PROLOUGUE
Probably it was sense of survival right?
It wasnt serious, in fact it was just in a span of time before it gets wrong...
What is it?
Don't ask Just come....
"Damn it" her teeth clenched for a minute while she try not to scream in pain as she roll her foot to align properly...
This is a curse....
She's almost there, her ballet audition that she had waited for a long time but how come something like this just had to happen?
Her name was announced several times for her turn and now it was the last call...
Now she totally scream when she force her foot....
Her scream filled the small dark locker room...
She stop.....as the voice of announcement for her name had stop.....
Her eyes closed while she let go of her foot and slam herself on the locker...
Its over.....
' Hi, Im Lucy Quinzel...my name rings a ding right? Well if youre thinking if im related to The psychiatrist turned gotham's most wanted criminal Harleen quinzel well youre not wrong why? Im her niece and because of that i grew up being stared as if i did something wrong....it doesnt really affect me Because i got use to it but sometimes i wonder what does it feel doing one?'
"Better luck next time Sporty" that bitch....
A normie blondie just wave out her card showing it to everyone who didnt pass....
It was the waiting room and she's just mooching in......
Lucy knew that this self centered bitch had push her down thats why she sprained her foot in result that she didnt get to audition...
Well she's not satisfied in springing it on their faces she even stood in front of Lucy....
"Im so sorry for youre sprain freckled dip" she whispered and laugh after..
Lucy had refrain herself from making it a fuss for it doesnt really have to be..
Its just that she's frustrated that she didnt get to try...it was somewhat a chance.
All she can do is Sigh...
She ended up going home alone without carrying some pass that she promise her mom...
She receive a tap and a hug even when she show nothing...she was only told of
"There will be next time sweetheart" yeah, if ever her foot will heal perfectly maybe there is...
She just went up to her room she didnt even bother to turn on the lights...
The curtain calmly drifting while she watch the night sky on her window...
Flipping open her lighter, technically her Aunt's lighter....
She's sitting on her bed trying to rest..
Just sitting on her desk is a small potted plant that she's with ever since she can remember..
Her mom said that the potted plant was given by her Aunt's friend.....
Its been a long time since she last saw her aunt....
Sometimes she wonder where her Aunt is...
She shifted her eyes on the potted plant....she tend to tell things on it like its a friend...
"Im frustrated rose im almost there yet...." she pause and just cover her face with her hands.....
She named the potted plant Rose...
It sway as the wind had dance on it....the plant just listen as Lucy let go of her pain.......
' Rose '
A loud sound erupts from the club...
It makes her feel dizzy after taking several shots of vodka...
She's so happy right?
After all she got a pass from the auditions.....
She's so glad that she got rid of Lucy for Lucy is naturally good in ballet...she's the biggest competition..
She just planned to sprain her a little and didnt expect that Lucy's Foot will twist she felt a little guilty but its over now....
swaying and almost out of herself for drinking so much......she left her friends inside..maybe having a little air and to smoke will lessen her drunkenness...
puffing out some smoke while dusting her skirt...she had decided never to guilt herself on Lucy Quinzel in reality Lucy didnt care anymore but theres someone who doesn't like what happen on the auditions...
beyond the shadows of the loud music of the club and inside the empty car park she appeared, at first she wasnt recognizable but after a few steps her expected person had look at her...
she wasnt minded perhaps that woman thought that she was just passing by but she stop just few steps away from her...
Pathetic!
"So loud right?"
"Totally" the woman replied while holding her head...
Her deceiving motives hides beneath her Sweet smile....
The woman had look at her for a second and thought is she just drunk or the woman before her is too pink..
The strange pink woman had swirl herself on the back of the car where the other woman is...
"Celebrating?"
The woman had smirk and took a stand laughing....
"Im too drunk for conversations" she said...
The pink woman had shrugged her shoulders and raise her hands..
"Well i dont want it too Because i dont really like meddling with people"
That makes the woman frowned...
"I just want to make some reminder that you dont get to hurt-"
Her next words were unheard when the woman felt a vine roping her whole body....
Her attempt to scream was block by a vine......
She saw the ground below while she was lifted.....
Struggling to let go but it was too tight..
Seeing the pink woman standing motionless and just looking at her with so much disgust....
Her whole body crumpled and her cry wasnt heard as vines grip her body tight...
Her feet starting to twist while a wicked laugh started to run on the pink woman...
Meanwhile a pink petal had drop on Lucy's hand while she's sleeping on her bed....
*-*-*-*
Next Day...
Lucy open her locker only to hear two girls whispering...
"Jessica was found on the club last night wounded"
Lucy shift her books not minding the gossip happening beside her...
"They said her feet was twisted"
Lucy's hand had stop from getting a book....
"She kept saying that it was a pink monstrous woman"
Lucy shook her head and thought this gossip sure is detailed....
