Linka, Punch, and Judy walked to Lilys' room, well Punch and Judy did, Linka skipped. When they reached the door, Linka knocked and said: "Aunt Lily, it's me, Linka!"

"W-what do you want?" she heard a muffled Lily say

"Uncle J said for me to come to talk to you, I don't know why, but I don't question him," replied Linka "can I come in?"

"Y-yes?" replied Lily as Punch and Judy opened the door, Linka walked in, and they shut the door behind them. Linka looked at Lily, who had been crying the whole time, had puffy red eyes. Linka skipped to her and said, "Why are your eyes puffy?"

"I-I've been c-crying," replied Lily

"Why have you been crying?" asked Linka

"S-something y-you shouldn't worry about, b0but how have you been?" asked Lily as she tried her tears

"Oh not much, I look like Uncle J and I love it! I've been spending time with Auntie Har and Punch and Judy and it's the best!" replied Linka as Lily made a small smile

"I'm glad, but why are you here?" asked Lily as Linka looked down

"You know that stuffed bunny Uncle J gave me?"

"Yeah?"

"M-My brother t-tore it apart and a c-can fell out, it was purple and had a smile on it, I-I sprayed it a-at him and h-he started laughing and had a smile l-like Uncle Js' and h-he fell to the ground," said Linka as she remembered what happened

"Y-you mean it wasn't Joker that kidnapped you?" asked Lily

"N-no, I ran here," replied Linka

'So she wasn't kidnapped, she came here of her own free will,' thought Lily as she had a flashback

Flashback:

Lori and Bobby were frantic as they sat in the hospital. Lily was sitting next to her parents as they did their own thing. Lily looked at Bobby, who was pacing back and forth in front of them while Lori was breathing into a brown paper bag "Oh god, oh god, oh god, how could we lose her again?" she heard Lori mumble

"E-everything is going to be okay, Joker didn't harm her when he first kidnapped her, s-so she'll come back safe and sound this time," she heard Bobby whisper

End Flashback:

Lily was brought out of her thoughts when Linka was waving her hand in front of her face "Aunt Lily, are you there?"

"Y-yeah, sorry," replied Lily

"It's alright, and you can sit on the bed, I helped Auntie Har make it," said Lily as she climbed on it and started jumping "COME ON!"

"A-alright," said Lily as she walked over and climbed on the bed. She stood up as Linka was still jumping on the bed. She then did a little hop and made sure it was safe. She then started to jump until she was reaching the ceiling "HAHAHA, THIS IS FUN!" said Lily

"I know, right? HAHAHAHA!" replied Linka

"Linka, what did I tell you about jumping on the bed?!" shouted Harley as they stopped and saw Harley standing in the doorway with her arms crossed and a raised brow

"Not to," said Linka in a low tone

"That's what I thought, now I want you two to sit down, I have something to tell you," said Harley as Lily instantly did it, because she was captive, and Linka did it because she was her 'guardian'. Lily sat down on the couch as Linka sat next to her. Harley pulled up the chair he held Linka and sat in it. She looked at both of them and said: "Alright, I have something to tell you two,"
