Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn 1

Part 1 Intruder in the Night

Chapter 2

"Red. Hey, Red." A voice whispered urgently through the darkness.

Poison Ivy had been asleep but the voice along with her shoulder being poked harshly had caused her to snap awake. Fuelled with fear that someone had found her hideout, she kicked out at the person knocking them backwards, Ivy then dived out of bed, and in one fluid motion she scooped up her emergency plant seeds she kept on the nightstand and flung them at the ground beneath the stunned intruder, instantly vines shot up from the soil covered ground and wrapped around the trespasser restricting their movements even though the figure did not struggle against the tightening grip of the vines.

"How did you find this place?" Ivy questioned the intruder, but deep down she already knew the answer, only one person besides herself knew where this hideout was and she was supposed to be with the Joker. Ivy's heart skipped a beat as she walked over to the nightstand and touched the plant that was sitting atop it, reacting to Ivy's gentle touch to it lit up which in turn caused the entire room to light up. Just as Ivy had hoped, the new light revealed the intruder to be Harley Quinn. Ivy let out a gasp, Harley was a mess her clothes were torn, showing parts of her skin which were covered in black and blue bruises, her blonde hair that was usually pulled up in pigtails was covered in twigs and leaves and cascaded down her face, Ivy reached out a hand and gently brushed Harleys hair off her face. Ivy almost gasped again Harley's usual smiling face was gone replaced by a terrible sight, she had dried blood on her face that had run from her nose, there was a deep cut in her right cheek and both of her eyes were black and streams of tears poured from them.

"Oh Harls," Ivy exclaimed as she released the vines and pulled Harley into a hug, while trying to ignore her exposed breasts poking through the remains of her jester costume. The sudden show of affection took an immediate effect on Harley who began crying loudly into Ivy's shoulder.

"It always ends up like this, I screw up, he gets mad and kicks me out and I always end up going straight back to him," she sobbed.

Ivy patted Harley gently on the back comforting her. "It's alright, relax, your safe here, just stay the night and we'll decide what happens tomorrow."

"Thanks Red," replied Harley letting out a sigh of relief, but then she tensed up and went paler than the makeup she was wearing. "He'll come for me Red, and if he finds me here, Harley shuddered at the thought. "I've put you in danger."

Harley broke away from Ivy and started for the exit, Ivy reached out and grabbed her arm and while ignoring Harley objections pulled her back.

"Sorry Harley, but I don't care if that white-faced lunatic comes for me, I won't let him get you. Now, go and have a nice, long shower to clean yourself up and help you relax, I kept some spare clothes in the cupboard for you from last time."

"Thanks Red, you always put up with me every time I stuff up like this." Harley said as she turned and limped to the bathroom, not giving Ivy the chance to say anything else.

As Harley limped away Ivy couldn't help staring at her ass, it was small and cute even if it was covered in bruises from the Joker. Ivy let out a long sigh, there was no way she could tell Harley her feelings for her, if she did it could ruin the friendship they have and besides, Ivy knew that Harley didn't feel that same way about her, Harley only had eyes for The Joker even if he abused her and she went back to him every time. Ivy just hoped deep in her heart that this time was different.
