MidReal Story

The Boy And His Bud

Scenario:Selina Wayne Kyle lay sprawled across the plush couch in the Batcave, her eyes glinting with mischief as she watched Bruce Wayne meticulously organize his gear. His dedication to his alter ego was admirable, she mused, but sometimes she just wanted to mess it all up. The dim lights cast dramatic shadows on Bruce's face, highlighting the sharp lines of his jaw and the intensity in his gaze. She smirked, knowing how much he'd hate it if she interrupted his routine. But Selina was never one to shy away from a challenge. With a playful leap, she landed on the table beside him, her legs swinging gently. "Bruce," she purred, her voice a siren's call in the cavernous space. "stop." He paused, his hand hovering over the utility belt. "What is it, Selina?" Her smile grew more devilish. "I've got a better idea for how we can spend our night." Bruce glanced at her, his eyes lingering on her curved form before meeting her gaze. "What did you have in mind?" Selina leaned closer, her breath warm against his cheek. "How about we ditch the bat and the bird for tonight?" she whispered, her fingers tracing the line of his jaw. "Just be Bruce and Selina." The corners of Bruce's mouth twitched upward. He set down the belt and turned to face her, his hands finding her waist. "You're playing a dangerous game, Mrs. Wayne." Selina's eyes danced with excitement. "Oh, I know," she murmured, her voice low and seductive. "But I'm willing to bet the stakes are worth it.We can just cuddle" SUMMARY^1: Selina interrupts Bruce's gear organization in the Batcave with a mischievous proposal to spend the night together as Bruce and Selina instead of Batman and Catwoman, suggesting they leave their alter-egos behind for a night of intimacy. She leans in close and whispers her intentions, which briefly amuse him before he sets aside his utility belt and agrees, though warily. Selina's playfulness contrasts with the seriousness of their superhero roles. Bruce chuckled, his grip on her waist tightening. "Cuddle, huh?" "Mmhmm," Selina hummed, leaning in to kiss him softly. "Please?" He sighed, amusement and affection warring within him. "Alright," he conceded, "but only if you promise to keep those claws sheathed." Selina giggled, kissing him again before hopping off the table. "Scout's honor," she said, holding up two fingers in a mock salute. Bruce rolled his eyes but couldn't help smiling. "Alright," he said, "but remember, no funny business." Selina feigned innocence, her eyes wide and her smile as sweet as honey. "I promise," she said, taking his hand and leading him away from the gear. They climbed the stairs to the manor, their laughter echoing through the corridors. Bruce had to admit, it was a refreshing change of pace to leave the darkness of Gotham behind for an evening. As they entered the living room, Selina stopped and looked around, her eyes landing on a stack of mail by the door. "Oh, I almost forgot," she said, pulling away from his embrace. "I have to run a quick errand." Bruce's eyebrow raises. "What is it?" he asked, his voice tight. "You know the Mafia business." SHe says, her eyes shimmering with excitement. "It's nothing you can't handle while I'm gone." He nods"Alright, but be careful. " SUMMARY^1: Bruce and Selina share a moment of domesticity in the Batcave, with Selina convincing him to set aside their superhero personas for an intimate night in. Despite his initial resistance, he agrees, but insists on no trouble from her. Their light-hearted exchange is interrupted when Selina remembers a mafia-related errand she needs to run, leaving Bruce with a sense of unease as she departs. Selina disappeared into the night, leaving Bruce with a sense of unease that gnawed at him. He couldn't shake the feeling that something wasn't quite right. Despite his best efforts to focus on his work, he found himself checking the monitors for any signs of trouble. Two hours later, his reLIZED THAT SHE WASN'T BACK SO HE CALLS HER. NOthing. Bruce's heart pounded in his chest as he called Selina's number again and again. Each unanswered ring was a knell, tolling a sense of foreboding he couldn't ignore. He knew her errand was risky, but she was Catwoman – she could handle herself. Or so he thinks. After an hour he traces her phone. The GPS tracker on Selina's phone led him to an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of Gotham. The air was thick with the stench of decay and the distant wail of sirens. His instincts screamed at him as he approached the dilapidated building. The hairs on the back of his neck stood on end as he realized this wasn't just a simple errand gone awry. This was a trap. He finds her ohone, with a Joker card next to it. Back at the Batcave..... "Hey Alfred!" He calls out, his voice tight with fear. "Alert the Justice League." Alfred's eyes widened as he rushed over, noticing the distress in his voice. "What's happened, sir?" Bruce held out Selina's phone, the Joker card glinting in the stark Batcave lights. "It's the Joker. He's got Selina." SUMMARY^1: Bruce's concern grows as Selina fails to return from her errand, prompting him to trace her phone to an abandoned warehouse. Discovering her phone with a Joker card beside it, he deduces it's a trap and immediately calls for Alfred's help to notify the Justice League of Selina's kidnapping. The gravity of the situation escalates as the Joker's involvement becomes clear. SUMMARY^2: Bruce and Selina, married in their 20s, have a playful exchange in the Batcave, where Selina suggests a night off from their superhero personas. Despite his initial skepticism, Bruce agrees. However, when Selina leaves for a mafia-related errand and doesn't return, Bruce discovers her phone at an abandoned warehouse with a Joker card. This grim clue indicates Selina's kidnapping and leads him to alert the Justice League for assistance. Alfred's face grew grim as he took the phone. "We must act quickly, sir. She's been gone for over two hours. Time is of the essence." Suddenly a video feed pops up on his screen. It's Selina, bruised and bound, the Joker's manic laughter echoing in the background. "Look what I've got here, Batsy!" the Joker taunted, his face twisted into a sadistic grin. "Your little kitty has decided to play with the big boys!""Aww I'm flattered you bastard." She grows, trying to hide the fear in her eyes. Bruce's eyes narrowed, rage building within him as he watched Selina's struggle. The video feed was grainy, but it was clear that she had been beaten and was in serious trouble. He could see the raw terror in her eyes, and it was unlike anything he had ever seen from her before. He had to save her. SUMMARY^1: Alfred confirms the severity of the situation when a video of Selina, beaten and bound, appears on Bruce's screen, with the Joker taunting them. Her state of distress is evident, and Bruce's rage and fear for her safety intensifies his resolve to rescue her immediately. The Joker cackled, waving a knife dangerously close to Selina's face. "You should've kept your claws sharper for me, kitty," he sneered. "I'd only use them on someone who deserves it," Selina spat back, her voice strained but defiant. The Joker gently pulls her hair back, revealing the bruises and cuts that marred her once flawless skin. "Oh, I think you'll find that I'm quite deserving," he said, his voice dropping to a sinister whisper. "Oh?" She hisses. "Yeah," he says, leaning closer, "I've got a whole year's worth of surprises for you." The Jusice League soon arvies. "Whats the probem Bats?" Superman asks, his eyes scanning the room. "Selina's been kidnapped," Bruce says through gritted teeth. Wonder Woman's eyes flash with anger. "We'll find her," she says firmly. "We've got to move fast," Bruce says, his mind racing. "The Joker's playing a game, and Selina's his prize." The team nods gravely, each understanding the gravity of the situation. Soon another feed is up, this one clearer and more disturbing. Selina's ....in...another...outfit. Her eyes are filled with a mix of anger and pain as she glares at the camera. "You won't get away with this," she promises, her voice shaking. The Joker's laughter fills the room, chilling everyone to the bone. "Oh, but I will," he says, his voice dripping with malice. "And I'll enjoy every second of it." Se tries to swing her arm but is caught by a sharp pain and screams. The Joker laughs "C'mon Selina, play nice!" Selina scoffs, "You're the one holding the knife, Joker." The Joker's smile widens, revealing his sharpened teeth. "True, true," he says, "but you're the one who's going to play my game." The feed goes dark, leaving Bruce and the Justice League in stunned silence. "We might get answers through her best friend." DIana suggessts. SUMMARY^1: The Joker broadcasts a disturbing video of Selina, prompting the Justice League's arrival. Despite her injuries, Selina remains defiant, which only fuels the Joker's sadism. The video cuts off, leaving the group in a dire situation. Diana suggests interrogating Selina's best friend for information, indicating the urgency of their mission to rescue Selina from the Joker's twisted game. Bruce nods, his jaw clenched. "Harley Quinn" Nightwing stands up "Did you tell her sister?" Bruce's eyes flash with anger. "Not yet," he says. "Alfred could you call Officer Rosa, let her know everything?" (That is Selinas older sister, they are like best friends,) Alfred nodded gravely. "Of course, Master Wayne." "Good," Bruce says, turning to the team. "We're going in, but we need to be smart. The Joker's not just dangerous, he's unpredictable." Superman nods. "Understood. We'll coordinate with the Gotham PD and set up a perimeter." Wonder Woman places a comforting hand on Bruce's shoulder. "We'll find her," she assures him. Bruce nods, trying to keep the fear at bay. "Thank you," he murmurs. An hour later...They get another sickening feed... The video flickers back to life, and Selina is in a different location...a heart shaped arena... her eyes bloodshot and her clothes torn. The Joker is nowhere to be seen, but her bruises are more pronounced, and there's a new look of desperation in her eyes. "Please," she whispers, "help me." Bruce feels his heart drop into his stomach. "We're coming, Selina," he says, though he knows she can't hear him. "We're coming." The Joker appears with a long curved knife, the blade glinting menacingly in the dim light. Selina's eyes widen, and she tries to struggle, but she's too weak. "Now, now, kitty," the Joker croons, "let's not ruin the fun." Bruce watches in horror as the Joker approaches Selina, the knife moving closer to her skin. SUMMARY^1: The Justice League learns Selina is in a heart-shaped arena and her condition has worsened. Bruce is distraught, and Superman suggests involving the Gotham PD for a coordinated approach. As the Joker continues to taunt them, Selina's desperation grows, increasing the urgency of their rescue attempt. The Justice League members exchange grim looks. They know time is running out, and they need to act fast. Superman takes to the sky, using his super hearing to scan the city for any signs of the Joker's hideout. Batman, with his vast knowledge of Gotham's underbelly, starts to piece together possible locations based on the Joker's past patterns. Soon Harley Quinn arvives along with Rosa and Derek Gonzalez, Sisters sister, and her sisters husband. "Why'da call Bats?" Harley sneers, her eyes darting around the room nervously. "Because she's in trouble," Bruce says firmly, not taking his eyes off the screen. "Who?" "The Joker has Selina," Nightwing says, his voice tight with emotion. Harley's expression changes from one of confusion to horror. "What?" she gasps, her hand flying to her mouth. "Where is she?" Rosa, Selina's sister, "Bruce what do you mean shes just gone?" Bruce's fists clench as he watches the feed. "We're tracing the signal now," he says, his voice a low growl. "But he's nowhere to be found" Derek, Rosa's husband, a detective with the Gotham PD, looks grim. "I'll get a team together," he says, pulling out his phone. "We'll check all the known Joker hideouts." Rosa nods, her eyes never leaving the screen. "Whatever it takes," she whispers, her voice thick with fear. Rosa had wanted to tell selina something tonight...she is pregnant. SUMMARY^1: The Justice League strategizes, with Superman using his super hearing to locate Selina. Harley Quinn, Selina's sister Rosa, and her husband Derek arrive and are informed of Selina's dire situation. Bruce is consumed by the urgency of rescuing Selina, while Derek, a detective, offers to mobilize Gotham PD to search known Joker hideouts. Meanwhile, Rosa shares a personal secret, revealing she is pregnant and had wanted to tell Selina tonight. SUMMARY^2: After Selina's kidnapping is confirmed by a taunting video, the Justice League assembles to rescue her. Superman contributes with his super hearing, while Derek and Rosa offer to involve the Gotham PD. The situation is exacerbated by Selina's worsening condition, and Rosa shares a personal secret: she is pregnant and had wanted Selina to be the first to know. While the others spring into action, Alfred stays by Bruce's side, his hand on his shoulder. "We will find her, sir," he says quietly. "We must remain calm and focused." Bruce nods, his jaw tight. "You're right," he says, his eyes never leaving Selina's tortured form on the screen. He can't shake the feeling that he's failed her, that he should have seen this coming. A new feed...horrific... Selina is now hanging from chains, her wrists and ankles bound. The Joker enters the frame, a clownish grin plastered on his face. "Hello, lover," he says to the camera, waving cheerfully. "Miss me?" Selina's eyes burn with fury and despair. "Bruce," she whispers, her voice barely audible. "Help me." The Joker's laughter echoes through the room. "Ah, Selina," he says, his tone mockingly gentle. "Don't you know by now? He doesn't care about you. He never did." Selina's eyes widen in shock. "That's not true," she says, her voice shaking. "Oh, but it is," the Joker croons. "He's probably with her right now. You know, the one who really matters." "Who?" Selina asks, her voice strained. The Joker leans in close, his breath hot on Selina's face. "Diana." SUMMARY^1: Alfred remains with Bruce, urging calm and focus as the Justice League acts. A new feed shows Selina suspended by chains, with the Joker taunting Selina with claims of Bruce's infidelity with Diana, causing Selina distress and disbelief. Selina's mind reels. "Wonder Woman?" she asks, incredulously. "Oh, you know her," the Joker says, his smile growing wider. "He's probably whispering sweet nothings in her ear right now." Selina shakes her head, trying to clear the fog of doubt that's seeping in. "No," she says, her voice firm. "Bruce loves me." "Love is a fickle thing, isn't it?" the Joker says, his eyes gleaming. "Easy to lose, easy to replace." Diana, Batman's partner, the woman he trusts above all others. The thought of them together is like a knife twisting in Selina's gut. Watching from the Batcave, Bruce feels his rage boiling over. He can't let Selina think he's abandoned her. He has to find her now. Diana, is trying her hardest not to cry, knowing that Selina isn't in a stable state of mind. "Bruce, she's just trying to get to you," she says, her voice shaking. "Don't listen to him." Rosa, tears streaming down her face, checks her gun and badge, "I'm gonna patrol Gotham, I'll call if I get any updates." Harley looks at Bruce with a mix of anger and pity. "You gotta save her, Puddin," she says, using her old pet name for the Joker. "She's nothin' without you." Bruce nods, his resolve hardening. "I will," he says. "No matter what it takes." But as the days turn into weeks, and the feeds from the Joker become more and more disturbing, Selina starts to believe the Joker's taunts. Her spirit, usually unbreakable, starts to crack under the relentless barrage of his twisted words. SUMMARY^1: The Joker's taunts about Bruce and Diana's supposed affair cause Selina to doubt Bruce's love. Despite Diana's reassurances, Selina's mental state deteriorates as the days pass and the video feeds grow more disturbing. Bruce remains determined to save Selina, while Rosa, unable to bear the torment, decides to patrol Gotham for leads. Harley, sympathetic, encourages Bruce to rescue Selina, highlighting her importance to him. The Joker's clownish visage loomed over her, a constant reminder of her helplessness. "You're nothing but a plaything, Selina," he whispers in her ear, his breath hot and rancid. "Bruce has moved on. He's with someone else now." Selina shakes her head, trying to hold onto the belief that Bruce would never leave her, that he would come for her. "No," she murmurs weakly. "Bruce loves me." "Love is just a four-letter lie," the Joker laughs. "You're just another conquest to him. A trophy to be won and discarded." Sobs wrack her body "NO!" she screams, thrashing against her restraints."Your lyin-- pleasee." Days bleed into each other, a never-ending cycle of pain and despair. The Joker's taunts become more personal, more vicious. He tells her of Bruce's supposed affair, painting a picture of a love she no longer recognizes. Selina's thoughts swirl in a whirlwind of doubt and fear. Was their love just an illusion? Was she ever more than just a trophy to him? Her eyes glaze over as she watches the Joker play with his cards, his twisted smile never fading. "Why bother fighting?" he says, flipping through the cards. "You know he's not coming for you." The words hit her like a ton of bricks, and she feels something within her begin to give way. "Why?" she asks, her voice barely above a whisper. "Because you're not worth it," the Joker says, his eyes gleaming with malice. "You never were." Bruce slams his fist on the control panel, the screens flickering before him. The Joker's taunts echo in his ears, taunts that he knows are calculated to break Selina's spirit. "Alfred, any progress?" he growls, his voice tight with rage. "None, sir," Alfred's calm voice responds. "The signal is being bounced around various locations. It's as if he's playing a game of cat and mouse with us." "We can't let him win," Bruce says, his jaw set. "We have to find her." Rosa's updates are infrequent, her voice strained with every call. The lack of information is driving them all insane, but Bruce knows Selina's sister won't rest until she finds her. SUMMARY^1: Selina's mental state continues to decline as the Joker's taunts about Bruce's infidelity grow more intense. She questions the authenticity of their love. Meanwhile, Bruce is desperate to find her, but the Joker's use of technology to obscure Selina's location makes it a challenging game of cat and mouse. Rosa's efforts to find Selina through her police connections remain unsuccessful, adding to the tension. SUMMARY^2: Selina's mental state deteriorates as the Joker feeds her false information about Bruce's infidelity. Despite the Justice League's efforts, including Superman's and Harley's, Selina remains captive. The Joker's use of technology hinders their rescue mission, and Rosa's attempts through the Gotham PD yield no results, exacerbating the tension. The next Morning.... Nobody went to sleep in the Batcave. They all stayed up trying to find Selina. Alfred brewed strong black coffee, trying to keep the team going despite the heavy weight of dread in the air. Bruce, his eyes bloodshot and face etched with tension, studied the monitors, searching for any clue to her whereabouts. On the screen, Selina's head hangs low, her body bruised and broken. The Joker's laughter pierced the quiet of the cave like shards of glass. "Looks like your Bat's too busy with Diana," he sneers, his voice a knife twisting in Selina's heart. "He's probably forgotten all about you." Selina's eyes widen with disbelief. "No," she whispers. "Bruce wouldn't... He loves me." The Joker leans in, his face grotesque in the harsh light. "Love?" he scoffs. "That's just a word people use to justify their weaknesses. You're nothing but a toy to him, Selina. A toy he's tired of playing with." The sound of a chain rattling brought everyone to their feet in the Batcave. Bruce's eyes narrowed as the Joker swung the weapon with a flourish. "You're a liar," Selina spits through clenched teeth. "Am I?" the Joker asks, raising the chain high. "We'll see how much you believe that when I'm done with you." The chain comes down, the sound of it connecting with Selina's flesh making Bruce's stomach turn. She screams, and the sound echoes through the cave, a tortured symphony of pain and despair. He continues to beat her, until the chain finnaly snaps. "I'm sorry," Selina whimpers, tears streaming down her face. "Plea-" The Joker doesn't let her finish. "You're sorry?" he screams. She nods. "For what exactly?" SUMMARY^1: A restless night at the Batcave yields no progress in finding Selina. The Joker sends another taunting video, depicting Selina's severe physical and emotional torment. Bruce is haunted by the sight and Selina's weakening spirit as she begs for mercy, which only fuels the Joker's sadistic enjoyment. The tension rises as the Joker continues to manipulate Selina's doubt in Bruce's love. "For whatever I did wrong~~" SHe sobs choking on her blood. The Joker laughs, the sound echoing through the cavernous space. "You think this is about something you did wrong?" He says, his eyes gleaming with madness. "This isn't about you, Selina. It's about him. It's always about him." The chain rises and falls, each blow a symphony of agony. Selina's cries fill the air, her once vibrant spirit fading with each strike. First to cry is Harley, who rushes out of the room, unable to bear the sight of her former tormentor's handiwork. Then Diana, her Amazonian resolve shattering like glass. Nightwing, the first Robin, clenches his fists, his rage palpable. Bruce watches, his eyes burning with a fury that could melt steel. The Joker's taunts become a white noise, drowned out by the thundering beat of his own heart. He has to save Selina. He can't let this monster win. The video feed cuts out abruptly, leaving them all in silence. The sudden absence of sound is more deafening than the screams that came before. Rosa's voice cracks over the intercom. "I've got nothing. ANything on your end?" SUMMARY^1: The Joker's video reveals Selina's unbearable suffering, causing emotional distress among the Justice League. Harley and Diana are visibly affected, while Nightwing's rage is palpable. The feed abruptly ends, leaving the group in a tense silence. Rosa's lack of progress in the search underscores their desperation. Bruce's eyes are glued to the black screen. "Keep looking," he says, his voice strained. "We can't give up." "We won't," Derek promises, his jaw