After an hour, Ivy strolled to Harley's room. Her bed was completely covered in guns.
"And what's the point of this one?" Arrow asked holding up a sawed off double barrel shotgun.
"I use it when I wanna utterly demolish everything in front of me" Harley said "not a lot of aimin' involved eithah. Just point and shoot. Great for integrations too."
"How?" Arrow asked.
"Can I show ya?" Harley asked.
"Sure" He said.
"Cool" Harley said "sit on the bed."
He sat down and waited.
Harley shoved the shotgun in his face so he was looking into the barrels and said "move a muscle and I paint the wall red with your brains! See how dark it is in there?!...Answer me!"
"Yes" he said weakly.
"It's the last thing you'll evah see if ya don't tell me what I wanna know! NOW!"
She took the shotgun away from his face, set it on the bed and said "pretty good, huh?"
He just sat still staring straight ahead.
"Ya ok?" she shook him "snap out of it! Hello!?"
She ran into the hall and yelled "IS THERE A DOCTAH IN THE HOUSE?!"
Batman and Wonder Woman came running.
"What happened?" Batman asked.
Ivy walked over and said "it's ok I saw everything."
"What happened?" Batman asked again.
"Green Arrow was asking about her guns. When they got to the sawed off shotgun, which is nicknamed the 'lip loosener'. He asked her how she used it in interrogations and agreed to let Harl show him. So she stuck it in his face, screamed at him and threatened to kill him. I think he might be in shock."
"Harley!" Batman said "what did we say about behaving yourself?! Especially with guns!"
"I didn't mean to put 'im in shock" Harley said "it's not even loaded."
"I doubt that!" Batman said "maybe this was a mistake."
Harley grabbed the shotgun off the bed and walked to Batman. She glared at him, put the barrels under her chin and pulled both triggers.
Everyone gasped. Harley shoved the shotgun into Batman's arms and asked "believe me now?!"
"You could have killed yourself!" Batman yelled.
"I TOLD YA IT AIN'T LOADED!" Harley yelled "why do you even care?! You're pretty much the only one here who seems to still hate and not trust me! Arrow trusted me to put a gun to his head!" she sighed "can I play with Bud and Lou in your greenhouse, Red?"
"Sure Harl" Ivy said "just keep them away from the lab equipment."
Harley nodded and walked away with Bud and Lou following. Everyone in the room was glaring at Batman, even Green Arrow who came out of shock when Batman started yelling at Harley.
"I'll go talk to her" Batman said.
"No" Ivy said "she doesn't want or need to talk to you right now."
"I'll talk to her" Green Arrow said as he stood up.
"You should rest" Batman said stepping in front of him.
"Move" Arrow said.
Batman stepped to the side and let him pass. Arrow walked to the greenhouse and pushed the button to open the door. Harley was giggling and rolling around on the floor with the hyenas. Arrow leaned against the doorframe and cleared his throat.
Harley looked up and said "Oh Mistah Arrow, ya look bettah" she jumped to her feet "sorry 'bout scarin' ya."
"It's alright" he said "it is a good interrogation technique."
"So ya ain't mad?" Harley asked.
"No" he said smiling.
"Batman is" Harley said "he still don't trust me."
"Don't worry about him" Arrow said "I'll take care of him."
Harley hugged him and said "thanks."
"Am I interrupting something?" They heard Black Canary ask.
They stepped away from each other and Arrow said "nothing, I mean nothing happened, I mean…"
"We weren't doin' nothin'" Harley said.
"I know" Canary said as she started laughing "Ivy explained what happened and I came to see if everything was ok."
"Red put ya up to that, didn't she?" Harley asked.
"Maybe" Ivy said as she stepped around the corner.
"I'll be fine" Harley said "thanks."
"We were thinking" Canary said "maybe what you need is a little time away from the Watch Tower and Batman. So why don't the four of us go out for a night on the town?"
"Great idea" Harley said smiling "street clothes?"
"Yes" Canary said "so why don't we go change and meet at the teleporters?"
"What about Bud and Lou?" Harley asked "they don't have a pen yet."
