One of the hired hands ran towards Ivy with a bucket and yelled "time to die planty!"
Harley dropped her bat and quickly drew her revolver and fired as she said "not today."
The man with the bucket immediately fell and dropped the bucket.
"Nice shot" Ivy said.
"Thanks" Harley said as she put the revolver back in the holster and picked up the bat.
Everyone in the room was staring at Harley.
"Ya gonna stare at us all day or are we gonna do this?" Harley asked.
"GET THEM!" Mister Jones yelled.
"That's the spirit" Harley said as she readied the bat "we didn't get all dressed up for ya to just stare at us."
"Take it easy boys. I got this boss, and I got you little miss pigtails" one of them said as he stepped forward holding a baseball bat "see this bat? I've killed sixteen people with this bat" he began to spin the bat while walking towards her "about to be seventeen."
"Cute" Harley said "seventeen only puts yours about forty kills behind mine."
She stepped forward and his him in the head with the bat. There was a sickening crack as he fell.
"Forty-one" Harley said.
Several of the henchmen began rushing them. The roots around Ivy shot forward and began cocooning and strangling them.
"Get the plant!" Mister Jones yelled "she's the biggest threat!"
The remaining henchmen began rushing Ivy. Harley and Selina both moved in front of her.
"Keep doin' whatcha doin'" Harley said as she hit a henchmen with her bat.
"We've got your back" Selina said as she slashed one of them with her claws "you can do the most damage the fastest."
The last few henchmen ran out of the building.
"GET BACK HERE!" Mister Jones yelled "GET BACK HERE AND PROTECT ME!"
He slowly backed into a corner as Harley, Ivy and Selina approached him.
"Where is the girl?" Ivy asked.
Jones just looked back and forth between them.
Harley grabbed him by the collar, pulled him close so their faces were almost touching and said "she asked ya a question. Answer it while ya still have breath in your lungs."
"She's in my office" Mister Jones said "but you will never get her, my two most trusted men are watching her."
"The ones ya sent to our house?" Harley asked.
"Yes" Mister Jones said.
"Good" Ivy said.
"You two go get the girl" Selina said "I'll watch this one."
Harley nodded and she and Ivy walked over to the office door. Harley kicked it open and stepped inside. Ivy stepped in and blocked the door with roots. Harley saw Jenny cowering in the corner and saw her black eye and bloody nose. Harley began breathing heavily as her hands closed into tight fists.
"Take him" Ivy said pointing to Bill "the other is mine."
Harley began walking towards Bill.
He took out a switchblade and said "don't come any closer."
Harley swung the bat, hitting him in the ribs, there was a crack and he groaned in pain. He stabbed her in the shoulder. Harley either didn't notice or didn't care about the knife. She grabbed him by the throat and picked him up. He grabbed at her hand and struggled to get away. Harley carried him over to the wall and slammed him into it. She head-butted him in the forehead, then dropped him. She raised the bat above her head and brought it down on his head. He laid completely still. Harley spit on him and looked at the knife in her shoulder. Dave rushed Ivy with a nightstick. A root came through the ground and wrapped around his neck and yanked him backwards, causing him to fall flat on his back. More roots came out of the ground, wrapping around Dave's arms and legs.
He struggled against the vines, Ivy walked over and put her heel on his throat and said "every time you move those vines will tighten, especially the one around your neck."
She walked over to Harley and said "hold still Sweet Pea."
She grabbed the knife and said "one, two, three!"
She yanked the knife out as Harley gritted her teeth. Ivy took a small plastic case out of her pocket and took out a small container containing a green cream. Ivy dipped her finger in it and rubbed it on the wound. The bleeding immediately stopped. Ivy put the container back in the case and took out a small pill. Harley put the pill in her mouth and forced herself to swallow it.
Jenny walked over and said "Harley?"
"Yeah?" Harley replied.
"Are you ok?" Jenny asked.
"I'm fine Kiddo" Harley said "Red has some special medicines she made that'll fix me up."
Jenny ran to Harley and hugged her thighs. Harley leaned down and returned the hug.
"Let's go home" Ivy said.
The roots blocking the door disappeared and they walked out of the office. Selina had tied Mister Jones' hands behind him with a bola.