tight. The room is a flurry of activity as the Justice League and the Gotham PD work tirelessly to locate Selina. Every lead, no matter how small, is followed. Every possible hideout is searched. But the Joker is like a ghost, leaving no trace behind. Days turn into weeks, and the hope of finding Selina alive starts to dwindle. But Bruce refuses to give up. He knows Selina is a fighter, that she won't let the Joker break her so easily. A monther later... The Joker's laughter fills Selina's ears as she's dragged through the cold, dank halls of his twisted amusement park. She's lost track of the days, the pain a constant companion. Her body is bruised and broken, but it's the emotional torment that truly wounds her. She's been subjected to unspeakable acts, each one designed to break her spirit and make her feel worthless. One night, when the pain is too much to bear, she whispers into the darkness, "Bruce, please find me." The Joker's cackle is the only response. "Your prince isn't coming, Selina," he says, his voice a serpent's hiss. "You're all alone now." The words are a punch to the gut, and Selina feels something within her shatter. SUMMARY^1: The Justice League and Gotham PD tirelessly search for Selina, following every lead but to no avail. Bruce's hope wavers as days become weeks, but he refuses to quit. Meanwhile, Selina's ordeal continues in the Joker's hellish amusement park, her spirit crushed by his relentless emotional and physical abuse. SUMMARY^2: The Joker sends a distressing video of Selina, causing an emotional toll on the Justice League. Despite relentless searches, Selina remains unfound, trapped in the Joker's amusement park. Bruce's hope diminishes with each passing day, but his determination to rescue her is unshaken. SUMMARY^3: Bruce and Selina, both in their 20s and married, have a playful moment in the Batcave before Selina heads out for a risky errand. Upon her disappearance, Bruce discovers a Joker card and a disturbing video, confirming her kidnapping. The Justice League, including Superman and Harley, is assembled, but despite their efforts and Rosa's involvement of the Gotham PD, Selina's whereabouts remain unknown. The Joker's use of technology and an elaborate trap at his amusement park thwarts rescue attempts. Meanwhile, Selina's mental state is compromised by the Joker's manipulation and Rosa's personal crisis of a secret pregnancy intensifies the urgency. The door to her cell opens, and she's pulled out, her legs giving out beneath her. The Joker looms over her, his eyes gleaming with madness. "Let's play a new game," he says, his voice sickeningly cheerful. "One where you learn your place." Selina tries to fight, to claw her way out of this nightmare, but she's too weak. She can't escape as he violates her in the most heinous way possible. Each sickening thrust feels like a betrayal, like Bruce is watching, unable to save her. She screams for it to stop, for the pain to end. But the Joker only laughs, enjoying every moment of her agony. Bruce, back at the Batcave, feels like he's going insane. The guilt and fear are a constant, pulsing ache in his chest. He's failed Selina in the worst way imaginable. He's failed to keep her safe, failed to be the hero she deserves. Diana, seeing the toll this is taking on him, tries to offer comfort, but he pushes her away. "This is my fault," he says, his voice thick with self-loathing. "I should have seen this coming." Nightwing, unable to watch his mentor crumble, takes the lead on the search. He knows the streets of Gotham like the back of his hand, and he won't rest until Selina is found. The next feed is worse than any of the others. Selina's eyes are vacant, the light in them extinguished. The Joker stands over her, a twisted grin on his face. "Looks like she's learned her lesson," he says to the camera. Rosa, who has been working tirelessly alongside the Gotham PD, slams her fist into the wall. "We need to find her," she says, her voice a mix of anger and despair. Since she is pregant, she can't go into the field. Derek wraps an arm around her. "We will," he says, his voice firm. "But we have to be smart about it." Bruce nods, his eyes never leaving Selina's broken form on the screen. He's going to find her, no matter what it takes. He's going to save her, and then he's going to make the Joker pay. A new feed... The screen flickers to life, and Selina is lying on a cold, concrete floor. Her body is covered in bruises and cuts, and she's wearing nothing but shreds of what used to be her costume. The Joker stands over her, holding a knife, his eyes gleaming with malice. "Time for the grand finale," he says, his voice echoing in the empty room. Selina looks up at him, her eyes devoid of hope. "Please," she whispers, "just kill me." The Joker laughs, the sound chilling even Bruce's blood. "Oh no," he says, "that would be too easy." The knife comes down, and Selina's screams pierce the air. Bruce feels his world shatter into a million pieces. He can't take it anymore. He needs to end this. He needs to save Selina before it's too late. "Anything Oracle?" "No, but I'm still searching," Barbara's voice says through the coms. Bruce turns to the screen again "I'm coming sweetheart." He mummurs, tears rolling down his cheeks, even though he knows she can't hear him. After being viciously stabbed over 165 times, Selina's screams turn to whimpers. The Joker laughs "Looks like the cat has had her fill," he says, tossing the knife aside. "But don't worry, I've got plenty more tricks up my sleeve." Bruce's hand shakes as he watches Selina's body convulse with pain. He has to get to her, he has to save her. The Justice League members exchange worried glances. They know what the Joker is capable of, and the thought of Selina suffer 2 months later... A new feed, Selina is barely recognizable, her once vibrant eyes now dull and lifeless. The Joker walks in, an axe in hand. "Time for some fun," he says, his voice filled with glee. Selina's body jerks as she's dragged to her feet. Her breath comes in ragged gasps, and she can barely stand. Bruce feels like he's going to be sick as he watches the Joker raise the axe. "No," he whispers, his voice hoarse with pain. The axe comes down, and Selina's screams fill the air. The Joker laughs, a sound that makes Bruce's skin crawl. The video feed cuts out, leaving the room in stunned silence. Rosa, who had been sitting quietly in the corner, her hands over her swollen belly, jumps to her feet. "I can't take this anymore," she says, her voice shaking. "I need to do something." Derek nods, his eyes hard. "We'll find her," he says. "But we can't let him see us comin-" "We dont even know where to look!" She yells, "It's been 5 months!" Back on screen, Selina is lying in a pool of blood, her breathing shallow. Oracle slams her fist on her console "No trace nothing. I can't trace the feed." SUMMARY^1: The Joker's torture of Selina escalates, culminating in a horrific act of violence that leaves her near death. Despite the Justice League's efforts, the location remains unknown, and the emotional toll is heavy on the team. Bruce's guilt and determination are palpable, and even as Selina begs for death, they continue searching, though the hope diminishes with each passing week. The latest video shows Selina in a dire state, prompting an emotional outburst from Rosa, who is struggling with her pregnancy and inability to directly help. Oracle confirms no trace of Selina's whereabouts from the feeds. 9 months later.. Rosa was so stressed out she had a miscarriage.She was devastated but she had to keep looking for Selina, she was her baby sister and she was all she had left. Bruce had become a shell of the man he once was, his rage and fear consuming him. The Joker's taunts had taken a toll on Selina. She no longer believed in rescue, in love, or in herself. She was a broken woman, a mere shadow of the fiery Catwoman that had once roamed the streets of Gotham. Her spirit, once unbreakable, was now shattered beyond repair. The Joker, not satisfied with the state of his captive, decided to up the ante. He approached Selina, who was barely conscious, and whispered, "It's time to show you what a real clown does to a cat." He picked up the axe, a twisted smile on his face, ready to continue his sick game. Bruce and the team watched the feed, their hearts breaking with every blow the Joker rained down on Selina. They had followed every lead, searched every corner of Gotham, but it was as if she had disappeared into thin air. The Joker was playing with them, enjoying the pain he inflicted not just on Selina, but on all of them. The video goes on, Selina's screams piercing the Batcave like a thousand needles. Bruce feels his world crumbling around him. The Joker's laughter rings in his ears, a constant reminder of his failure. He's lost track of time, lost track of everything except the need to find Selina. SUMMARY^1: After 9 months, Selina's condition worsens as the Joker continues his psychological and physical torment. The tragedy of Rosa's miscarriage adds to the team's despair, as they remain unable to locate Selina despite relentless efforts. Bruce's guilt and anger consume him, turning him into a mere shell. The Justice League witnesses Selina's unbearable suffering in the latest video, and the Joker's taunts are a painful reminder of their ongoing failure to rescue her. SUMMARY^2: The Joker's abuse of Selina reaches a peak, with her near death. Despite their exhaustive efforts, the Justice League cannot locate her, causing immense emotional strain. Rosa experiences a miscarriage, adding to the group's despair. Bruce's hope diminishes, and the Joker's taunts continue in the background, highlighting their ineffectiveness. A new feed comes in. The Joker is standing in a room that's a twisted parody of a bridal suite, Selina bound to a chair, her head forced back. His eyes gleam with malice as he brings out a bottle of what looks like champagne. "Let's toast to your new life," he says, his voice a chilling whisper. The cork pops, and Selina flinches as the liquid sprays her face. The Joker leans in, his grin stretching wider. "Lick me," he commands, his painted red tongue outstretched. Selina's eyes meet the camera, and for a moment, she seems to find a spark of defiance. But the spark quickly dies as she obeys, her tongue moving slowly, painfully, across the Joker's disgusting mouth. Thoose to cry were Harley, Damian, Rosa, Diana and Alfred. Even Dick and Derek had to look away. The Joker's laughter fills the room, a sound that seems to echo through the very fabric of the Batcave. Bruce's eyes narrow, his rage reaching a boiling point. "This ends now," he says, his voice a low, deadly growl. The Joker's smile falters as Selina's tongue traces the edges of his mouth, a silent plea for mercy. But mercy is not something the Joker knows. He pulls back, the grin on his face turning to a sneer. "You're just a dirty little whore," he says, spitting in Selina's face. "Just like all the other toys I've played with." The words hit Selina like a slap, and she starts to cry, her tears mixing with the Joker's saliva. "I-I'm So sorry~" She sobs, chokeing on her blod and tears. Diana whispers to the screen "Don't be." The Joker's eyes light up with glee at Selina's misery. "Oh, she's learned her lesson," he says to the camera, his voice taunting. "But the fun's not over yet." He moves behind Selina, and the sound of a belt unbuckling fills the air. Bruce's fists clench, his body coiled like a spring. He's going to rip the Joker's head from his shoulders. The feed goes dark, and the room is filled with the sound of Selina's muffled screams. "Please don't do this to her." The Flash whispers, his eyes glistening with tears. "Oracle." "Nothing. I' can't find him-" She starts to say but Bruce cuts her off. "Find him danm it!" "I'M TRYING!" She yells back "He knows what hes doing. I haven't found a single tace to his whereabouts." The Joker's laughter echoes through the room, a sound that seems to follow them wherever they go. They know what's happening to Selina, but they can't do anything to stop it. The helplessness is a knife in Bruce's gut, twisting with every second that ticks by. The next day... SUMMARY^1: In a twisted bridal suite setup, the Joker forces Selina to lick him, pushing her to new depths of despair. The Justice League, including a tearful Harley, watches in horror. Bruce's anger peaks, and the Joker's words trigger a powerful emotional response from Selina. Despite Oracle's continuous efforts, they still can't find a trace of the Joker's location, leaving everyone feeling helpless and trapped in a cycle of pain and despair. The new feed starts, and Selina is barely conscious. The Joker cackles, "Look who's here," and the door to the room opens. Bane, the monstrous brute, walks in, his eyes on Selina's battered body. Selina's eyes widen with terror as she recognizes her new tormentor. Bruce feels like he's going to be sick. "No," he whispers, his fists clenching. But the Joker only laughs. "You know the rules," he says to Bane, handing him the keys to Selina's chains. "Take your turn, big guy." Bane approaches Selina with a sadistic smile, his massive body casting a shadow over her. Bruce watches, his heart pounding in his chest, as Selina is violated once again, her screams echoing through the Batcave. She tries to fight him off, but she's too weak, too broken. The room is filled with the sound of flesh slapping against flesh, the Joker's laughter, and Selina's sobs. Bruce wants to close his eyes, to block out the horror, but he can't. He has to watch. He has to remember every detail so that he can avenge her. As Bane finishes, the Joker claps his hands together. "Bravo," he says, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "You've outdone yourself." Selina lies there, her eyes glazed over. She doesn't move, doesn't speak. She's lost in a world of pain and despair. Bruce finally breaks and starts crying, his shoulders heaving with sobs. He can't take it anymore. He has to save Selina before it's too late. The Joker, seemingly bored with Selina's condition, turns to the camera. "I think it's time for a new game," he says, his smile never wavering. "One that'll really get your blood pumping, Batman." The screen goes black, and Bruce knows that the Joker isn't done with Selina. He's just getting started. The next feed is Selina being raped by Two-Face, the Joker's twisted sense of humor on full display. Selina's whimpers and cries fill the Batcave, and Bruce feels his heart break all over again. He's failed her. He's failed everyone. The team watches in horror, unable to do anything but listen. Even the stoic Alfred starts to shake, his handkerchief pressed to his mouth. The Joker's laughter echoes through the darkness, a haunting sound that follows Selina's cries. "You're not worth it," he says to Selina, his voice a whisper in her ear. "You never were." Bruce knows that he has to find Selina. He has to save her. He can't let the Joker win. The search intensifies, every member of the Justice League and the Gotham PD on high alert. They comb through every inch of the city, following every lead, no matter how small. But the Joker is always one step ahead. The days turn into weeks, and the feeds keep coming. Each one more twisted than the last. Selina's condition worsens, her spirit slowly dying with every new assault. And still, no trace of her location. The next feed after being raping Selina again the Joker asks her whats she wants. "a blanket...." She whispers, her voice a mere thread of sound, The Joker's twisted grin widens. "Ah, poor kitty," he coos, stroking her cheek with a finger that feels like a snake slithering across her skin. "Bane, she's feeling a bit...frisky." SUMMARY^1: A new video shows Selina being brutally assaulted by Bane under the Joker's instructions, pushing Bruce to his limits. The Joker introduces a sadistic game involving Two-Face, with Selina suffering through each new atrocity. Despite the Justice League's heightened search efforts, they remain unable to find Selina, and her condition continues to deteriorate. Her desperate pleas for a blanket highlight her dwindling hope and the Joker's relentless cruelty. Bane steps forward, his eyes on Selina's barely-covered form. His massive body towers over her, and she can feel his hot breath on her neck as he reaches for her. She tries to fight, to scream, but the Joker's laughter drowns out her pleas. The camera zooms in, capturing every moment of Selina's degradation. Bane's brutal hands tear away what's left of her costume, revealing the bruises and scars that mar her once-perfect skin. She closes her eyes, trying to block out the horror, but the pain is everywhere. It's in the cold metal of the chains that bite into her wrists, in the smell of the Joker's sickly sweet cologne, and in the sound of his sadistic laughter. The beast that was once a man named Bane looms over her, his eyes devoid of any semblance of humanity. Selina tries to find a shred of dignity, a spark of hope, but it's gone. The Joker's twisted games have taken everything from her, leaving only a hollow shell. As Bane begins to violate her, she can't help but wonder if this is what it feels like to die. Thoose who cry are Harley, who's now crying uncontrollably, Rosa, who's lost her baby because of this, Alfred who's trying to maintain his composure, Diana who's hand is over her mouth, Barry, who's cying, Oliver who's clenching his bow, Damian who's face is a mask of rage, and Derek who's trying to keep everyone calm. SUMMARY^1: Selina endures another round of torture, this time at the hands of Bane, as the Joker continues his sadistic game. Her physical and emotional state worsens, leaving her a mere shadow of her former self. The Justice League, already reeling from recent events, watches in despair, unable to intervene. The traumatic scene unfolds, with each member reacting to Selina's suffering in their own way, their unity strained by the horror they're witnessing. SUMMARY^2: The Joker escalates Selina's torment, including a forced interaction with Bane. Oracle's efforts to find Selina remain unsuccessful. The Justice League's unity falters as they witness Selina's worsening condition in a series of disturbing videos, with each member feeling the emotional burden differently. Bruce watches the feed, his eyes burning with rage and despair. He's failed her. He's failed Selina, and he's failed as Batman. He can't save her. He can't even find her. The feed cuts off abruptly, leaving them all in silence. The room feels like a tomb, the weight of their failure crushing the air from their lungs. Days turn into weeks, and the feeds continue. Selina's condition deteriorates, and with each new video, Bruce feels a piece of himself die. The Joker's taunts grow more personal, more vicious. He knows he's breaking Selina, and it's all for Bruce's benefit. The next feed starts, and Selina is standing in the middle of a room, surrounded by the Joker's twisted toys. She looks so small, so vulnerable. "Let's play a game," the Joker says, his voice like nails on a chalkboard. "You're going to try to escape, kitty. But remember, if you fail, I'll have to punish you." "I don't want to play." She mumurs slumping to the floor. "Oh, but you will," he says, and kicks her hard in the stomach. "You're going to run, and I'm going to chase you. And if you don't make it out, well..." He laughs, a sound that makes Bruce's skin crawl. "Let's just say you won't like the alternative." The catch was...there is no exit. SUMMARY^1: The Joker's torture of Selina escalates as he forces her into a sadistic escape game. Bruce, watching the feeds, feels his hope and sanity slipping away with each new atrocity. The Justice League remains powerless to rescue her, their emotions raw and their efforts fruitless. The realization that Selina is trapped with no actual means of escape adds a new layer of horror to the situation. The Joker's twisted sense of humor is on full display as Selina stumbles to her feet, her eyes searching the room desperately. She knows there's no escape, but she has to try. For Bruce, for herself, she has to keep fighting. As Selina makes a run for it, the Joker's laughter follows her like a dark shadow. She can hear his footsteps, heavy and deliberate, as he gives chase. The room is a maze of horrors, each turn revealing a new nightmare. She tries to ignore the pain, the fear, but it's all-consuming. The Joker's laughter grows louder, closer, until she can feel his breath on the back of her neck. She screams, her body trembling with the effort to keep moving. But it's no use. He's too fast, too strong. The room goes black, and Selina feels herself being hoisted into the air. The Joker's grip is like a vice, squeezing the life out of her. "You lost," he says, his voice a chilling whisper. The screen flickers back to life, and Selina is strung up by her wrists, her toes barely brushing the ground. The Joker stands in front of her, a whip in one hand, a sadistic smile on his face. "Looks like you need a little...motivation," he says, and the whip cracks through the air, biting into Selina's already bruised and bleeding flesh. Her screams are music to his ears, and he revels in the power he has over her. Bruce watches, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles are white. He wants to rip the Joker's throat out, but he's trapped in the Batcave, forced to watch the love of his life suffer. The Joker's face is a twisted mask of pleasure as he continues to torture Selina. "You know, I'm starting to enjoy this," he says, lashing her again. "You're such a good sport." The Justice League and Alfred look on in horror, their eyes never leaving the screen. They've never seen Bruce like this, so helpless, so defeated. The Joker's game has taken a heavy toll on all of them, but none more so than Selina. The whipping continues, Selina's screams mixing with the Joker's laughter. The sound is a symphony of pain and despair, and Bruce feels like he's going to shatter. He's failed her in every way possible. Selina thrashes and begs, her voice barely a whisper. "Please...I-m sorry" SUMMARY^1: Selina is subjected to an escape game designed to fail, and upon her inevitable recapture, the Joker takes great pleasure in her suffering, using a whip to inflict pain. The Justice League and Alfred watch in horror as Selina's condition worsens, her spirit crumbling with each lash. Bruce's anguish is palpable, and the Joker's sadistic joy in her pain further fuels his anger and sense of failure. The relentlessness of the torture and the group's inability to intervene deepens their collective despair. The Joker's smile widens, and he leans in close to her ear. "You're pathetic," he whispers. "You're nothing but a toy for me