{R} ‘We’re late…The Crime already committed, but clues have to be searched for…Evidence remains and the police isn’t perfect. We take up position on the rooftop of Crystal jewelry. The stage smells of Catwoman’s target except one thing…Dead bodies. Two weeks ago, someone made off with over 2 metric tons of Steel and electronic equipment. Over 50 pounds of plastic explosives…The police aren’t taking chances by sending in the bomb squad first. ’ –Robin looked at Batgirl right next to him, his fingers pointed towards the building, he reached to the side of his mask and tapped the button to turn on detective vision. Red Robin’s cowl was black and shaped around his head, appearing almost exactly like Batman’s with the exception of no ears attached to the back. Bandoliers crossed over his chest slipping under his shoulders to be concealed underneath his fabric of black cloth.- <c>
-Red Robin’s eyes displayed the detective vision revealing he inside of the jewelry store, allowing him to see where the traps were. Interesting enough, there were no traps at all. Red Robin opened the window from the roof and jumped down inside, tapping his helmet to turn off his detective vision and switch it to Night vision. The voice of a young 16 year old spoke.- “They basically destroyed the place. Bite marks. Claw marks. Someone or some-THING wanted something from this place…” –The jewelry was destroyed, left in various places, but multimillion dollar items were left damaged and lying within the store. –<c>
Meanwhile at ARKHAM ASYLUM…Aaron Cash was making his rounds.- “I’m gonna check on the freaks, keep a look out. As he walked towards the door he saw a something skitter through the darkness.- “What the hell was that?” –A chirping came followed by a gurgling snarl.- “What is that some kind of a…Bird? Hey-Yo…Something’s going on, alert…” –The desk man would suddenly explode and Cash would hear feet clicking against the ground, suddenly metal claws would tackle Aaron forcing him to the ground as roughly twenty pairs of small feet stomped on him as they raced past him. One by one the little critter jumped in front of Asylum doors and blew up. Cash stood up and saw only darkness around him.- “Shit!” –He grabbed his baton and raced towards an emergency cut off to the Asylum, but a breah in the wall would allow patients to escape. <c>
-The cell of Harley Quinn would be one of them that were broken into. Harley would see a two-legged green critter approach her blown open door. The critter stood on two legs, had two arms in front of its chest, green scaly skin, and a long tale. It was the size of a chicken, behind it was a group of fifteen more, they seemed to have been a pack as they quickly scurried away to another cell. Gunshots rang out.- “What the hell are those things!” “Check your fire!” “I can’t see shit in the darkness!” “Gah! They’re crawling on me! Get them off! They’re everywhere!” –Blood curling screams would be heard as the top security of the Joker’s secured room was cut into pieces.- {R}
Harley Quin: Harley had been sleeping at this point inside the cell of her asylum. After so long it had been easy in her state of mind to block out the many sounds that came along with it. Mainly the screams and yelling of other inmates or any loud banging sounds. When Aaron started his rounds down the corridors her bright blue eye's opened shining just lightly in the darkness of her cell. Moving her arms up through her blankets Harley had been clawing at the side of her head running her fingers through her long mess of blonde hair tilting her head to look up towards the glass door of her cell then towards the wall. She was silent at first not knowing what to think a rather disoriented look on her face as she adjusted herself to sit up in her bed, her right palm pressing against the hard mattress narrowing her eye's. "Who's there?" Squinting a soft smile soon played along her lips just as she'd stare directly at the large hole in the wall with that Harley pushed herself up into a sitting (c)
Harley Quin: position running her fingers through her hair and placing her hand down on the bed her smile only widened staring at the creature in the newly made doorway of her cell. Her head perked but that usual giddy grin only remained on her features even as she heard the gunshots leaning her slender frame from her bed Harley quickly jumped to her feet and scurried towards the hole in her wall peaking her head through it. She'd scan the corridors of the Asylum eye's looking up and down the halls examining them before she stepped out of her cell. "Ooo goody does this mean I can go see my Puddin now!?" Excited that would be the first thing of course to come to her mind as usual, before leaving the asylum for good Harley planned on making her way to the Joker's cell to make sure (c)