Harley took her revolver out of the holster, put it in Jones' back and said "walk."
"Where are we going?" Jones asked.
"Well" Ivy said "we are going home, you are going to jail."
Harley pushed the barrel of the revolver into his back and said "move!"
He started walking slowly.
Harley pulled the hammer back and yelled "I said MOVE!"
He started walking faster.
"Good luck finding someone who will testify against me."
"I…I will" Jenny said.
"So will I" Ivy said "I believe you tried to have me killed."
"Me too" Harley said.
They led him the car. Selina opened the back door and Harley shoved him inside. He straightened himself up in the middle seat. Harley got in and put her revolver against his side. Selina sat on the other side of him and called Batman. Ivy got into the driver's seat and Jenny got in the passenger seat. Ivy drove back to their house were Batman was waiting. Harley got out of the car and grabbed Jones by the collar and dragged him out and threw him on his face.
"Got somethin' for ya Batsey!" Harley called.
Batman walked over and grabbed Jones by the shirt and led him towards the Batmobile. Selina, Ivy and Jenny got out of the car. They walked over to Harley.
Harley looked at Jenny and said "ok Kiddo, this is Kitty, er Selina. She and her boyfriend can help find a good home for ya."
"Can I stay with you and Ivy?" Jenny asked.
"Trust me, we'd love that" Harley said "but it might not be a good idea. Me and Red have a lot a' people who don't like us and we don't want anyone coming aftah ya 'cause a' us. Do ya understand?"
"Yes, I understand" Jenny said "can I come visit sometimes?"
"Of course" Ivy said "you're always welcome here."
"And if ya evah need us, ya know where we are."
Jenny looked at Selina and said "thank you for helping me, but can I spend one more night with Harley and Ivy?"
Selina smiled and said "sure, I'll get started trying to find you a good home. You can stay here until I find one as long as it's ok with Harley and Ivy."
"It's fine with us" Ivy said.
"Ok" Selina said "I'll go meet with Bruce and get everything sorted out."
"Thanks Kitty" Harley said.
"Let's go get out of these clothes and have some dinner" Ivy said.
"Sounds good to me" Harley said.
They went inside, Harley cleaned her makeup off and showered, then changed into a baggy red tee shirt and a pair of black sweat pants. Ivy showered and changed into a green shirt and green shorts. Jenny changed into a blue tee shirt and black shorts. Ivy ordered Chinese food for dinner. After dinner, they were all getting ready for bed. Harley was making the couch into a bed. Jenny was helping her, handing her blankets. They heard a small meow, Harley looked down and saw a green kitten walk into the room from outside.
"Oh" Harley said "hey Shrub, where've you been?"*
Ivy walked into the room and said "hey there Shrub, where did you come from?" She waited a second, then looked at Harley and said "he's been in the forest again."
"How do you know that?" Jenny asked.
"I can talk to plants" Ivy said "and little Shrub here is part plant."
"Cool" Jenny said as she knelt down and scratched his head.
He began purring and rubbing against her hand.
"Why was he in the forest?" Jenny asked.
"He's part plant like I said" Ivy said "he likes being around the plants. He also sensed a stranger and might have been a little scared."
"Can he sleep with me tonight?" Jenny asked.
"I don't see why not" Harley said.
That night, Jenny snuggled up with Shrub and slept peacefully through the night. In the morning, Jenny walked into the kitchen with Shrub and set him down. He ran to his food bowl and began to eat. Harley walked in followed by Ivy. Harley began making pancakes for the three of them. Later that afternoon, Selina came to the house and said she had found a home for Jenny.
"It's great" Selina said "a wonderful family in a great neighborhood, good school system, right next to a park and only about fifteen miles from here."
"Sounds great, doesn't it Kiddo?" Harley asked.
"I guess so" Jenny said.
"Don't worry" Ivy said "this isn't goodbye, you can visit whenever you want. You're always welcome here."
Jenny nodded. She walked to Harley's room, packed her clothes and left with Selina.
"I'm gonna miss her" Harley said.
"Me too" Ivy said "but she will come back and visit."
"Hopefully she'll visit soon" Harley said
*Shrub is the name of the cat from 'Harley and Ivy: Kitten'
