THIS IS A FANFIC! ALL PROPERTIES BELONG TO DC
EYE-SARAH ROOM
Sarah is sitting on the floor, colouring pictures of herself and Barbara. She doesn't know Barbara but have heard stories about her from her grandfather. She often dreams to be with her. To get to know her mother better and hopefully have a life that isn't an experiment. She looks up and hears talking outside her door. She gets up and opens the door a little to have a sneak peek outside. She sees two armed men dragging an unconscious Nightwing through the corridor.
Mr Silver walks behind the three with a huge grin "Be careful of that young man. I picked him for project Recovery I want him to look good for the big day."
Mr Silver looks at Sarah's door as she quickly and quietly closes the door. He looks back at his men as he places his hands in his pocket as he continues to walk, smiling at his success.
MORNING-BARBARA'S ROOM
Barbara is sitting next to her desk, looking at her scanned photograph of her daughter while trying to picture what she looks like now. Barbara then pulls out her phone and looks at her recent phone calls. She tries to call Dick for a third time, waiting for him to answer.
"Hey this Dick. I'm a bit busy so leave a message and I will call you back."
Barbara sighs in annoyance, as she hangs up on him again and leans back on her wheelchair.
WAYNE MANOR-ALFRED ROOM
Bruce enters the room, carrying a breakfast tray. Alfred looks at the man, smiling as Bruce places the tray on his lap.
"You don't have to worry about me Master Bruce. I am capable of making my own breakfast."
Bruce sits by the his side "I have ignored you for months Alfred. I'm not going to ignore you again. You need rest."
Alfred chuckles "No. what I need is to get back to work."
"Bed!" Bruce said, raising his voice a little "your still injured. You need time to heal."
Alfred once again chuckles "I have been saying that to you for nearly 33 years and you still never listened." His smile fades "Did you try calling Miss Harley?"
Bruce didn't answer but gave the old man a soft smile. The smile was a hint enough for Alfred as he softly nods.
"I see." Alfred whispered.
Bruce's phone rings, which startled him. Bruce turns to his phone "Wayne." He said simply.
"Bruce. It's Clark. I need you to meet me at Gotham docks."
"Gotham dock? What you doing there." He asks curiously.
"I was doing some digging and there is something huge happening. Just meet me there as soon as you can."
Bruce nervously turns to Alfred, like he is asking for permission. Alfred nods, as he turns to his food.
Bruce turns back round "I be there in 20 minutes."
"Make sure you're in your civilian clothes. Your gonna need them." Clark said before hanging up.
'Civilian clothes?' Bruce asks himself confusingly.
IVY APARTMENT
Harley (in her pyjamas) is in a deep sleep on the couch, snoring loudly. Ivy walks to her and jumps on top of Harley, waking her.
"Wha-ther-hell!" She mumbled, one eye open, fixing at Ivy, annoyed "What are you doing?"
"You're cooper in here and it's driving you crazy. Me and you are going out to have some fun." She said playfully.
"I'm not feeling it…" she whispered.
"Come on! You ditched work twice this week and you spend your whole day moping on my couch. So I'm taking you out whether you like to or not." Ivy said.
Harley grits her teeth "there's a third option."
"What's that?"
"I stay here and you leave me alone." She said as she turns away from Ivy.
Ivy grabs Harley's arm "Nope! Not happening." She said as she drags her off the couch.
"Ugh! Red!" Harley groaned, as her body is now fallen to the floor.
"Get your lazy ass off my floor!" She said "trust me. It be good for you."
Harley lifts her head up off the floor, feeling defeated "Fine…"
OUTSIDE THE APARTMENT
Harley (now dressed) and Ivy walked out the apartment building as Harley looks down the street "So where we walking to Red?"
"We're driving actually." She said, as she pulls her keys out of her pocket.
Harley eyes widen "You got a car?"
"Not exactly…" she said as she points to a van in front of them "I'm borrowing it from a 'special' friend."
Harley looks at her "I'm not doing anything that involves me back in prison Red. I meant what I said, I gave up that life."
"So have I. If you don't trust me, look at the back. There's nothing inside."
Ivy takes Harley at the back of the van. Ivy opens the back doors as Harley puts her head in there. Unknown to her, Ivy quietly sneaks behind Harley, pushing her in the van.
"Hey! What're you doin'?" Harley shouted.
Ivy closes the doors behind her, locking her in "Sorry, Harles. It's for your own good." Ivy looks on her right to see two elderly couple looking at her suspiciously "Morning, Mr and Mrs Evans." She said, as she walks to the front of the van.
As the van drives off Mrs Evans turns to her husband "Isn't that our sons van?"
VAN
Ivy starts whistling peacefully, ignoring Harley's banging at the back.
"Pamela Isley! If you don't get me out of here right now, I'm gonna kill you!" Harley shouted aggressively, banging as hard as she can.
Ivy shrugs as she continues to drive "I thought you gave all that up?"
"I change my mind!" She shouted even louder.
The red head chuckles "Just calm down Harles."
"Calm down?" Harley question in disbelief "You're kidnapping me god damnit! Where the hell are we goin'?"