to play with." The whip cracks once more, and Selina goes limp, her body no longer able to endure the pain. Bruce feels his world collapse around him. He's lost her. The feed abruptly cuts off, leaving them all in stunned silence. The only sound in the Batcave is the echo of Selina's last agonized cry. Bruce slumps in his chair, his eyes unfocused. He's lost everything. His love, his hope, his purpose. The Joker has won. A full year later.... The Joker sends another message, this one more taunting than the rest. "Miss me?" he says, his voice a mocking sing-song. He hod out four canisters, and one of the rolls away toward Selina who is laying in her own blood on the floor. As the Joker is talking to the camera, Selina uses her last bit of energy to throw it at the Joker, hitting him in the head, and he falls to the ground unconsious. She leans back on the wall all her energy gone. SUMMARY^1: The Joker's final act of cruelty against Selina leaves her barely alive, her spirit crushed. A year has passed since the harrowing events, yet a new message arrives. Selina, on the brink of death, finds the strength to fight back, striking the Joker with a canister and rendering him unconscious. This unexpected turn gives her a chance to survive, offering a glimmer of hope amidst the darkness. SUMMARY^2: Selina endures a series of sadistic escape games designed to fail. The Justice League remains unable to rescue her, their unity strained by the trauma. Selina's spirit diminishes with each failed attempt, reaching a breaking point. A year later, she surprisingly fights back, leaving the Joker unconscious and giving everyone a glimmer of hope. The camera zooms out, revealing Selina's shackled body and the unconscious Joker sprawled on the floor. Her eyes are hollow, her spirit all but extinguished. The Justice League watches in disbelief, their hearts racing as Selina struggles to breathe. Harley touches the screen "Keep fighting Selina," she whispers through her tears. The Joker gets up, holding his head with one hand, his other reaching for Selina. "You're going to regret that," he snarls, but before he can react, Selina starts crying. Not from pain, but from something deeper, something primal. Her sobs echo in the cold, damp room. The Joker pauses, his smile fading. "What's the matter, kitty?" he asks, genuinely curious. "Please," Selina gasps, "just...make it stop." The room falls silent, even the Joker's laughter seems to die away. The Joker's eyes narrow, his curiosity piqued. "Make what stop?" he asks, his voice a low, dangerous whisper. "This...game," Selina says, her voice barely audible. "Make it end." The Joker leans in, his face a mask of mock concern. "But why would I do that?" he says, his voice dripping with malice. "It's just getting started." He grabs Selina's chin, forcing her to look at him. "You're my masterpiece," he says, his eyes gleaming. "And I'm not done playing with you yet. Bruce doesn't even care to save you....He's busy with his other lover. He doesn't love you Selina. He never did." The words hit Selina like a sledgehammer, and she feels a fresh wave of despair wash over her. "Why?" SUMMARY^1: Selina, on the verge of death, fakes weakness to manipulate the Joker, who falls for it momentarily. However, her pleas for the torment to end only serve to amuse him further, as he sees her as his ultimate "masterpiece" to be continually tormented. The Joker delivers a crushing emotional blow by claiming Bruce has moved on with another lover, shattering Selina's hope and leaving her in a state of profound despair. The Joker's smile widens. "Because your nothing to him, he's busy with Diana." The room goes cold. The Joker has hit a nerve, and Selina's eyes fill with tears. "But-he said he loves me." The Joker laughs, a harsh, grating sound. "Oh, he says a lot of things," he says, his grip on Selina's chin tightening. "But actions speak louder than words, don't they?" He releases her, and she falls back against the wall, her breathing shallow. SUMMARY^1: The Joker uses Selina's desperate hope against her, claiming Bruce has replaced her with Diana, one of the League members. This revelation shatters Selina's spirit further, leaving her in a state of shock and disbelief as she grapples with the potential betrayal by the man she loves. The Joker's cruel words echo through the room, deepening the emotional torment she endures. The next feed starts, and Selina's heart sinks as she sees the Joker holding a pair of glow sticks, his twisted grin spreading wide. "Let's light up the night," he says, snapping them to reveal the bright, neon colors. He approaches her, the sticks glowing eerily in the darkness. Selina's eyes widen in horror as she realizes his intentions. The Joker doesn't just want to rape her; he wants to defile her in every way imaginable. The Joker starts to taunt Selina, his eyes gleaming with malicious intent. "You're going to scream for me," he says, his voice low and menacing. "You're going to beg for it." Selina's mind races, searching for a way out, a way to end this nightmare. But she knows there is none. The Joker's games have no limits, no mercy. Her body tenses as he brings the glow sticks closer, the cold plastic touching her skin. The light from them seems to pierce her soul, a cruel reminder of the darkness that has consumed her life. The Joker's laughter fills the room as he forces the glow sticks into Selina, the sound of snapping plastic echoing through the cavernous space. Selina's screams are muffled by the gag in her mouth, but her eyes tell the whole story. The pain, the humiliation, the despair. Bruce watches in horror, his fists clenching and unclenching. The Joker's sadism knows no bounds, and Selina's agony is a constant reminder of his failure. The Joker pulls out the broken glow sticks, his eyes never leaving Selina's. "You're mine," he says, his voice a sneer. "Forever and ever." The feed goes dark, and the room is left in silence, the echo of Selina's muffled screams hanging in the air. The next day... He comse into veiw to rape her againthis time with a pair of barbed wire-covered dildos. Rosa looks away, her face pale. "I can't...I can't watch this," she says, her voice shaking. Derek puts an arm around her, his jaw clenched. "We have to," he says, his eyes never leaving the screen. "We can't let him win." The Joker cackles as he straps Selina down, her wrists and ankles bound to the chair. "Let's see how much you can take," he says, his voice a mix of excitement and malice. The barbed wire digs into Selina's skin as the Joker thrusts the dildos into her, his movements brutal and unrelenting. She tries to scream, but the gag muffles the sound, leaving only her desperate whimpers to fill the room. The Justice League watches in silent rage, their eyes never leaving Selina's face. They've seen her in pain before, but this is different. This is personal, and it's tearing them apart. Oracle's fingers fly across her keyboard, searching for a clue, any clue that might lead them to Selina. But the Joker's tech is too sophisticated. He's covered his tracks too well. The Joker's laughter reaches a crescendo as Selina's body convulses with pain. "You're so beautiful when you scream," he says, his voice a sadistic purr. The next hour, he rapes her again, this time with a pair of sissors, the cold metal cutting into her already torn flesh. Her eyes are wide with terror, her body trembling. And then...he opens them...inside her. Dear god. "Oh my god," Alfred whispers, unable to contain his horror. Diana starts to retch. Rosa's hand covers her mouth, tears streaming down her face. Superman starts to cry, uncontrollably. Even Oliver, who has seen more than his fair share of pain, looks like he might break. The room is a whirlwind of emotions, but one thing is clear: they have to find Selina. They can't let her suffer like this anymore. The Joker's face fills the screen, A knife in hand, "want a suviner?" He reaches towards Selina, his hand hovering over her ring finger....then cuts it off. SUMMARY^1: In a new round of sadistic games, the Joker uses glow sticks and barbed wire-covered dildos to further torture Selina. Despite the Justice League's agony at witnessing this, their efforts to locate her remain futile due to the Joker's advanced technology. The traumatic event of Selina's ring finger being severed by the Joker escalates the urgency of their mission. Each member of the League reacts differently to the horror, with some succumbing to tears and others to anger, yet they remain united in their desperation to save her. SUMMARY^2: Selina's hope is shattered by the Joker's claim of Bruce moving on with Diana, which deepens her despair. Despite her feigned weakness, the Joker remains in control, continuing his emotional and physical abuse. The Justice League remains unable to locate her due to his sophisticated technology, their unity tested by the harrowing events. SUMMARY^3: Over a year, Selina's condition worsens, with the Joker pushing her to near-death and introducing Bane into her torment. Rosa's tragic miscarriage adds to the group's pain. Despite Oracle's efforts, Selina is not found, and the Joker sends taunting videos. The Justice League's unity is tested by their inability to rescue Selina. In a brief moment of strength, Selina fights back, offering a glimpse of hope. However, the Joker's psychological manipulation about Bruce and Diana devastates her. The Joker maintains control with advanced technology, obscuring Selina's location and exacerbating the League's distress. SUMMARY^4: In their early 20s, Selina is kidnapped by the Joker after leaving for an errand, prompting Bruce to gather the Justice League for a rescue. Despite their efforts, including Oracle's intel and a failed attempt at the amusement park, Selina remains missing. Over a year of torment and mental manipulation, Selina endures near-death experiences and the introduction of Bane, while the Joker sends taunts. Rosa faces a personal tragedy of miscarriage. The Joker's use of technology keeps Selina's location hidden, and his manipulations about Bruce and Diana further break her spirit. The camera zooms in on Selina's hand, the ring finger gone, and a spurt of blood shooting out like a macabre fountain. The Joker holds up the bloody digit, the ring still attached, and laughs maniacally. "Here's a little something to remember me by," he says, tossing it into the camera. The feed cuts out, leaving them all in shocked silence. Bruce's eyes are full of unshed tears, his fists trembling with rage. "That's it," he says, his voice low and dangerous. "I'm going to kill him." The team exchanges worried glances. They know Bruce isn't in the right state of mind to go after the Joker alone, but his pain is palpable. They can't argue with his need for vengeance. Oracle, her voice calm despite the horror, speaks up. "We still dont have a location." SUMMARY^1: Selina's traumatic mutilation is broadcasted to the Justice League, intensifying their collective anguish. Despite the clear danger of the Joker's taunts pushing Bruce to the edge of his sanity, Oracle remains focused on the mission, reminding the group that Selina's location remains unknown. The tension in the room is thick as they confront the reality of Selina's suffering and the urgency of their rescue effort. Bruce turns to her, his eyes burning with anger. "Then we find one," he says, his voice a growl. "We're going to tear this city apart until we do." The Justice League members nod in unison. They know that Bruce's rage is their best weapon right now. They'll use it to fuel their search, to find Selina. They split up, each one taking a sector of Gotham to scour for any trace of the Joker's hideout. The streets are eerily quiet as they search, the usual cries for help silenced by the fear of what's happening beneath the city's surface. The tension is unbearable, the air thick with anticipation and dread. Each corner turned, each shadow searched could reveal Selina's location, or it could be another dead end. Days turn into nights, and the feeds keep coming. Each one more horrifying than the last. Selina's spirit seems to be fading with each new torture, but she stops begging for him to kill her, or to beging for him to stop. Her eyes are hollow, her body a canvas of bruises and scars. Yet, she endures, She no longer belives that anyone will come for her, or that anyone loves her. Bruce's voice, strained with emotion, breaks the silence. "We will," he says, his fists clenched so tight his knuckles threaten to pop. "We won't stop until we find you, Selina." The team nods solemnly, each one vowing silently to find her, to bring her home. But they don't. Soon the Joker grows bored of her normal torments, so he decides to play a game called surgeon. SUMMARY^1: Despite Selina's worsening condition and the emotional toll of the Joker's feeds, the Justice League is resolute in their mission. They divide Gotham into search sectors, driven by Bruce's unbridled rage and determination. Yet, Selina's hope diminishes with each passing day, leading the Joker to introduce a new game: 'Surgeon'. The League's collective commitment remains strong as they continue their desperate hunt for any sign of Selina. The feed comes back online, and Selina is laid out on a makeshift operating table, the Joker in a blood-spattered apron, a scalpel in his hand. He hums a nursery rhyme as he makes the first incision, in her leg, to the point of seeing her bone...then he crushes it. The room is filled with the sickening sound of bone breaking, Selina's muffled screams, and the Joker's laughter. "Let's see if we can fix this," he says, his eyes gleaming with madness. Bruce watches, his fists clenched so tight his knuckles have turned white. The others look away, unable to bear the sight of Selina's suffering. But he can't. He won't. He has to see this through. He has to find her. Suddenly Oracle just stops. "I can't do this." She says. Bruce turns to her, his eyes filled with rage and pain. "We have to," he says through gritted teeth. "We can't-" "No Bat's I can't. I'm going home. I haven't been sleeping, as if I would be able too but still." Bruce nods understandingly. "Take some time," he says, his voice strained. "We'll find her." Oracle nods and leaves the room, her shoulders slumped with defeat. The feed changes again, Selina's cries of pain filling the Batcave once more. The Joker has moved on to her abdomen, his hands slick with her blood. "It's a beautiful art, isn't it?" he says, his voice a manic giggle. "The human body is so...fragile." SUMMARY^1: The Joker's 'Surgeon' game begins, sending a wave of horror through the Justice League as they watch Selina's agonizing torment. Oracle reaches her breaking point, unable to continue watching, and leaves the room. Despite their individual struggles, Bruce remains steadfast in his resolve to find Selina, acknowledging Oracle's need for rest and promising they will not give up the search. The team's dynamic changes as they are confronted with Selina's worsening condition and the Joker's sadistic enjoyment. SUMMARY^2: The Joker's games continue with 'Surgeon', pushing Selina and the Justice League to their limits. Oracle, overwhelmed by the horror, steps away, while Bruce's anger fuels his determination to find Selina. The team's cohesion is tested, but their commitment to the rescue remains unwavering. The Justice League watches, each member's rage growing by the second. They can't just stand by and do nothing. They have to find Selina before it's too late. Barry, unable to take it any longer, turns to Bruce. "We can't just sit here and wait for him to kill her," he says, his voice shaking. "We have to do something!" Rosa nods, her eyes red with unshed tears. "We need to get her out of there," she says, her voice firm. "Now." Bruce's eyes never leave the screen. "We're running out of time," he says, his voice a low growl. "We need a plan. Something that'll get us to her without playing into his hands." Derek agrees. "We can't let him win," he says, his jaw set. "We have to find a way to beat him at his own game." Diana, her eyes steely, speaks up. "We need to get into his head," she says. "We know he enjoys the chaos, the fear. We need to find a way to turn that against him." The room buzzes with tension as they brainstorm, trying to outthink the madness that is the Joker. They know that Selina's life hangs by a thread, and every second counts. Soon The Joker gets bored "Well Kitty I think our playtime has come to an end. I'll just leave you here....to die. While I go on the run." And he leaves the feed on live while he leaves. Selina lays on the metal floor in her own blood, shaking. SUMMARY^1: The Justice League, pushed to their limits by Selina's torture, decides they must act immediately. They brainstorm a plan to outsmart the Joker, recognizing the urgency of the situation. Diana suggests turning his love for chaos against him. The Joker, growing bored with Selina's pain, abandons her to die in his hideout, leaving the feed live. This discovery fuels their desperation as they watch Selina's life deteriorate in real-time, adding a new layer of urgency to their rescue mission. The room goes quiet as they watch Selina struggle to breathe, the Joker's laughter echoing in the background. They know they're running out of options, and time is slipping through their fingers like sand. Buce watches the screen the entire day, refusing to leave Selina's side, not even for a second. The others take turns, bringing him food and water, but he barely acknowledges them. His mind is consumed with rage, with the need to find her. 2 days pass, and suddenly Selina takes a trembling gasp for air before she goes still. Nobody says a word as the reality of the situation hits them like a ton of bricks. Selina is gone. The Joker has won. Rosa collapses to the floor, sobbing. Derek wraps his arms around her, his own eyes wet with tears. Superman's fists clench so hard that the floor beneath them cracks. Alfred walks out of the room, unable to bear the sight any longer. Oliver drops his bow, his hands shaking. Nightwing and Redhood turn away crying. Even Harley, whose heart is as cold as ice, looks like she might break down. But Bruce is hurt worst of all, he falls to his knees, his head in his hands. "No," he whispers, his voice breaking. "No, no, no. Please, Selina." The room is a tomb, the only sound the soft beeping of the monitors and the occasional sniffle from the others. They've lost one of their own, and there's nothing they can do to change that. Suddenly Oracle burst through the doors exicited, so excited, it is almost innapropriate. "Hey Bats I've gota----whats wrong?" Bruce looks up at her, his eyes red and swollen. "We're too late," he says, his voice barely a whisper. "He killed her." Oracle's face falls, her heart racing. "No," she says, rushing to the screen. "No, no, no." But it's true. Selina's lifeless body lies on the cold, metal floor, her eyes staring at nothing. The room is a mix of emotions: grief, anger, disbelief. But one thing is clear: they need to find the Joker and make him pay for what he's done. "I was going to say I' have a location....A arena in the middle of the dessert in Las Vegas." She mummurs. SUMMARY^1: After two days of watching Selina's torment, the Justice League is devastated when they believe she has succumbed to her injuries. The room is filled with grief and despair as they process the loss of a team member. Just as they reach their darkest moment, Oracle returns with a potential location for Selina, an arena in the Las Vegas desert. This glimmer of hope pierces the silence and drives the group to refocus their efforts on capturing the Joker and avenging Selina's death, their emotions now a tumultuous mix of anger and determination. SUMMARY^2: The Justice League, desperate and grief-stricken by Selina's apparent death, refocuses on capturing the Joker and avenging her. Oracle provides a new location lead: an abandoned arena in the Las Vegas desert. The team's sorrow turns into a fiery resolve to bring the Joker to justice. Bruce's head snaps up, hope flickering in his eyes. "What?" "It's where he's been broadcasting from," Oracle explains, her voice shaky. "I found a pattern in the feeds, a glitch that led me to it." The Justice League exchanges determined looks. They're going to get Selina back, even if it's just to bring her justice. "We leave now then." Bruce growls donning his bat suit, his eyes never leaving Selina's lifeless body on the screen. The team moves quickly, each one feeling a newfound urgency. They've lost so much time, so much hope, but maybe, just maybe, they can still bring Selina's body home. They fly to Las Vegas in the Bat-Jet, the tension in the cabin thick enough to cut with a knife. No one speaks as they approach the deserted arena, the only light coming from the flickering neon signs that seem to mock them with their vibrant colors. "Harley, Batwoman, Rosa, and Diana with me." Bruce's voice is cold, hard as steel. The team nods, understanding the gravity of the situation. They suit up and prepare for battle. As they arrive at the arena, the silence is deafening, a stark contrast to the neon lights that flicker like a macabre dance of death. They sneak in, shadows in the night, their hearts pounding in unison with the echo of Selina's last moments. The place is a maze of twisted metal and abandoned props, a testament to the Joker's deranged sense of humor. The stench of decay fills the air, a grim reminder of what they might find. SUMMARY^1: Oracle reveals Selina's location, a Las Vegas arena, prompting Bruce to immediately assemble a team for a rescue mission. The group boards the Bat-Jet, the atmosphere thick with tension and hope. Upon arriving, they find the arena a macabre reflection of the Joker's twisted humor, filled with the stench of decay. Their mission is clear: to retrieve Selina's body and seek vengeance, moving swiftly and silently through the maze-like structure, haunted by the echoes of her suffering. They move swiftly, following the trail of blood that leads them deeper into the arena. There. A small lump in a puddle of blood on the floor. Bruce's heart sinks as he recognizes Selina.. Bruce's heart sinks as he recognizes Selina's form, barely recognizable through the blood and grime. He rushes over, ignoring the danger around them. Kneeling beside her, he gently touches her cheek. "Selina," he whispers, his voice cracking. She's cold, too cold.Nothing... "No Sweetheart, no," He whispers, his eyes filling with tears. He looks around the room, desperation and anger swelling within him. He starts to preform CPR, and he hears a sickening crack. She so frial, he broke her ribs. The others watch, tears in their eyes, as Bruce refuses to give up. But after minutes of trying, it's