Chapter 35: What Happened?
She had left the Avengers tower in search for The Joker. She needed to put her past behind her once and for all. She needed to know how he had come back to life and how he had found her.
So she flew to London, hoping to pick up leads of his whereabouts.
There were many talks about the jewellery stores in London getting robbed. She went to many of them trying to track down whether or not she could find the Joker. However it was not her that found him but it was he that found her.
He found her in an alley, staring at some of his most recent artwork, a painting of a joker and harlequin.
"Do you like it?" He spoke quietly but loud enough for her to hear. Harleen spun around quickly looking for him.
"Where are you?" She asked.
"I'm right here." He replied, slowly revealing himself from the shadows.
"It's you, it's really you." Harleen spoke softly, almost wanting to go up and touch his face with her hand. However she had to restrain herself from doing so.
"Yes it is I, your puddin. What happened to my little wittle Harlequin?" The Joker asked snickering.
"I've changed Jack." Harleen spoke strongly. The Joker moved quicker than the flash and grabbed her by the throat and held her against the wall.
"Now, now my darling, you know not to call me by that name." All Harleen could do was nodded. The Joker released his grip and lifted her down a bit.
"Now I can see you've changed Harley, So have I believe it or not."
"It's Harleen."
"Ah I see you've gone back to your boring old days before I came along. Now we've got a few options." The Joker said waving around a knife.
"I can help you back to being Harley and you can join me again, so we can return to Gotham together or you can just return my emerald and I will leave you alone to live out the rest of you miserable life in this hell whole of a planet."
"I do not want to return to Gotham and I do not want to be with you." Harleen spoke strongly.
"I see, so return my emerald so I can return back to Gotham and leave you to live out the rest of your pathetic little life." The Joker said snarling.
"But I don't have your emerald. I've never had it."
"My dear sweet Harley, you've always had it. It was the ring I gave you when we married."
"I do I don…"
"Come on spit it out sweetheart, I don't have all day."
"I don't have it." Harleen said quietly looking down at her feet.
"YOU WHAT?" The Joker yelled back at her, slapping her face.
"I don't have it. When I first arrived, they took all my belongings away, they never got returned."
"Well, we're just going to have to get it back. Now where is it all?"
"New York City. I'm not coming though."
"Well tough, sweet cheeks you're coming." The Joker said before knocking her out.
