I Hate My Life
As soon as the trunk opened I knew something was wrong. When they left we could hear explosions and yelling once and awhile. But when the trunk opened some sixth sense told me that whoever was opening it was not the bat family. And guess what? Just my luck. I swear the fates hate me. I was right. As soon as the trunk opened a member of the Joker's gang was beaming down at us.
"Well looky here," The man said smuggling. I glared at him and I could feel Brooklyn tense beside me.
"Out. And leave the 'toys" He commanded. I didn't move until I saw a gun in a guy behind his hand. I dropped my 'toys' but, not before I slipped a small knife into my back pocket. When we climbed out I could see more members of the Joker gang. There were at least five of them by us. I grunted as one of them harshly tied my hands behind my back. I heard Brooklyn yelp and assumed they were doing the same to her. I looked around and saw that we were in an alley by tons of old warehouses. Suddenly the Batmobile turned on and sped away. I glared, 'traitor' I thought. The Joker gang now with a lot more energy shoved us into the warehouse on our right. I sucked in my breath as I saw some sleeping hyaenas on our left. The rest of the warehouse had some weird things in it. I saw a tank with piranhas in it, computers that shoved live footage of what was going on in different places, a couch, and chairs, there was a kitchen as well, a weapon gallery, a few paintings (most likely stolen), and a few boxes with some green paper sticking out of them (probably stolen a well), a few huge metal joker faces, a huge hammer, a TV, a rack full of different costumes, and three cells in the corner towards the left which of course were guarded by the Hyaenas. Which were thankfully still asleep.
The man holding me shoved me into the cell and I saw Brooklyn getting shoved into the stall next to me. The lock clicked behind me and I heard them walking away from us. The warehouse door shut and I looked over at Brooklyn.
"Are you okay?" I asked.
"Seriously?! We have just been taken a hostage and nobody knows! How do you think I'm doing?!" She whisper/yelled at me.
"Okay, not what I meant. Do you have any ideas on how we are getting out?" I inquired. I maneuvered my hands to slip the knife out of my pocket. Took off the cover and started to cut my binds. Man, am I glad that they are rope.
"No, I don't. I didn't have time to talk to our captors to let me figure out an escape plan!" She deadpanned. I grinned in satisfaction as my binds came loose. I wiggled my fingers at Brooklyn.
"How you get out of the ropes?!" She exclaimed.
"I used a knife now come closer and turn around so I can cut your binds," I stated. She did and within seconds her binds came loose. Seconds after that I heard Brooklyn squeal and I looked up. Harley Quinn was on the other side of the warehouse walking purposely towards us.
"HARLEY!!" Brooklyn fangirled. I facepalmed and looked sheepishly at Harley.
"And what do you think you're doing kiddies?" She asked.
"I love your costume! Can we hang out?! We won't try to escape. I promise!" Brooklyn squealed. I looked at her incredulously. Was she being honest or lying? If Harley did open the door though I hope the Joker did not come in. After all, he is the only comic book character that knows he's a comic book character. What if he did come? Would he use us for ransom? Hmm, would Batman be mad at us? That shouldn't even be a question the answer is obvious even for a noob. I started to pace with worry. We are kidnapped by notorious villains whose mood changes all the time. Were they going to drive insane to be their 'kids'? I don't want to go insane! Granted I wouldn't have much of a choice.
"Harper stop pacing," Brooklyn said. I looked towards her cell to glare at her, to find that she wasn't even there.
"Over here idiot," she said. I looked towards her voice and saw her standing outside my cell?!
"How did you get out?" I asked her.
"I let her out. Would you like out to kiddo?" asked Harley.
"Um yes...... please?" I said nervously. She unlocked my cell and led us over to the makeshift kitchen.
"Would you like anything? Oh and forgive me what are your names?" Harley asked.
" Do you have any popsicles? And I'm Brooklyn and this Harper" Brooklyn answered. An explosion shook the whole warehouse and someone went through some windows above us and out the other windows across from them.
" Who was that?" Brooklyn asked. Harley shrugged her shoulders; went to the freezer and dug through it.
"Sorry girls we only have purple and green. Their Mistah J favorites." Harley said.
"It's fine we'll still have some," Brooklyn said. Harley grabbed a purple and green then dug through a drawer and found scissors and cut off the tops. She handed them to us. I got the green and Brooklyn eyed it wistfully.
"We can switch if you want," I said. She nodded her head and ripped out of my hand while in the same movement giving me her popsicle.
"HARLEY! We could use your help out here!" A voice yelled.
"Be right out! You girls stay right here, I'll be back" Harley said while grabbing the huge hammer. Once she left I turned to Brooklyn.
"So are we escaping or not?" I asked.
"Are you kidding no way! If you get to hang out with Batman, your favorite character, I have right to hang out with my favorite character!" She exclaimed.
"My favorite character is not Batman, it's Red Hood. Your favorite character is the Joker?!" I asked.
"No idiot. Harley. Why would I like the joker?"
" Because you're crazy but, you didn't need me to tell you that." I answered
"Ouch. I like Harley she so much cooler than the Joker"
"True. What are we going to do then? Batman won't be happy about us running away." I said.
" Technically we didn't run away. We were kidnapped." She deadpanned.
"We wouldn't have been kidnapped if we had stayed at the cave. So are we going to escape or not?" I asked.
" Why should w- "
We screamed as the wall on the far side of the warehouse exploded.
"That's why!" I yelled, pointing.
"I see your point now." She said, we bolted towards the door and threw it open. Outside the door, we could see a fight in progress. It Batman, Robin, Batgirl, Orphan.... pretty much the whole Batfam and Green Arrow, Arsenal, Tigress vs the Joker & Harley and their goons. A barrel was thrown in our direction. We watched in a daze and shook my head.
"Shut the door!" I yelled. Batman turned to us and he stiffened. Joker took the opportunity to punch him in the gut. I slammed the door shut and grabbed Brooklyn and jumped out of the way of the door as it was hit by the barrel. The door fell off its hinges and the barrel rolled around behind us. I gulped as I got to my feet. We are so dead when we get back to Wayne Manor. Brooklyn ran towards the fridge.
"What the heck are you doing?!" I exclaimed.
"When I'm stressed I need to eat! I'm getting a popsicle!" She yelled back. I turned around and messed with my hands. If we got caught in the middle of this battle we could di-
"AHHHHHH!" Brooklyn screamed from behind me. I jumped and ran towards her. She was panting and leaning against the fridge.
"What is it?" I asked.
"Not just popsicles in there" She whispered terrified. I pushed her lightly out of the way and opened up the fridge.
"Gross. Even for the Joker" I murmured.
There was a few frozen human body parts; two hands, a foot, part of what I hoped was an arm, and a leg (did Professor Pyg pay a visit?). Oh, and there was a frozen rat and abnormally large spider. I immediately shut the fridge door. We stood in silence until another wall exploded.