Harley Quin: he would be free and follow him after-wards if he already was that is. She quickly ran down the halls to rob the first guard she could find in the now frantic situation as inmates ran to escape the mad house, her intent to steal anything she could use as a weapon as she quickly scurried on over towards Joker's cell pushing herself past anyone whom got in her way. Now that she was free she did not plan on letting anyone stop her skipping down the halls with exitment. When Harley did finally make it to Joker's cell she came to a halting stop tilting her head up with a wide smile to notice his cell had been busted already quickly scurrying up to it the screams surrounding her showing that they had not been bothering her at all not even maing her flinch as (c)
Harley Quin: her usual chesire like smile remained with a few steps forwards..."Puddin, ya in there?" Canting her head Harley spoke softly with her last few words pressing her hand against the cold walls as she had stepped forwards. (e)
Cassandra Cain: *She moved with Red Robin. Her eyes scanning about, her facial features visable now, except the areas around her eyes which hid under a black domino mask. Her black hair was longer than she use to wear it as it would tumble down to her shoulders a little further down. Her body still clad in the classic dark mantle of the bat family. However, the bat symbol across her bust was no longer an outline but a filled in full bat symbol. Her body stood next to his as she would listen to him. Her eyes scanning over the jewewly store. Young Cain much more mature now as she would gaze about. Her black frayed cape ruffling in the wind as she would let Tim do his thing. He was the detective..sure, their time over seas, he had taught her a few tricks but overall, he was the mentor and she the mentee. "It is not a normal crime. Not a hack and slash job to grab the items...someone..was searching for something specific. This place was a selected target. Not a random robbery for greed or a quick buck.(C
Cassandra Cain: ..something bigger than petty theft. *Her eyes glancing back to the boy who was now entering his 'mode'. Almost like her when getting ready to fight, except he loved to pick through things and figure them out. He was always good at it. They complimented each other well, even now.* Do you thing Red Robin.. *As he woudl clear the drop, she would drop down after him. Her cape fluttering as her body makes a light thud to the ground. Standing up her boots would click down to the ground as she would walk lightly, as if moving through a minefield looking about. Her eyes picking up the speaking female as she would respond. "What is your name..? Do you own this place? (E)
Huntress: Her heavy boots hit the ground as she slid off of her motorcycle, hidden back in the woods outside of Arkham Asylum. Clueless of what was going on inside, she hooked her thumbs in her belt and strode through the thick trees, a scowl on her face. “Just once I want to not draw the short straw. Why do I have to get the damn outskirts? Everything happens in the inner city.” Kicking at a rock she hunched her shoulders against the wind and tried not to get creeped out as the naked tree branches around her swayed and creaked. “I’d rather be facing gunfire than be out here. Stupid patrol.” She had always thought of herself as a city girl, spending most of her time growing up at the manor or in the city itself, she belonged running the rooftops not fighting against grabby trees. Jerking her shoulder to the side as a branch snagged her cape it broke off with a deafening snap in the silence around her and made her skin crawl. “This makes me wish I had a gun with silver bullets.” -c
Huntress: Huntress joked as she came to the edge of the trees, looking at the front gate of Arkham. A howl in the distance made her back straighten and she made an effort to remind herself that there was no such things as werewolves. Sure there were men that bullets bounced off of from other planets, and a “person” like Clay Face, but there was no such thing…as…her thoughts trailed off as her brows furrowed. Was that explosions she heard? They were faint, as if underground or far away but the sounds made her forget all about the woods surrounding her and focus intently on the large place in front of her. Surely if there was something going on, there’d be an alarm going off. Reaching up to the side of her mask, she pressed a hidden button, turning on her police scanner and listened in. –e
