Chapter 1 Rebirth - Start
Arkham Asylum
In Gotham City, just outside the city, we can see a familiar asylum on this cold and storming night. Lightning and thunder dancing off in the night. Rain hitting the ground hard. A great number of the Dark Knight's rouges were sent here that are dangerous psychotic and while the more mid-mind were sent to Black Gate or Iron Heights. Arkham Asylum, an asylum that was started by Amadeus Arkham in the memory of his mother who was treated for dementia and built up in the early 1900s, which many call the asylum as Gotham's House of Madness and Ill Humor to many people today.
The Arkham historic mansion became the very asylum many know today, the asylum holds many secrets to be discovered or remain hidden in the darkness. And also the asylum is connected to the Botanical Gardens as well.
Many believed that the grounds of the asylum used to belong and were owned by an occult expert named Dr. Blood who carried out exorcisms on the mentally ill back in the day but mainly rumor for the time being.
A good number of the guards were corrupted, under Warden Quincy Sharp's thumb and followed his orders, treating the patients very cruel and inhuman treatments in order to cure them to Sharp's boost on becoming manor in Gotham.
Doctor Hugo Strange did his own experiments, mostly studying the patient's psyche and what drives them to become who they are, while searching for what makes Batman, Batman. He seems to be on the topic a lot than other patients in Arkham.
In fact, we see a psychiatrist walking down the hallways to his main and only patient due to living long enough than other doctors that talk to planet users. He was a young handsome man with brown hair that has a light streak, red ruby-like eyes that spark interest in different things, and the body of an Olympian runner. He wore a grey shirt which a white lab coat covering it but has his personal coat in his locker, blue jeans that are held up by a silver belt, dress shoes, and had this aura around of mystery.
This was Joseph Arkham, one of the psychiatrists and doctors working in Arkham Asylum. And yes relative to Amadeus which many don't ask about it, being for the best.
Joseph was heading down to one of his sessions with his main and only patient which is a relaxing and peaceful thing for him. And he needed someone to talk to after his ex-girlfriend broke up with him in favor of her new interest which wasn't healthy I might add.
The brown-haired psychiatrist happened to be the only one that can have a good session with this patient better than only doctor here in Arkham Asylum and can great progress in. To the point of not needing guards for an escort or on stand-by. No, he didn't want that as it lose his patients' trust and think they are afraid of them.
Joseph can admit that at first when working here in the asylum, he was afraid of the Dark Knight's Rouges and still but a good number of them, not anymore as doing his main patient changed that outlook and more around him. Like opening his mind to a bigger picture and today was a normal session but was mainly to talk with someone which brings us here in a certain cell where we see a certain embodiment of a living rose or mother's nature hand, Poison Ivy or Pamela Lillian Isley who was a beautiful goddess in the brown-haired doctor's eyes.
But moving on, to the current situation.
"Patient interview, Pamela Lilian Isley. October 10th, 4:33 PM," Joseph started, taking his set from the table across from Pamela and started the interview taping, record.
"Good afternoon, Pamela. How are you today?" Joseph asked, starting to write any notes down and putting his record tap on the table, stander program within the asylum when interviewing with patients.
"Fine, quite fine actually. Thank you for asking, Joseph," Pamela replied.
"That's good to hear, you are very welcome. And today would mark our 50th session together," Joseph commented, being a big step for him as his main patient with Poison Ivy has reached a good count level than any other doctors and patients here.
"Indeed, quite a special day for you, Joseph. In fact, I believe within a month, my special day would come," Pamela commented a smirk on her beautiful face showing.
"Ah the anniversary of your transformation, caused by Dr. Woodrue," Joseph said with a hit of venom in his voice on mentioning that doctor's name, a true scumbag that harmed and manipulated the beautiful woman. Wait, he shook his thoughts of that, got back on track.
"Yes, him. You don't seem too proud of him," Pamela pointed out, noticing the anger within her psychiatrist.
"Why won't I be? Woodrue had done manipulated and forced you that no woman or man should be forced to face, breaking many oaths of doctors should never do just to get some crash from warlords across different counties," Joseph explained, showing deep disliking and hatred towards the man that caused Pamela to become Poison Ivy.
Pamela hummed and nodded her head in truth to that, reasonable for Joseph to hate Woodrue for what he had done to her.
"However, you are still capable to hold your beauty, no matter what color you have changed into or what you are capable of doing now, Ivy," Joseph commented, taking the hate and attention away, replacing them.
Pamela smirked with a small hit of red in her cheeks.
"Flatter, Joseph. Do you always flirt with your patients?" Pamela asked with a seductive smile forming on her face.
"Huh, no. Just you, I believe," Joseph replied quickly and kept writing his notes down.
The rest of the session went underway between the pair, being the same as before which the pair were acting like good friends sharing stories and flirting with each other than common doctor and patient. The brown-haired young man didn't care as he could edit the tapes later and change it out.
Before the end of their session, the red-haired beauty noticed something within Joseph's eyes, a hit of pain and heartache that happened not too long ago. He seems better but a bit hurting and she wonders why while making a good guess why.
"How's your current relationship Dr. Quinzel working out?" Pamela asked, causing Joseph to stop his writing and was saddened by that sudden question but would respond to it.
"...not good I'm afraid... Harleen broke up me and kicked me out of the apartment," Joseph replied with his head lowered and frowned while clenching his hands into a fist in anger on why his ex broke up with, due to her new interest in her main patient she was working on.
"Oh, sorry to that, Joseph," Pamela said, feeling and sounding like she was really sorry for both Joseph and Harleen. She was very concerned about one man that so far impressed her and make her not wish to brainwash him with her pheromones or poison him with a kiss of death.
For Joseph due to how close he was to Harleen and made a good couple but got stained when working here and changed to ex/former now. For Harleen, very sorry for her and hope she can get away from that madman before it's too late.
"How far were you in your relationship with Harley?" Pamela asked, sounding more flirtatious and seductive as she was able to step up from her chair & make her way towards the brown-haired young man, showing that her cuffs weren't on this whole time as she placed down on the table and cameras were off due to the doctor doing that, wanting the talk between doctor and patient between them.
A mistake, maybe from a different point of view or maybe not.
"Huh, uhh, far not...nowhere intimate. We got together during the start of our college year and were able to come across a job here in Arkham Aslyume," Joseph replied, honestly while feeling a bit heated as the red-haired beauty got closer to him, much more, and started to staddled on his lap.
"Really now? It must be pretty lonely, all by yourself and not close to someone," Pamela said, slowing rubbing herself onto Joseph's from the chest and down below, causing him to blush a full face and moan at this sudden enjoyment.
"A bit...yes," Joseph said, through some moans escaping his mouth, and struggled to keep himself relaxed which was very hard when you have a beautiful and sexy goddess on your lap.
"Maybe I could help you with that. Help heal you~," Pamela said, her voice sounding like a song and more relaxing.
"I will keep that in mind, Pamela," Joseph managed to say.
"Good~, just know that I'm here, Joseph," Pamela said as she slowly got up from the brown-haired doctor's lap, not before kissing his cheeks and leaving totally surprised by her actions even more.
"Yeah," Joseph said, calming himself down and relaxing as he saw the red-haired beauty which he didn't feel bad about when she did that to him. Like thinking about Harleen think about didn't cross his mind and rebond was coming along.
The brown-haired doctor had a feeling that he would have to keep this event with Pamela deep quiet and cover up his tracks while other things down the line.
Unknown to Joseph, is that things would become something else for him when Harleen falls into madness and he himself will go through a transformation himself.