clear: Selina is gone. The Joker's sick game has claimed another victim. Bruce's shoulders slump, and he lays his head on Selina's chest, sobbing. "I'm sorry," he says, his voice thick with grief. "I'm so sorry" ~twitch~ Everyone's eyes dart up, hope sparking briefly in their hearts. Selina's chest moves ever so slightly, so faint Bruce doen't see it. "Bruce!" Diana says urgently. "Selina's alive!" Bruce's head snaps up, and he sees it: Selina's chest rising and falling, the barest hint of life. Adrenaline surges through him, and he starts CPR again, more gently this time, whispering to her, begging her to fight. SUMMARY^1: Upon reaching Selina in the arena, Bruce is distraught to find her seemingly lifeless body amidst a pool of blood. Despite his initial despair, a faint sign of life is detected. The team's hope is rekindled, and Bruce continues CPR, desperately trying to revive Selina while the others stand by, holding their breath and offering silent support. The discovery that Selina might still be alive adds a new layer of urgency to their mission, and Bruce's love for her fuels his efforts to save her. SUMMARY^2: Oracle leads the Justice League to Selina's location in a deserted Las Vegas arena, where they find her barely alive amidst the Joker's sadistic setup. Bruce's love and hope drive him to perform CPR, while the rest of the team provides silent support, their mission now to save her at any cost. Her breathing become stable enough for her to be alive but not enough to wake up. Harley Quinn gently removes Selina's gag, her eyes filled with a mix of sadness and anger. "Hold on, Kitty," she murmurs. Selina mumurs something "J---i,mmmmm" "Shhh It's okay Baby,"Rosa whispers, tears streaming down her face as she strokes Selina's hair. Bruce, his face a mask of pain, takes Selina's hand in his own. "We're here," he says, his voice thick with emotion. "We're going to get you out of here." Oracle starts to work on Selina's restraints,she has to tug hard, causeing a painfull moan from Selina, and she starts to bleed. "Fuck." Oracle hisses. The Joker's twisted games have left Selina on the brink of death, but she's alive. That's all that matters now. Bruce gently lifts Selina into his arms, his eyes never leaving hers. She's so light, so fragile. He feels every single one of her bruises and cuts, every bone that's been broken, yet shes still beautiful to him. "Your safe, your safe now," he whispers into her ear, as the others move to follow him out. They navigate the labyrinthine arena with Selina's lifeless body as their beacon of hope, her shallow breaths their only guide. The Joker's laughter still echoes in their minds, a taunting reminder of what they've lost. The air outside is a shock to the system, cold and harsh compared to the stale, metallic scent of the arena. Bruce lays Selina down gently on the Bat-Jet's medical bay, his hands shaking. Oracle starts the medical scans, her eyes darting over the screens as the machines whir to life. The extent of Selina's injuries is overwhelming, but she remains focused, her fingers flying over the controls. Suddenly Selinas heart stops. "W-what the hell?" Oracle stammers, her panic palpable. Bruce takes over, his hands steady and sure as he performs CPR. Each compression feels like it's breaking his heart all over again, but he won't let Selina go without a fight. Finally, Selina's chest jumps, and the monitor beeps steadily. Her pulse is weak, but it's there. "Breathe, Selina," he murmurs, his voice hoarse. "Just breathe." Then it stops again. He lifts her head and tilts it back, pressing his lips to hers, breathing life into her. Her chest rises and falls with each breath he gives her, a rhythm that matches the beating of his own heart. The team watches, hope and fear warring on their faces as they wait for Selina to wake up. But she doesn't. Not yet. Oracle starts to work, her hands shaking as she tries to stabilize Selina. The others stand by, ready to help, but there's nothing they can do but wait and hope. She starts bleeding from her mouth. "We need to get her to the Watchtower, now," Bruce says, his voice firm. They take off, the Bat-Jet slicing through the night sky like a bat out of hell, racing against time. As they fly, Selina's condition worsens. Her breathing becomes erratic, and the blood doesn't stop flowing. Bruce's grip on her tightens, his eyes never leaving her face. "Oracle whats happeneing to her?" SUMMARY^1: Selina is found barely alive in the arena, her injuries severe. Despite their grief and anger, the team acts swiftly, with Harley and Rosa comforting Selina while Oracle works to free her. Bruce, carrying her, leads them out, but Selina's condition remains critical. In the medical bay of the Bat-Jet, Selina's heart stops, only to restart with Bruce's CPR and a kiss of life. Oracle insists on immediate transport to the Watchtower for advanced care. The race against time continues as Selina's condition fluctuates, and the team anxiously awaits her recovery while the Joker's taunts linger in their minds. Oracle's eyes are glued to the monitors, her fingers moving rapidly. "She's in shock, her organs are failing," she says, her voice tight with anxiety. Selina's body jerks and convulses in Bruce's arms as she fights for air. "Come on Kitten," He mummurs, pressing his lips to her forehead, "Stay with me." But Selina's heart stops again. Bruce's world goes white with rage and fear. Oracle takes over, delivering a shock to Selina's heart with the defibrillator. The jolt sends Selina's body arching off the gurney, and the monitor shows not a flicker of life. Bruce's breath catches in his throat, his eyes never leaving Selina's face. "Again," he orders through gritted teeth, his voice laced with desperation. Oracle nods, her own fear barely concealed. She charges the paddles and delivers another shock. Selina's body jolts, but the monitor remains flat. "We're losing her, Bruce," she says, her voice trembling. Bruce's eyes are filled with a mix of anger and desperation. He can't lose Selina, not now, not after all she's been through. He takes the paddles from Oracle, his grip tightening around them. "One more time," he says, his voice a low growl. The room holds its breath as Bruce places the paddles on Selina's chest and delivers the shock himself. The smell of burning flesh fills the cabin, making everyone flinch, but still nothing. "No," he whispers, his voice barely audible. He does it again, his eyes never leaving hers. nothing.... SUMMARY^1: Selina's critical condition persists on the flight to the Watchtower, with her heart stopping multiple times. Despite the team's frantic efforts, she remains unresponsive. Bruce takes charge, delivering shocks himself in a desperate attempt to revive her. Each failed attempt deepens the dread in the cabin, as they all fear Selina may not survive the Joker's torment. Oracle's voice cracks with urgency, and Bruce's determination is palpable, but Selina's condition does not improve. The once hopeful escape has turned into a grim race to save Selina's life. SUMMARY^2: The Justice League finds Selina critically injured in the Las Vegas arena and rushes her to the Watchtower for medical care. Despite Bruce's persistent CPR and the team's support, Selina's condition remains dire, with her heart stopping and restarting multiple times during the tense flight. SUMMARY^3: The Joker's sadistic games with Selina reach new heights, pushing the Justice League to the brink of collapse. Oracle, emotionally overwhelmed, steps down. The team remains committed to rescuing Selina, despite their grief. Using a new lead, they locate Selina in a deserted Las Vegas arena, where she is barely alive. The League, driven by hope and anger, works to save her, with Bruce performing CPR during a tense evacuation to the Watchtower for medical treatment. Selina's condition is critical, her heart stopping and starting multiple times, reflecting the gravity of the situation. Bruce slams the paddles down again, the sound of electricity crackling through the air. This time, Selina's chest jumps and the flatline on the monitor morphs into a wobbly wave. It's faint, but it's there. A pulse. A sign of life. "Selina," he whispers, his voice thick with emotion. "You're not leaving me." Her eyelids flutter, but she doesn't open them. He can see the pain etched into every line of her face, the result of months of torture. Superman takes the controls, his own eyes wet, as the Bat-Jet streaks through the night, the wind outside screaming past them like a mournful ghost. They arrive at the Watchtower, and the medical bay doors open to reveal a team of doctors and nurses, all in League uniforms, ready to help. They rush Selina out of the jet, and Bruce follows closely behind, his heart in his throat. He watches as they work tirelessly to save her, each movement precise and urgent. Days turn into weeks as Selina fights for her life. Bruce never leaves her side, holding her hand, whispering to her, willing her to come back to him. The rest of the Justice League visits, offering their support, their own grief a constant undercurrent in their interactions. One night, Selina's hand twitches in his grasp. Bruce's heart leaps, and he calls for the doctor on duty. They rush in, checking her vitals, and after a tense moment, confirm that she's regained consciousness. Her eyes flutter open, and she looks up at him, a mix of fear and confusion clouding her gaze. "jlj---" SUMMARY^1: Selina finally shows a glimmer of life with a pulse appearing on the monitor. The team's hope is rekindled as they rush her to the Watchtower's medical bay. For weeks, Bruce remains steadfast at her side, refusing to leave. The Justice League supports him in shifts. One pivotal moment comes when Selina regains consciousness, her hand moving in his grip. Bruce calls for the doctor, and they confirm she's alive. Selina's eyes open, revealing a turmoil of fear and confusion, and she attempts to speak, offering a hopeful sign of recovery amidst the tragedy. "It's okay, it's me," Bruce soothes, his voice cracking. "You're safe." Selina's eyes focus on him, and she screams. The sound pierces the air, a raw wail of agony that makes everyone's skin crawl. Bruce's heart feels like it's being ripped out of his chest, but he doesn't move, just holds her hand tighter. "Selina," he says, his voice steady despite the turmoil inside him. "It's Bruce. You're safe now." But she doesn't seem to recognize him, her eyes darting around the room in a panic. Rosa steps forward, her own eyes brimming with tears. "It's okay, Sweetheart-" Selina's scream cuts her off, and she starts to thrash, trying to pull away from everyone. The medical staff moves in, trying to calm her down, but she's too far gone. "No, no, no," she sobs, her voice hoarse from months of abuse. "Please, no more." Bruce's heart shatters into a million pieces as he watches Selina relive her trauma. He's powerless to help her now, just like he was when he couldn't save her from the Joker. "Don't give her aany sedative's." Oracles instructs the doctor. The doctor nods, and they step back, giving Selina space. Selina continues to scream, her eyes wild with terror, not recognizing the faces around her. Bruce feels his world crumbling around him, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles are white. He's failed her, failed to protect her from this monster. "Selina, it's me," he repeats, his voice strained. "Bruce." SUMMARY^1: Selina's initial moments of consciousness are fraught with fear and pain as she screams in terror, not recognizing her surroundings or Bruce. Despite everyone's efforts to comfort her, her trauma is too intense, and she resists their touch. Oracle advises against sedatives, and the medical staff respects Selina's need for space. Bruce is devastated, feeling guilty and powerless as he witnesses Selina's anguish, a stark reminder of his inability to protect her from the Joker's wrath. Her distress is a heartbreaking reflection of the psychological torment she has suffered. SUMMARY^2: Selina's condition stabilizes at the Watchtower, with Bruce at her side. Her eventual regaining of consciousness brings moments of hope, but her traumatized state leads to fear and confusion, causing her to react violently to her surroundings and those trying to comfort her, highlighting the deep psychological wounds the Joker has inflicted. Selina still doesn't seem to regocnise him, but her screams die down to whimpers. She's exhausted, her body too weak to fight anymore. The doctors move in, gently restraining her, their eyes filled with compassion and professional detachment. Bruce steps back, watching as they work, feeling like he's lost her all over again. The Joker's games have left her broken, a shell of the woman he loves. He turns away, unable to bear the sight of her in so much pain. Oracle moves to his side, her eyes filled with tears she refuses to shed. "We'll get him, Bat's," she says, her voice firm. "We'll make him pay for this." Bruce nods, his jaw clenched. "We will," he murmurs. "But first, we have to get Selina through this." The days pass in a blur of medical procedures and painful rehabilitation. Selina's body is a map of agony, each scar and bruise a silent scream of the horror she's endured. Rosa comes in to see Selina every day, her heart breaking anew with each visit. But the very moment she touches Selina's hand, Selina starts to scream again. Oracles decides to see something, she touches Selina's leg gently. Selina's eyes flash with fear and before she screams Oracle tells a doctor omething, the doctor nods. Oracle holds up a glowstick, one of the very things the oker raped her with. Selina's reaction is immediate, her body going rigid as she tries to pull away. "No," she whispers, her voice barely audible. "No, please." "No sedative." Oracle whispers to the doctor. SUMMARY^1: The medical staff carefully attend to Selina, whose traumatized state causes her to react violently to their touch. Bruce, overwhelmed with guilt, watches from afar. Oracle remains by Selina's side, her determination to capture the Joker unwavering. Upon noticing Selina's reaction to the glowstick, Oracle orders no sedatives. This clue into Selina's trauma indicates that the Joker used such an innocuous object as a tool of rape and terror. The Justice League's commitment to Selina's recovery and the promise of vengeance against the Joker is stronger than ever, despite the emotional turmoil each member faces. Oracle sighs heavily, her heart breaking for Selina. "It's a trigger," she tells Bruce, her voice low and sad. "Anything that reminds her of him sets her off.I think-" Before she can finish her sentence, Selina's eyes snap to her, and she starts to scream again, her body convulsing against the restraint. "No, no, no!" Oracle quickly drops the glowstick, and the room falls silent, except for Selina's muffled sobs. The doctor nods solemnly, understanding the gravity of the situation. "We'll have to be careful," he says. "We're dealing with severe PTSD." Bruce nods, his jaw set. He's seen this before, but never in someone he loves so much. He sits by Selina's side, stroking her hair gently, trying to soothe her. "It's okay," he whispers. "You're safe. We're going to get through this." Oracle notices something about Selinas eyes, and shines a light in them. "Selina Sweetheart can you look at me?" Selina's eyes dart around the room, and she flinches when the light hits them. Oracle holds up 3 fingers. "How many fingers am I holding up?" Selinas hand shakes as she reaches up to touch Oracles fingers "D-Dos?" Oracle shakes her head sadly, and whispers to Rosa "She's speaking spainish. But I don't think she can see us clearly." "What do you mean?" "I mean, she's in a state of severe trauma, her mind might be trying to protect her by switching languages, and her vision could be impaired from the torture, I don't know." Oracle's voice is filled with concern. SUMMARY^1: Selina's PTSD manifests in severe reactions to stimuli associated with the Joker, such as the glowstick. The doctor confirms her condition and suggests extreme care in treatment. Oracle and Bruce work to calm Selina, who begins to speak in Spanish and exhibits potential vision impairment, likely due to the trauma she faced. The complexity of Selina's recovery becomes clear, as her mind attempts to shield her from the horror of her ordeal through disassociative language and altered perceptions. The Justice League's challenge is no longer just finding her but helping her heal from deep psychological wounds. SUMMARY^2: Selina's traumatized responses to stimuli reveal the extent of her psychological torment, and the Justice League is informed of her condition by the doctor. Her use of Spanish and potential vision impairment are understood as defensive mechanisms. The group's focus shifts to her mental and emotional healing, emphasizing the depth of her recovery challenge. The doctor nods and starts to check Selina's eyes with a pen light. "Selina, can you follow the light for me?" But Selina's eyes are vacant, staring through them rather than at them. Her breathing is shallow, and her grip on reality seems tenuous. Bruce squeezes her hand. "You're okay," he whispers, his voice a balm to her frayed nerves. "You're safe." The doctor frowns, making some notes. "We need to get her into therapy as soon as she's stable." "She can't....." Oracle mummurs looking into Selinas mouth "She temporairily mute" Bruce's stomach drops. "What? Why?" Oracle nods grimly. "The Joker did something to her vocal cords. She can't scream or talk anymore without causing herself pain." Selina's eyes are wide with fear, and she starts to shake her head, trying to convey something. "It's okay, Selina," Bruce whispers, his voice breaking. "We're going to f--" Selina's eyes widen, and she shakes her head frantically.The she starts struggling to breathe, her chest heaving. Then she spits up her own blood. "Oracle whats happening?" Bruce asks. Oracle's eyes never leave Selina's monitors. "Her body is shutting down," she says, her voice trembling. "We need to get her to surgery." SUMMARY^1: The doctor identifies Selina's traumatic state and recommends immediate therapy. However, Oracle discovers Selina is temporarily mute due to the Joker's damage to her vocal cords. This revelation causes Selina to panic, leading to her body shutting down. Her desperate state prompts the doctor to order emergency surgery, highlighting the severity of her condition and the urgency of her care. The text underscores the depth of Selina's suffering and the dire consequences of the Joker's actions on her physical and psychological health. The medical staff moves with urgency, wheeling Selina out of the room. Bruce follows, his eyes never leaving her. The surgery is a blur of white coats and cold steel, the sound of beeping machines and the frantic whispers of the medical staff. "~~Have you ever seen something so severe?" "~~She should be dead by now~~" "~~What did he do to her?" The questions hang in the air like a thick fog, but Bruce doesn't dare to voice them. He's afraid of the answers. In the waiting room, the Justice League sits in silence. Harley holds a trembling hand over her mouth, her eyes wide with fear. Diana's fists are clenched, her knuckles white. Even Batwoman, usually so stoic, looks on the verge of tears. Only Oracle remains calm, her eyes on the monitors, watching Selina's vital signs with a fierce determination. Selina's heart stops again, and the room is plunged into chaos. Bruce's world narrows to the rhythmic beep of the machines, each one a painful reminder of how close she is to slipping away from him. "No," he says through gritted teeth, his voice a low growl of anguish. "You can't do this to me." The doctor's move swiftly, pushing Bruce aside to work on Selina. They're a blur of action, but all he sees is her still, lifeless body. He feels like he's drowning, the weight of his failure pressing down on him. Oracle's voice cuts through the chaos, sharp and commanding. "Clear!" she says, and the room goes silent. Bruce watches as the doctor administers a shock to Selina's heart. Nothing. SUMMARY^1: Selina is rushed into surgery with Bruce closely following. The Justice League waits anxiously, reflecting the gravity of the situation. Oracle remains composed amidst the chaos, monitoring Selina's condition. Selina's heart stops once more, and the room goes still. Oracle's calmness contrasts with the fear and panic, as she takes charge with medical instructions. The surgery is a stark reminder of the severity of Selina's injuries and the emotional toll it takes on everyone involved, especially Bruce, who feels the weight of his failure to protect her. SUMMARY^2: Selina's trauma is compounded when it's revealed her vocal cords were damaged by the Joker, causing her to become mute and leading to a panic-induced heart failure. An emergency surgery is performed, and the gravity of her condition is underscored, highlighting the emotional toll on the Justice League, particularly Bruce, who feels intense guilt for not protecting her. Oracle's leadership during the crisis exemplifies her strength and professionalism. SUMMARY^3: Selina regains consciousness at the Watchtower but exhibits traumatic responses to her surroundings and caretakers. The doctor informs the League of her psychological state, including muted speech due to damaged vocal cords, which induces a heart failure. An emergency surgery is performed, showcasing Oracle's leadership. The Justice League confronts the reality of Selina's trauma and the complexity of her recovery, especially Bruce, who is consumed by guilt. SUMMARY^4: Oracle overwhelmed, Selina found in a Las Vegas arena on the brink of death. The League saves her, but her traumatic condition shows severe psychological damage, including muted speech. An emergency surgery is performed at the Watchtower, highlighting Oracle's leadership. Selina's recovery is complex and emotionally taxing, particularly for Bruce, who is filled with guilt. Oracle's eyes meet Bruce's, filled with a fierce determination. "Again," she says, and the doctor complies. Selina's body jumps, but the monitor remains silent. The room is tense, each second feeling like an eternity. Bruce's heart races, his mind a tumult of fear and anger. He can't lose Selina. Not after everything they've been through. "-Clear!" Nothing, shes still. The doctor administers another shock, and Selina's body arches off the table. The silence that follows is deafening. "Come on Selina" Rosa mummurs. Then, a faint beep. The line on the monitor wobbles back to life, a weak but steady pulse. The room collectively exhales, and Bruce's eyes fill with tears. She's alive, but it's clear she's not out of the woods yet. The doctor turns to him, his expression grim. "We