided to join crazy town, Alisha was fourteen. I've heard different stories on how Alisha tagged along, three different ones from Alisha herself-" Waller held up a finger towards the other man who was about to interrupt her.
"But the one that seems the most likely is Joker used Harley as an ultimatum; either Alisha could go off on her own and never see her sister again, or she could join her and Joker in their circus. Considering how close the two were, it was pretty obvious why she would take option two."
"But this is just an assumption, correct?" The man who interrupted her first asked.
"An assumption based off various stories I have heard."
"Wait, I figured knowing this kid's name was because of her time with Joker but you saying you've spoken with her before confirmed something else for me. This kid was a part of another failed project of yours, isn't she?"
"Well, she was a part of the Teen Titans," Waller got cut off by the two men groaning.
"Teen Titans? Really Waller? This kid was the one who got them broken up. Not to mention she's probably one of the main reasons Batman is short his Robin."
"She joined despite having the threat of the Joker finding out." Waller snapped, "Meaning there's a good chance this kid still has some good left in her. She was also the most promising member of the team, so she will work well in this new project."
"Oh yeah? Well how do you suspect we get her to even be on this project when we have no clue where she is?"
"I have a plan." Waller smirked, taking a bite of her steak before continuing, "Her and Joker have been reckless lately, searching everywhere for that precious Harley." She chuckled, shaking her head mockingly. "And I think I know the perfect bait to get her close enough for us to catch."
A/N: Hey everyone! Thank you so much for reading. Just a fair warning, a lot of Electrisha's background is not comicbook canon (mainly because she's an OC) such as being a part of teen titans and other things from her and Harleen's past. I'm just having fun with it, so please keep that in mind :) Also, most of this story will take place during suicide squad, but some earlier chapters will not.
let me know what you think, how you think i can improve, and what things you would like to see in this story.
Thanks again!
