Hey guys sorry for it taking so long. I've been really busy. Anyway, enjoy and I should be concluding Arkham City Chapters soon. Also Sorry about it being so short of a chapter, I just didn't want to advance the plot to far or skip to much, kind of a filler this one is.
A Rose By Any Other Name
Harley Quinn woke up inside one of Ivy's healing pods. She stumbled and fell to the floor she covered her naked body with a giant leaf from one of Ivy's plants. She wandered the lair looking for Ivy? "Ivy! Where are my clothes?" Harley continued to wander. When she arrived at the top level she saw they hanging, slightly damp as if they were washed recently. She continued to wander about the lair, looking at the cute plants admiring them before they tried to bite her.
Suddenly there was a huge explosion outside. Harley quickly finished getting dressed and ran outside. She immediately feared the worst when she saw the helicopters over Joker's hideout. The billowing smoke made tears flow to her eyes as the image of both Joker dead appeared in her mind. She quickly pushed it away and she left the safety of Ivy's Lair and headed towards the chaos.
Poison Ivy was high above most of Arkham City, looking about for Joker's thugs. She spotted a group of them and attacked them. She dropped from the building and slammed down creating a wave of whipping vines slashing and slamming them against walls and concrete pavement. Ivy took them to the edge of the bridge and hung them over. "How do I get to Joker?" She shouted at them.
"Like we gonna tells you, bitch!" A young thug scorned. Ivy turned to him and smiled before snapping his neck and dropping him onto the rubble below.
"Anyone else wanna talk back?" She waited, "No? OK…how do I get to Joker?" The thugs stayed quiet, trying not to look at her. She began to get angry as they ignored her and stopped her from enacting her revenge on the Joker. She snapped another thug in half then whipping him against the wall of a distant building. "TELL ME!" She shouted at the two left. She heard one of them whimpering, so she snapped the other's neck and squeezed him, making him scream in horrific pain.
"OK! Please s-stop!" the scared thug said, "There is a door you could just walk through. Joker leaves it unguarded."
"See was that so hard?" She asked. She put the two thugs down, and walked away. She waved her hand and a huge vine grabbed them both and dragged them under the bridge then under the ground, burying them both alive.
Catwoman had just gathered the money and was leaving when she saw Batman trapped. She left the money and ran back to help him. She ran along the buildings as quickly as possible towards Joker's hideout. She saw Harley leave Ivy's lair, she just pushed on, hoping her lover was not dead by the time she got there. She saw Ivy torturing the goons. All she could do was laugh.
She helped Batman with the rubble that was on him and hugged him close as soon as they finished shrugging off the near death as just a joke. Ivy soon arrived to find Batman and soon after that Harley was there.
"B-man! Where's mistah J?" She asked sorrowfully.
"Heading towards immortality."
All three of the girls were shocked, and in a eerie unison shouted, "What!"
Batman turned to leave when he saw the legion of attack choppers, He shook his and began to sway before catching himself and leaving to stop Strange then Joker. He thought to himself, ~I have to stop Joker…or he'll kill Talia.~
