Issue #5: Planet of the Apes Part 3: Date with Death

Your POV

"I'm not... sure if I'm really... that hot right now..." I said. One of my eyes was slowly closing and I was starting to doze off.

"Oh, trust me, you are." Poison Ivy said. She took off my mask and looked surprised.

"What?" I asked her.

"I guess I was actually right." She said. She looked like she was debating kissing me or not. Don't know if that's an insult because she doesn't want want to kiss me or a compliment because she doesn't want to kiss me because if she does, I'm dead. As she was she saw Duela starting to get up, still coughing blood. Poison Ivy had a vine grab her and wrap around her neck, choking her.

"Hey! That's my friend! Let her go!" I tried to yell.

"Sorry but your little friend here did a lot of damage to my green. And you don't mess with my green." She said. I looked at Duela who was choking and saw a tear fall out of her eye. Probably gonna die for this. I used all of my strength to lift up my arm and shot the vine with a fire bullet. It let go of Duela and shriveled up. I looked back at Poison Ivy.

"Sorry." I said.

"So am I for what I'm about to do." She said grabbing my face. "Kiss me, lover!" She said. She was about to kiss me before I could reject it when somebody whistled at us.

"'Ey, Red! Haven't seen ya in ages! Whatcha got there?" Harley said. She was wearing some sort of war helmet, a belt covered in grenades, and a huge fucking machine gun.

"Harls? What are you doing here?" Ivy asked her.

"Oh y'know, just savin' my teammates."

"Wait, you're one of them?"

"Yup, now I'm askin' you nicely to let the cutie go."

"Sorry, Harls, but this one is mine." She said grabbing me into a hug. "Why don't you run back to your disgusting clown boyfriend?"

"I asked you nicely and you respond by bringing up my past mistakes. Thanks. Great girl to girl talk, Ivy." Harley said sarcastically. "Before you get any ideas..." she said before she took out a pistol and then shoT IT AT ME!? Wait, it wasn't a bullet but whatever it was it did sting. Waitaminute...

"DID YOU JUST TRANQUILIZE ME!?" I asked her with adrenaline pumping before I passed out.

Harley Quinn POV

"What in Mother Nature... why did you do that!?" Red asked me.

"He wasn't supposed to pass out..." I muttered to myself. "But to answer your question: That's the same shot you gave me that made me immune to your powers and poisons. I was just making sure that in the off chance I ever did let you kiss 'im, you wouldn't kill 'im."

"So you're saying if I kiss him, he won't die?"

"I said in the off chance I'd let you." I said aiming a second pistol at her. "Which I'm not." She tossed (Y,N) next to Duela and used a vine to swat the gun out my hand.

"I guess this'll be our last dance, Harley." She said.

"Don't say that! You're Breakin' My Heart, Red..." I told her holding back tears.

"That's not all I'm going to break." Ivy said before kicking me down to the floor.

"Owie!" I said holding my head.

Duela POV

I started to regain consciousness and looked next to me to see (Y,N). Please don't be dead! I turned him over and he was still visibly breathing so that's good. I saw Harley fighting Poison Ivy. I looked back at (Y,N) and took off one of his wrist cannons. He doesn't really need this right now. Now how do I work thi- my train of thought was cut off by me randomly shooting bullets in every direction.

"Hey DD! A little help!?" Harley yelled at me before she got palm striked by Ivy.

"I'm working on it!" I shouted at her as I still tried to figure out how to use (Y,N)'S wrist cannon. Ivy started walking over to me before I accidentally shot a freezing bullet over to her. Her foot got frozen to the floor. I looked over to Harley and noticed- HEY! "HARLEY! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!? USE THE MACHINE GUN!"

"But, Ivy's my friend!" Harley said.

"Wait! Harley don't shoot!" Ivy said. "What if we worked something out? If you let me go: I promise I won't kill either of you or handsome over there. And I'll tell Grodd that I 'lost' you. And if we meet again, I'll continue to 'lose you guys' after we run off."

