***************

Ripped from the arms of a dangerous lover

Shoved into arms of a "noble"

Why can't light love the dark?

Why can't the dark be trusted?

It's been 4 weeks. 4 weeks since she's seen her lover. 4 weeks since The Bat took her away from what she loves. She hates him. She's denied any food offered and just stayed put, staring at a wall. It's disheartening. But it only gets worse.

The police. They take her in for questioning.

She's under bright lights and hardened stares that must've taken ages to perfect. "Did he hurt you in any way"? "No". "Did you ever see him hurt anyone"? "No". "Any drug use"? Billie looks up with a smirk. "Cocaine mends the soul, Detective Douche". The man sighs and shakes his head. That's a new one. "Billie. If you can't answer us correctly and truthfully, we might have to take you away". "Oh will you? How many damn times do I have to be taken away"? "What"? "I was happy and then he took me. I was in love and that bastard took me away. Now, you want to take me too? Really"? "Billie. You've got to answer. We don't want to take you away, but you aren't talking. We just need you to cooperate". "Stop talking to me like I'm a fucking child".

The man nods and crosses his arm. "Okay I'm sorry. I just need you to talk. Okay"? "Of course Detective Douche". 'Detective Douche' shakes his head and presses a button beside the desk. "Billie, I just need you to answer this question. Do you know where he's staying at the moment"? She looks at him with teary eyes and a sad chuckle. "He's staying in a hell you've created".

The door is thrown open and two guards drag Billie away.

Of course. She's taken away again. But to where?

"I think that her staying with him has really played with her mind. I think maybe a few months in here could really help her". "Where at"? "Arkham Asylum". "If it's for the best". "Of course it is".

They can hear Billie's screams, but they're only ignored.

This is it. She's being taken away and there's nothing she can do. She can't fight. Not even as she's shoved into a straight jacket. Not when they throw her into the back of a cold metal van. The hate only spreads. For The Bat. For Detective Douche. And now, her parents.

How could they just watch her get taken away? How could they watch their only daughter get taken over and over and over again? They never once helped. Just cowered. And then, she was happy. Joker took care of her. He loved her. No. He loves her. And they took her away from that. And now, they're taking her away from Sebastian. This isn't okay. They're gonna pay. One way or another...

"Where the fuck did he take her"? "She was with her parents, but we don't know now. They took her in for questioning and as of now, she's missing". "Missing"? "Missing. They took her from the station and we aren't sure where she is now". Joker shakes his head and begins pacing. This is bull shit. They can't just take her away from him. It isn't fair. "I need her back. She needs me, Lucas. She really needs me. I have to take care of her. I have to love her". "I know J. I know. We'll find a way". "I could just blow up the place and torture them until I get answers". "You can't". "Why the fuck not"? "That's what they'll expect from you. You can't prove them right". "I need my girl back, Lucas. She needs me. Do you get that"? "Yes J. But what happens when you get shot by the guards or taken down by The Bat"? Joker shakes his head and punches a hole through the wall making Lucas jump.