"We could put them in one of the holding cells" Arrow said.
"I guess that works" Harley said "where are they?"
"Follow me" Arrow said as he walked out of the room.
Harley whistled and followed with the hyenas close behind. Arrow led her to the prison area and opened one of the cells.
"Go inside" Harley said.
The hyenas walked into the cell and sat down. Arrow closed the door.
"Good boys" Harley said "ya be good and Mama will bring ya a treat."
She and Arrow walked away. Soon all four of them were ready to go. Canary had simply chosen blue jeans with a black collared shirt with her black jacket and heels. Arrow was in black dress pants, a white shirt and a green jacket with dress shoes. Harley had on a short sleeved, red collared shirt, tight black jeans with black combat boots, her .357 was on her hip. Ivy was in a green sleeveless top and a green skirt with sandals.
"Do you always carry that pistol?" Canary asked.
"Yeah" Harley said "better to have it and not need it."
"Good point" Arrow said "so where do you ladies want to go?"
"It don't matter to me" Harley said.
"There's a nice little place in downtown Gotham" Ivy said "I've been there a time or two. Good service and good food."
"Let's go there" Canary said.
They got into the teleporter and disappeared and reappeared in downtown Gotham, directly in front of the restaurant.
Arrow opened the door and said "ladies first."
Ivy walked in and went up to the waiter's podium.
"Ah, Dr. Isley" the waiter said "always a pleasure."
"Thank you" Ivy said "four please."
"Right this way" he said.
He led them to a round table in the back.
He gave them their menus and asked "would you like to start out with a drink?"
"Yes" Ivy said "red wine, please."
"Beer" Harley said.
"Champagne for the two of us" Arrow said.
"Very good" the waiter said "I will have them right out."
They began to look the menus over.
"I've never heard of this place" Canary said.
"It's pretty new" Ivy said "I've been here a time or two. I always have a table because I custom bred the flowers they wanted outside for them."
"Interesting" Arrow said.
The waiter came back with their drinks and asked "are you ready to order, or do you need another moment?"
"I think we're ready" Ivy said "I'll have the steamed vegetable plate."
"I'd like the steak with a baked potato" Arrow said.
"I'll have the salmon" Canary said.
"And you miss?" the waiter asked looking at Harley.
"The popcorn shrimp and fries" Harley said.
"Ma'am that is off of our children's menu" the waiter said.
"So?" Harley asked.
"Very well" he said "I will have it out as soon as I can."
The four of them chatted and laughed. After they finished eating and paid the bill, they went outside.
"That was good" Canary said "we'll have to remember this place."
"Well" Arrow said "I guess we should-"
Harley held her hand up, stopping him and said "shh."
"That was rude" Ivy said.
"SHH" Harley said.
She stood completely still for a second. Suddenly she drew her revolver and ran towards an alley.
The others quickly followed her as Arrow yelled "Harley! Get back here!"
When they reached the alley, they found Harley holding three of the Joker's goons against the wall with her pistol while talking to a young couple.
"What happened?" Arrow asked.
"We were being mugged, until this brave young lady saved us" the man said.
Just then, the Batmobile sped up and screeched to a halt.
"Look who's tardy to the party" Canary said.
"You four stopped the Joker's gang?" Batman asked.
"No" Arrow said "Harley did."
"What?" Batman asked.
"It's true" the lady Harley saved said.
"Let's get outta here" one of the gangsters said.
He started to run, Harley fired her revolver. The bullet hit the wall less than an inch in front of his nose. He immediately froze.
"Next time I aim for the brain, not the wall" Harley said "don't move a muscle, GOT IT?!"
"Yes ma'am" he said.
"Can ya take it from here B Man?" Harley asked.
"Yes" he said frustrated.
Harley spun her pistol around her finger and put it in the holster.
"Are we doin' something else or goin' back to the Watch Towah?" Harley asked.
"Let's just go back" Canary said.
"Ok" Harley said "I just gotta stop and get some food for the babies."
"Babies?" Arrow asked.
"The hyenas" Ivy said.
"Oh" he said "ok, let's go find a pet store."