Ivy smiles softly "Gotham Docks."
EYE-LAB
Dick Grayson, now unmasked is tied up at on the side of the table, with silicone tubing connecting to his arms. Dick struggles to break free, but feeling too weak to move.
"That would be the drugs we've been drilling into you." Mr Silver said as he walks next to him "This procedure is painful after all."
Dick grits his teeth, trying his best to break free "You better hope I don't get out of here soon."
Mr Silver snickers as he looks at him "Better men have tried Mr Grayson."
Dick looks at his side to see a tube of green hair inside "Is that a hair?" He asks confusingly.
"My brothers. You can thank Commisioner Gordon for that." He said "It was easy really. Getting him to do what I want."
"Like what, coward?" Dick shouted. "Threatening to kill her daughter. Kidnapping a little girl?"
Mr Silver looks at him "That 'little girl' is special. She annoys the hell out of me. Always a snide remark here, listening to my conversations there. Always sneaking out just to see her precious mother. That little girl has no idea how special. And it fucking kills me, keeping her alive." He said in disgust.
"Special?" Dick asks.
Mr Silver doesn't say a word. He gets up and walks to the door.
"Where you going?" Dick asks "What you gonna do to me?" Mr Silver doesn't answer, as he leaves the room "What you want from me?!" He shouted.
Outside Sarah looks at the door, worrying about Dick. Mr Silver stops and looks at her "What do you want?" He said aggressively.
Sarah, shaken looks at him "You're actually gonna do it aren't you?"
Mr Silver doesn't answer, as he leaves her by the door. Sarah looks at the door carefully, thinking hard as she can.
GOTHAM DOCKS
Ivy pulls the van up, and jumps out seeing Diana by the boat "I'm here." She said.
Diana looks at the van "Where is she?"
Ivy points "Back of the van. She's not in a happy mood."
"You kidnapped her?" Diana ask in frustration.
Ivy nods "It's seems a lot quicker than doing some shopping which would takes hours." She lowers her arm "Think this is gonna work?"
Diana calms down and crosses her arms "It has to."
Some time later
Bruce pulls his car and gets out, with Clark walks to him quickly "Come with me, Bruce. There's something you have to see."
The two walked together down to where the van is.
"What is it Clark? What's going on-?"
"Get me out!" Harley shouted inside "Red if you don't get me out of here soon I will kill you, bring you to back to life, kill you again and make you live in here with me!"
Bruce looks at it weirdly "There's someone in there."
Clark pretends to look stump "You think?"
"Get me out of here. Right. Now!" Harley shouted louder.
Bruce looks at it "Is that Harley?" He leans at the back of the van, tapping it with his hand "Harley? Is that?"
'I know that voice.' Harley thought "Bruce?"
Bruce turns to Clark "What's going on here Clark?"
Clark doesn't say a word as Ivy and Diana come to the scene "It's time for you two to make up." Diana said quietly.
Bruce looks at the three in disbelief "You did this? You set this up?"
Ivy nod "I understand it's a bit erratic but the both of you are more alike than you think. You're both stubborn. None of you will call each other. You both won't talk what happened. We had to do something before both of you regret it for the rest of your lives."
Bruce raises his eye brows "So you kidnap you're best friend?"
Diana turns to the redhead "You can blame her that one."
Ivy crosses her arms "It was the only way to get her here."
Clark raises his hand up, trying to change the subject "This is your chance to making things right Bruce. We know you still love her and she still loves you too."
Diana nods in agreement "It was just one lie Bruce. A lie to protect each other. But maybe it's time for honesty because being honest is the only way on protecting each other, especially when it comes to marriage." Bruce looks at her, listening to her words "Now go get her out of there and talk to her."
Bruce doesn't say a word as Ivy pulls the keys out and hands it to him. Bruce unlocks it and opens the back doors. Harley, looking shock takes a step out looking at Bruce's eyes. The eyes she fell in love with. She turns see her best friend, Bruce's best friend and the woman that she met yesterday.
She turns to Bruce "Bruce what's goin' on?" She asks in confusion.
"It doesn't matter now." Bruce whispered "I'm sorry. I should of told you about your Mom. I wanted to. I now realise I should of told you from the start."
Harley holds Bruce's hand "I should of told you about Alfred. I'm sorry too." She spoke softly. "How is he?"
"He's fine. Complaining about being in bed all day but he's fine." The two laughed. Bruce, unstable to stop himself, softly strokes her hand, feeling something on her finger. He lifts it up to look at it, noticing that she is still wearing her engagement ring.
"You're still wearing it?"
Harley chuckles softly "I can't seem to take it off. I couldn't show my face at work, but this ring helps me forget who I am. Even if it's just for a moment." Her eyes starts to tear up.
"What you mean?" Bruce ask.
"I am not who you think I am. I can see myself every time I look at my reflection. I am Harley Quinn." She lowers her head "I am a monster"
Bruce lifts her head "No you're not. You are my love. My destiny. You are going to be Harleen Frances Wayne."
