A Crazy Love

The Ransom | Ch.8

Joker's P.O.V.

She was gone. All because of STUPID BATS. This was HIS. FAULT.  I mean, sure I had said and done some pretty bad things, but so has she! It's a 2 way street... but now she was gone. I had to go get her back. She was screaming, but then there was a sudden *thud* , and then there wasn't anymore noise. If she's hurt when I find her, Bats is gonna wish he was never even.....  she doesn't want you. You hurt her. That's why she tried leaving. You messed up, she doesn't want you back. SHUT IT! SHE'LL ALWAYS. ALWAYS. TAKE ME BACK. That's what you want to believe... remember, we tell the truth....   I blocked them out after that. I had to focus on a way to find Harley. She didn't leave her phone at the house. I can track it...     I began calling come of my "sources" and setting up a time for later today when I could meet with them. "I can't do it today, but we can meet tomorrow, maybe?"    "HELL. NO.  You don't get a choice. We're meeting today, and if you even try, to cross me, you're gonna regret it. Got that?"    "Yeah, ok J, we got it."
"You don't get to call me that. Joker. You, call me Joker"     "Ok... Joker."
*click*
I hung up and began thinking of a backup plan. If the tracking didn't work, I needed something to fall back on. I called my goons into Harley and I's bedroom, and tried to come up with a plan. They called some of my nightclub waiters from across town. I called my bartender. There was a special reason I chose him to work the bar. Not only could he make some great drinks, but he knew how to handle a fight, and how to track down a lowlife. Batsy fits that description perfectly....
"Hey, this is Joker. I need a favor."
"Aye, Joker! Of course, what is it?"  He said casually.
"Harley's gone."  I gave it time for that to set in. He knew Harley, and he knew she wouldn't normally leave.
"What?!?  What happened?!"   He freaked out, just like I thought he would. I wanted to yell and scream and take out my anger with him. But I had to keep this a professional conversation.
"Batman. Batman happened..." I growled.
"What are ya gonna do to find her?" He asked curiously.
"That's where you come in. I have my goons and some of the other nightclub workers on the job, but I have more faith in you."
"Joker, I'm gonna find Harley. Nothing, and nobody, will stop that. Don't even think about paying me. This isn't business anymore, this just got personal."
"Thanks, Six."

*click*

His name had an origin. Six kills together. Six robberies together. Every crime we did together, somehow had came in groups of six, so thats what I always called him. He never questioned it. Neither did I, so the name stuck.
I was ready. Harley, it's almost over. I'm coming for ya, baby.

Harley's P.O.V.

After Bats knocked me out. I didn't wake up for a while. When I did, I was in a dark room. I couldn't even tell if I was alive or not, really. Were my eyes open? Were they closed? Is this what being dead feels like?
"Someone's awake."  Said a deep, raspy voice.  So I wasn't dead, just somewhere in a dark room, with stupid Bats. "Where am I?" I asked sharply. "You can't keep me here. My Puddin's gonna come get me, and then you're gonna be sorry." I growled.
He laughed.   "You really think he's gonna come after you? He doesn't love you, Harley. He doesn't love anybody but himself." He said matter-of-factly.    "Shut up! Stop it! He DOES love me! He's says it all the time... he's just a little rough sometimes that's all..." I trailed off, vaguely starting to agree with Bats.   "Quit being stupid, Harley! You know he doesn't love you. He wouldn't abuse you if he loved you. He just wants to use you. You're just a pawn in his game."  At this point I had tears in my eyes, but he couldn't see them in the dark. I couldn't wipe them away with my hands tied to a chair. My legs were tied too, but he didn't blindfold me or gag me at any point, apparently. Weird, who doesn't blindfold their captive? I guess it's dark anyway though...   "HE DOES LOVE ME!! STOP!!"  I yelled, with tears streaming down my face.  Suddenly, I bright light was turned on, and I couldn't see. After my eyes adjusted, I saw him standing in front of me. He leaned down and kissed me before I realized what was happening. I tried to pull away, but he continued his attempt. I pursed my lips into my mouth, as to not make any contact with his lips. He gave up and stepped back. "HEY WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!?"  I yelled furiously. "I'M TAKEN, PERV!"   He just laughed and walked towards the door. "Don't think Joker's gonna come save you. He doesn't love  you. He never did. He never will."  Those were his last words before he walked out of the room, leaving me alone.