{R} ‘The dead bodies were in the front of the store, first floor in fact, but the second floor was trashed completely. ’ –Red Robin grabbed hold of a metal sheet and pulled it away from the wall and spoke.- “Bingo…” -Red Robin tapped the external perimeter of an electrical box revealing that all of the electrical wiring was removed.- “They stole something electronic…” –Red Robin tapped his wrist console.- “Ace…I need you to look up the schematics to Crystal’s Jewelry. There are electronic conduits that were ripped out...” –Throughout the area, Black Bat would be able to see large lacerations on various objects, metal cut through and gnawed on as if it were nothing by plastic.- “Aye young man, hold on just a moment…” <C>
Arkham Asylum…watering of two lips, followed by a pucker of both being slapped together. A guard then spoke.- “Jesus…is that Harley Quinn?! How did she-…” “No…I’m not my….POOR…Harley…Shushshsh…” “Oh god! He’s got me! Please put that…” –Sparks and electricity would ignite from the security guards mouth followed by the smell of burnt flesh and smoke. The Joker’s eyes widened in horror.- “Oh no!” –His said, his words on the verge of sadness.- “I…I think I killed him…” –The remaining guard unlatched the magazine to his gun, moonlighting from the window barely allowed for the guard to see the Joker’s green hair and pale skin. The Joker heard Harley speaking from a room nearby. He spoke with a serene voice, happiness filled with joy.- “Coming my sweet…sweet…Harley.” –He snapped his teeth at the Guard jumped onto them <c>
-The Joker Straddled and said.- “Hi…I didn’t I just meet you? Well this is crazy!! Hehe Whoo whoo!” –The Joker giggled before suddenly becoming serious.- “Here’s your number.” –The Joker placed his hand onto the guard’s chest.- “I’ll call you maybe.” –The Joker’s hand slipped to the guards throat while his other hand supported the back of their head and snapped it.- “Whoo whoo! I’ll be disappointed if you don’t pick up…” –The Joker quickly ripped off the guards clothing to slip into them.- “Where’s my pudding?” –The Joker emerged into the room where his cell once sat, he was armed with a G-36 machine gun dressed in a full SWAT uniform.-{R}
Cassandra Cain: *She would watch Robin move as her eyes would move around to stare att eh walls. Her boots taking her to them, as she would run her fingers along the cuts and gnaws in the metal. Her black gloved fingers would dance over them as the white wrist and forearm wraps gave the black slender arms some color.* ...These are not human made or even machine made. Perhaps meta? *She would be confused a little bit, who would attack a jewelry stor like this. Was there a purpose to it....She would continue to walk around, looking at the cuts and gnaw marks as if trying to figure out a pattern. Listening to Robin speak she would turn around to face him* ...I don't understand... So much work..for a small time. What could they have,,,? *Her attention turns back to the markings, to try and configure a pattern together* (E)
Harley Quin: She tilted her head as usual trying to get a good look as Harley closed in on Joker's cell she jumped on the tips of her toes turning her gaze around as she heard her name being called out at first by a guard. She thought for just a second she might of been caught and have to go back inside a cell her heart racing considering she was still trying to break out of the asylum and had no weapons on her not even her original outfit but the usual asylum uniform. She'd sniff the air smelling the smell of burning flesh which did not seem to bother the crazed female in the least as she stepped into the room her eye's widened with joy and happiness at the sound of the Joker's voice as she skipped on over to him quickly her thoughts being interrupted ignoring everything else around her to focus on the male. "Awww Puddin it's really you, I knew I could see ya again!" Harley squealed in excitement the dead (c)
