Partner in Crime

12. Revenge

Poison Ivy's P.O.V.
"I have no interest in working with her." I plainly announced as I walk to my stairs.
"This so called AquaMarine, is willing to help us. Is that correct?" I ask as I travel up three stairs.
"Yes, Ivy." Selina responds.
"So, she wants something in return. Nobody is willing to do something for others without wanting something in return." My green eyes glare over to Selina.
"Yes, but-"
"And I am not willing to give up anything. Therefore we will not be working together. Now leave." I demand as I gradually glide up the stairs.
"Ivy please just hear me out." I hear Selina call out from the bottom of the stairs.
Selina try's to run up the stairs but the plants around my wrist grow thicker and stronger and they make their way over to the stairs, blocking so that Selina can't get in. They are so strong and mighty they can protect me from everything, except from my emotions. That's what I need protection from most.
             I need to forget the only person I ever loved, I need to forget my other half, I need to forget everything. I'm leaving to live in a secret rainforest in Brazil, I've been planning it ever since she died. I need to forget that I'm human and I need to remember I'm plant. She was the only one that made me feel human, if it wasn't for her I would've left Gotham a long time ago.
"Come on, Ivy. We need you." Selina muffles through my babies.
"I said leave, or I'll make you. I'm not afraid to hurt you or your friend." I barked out.
            "What if I told you it's about Harley?" The instant her name came out of her mouth, my emotions took ahold of me. I can't stop from missing her, I'm still human and I can never stop it.
"What about her?" I question.
"We can get revenge on the Joker." Revenge, the word is so crisp and pleasant. It makes me merry, it makes me furious, it makes me insane.
"I don't need your help with my revenge." I declare.
"Oh, really? You don't need help with the most dangerous man in Gotham?" She's right, I need help. But I don't want help from her.
              "Come on, Pam. You know you want revenge, and we can help you." I let my plants grow down and shrink. Selina comes whaling up the stairs the instant I let my babies go.
"So you agree?" Selina asks with a concerned look on her face but I knew inside she was smiling.
"Fine."
"Yes, thank you Pam." She calmly hugged me and to be honest I wanted it.
"But can I please just have time to think?"
"Oh, yeah. Of course." Selina stood still and looked around.
"I mean, can you get out?"
"Ohhh, yeah. Sorry." Her and the freak finally left. I have to admit Selina's kinda starting to grow on me. She might not be the best partner, but she has been trying to help me through all this. Even though she isn't the best helper.
AquaMarine on the other hand, why has Selina brought her into this problem? I don't know her and I don't need her. I have absolutely no use for her, she'll just get in the way. Is Selina trying to replace Harley? Because I won't let that happen, I will never let that happen.
Harley is, she's, she's gone. B-but that doesn't mean we can replace her. Why are you talking about her so plainly, Ivy? Can't you get it though your thick skull she's gone and you'll never see her again? Huh? Revenge won't do anything. But what if it does? Will it make me feel better about my self? Or make me feel worse? Well, it doesn't matter. This is for Harley not you, Ivy.
Harley would want me to get revenge, she would want him to suffer. Would she? Or would she want me to keep peace? I don't know anymore. I went from the girl who has everything planned out, to the girl who can't even tell if she wants revenge. Why did he have to kill her, why? Why?! Tears stream down my face and I'm not giving an effort to wipe them away. I'm human, and I miss her. I can't change what the past has done, but I can change the future. That's why I'm getting revenge on the Joker. But it doesn't matter, she's gone.
All the emotions kick in, they flood and overwhelm me out of no where. The emotions that I couldn't feel before attack me and they destroy me. I finally understand that I'm not going to see her again. I feel useless, it's because I am useless. Harley's gone, she's gone. Why am I here? Why am I alive? Why wasn't it me instead of her? She's innocent, she deserved nothing. I start to hyperventilate. Life has no meaning anymore. I don't deserve to be the one standing, I don't want to live. I want to die.

Hey guys I am so sorry I kept you waiting for so long! I was having a huge writing block. It's short, I know, please don't kill me. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed. Byeeeee 💚💚💚