Her attempt to close her locker had stop when the two woman beside her had started getting giddy and murmur a name....
"Hey"
That voice.....
She puffed out and scratch her head...
A spiky hair and a simple cut men appear before her...
"How's youre foot?" it was the spiky guy...
"Im fine Wayne" she close down her locker and grip her books..
"Heard about that jessica?" it was the simple cut guy with an S printed black shirt....
"What about her?" lucy drag her left foot as she walk.....
The two men follow through...
"You dont seem interested but uhmm"
Lucy look at the S guy...
"Cut out the chase and just say it Jon"
The spiky guy smirk...
"Alright okay"
They were walking, Jon and the spiky guy on each side of Lucy while Lucy stay on the middle...
"She's Screaming that it was poison ivy that did that to her"
Now that stop Lucy...
Jon look at the spiky guy for him to continue..
"The thing is poison ivy has been gone for a long time together with youre aunt" The spiky guy had continue...
Lucy knew that this two is trying to make her spill something...
"What are you trying to say?"
Jon look at the Spiky guy...
"You should be careful" damian Wayne had finished the conversation with that...
Lucy knew that theres something about it...this isnt what its supposed to be right?
She grip the book on her hands while she look at the two guys walking away...
She knew who they were...
Jon Samuel Kent, Son of Superman then Damian Wayne Son of Batman.
Both men are her friends but the thing is they dont have a normal life like she has.....if ever she doesnt want to associate herself with any of it...
But.........will it ever be normal?
She went to class......
30 Minutes just pass when she went out of the room and has been sent for detention...
She's tired....she didnt even do anything yet she was accused of doing something....
Such assholes she look at the closed window of the detention room..
"Drop that out Quinzel"
The lady in charge had instructed her..
She flip off the lid of the lighter and hid it on her pocket...
There was only two of them inside the room...
Well its too early for detention afterall..
Its too quiet and it makes her feel sleepy.....
"Wanna know something funny?"
She's already giggling while being swayed from the arms of her aunt..
Leaning on each others forehead just feeling warm and calm....
Then in the midst of chances that can be hers harleen let her guard down and...
"I love You Lou"
Was it just her imagination or did she saw tears on Harleen Quinzel...
Her eyes Wide up only to feel her hands on tight grip and her mouth covered...
What the fuck!?!?
She move but it was tight....
Her eyes moved everywhere only to realize she's in a dark warehouse....
"eeeuuhmm!"
Footsteps approach making her more pressured to be free...
"Hello sweetie"
That voice was chirping and its whistling....
It stop just enough for the shadows to cover its face....
her eyes were trying to figure out what it was or whoever it was but base on its voice, it's a woman....
the shadow move through revealing a woman....
Lucy stop struggling and she had more concern on the woman's costume than her own safety...
even when her mouth were covered the woman can hear her laughing...
her laugh was annoying...
the woman's eyes scowled....is she laughing at me? she thought....
obviously Lucy just laugh but its not youre typical laugh but....
"Shut It!!!'
her eyes were almost out of its socket while her hands move drastically trying to go to her mouth but it cant coz its tied.....it got use to it her hand covering her mouth when her maniac laugh starts to go crazy....
the woman remove the tape on her mouth that her laugh burst on every corner of the warehouse....
Lucy felt the woman's hand as she gave her a big slap...
her laugh still wont stop that her laugh went on and more louder...
"im sorry" she pleads still laughing...
the woman had slap her again....
"How about that lunatic?"
a blood drip from her lips.....
"Thanks" she smile and look at the woman after her laugh faded...
Lucy lick the blood on her lips and look at the woman....
"What do you want?"
What the fuck is this? the last time she remember she's on detention and youre telling her that she's on a warehouse being kidnapped?
why is it even called kidnap when she's not even a kid?
oh right! she will consider this as an adultnap?
"this is adultnap!"
the woman had her eyes in motion like did she heard that right?
it made her laugh.....
"What's funny?" Lucy look around trying to see if she had any accomplice with her...
"Im alone quinzel" she said after laughing...
"you know who i am?"
she smirk and step closer...
"of course i do" she responded.....
"What are you planning to do to me?" Lucy move like she's going to scream...
"Youre too loud Quinzel and im not even on my mood"
"Let me go i dont even have shit to give to you!"
"Are you sure?"
Now she's lose...what the fuck is she saying now?
Is she playing dumb guessing games with her?
"Then what do you want?!" she hissed..
The woman had felt a strong wind together with that pink petal that flew away from Lucy...
Lucy had her eyes focus on the woman that she didnt notice the pink petal...
"What now?" Lucy is confused as fuck.....
She's just smiling on her own...
"She's here"
Lucy had look around...
"who? I thought youre alone?"
She was dumbfound on what's happening....