Harley Quin: bodies on the ground not phasing her as she just stepped over them kicking one of the guards that layed on the ground aside with the end of her foot as she skipped on over towards the Joker. She stepped up behind the guard whom just had his neck snapped tilting her head with that same smile of hers clasping both hands together before opening both arms out wide for a hug. Harley jumped ontop of the guard digging her foot into his broken neck to get over towards her love and tackle him in a playful yet childish fashion. "Here I am Mistah J, excited ta be free!" She'd giggle poking the male's nose with her index finger teasing him. Harley's gaze shifted down towards the halls of the Asylum, arms still wrapped around Joker's shoulders as she looked over towards the mess though a frown not even a straight face passed along the features of her face as she shifted her gaze right back up towards Joker. "Have any weapons for me ta use huh?"(e)
Huntress: Silence met her ears even as her heart seemed to beat just a little too hard in her chest. There was something not right, she could feel it. Reaching up to her mask she stopped the connection to the local police scanners when they came up with nothing, and went to local radios, static sounded in her ears, nothing but pure static. There had been plenty of escapes from Arkham before, but the one person in there, who was due for his quota made her blood run cold. ‘Stay away from him. He’s dangerous, and unpredictable. He’s not like the others you’d face.’ Her fathers voice spoke in her head. “New game Dad, new place, new rules.” Switching off the local connection she hesitated to hit her com system to alert the others…nothing was for sure yet, she didn’t know what was happening yet. Using her grappling gun she aimed it at the wall and fired, pulling herself up onto the wall then over it as she detached the hook and dropped down to the ground below and was left in a sea of pure darkness.-c
Huntress: If an attack had happened, why was the rest of the complex so damn quiet? The lack of power made her jittery as her eyes adjusted and she pulled a small flashlight from her belt. There had been outages before, there was protocol for the outages, a lockdown and anyone inside would be locked inside…but…”Shit.” Huntress closed her eyes for a moment then reached up, tapping her com system that linked her to Alfred, and hesitated only a moment. “Ace, I think something’s up inside of Arkham, power is out, this is me doing the responsible thing and checking in, mark this day on the calendar. Don’t see anything off yet other than the obvious but I’m investigating further.” Lowering her hand from her mask she kept her light off as she crossed the grounds, sticking to the shadows and keeping herself out of sight from any jumpy security guards.-e
{R} “My gut instinct is to say, Catwoman did this…” –Red Robin glanced to look at Black Bat when he saw something by the wall.- “What’s that?” –He pointed behind Black Bat, towards a rip in a safety deposit box, a metal claw was broken at the very tip, no bigger than a finger nail, alongside it were two slash marks, three claws total. Red Robin pulled out Cryptographic sequencer and scanned the electrical conduit while also using it to take pictures.- “Start taking pictures. Gather what info we can before the cops come in.” –Red Robin walked towards a display case with glass, taking more pictures.- “Whatever did this was very strong…Maybe Clayface or Killer Croc? But Killer Croc would’ve taken anything worth a penny!”
“Oh Harley…You’ve done it this time! You clever minx…Lets get out of here before Cash, Benjamin, or Lincoln show up! ” –The Joker pushed Harley violently away and then threw the Machine gun towards her while he ran towards Cash crawling in the hallway.- “Oh goodie…” –The Joker ran up to and grabbed Cash by the back of his pants.- “Cashy ole’ boy…” –The Joker struggled for a moment and then his patience was dried, he began beating Cash multiple times in the kidney’s and spine before the man stopped resisting. The Joker pulled off his vest a can of riot control gas along with a piece of string from his previous outfit; of course he tore it up, never wanting to be placed in that orange freak-suit again, hardly the outfit of a prince. <c>
The Joker pulled tape from his belt and then began fishing with the string, it took a mere two minutes to create the death trap, fishing the wiring through Cash’s nostrils and onto the pin of the riot control gas grenade, the Joker grinned at Cash before punching the guard in the stomach. The Joker then fished through Cash’s sockets to pull out a knife scrapped to his leg. The Joker armed a grenade from his vest and pulled the pin and placing it on Aaron’s hooked left hand, before placing the Grenade itself inside Cash’s sock, allowing the constricting nature of the sock to keep the Grenade in check, but also; sooner or later the sock would adjust and eventually detonate.- “We’ll make a pirate out of you yet, Cashy…”
