Abbylon Firefeather's POV
I open the door to the base, blowing a piece of hair away from my face. "Fauna, I'm back!" I set the groceries down on the counter and look around. "Fauna?" Frowning, I walk into the living room and look at her computer setup. "Huh......" I run a hand through my hair and glance a the ground. "What the...." Bending down, I touch a few fingers to a dark substance splattered on the ground and straighten up, examining it. Blood. Hurriedly I wipe my hand off on the wall and get into Fauna's rolling chair, bringing up the security cameras on her computer. Clicking through various times of the day, I stop as I see someone standing outside the base. Nigma? What was he doing here? I watch the exchange on the cameras, then watch as Nigma exits. Someone else enters soon after he leaves. Harley. She hits Fauna in the back of the head with her bat, then orders a few goons to grab her. I push myself away from the computer and grab my cloak. There's gonna be hell to pay.
Hurrying out of the base, I accidentally crash into someone heading in the opposite direction. "Oof! Oh, i'm so sorry! I didn't see you there!" I rub my head and look up. "Nigma? What are you doing here?" Nigma blinks. "Im sorry, who are you?" I shake my head. "I'm Abbylon Firefeather, Fauna's new roomate. And speaking of, I have to go. Fauna's been taken." I sweep past him, quickly making my way towards the factory where Joker has been known to hide out. Footsteps sound behind me and Nigma pulls up next to me. "What? Taken? By who?" I glace at him, still walking at a fast pace. "Harley knocked her out just a few minutes after you left the base. I saw it on the security cameras. So I assume that she's being held at the Joker's factory." Nigma paled. "Oh dear. We'd better get moving then." Together we started running towards Joker's factory.
Huffing, we passed through the center of Gotham city. And that's when it happened. Joker's face showed up on the big screen, smiling as always. "Well hello, Gotham! Having lovely evenings, I hope? Well, it's about to get even better! Because tonight, a star is being born!" He moves the camera so reveal a tied-up and unconcious Fauna. Nigma and I freeze, staring up at the screen. "Of course, this isn't a live feed, so everything you see happening has already happened. So, without further ado, lets cut to when she wakes up, shall we?"
No words are exchanged as we watch Joker torture our friend. I feel numb as I watch her knock over the camera in her last-ditch effort to escape, only to be shot at the last second.
In the distance, Vines shoot up from the ground and begin wreaking havoc.
