Chapter 7: Cherry Baby

The sound of skin impacting skin forced the unconscious man to wake up.

"Wake up sunshine," Selina said as she leaned against a wall. The man blinked rapidly as his eyes adjusted.

"Huh ouch, where am I?" he asked suddenly. "Am I tied up?" he asked as he struggled.

"No more stupid questions let's get straight to business," Ivy said walking toward him. She let out a dose of pheromones and Selina's least favorite; truth serum.

"Huh...uhhh" he let out as he took a few breaths. "Sure," he released breathlessly.

"Good now tell me why you were here and who do you work for?" Selina asked stepping in.

"Uhhh I don't know," he said simply.

"Answer her," Ivy demanded.

"I was here looking for something," he replied.

"For what?" Selina asked.

"For... for... weapons," he replied though it was evident he was trying to fight off the serum.

"What?!" Selina asked leaning back.

"Explain yourself," Ivy demanded once again.

"Uhh the Penguin he wants to see if ya didn't steal one of his supplies of weapons," he replied trying hard to punish himself.

"Selina I thought you bought those weapons!" Ivy scolded crossing her arms.

"Eh well what's done is done can't blame a cat for taking what's easily available," Selina defended.

"Great now what?" Ivy asked shaking her head frustrated.

"Well that's easy don't let him find out," Selina said rolling her eyes.

"What about this guy?" Ivy asked.

"I know I'll send him flyin'!" Harley said picking up her giant hammer readying it about to swing.

"Wait! Not here," Selina said stopping Harley.

"Don't... don't... kill...me," the guy managed to let out slowly. Selina and Ivy stared at the guy with an ounce of pity.

"Well we can't just let him stay here," Ivy said shaking her head.

"And we can't let him leave here and nark on us," Selina said.

"Well?" Harley asked. Selina pursed her lips then stepped forward.

"Look... look at me!" Selina demanded. "If you wanna live you better leave town. Go anywhere, Metroplis, Paris, I don't care just get out of town or... or this room will be the last thing you'll ever see!" Selina threatened as the guy nodded.

"How do we know he's going to actually listen?" Ivy asked. "What if he just says yes now and talk later?" Ivy added.

"Good point," Selina agreed.

"I got it don't worry," Harley butted in once again as she stepped forward and started dragging the chair toward the exit. Selina gave Ivy a look of confusion as Ivy shrugged back.

"I'm gonna take care of it you'll see!" she said happily as she started drag him the up the basement stairs. A few hours later Harley returned a bit tired but happy as she walked in dragging her hammer with her.

"You actually carried that hammer around?" Selina asked in shock as she got a better look and noticed something red on it.

"What did you do with him?" Ivy asked curiously as she noticed the bit of red as well.

"Ha... I sent him flyin', Duh!" Harley said.

"You killed him?" Selina asked in shock.

"Nah just packed him in a crate and sent him New Guinea," Harley clarified. Both Ivy and Selina blinked a few times before realizing what Harley did.

"Oh," Ivy said simply.

"Ha...ah ha ha!" Selina let out. "Then wait a sec what's all that red on your hammer?" Selina asked confused.

"Oh this?" Harley lifted her hammer and pointed at the spot. "That's just lipstick. I put smileys or Mista J's face on it every once in a while," Harley replied. Ivy rolled her eyes as Selina continued to laugh.

"Hold up, what if the Penguin starts to wonder where his lackey is at? He might send another one soon or get suspicious," Ivy said eyes narrowing. Selina choked on her last laugh as her face went blank. Harley pursed her lips to the side then smiled.

"I got an idea!" Harley said again happily.

"Wow, Harl you're on a roll," Selina said surprised.

"Ya I know, sometimes I even amaze myself," Harley said placing a hand on her chest.

Soon Ivy drove Harley toward Penguin's hideout she kept checking her watch every so often. Harley wrote silently as she sat in the passenger seat.

