They reached the top of the stairs "Stay here, I'll be right back" Rick said to the squad as he entered a door to go pick up this so called 'target'. Harley was the first to speak "I wonder what this thing is?" She said rubbing her finger under her chin as if she were thinking it over. She clicked her fingers "I know! I bet it's Batsy and he's gonna drag all our asses back to prison!" She laughed but no one else joined in, not even The Joker. He was too busy texting someone to be interested. "Ehem, Puddin? Watcha doin?" She asked standing on her tip toes to get a better view. He hid the phone back in his pocket and patted her head to which he got a small pout "Nothing Pooh, would soldier boy hurry up!" He growled and began smoothing his hair back, which is what he did to calm his nerves in situations such as this.

After a few more minutes Rick came back out followed by the woman that brought them all here in the first place, Amanda Waller. The Joker was first to pull out the gun from his holster "Tsk, tsk, tsk, you ain't very smart Wally." He snarled through gritted teeth keeping the gun trained on her forehead. Rick was about to intervene but Waller put up her hand to stop him "Look you can do this and die, or you can still help me and live? It's your choice Mr.Joker" The Joker held the gun there having a little argument in his head of what he was going to do. With a frustrated growl he put the gun back in his holster. The rest of the squad didn't even try to take their weapons out knowing they would get the same cold reaction.

Harley had her eyes narrowed chewing on her bubblegum exaggeratedly. "So what do we do now then?" She asked, eyes locking with Amanda's who turned around at her question. She didn't look nervous or anything for someone who was in the middle of the most feared people in America. "You have to bring me to the roof, a helicopter will be arriving soon." She said half the sentence while she was walking away, Rick scampering after her. The team followed the mysterious woman. The Joker had taken his phone out again "Oh Wally, you have no idea what your doing.." He sighed with a smirk playing on his lips as he jogged after the group.

They came to a staircase where Harley looked down over the railing and had a flash-back.

She was standing over vats of green acidic chemicals. The Joker was standing behind her and began to walk forward "Question. Would you die for me?" Almost immediately she answered back "Yes" He began to think "No, no that's too easy.... Would you-- Would you live for me?" He asked after taking a few seconds to think. He was wearing a red shirt that only had a few buttons done leaving an exposed chest showing off some tattoos. Over that he had a grey smart jacket. He began to sway his hips from side to side as Harleen began to think. "Yes" she answered again. She was wearing a blue shirt, her hair done messy and tight jeans. He smiled and placed his hand with the tattooed grin over her mouth "Careful, do not say this oath thoughtlessly." He looked into her eyes and all he could see was complete and utter love and desire. "Desire becomes surrender and surrender becomes, Power" He rushed the words out in one breath. "Do you want this?" He asked and received a straight forward answer "I do" almost like a wedding proposal.He removed his hand and drew his finger down her lip seductively. "Say it, say it. Pretty, Pretty, Pretty--" Harleen eagerly finished him "Please" It came out almost as a command and a whimper. He smirked and whispered "Oh God your so...Good"

He brushed her forward closer to the ledge. She turned around to face her back to the acids and looked over at him. He was breathing heavily like an animal stalking his prey, his next victim. Harleen took a deep breath and pushed herself over the edge. She could feel her life rush past before her very own eyes, this was the last time she was ever going to be Harleen again. She dived into the chemicals, stinging at first but then it all went numb and she was knocked out cold.
The Joker looked down from above and began to walk back towards the stairs, planning on leaving, but something changed his mind. Someone. He growled and rolled his head on his neck, no one had ever made him change his mind about something. He turned on his heel and flung his jacket off leaving just the blood red shirt. He dived into the water after her and began feeling his way around the tank. He felt a limp body and picked it up bringing it back to the surface. She was just barely breathing and her skin was as pale as snow. The clothes she was wearing began to tear off from the acid and his clothes mixed into her hair. This left the ends of her platinum blonde hair dyed at the tips with blue and a light shade of red. She began breathing at a steadier pace, luckily. The Joker leaned in and kissed her lips and she took a gasp and opened her delicate blue eyes. She looked shocked at first but relaxed a bit as she saw her Puddin' holding her in his arms. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him with more passion causing him to break away and laugh into the night sky.

She clicked back into reality as she heard shuffling behind her. She took out her gun and placed it on no other than her Puddin's forehead. But, she kept it there still shaken by the vision she had just seen. The Joker slowly brought his hand to the gun and wrapped his palm around the barrel. He had no smile on his face as he brought the gun down and gently pulled it from her grasp. She just watched with a blank stare at his face, his most recognisable features. The green hair, silver girl, red lips and the 'damaged' tattoo on his forehead. She lost herself in thought but suddenly pulled him in for an embrace. Shocked by this The Joker took a second before he too pulled her in. The two clowns stood there hugging one another till a cough from above ruined the moment. Joker looked up to see Boomerang standing awkwardly on the next set of stairs beside them. He was stuttering "Ehm, w-we have to go to the roof now" He said with his Australian accent and holding a beer can in his hand. Harley broke away and smiled at him through teary, blurred eyes. She nodded and he left, The Joker walked in front of her smoothing back his hair "I swear if we get one more interruption--" Harley placed her finger over his lips to stop him from talking "We'll have all the time in the world when we're at home.." She removed her finger and gave him a quick peck on the cheek and ran off up the stairs to find everyone else. The Joker thought for a second and followed her.