Harley Quin: Rubbed her cheek against Joker's lovingly as he spoke to her pressing her slender body against him in a hug. A playful giggle escaped her lips listening to Joker speak to her. "Awww gee Mistah J ya know I would not leave this place without ya." Harley stated with her usual giggle canting her head to look up at him now. As Harley had been violently shoved out of the way by the Joker she stumbled on her feet, swaying slightly catching herself before she fell to the ground. Though she just ended up stumbeling forwards yet again as a Machine gun had been thrown her way. Jumping up off the ground with a flip she would catch the weapon in her arms landing on her feet as usual. Waving a hand over her head with a salute over her forehead. "Yes sir Mistah J sir!" She ignored his violent shove being use to his treatment already as that had barely been anything at all, after all she just viewed it as his normal affection of love or at least how he showed it. (c)
Harley Quin: Adjusting the machine gun in her arms Harley lifted the weapon up spinning on her feet to quickly follow behind Joker down the halls of the Asylum but stopped as she watched Joker start to torment Cash standing right by his side with her usual smile widening along her lips as if watching her love torture the guard pleased her or she just simply found it hilarious agreeing with most everything he did. "Awww looks like ya found him anyways huh Mistah J, oh well!" She'd snicker as she kept the large machine gun held straight up with one hand taking her free hand to pull at the side of her cheek sticking her tongue out at Aaron. "Too bad it just don't look like your lucky day there huh mistah cashy!" She'd laugh teasing as well but tried not to step in Jokers way as he tortured his victim. (c)
Harley Quin: She would step around the male taking aim with the machine gun and pointing the barrel directly at Cash's skull. "Hey Puddin don'tchya think I should get outta my uniform to and into somethin more comfortable!" Harley leaned herself slightly against Joker as she kept the weapon aimed at the guard tilting her head back to look up at his face with a toothy grin. (e)
-The Joker stood up and placed his hand on his chest looking down at Cash’s backside.- “Well, Cashy…I’d love to stick around BUT...If I do, I’m afraid the Bats will miss the surprise...” –The Joker’s voice would deepen and a feral growl escaped his lips, sharp , and spine chilling.- “Let’s hope for your sake…The Bats comes to rescue y-…” –Suddenly a Tyrannosaurus Rex bit into the Asylum swallowing the Joker within its mouth. The Tyrannosaurus lifted its head and began walking away from the Asylum. The Joker would cry in frustration and anger.- “Hey! What’s the big idea?! Get me out of here you over grown Clifford!” –The Large movement of the lizard effortlessly moved through the trees and quickly picked up speed as it was heading towards South Gotham, towards the down town gang territories that was just a few miles away. The Little dinosaurs began following behind quickly racing past Harley Quinn, like little chickens bouncing as they ran past her.-
Harley Quin: Quickly flipping herself back on her feet Harley paused her eye's quickly widened even more with surprise as her Joker had been taken away by a large dinosaur out of no where. With a low growl that escaped her lips Harley as usual would not stand for it even as the little monsters ran past her feet. Sprinting forwards her eye's narrowed forwards running past Cash and over his body kicking her feet against him. "Hey you over grown monster come back here with my Puddin!!" Harley shifted the aim on her weapon up towards the dinosaur as she hurried down the halls of the Asylum heading for an opening to leave and chase after the Tyrannosaurus Rex pushing and shoving against anyone who got in her way as fast as she could, at this point she could not afford to get herself locked back up again panick filled (c)
Harley Quin: her mind as her heart started to race scared and worried for the Jokers saftey as she ran as fast as she could kicking dirt up along the ground. "Come back here with my Puddin now!!" The crazed female screamed on the top of her lungs her voice echoing throughout the asylum walls before she finally made it outside giving chase. (e)

Red Robin opened the window from the roof and jumped down inside, tapping his helmet to turn off his detective vision and switch it to Night vision.