"You drive so well Red, so smooth and even pace," Harley said placing her arms behind her head.

"I drive just as everyone else does, normal," Ivy responded.

"Yeah..." Harley replied lightly. "Anyhow I'm really glad you and Kitty are gettin' along," Harley said happily. "Ya guys really make me feel like I'm part of a real family, ya know?" Harley said contently.

"Well do you feel more like a family with us or with the Joker?" Ivy asked cautiously. Harley was quiet for a while as she thought over her answer. "Be honest," Ivy added. Harley sighed.

"I feel like a real family with ya guys and well maybe like a couple with me puddin but not like a real family especially... with Curly gone..." Harley wiped a tear from her eye and sniff.

"There there remember you got a job to do in a bit so no more tears," Ivy said motherly.

"You're right, gotta get my act together," Harley acknowledged. "Well what I said is true, you, me, and Kitty we make a pretty good team," Harley reassured.

"I agree too," Ivy said with a slight hint of happiness, she let out a small cough as she turned. "So you know what you're going to say?" Ivy asked.

"Ehh pretty much been writing this fake letter, here," Harley said. Ivy raised a brow.

"Really let me hear it," Ivy replied.

"Okay it says, Dear Cherry Baby, Ya know we had some real good times and some bad times. I think ya a real swell dame but like I mentioned I've been in with a real bad crowd. I didn't want to tell ya this but I've been workin with the Penguin, he's a real bird lover. But I can't stand working here any longer. That's why I'm leavin Gotham to Australia to catch some rays with my new sweetheart Sandra. It would never of worked out between us. Sonny," Harley finished. Ivy was quiet for a moment then smiled.

"Selina was right you are on a roll, I'm impressed," Ivy replied and Harley smiled. Soon Ivy and Harley drove toward Penguins hideout. Harley popped out of the car happily.

"Here comes Cherry baby!" Harley announced as she slammed the door checked over herself and started strutting toward their hideout. Ivy grew a bit nervous as she saw Harley confidently strut but soon smiled as she knew Harley was more than able to take care of herself.

"Whoa check out the fine piece of ass comin' this way," a guard said as he elbowed his partner.

"Yowzer, hey wait she's comin' right at us... stay cool," the man said clearing his throat.

"Hey I need to speak to ya boss or supervisor or someone!" Harley asked holding up her letter.

"Sorry toots, you just can't waltz in here making demands," one of the guys replied.

"And why not?!" Harley huffed.

"Well..."

"Let me see ya boss I need to talk to him about Sonny boy!" Harley yelled as she put the letter in one of their faces.

"Who?" the guy asked and took the letter. They both looked down and read it.

"She must mean Bill he's been missin'" one of the guys replied.

"WHAT?! He didn't even tell me his real name!?" Harley shouted.

"Toots... I mean Cherry you need to calm down," the guy replied.

"Calm down!? Calm down? Three years! Three years I devoted to that scumbag!" Harley cried.

"Okay okay I get it, well is there anything I can get ya? Some hot cocoa uhm, maybe some cash-"

"Me?!" the other guy offered. His partner elbowed him.

"She's clearly in distress here," the guy replied.

"Look can ya just make sure your boss gets this letter and make sure they make Sonny I mean Bill pay and I MEAN PAY!" Harley said her eyes narrowing. The guy shivered.

"Ya..." he gulped. "Sure, here take this to Louis," the guy said and the guy entered the compound and left.

"Good... well see yah!" Harley said happily turning. Harley started skipping away toward Ivy's car.

"Man... what a crazy ass chick... no wonder Bill left her," he said under his breath as he shook his head.

Ivy smiled as Harley came back in one piece. Harley got in the car smiling.

"All done!" she said happily.

"Good let's go," Ivy said with a smile. "By the way nice performance there, quick thinking too," Ivy complimented.

"Why thanks Red," Harley said happily. Ivy smiled as she drove off.
