13. Sirens Don't Fall

(Picture isn't done because I was too impatient to finish it)

CatWomans P.O.V
It's been a day since we talked to Ivy
about the whole revenge thing. I have a feeling that she either doesn't want to do it, or she's depressed again. I asked Aqua to stay back, I wanted to talk to Ivy alone. I know Ivy hates her now, but she'll grow on her. Aqua told me her back story and it sounds a lot like Ivy's. I know it's stupid of me to believe that Aqua will actually help us, but I don't know she just seems really genuine.
  But of course she wants something in
return, and Ivy was right about that. Nobody is willing to do something without anything in return. Everyone is guilty of it. Aqua wants her own revenge, that's what she wants in return. I've arrived at Pam's, big blinds cover
the windows, leaving no room for light to get out. I knock on the door and there's no response.
Another, after another, after another and still no response. Time for a break in. I'm glad I wore my suit today. I smack out my whip and swing in up to the roof, twisting it around a steel pole. I thrust my body up, swinging onto the roof. My feet grip to the shingles of the rooftop. I run across to the other side and glance under the roof, checking for a window. The window is covered with wood, ha, you can't stop me that easy, Ivy. My hands rap around the edge of the roof and I let my body swing into the window, breaking it instantly.
I land in Ivy's room, and cover
my body and head from the glass and wood, with my hands. It's pitch black but I can still tell this is her room. I search for a light switch and eventually find it, flicking it on. The light blares into my eyes causing me to squint. I listen for any movements coming from the other rooms, nothing. I travel as slow and steady as I can keeping me from making any noise.
I peek my head through the door
that leads to Ivy's bathroom. I flick on the light and check the entire room, not leaving anything unchecked. I check every room, and still nothing. The one room I haven't check yet is her lab. It's bolted shut without windows. The door is white and made out of steel, there's almost no way to get in. I could try to burn the bolts from the outside but that would be a tricky game. The only other option I can think of right now is finding the keys.
I've checked for keys throughout
the house when I was searching for Ivy but never found anything. That means she's either in there hiding with the keys or she left with her keys. But where did she go? Revenge? Yesterday she said she wanted revenge on her own. She can't kill the joker on her own.
I know I sound desperate but I need
to call up Bruce. He could help me find her or the Joker. I know I could do it on my own but I can't waste anytime, I need to find her fast.

Poison Ivy's P.O.V
After my moment of depression
I knew that I needed to get revenge, for Harley. I can't let Selina help me, she can't get in the way. This time I'm not holding back anything, the Joker will get what he deserves. He stole my life and soul from me, my only way to happiness, my only way to connect with the humans. Without her my connection is lost and I can't control myself. Without her I'm a monster, without her I could destroy city after city. She was the one who was holding me back.
Now I'm free, now I can reach
what I couldn't before. I don't have anything holding me back, I don't have anything stopping me. These humans mean nothing. I can overrule them, I can destroy them, and I could be free, just me and the plants. That's all I ever wanted to do, and now I can do it. But I won't. I won't do it because of Harley. This city, this world, it all gives me memories of her. She is in all of these objects, all of the memories are in these walls. I can't destroy them, Harley wouldn't want me too. It's funny, even though she's gone I can still feel her like she's right next to me, fighting side by side.
She is here, she's here to help me fight.
She's telling me to keep going, she's the one that's keeping me going. So I'm gonna fight, for Harley.

