Bruce and Harley had been left in the same warehouse for what felt like a week now, they occasionally saw The Joker every now and then but he never made the effort to talk to them or even torture then. Bruce had known the Joker long enough to know that was unusual behaviour, he had a bad feeling about this. He began to notice that Harley looked at the Joker in adoration whenever he was in the room.

"Harley you need to refrain from crawling back to him"

Harley didn't respond as she watch the Joker come into the room holding a bag of food, he grabbed a chair and sat down in front of Bruce and Harley. All he did was look at them eating what looked like a hamburger. Bruce starred back at him wondering why he was being so calm.

"What? You want some?" Joker asked holding the hamburger in front of Bruce's face.

"I do!" called Harley happily.

"I was asking bats you dumb blond" Joker growled smacking Harley in the back of the head.

"What you are you doing?" Bruce asked through a clench jaw "What do you want?"

"Oh I'm just waiting for someone very special" Joker said, he smiled and patted Bruce on the check.

They heard someone come through the door of the ware house, Joker stood up and smiled wider when he saw who was at the door "Karlo! Long-time, no see!"

"What do you want?" came clay faces deep voice.

"Aww no welcome back hug?"

"Just tell me what you want me to do"

"Ok ok, come 'ere" Joker said waving Clay face over to Alfred "I need you to impersonate this guy" Joker poked Alfred who was unconscious.

"Why would you want me to impersonate a butler?"

"Here I'll tell you" Joker said putting his arm over clay faces back, as Joker explained what they were doing to Clay face, Bruce could see Clay faces grin growing wider by the minute.

"I got a bad feeling about this" Bruce muttered

"He's so smart" Harley sighed as she stared at Joker

The Joker finished talking to Clay Face and went to the corner of the room where a metal bat was leaning against the wall. He picked it up and walked over to Bruce and Harley hitting it softly on his hand.

"Batter up" Joker chuckled as he slammed the bat into Bruce's temple and everything went black.

Bruce regained consciousness, he looked around drowsily at his surroundings. He was on a stage with a large crowd in front of it, all staring at him. He could feel that he was still restrained like before but it felt different, it was then that he realised he wasn't restrained by a chain but by a strait jacket. He looked around again. Harley was sitting next to him still unconscious and there were a number of seats on the side of the stage where Dr Leland, Commissioner Gordon and a few other doctors and officers. He continued to look at who was sitting there and his heart sank Dr Crane, Selina Kyle, two face, Alfred? and…Jack! Joker was wearing his disguise again and people actually believed him! Dr Crane stood up and walked to the podium in the middle of the stage.

"The human mind is extremely fragile, if you put too much pressure on it, it will snap" Crane explained snapping his fingers at the word snap "It was clear ever since his parents were murdered in crime alley that Bruce was mentally unstable. But because of his high authority and continuously insisting that he was mentally sound we have all decided to ignore it and look what's happened now, he's decided to take the law into his own hands by dressing up like a bat and beating the mentally ill within an inch of their life. Apparently he is on a crusade for justice but the way I see it and the way all of you should see it is he is on a crusade for revenge, he is making the mentally ill pay for things they have even done. These problems will not fix themselves, we must take action."

The crowd cheered in agreement, Bruce was shocked. Jack and 'Alfred' stood up and took Cranes place.

"I have worked for the Wayne family for many years, I gave them all of my loyalty. When Master Bruce's parents died I did everything in my power to prevent him from…" Alfred looked at Bruce "Turning into…this but now I realise I have failed and we all need to stop ignoring it and…put him in Arkham for the sake of everyone"

Jack then took the microphone.

"I hadn't worked for Master Bruce for long, only for about a month. I was honoured to serve the famous Bruce Wayne. Unfortunately to Master Wayne I resembled the homicidal mad man The Joker, after a while he started accusing me of being The Joker who we all know died one and a half years ago…"

Bruce interrupted him now seeing what Jack was doing "No this is the Joker and this is not Alfred Pennyworth it's Clay Face! How can you not see this?!" Jack sighed and nodded to two doctors that were sitting next to him.

"Take him to arkham" The doctors stood up and dragged Bruce into the back of a patient transport van. Soon after Harley was thrown in beside him. Crane sat in the driver's seat, Alfred sat in the passenger's seat and Jack climbed into the back of the van with Harley and Bruce.

"Please don't take me back to Arkham Jay !" Harley pleaded

"Shut up!" Jack yelled.

"Please baby, forgive me" Harley said curling up to Jack.

"Get off you stupid dame!" Jack said slapping Harley off of him, he turned to Bruce "So Bruce, how do you feel hm? Being declared legally insane"

"I'm not insane if anything I'm the sanest person on this planet" Bruce retorted

Jack laughed maniacally "You?! Sanest man on earth?! Oh please!" Jack wiped a tear from his eye as his laughter died down "You speak very highly of yourself don't you, as if the sanest man on earth would dress up like a bat every night!"

"I am strong, I can resist all the therapy and drugs you pump into me" Bruce said

"Oh I think we'll skip all that bull shit and go straight to shock therapy with you"

"Oh yay, I love electrocution! It's like a massage for your brain!" Harley squealed in excitement.

"See? Harley seems excited why aren't you?"

"You cannot break me, I am the night…"

Bruce was interrupted by Jack laughing "Do you know how fucking stupid you sound when you say that?! You're only confirming everyone's suspicions of your insanity"

"I'm not insane!"

"Sorry to break it you ya Bruce but you kinda are, I mean who willingly dress up like a bat?" Harley said

"Exactly Harley, Keep this up and I'll consider letting you help" Harley squealed with happiness.

They arrived at arkham Bruce was dragged thought the door, he never thought that he would be the person being dragged and Joker the one admitting him to Arkham, it was wrong. Jack pushed Bruce into the rec room where all the other inmates were but left him restrained.

"My dear inmates, this is my good friend batman. You guys can have as much fun with him as you want" Jack said leaving the room, he stopped at the door way "But don't kill 'im" he slammed the door leaving the room.

Jack stood behind the one way mirror grinning as he watched the inmates beat up the helpless Bruce Wayne. "Now that batman's out of the way, we can have some fun"
