Harley awoke with her head laying on Jester's stomach. Ivy's was on his chest. One of his arms held Ivy, his other rested on Harley's shoulder. Harley notices that the sun is shining and that meant Lucy would soon be waking up. She would need a fresh diaper and some breakfast. Harley sits up, causing Jester to shift his weight without waking.

Harley quietly gets out of the bed and pulls on a robe over her naked body. She then leaves the room and crosses the hall to Lucy's room. She flicks on the light switch, but nothing happens. She brushes it off as a blown lightbulb. With a smile on her face she walks over to Lucy's crib.

"Rise an shine sleepy head," she gleefully says.

But when she looks down into the crib she can see that Lucy's not in it. Her first thought was that she and Mistah J were probably eating 'magically delicious' Lucky Charms. Or perhaps they were watching cartoons. So she decides to go join them.

She then leaves the nursery and walks to the living room. As she gets closer she can smell something. Paint obviously. Maybe her Mistah J was teaching Lucy some art skills. But then she saw the bright green words spray painted on jthe wall...

Go Fuck Yourselves...

What was happening? Had he taken Lucy just to punish her? Harley's heart àstartedstarted 2jstarted pounding with the realization of what was going on. She was the one who had said it first. Now her Mistah J was getting back at her.

She reaches under a lampshade to see the message on the wall more clearly. It clicks on, but no light illuminates. Harley looks confused for a moment. She then turned her attention to the stove in the kitchen. The screen for the digital clock on it was black. There was no electricity. Harley sighs and assumes that it's another brownout.

Harley walks back to Jester and Ivy's room. "Hey, you guys aren't going to believe this," she tells them.

Jester props himself up on his elbows, "Won't believe what?" He drowsily asks.

"Mistah J took Lucy an left. But not before leavin' us a message," Harley tells them.

"What's the message say?" Jester asks with a yawn.

Harley rolls her eyes, "This is all my fault. He's payin' me back fer last night when we rejected him."

Ivy tilts her head and stares at Harley. "Harls, what's the message say?"

"It says, Go Fuck Yourselves."

Jester sighs and runs his hand over his green bed head. "Fuck. He's going to come after me and kill me," he says distantly."

Ivy's arms go around Jester, He's not going to kill you. Your family, his twin brother, and frankly that's too convient for him. You're the perfect body double. He needs you, he won't kill you," she assures him.

"Family?" Jester's green brows bunch together, "Well that didn't keep him from murdering our half brother, did it? So excuse me if I can't dismiss the possibility."