"But…"
"There's no buts Harley." He said softly "You said that ring helps you forget who you were. Well when I look into you you help me forget the person I was. A scared boy in that alley. I love you because you made me want to be a man that I want to be and that man wants to marry you. The question is, do you want to marry me."
Harley softly smiles "Yes I do." Her smiles widens "More than anything."
She leans to kiss Bruce as he wraps his arms round her waist as her hands strokes the side of his hair.
Diana and Ivy both crosses their arms while Clark takes his glasses off and cleans them.
Clark smiles at the girls "I think the wedding is back on." He turns to the couple "Just as I thought it would be. I have booked the wedding next week in a church in Brooklyn."
The two stopped kissing as Harley looks at Clark "You did what?" She asks, slightly smiling, while Bruce looks confused.
Clark puts his glasses back on"Booked a church. The wedding is next week. I do believe that you two have waiting long enough."
Harley grins and squeals "Oh, my god! Thank you thank you thank you!" She said as she hugs Clark tightly.
Clark smiles softly "Anytime."
Ivy takes a step forward "I have also kept the flowers that you picked out." She said softly "It should be ready by then."
Harley looks at her "Thank you so much Red." She said as she hugs her best friend.
Harley let's go quickly after realising "Hang on. What about the guests? And Alfred? He's still recovering."
Bruce holds Harley's hands "I will email the details to everyone. Though it is a short notice but I think most of them will come. And as of Alfred, I'm sure he will be recovered by then." Bruce said.
"You think?" She asks
Bruce nods "Definitely."
Harley smiles as she hugs her fiancé, while Diana smiles at the group. Unknown to them, Diana leaves the scene, quietly. At least that's what she thought she did.
"Diana!" Harley shouted, running to Diana as fast as she can.
Diana turns to Harley in shock "Yes?"
Harley smiles at her "Thank you." She wraps her arms around Diana.
Diana, still in shock, softens as she returns the hug.
EYE-LAB
Mr Silver returns to Dick, smiling menacing at him, while Dick is feeling more and more faint by the second.
"Feeling a bit better now are we?" He turns to the machine "Lets turn down the morphine, shall we?"
Mr Silver turns the morphine down while Dick lies there staring "Wha-" he spoke weakly "What are… what are you-?"
Mr Silver looks at him mockingly "What are you? What I What, Mr Grayson?"
"What-" He said, feeling more weaker but finally found the strength to speak "What you going to do to me?"
Mr Silver smiles widened, pleased with the question "Ah! I told you you are going to bring my brother alive. With this…" he pulls out a a small file "You know what this is?"
Dick shakes his head, confused.
"This Mr Grayson is the stuff that Ras Al Ghoul used to make himself immortal. The Lazarus Pit I believe he called it." He turns to the table where he pulls out a green hair "I always wondered what would happen if I mixed a DNA with the Lazarus on a living person like you. Will it change you? Or will it fail. I always wondered that one myself."
Dick eyes squinted as he tries to see what Mr Silver is doing.
"You see my brother saw a future. I want to make it come true. And he is the key for it." He said as he places the hair in the pit "By mixing this hair of my deceased brother that Jim Gorden stole the week after his death and the Lazarus that the beautiful Talia has given me. It might bring him back." He pulls out a syringe, and uses it to pull the sample of the liquid "You see the DNA and the Lazarus should mix into your bloodstream and it should rewire your brainwaves. Alter your DNA. Change your personality if it were."
"What are you-talking about…?" Dick asks curiously.
Mr Silver turns to him and grabbing his forearm, as Dick tries to break free. He places the syringe into his arm.
"You're not just bringing the Joker back. You're going to become him." He said smiling "Just like Jekyll and Hyde."
MR SILVER OFFICE
Sarah runs to Mr Silver's Desk and grabs the phone, dialling the numbers as fast as she can. She turns around to make sure no one follows her, trying to calm down in the process.
"What do you want Silver?"
"Grandad? It's Sarah."
"Sarah? How did you get this number?"
Sarah closes her eyes "I looked into you're files and remembered your number. Listen you have to help me."
"Of course. What is happening? Has something happened to you?"
"No I'm fine." She said calmly "But it's Dick Grayson."
"Dick Grayson?"
"Nightwing, Robin, whatever you wanna call him. He's here. Please Grandad he needs your help."
There was a pause, as if Gordon is thinking for a moment. Sarah looks behind her to make sure no one is listening, feeling nervous by the second.
Gordon finally speaks "If I do this, your Mother will be in danger Sarah."
Sarah takes a deep breath "If you don't. So will everyone."
There was another pause "I be there as soon as I can."
GORDON RESIDENCE
Jim places the phone down slowly as he takes a deep breath. He then turns to his desk of draws and pulls out his gun while stares outside, making sure no one is watching him.
TO BE CONTINUED…
WELL THAT IS WHAT MR SILVER IS PLANNING! I OBVIOUSLY TOOK INSPIRATIONS TO THAT IDEA FROM BATMAN BEYOND RETURN OF THE JOKER AND ARKHAM KNIGHT GAME. :D
