[Jonah's POV]
I look at the letter and see it's from Arkham. So I go to class which is a study hall. When I get there, I open the letter.
[Letter Begins]
"Hey, Jonah, please call me Ivy. To answer your question, I'll have to say I respect plants and hate to see them hurt. So I protect them like my children. Now for you, what are you a nerd on, and also are you trying to perv on me? I am one of the hottest villains."
[Letter Ends]
I was shocked. Have men hurt her so often that she suspects that? But I was happy for her answer about why she is a criminal. Soon classes started and ended. I went to my criminal justice class, where Commissioner Gordon was there.
Gordon: "Hello everyone, as most of you know, I am Commissioner Gordon. Today your teacher is passing out permission slips for next month."
I raise my hand.
Gordon: "Yes, young man."
Jonah: "What for?"
Gordon: "You'll be visiting your PenPals in person. By the time the trip comes, you'll have already written to them multiple times. If you dont mind me asking, who did you get?"
Jonah: "Poison Ivy."
Gordon: "Oh, wonderful. After this trip, as long as you're still penpals with them, you'll be put on the visitation list. That is all."
He then walks out.
Teacher: "Now, if you wish to write back to your pen pal, you are free to."
I get excited and begin writing.
[Pamela's POV]
It is the next day, and I'm awaiting a response from Jonah. Soon Harley walks in with my mail.
Harley: "Hey Ivy, I got your mail."
I waste no time in grabbing it. I then opened it and started reading.
[Letter Begins]
"Hey, Ivy. It's so weird to call you that. No, I am not a perv, but I do have to say that you could do those things legally. Anyways I dont know if you know, but I'm going to meet you in person next month. Can't wait to see you in person, my Botanical Beauty."
[Leter Ends]
I blush when I read the last bit, but I guess Harley saw it.
Harley: "So who's the crush?"
Pamela: "What are you talking about?"
Harley: "You blush when you read those letters, and you jump every time I come to give you your mail. So who's the crush?"
Pamela: "This 17 year old at Gotham City High he's so sweet, and I'm going to be able to see him next month. But it would never work."
Harley: "Why not? If he's 17, then that means he's graduating next year and will be 18. But, of course, you're 24, so it's not much of an age difference."
Pamela: "I have to get released."
I then leave to speak to the guard. When I get there, I knock on the door.
Guard: "Come in."
I walk in.
Guard: "Ah, ms Isley. How may I help you?"
Pamela: "I want to file for release."
Guard: "Okay, well, we'll have to talk to the commissioner and see what he says, okay."
Pamela: "Okay."
He called Gordon down, and I explain my request. He then asks the guard to leave.
Gordon: "What's the real reason?"
Pamela: "What?"
Gordon: "Come on, Ivy, why do things legally when all you need is a seed, and you could bust out."
Pamela: "I can't explain it. At least not yet."
Gordon: "Oaky, but let me know as soon a possible."
Pamela: "Yes, sir. Also, could you take a picture of me?"
Gordon: "Alright."
He takes a photo of me, and luckily there is a one-hour development place near Arkham. When he gives it to me, I send it with my letter to Jonah.
[Gordon's POV]
I was near the bat signal, and he appeared.
Batman: "What's wrong?"
Gordon: "I think Ivy is changed."
Batman: "What do you mean?"
Gordon: "She's met, someone."
Batman: "What do you mean "met someone."?"
Gordon: "Good-looking kid. He's a junior at Gotham City High."
Batman: "And?"
Gordon: "She's doing things legally. She came in and asked for a release."
Batman: "Find out why she truly wants to be released, and I'll speak on her behalf."
Gordon: "Got it."
