AN: Sorry for the wait. Here's yet another chapter!

I shit you not when I say I do not own any of these characters. The only one I do own is Katrina McCoy.

So yeah, sorry for the long wait to those who are reading this story! I just had a rough time figuring out how to make this chapter

And thanks to all my reviewers! You guys are awesome!

Within the dimly lit room, Doctor Leland smiled reassuringly at the two girls standing behind her, trying to separate them from the other, more dangerous inmates. Standing next to the young doctor, the females in the Arkham uniforms were as different as night and day.

One had long blond hair, bright baby blue eyes, and a nice figure. She had the look of a lamb in a slaughter house as she gazed upon the people before her. She was Alice Pleasence. Once the everyday hard working secretary at one of the many Wayne Enterprises buildings, has now found herself in Arkham. She prayed silently to herself that she'd wake up next to her Billy. No. Not Billy, preferably by herself. Even thinking of the man she agreed to spend the rest of her life with brought a shiver down her spine. A black and blue mark around her small wrists reminded her of what had happened. Alice was forced to realize, this wasn't a dream, and she sure as hell wasn't in Wonderland.

The woman standing next to her was different, however. Katrina had no indication of fear on her slim face. In fact she appeared quite expressionless. Her green eyes seemed to be shifting thoughts that Alice herself wouldn't dare to think. Almost as tall as the blond woman was, Katrina was a bit on the thin side with long brown hair. Alice knew Katrina since kindergarten, even then they had different tastes in things. The blond was from the city, and the brunette from the country. While Alice would stay home and study, she knew Katrina would be out somewhere partying and then have some excuse for not doing it. Alice was into reading and writing, Katrina was into, well, partying, but she was also a hunter. That was one quality that set them apart, at first. Katrina could kill. Kill without showing any guilt or remorse for what she had done. Kind of like she is now.

"Why don't you two sit down in the two seats over there?" Leland ordered in a question, pointing towards the metal seats in the circle.

Alice looked down at her slipper clad feet and nodded slowly. She could feel a knot in her throat as she tried not to cry. Katrina just shrugged and walked ahead, Alice followed closely. Upon reaching the small group of inmates, Alice walked a little quicker towards one of the seats. Sitting down on the nearest seat, Alice kept her head down to avoid eye contact. Katrina sat next to her.

Across from the two of them, Jervis couldn't help himself when his blue eyes came across the woman that had changed his entire life for. Seeing her in the state she was in now, he couldn't help but pity her. So many questions flew through his mind.

Without much notice, Leland made her way to her own chair.

"Why don't we start off today's session with our two new ladies," Leland stated as she crossed her ankles, "Alice, why are you here again?"

The blond looked down at her feet as she kicked them slowly, back and forth.

"Alice will you please look up from the floor and tell us what happened in your life that brought you to Arkham."

Leland's brown eyes met with Alice's blue ones as the blond glanced up at the doctor.

"I didn't do anything..." She whispered.

"Just like everyone else, here, eh Alice?" Katrina growled. In a quieter voice, she murmured. "Just tell them what the hell happened to make them all happy."

"I...I don't really recall..." Alice's voice trailed off as she wracked her mind to bring up the events of what occurred during the last week.

"Think hard, Alice," Leland spoke calmly. "The first step to healing is admitting what you did wrong."

"You sound like my AA instructor!" Katrina snapped. "It's hard for the poor girl to relive a traumatic experience in her own mind, let alone sharin' it with other... inmates."

"That's what group therapy is about, Katrina." Leland countered. "To let everything out. Besides, what happens in therapy-"

"Stays in the news media! Sorry doc, but I don't think you'll get a word from Ally till she's ready to give you a word."

"What about yourself Miss McCoy? You seem to want to talk. What are you doing here in Arkham?"

Katrina crossed her legs, leaned back in the chair, and crossed her arms above her head.

"I didn't do anything, either." She broke into fits of laughter.

30 minutes later...

"Alright, everyone go back to your cells. I'll see you in a few weeks." Leland groaned rubbing the bridge of her nose as she watched to make sure the guards were escorting them away from her office.

Alice kept her eyes glued to the floor. She glanced up when Katrina knocked into her.

"You need to learn to speak up more, you know that?"

"Sorry..." Alice said softly.

"That's it though!" Katrina shouted. "You're always sorry! Even when that Hatter guy tried to-"

"Please don't say anything bad about Jervis!" Alice snapped glaring at her only friend in the Asylum. Looking ahead of her, she noticed a familiar figure walking a few feet away, escorted by two guards who were almost twice his size. Seeing the expression on the blond girl's face, Katrina mimicked her and saw who she was staring at.

"Hey isn't that-"

"Yes, Katrina!" Alice growled. "That's Jervis."

"He looked scarier on TV."

"He's not an intimidating person."

"Bet you twenty bucks he scared you that day!"

The guards leading the two women looked down at them and then at each other.

"Hey, Randy and Luke!" One of the guards called. "Bring that Tetch fella over here for a minute. I think these ladies wanna chat with him for a minute."

Alice could feel herself begin to shake. Her mouth went dry and her palms began to sweat. The only noise she could hear was her own heart as Randy and Luke looked towards them. She could have sworn there was something against him being near her. After all, she was the reason he was here, wasn't she?

"You know damn well we cant allow these crazies to associate with each other off schedule!" Randy or Luke shouted.

"Yeah," The other one added. "Bartholomew will have a fuck'n fit! Remember what the Joker did last time we were in charge of these nut jobs?"

"Sorry, girls," One of their guards said. "Guess you'll have to wait until tomorrow before you can chat with the Mad Hatter. You three have wreck time I do believe."

AN: Well thanks again to all those who have read this! The next chapter will be up soon! For real this time! I promise!
