Jason stood impatiently on the roof of the building he lived in. He doesn't know why Bruce has asked to meet, but hopes it's in regards to Harley. Close by Ace stands, keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings.

Jason sighs and looks down at the gold watch on his wrist. Bruce still had three minutes to show up. Jason searches the night sky. There was no bat signal shining tonight. Therefore, nothing should have been detaining Bruce.
Moments later Jason could hear the this of Bruce's weight on the roof. Jason sighs and turns to face the caped vigilante. A sinister grin spreads across Jason's Ruby lips, "Well well Bruce, you're just in time. It would have been a shame to have to blow up a building or something because you weren't on time," he theatrically animates his words with the gestures that J would have used. Jason usually tends to overkill the Joker nuances in Bruce's presence. For Bruce had known, not only the Joker, but Jason Todd as well. "Since you're here now, perhaps you would be kind enough to tell me why I'm here?"
"It's about Harley," Bruce rasps. He looks Jason over.
The smug smile immediately melted from Jason's fake Joker face. His lips part, "H-harley?" He barely squeeks her name. He immediately clears his throat and tries to regain a small amount of his composure. "You found her? Where is she?"
Bruce looks down and shakes his head. "I was given an anomous tip that Harley was held up in a secret labratory of Mr. Freeze's." He looks Jason over. His clothes were sloppy and wrinkled. His hair was oily and unkempt. His eyes were mostly black with the blue being almost non-existent. He didn't look good.
"Why was she at some secret lab with Freeze?" Jason asks wanting to know every detail.
Bruce shrugs, "I have no idea why."
"How did you manage to track her down," Jason studies Bruce's eyes, just to keep him honest.
"All I had to go on was that it was hidden within a mountain. Through X-ray goggles I managed to track down the comlex," Bruce tells him. "I made my way into the lab by blasting a hole to gain access. Along the way I detained several of Freeze's men."
"So where is she Bruce?" Jason's impatience was starting to rear it's ugly head.
Bruce "When I found her she engaged me in combat. I had no choice but to use force to subdue her. But..."
"But what?" Jason's fists ball at his sides. Adrenaline rushes through him. The Batman cowl shielded Bruce's emotions, but Jason picked up on the hesitation in his voice. Jason knows that this isn't at all going to be good news. Bruce didn't have Harley with him. Something had happened to her. Jason's pitch rises, "Where is Harley?"
"There was a problem," Bruce says.
"A problem?! What do you mean there was a fucking problem?! Where the fuck is my wife?!" Jason shouts, his patience depleted.