She'd sniff the air smelling the smell of burning flesh which did not seem to bother the crazed female in the least as she stepped into the room her eye's widened with joy and happiness at the sound of the Joker's voice as she skipped on over to him quickly her thoughts being interrupted ignoring everything else around her to focus on the male. "Awww Puddin it's really you, I knew I could see ya again!" Harley squealed in excitement the dead (c)
Harley Quin: bodies on the ground not phasing her as she just stepped over them kicking one of the guards that layed on the ground aside with the end of her foot as she skipped on over towards the Joker. She stepped up behind the guard whom just had his neck snapped tilting her head with that same smile of hers clasping both hands together before opening both arms out wide for a hug. Harley jumped ontop of the guard digging her foot into his broken neck to get over towards her love and tackle him in a playful yet childish fashion. "Here I am Mistah J, excited ta be free!" She'd giggle poking the male's nose with her index finger teasing him. Harley's gaze shifted down towards the halls of the Asylum, arms still wrapped around Joker's shoulders as she looked over towards the mess though a frown not even a straight face passed along the features of her face as she shifted her gaze right back up towards Joker. "Have any weapons for me ta use huh?"(e)
Huntress: Silence met her ears even as her heart seemed to beat just a little too hard in her chest. There was something not right, she could feel it. Reaching up to her mask she stopped the connection to the local police scanners when they came up with nothing, and went to local radios, static sounded in her ears, nothing but pure static. There had been plenty of escapes from Arkham before, but the one person in there, who was due for his quota made her blood run cold. ‘Stay away from him. He’s dangerous, and unpredictable. He’s not like the others you’d face.’ Her fathers voice spoke in her head. “New game Dad, new place, new rules.” Switching off the local connection she hesitated to hit her com system to alert the others…nothing was for sure yet, she didn’t know what was happening yet. Using her grappling gun she aimed it at the wall and fired, pulling herself up onto the wall then over it as she detached the hook and dropped down to the ground below and was left in a sea of pure darkness.-c
Huntress: If an attack had happened, why was the rest of the complex so damn quiet? The lack of power made her jittery as her eyes adjusted and she pulled a small flashlight from her belt. There had been outages before, there was protocol for the outages, a lockdown and anyone inside would be locked inside…but…”Shit.” Huntress closed her eyes for a moment then reached up, tapping her com system that linked her to Alfred, and hesitated only a moment. “Ace, I think something’s up inside of Arkham, power is out, this is me doing the responsible thing and checking in, mark this day on the calendar. Don’t see anything off yet other than the obvious but I’m investigating further.” Lowering her hand from her mask she kept her light off as she crossed the grounds, sticking to the shadows and keeping herself out of sight from any jumpy security guards.-e
{R} “My gut instinct is to say, Catwoman did this…” –Red Robin glanced to look at Black Bat when he saw something by the wall.- “What’s that?” –He pointed behind Black Bat, towards a rip in a safety deposit box, a metal claw was broken at the very tip, no bigger than a finger nail, alongside it were two slash marks, three claws total. Red Robin pulled out Cryptographic sequencer and scanned the electrical conduit while also using it to take pictures.- “Start taking pictures. Gather what info we can before the cops come in.” –Red Robin walked towards a display case with glass, taking more pictures.- “Whatever did this was very strong…Maybe Clayface or Killer Croc? But Killer Croc would’ve taken anything worth a penny!”