CatWoman's P.O.V
I called him. I had to, okay? I can't
let Pam get hurt, physically anyways. She's already been through so much. First she thinks her best friend dies, then finds out she's actually alive but within hours, actually dies. I just want to help her, but I can't do it on my own. Bruce will help me track down the Joker, that's where Pam is probably off to. I don't want that clown to cause anymore damage.
Now, Aqua. We think she
can help, but Bruce needs to get her background information. She's new to this city, so we don't have any information on her yet. She did tell me her backstory but I can't just believe it. We need proof.
After some information was looked up
we found out a lot. Her original name is Chleo Mar, which she told me AquaMarine was her one and only name. She's 22 as of right now. Here's something that I definitely didn't know, she controls the sea. She told me she always loved the water but never told me that she has powers. I wouldn't expect her to tell me, though. She's only known me for like 4 days.
We looked more on her powers,
her tattoos are... actual creatures. They can come out of her body when she demands. That I found a little strange. She can control the water, and is still practicing to control more creatures that live in the sea. For now she can control her tattoos, the water, small clams and small squid.
She has some criminal records.
One of them was for killing her parents, she got let off for self defense. Others are for shop lifting and little things like that. We've decided she could help, but she's backup. I still need to talk to her about it.
We brought her here to the BatCave
but she was unconscious the whole time. She's probably awake by now, we tied her up in a room. I make my way over to the room, I hear faint screams. I open the door and I see her tied up struggling to get out.
"Don't worry, I'm not gonna hurt you."
I start untying her. The rope snaps and she goes flying to the door.
"Na-ah. You're not leaving, yet." I swing
my whip over to her, tying her up so she can't move. She stops trying to run and sighs.
"You're helping us, okay?
Remember the deal?" I question. She rolls her eyes.
"Yeah, I didn't know we
would be fighting with Batman!" Her voice raises and I laugh.
"Aww are you scared of him?
Trust me, he ain't gonna hurt you." I smile then put on a shocked face.
"Unless, unless-" I look around
the room as if I had just seen a ghost.
"Unless what?!" Aqua yells. I start
laughing and pull her out of my whip's grip. Ha, that rhymed.
"I'm joking. Gosh you're so gullible."
I laugh and aqua let's off a sign in relief.
"Shut up." Aqua rolls her eyes at me and I tie my whip around her wrists. I pull her out of the room and toward Batman.
"Hey! Let me go, I'm not a dog!" She complains. Ha, imagine a cat pulling a dog.
"Br-Batman. She's right here." I yell out to him, he keeps his face on his computer.
"Ugh, Batmaaannn." I yell out. I turn back to Aqua and her face is still full of worry. Ha, scaredy cat.
I pull her up to Batman's huge chair and tap Bruce's shoulder. No response, wow.
"Excuse me?" I whine to Bruce.
"I'm busy, she's not necessary at this moment." He keeps his stern face of the monitor. He's so serious, it's annoying. I look back at Aqua and bring her back to the room.
"I guess you're 'not necessary at the moment'" I sarcastically tell Aqua.
"Why am I even here then?" She asks
"I thought you would help us but Batman is busssyyyy." I roll my eyes and I watch Aqua sigh in relief.
"Why are you so scared of him?" I half giggle.
She just rolls her eyes and ignores me. Sirens start buzzing through my ears startling me. Red flashes in my eyes like laser. I stand up and run to Batman, while dragging Aqua.
"WHAT'S GOING ON?!" Aqua screams, her words are hardly audible. Ignore her and keep running.
I make my way to Bruce and he is still sitting in his gigantic chair.
"BATMAN!" I yell in his ear, he doesn't even flinch. He keeps typing on his computer as if nothing were happening.
The sirens and the blinking lights die off and Bruce stays how he is. I sigh and tap his shoulder.
"Excuse me." I hiss.
"False alarm." He keeps his face toward the monitor as he speaks. I look back at Aqua, who has fear in her eyes.
I roll my eyes at her and sit next to Bruce.
"Come on, what's going on?" I ask him calmly.
"I said false alarm." His voice deepens and I can hear anger starting to build up. I stand up and walk back towards Aqua which still has her hands tied by my whip. We walk back to the small, unfurnished room and sit down.
"You have powers, huh?" I ask her. Her face changes immediately and she looks up with fright.
"H-how do you know?" Her eyes are still filled with fear. Come on, she's such a baba.
"I'm literally with Batman, the biggest superhero in Gotham. I think I can learn a thing or two from him." She signs and looks down at her feet.
"Yeah, what else do you know?" Her eyes stick to the floor as she speaks.
"You killed your parents?" I question.
"Yeah..." She responds lightly.
"So was your green friend and the dead girl, ya know... girlfriends?" Her face looks back up to me. I almost forgot she was... dead. I don't like thinking about it, it just doesn't feel like real life. How could it happen? How could a siren fall? Sirens don't fall, but if they do they get back up. They always find a way, we ALWAYS find a way! I sigh.
"No, but Ivy did love her. Ha, she still does." I answer after a long period of silence.
"I'm sorry, for what happened." Her eyes meet mine and I look back at the floor. I don't find a way to respond so we just sit in silence. The red flickers through my eyes again and the ringing of the alarm floods my ears. Aqua and I pounce to our feet and run out the door, towards Bruce, again.
This time he's typing faster than before. His eyes move all around the screen and his fingers move viciously. I place my hand on his huge arm and rest it there.
"What's going on?" I ask quickly as I move my eyes towards the monitor. He ignores me, as usual, and keeps typing.
"Fine." I say and let go of him arm.
After the buzzing and blinking goes away, again, his typing stops.
"We found Joker."

THANKS guys for reading!!! Hope you enjoyed! I haven't updated in FOREVER, I know I'm so sorry. I've spent a lot of time on an update on a group account with Poison_ivy_Quinn and Jadeywolfy called GothamCityWriters so if you guys wanna read some harlivy one shots there, go ahead 😂😁 But I'm starting to doubt my story... my writing isn't very good and it DEFINITELY wasn't during the first few chapters and that's what people judge off. But thanks for the people who do support it. Thanks byeeeeee 💚💚💚
