Harley headed to Barbara's club, with her new pet hyena Bud. Harley walked in and saw Barbara sitting at the bar. "Harley, it's great to see- what the hell is that?" Barbara said turning  around and looked at Bud. Harley looked down at Bud and smiled at him. "This is new new pet, slash guard hyena" Harley answered, "But besides that I needed to ask you something" Harley said with a serious face. "What ever it is, it must be serious because I have never seen that look on your face" Barbara said trying to hide her scared tone of voice. "Did you kill a whole group of people in the Dark Zone?" Harley asked, "Yeah, they were trying to kill Jim" Barbara responded. "Of course it was for Jim. Those were my people, you and the GCPD invaded my zone, everyone knows that the Dark Zone, is owned and ran by me" Harley growled, she was very angry about her people dying. "I didn't know that" Barbara said in fear as Harley and Bud walked closer to her. "Well you still have to suffer the consequences" Harley said looking at her. "I don't think so" Barbara said and the females from the League of Shadows surrounded Harley, Bud started to growl. "I'm one step ahead of you Harley" Barbara said smirking, Harley smirked back "I don't think so" she said mimicking Barbara, Harley whistled loudly and the men and woman from all of the zones surrounded Barbara and her woman. Scarecrow came up behind and then next to Harley. "I think you forget Barbara, I am in control. I am always 10 steps ahead of everyone. I have everyone as my allies, you have no one. My people that you killed, this is for them" Harley said smiling, Scarecrow came up to Barbara and sprayed her with his fear gas and the other started to beat up the League of Shadows women, Barbara screamed while Harley laughed.

Harley came back to the church for the initiation. She was dressed in a black, red, and white striped robe, she also had a black and red jester hat on, and her face was covered with a white mask with black paint around the eyes and mouth. Harley waited patiently for all the recruits to show up and sit down, once they did Harley begun. "Welcome, pilgrims, to The Church of Jeremiah Valeska. The only place where you faithful pilgrims can become your very best selves" Harley said with her accent, while she extended her arms. Everyone knew who Harley was and that she was Jeremiah's lady/ partner in crime. Bruce and Selina looked at her masked face, "Who the hell is that?" Bruce asked Selina. Harley was examining the recruits by checking their eye sight. "I don't know. I bet she knows where Jeremiah is, though. Stay here. I'm gonna get a closer look" Selina said almost walking off but Bruce grabbed her hand. "No. We do this together, Selina. That was the deal" Bruce said looking down at Selina. "Funny, I don't remember saying that" Selina whispered. "Now, I know you've come from far and wide to meet the man himself. But first, he requires a show of faith. Don't be shy. Jeremiah awaits. Who is ready?" Harley said walking very slowly down the aisle. Then some of the recruits stood up and Harley gasped. "Lovely. Jeremiah will be so happy" Harley said stroking the cheek of one of the recruits. "But remember: he wants only the most faithful followers. And you all have a chance to prove yourself, right up those stairs" Harley said waving her hand over to the stairs. "And the rest of you, get out!" Harley yelled to all the other people and then started to walk out as the other recruits walked up the stairs. "Wait. I want to meet Jeremiah" Selina said, causing Harley to turn her head. Harley knew Selina would come eventually. "Funny, you don't look like one of Jeremiah's worshipers" Harley said looking Selina up and down. Ivy's oak seed really fixed her up didn't it, Harley thought. "I have witnessed his work firsthand. I will never forget it" Selina said, but it's so funny that she didn't know she was talking to Harley, neither did Bruce. "Then right this way" Harley said waving her to the stairs, and Selina walked. Harley turned around, and walked over to the man who was standing by the stairs. "Selina Kyle and Bruce Wayne are here, be prepared" Harley whispered in his ear, and he walked away. Harley watched as Selina walked up the stairs and she took her mask off and smiled an ear to ear grin.

Harley followed the recruits to the pool, where she killed Ecco. "I'll have to have a word with the cleaning lady. Mind your step, pilgrims. But first, the main attraction" Harley said still in her costume. She walked up to the table in the middle of the room. And pulled off the cloth to reveal eight guns. "Six-shooters. Bang, bang. Each of you get one gun. And one bullet" Harley explained as the recruits grabbed the guns and their single bullet. "What is this?" Selina asked. "Like I said, a show of faith. But if you're ch-ch-ch-chicken..." Harley taunted Selina. "Try me" Selina said walking up to the table and grabbing the gun and loading it. Harley smiled and grabbed the table and put it to the side and walked up the stairs and looked at the recruits. They lined up and put the guns to each other's head. "Oh, my little pilgrims. This will make Jeremiah so happy. Now, on the count of three. One... Two... Chicken poo" Harley said giggling. "Just seeing if y'all were listening. Three!" Harley yelled. Then the shots rang. Three people dead, Selina grabbed the gun and stopped it from firing. Harley walked down the stairs. "Well, well, well. You disappoint me, curls. I had such high hopes for you. What, with that cocky little swagger and all" Harley teased her again. Harley put out her hand. "I'm just not a mindless idiot who's willing to get shot in the head for nothing" Selina said putting the gun in Harley's hand. Harley took off her robe, but not her mask and jester hat. "Hear that? Curls is here to judge all of us, to judge Jeremiah and his methods. What a fitting reminder. To outsiders, Jeremiah's methods may look like madness, but we believers know: his methods will be our salvation. Now, I need to have a word with our friend. The rest of you get straight A's" Harley explained as she pointed to the door, "Please proceed and be reborn" she continued looking at the recruits. All the people left except for her and Selina. "What's the matter? Don't you want to meet Jeremiah?" Harley asked in a fake sad voice. "I do. I'm just not willing to play your little psychotic game" Selina said. Harley crackled her insane and girlishly laugh. "But, baby, it's so fun" Harley said. "If it's so fun, why don't you play?" Selina mocked Harley as she pointed at her. "Don't you get it? I have. But I played with Ecco but she was the one that got shot, she bled out and died. But I'll playing it again if you want me to" Harley explained while gigging. Harley put the gun up to her head, Click. Harley smiled. Click. Harley laughed. Click. Then Harley took the gun away from her head. "You're insane" Selina said, she was genuinely scared. "No. I was willing to look death in the face, for my boyfriend" Harley said dragging he finger across her cleavage and then down her black and red leather vest, then to her black and red diamond leather pants. "But Mistah J, made me into who you're starring at right now. Fearless and crazier then him" Harley said as she went cross eyed then back to normal. "It's the gift Jeremiah gave me. And the gift he wants for all his followers. Don't you want to experience this gift for yourself? I know I want you to. Selina" Harley said smiling as she pointed the gun at Selina. "You know me" Selina said with her voice quivering. Harley smiled and took off jester hat, revealing her platinum blonde with blue and pink highlighted pig tails, that Jeremiah loved to twirling when they cuddle. The Harley took off her mask revealing her pale, blue eyed, red lip, makeup smeared face, that Jeremiah loved so much. "And you know me" Harley said looking at Selina with a smile. Selina's eyes widened she had never seen Brooklyn like this before, she only knew the description Bruce gave her, boy was she finally wishing Brooklyn was here instead of Harley, now.
