It was on the news. Everywhere. Everyone knew. Harley Quinn had been killed. The headlines of every news article was about Harley. Ivy couldn't avoid it. It was bad enough she had to witness her dying. Now she had to see it everywhere.

Ivy kept staring at the casket that was about to be put in the ground. She kept hoping that Harley would just rise out and scream "April fools."

Joker was a fugitive. Harley made many friends and those many friends where now searching for their friend's killer. But everyone expected it. Everyone knew that Joker would eventually kill her. He wouldn't let his creation run loose.

She looked around. Every Gothamite came. It didn't matter if they were dangerous. They loved that crazy girl. The Justice League didn't bother to arrest them. Neither did Gordon.

She felt like breaking down. She had just proposed to her and now she's dead.

"Poison Ivy?"

Ivy turned around and saw Sharon and Nick. Harleys parents.

"You're Harley's parents, right?"

Sharon sighed. "Yes, we are." Sharon glanced at the casket which was open and saw her little girl. She started sobbing as Nick reassured her. Ivy walked away. She didn't had to see people crying already. She cried enough yesterday.

As she was walking among people, many knew about the engagement, wished her luck, she saw Nightwing.

Her affair.

Then the whole Justice League appeared. Fuck.

Batman came first, the rest hesitating. She walked up to him.

"What are you doing here?"

"We're here for the funeral. If we can." Ivy hesitated, then nodded and left.

The funeral was about to start and she wasn't gonna fight with Batman right now.

Ivy was staying at a tree. The funeral was done, and people were talking. The Justice League left. "important hero stuff" whatever that might be.

"Pamela..." she turned around and saw Selina. They both hugged. Ivy started crying on her shoulder. They were the unstoppable trio. Now, they're a duo. "How are you holding up?"

"Well, I proposed to her and on the same day I witnessed her murder. So, not good."

Selina sighed. "Everyone loved Harley. I spoke to Nightwing and he said he didn't spoke to her after Batman caught them in Harleys bedroom. He did say he misses her."

Ivy smiled. "Who doesn't." she sighed. "Selina, I miss her."

"Me too Pam, me too."

_____

"Pammy, how do I look?"

"Perfect."

The girls were ready to crash Bruce Wayne's gala. The unstoppable trio. The 3 best friends.

Selina came in the bunker dressed in a gorgeous black dress. "Joker is letting you?"

Harley nods. "Yeah. Why?"

"He's kinda possessive, don't you think?"

"Puddin? No."

Selina glanced at Ivy who was worried. She loved Harley with every fibre but she hated Joker.

Harley walked away, leaving Selina and Ivy. "I'm worried for her."

Ivy sighed. "Me too. She's my best friend, but I hate the Joker. He's so possessive and an asshole. He doesn't care for her."

"But will be there for her forever."

"And we will protect her at all costs."

"Pinky swear."

______

Ivy thought back at that day. She walked over to the casket. Most people left. She stayed. She put her hand on the casket, tears finally coming.

"I'm sorry we couldn't protect you." she slid down the walls of the casket and sat on the grass. "Please come back." Selina came sit next to Ivy.

Both of them, crying.

Ivy woke up. Next to her an empty place. She stood up and walked to the graveyard and saw her tombstone.
