Harley blinked groggily, she groaned as a sharp pain sliced through her head. She winced and blinked furiously as blood dripped into her eyes. She tried to move her hands to wipe the blood away but found her arms hanging above her head, tied at the wrist. As she blinked the blood away she focused her eyes and screamed.

A piercing high pitched scream roused Batman. He was confused and couldn't focus on any clear thoughts. He felt himself tied up upside down and struggled furiously. He was tightly tied and couldn't release himself. As his anger grew the more he struggled, as he struggled his body swivelled and swung like a pendulum, as his body moved he swung closer and closer to another figure clad in black hanging limp next to him. "Selina!"

Ivy stood back proudly and admired her handiwork. She and her babies had transformed the warehouse into a haven. Roots had torn through the foundations and as they did so her babies joined together and all spread like tendrils, writhing and curling around everything they could. They pulled and ripped and took control of the building until their mother now stood in the middle of what could be construed as a jungle. It was hot, steamy, floral and green. My babies...this is so beautiful. They preened and almost whispered in reply to her. She ran her fingers over them like a lover, she whispered sweet nothing's and moaned as they surrounded her voluptuous curves, clinging and caressing her body. The scream from the cheeky blonde set tension in the air and her babies became riled up and tensed. She gritted her teeth as she internally pushed any remainder of her humanity left and relished in the attentions of her children instead.

Harley was dangling directly above the biggest bud she had ever seen. Oh boy! If I know Red...and I do...that isn't gonna be a nice playmate. She looked around and spied the Dark Knight trying to escape and trying to wake Selina who is still out of it. He really loves her...even though he says they can't be together, he'd still do anything for her. She watched them sadly before her attention was stolen by a soft moan. She looked over the see the redheaded beauty being caressed by her plants. Fuck...why is that turning me on? Harley blushed as she felt her body reacting to the sight. Her eyes latched onto the green emeralds and she sucked her breath in nervously. The beautiful emerald eyes she always found herself entranced by were full of anger and fire and hate.

Harley was awake. Using her babies she floated over toward the giant bud in the centre and she planted a gentle kiss to it and rose up to greet Harley with a snarl. The blonde was trembling, she knew exactly what was about to happen and Ivy revelled in her fear. She grabbed the little cute face hard, digging her nails in causing a groan of pain, she pulled Harley closer and licked some of the deep red blood dripping down toward her forehead.

Harley was in a whirlwind of emotion. So much of her was petrified, she knew what Red was capable of, she knew how mad she could get, she had seen her get mad at her because of Mistah J before, but this was on another level. At the same time having her lick her face was causing all other kinds of reactions.

Ivy's babies moved her over to where the Dark Knight was trying to free himself and save Selina. She smiled cruelly at his attempts. How touching. She swung her arm back and slapped that square jaw with a loud crack. She moved his tied hands from above his head and twisted them behind his back and whispered to a vine from the ceiling that came and secured his arms behind him. "There. Now you look like a proper bat." She watched as he clenched his jaw to not give her any more satisfaction. She winked at him and moved over to the slender figure encased in a black catsuit, that made him start to struggle again and she laughed cruelly. She reached Selina and whispered her name in her ear. Selina didn't stir so Ivy wound up and gave her a vicious slap to rouse her.

Selina was sinking in a world of black, she could hear his voice but she couldn't see him. She reached out and couldn't feel him. Bruce...I'm lost...Bruce? Help me... She heard his deep voice cracking

"I can't."

She felt tears welling up and spilled down her face. Gravity wasn't right, her tears were flowing down to her forehead, not her chin. She felt sick and confused. Those two words kept circling around the black void.

"I can't."

An agonising strike to her face forced her eyes open suddenly, she winced at the invasion of light on her senses. Everything hurt. She focused her vision and groaned. Ivy. Shit. She looked either side of her and saw Harley sobbing her heart out and Bruce looking at her sorrowfully. She hung her head and her eyes widened at the sight of a giant bud they were all suspended over. Shit.
