Gotham's Guardian's

Trap

Before the conference. 

"Anything else I should know about?" Harvey says with his hands on his hips glaring. Exhaling, "... it's complex..." 

 " complex?" 

Harvey couldn't help but sigh, " who are you really? A least tell me that." 

" Bruce...he's my biological father and Rachel Dawes is my biological mother. "  

Suddenly pulls her into his arms resting his chin on her head. " Yara, you can't give in. Gotham needs Batgirl and Batman. " She sighs against his chest breathing in his scent, " this is what the Joker wants, don't do it." 

Both of them held each other in their arms kissing the top of her head. 

During the middle of the conference, Bruce made eye with Yara who's standing next to Harvey. 

" You'd rather protect outlaws than the lives of citizens?" woman one asks. 

" No more dead cops!" 

Harvey nods, " so be it. Take in the Batman." 

Everyone gasps, whispering to each other, cops came up to Harvey cuffing him " take the Batgirl into custody..." Harvey snaps his attention to Yara who promised not to give in, Bruce's heart drops to the floor. The cops grabbed Yara putting handcuffs on her also. They escorted the two into the back of the garage " you promised" he hissed walking towards a SWAT van. 

The cops in the room cheered for the two, The cops took off their handcuffs. " Harvey!" yells a soft voice rushing over to the two, suddenly stops in her track looking at Yara, broken. " I'm sorry, we didn't get to talk to you about this," he says to Rachel, " this is what the Joker wants from you guys!" she says following. 

She continues to ramble to Harvey about him and Yara doing the stunt until  suddenly caught off by a kiss. 

Slowly pulling away from her " We're going to be ok," he whispers. Rachel sighs looking into his eyes " be careful you two..." Yara nods her head climbing into the van " I love you guys..." watching Harvey climb in tossing his lucky coin to Rachel. " We love you too," Harvey said, the doors slam shut. 

The SWAT team drives out of the building down the road, two guards sat in the back with Yara and Havery. Everyone kept to themselves, clearly scared. Yara, this didn't affect her at all. She was raised to face these trained for this stuff all her life. 

Gaurd one nods could easily tell holding his rifle up against his chest. 

Everyone looked at each other scared, Yara always remained clam. " Those things are built for that right?" Harvey asks the guard nods. " Their gonna need something a lot bigger than that." 

The SWAT  Van skirts around the place, everyone in the van slid around, explosives are in the distance. Clattering echoed through the tunnel. One of the guard grunts crushing Yara into the wall who hissed shoving him off, they continued to get swayed back and forthcoming into a forced stopped. 

Someone opens the door they all jumped only to see Jim Gordon. Relieved. 

" Gordon?" Harvey asks, in shock.

" You like to take things personally to the chest." 

" We got him, Harvey, and for you Miss Wayne, you like to surprise people don't you?" Gordon says. " sure..." she grumbles climbing out of the van jumping down. The Joker gets pulled up " consider us even," she says, he snickers. " We aren't done playing toots." Being shoved into the car, walking over to the van seeing Batman slowly standing up. 

" They don't know it's really me, it's a plane that Harvey and I came up with," she says helping him stand. " Are you alright?" he asks checking for any bruising, marks. Etc. Hugging him, " I love you" she whispers, Batman cups her neck kissing her head. " I love you too." 

Interrogation. 

"  Harvey Dent didn't arrive home last night, where is he?" 

Joker grins " for their dents departments, he could be in one place or several places." 

" Where is he?"

"What's the time?" 

" What difference does it make?"

Joker grins " for  dents departments, he could be in one place or several places." 

" If we're going to play games, I'm going to need a cup of coffee," Jim says unlocking Jokers cuff taking them off-putting them into his pockets. " Good cop bad cop routine?" Joker asks watching Jim walk over to the door buzzing, " not exactly," opening the door walking out closing it.

The lights turn on and suddenly Jokers head is slammed into the table, grunting. " Never start with the head! The victim gets so fuzzy!" Batman slams his elbow Joker groans, " see?" Gesturing to the pain. 

" You wanted me, here I am." 

" I wanted to see what you would do. You didn't disappoint me at all. You left 5 people to get killed. Then you let Dent take your place and your girlfriend take Batgirls place. Even though a guy like me, that's cold. "

"Where's Dent?"

Joker giggles, licking his mouth. " Mhmm..." 

" Those mob fools want you guys gone, so they can get back where they were. But I know the truth. There's no going back, you changed things. Forever." 

" Then why do you want to kill me?"

Joker burst out giggling clapping his hands " I- - I don't want to kill you! What would I do without you? Go back to ripping off mob dealers? No, no. No, no, you complete me." 

"Your garbage who kills for money. " 

" Don't talk like them because of your not. Even if you'd like to be, to them, your like a freak, like me. They need you right now but when they don't, they'll cast out like a leper. You see their morals, their code. It's a bad joke. Dropped at their first sign of trouble. They're only as good as the world allows them. I'll show you. When the chips are down, these so-called uh..."

Batman grabs Joker pinning him up against the wall, he laughs. " Ya know, Lil Wayne is a good kisser." 

Batman slams Joker's body onto the table,  grabbing the chair walking over to the door blocking from everyone coming in. Turning his attention back to Joker. " Look at you go! What'd happen if Wayne and I did more then that?" he says standing up cracking his back. Batman grew more furious " WHERE ARE THEY!?!?" he roared throwing him across the ground, " You have NOTHING TO USE AGAINST ME!" Joker snickers. 

" Your going have to make a choice, between Rachel, and Dent." 

" WHERE ARE THEY!!?!?" Batman roared punching Jokers face. 

Ramarzie looks over to Batgirl, scowling. Once Joker revealed the location of Dent and Dawes Batgirl's the first one to rush out " which one are you going for?!" Gordon asks her, not really expecting an answer  " Dent!" jumping onto her own Batpod, catching Gordon off- guard. Gordon told his unit to follow both fo the bats, Batgirl pod zooms into the streets followed by a whirring sound. As Batman flew past by, she couldn't bear to lose any more people she loved. Praying to God that they get to them in time. 

Making it before the cops Batgirl Pod skirts into a full 368 circle, shortly after the cops pulls behind her, parking. Sprinting on the gravel ground approaching the building being flown back by the pressure of the explosion rolling back, in a hurry, Gordon rushes over to Batgirl who runs over the burning build " No! No! No!" he yells grabbing her cape pulling her back roughly elbowing his chest wrapping his arms around her chest pulling her away. 

In despair, Batgirl fell to her knees. Tears stream down her cowl, she never wanted this to happen... She was meant to inspire good...But now, Joker took that away from her... The police department never saw this side of Batgirl, Gordon's speechless that Batgirl tightly pulled him into a hug who sobs into the jacket.