"Im alone the whole time it was you who had someone"
Now Lucy literally had question mark all over her face...
"Lucy" she simply called.......
Lucy felt her hand finally cut the rope with the lighter....
Now she's just waiting for the right chance to run....
Looking at every space of opening where she can get out...
"Do you know Joker?"
Her eyes blink....Joker?
Yeah, the joker?
Lucy shook her head...suddenly she felt lose by the mere mention of Joker..
"Did you know that Joker loves to laugh like how you laugh"
Now what the fuck is she trying to say..?
Her face inches closer....
"Am i in the right place to tell you?"
Lucy gritted her teeth and about to move when the woman held her hands...
"sneaky..i like that" she had that enchanting kind of voice....
""What is it goddamnit?!"
"woah! Too tense" she pull Lucy's hands and grip it that Lucy started screaming...
"finally" she whispered when she jump out as a vine move and almost hit her....
Lucy felt the vine growing just all over her...
She thought where did all of those vines came from...
"Do i have to really hurt her just for you to come out?"
Now who she is talking to?
Lucy is losing her senses...
She cant even process every scenario of these...
Now pink petals are starting to flow everywhere starting from the vines that surrounds her...
It was like some sort of magic when someone came out of those vines that splunge open...
The kidnapper had swallowed down every air that she had as her eyes stay still on the woman in vines
It look so......
"Rose"
The kidnapper finally smile so wide after seeing the woman who came out from her vines....
She had that long golden straight hair, pinkish skin then green eyes that hypnotize you if youre not careful...
She's Rose Isley and do we have to explain how she had those vines?
"Let her go" her voice felt cold and deep...
Rose glance at Lucy's direction then went back to the other woman....
"If i did? Will you go with me?"
rose simply shook her head that the woman grumbled in frustration...
"How long are you going to look out for her?" it sounds frustrating...
The vine move behind Lucy and pick her lighter on the ground...
She felt the lighter being place on her lap by those vines....
"what is happening?"
Rose and the other woman look at her.....
She slap away the vine that starts to wipe around her...
She stood up from the chair where she's tied earlier...
"who the fuck are you all weirdos!" her senses are starting to panic...
Her hands are trembling while her eyes aint blinking...
Rose step to go to her side but lucy raise her hand...
"Dont!?-"
Hahahahahaha...
Her trembling hand had cover her mouth...
Her body is shaking from her uncontrollable laughter...
Her knees had knelt down while her nails dug down the skin of her mouth just by trying to stop her laugh..
Rose move by herself while the woman shook her head like she's already use to it and just let rose run to Lucy's side....
' who are you supposed to be? '
' Me? '
Her warm hand had touch Lucy's trembling hand....
' Is that even important? '
' Yeah it does '
Rose place Lucy's mouth on her shoulder...
"Bite it" she commanded
Lucy didnt hesitate and really bite it..
The woman on watch just close her eyes for she knew that Rose will always put Lucy first....
Rose bit her lip just to stop the pain...
' All you need to know is that ill always take youre side '
' Why is that? '
The toxins on her body had seam in on Lucy which made her lose Conciousness...
Rose didnt mind the sting of the bite and just let Lucy Lean on her shoulder....
The woman moves toward their direction but stop when vines with pink roses just block her which made her sneered...
"Helena"
She heard Rose called her...
"Dont ever lay a hand on her again"
Helena sneered on how overprotective Rose is on Lucy...
"She's a natural idiot yet here you are being with her....."
The vines move away and let Helena move to their side and rub Lucy's head while she's asleep...
"Ill bring her back then...."
Rose nod her head as a respond to helena while she place her cheek on Lucy's head...
' Because........'
"Quinzel!"
She move up and got startled and fell down butt first....
The lighter flop down on the floor...
She immediately pick it up only to stop...
It's the detention room...
She move harshly on every side....
What?!?!?
Is that warehouse thing a dream!?!?!?!
"Are you sleep walking Quinzel?"
She look in front of her and saw Ms.Gobble the in charge of detention..
She slowly shook her head and sat back...
"Crazy kids" Ms.Gobble murmurred
Lucy tried to breath in a calm manner..
She put her lighter down and shake her head several times...
"Pink"
Her head stop shaking when she heard Ms.Gobble..
She turn her head on the window where ms. Gobble is looking...
There were pink petals slowly drifting outside....
What was that feeling?
Lucy felt something warm on her chest.....
' Aunt harleen? '
' What is it Lou? '
why does that dream felt real?
' Was It real? '
' Of course its real '
She place her eyes back on her table only for her eyes to wide up as she saw a pink petal on top of her lighter..
Ms.Gobble sighed and had enough when Lucy started laughing uncontrollably....
Lucy was holding the lighter tight on her right hand while her left hand cover her mouth...
' Since its real...im fated to be like you right? '
Her laugh filled the whole detention room.....
