The drive to Arkham Asylum was brutal on my sanity. We were at a complete stand still for 20 minutes and that amount of time is bound to kill a little bit of you. The joker had quiet a way to stop traffic...literally. They were repairing the IceBerg Lounge so I had to take a different route. I guess criminals are after each other now because the IceBerg Lounge is owned by the Penguin and Joker attacked it. That means no one is safe. I didn't realise I had been clutching my purse until the calming cold press of my pepper spray reassured me. Calm down Harleen you are deadly in gymnastics, you have pepper spray, and you are skilled at boxing you are a force to be reckoned with. I pull in front of a solid steel gate and get greeted by a few security guards. I roll down my window as they had tapped on it seconds before.
"May I help you lady?' One of the three stooges asks me.
"Yes actually I was just going into Arkham Asylum to start my new job and it's Dr.Quinnzel to you three"
I reply sweetly. The three stooges laugh and go to their small box and type something into the computer. The gates open and I drive into the parking lot of the infamous Asylum. Some say that this place makes patients more insane. I don't believe this and I vow to myself to fix every patient I ever come across. I park my black Volkswagen in an end spot since the parking lot was halfway filled. Turning the key out of the ignition I grab my leather brief case and purse and swing open my car door. My heels clack onto the cement one at a time as I swing my legs out of the car. I shut my door and click my button on my keychain to be met with a confirmation beep saying it's locked. I begin to walk to the grey bricked building. A gust of wind blows tendrils of my hair from its tight bun creating a dance only the wind knew the steps to. I felt someone watching me which doesn't really happen often. I turn my body to look behind me and get slapped in the face with my own hair. Once I tame my hair I come to see nothing, but an empty parking lot. I push my glasses up to the top of my nose and keep walking. I go to the solid steel door and press a red button on a small intercom system to the side.
"Crrrrrr... Yes who are you and why are you here?"
"Harleen Quinnzel. I'm here for my new job"
As soon as the words leave my lips I hear a ding and see the light on top of the door is green. I take that as my que to walk in. Heaving the door open i walk into a room with a desk and a lady looking to be about her 60's sit in behind it. I had completely forgotten about the door and I jump when I hear it shut loudly behind me. I walk to the desk with the woman who had greyish hair and too much Botox done. She doesn't give me the satisfaction of looking at me or addressing me so I give a small cough.
"Yeeees?" She replies obviously already bored with our conversation.
"I'm Harleen and the letter I received says I need to meet with Dr.A-"
I don't even get to finish my sentence as a side door is opened rather loudly and I hear a laugh that's always intrigued me.
His laugh.
I turn to see a maniac with cuffed hands walk into the door with Batman close behind holding his cuffs to make sure he doesn't do anything funny. My breath hitches in my throat when I see him.
"See something you like toots?"
