*Kayne's P.O.V.

*Ariel is the human name of Poison Ivy in this book not Pamela

The day after the murder…

Huh?! Where am I?

I opened my eyes to a disgusting and unorganized room. I tried to get up, but fell in the process. It seems that my hands are tightly wrapped and trapped in the grips of long rope like a fish caught in a net. "Hi there, remember me?" Joker's face appeared in front of me. Just the sight of him made me sick to my stomach. Before I knew it I spit on his unworthy face and immediately I fell back in the aftermath of the unplanned slap that fell upon my face.

"You bitch! Can't you see I am holding back my urge of giving that gorgeous face of yours a permanent smile." The Joker said urging me to be silent and to not act like a regular teenage dumbass.

"Where am I? Where's bruce?"

"Bruce is locked away in his manor throwing away all your stuff and moving on. He never loved you. He was just stuck with you. He always wanted to get rid of you and now that he, he is happier than ever. You were holding him back, holding him back from a life time of happiness. He never loved you… EVER!"

"That's not true, he loved me. He did! He said it himself!" I screamed, as tears slithered down my confused face.

"He lied!" He replied in a mischievous expression.

Could the Joker be telling the truth? No, he couldn't be. Bruce loves me, he does. I know it. Did he lie? No I'm sure of it, he loves me. How do I get out of here? Bruce must be worried. Where's Ariel, maybe she'll help me. I doubt it, she betrayed me, I thought she loved me, but she was just one of Joker's pawns.

"I'll be right back. Don't move I don't want trouble…yet." He waltzed out of the room carrying a long plastic tube that looks like some sort of medical equipment. I looked around the room to see my surroundings. I could see a couple crates labeled 'DO NOT OPEN. GOVERNMENT PROPERTY', a door that the Joker went through, and a couple of black and red outfits, that probably belonged to Harley.

I countlessly scrunched my body and then extended it to see if I could crawl around and get a better look of this manifesto that is the Joker's layer. Out of a sudden, I could hear a voice that sounded like Ariel's.

"He said he wouldn't hurt her, and now look she's dead." whimpered Poison Ivy.

Does she think I am dead?

"I knew I shouldn't have gone through with this plan in the first place. It was a disaster from the start."

"Hey! Quiet down before Mistah J hears ya." replied Harley.

I tried to yell to see if maybe they would hear me." HELP! HELP!" my results ended in failure when Joker barged in through the door.

"I told you not to cause any trouble!" Joker said maniacally, while grabbing my face, his thumb pressing into my chin. I couldn't help, but to reply in a whimper. "Now, time for your medicine. This will help you calm down and take a little nap."

Before I could revolt, he stabbed the shot in my arm, the needle tarring into my skin. Abruptly, my eyes began to close before it completely snapped shot.