need to operate immediately," he says. "Her injuries are severe, and we can't guarantee..." SUMMARY^1: Oracle remains in control, ordering additional shocks to Selina's heart. After a tense silence, Selina shows a faint sign of life, but the doctor warns of severe injuries and the urgent need for surgery. The atmosphere is one of fear and hope as everyone is acutely aware of Selina's precarious condition. Despite her survival, the gravity of her situation is not lost on the team, emphasizing the ongoing battle for her recovery. Bruce nods, his throat tight. "Do whatever it takes," he says, his voice firm. "I trust you." The doctor nods and the team springs into action, rushing Selina into the operating room. Bruce and the others are left in the cold, sterile hallway, their emotions a whirlwind of fear and hope. Superman slams his fist into the wall, the sound echoing through the corridor. "We're going to end him," he says through gritted teeth. "We're going to make him pay for this." Oracle nods, her eyes hard. "We will," she agrees. "But first, we save Selina." The hours tick by, each one feeling like an eternity. Bruce paces the floor, his cape billowing behind him like a dark shadow. His thoughts are a jumble of memories: Selina's laughter, her touch, the way she looked at him when she said 'I do'. Finally, the doctor emerges from the surgery, his scrubs splattered with blood. Bruce rushes to him, his heart in his throat. "Is she okay?" The doctor sighs, his expression unreadable. "We've managed to stabilize her," he says. "But she's lost a lot of blood. She's awake.....but her minset is elsewhere. The Selina you once is dead." The words hit Bruce like a sledgehammer. "What do you mean?" he asks, his voice barely above a whisper. The doctor shakes his head. "The trauma she's endured...it's catastrophic. She's lost her voice, and she doesn't seem to recognize anyone. We're not sure if she ever will." Bruce feels like he's been punched in the gut. He leans against the wall for support, his eyes never leaving Selina's unconscious form. Rosa steps forward, her eyes wet with unshed tears. "What can we do?" she asks. The doctor looks at them all, his eyes weary. "Nothing..." SUMMARY^1: The surgery begins with a sense of urgency and determination, as Bruce gives the go-ahead. The doctor informs them that Selina's condition remains critical post-surgery, having lost a significant amount of blood. The trauma has rendered her mute and unable to recognize anyone, suggesting a profound psychological impact. The doctor's prognosis is bleak, leaving the group devastated and questioning Selina's future. This reinforces the gravity of Selina's condition and the depth of the tragedy that has struck the team. Bruce and Diana walk into the room, and Selina is awake staring at the wall. Her eyes are empty, void of the fire and life that once danced within them. Diana swallows hard, the weight of the doctor's words heavy on her heart. She approaches Selina's bedside, her hand reaching out to gently touch Selina's cheek. "Selina," she whispers, her voice filled with pain. "Do you know us?" Selina's eyes flit to Diana, but there's no recognition, only fear. She turns her head away, whimpering. Bruce clenches his fists, his body coiled with rage and despair. "We'll get you through this," he murmurs, his voice hoarse. "I promise." Days stretch into weeks as Selina's physical wounds slowly begin to heal, but the emotional scars run deep. She's withdrawn, often curling into a ball, her eyes vacant, lost in a world of pain no one else can reach. Bruce sits by her side, speaking to her in hushed tones, trying to coax her back to reality. The rest of the Justice League visits when they can, each one offering their support in their own way, but Selina seems trapped in her own personal hell. She often stares at her robotic ring finger where her wedding ring should be, The Joker had chopped off both of her ring fingers. SUMMARY^1: Selina shows no recognition of her friends, including Bruce and Diana, after waking from her coma. Her fear and withdrawal indicate severe emotional trauma. Despite Bruce's constant presence and the Justice League's support, Selina seems trapped in a world of pain, staring at her mutilated hand as a stark reminder of the Joker's cruelty. The text emphasizes Selina's isolation and the League's shared grief and commitment to her recovery. SUMMARY^2: Selina survives surgery but remains mute and unresponsive, not recognizing even her closest friends. The doctor's bleak prognosis underscores the severity of her trauma. Her isolation and the team's grief are palpable as they witness Selina's emotional withdrawal, staring at her injured hand - a symbol of the Joker's cruelty. The gravity of the situation is reinforced, emphasizing the long road ahead for Selina and her supporters. Rosa brings in her favorite flowers, hoping the sweet scent will spark a memory. Harley tells her jokes, hoping to elicit a ghost of a smile. Diana holds her hand, offering silent strength and comfort. But Selina remains unresponsive, trapped in a prison of her own mind. The doctor's words echo in Bruce's thoughts: "The Selina you once knew is dead." BUt he refuses to accept it. Turns out Selina is 10% blind in both eyes, the doctor informs them, another cruel souvenir from the Joker's twisted games. She has severe PTSD, Mental breakdowns,pnick attacks. Rosa try's to get Selina to eat, but she just pushes the food away. Her once fiery spirit seems to have been snuffed out. The only time Selina seems to react is when the Joker's laugh echoes through the room, a recording played by the doctors as part of her therapy to desensitize her to the sound. Bu it only make sher more afriad, and she screams and thrashes around the bed, the pain of his memory all too real. She can't move her left leg, due to the bone being crushed by Bane's boot, and she's lost her hearing in her left ear. Bruce watches her, his heart aching, feeling more helpless than he's ever felt in the face of evil. She's so small. Of corse she was always samll a light, the whole League made fun of her for it...but now she seems so fragile, so breakable. He makes a vow, a promise to himself and to her, that he will never let her down again. He will be her protector, her rock, her everything. But as the days go on, the realization sinks in that Selina may never be the same. The Joker has left his mark, a permanent scar on her soul. The Justice League, once a tight-knit group, starts to fracture under the weight of their failure. Blame is thrown around, accusations made in the heat of despair. Bruce feels the distance growing between them, but he can't focus on that now. Selina's mental state deteriorates further. She's lost in a sea of trauma, and no one can reach her. The doctor's recommend a new therapist, one who specializes in severe PTSD cases. Her name is Dr. Leslie Thompkins, and she's known for her unorthodox methods. Bruce is desperate, willing to try anything, so he brings Selina to her office. The room is dimly lit, the air thick with the scent of incense. Dr. Thompkins is a small, kind-faced woman with a gentle voice. She takes Selina's hand and looks into her eyes, seeing the terror and pain hidden within, The moment she touches her Selina screams and kicks her. SUMMARY^1: Selina's traumatic state continues, with her being mostly unresponsive and exhibiting severe PTSD symptoms. Despite the League's efforts to support her, they struggle with their own feelings of failure. Bruce brings Selina to Dr. Leslie Thompkins, a therapist with a reputation for handling extreme cases. Selina's reaction to the new environment and the doctor highlights her deep trauma, emphasizing the complexity of her recovery. The fractures within the Justice League reflect the broader impact of Selina's ordeal on their dynamics. The doctor's calm demeanor never wavers. "It's okay," she says soothingly. "I'm here to help you." Selina's eyes dart around the room, searching for an escape, her breath coming in ragged gasps. "Bruce," Dr. Thompkins says, her gaze never leaving Selina's. "Could you give us a moment?" Bruce nods, his heart heavy, and steps outside, leaving Selina in the therapist's care. The sessions are a disaster. Selina screams and fights, the Joker's laughter echoing in her mind, driving her further into her nightmare. "Get away from me!" she shrieks, her eyes wild with fear. Dr. Thompkins' voice is firm but gentle. "Selina, it's--" But Selina doesn't hear her. She's back in the arena, the Joker's twisted smile taunting her. Oracle watches the sessions through the one-way glass, her heart breaking for Selina. She's lost so much, and it's clear the road to recovery will be long and painful. The League's frustration and anger boil over. They argue, pointing fingers at each other for their failure to save Selina sooner. Leslie Tompkins try's her best with Selina, but even she's at a loss. Selina fights and even bit her when she tried to get to close. SUMMARY^1: Dr. Thompkins attempts to treat Selina's trauma, but Selina reacts with fear and aggression, unable to differentiate reality from her traumatic memories. Oracle observes the sessions with a heavy heart, recognizing the immensity of Selina's struggle. The Justice League's internal conflict intensifies, with accusations flying as they grapple with their failure to prevent Selina's suffering. The text underscores the challenges Selina faces and the strain on the team's unity. SUMMARY^2: Selina, unresponsive and suffering from severe PTSD, is brought to Dr. Leslie Thompkins. Her fear and aggression in therapy underscore her deep trauma, and the League's internal strife reflects the broader impact of her ordeal on their cohesion. Oracle's observation of Selina's therapy sessions reveals the gravity of her condition and the toll on the team's morale. Bruce can't take it anymore. He storms into the room, scooping Selina into his arms. "It's okay, I got you," he whispers, his voice shaking. "You're safe." Her eyes meet his, and for a brief moment, she seems to recognize him. But the moment passes, and she's lost again, screaming and crying in his arms. The doctor's face is a mask of professional calm, but Bruce can see the sadness in her eyes. "We need to give her time," she says gently. "This is going to be a long journey." One night as Selina cries herself to sleep, she cries out Bruces name. Shocking everyone in the room. They all stare at each other. Could it be a break through? Bruce's eyes fill with hope. "Selina?" he says tentatively, reaching out to touch her. But she pulls away, her eyes wide with fear. Oracle, who had been silently observing from the corner, steps forward. "Let's try something," she says, her voice firm. "Bruce, I need you to trust me." Her eyes are filled with a determination that Bruce recognizes. It's the same look she had when they were trying to track Selina down. He nods, hope flickering in his chest. Oracle leads them to a quiet, secluded part of the Watchtower, far from the prying eyes of the others. "We need to rebuild her trust," she explains. "From the ground up." SUMMARY^1: In a moment of desperation, Bruce interrupts Selina's therapy session, offering comfort but failing to fully break through her fear. Oracle suggests a new approach, aiming to rebuild Selina's shattered trust. This shift in strategy introduces a glimmer of hope amidst the ongoing despair and highlights the gravity of Selina's psychological condition. The Justice League's commitment to Selina's recovery is reaffirmed, despite the overwhelming challenges they face. The next few weeks are a rollercoaster of emotions. Selina has moments of lucidity where she seems to recognize Bruce, but they are fleeting. Most of the time, she's lost in a world of fear and pain, lashing out at anyone who gets too close. But Bruce is persistent, refusing to give up. He spends every waking moment with her, talking to her, holding her, trying to reconnect with the woman he loves. Oracle's plan is simple but effective. They start with basic trust exercises, like feeding Selina with a spoon, or helping her to stand without causing panic. Selina can't walk, her legs were beaten so bad it crushed her spine. She can't talk without causing herself agony. She sometime can't brethe on her own, so Bruce has to help her with a breathing mask and when that doesn't work he just resorts to breating for her. Rosa, Harley, and Diana take turns sitting with Selina, trying to offer comfort in their own way. Even Batwoman, who has always been cold towards Selina, shows a side of compassion that surprises everyone. One night Selina just stops as Rosa is talking to her and mummurs "You were pregant....Wheres your baby?" SUMMARY^1: Selina's recovery progresses with moments of recognition towards Bruce, but she remains entangled in fear and pain. The Justice League, particularly Oracle, adopts a patient, step-by-step approach to rebuild Selina's trust. The text reveals Selina's severe physical injuries, including a damaged spine, and introduces moments of empathy among the team members, particularly Batwoman, indicating a potential shift in dynamics as they collectively support Selina's healing process. Rosa looks down, tears in her eyes. "I had a miscarrige..." "It...s....all my fault." She whipsers letting go of Rosa's hand and hugging herself crying. Rosa moves to comfort her but starts crying herself, she walks out. "It's not your fault Selina" Batwoman says, taking Rosa's place. "None of this is your fault." Selina's eyes are filled with guilt and despair, and she shakes her head vigorously. "She lost her baby becuase of me, becuase she was looking for me..." She cries. Batwoman wipes away a tear. "No, she lost her baby because the Joker is a monster, and she was doing her job." The room is silent except for Selina's sobs, which seem to build as her guilt presses harder on her, to the point she can barely breathe. Batwoman tries to comfort Selina, her voice a gentle whisper in the quiet room. "Selina, you need to understand, none of this is your faul-" "Stop lying, all of this is my fault!" Selina screams, her voice raw and strained. "You wouldn't have lost the baby if I weren't-" Batwoman takes Selina face in her hands, forcing her to look at her. "Listen to me, Selina," she says firmly. "I need you to shut up and listen. What happened to you is not your fault. It's the Joker's doing. And if anyone is to blame for the baby, it's the Joker. You-" "She lost her baby because of me, You all lost something because of me," Selina whispers, her voice barely audible over her sobs. Batwoman's grip tightens, her voice stern. "No, Selina. We lost something because the Joker is a monster. Because he enjoys hurting people. Because he enjoys breaking us apart. Bu-" "Will you just shut up. I know its my fault." Selina's sobs turn into screams, her eyes squeezed shut as if trying to block out the reality. Kate watches as Selina's mental state continues to deteriorate, her heart breaking with each passing second. She knows Selina's words aren't true, but the guilt and trauma are too deep-rooted. SUMMARY^1: Selina's emotional state continues to deteriorate as she blames herself for Rosa's miscarriage, which occurred during the search for her. Despite Batwoman's firm reassurances, Selina is overwhelmed by guilt and trauma. This confrontation underscores Selina's internal struggle and the long-term psychological impact of her ordeal, while also highlighting the supportive role the Justice League plays in her healing process. SUMMARY^2: Bruce's intervention in Selina's therapy fails to fully comfort her, illustrating her severe trauma. Oracle proposes a new approach focusing on trust, which yields a glimmer of hope. Selina's progress includes moments of recognition with Bruce, but she remains fearful and in pain. Her emotional decline is exacerbated by self-blame for Rosa's miscarriage, emphasizing the psychological depth of her trauma. The Justice League's collective commitment to her recovery is highlighted, particularly Batwoman's empathy, signifying a potential shift in team dynamics and their unwavering support for Selina's healing journey. SUMMARY^3: Selina's post-surgery condition is grim, as she remains mute and unresponsive. The severity of her PTSD is evident in her fear and aggression during therapy. Oracle's observation and Batwoman's empathy offer a new approach focusing on trust. Despite moments of recognition with Bruce, Selina is tormented by guilt over Rosa's miscarriage, illustrating the psychological depth of her trauma and the League's collective commitment to her recovery. Days turn into weeks, and the trust exercises continue. But Selina instead of getting better, she slowly withdraws more into herself. The Joker's influence is like a disease, spreading through her mind, leaving doubt and despair in its wake. Bruce is at his wit's end, his own guilt eating away at him like a cancer. He watches as Selina pushes away the food trays, unable to eat, her body growing weaker. They try and try and try, but she just doesn't get better. The therapy sessions with Dr. Thompkins become more frequent and intense. She uses various methods, trying to break through Selina's walls. One session, she brings in a mirror. "Look at yourself, Selina," she says softly. "You're still here." But Selina just screams and throws the mirror against the wall, shattering it into a hundred pieces, the shards reflecting the shattered look in her eyes. The doctor's face is filled with sadness, but she doesn't give up. "We'll try something else," she says, her voice calm despite the chaos. SUMMARY^1: Selina's condition worsens as she withdraws into herself and refuses to eat, while the trust exercises fail to improve her state. Dr. Thompkins' therapy sessions intensify, using various methods to combat the Joker's psychological grip, but Selina's trauma manifests in destructive behavior, exemplified by her reaction to the mirror exercise. The doctor's persistence reflects the ongoing challenge of Selina's recovery and the commitment of her support system. Bruce is outside the room, listening, his heart breaking. He can't stand the thought of Selina being in pain, but he knows he has to let her go through this. He leans against the wall, his head in his hands. "How much more can she take?" he wonders aloud. Batwoman steps out, her eyes red from crying. "We need to do something," she says. "She's fading." Harley try's to busy Selina by giving her a drawing pad, she hasn't talked in weeks. Ever since she found out about Rosas baby she hasn't spoken, she hasn't even been able to look Rosa in the eye. Selina just stares at her prosthetic finger, the cold metal a stark reminder of everything she's lost. The silence in the room is broken only by her ragged breathing, a stark contrast to the chaotic thoughts racing through her mind. Instead Selina covers her ears and starts rocking herself. Alfred gently takes Selinas hands away from her ears. "Master Bruce is worried about you, Miss Selina. He loves you s-" "The Joker said he loves Diana." she mumurs. "He doesn't love me...Nobody does" SUMMARY^1: Selina's withdrawal deepens, causing concern among the Justice League, particularly Bruce and Batwoman. Harley attempts to engage Selina with a drawing pad, but Selina remains fixated on her trauma. Alfred's gentle intervention reveals Selina's distorted beliefs stemming from the Joker's manipulation, suggesting a deepening of her PTSD and a significant challenge in rebuilding her self-worth and relationships. Bruce's eyes widen with horror as he hears Selina's words, and he rushes into the room. "Selina, no," he says, his voice thick with emotion. "You're wrong. I love you. We all love you." Selina's eyes meet his, but there's no warmth, no recognition. Just a cold, dead stare. "You're lying," she whispers. "Everyone's lying." The doctor and Alfred exchange a look of concern. This isn't the first time Selina has talked about the Joker's taunts. It's clear his words have burrowed deep into her psyche, festering like an infection. The League gathers in the conference room, the tension palpable. They know Selina's condition is worsening, and they need to find a way to reach her before it's too late. "We can't just sit here and watch her die," Bruce says, slamming his fist on the table. "We need to get the Joker." "And do what?" Superman asks, his voice strained. SUMMARY^1: Bruce's desperate attempt to reassure Selina of his love is met with accusations, showcasing the depth of her trauma. The Justice League assembles in concern, recognizing the urgency of Selina's deteriorating mental state. Bruce suggests confronting the Joker as a potential solution to her pain, prompting a heated discussion among the team about the ethical implications and practicality of such an action. Superman's skepticism highlights the gravity of the decision. SUMMARY^2: Selina's withdrawal and destructive behavior in therapy exemplify the challenge of her recovery. Dr. Thompkins' methods intensify, but Selina remains trapped in traumatic memories. The Justice League's concern grows, and a potential breakthrough is offered through Harley's attempt at connection. Alfred's intervention reveals Selina's distorted beliefs, and Bruce's proposal to confront the Joker for Selina's sake sparks debate among the team, emphasizing the gravity of their situation and the complexity of their decision-making. Superman's skepticism underscores the serious ethical considerations of their proposed course of action. Wonder Woman interjects, "We need a plan, not just revenge." "We can't just ignore what he's done to her," Batwoman says, her voice hard. "We're not," Flash argues. "We're trying to get her better." "Better?" Harley snaps. "She's broken!" "Yeah but she's still Selina," Nightwing yells. "I'm not saying she's not," Batwoman says, her voice rising. "But we can't let our emotions cloud our judgment." "Our emotions are what make us human," Diana counters. "And Selina is one of us." "So you think that by just sitting around here, playing doctor, we're going to fix her?" Batwoman says, her voice laced with accusation. "We might not be able to bring her back to us,!" Superman yells, "But we can damn sure make sure the Joker never does this to anyone else!" "Well thats to fucking bad, because I can't just sit here and do nothing," Harley says, her voice shaking with rage. "She isn't ever going to get better. So why do we keep pretending?" The room falls silent, the weight of Harley's words hanging in the air. The argument continues, the room a cacophony of anger and fear. Each member of the Justice League has their own idea of how to deal with Selina's condition, each one more desperate than the last. Selina hearing the yelling, gets scared and starts to cry quietly.