"I'm not su-"

"Sure thing, Red! I knew you'd come around!" Harley said running to Ivy and giving her a hug.

"Did she not just try to kill you 30 seconds ago!?" I yelled at Harley throwing (Y,N)'S wrist cannon onto the floor.

"Forgive and forget!" Harley said. I sighed with some more blood coming out.

"I got really messed up, didn't I?" I muttered to myself. I looked over to (Y,N). "Not as messed up as you, though." I said with a smile on my face watching him sleep. All of the sudden his eyes opened and he shouted "WHAT DO I LOOK LIKE, A MONKEY!?" with rage in his voice. Harley and Ivy looked over to him. He seemed really energetic for someone who was just knocked out after getting the piss knocked out of him by Reverse Flash.

"Is that a side effect of the shot? Being super hyper after?" Ivy asked.

"I dunno. I made it but I used Ivy's instructions." Harley said.

"I always assumed that Harley was bouncing around when I gave her her shot because she's Harley." Ivy said.

"STOP TALKING ABOUT ME LIKE I'M NOT- Hey wait where's my wrist cannon?" (Y,N) said.

"Oh, I kinda took it off of you while you were knocked out to trap Ivy." I said. (Y,N) looked at me confused.

"No... one's... ever taken my cannon off of me." He said. "Anyway, our we going to have to kill her now? Because I think if we give her a chance to run away she'll-"

"We already worked it out." Harley told (Y,N).

"Oh."

"So could you be a doll and let me out?" Ivy said seductively.

"If I do, are you going to kill me?" (Y,N) asked her.

"I think we established I won't."

"Alright." (Y,N) said before using his other wrist cannon to shoot a bullet at the ice cracking it. (Y,N) walked over to her and kicked the ice, shattering it.

"Thanks, darling." She told (Y,N) before kissing him passionately. I would've Immediately clawed her eyes out but due to the bad shape my body's in I could only watch. I looked over at Harley who was contemplating shooting her best friend with her machine gun.

"I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU WEREN'T GOING TO KILL- wait, why aren't I dying?" (Y,N) asked himself.

"That 'tranquilizer' Harley gave you was the serum I shot into her to make her immune to my and any other poisons." Ivy said ruffling his hair.

"And you knew?" He asked her.

"Yep."

"So that was-"

"Just for pleasure."

"...Neat."

"Okay, nice seeing ya Red, but now it's time for you to scram!" Harley told Ivy taking a grenade out of her belt. Ivy smirked.

"Alright. We should go out again, some time Harls. And we should go out again, some time." Ivy said looking at (Y,N) before walking off.

"So... we should probably get back to the rest of the squad." (Y,N) said picking up his mask from the dirt.

"I actually don't know how well I can walk." I said.

"Ughhhhhhh! God damned bitches! Slowing me down, messing up my day!" (Y,N) said before picking me up in bridal position and started carrying me back.

"Why, aren't you as hurt as I am?" I asked him.

"Cuz I'm awesome." He said.

"Nah, I think Red has some sort of thingy in the serum that makes you regain all your stamina and energy. Like a health pack in a vidya game!" Harley said. "We just never knew because the only other person to take the shot was me and I was totally fine before I took it." We walked in silence with me staring in (Y,N)'s eyes before Harley spoke up. "Hey, (Y,N)?"

"Yeah?"

"Can I ask ya a question?"

"Sure."

"That kiss you had with Ivy... was that your first kiss?"

"Yeah, why?" (Y,N) said. Harley stopped moving and started breathing heavily. "Harley?" (Y,N) said. Harley slowly raised her bat that she took with her instead of her mallet slowly and calmly breathed in before smashing it over the back of (Y,N)'s head. He dropped me and held the back of his head. "OW WHAT THE HELL!?"

"Sorry. I'm not mad at you, I just needed to get that outta my system." Harley said.
