Harley Quinn's Revenge

4

6 months later...

Batman picked one of the guards up. "What do you mean 'he got away'?"

The guard feared for his life. "I'm sorry. I...I shoulda been more careful. He attacked me with his dinner tray and knocked me out."

Batman was frustrated as once again the Joker had managed to escape. "This doesn't get out!"

...

The Joker walked down an alley in the far side of town. He had killed a guy for his hooded sweatshirt to keep his face hidden. He just wanted to be alone. He reached in the pocket and pulled out a pack of cigarettes and lit one. He knelt behind a dumpster and began to smoke it. "God that feels nice." He blew smoke rings and smiled. Thoughts of how he would start over with new henchmen and build his way back up crossing his mind. A part of him wondered why Harley had allowed herself to get shot and killed. Bats had told him she didn't survive the operation to remove the bullets. "Oh Harls I thought you were stronger than this." He was never one for feeling upset over a woman but he had invested so much time in his Harley and making her his evil queen. He wiped the tear from his cheek and tossed the cigarette into a puddle. He stood up and began to walk towards the docks. He spotted someone standing by the water alone. This could be fun... He thought to himself. He decided to entertain himself and crept behind the person and stabbed them before shoving them into the icy water. He turned and walked away from the water.

...

Harley made her way back into Ivys place. Ivy observed she was soaking wet. "What the hell happened to you?"

Harley chuckled. "I decided to go for a swim." She changed into sweats then walked over to Ace who was asleep on her purple blanket until she sensed her mothers presence. "Hello my sweet girl." Ace crawled over to her mother.

"You're strange Harley..."

"Actually I was sitting on the edge of the dock like usual when I was shoved into the water. I didn't see anyone or sense them coming. Kinda funny Ya know? It came out of nowhere." Harley sat on the floor with Ace and hugged her. "Next time I go out I'm going to watch my back. I would like to choke the person or thing who did this to me."

Ivy shook her head. "You hungry? I already fed squirt some noodles and you gave her the pigs blood before you left so she should be good for the night."

"I'm starved. How about pizza?"

"You always want pizza. You are going to turn into a pizza eventually." She joked.

"I can't help it Red it's what I love." They both smiled.

...

Oswald Cobblepot sat inside his Ice berg Lounge having a smoke when he was taken down from behind. "What the hell?"

"Shut it Cobblepot." Batman held him. "Now where is he?"

"I beg your pardon?"

"The monster... Where can I find it?" Batman said in his dark voice.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

Batman put his hand on his throat and squeezed. "I'll ask one last time... Where is the beast?" He tossed him across the room.

Cobblepot laughed. "Oh Bats, I'm afraid you're mistaken. Who told you I was associated with this 'beast' you speak of?"

"Who do you think?"

"Joker? He's always putting the blame on others."

"Go figure. I'll be watching you and don't think twice about warning it. I will find and destroy this monster." He punched him in the face before jumping out the window.

"Stupid nosy bat...always getting in my business." He spat a mouthful of blood then went to the wall and opened a secret door and stepped inside. A dark figure approached him.

"Mister Cobblepot... What business did that creature have in wanting myself?"

"Well after he, the batman, cured Harley and killed the Joker he has not stopped searching for the so called beast behind the transformation."

"Cured? Is that so?"

"Well Miss Quinn busted out of Arkham not even a week after being 'cured' and no one has heard from her since."

"Indeed. I must say there is no cure for what's within my blood. You should know."

"What are you suggesting?"

"Miss Quinn can't have gone far. We must find her and bring her back. I'm giving you that assignment and should you fail I'll have your head. Understand?"

"Of course." He left the room and went back to running his business.

...

Jonathan Crane entered the lounge and sat down to have a drink.

"What brings you here Johnny? How's the scaring business?"

He rolled his eyes. "For the last time it's not a business, it's a career. Fear. It's what I live for." He took a shot.

"If you say so. Anything interesting happen lately?"

"Not exactly. I ran into Pamela last week. She was shopping."

Cobblepot looked up from wiping his bar. "Oh...she hasn't made an appearance in quite some time. What was she shopping for?"

"Clothes. Very small outfits."

"Really now? Would this perhaps be for a little one?"

"What makes you think that?"

"I don't think she wears such small clothing."

"Yeah but the baby might...uh fuck. I gotta get going." He stood up and started to rush to the door when a large beast of a man stood in his way.

"I laugh at fear. You should be afraid of me." The beast grabbed Cranes throat and put him in a chair. "Where did she go?"

"I... I don't know."

"You lie! How dare you insult me." He began crushing his windpipe. "Speak now or you die."

Johnny coughed. "Alright I'll talk." He choked out then when he was let go he looked at the beast and Cobblepot. "Pamela, uh Poison Ivy, she has been taking care of Harley."

The beast looked at him. "Where is she now?"

"Pam or the baby? I mean Harley."

"Miss Quinn. She needs to come be with us, and what of this 'baby' you speak of?" Cobblepot asked.

Crane spat. "Joker got Harley pregnant and they have a child."

The beast grinned. "Is it human?"

"I...I don't know."

"The prophecy is true. The child will rule this earth. We must find it."

"I don't know where they are now. Ivy moves them often to be safe. Last I knew of was out by the docks."

"Good boy. If you are telling the truth I may reward you for your help and give you immortality with us."