While some advocate for justice against the Joker, others emphasize Selina's humanity and the need for a careful, therapeutic approach. The emotional intensity culminates in Harley's outburst, questioning the effectiveness of their current strategies. Selina, overhearing the commotion, is further distressed, emphasizing the delicate nature of her mental state and the urgency of finding a solution. Bruce's eyes flash with anger as he slams his hand down on the table. "We're not going to fix her by fighting each other!" "Maybe we're not the ones who can fix her," Batwoman says, her voice quiet but firm. "But we can sure as hell stop the one who broke her." "But he's already broken her beyond repair?" Aquaman says. Flash jumps to his feet, his fists clenched. "Don't say that about Selina!" "I'm just being realistic, Wally," Batwoman snaps. "We can't change what happened to her, but we can stop him from doing it again." "Realistic?!" Harley screams, her eyes wild. "You think I'm going to sit here and be realistic? The Joker's got her in his head and you wanna talk about being realistic?" Meanwhile Selina is shaking and crying, her breath coming in hitches. SUMMARY^1: The team's heated discussion escalates, with Bruce attempting to refocus the group on Selina's immediate needs.

Bruce's eyes are filled with a mix of anger and desperation as he looks around the room. "We're her family," he says, his voice low and dangerous. "And we will do whatever it takes to save her." "But what if she doesn't want to be saved?" Diana asks, her voice gentle but firm. " "What the hell are you trying to say Diana?" Rosa snaps, her own fear and pain spilling over. "I'm saying we need to consider her wishes," Diana replies calmly, "if she's ever going to get better." "Her wishes?" Harley spits out. "You think she wishes for any of this?" "We don't know what she wishes," Bruce says, his jaw clenched. "Because she can't tell us. But in the most sense..no she doesn't Want this at all." "And who fault is that? Batwoman growls "If maybe you paid more attention to her Bruce, maybe she wouldn't be in this situation." Bruce is quiet. Its true. He had always pushed her away. But he never thought it would come to this. The room falls into a tense silence as each member of the team grapples with their own guilt and fear. Selina's whimpers slowly become relevant to Bruce, he stands up and leaves the room. He couldn't bare to hear his friends argue over her like she was just another mission. He walks into her room, and she looks up at him with those empty eyes. "Are you all mad at me?"

Despite their passionate disagreements on Selina's recovery, Diana advocates for respecting Selina's unspoken wishes.

Bruce's heart breaks into a million pieces. He sits beside her, taking her hand. "No, Selina. We're mad at the Joker, not you." But Selina shakes her head. "No, you're mad because I'm broken. You're all mad because you can't fix me." He lifts her into his arms, cradling her against his chest. "I know Kitten," he whispers back. Their conversation echoes through the silent corridors of the Watchtower, reaching the ears of the still arguing League members. Their words cut through the anger like a knife, silencing the room. One by one, they file out, each lost in their thoughts about Selina and the Joker's never-ending game.

In the conference room, the argument has turned into a shouting match, each hero's voice rising above the others. "We need to capture him," Superman insists. "Make him pay for what he's done." "And what then?" Batwoman asks, her voice cold. "We lock him up again? He'll just escape and do it again." "We can't just let him get away with this," Aquaman argues. "He needs to be stopped." "But how?" The Flash says, his voice quivering with anger. "How do we stop someone who thrives on chaos?" Diana, ever the voice of reason, tries to calm everyone down. "We must focus on Selina," she says firmly. "We cannot allow our anger to cloud our judgment." But the room is filled with a palpable tension, the weight of their collective failure pressing down on them like a leaden blanket. "We're all just sitting here, doing nothing," Harley says, her voice a mix of anger and despair. "While she's up there, suffering." "We're not doing nothing," Bruce says through gritted teeth. "We're trying to help her." The room erupts again, each member shouting over the other, their frustration and helplessness manifesting as accusations and anger. "You don't get it, Bruce," Batwoman says, her voice sharp. "We're not equipped to deal with this kind of trauma. We're not therapists." "Then what are we?" Superman asks, his fists clenched. "We can't just stand by while she's in pain." SUMMARY^1: The Justice League's impassioned debate continues, with Superman advocating for capturing the Joker and making him pay for his crimes against Selina. However, Batwoman's practical perspective points out the futility of incarceration for someone like the Joker. Diana calls for focusing on Selina's well-being, but the League's collective anger and helplessness boil over.

"We're her family," Diana says, her voice a balm to the harsh tones. "And as her family, we need to support her through this." "How?" Aquaman demands. "We can't even get her to eat, let alone breathe without pain." "That's not our fault," Nightwing says, his voice filled with pain. "We did everything we could to find her." "But we didn't do enough to keep her safe," Batwoman snaps. "We're supposed to be the Justice League. And we failed her." "Maybe the only reason we failed her is because we didn't have her back," Harley says, her voice low. "Maybe we're too busy playing hero to each other that we forgot to be a team for Selina." "We were doing our jobs," Superman says, his voice strained. "We didn't know the Joker was going to do this." "Well, we know now," Flash says, his voice cracking. The argument dissolves into a tense silence, each member of the League aware of their own failings. They're all right, and yet they're all wrong. The Joker had played them all, turning their strengths into weaknesses and their love for Selina into a weapon against her. Bruce looks around the table, his eyes lingering on each of his friends. They're all hurting, all feeling the same guilt and anger that he does. "We can't change the past," he says finally. "But we can decide what we do now." The room is still, all eyes on him. He takes a deep breath. "We find him," he says, his voice hard. "And we end this." Batwoman goes to check on Selina, She's sleeping fitfully, her breaths shallow and quick. Batwoman gently brushes a lock of hair out of her face, her eyes filling with tears. Selina softly opens her eyes and sees the tears. She reaches up and wipes them away. "Are you ok?" Selina whispers, her voice barely audible. Batwoman's throat tightens, "No, I'm not. We're all worried about you." Selina's eyes flicker with fear. "You shouldn't be, youv'e got better things to be doing." Batwoman shakes her head. "No Selina, we're all in this together." "But I'm the reason you're all so upset," Selina says, her voice cracking. "Is Rosa okay?" Batwoman nods. "Physically, yes. Emotionally... she's a mess. We all are." Selina's eyes fill with guilt. "I'm sorry," she whispers. "Don't apologize," Batwoman says, her voice stern. "This isn't your fault. It's the Joker's." "But-" SUMMARY^1: Diana's reminder of their familial bond with Selina shifts the conversation, acknowledging their shared failure to prevent Selina's trauma.

"The trauma is too deep. She's lost so much weight, and her heart...it can't take much more." "What do you mean?" "She's dying, Kate," the doctor says, her voice soft. "We need to prepare for the worst." "I'm sorry...what?" Rosa asks, her face pale. "We can't just sit here and do nothing," Batwoman says, her voice hard. "We have to find a way to help her." "We've tried everything," the doctor says, her voice filled with sadness. "But her mind is...it's just not responding." "But wasn't she getting better?" Batwoman asks. The doctor sighs heavily. "For a while, yes. But the Joker's psychological torment was too much. She's lost all sense of self. And her rectum being raped by so many differnt toools, is causing her pain she can't even express. She's also still open down there, So, she's in constant pain." "What can we do?" Bruce asks, his voice hoarse. The doctor looks at him sympathetically. "We can keep her comfortable, but...Bruce, she's not going to get better."

Superman stands up, his eyes flashing. "We can't just let her die. We can't." "There is nothing else you can do," the doctor insists. "We need to accept-" Rosa slams her fist into the wall "NO! You can just sit there and say that like it's okay! She's my sister." "I know and I'm sorry but-" "Don't you dare say you're sorry," Rosa snaps. "You don't know what she went through. You weren't there." The room is a tornado of emotions, each one swirling and colliding. The doctor tries to speak again, but she's drowned out by the storm of voices. The Flash paces the floor, his heart racing as he tries to come up with a plan. "We need to get him," he says, his voice tight. "We need to make him pay for this." "But what good will that do?" Diana asks, her voice calm but her eyes filled with fire. "Selina will still be in pain." "It won't fix her," Aquaman says heavily. "But it will stop him from hurting anyone else."

"But we can be here for her now." "But what about justice?" Superman demands. "Justice will come," Diana says, her eyes flashing. "But right now, we need to heal." "Heal?" Aquaman scoffs. "How can she heal when she's trapped in that hell?".....shes dying." The doctor sighs, her expression weary. "The Joker's done more than just hurt her body," she says. "He's destroyed her spirit." The room falls silent, each member of the Justice League lost in their own thoughts. Selina moans in pain and Bruce's grip tightens around her hand.

"You don't know that," Nightwing says, his voice full of accusation. "We can't just let her go," Flash insists, his eyes glossy with unshed tears. Selina leans her head close to Bruce and whispers "So, I'm going to die?" Bruce's eyes fill with tears, and he squeezes her hand. He can't answer. "So...yes?" The room goes silent, and Bruce can't look at her. He can't bear to see the acceptance in her eyes. The doctor clears her throat. "We can manage her pain, and we can be here for her. That's all we can do.Unless her body and mind decides to heal. But that doesn't seen like an option." "But we can't just sit here and watch her die," Batwoman insists, her voice breaking. "We're the Justice League. We're supposed to be her protectors." The doctor's eyes are filled with sadness. "I know it's hard to accept, but sometimes, the most loving thing we can do is to let go." Selina's breaths become shallower, and her grip on Bruce's hand tightens. Bruce's eyes are wet with unshed tears as he looks into Selina's eyes, filled with pain and defeat. "No," he whispers. "We won't let you go." The doctor nods sadly. "We'll keep trying, but she's in a very serious condition." SUMMARY^1: Selina's potential to recover is questioned, with Diana expressing doubt and Harley pushing for action. Selina, aware of her fate, confronts Bruce with the reality of her condition. The doctor reinforces Selina's critical state, advising palliative care over aggressive treatments. Despite the bleak outlook, Batwoman remains determined to save Selina, while Bruce clings to hope, promising not to give up on her. The tension between acceptance and hope, and the heavy emotional burden on the characters, is palpable. The League, drained by the conversation, disperses to their quarters, leaving Bruce and Selina in the quiet of her room. Selina's hand feels cold and fragile in Bruce's grasp, a stark reminder of her deteriorating health. Days pass in a blur of pain management and futile attempts to reconnect with Selina. The League's morale plummets as they grapple with their inability to save her. Their missions feel hollow, a mere shadow of their former purpose. Selina's condition remains critical, her body weak from malnourishment and her mind lost in a labyrinth of fear. Bruce is a constant presence by her side, his love for her a silent vigil that speaks louder than words. One night, as Selina's breathing becomes more labored, Batwoman gently brushes her hair back, tears streaming down her face. "We're not giving up," she whispers fiercely. "We're going to get you through this." Selina just looks at the ceiling. In the weeks that follow, the Justice League's efforts to save Selina grow increasingly desperate. They seek out every possible medical treatment and alternative therapy, but she continues to deteriorate. The once vibrant and fierce Catwoman is now a mere shell of her former self. SUMMARY^1: The Justice League is emotionally exhausted as Selina's condition remains unchanged. Bruce's unwavering presence beside Selina exemplifies his love and hope. Despite their desperate search for a cure, Selina remains unresponsive. The narrative underscores the tragic stasis of Selina's health and the profound impact her suffering has on the team, who struggle to find meaning in their ongoing work while she is in pain. The tension within the Watchtower is palpable. Arguments over strategy and ethics have turned into quiet, painful acknowledgements of their powerlessness. Bruce's eyes never stray far from Selina's room, his guilt a constant companion. As Oracle is checking Selina's vitals one night, she notices a slight change. The heart monitor beeps erratically, and Selina's eyes flicker with a glimmer of consciousness. Oracle calls for Dr. Thompkins, who rushes in, her expression hopeful yet cautious. "What is it?" Bruce asks, his voice strained with fear. "Her vitals are improving," Oracle replies, a hint of amazement in her voice. "It's...it's like she's fighting back." Dr. Thompkins nods, a flicker of hope crossing her face. "It's a good sign, but we can't get our hopes up too high. Her body has been through a lot." "What does this mean?" Rosa asks, her voice trembling. "It means she's not giving up," Batwoman says firmly. "And neither are we." The room falls silent again as they watch Selina, her breathing becoming more regular. For the first time in weeks, there's a collective sense of relief. Days turn into weeks, and Selina's condition stabilizes. Slowly, she begins to respond to her environment, showing signs of understanding and, occasionally, recognition. Her eyes, though haunted, no longer hold the vacant stare of someone lost to the world. One evening, Bruce is alone with Selina when she finally speaks. Her voice is barely a whisper, but it's enough to make his heart soar. "Bruce," she says, her eyes locking onto his. "I'm so sorry." He shakes his head, his voice thick with emotion. "Don't you dare apologize," he whispers. "You're here, and that's all that matters." SUMMARY^1: The Justice League experiences a rare moment of optimism when Selina shows signs of recovery, with improved vitals and brief moments of consciousness. Bruce's persistent presence and the team's collective refusal to give up are emphasized. Selina's first words to Bruce are an apology, highlighting the depth of her trauma and guilt, and his response underscores his love and commitment to her. This small victory provides a glimmer of hope amidst their ongoing struggle to support Selina's recovery. Her hand, so frail, reaches out to touch his face. Bruce's eyes widen with hope, his voice cracking as he whispers, "Selina." Her fingers trace the contours of his jaw, the touch sending a jolt of warmth through him. Her parastetic ring finger brushes his cheek. "Don't cry." she whispers, her voice a mere thread of sound. The doctor rushes back in, her eyes widening at the sight of Selina's awakening. She checks Selina's vitals, confirming the miraculous shift. "It's a breakthrough," she says, her voice shaky. "But she's still critical. We need to tread carefully." The room fills with a mix of relief and anxiety as the doctor explains the next steps in Selina's treatment. They must rebuild her strength gradually, and her mental health is equally as important. Selina's eyes dart around the room, confusion and fear etched on her features. She tries to sit up, but her body is too weak, and she collapses against Bruce's chest. Shaking she looks at Batwoman, her gaze pleading. "Please, tell me nobodys hurt because of me." Batwoman's eyes fill with tears, but she nods. "We're all okay, Selina. " But the fear in Selina's eyes doesn't dissipate. She's been through hell, and she knows that the Joker never plays by the rules. Her mind races with the memories of his sadistic games, and she can't shake the feeling that this is just another one of his twisted ploys. She lets Bruce hold her, his embrace a bastion of safety in a world that's been shattered by the Joker's cruelty. Her body relaxes slightly, comforted by his warmth and the steady beat of his heart. But her mind is a tumult of emotions, a cacophony of doubt and pain. Her fingers tighten on his shirt, and she closes her eyes, trying to drown out the horrors that still echo in her head. "You're safe here," he whispers into her hair, his voice a soothing balm. "We're all here for you." The doctor and the League watch from the doorway, their hearts heavy with the weight of Selina's suffering. They've all been through so much, but Selina's plight is the hardest to bear. Rosa steps forward, her voice trembling. "Can I talk to her?" The doctor nods. "But be gentle," she warns. "Her mind is still very fragile." Rosa nods, her eyes never leaving Selina's. She sits down on the bed, her hand reaching out to take Selina's. "Hey, sis," she says softly. Selina's eyes stay on the ground "Hi." The conversation is strained, filled with unspoken words and the weight of the trauma that hangs between them. Selina's voice is a mere whisper, her spirit broken by the months of torment. Rosa tries to keep the conversation light, talking about the mundane things that used to make Selina smile. But Selina's eyes are vacant, lost in the memories of her torture. "I'm sorry," Selina says suddenly, her voice a mere breath. "I'm so sorry for what happened." Rosa's eyes fill with tears. "It's not your fault," she says fiercely. "Never think that." But Selina's guilt is a living, breathing entity in the room, a shadow that seems to grow larger with each passing moment. Selina lays her head on Bruce's chest, listening to his heartbeat, finding comfort in the steady rhythm. It's a stark contrast to the chaos that still ravages her mind. Days turn into weeks, and Selina's physical recovery progresses, but the mental scars remain. She's plagued by nightmares and flashbacks, the Joker's twisted smile a constant presence in her thoughts. The League rallies around her, each member offering their own brand of support. Harley brings her a tray of food, her eyes filled with a strange mix of sadness and anger. "You need to eat," she says gruffly. "You're too skinny." Selina turns away, the thought of food making her stomach churn. Flash sits by her side, his hand resting on her arm, offering silent comfort as she stares into space. Diana brings her a bouquet of flowers, her face a mask of solemnity. Selina stares at the flowers seemingly interested in them. "Do you like the roses?" Diana asks gently, placing the bouquet on the bedside table. Selina just looks at them, her eyes glazed over. Diana touches Selina's hand, and Selina screams, pulling away. The sudden sound echoes through the room, and the Amazonian flinches, her eyes wide with shock and concern. Diana presses a finger to her lips. "Shhh." The doctor rushes in, assessing Selina's condition quickly. "It's okay, Selina," she says calmly. "You're safe." But Selina's mind is trapped in the nightmare of her past, her body reacting instinctively to any touch. Oracle comes in, her eyes filled with worry. "I'll take over," she says gently. The doctor nods, and the room clears out, leaving Selina with Bruce and Barbara. Barbara sits on the edge of the bed, her voice soothing. "It's okay," she repeats, her tone a gentle coo. "You're safe. We're here." Selina's breaths come in hitches, and she clutches at the blanket, her eyes wild. Oracle realizes something with Selina's eyes, and calls in a doctor. "Sh might be a little blind." She mummurs to the doctor, who nods and grabs a flashlight. The doctor checks Selina's pupils, causing Selina to give startled jerks of pain. "Her retinas are damaged," the doctor says gravely. "It's likely permanent." The room fills with a heavy silence as they process the news. Selina's world just got a whole lot darker. Bruce feels rage boil up inside him, but he forces it down, focusing on Selina. "We'll get you through this," he says firmly. "We're not leaving you." The doctor nods. "We're going to start therapy for your PTSD, and we'll work on your vision. There are options." Selina doesn't even seem to understand the gravity of the situation, lost in a haze of pain and fear. She closes her eyes. Oracle gets her a speacial pair of glasses, designed to help her see. It's a small victory in a sea of despair. The days stretch into weeks, and Selina's mental health doesn't really get better, or worse. It's a stalemate. She doesn't seem to be mentaly present when people ar talking to her, Sometimes only Bruce can get through to her. Bruce, with his unwavering love and patience, is Selina's anchor in the storm of her traumatized psyche. He's with her every moment, holding her hand, whispering reassurances into her ear, willing her to come back to them. The Justice League, though dedicated to their mission of protecting the innocent, can't ignore the gaping hole Selina's absence has left in their hearts. They continue their work, but each victory feels hollow without her. One night, Bruce is sitting by Selina's bedside, her hand in his, when she starts to stir restlessly. Her eyes fly open, and she looks around the room in a panic. "Bruce?" she whispers, her voice hoarse from disuse. "Hey sweetie," Bruce says gently, his thumb stroking the back of Selina's hand. "You're safe." Selina begins to whimper and reaches out for him. Bruce's heart breaks anew as he takes her in his arms, her body trembling with fear. "Its okay Baby." Her grip tightens as she cries into his shoulder, her body shaking with sobs that seem to come from the depths of her soul. "Please, Bruce," she cries. "Please. I'll do anything just make it stop." She's begging him, and it's killing him. Bruce bites back his own tears. " Kitten, your safe. I promise." The doctor comes back in, her face a mask of professional calm. "We need to start her therapy," she says. "It's time." Bruce nods, his jaw clenched. "Do it." Selina's therapy is grueling. She screams, she cries, she fights them, but they don't give up. One day as Harley tries to get Selina to talk, Selina starts crying uncontrollably. "I don't want to." "You don't have to," Harley says, her voice surprisingly gentle. Selina relaxes. "But you can talk to me," Bruce says softly, his voice a balm to her soul. "Whenever you're ready." Selina nods, her breathing evening out. She knows she can trust him. The doctor suggests a new form of therapy, one that involves confronting her fears in a controlled environment. It's a risky gamble, but one that could potentially break through the barriers that have kept Selina trapped in her own mind. The team is hesitant, but they know that drastic measures are needed. Diana, with her own experience in healing from trauma, offers to stand by Selina's side throughout the process. "We're in this together," she says firmly. The therapy sessions begin, and Selina is exposed to simulated scenarios that trigger her traumatic memomories. Each time she faces them, she screams and fights, but with Diana and Bruce's support, she doesn't succumb to the darkness. Its a complete mess. Its an utter fail. She screams and claws at the walls, the fear consuming her. One particularly harrowing session, Selina faces a holographic Joker, his cackle echoing through the room. She's lost in the nightmare, her mind replaying every horror he's ever inflicted on her. Her eyes are wild as she lashes out, but instead of attacking, she curls into a ball, sobbing. Diana moves to stand in front of Selina, blocking her view of the hologram. "Look at me," she says firmly. But Selina isn't listening. She's lost in the nightmare, her body wracked with sobs. DIana takes Selina's face in her hands, forcing her to look up, and Selina squeezes her eyes shut. "Pease" she begs. breaking DIana's heart. "Look at me, Selina," Diana repeats, her voice gentle but insistent. "You're not-" "No!" Selina cries, pushing Diana away. "Get away from me please. I wont do anything, I promise." Instead of thinking this way a way to help her Selina thinks it is a way to punish her. Selina is shaking so badly that Bruce has to hold her down to prevent her from harming herself. Her eyes are wide with terror, and she's gasping for breath as the holographic Joker fades away.Eventually she goes into a panick attack. Bruce gently holds her down. "You're safe, Selina," he repeats, his voice steady and calm. "You're safe." Her eyes are squeezed shut, and she's biting her lip so hard it bleeds. Bruce takes his finger and gently pries her mouth open "Breathe, Kitten. Good Girl" The doctor and the therapist exchange a worried glance. "We need to reevaluate our approach," the therapist says quietly. Diana nods. "We're not helping her by making her relive the trauma," she agrees. "We're just making it worse." Since Selina was raped so cruelly, and so many times, the doctors think that she won't be able to have children. The room is filled with the heavy silence that follows failure. The Justice League, once so united in their quest to save Selina, now find themselves at odds. "We have to capture the Joker," Batman growls. "We can't let him do this to anyone else." "But what about Selina?" Barbara asks, her eyes on her friend. "What will revenge do for her?" "It'll make us feel better," Harley snaps, her own anger and frustration bubbling to the surface. Superman's voice, calm and steady, cuts through the tension. "Our priority is Selina's healing," he says. "We need to focus on that." "But he's out there," Batman argues. "Free to hurt more people." "And we're in here," Batwoman says, her voice strained. "With Selina. That's where we're needed." Their discussion turns heated, each member's voice rising with passion as they argue the merits of justice versus vengeance. The tension in the air is thick, their emotions a tangible force. Flash paces back and forth, his agitation clear. "We can't just sit here," he says, his hands balling into fists. "We have to do something!" Wonder Woman puts a hand on his arm, trying to calm him. "We are," she says firmly. "We're fighting for Selina." But Aquaman's expression is grim. "We've failed her once," he says. "We can't fail her again." Green Lantern's voice is a low growl. "The Joker needs to pay." "But at what cost?" Cyborg asks, his eyes on Selina. "What if we lose her forever?" Their words hang in the air, heavy with the weight of their fears. "We're not giving up on her," Batwoman says, her voice firm. "And we're not giving up on justice." "But what if it's too late?" Harley's voice is a whisper. "What if he's already won?" The room falls silent as they all look to Selina, her fragile form a stark reminder of the Joker's cruel victory. The argument escalates, each member of the Justice League voicing their fears and frustrations. They're all desperate to do something, anything, to ease Selina's pain and bring the Joker to justice. The shouting reaches a crescendo, and then, without warning, it stops. Selina's eyes flutter open with a start, and she looks around the room, disoriented, and scared. She's missed the heated discussion, but she can feel the anger and sadness in the air. She tries to sit up, but is to weak to do so. "Its okay Kitten." Bruce soothes her, stroking her hair as her eyes dart around the room. "You're okay." Her eyes finally land on him, and she relaxes slightly. "Bruce," she whispers, her voice trembling. "You're safe," he repeats, his eyes never leaving hers. Selina takes a deep, shuddering breath, her grip on Bruce tightening. The team exchange concerned looks.