“Oh Harley…You’ve done it this time! You clever minx…Lets get out of here before Cash, Benjamin, or Lincoln show up! ” –The Joker pushed Harley violently away and then threw the Machine gun towards her while he ran towards Cash crawling in the hallway.- “Oh goodie…” –The Joker ran up to and grabbed Cash by the back of his pants.- “Cashy ole’ boy…” –The Joker struggled for a moment and then his patience was dried, he began beating Cash multiple times in the kidney’s and spine before the man stopped resisting. The Joker pulled off his vest a can of riot control gas along with a piece of string from his previous outfit; of course he tore it up, never wanting to be placed in that orange freak-suit again, hardly the outfit of a prince. <c>
The Joker pulled tape from his belt and then began fishing with the string, it took a mere two minutes to create the death trap, fishing the wiring through Cash’s nostrils and onto the pin of the riot control gas grenade, the Joker grinned at Cash before punching the guard in the stomach. The Joker then fished through Cash’s sockets to pull out a knife scrapped to his leg. The Joker armed a grenade from his vest and pulled the pin and placing it on Aaron’s hooked left hand, before placing the Grenade itself inside Cash’s sock, allowing the constricting nature of the sock to keep the Grenade in check, but also; sooner or later the sock would adjust and eventually detonate.- “We’ll make a pirate out of you yet, Cashy…”
Harley Quin: Rubbed her cheek against Joker's lovingly as he spoke to her pressing her slender body against him in a hug. A playful giggle escaped her lips listening to Joker speak to her. "Awww gee Mistah J ya know I would not leave this place without ya." Harley stated with her usual giggle canting her head to look up at him now. As Harley had been violently shoved out of the way by the Joker she stumbled on her feet, swaying slightly catching herself before she fell to the ground. Though she just ended up stumbeling forwards yet again as a Machine gun had been thrown her way. Jumping up off the ground with a flip she would catch the weapon in her arms landing on her feet as usual. Waving a hand over her head with a salute over her forehead. "Yes sir Mistah J sir!" She ignored his violent shove being use to his treatment already as that had barely been anything at all, after all she just viewed it as his normal affection of love or at least how he showed it. (c)
Harley Quin: Adjusting the machine gun in her arms Harley lifted the weapon up spinning on her feet to quickly follow behind Joker down the halls of the Asylum but stopped as she watched Joker start to torment Cash standing right by his side with her usual smile widening along her lips as if watching her love torture the guard pleased her or she just simply found it hilarious agreeing with most everything he did. "Awww looks like ya found him anyways huh Mistah J, oh well!" She'd snicker as she kept the large machine gun held straight up with one hand taking her free hand to pull at the side of her cheek sticking her tongue out at Aaron. "Too bad it just don't look like your lucky day there huh mistah cashy!" She'd laugh teasing as well but tried not to step in Jokers way as he tortured his victim. (c)
Harley Quin: She would step around the male taking aim with the machine gun and pointing the barrel directly at Cash's skull. "Hey Puddin don'tchya think I should get outta my uniform to and into somethin more comfortable!" Harley leaned herself slightly against Joker as she kept the weapon aimed at the guard tilting her head back to look up at his face with a toothy grin. (e)
-The Joker stood up and placed his hand on his chest looking down at Cash’s backside.- “Well, Cashy…I’d love to stick around BUT...If I do, I’m afraid the Bats will miss the surprise...” –The Joker’s voice would deepen and a feral growl escaped his lips, sharp , and spine chilling.- “Let’s hope for your sake…The Bats comes to rescue y-…” –Suddenly a Tyrannosaurus Rex bit into the Asylum swallowing the Joker within its mouth. The Tyrannosaurus lifted its head and began walking away from the Asylum. The Joker would cry in frustration and anger.- “Hey! What’s the big idea?! Get me out of here you over grown Clifford!” –The Large movement of the lizard effortlessly moved through the trees and quickly picked up speed as it was heading towards South Gotham, towards the down town gang territories that was just a few miles away. The Little dinosaurs began following behind quickly racing past Harley Quinn, like little chickens bouncing as they ran past her.-
Harley Quin: Quickly flipping herself back on her feet Harley paused her eye's quickly widened even more with surprise as her Joker had been taken away by a large dinosaur out of no where. With a low growl that escaped her lips Harley as usual would not stand for it even as the little monsters ran past her feet. Sprinting forwards her eye's narrowed forwards running past Cash and over his body kicking her feet against him. "Hey you over grown monster come back here with my Puddin!!" Harley shifted the aim on her weapon up towards the dinosaur as she hurried down the halls of the Asylum heading for an opening to leave and chase after the Tyrannosaurus Rex pushing and shoving against anyone who got in her way as fast as she could, at this point she could not afford to get herself locked back up again panick filled (c)
Harley Quin: her mind as her heart started to race scared and worried for the Jokers saftey as she ran as fast as she could kicking dirt up along the ground. "Come back here with my Puddin now!!" The crazed female screamed on the top of her lungs her voice echoing throughout the asylum walls before she finally made it outside giving chase. (e)
