Chapter 2: Episode 1 part 2

At the Clocktower, Barbra, Dinah, Helena and Alfred, who was carrying tea, gathered. "The Joker escaped from prison." Helena pointed out, "How? When? Where is he now?"

Dinah coughed to get Helena's attention, "I saw it in my vision last night. Joker shot Dr. Quinzel in between the eyes and I think she told him everything."

"That means he is probably going to attack the most vulnerable of us, that means Alfred might be the first target," Barbra stated, "and since Helena got kicked out of her apartment, she will be staying with you Alfred."

During the staff meeting, it was announced that the restaurant was being expanded and that Helena would have to move out because of it. Despite losing her apartment, she still had unresolved issues with her dad. "Uh Uh, No way! Can't you do it?"

"Nope! Except the entrance to the Batcave, Wayne Manor is nothing but stairs and well…" Barbra pointed out.

"What about Dinah, can't she stay?" Helena said.

"Can I please?" Dinah asked excitedly

"No, I am not leaving you, Dinah to fight a madman who defeated six meta-vigilantes." Barbra ansewered.

"I can handle it." Dinah tried to reason.

"At the same time." Barbra finished.

"To be frank, miss Helena and master Bruce both have a hard time being persuaded, and can hardly be stopped when they make up their minds." Alfred injected.

Before Helena could respond, the Delphi system started acting up. "It's Reese, the Old Gotham Airport." Barbra announced.

"I'm on it, and my living conditions are not settled." Helena said as she grabbed her new mask and left.

"This is not over is it?" Dinah asked.

Alfred and Barbra nodded their heads.

At the Old Gotham Airport, Reese was at a far enough distance when Huntress popped up right behind him and tapped him on the shoulder. "You know I am completely used to you popping out of nowhere Huntress." Reese said as he turned around only for Helena to vanish and come up behind him and tap his shoulder again surprising Reese.

"I need to keep the element of surprise otherwise it wouldn't be fun, so what do you got?" Huntress said in a mixture flirtasciousness and seriousness.

"Airplane pilot from Alaska," Reese started, "there was no contact from the plane and the only reason we know about the incident is because of three teens that snuck in."

"This may be the work of the Joker…" Helena started.

"… who escaped from his prison in Alaska a little over 12 hours ago." Reese finished.

Helena gave Reese a look that asks 'how do you know that?'

"The commissioner has put me and McNally on the case to catch this guy." Reese admitted.

"Anything else that I should know?" Helena asked.

"The victim died with a smile on his face and former police commissioner Jim Gordon is tagging along in the pursuit of the Joker."

Though Helena's comset, Barbra is trying to get her attention "Get my dad out of the investigation."

"Oracle is not thrilled about him joining the investigation and is asking that he not join." Helena relayed to Reese.

"I tried Huntress…" Reese stated

9 hours earlier.

Former Commissioner Gordon enters Commissioner Montoya's office. "Detective Jessie Reese, former Commissioner Jim Gordon, he will be helping you and McNally catch the Joker before he causes trouble." Commissioner Montoya ordered as she left, leaving the former commissioner and Reese to get acquainted.

Reese and Gordon shook hands. "Jim Gordon."

"Jesse Reese," he greeted back, "Hey, is your daughter Barbra Gordon?"

"Why yes she is, and I take it that you're the one going out with Helena?"

"Yeah," Reese answered until he thought of something, "Does, Barbra know you're back on temporary duty?"

"I'd prefer that she doesn't know, or maybe a little secret of your past may comeback." Gordon responded.

"Like what a psycho ex-girlfriend?" Reese laughed.

Slowly Gordon put his hand on Reese's shoulder. "You're the son of Al Hawk, and I know this because the cop that pulled you over that one time was a friend of mine." Gordon whispered into his ear, leaving Reese stunned.

Back in the present, Reese had told Huntress of his encounter. "Well then, there is nothing we can really do now can we." Huntress stated.

Oracle overhearing this decided to inject herself into the conversation, "Yes there is."

"Oracle!" Huntress yelled in her intercom Now focusing on Reese, "Anything else that I should know about?"

"Yes, there are some old cameras located around the airport; however, the quality might be questionable." Reese answered.

"I'll have Oracle look into it." Helena said while she was leaving until she remembered something, "Oh, are we still on for Saturday." Reese nods as Huntress vanishes as Gordon approaches seeing Huntress.

Meanwhile at Arkham Asylum, two guards talking with each other. "Hey! Did you see the game last night?"

"Yeah, the Central City Impact had no chance." Suddenly someone in a long trench coat and a wide hat concealing his face shows up. "Hey you! Visiting hours are over."

"Oh! Sorry it has been a long time since I have been here; maybe I should do things the old fashioned way." In a split second after saying that the man in the trench coat pulled out a silenced gun and shot the two guards in the head killing them both. He takes off his hat revealing his face as the Joker. "Now then, on to my shopping list."

Joker digs through his pockets and finds a small sheet of paper revealing a list of three inmates. "Perfect." Joker walks into the cell blocks.