Create my version of this story
Selina Wayne Kyle lay sprawled across the plush couch in the Batcave, her eyes glinting with mischief as she watched Bruce Wayne meticulously organize his gear. His dedication to his alter ego was admirable, she mused, but sometimes she just wanted to mess it all up. The dim lights cast dramatic shadows on Bruce's face, highlighting the sharp lines of his jaw and the intensity in his gaze. She smirked, knowing how much he'd hate it if she interrupted his routine. But Selina was never one to shy away from a challenge. With a playful leap, she landed on the table beside him, her legs swinging gently. "Bruce," she purred, her voice a siren's call in the cavernous space. "stop." He paused, his hand hovering over the utility belt. "What is it, Selina?" Her smile grew more devilish. "I've got a better idea for how we can spend our night." Bruce glanced at her, his eyes lingering on her curved form before meeting her gaze. "What did you have in mind?" Selina leaned closer, her breath warm against his cheek. "How about we ditch the bat and the bird for tonight?" she whispered, her fingers tracing the line of his jaw. "Just be Bruce and Selina." The corners of Bruce's mouth twitched upward. He set down the belt and turned to face her, his hands finding her waist. "You're playing a dangerous game, Mrs. Wayne." Selina's eyes danced with excitement. "Oh, I know," she murmured, her voice low and seductive. "But I'm willing to bet the stakes are worth it.We can just cuddle" SUMMARY^1: Selina interrupts Bruce's gear organization in the Batcave with a mischievous proposal to spend the night together as Bruce and Selina instead of Batman and Catwoman, suggesting they leave their alter-egos behind for a night of intimacy. She leans in close and whispers her intentions, which briefly amuse him before he sets aside his utility belt and agrees, though warily. Selina's playfulness contrasts with the seriousness of their superhero roles. Bruce chuckled, his grip on her waist tightening. "Cuddle, huh?" "Mmhmm," Selina hummed, leaning in to kiss him softly. "Please?" He sighed, amusement and affection warring within him. "Alright," he conceded, "but only if you promise to keep those claws sheathed." Selina giggled, kissing him again before hopping off the table. "Scout's honor," she said, holding up two fingers in a mock salute. Bruce rolled his eyes but couldn't help smiling. "Alright," he said, "but remember, no funny business." Selina feigned innocence, her eyes wide and her smile as sweet as honey. "I promise," she said, taking his hand and leading him away from the gear. They climbed the stairs to the manor, their laughter echoing through the corridors. Bruce had to admit, it was a refreshing change of pace to leave the darkness of Gotham behind for an evening. As they entered the living room, Selina stopped and looked around, her eyes landing on a stack of mail by the door. "Oh, I almost forgot," she said, pulling away from his embrace. "I have to run a quick errand." Bruce's eyebrow raises. "What is it?" he asked, his voice tight. "You know the Mafia business." SHe says, her eyes shimmering with excitement. "It's nothing you can't handle while I'm gone." He nods"Alright, but be careful. " SUMMARY^1: Bruce and Selina share a moment of domesticity in the Batcave, with Selina convincing him to set aside their superhero personas for an intimate night in. Despite his initial resistance, he agrees, but insists on no trouble from her. Their light-hearted exchange is interrupted when Selina remembers a mafia-related errand she needs to run, leaving Bruce with a sense of unease as she departs. Selina disappeared into the night, leaving Bruce with a sense of unease that gnawed at him. He couldn't shake the feeling that something wasn't quite right. Despite his best efforts to focus on his work, he found himself checking the monitors for any signs of trouble. Two hours later, his reLIZED THAT SHE WASN'T BACK SO HE CALLS HER. NOthing. Bruce's heart pounded in his chest as he called Selina's number again and again. Each unanswered ring was a knell, tolling a sense of foreboding he couldn't ignore. He knew her errand was risky, but she was Catwoman – she could handle herself. Or so he thinks. After an hour he traces her phone. The GPS tracker on Selina's phone led him to an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of Gotham. The air was thick with the stench of decay and the distant wail of sirens. His instincts screamed at him as he approached the dilapidated building. The hairs on the back of his neck stood on end as he realized this wasn't just a simple errand gone awry. This was a trap. He finds her ohone, with a Joker card next to it. Back at the Batcave..... "Hey Alfred!" He calls out, his voice tight with fear. "Alert the Justice League." Alfred's eyes widened as he rushed over, noticing the distress in his voice. "What's happened, sir?" Bruce held out Selina's phone, the Joker card glinting in the stark Batcave lights. "It's the Joker. He's got Selina." SUMMARY^1: Bruce's concern grows as Selina fails to return from her errand, prompting him to trace her phone to an abandoned warehouse. Discovering her phone with a Joker card beside it, he deduces it's a trap and immediately calls for Alfred's help to notify the Justice League of Selina's kidnapping. The gravity of the situation escalates as the Joker's involvement becomes clear. SUMMARY^2: Bruce and Selina, married in their 20s, have a playful exchange in the Batcave, where Selina suggests a night off from their superhero personas. Despite his initial skepticism, Bruce agrees. However, when Selina leaves for a mafia-related errand and doesn't return, Bruce discovers her phone at an abandoned warehouse with a Joker card. This grim clue indicates Selina's kidnapping and leads him to alert the Justice League for assistance. Alfred's face grew grim as he took the phone. "We must act quickly, sir. She's been gone for over two hours. Time is of the essence." Suddenly a video feed pops up on his screen. It's Selina, bruised and bound, the Joker's manic laughter echoing in the background. "Look what I've got here, Batsy!" the Joker taunted, his face twisted into a sadistic grin. "Your little kitty has decided to play with the big boys!""Aww I'm flattered you bastard." She grows, trying to hide the fear in her eyes. Bruce's eyes narrowed, rage building within him as he watched Selina's struggle. The video feed was grainy, but it was clear that she had been beaten and was in serious trouble. He could see the raw terror in her eyes, and it was unlike anything he had ever seen from her before. He had to save her. SUMMARY^1: Alfred confirms the severity of the situation when a video of Selina, beaten and bound, appears on Bruce's screen, with the Joker taunting them. Her state of distress is evident, and Bruce's rage and fear for her safety intensifies his resolve to rescue her immediately. The Joker cackled, waving a knife dangerously close to Selina's face. "You should've kept your claws sharper for me, kitty," he sneered. "I'd only use them on someone who deserves it," Selina spat back, her voice strained but defiant. The Joker gently pulls her hair back, revealing the bruises and cuts that marred her once flawless skin. "Oh, I think you'll find that I'm quite deserving," he said, his voice dropping to a sinister whisper. "Oh?" She hisses. "Yeah," he says, leaning closer, "I've got a whole year's worth of surprises for you." The Jusice League soon arvies. "Whats the probem Bats?" Superman asks, his eyes scanning the room. "Selina's been kidnapped," Bruce says through gritted teeth. Wonder Woman's eyes flash with anger. "We'll find her," she says firmly. "We've got to move fast," Bruce says, his mind racing. "The Joker's playing a game, and Selina's his prize." The team nods gravely, each understanding the gravity of the situation. Soon another feed is up, this one clearer and more disturbing. Selina's ....in...another...outfit. Her eyes are filled with a mix of anger and pain as she glares at the camera. "You won't get away with this," she promises, her voice shaking. The Joker's laughter fills the room, chilling everyone to the bone. "Oh, but I will," he says, his voice dripping with malice. "And I'll enjoy every second of it." Se tries to swing her arm but is caught by a sharp pain and screams. The Joker laughs "C'mon Selina, play nice!" Selina scoffs, "You're the one holding the knife, Joker." The Joker's smile widens, revealing his sharpened teeth. "True, true," he says, "but you're the one who's going to play my game." The feed goes dark, leaving Bruce and the Justice League in stunned silence. "We might get answers through her best friend." DIana suggessts. SUMMARY^1: The Joker broadcasts a disturbing video of Selina, prompting the Justice League's arrival. Despite her injuries, Selina remains defiant, which only fuels the Joker's sadism. The video cuts off, leaving the group in a dire situation. Diana suggests interrogating Selina's best friend for information, indicating the urgency of their mission to rescue Selina from the Joker's twisted game. Bruce nods, his jaw clenched. "Harley Quinn" Nightwing stands up "Did you tell her sister?" Bruce's eyes flash with anger. "Not yet," he says. "Alfred could you call Officer Rosa, let her know everything?" (That is Selinas older sister, they are like best friends,) Alfred nodded gravely. "Of course, Master Wayne." "Good," Bruce says, turning to the team. "We're going in, but we need to be smart. The Joker's not just dangerous, he's unpredictable." Superman nods. "Understood. We'll coordinate with the Gotham PD and set up a perimeter." Wonder Woman places a comforting hand on Bruce's shoulder. "We'll find her," she assures him. Bruce nods, trying to keep the fear at bay. "Thank you," he murmurs. An hour later...They get another sickening feed... The video flickers back to life, and Selina is in a different location...a heart shaped arena... her eyes bloodshot and her clothes torn. The Joker is nowhere to be seen, but her bruises are more pronounced, and there's a new look of desperation in her eyes. "Please," she whispers, "help me." Bruce feels his heart drop into his stomach. "We're coming, Selina," he says, though he knows she can't hear him. "We're coming." The Joker appears with a long curved knife, the blade glinting menacingly in the dim light. Selina's eyes widen, and she tries to struggle, but she's too weak. "Now, now, kitty," the Joker croons, "let's not ruin the fun." Bruce watches in horror as the Joker approaches Selina, the knife moving closer to her skin. SUMMARY^1: The Justice League learns Selina is in a heart-shaped arena and her condition has worsened. Bruce is distraught, and Superman suggests involving the Gotham PD for a coordinated approach. As the Joker continues to taunt them, Selina's desperation grows, increasing the urgency of their rescue attempt. The Justice League members exchange grim looks. They know time is running out, and they need to act fast. Superman takes to the sky, using his super hearing to scan the city for any signs of the Joker's hideout. Batman, with his vast knowledge of Gotham's underbelly, starts to piece together possible locations based on the Joker's past patterns. Soon Harley Quinn arvives along with Rosa and Derek Gonzalez, Sisters sister, and her sisters husband. "Why'da call Bats?" Harley sneers, her eyes darting around the room nervously. "Because she's in trouble," Bruce says firmly, not taking his eyes off the screen. "Who?" "The Joker has Selina," Nightwing says, his voice tight with emotion. Harley's expression changes from one of confusion to horror. "What?" she gasps, her hand flying to her mouth. "Where is she?" Rosa, Selina's sister, "Bruce what do you mean shes just gone?" Bruce's fists clench as he watches the feed. "We're tracing the signal now," he says, his voice a low growl. "But he's nowhere to be found" Derek, Rosa's husband, a detective with the Gotham PD, looks grim. "I'll get a team together," he says, pulling out his phone. "We'll check all the known Joker hideouts." Rosa nods, her eyes never leaving the screen. "Whatever it takes," she whispers, her voice thick with fear. Rosa had wanted to tell selina something tonight...she is pregnant. SUMMARY^1: The Justice League strategizes, with Superman using his super hearing to locate Selina. Harley Quinn, Selina's sister Rosa, and her husband Derek arrive and are informed of Selina's dire situation. Bruce is consumed by the urgency of rescuing Selina, while Derek, a detective, offers to mobilize Gotham PD to search known Joker hideouts. Meanwhile, Rosa shares a personal secret, revealing she is pregnant and had wanted to tell Selina tonight. SUMMARY^2: After Selina's kidnapping is confirmed by a taunting video, the Justice League assembles to rescue her. Superman contributes with his super hearing, while Derek and Rosa offer to involve the Gotham PD. The situation is exacerbated by Selina's worsening condition, and Rosa shares a personal secret: she is pregnant and had wanted Selina to be the first to know. While the others spring into action, Alfred stays by Bruce's side, his hand on his shoulder. "We will find her, sir," he says quietly. "We must remain calm and focused." Bruce nods, his jaw tight. "You're right," he says, his eyes never leaving Selina's tortured form on the screen. He can't shake the feeling that he's failed her, that he should have seen this coming. A new feed...horrific... Selina is now hanging from chains, her wrists and ankles bound. The Joker enters the frame, a clownish grin plastered on his face. "Hello, lover," he says to the camera, waving cheerfully. "Miss me?" Selina's eyes burn with fury and despair. "Bruce," she whispers, her voice barely audible. "Help me." The Joker's laughter echoes through the room. "Ah, Selina," he says, his tone mockingly gentle. "Don't you know by now? He doesn't care about you. He never did." Selina's eyes widen in shock. "That's not true," she says, her voice shaking. "Oh, but it is," the Joker croons. "He's probably with her right now. You know, the one who really matters." "Who?" Selina asks, her voice strained. The Joker leans in close, his breath hot on Selina's face. "Diana." SUMMARY^1: Alfred remains with Bruce, urging calm and focus as the Justice League acts. A new feed shows Selina suspended by chains, with the Joker taunting Selina with claims of Bruce's infidelity with Diana, causing Selina distress and disbelief. Selina's mind reels. "Wonder Woman?" she asks, incredulously. "Oh, you know her," the Joker says, his smile growing wider. "He's probably whispering sweet nothings in her ear right now." Selina shakes her head, trying to clear the fog of doubt that's seeping in. "No," she says, her voice firm. "Bruce loves me." "Love is a fickle thing, isn't it?" the Joker says, his eyes gleaming. "Easy to lose, easy to replace." Diana, Batman's partner, the woman he trusts above all others. The thought of them together is like a knife twisting in Selina's gut. Watching from the Batcave, Bruce feels his rage boiling over. He can't let Selina think he's abandoned her. He has to find her now. Diana, is trying her hardest not to cry, knowing that Selina isn't in a stable state of mind. "Bruce, she's just trying to get to you," she says, her voice shaking. "Don't listen to him." Rosa, tears streaming down her face, checks her gun and badge, "I'm gonna patrol Gotham, I'll call if I get any updates." Harley looks at Bruce with a mix of anger and pity. "You gotta save her, Puddin," she says, using her old pet name for the Joker. "She's nothin' without you." Bruce nods, his resolve hardening. "I will," he says. "No matter what it takes." But as the days turn into weeks, and the feeds from the Joker become more and more disturbing, Selina starts to believe the Joker's taunts. Her spirit, usually unbreakable, starts to crack under the relentless barrage of his twisted words. SUMMARY^1: The Joker's taunts about Bruce and Diana's supposed affair cause Selina to doubt Bruce's love. Despite Diana's reassurances, Selina's mental state deteriorates as the days pass and the video feeds grow more disturbing. Bruce remains determined to save Selina, while Rosa, unable to bear the torment, decides to patrol Gotham for leads. Harley, sympathetic, encourages Bruce to rescue Selina, highlighting her importance to him. The Joker's clownish visage loomed over her, a constant reminder of her helplessness. "You're nothing but a plaything, Selina," he whispers in her ear, his breath hot and rancid. "Bruce has moved on. He's with someone else now." Selina shakes her head, trying to hold onto the belief that Bruce would never leave her, that he would come for her. "No," she murmurs weakly. "Bruce loves me." "Love is just a four-letter lie," the Joker laughs. "You're just another conquest to him. A trophy to be won and discarded." Sobs wrack her body "NO!" she screams, thrashing against her restraints."Your lyin-- pleasee." Days bleed into each other, a never-ending cycle of pain and despair. The Joker's taunts become more personal, more vicious. He tells her of Bruce's supposed affair, painting a picture of a love she no longer recognizes. Selina's thoughts swirl in a whirlwind of doubt and fear. Was their love just an illusion? Was she ever more than just a trophy to him? Her eyes glaze over as she watches the Joker play with his cards, his twisted smile never fading. "Why bother fighting?" he says, flipping through the cards. "You know he's not coming for you." The words hit her like a ton of bricks, and she feels something within her begin to give way. "Why?" she asks, her voice barely above a whisper. "Because you're not worth it," the Joker says, his eyes gleaming with malice. "You never were." Bruce slams his fist on the control panel, the screens flickering before him. The Joker's taunts echo in his ears, taunts that he knows are calculated to break Selina's spirit. "Alfred, any progress?" he growls, his voice tight with rage. "None, sir," Alfred's calm voice responds. "The signal is being bounced around various locations. It's as if he's playing a game of cat and mouse with us." "We can't let him win," Bruce says, his jaw set. "We have to find her." Rosa's updates are infrequent, her voice strained with every call. The lack of information is driving them all insane, but Bruce knows Selina's sister won't rest until she finds her. SUMMARY^1: Selina's mental state continues to decline as the Joker's taunts about Bruce's infidelity grow more intense. She questions the authenticity of their love. Meanwhile, Bruce is desperate to find her, but the Joker's use of technology to obscure Selina's location makes it a challenging game of cat and mouse. Rosa's efforts to find Selina through her police connections remain unsuccessful, adding to the tension. SUMMARY^2: Selina's mental state deteriorates as the Joker feeds her false information about Bruce's infidelity. Despite the Justice League's efforts, including Superman's and Harley's, Selina remains captive. The Joker's use of technology hinders their rescue mission, and Rosa's attempts through the Gotham PD yield no results, exacerbating the tension. The next Morning.... Nobody went to sleep in the Batcave. They all stayed up trying to find Selina. Alfred brewed strong black coffee, trying to keep the team going despite the heavy weight of dread in the air. Bruce, his eyes bloodshot and face etched with tension, studied the monitors, searching for any clue to her whereabouts. On the screen, Selina's head hangs low, her body bruised and broken. The Joker's laughter pierced the quiet of the cave like shards of glass. "Looks like your Bat's too busy with Diana," he sneers, his voice a knife twisting in Selina's heart. "He's probably forgotten all about you." Selina's eyes widen with disbelief. "No," she whispers. "Bruce wouldn't... He loves me." The Joker leans in, his face grotesque in the harsh light. "Love?" he scoffs. "That's just a word people use to justify their weaknesses. You're nothing but a toy to him, Selina. A toy he's tired of playing with." The sound of a chain rattling brought everyone to their feet in the Batcave. Bruce's eyes narrowed as the Joker swung the weapon with a flourish. "You're a liar," Selina spits through clenched teeth. "Am I?" the Joker asks, raising the chain high. "We'll see how much you believe that when I'm done with you." The chain comes down, the sound of it connecting with Selina's flesh making Bruce's stomach turn. She screams, and the sound echoes through the cave, a tortured symphony of pain and despair. He continues to beat her, until the chain finnaly snaps. "I'm sorry," Selina whimpers, tears streaming down her face. "Plea-" The Joker doesn't let her finish. "You're sorry?" he screams. She nods. "For what exactly?" SUMMARY^1: A restless night at the Batcave yields no progress in finding Selina. The Joker sends another taunting video, depicting Selina's severe physical and emotional torment. Bruce is haunted by the sight and Selina's weakening spirit as she begs for mercy, which only fuels the Joker's sadistic enjoyment. The tension rises as the Joker continues to manipulate Selina's doubt in Bruce's love. "For whatever I did wrong~~" SHe sobs choking on her blood. The Joker laughs, the sound echoing through the cavernous space. "You think this is about something you did wrong?" He says, his eyes gleaming with madness. "This isn't about you, Selina. It's about him. It's always about him." The chain rises and falls, each blow a symphony of agony. Selina's cries fill the air, her once vibrant spirit fading with each strike. First to cry is Harley, who rushes out of the room, unable to bear the sight of her former tormentor's handiwork. Then Diana, her Amazonian resolve shattering like glass. Nightwing, the first Robin, clenches his fists, his rage palpable. Bruce watches, his eyes burning with a fury that could melt steel. The Joker's taunts become a white noise, drowned out by the thundering beat of his own heart. He has to save Selina. He can't let this monster win. The video feed cuts out abruptly, leaving them all in silence. The sudden absence of sound is more deafening than the screams that came before. Rosa's voice cracks over the intercom. "I've got nothing. ANything on your end?" SUMMARY^1: The Joker's video reveals Selina's unbearable suffering, causing emotional distress among the Justice League. Harley and Diana are visibly affected, while Nightwing's rage is palpable. The feed abruptly ends, leaving the group in a tense silence. Rosa's lack of progress in the search underscores their desperation. Bruce's eyes are glued to the black screen. "Keep looking," he says, his voice strained. "We can't give up." "We won't," Derek promises, his jaw tight. The room is a flurry of activity as the Justice League and the Gotham PD work tirelessly to locate Selina. Every lead, no matter how small, is followed. Every possible hideout is searched. But the Joker is like a ghost, leaving no trace behind. Days turn into weeks, and the hope of finding Selina alive starts to dwindle. But Bruce refuses to give up. He knows Selina is a fighter, that she won't let the Joker break her so easily. A monther later... The Joker's laughter fills Selina's ears as she's dragged through the cold, dank halls of his twisted amusement park. She's lost track of the days, the pain a constant companion. Her body is bruised and broken, but it's the emotional torment that truly wounds her. She's been subjected to unspeakable acts, each one designed to break her spirit and make her feel worthless. One night, when the pain is too much to bear, she whispers into the darkness, "Bruce, please find me." The Joker's cackle is the only response. "Your prince isn't coming, Selina," he says, his voice a serpent's hiss. "You're all alone now." The words are a punch to the gut, and Selina feels something within her shatter. SUMMARY^1: The Justice League and Gotham PD tirelessly search for Selina, following every lead but to no avail. Bruce's hope wavers as days become weeks, but he refuses to quit. Meanwhile, Selina's ordeal continues in the Joker's hellish amusement park, her spirit crushed by his relentless emotional and physical abuse. SUMMARY^2: The Joker sends a distressing video of Selina, causing an emotional toll on the Justice League. Despite relentless searches, Selina remains unfound, trapped in the Joker's amusement park. Bruce's hope diminishes with each passing day, but his determination to rescue her is unshaken. SUMMARY^3: Bruce and Selina, both in their 20s and married, have a playful moment in the Batcave before Selina heads out for a risky errand. Upon her disappearance, Bruce discovers a Joker card and a disturbing video, confirming her kidnapping. The Justice League, including Superman and Harley, is assembled, but despite their efforts and Rosa's involvement of the Gotham PD, Selina's whereabouts remain unknown. The Joker's use of technology and an elaborate trap at his amusement park thwarts rescue attempts. Meanwhile, Selina's mental state is compromised by the Joker's manipulation and Rosa's personal crisis of a secret pregnancy intensifies the urgency. The door to her cell opens, and she's pulled out, her legs giving out beneath her. The Joker looms over her, his eyes gleaming with madness. "Let's play a new game," he says, his voice sickeningly cheerful. "One where you learn your place." Selina tries to fight, to claw her way out of this nightmare, but she's too weak. She can't escape as he violates her in the most heinous way possible. Each sickening thrust feels like a betrayal, like Bruce is watching, unable to save her. She screams for it to stop, for the pain to end. But the Joker only laughs, enjoying every moment of her agony. Bruce, back at the Batcave, feels like he's going insane. The guilt and fear are a constant, pulsing ache in his chest. He's failed Selina in the worst way imaginable. He's failed to keep her safe, failed to be the hero she deserves. Diana, seeing the toll this is taking on him, tries to offer comfort, but he pushes her away. "This is my fault," he says, his voice thick with self-loathing. "I should have seen this coming." Nightwing, unable to watch his mentor crumble, takes the lead on the search. He knows the streets of Gotham like the back of his hand, and he won't rest until Selina is found. The next feed is worse than any of the others. Selina's eyes are vacant, the light in them extinguished. The Joker stands over her, a twisted grin on his face. "Looks like she's learned her lesson," he says to the camera. Rosa, who has been working tirelessly alongside the Gotham PD, slams her fist into the wall. "We need to find her," she says, her voice a mix of anger and despair. Since she is pregant, she can't go into the field. Derek wraps an arm around her. "We will," he says, his voice firm. "But we have to be smart about it." Bruce nods, his eyes never leaving Selina's broken form on the screen. He's going to find her, no matter what it takes. He's going to save her, and then he's going to make the Joker pay. A new feed... The screen flickers to life, and Selina is lying on a cold, concrete floor. Her body is covered in bruises and cuts, and she's wearing nothing but shreds of what used to be her costume. The Joker stands over her, holding a knife, his eyes gleaming with malice. "Time for the grand finale," he says, his voice echoing in the empty room. Selina looks up at him, her eyes devoid of hope. "Please," she whispers, "just kill me." The Joker laughs, the sound chilling even Bruce's blood. "Oh no," he says, "that would be too easy." The knife comes down, and Selina's screams pierce the air. Bruce feels his world shatter into a million pieces. He can't take it anymore. He needs to end this. He needs to save Selina before it's too late. "Anything Oracle?" "No, but I'm still searching," Barbara's voice says through the coms. Bruce turns to the screen again "I'm coming sweetheart." He mummurs, tears rolling down his cheeks, even though he knows she can't hear him. After being viciously stabbed over 165 times, Selina's screams turn to whimpers. The Joker laughs "Looks like the cat has had her fill," he says, tossing the knife aside. "But don't worry, I've got plenty more tricks up my sleeve." Bruce's hand shakes as he watches Selina's body convulse with pain. He has to get to her, he has to save her. The Justice League members exchange worried glances. They know what the Joker is capable of, and the thought of Selina suffer 2 months later... A new feed, Selina is barely recognizable, her once vibrant eyes now dull and lifeless. The Joker walks in, an axe in hand. "Time for some fun," he says, his voice filled with glee. Selina's body jerks as she's dragged to her feet. Her breath comes in ragged gasps, and she can barely stand. Bruce feels like he's going to be sick as he watches the Joker raise the axe. "No," he whispers, his voice hoarse with pain. The axe comes down, and Selina's screams fill the air. The Joker laughs, a sound that makes Bruce's skin crawl. The video feed cuts out, leaving the room in stunned silence. Rosa, who had been sitting quietly in the corner, her hands over her swollen belly, jumps to her feet. "I can't take this anymore," she says, her voice shaking. "I need to do something." Derek nods, his eyes hard. "We'll find her," he says. "But we can't let him see us comin-" "We dont even know where to look!" She yells, "It's been 5 months!" Back on screen, Selina is lying in a pool of blood, her breathing shallow. Oracle slams her fist on her console "No trace nothing. I can't trace the feed." SUMMARY^1: The Joker's torture of Selina escalates, culminating in a horrific act of violence that leaves her near death. Despite the Justice League's efforts, the location remains unknown, and the emotional toll is heavy on the team. Bruce's guilt and determination are palpable, and even as Selina begs for death, they continue searching, though the hope diminishes with each passing week. The latest video shows Selina in a dire state, prompting an emotional outburst from Rosa, who is struggling with her pregnancy and inability to directly help. Oracle confirms no trace of Selina's whereabouts from the feeds. 9 months later.. Rosa was so stressed out she had a miscarriage.She was devastated but she had to keep looking for Selina, she was her baby sister and she was all she had left. Bruce had become a shell of the man he once was, his rage and fear consuming him. The Joker's taunts had taken a toll on Selina. She no longer believed in rescue, in love, or in herself. She was a broken woman, a mere shadow of the fiery Catwoman that had once roamed the streets of Gotham. Her spirit, once unbreakable, was now shattered beyond repair. The Joker, not satisfied with the state of his captive, decided to up the ante. He approached Selina, who was barely conscious, and whispered, "It's time to show you what a real clown does to a cat." He picked up the axe, a twisted smile on his face, ready to continue his sick game. Bruce and the team watched the feed, their hearts breaking with every blow the Joker rained down on Selina. They had followed every lead, searched every corner of Gotham, but it was as if she had disappeared into thin air. The Joker was playing with them, enjoying the pain he inflicted not just on Selina, but on all of them. The video goes on, Selina's screams piercing the Batcave like a thousand needles. Bruce feels his world crumbling around him. The Joker's laughter rings in his ears, a constant reminder of his failure. He's lost track of time, lost track of everything except the need to find Selina. SUMMARY^1: After 9 months, Selina's condition worsens as the Joker continues his psychological and physical torment. The tragedy of Rosa's miscarriage adds to the team's despair, as they remain unable to locate Selina despite relentless efforts. Bruce's guilt and anger consume him, turning him into a mere shell. The Justice League witnesses Selina's unbearable suffering in the latest video, and the Joker's taunts are a painful reminder of their ongoing failure to rescue her. SUMMARY^2: The Joker's abuse of Selina reaches a peak, with her near death. Despite their exhaustive efforts, the Justice League cannot locate her, causing immense emotional strain. Rosa experiences a miscarriage, adding to the group's despair. Bruce's hope diminishes, and the Joker's taunts continue in the background, highlighting their ineffectiveness. A new feed comes in. The Joker is standing in a room that's a twisted parody of a bridal suite, Selina bound to a chair, her head forced back. His eyes gleam with malice as he brings out a bottle of what looks like champagne. "Let's toast to your new life," he says, his voice a chilling whisper. The cork pops, and Selina flinches as the liquid sprays her face. The Joker leans in, his grin stretching wider. "Lick me," he commands, his painted red tongue outstretched. Selina's eyes meet the camera, and for a moment, she seems to find a spark of defiance. But the spark quickly dies as she obeys, her tongue moving slowly, painfully, across the Joker's disgusting mouth. Thoose to cry were Harley, Damian, Rosa, Diana and Alfred. Even Dick and Derek had to look away. The Joker's laughter fills the room, a sound that seems to echo through the very fabric of the Batcave. Bruce's eyes narrow, his rage reaching a boiling point. "This ends now," he says, his voice a low, deadly growl. The Joker's smile falters as Selina's tongue traces the edges of his mouth, a silent plea for mercy. But mercy is not something the Joker knows. He pulls back, the grin on his face turning to a sneer. "You're just a dirty little whore," he says, spitting in Selina's face. "Just like all the other toys I've played with." The words hit Selina like a slap, and she starts to cry, her tears mixing with the Joker's saliva. "I-I'm So sorry~" She sobs, chokeing on her blod and tears. Diana whispers to the screen "Don't be." The Joker's eyes light up with glee at Selina's misery. "Oh, she's learned her lesson," he says to the camera, his voice taunting. "But the fun's not over yet." He moves behind Selina, and the sound of a belt unbuckling fills the air. Bruce's fists clench, his body coiled like a spring. He's going to rip the Joker's head from his shoulders. The feed goes dark, and the room is filled with the sound of Selina's muffled screams. "Please don't do this to her." The Flash whispers, his eyes glistening with tears. "Oracle." "Nothing. I' can't find him-" She starts to say but Bruce cuts her off. "Find him danm it!" "I'M TRYING!" She yells back "He knows what hes doing. I haven't found a single tace to his whereabouts." The Joker's laughter echoes through the room, a sound that seems to follow them wherever they go. They know what's happening to Selina, but they can't do anything to stop it. The helplessness is a knife in Bruce's gut, twisting with every second that ticks by. The next day... SUMMARY^1: In a twisted bridal suite setup, the Joker forces Selina to lick him, pushing her to new depths of despair. The Justice League, including a tearful Harley, watches in horror. Bruce's anger peaks, and the Joker's words trigger a powerful emotional response from Selina. Despite Oracle's continuous efforts, they still can't find a trace of the Joker's location, leaving everyone feeling helpless and trapped in a cycle of pain and despair. The new feed starts, and Selina is barely conscious. The Joker cackles, "Look who's here," and the door to the room opens. Bane, the monstrous brute, walks in, his eyes on Selina's battered body. Selina's eyes widen with terror as she recognizes her new tormentor. Bruce feels like he's going to be sick. "No," he whispers, his fists clenching. But the Joker only laughs. "You know the rules," he says to Bane, handing him the keys to Selina's chains. "Take your turn, big guy." Bane approaches Selina with a sadistic smile, his massive body casting a shadow over her. Bruce watches, his heart pounding in his chest, as Selina is violated once again, her screams echoing through the Batcave. She tries to fight him off, but she's too weak, too broken. The room is filled with the sound of flesh slapping against flesh, the Joker's laughter, and Selina's sobs. Bruce wants to close his eyes, to block out the horror, but he can't. He has to watch. He has to remember every detail so that he can avenge her. As Bane finishes, the Joker claps his hands together. "Bravo," he says, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "You've outdone yourself." Selina lies there, her eyes glazed over. She doesn't move, doesn't speak. She's lost in a world of pain and despair. Bruce finally breaks and starts crying, his shoulders heaving with sobs. He can't take it anymore. He has to save Selina before it's too late. The Joker, seemingly bored with Selina's condition, turns to the camera. "I think it's time for a new game," he says, his smile never wavering. "One that'll really get your blood pumping, Batman." The screen goes black, and Bruce knows that the Joker isn't done with Selina. He's just getting started. The next feed is Selina being raped by Two-Face, the Joker's twisted sense of humor on full display. Selina's whimpers and cries fill the Batcave, and Bruce feels his heart break all over again. He's failed her. He's failed everyone. The team watches in horror, unable to do anything but listen. Even the stoic Alfred starts to shake, his handkerchief pressed to his mouth. The Joker's laughter echoes through the darkness, a haunting sound that follows Selina's cries. "You're not worth it," he says to Selina, his voice a whisper in her ear. "You never were." Bruce knows that he has to find Selina. He has to save her. He can't let the Joker win. The search intensifies, every member of the Justice League and the Gotham PD on high alert. They comb through every inch of the city, following every lead, no matter how small. But the Joker is always one step ahead. The days turn into weeks, and the feeds keep coming. Each one more twisted than the last. Selina's condition worsens, her spirit slowly dying with every new assault. And still, no trace of her location. The next feed after being raping Selina again the Joker asks her whats she wants. "a blanket...." She whispers, her voice a mere thread of sound, The Joker's twisted grin widens. "Ah, poor kitty," he coos, stroking her cheek with a finger that feels like a snake slithering across her skin. "Bane, she's feeling a bit...frisky." SUMMARY^1: A new video shows Selina being brutally assaulted by Bane under the Joker's instructions, pushing Bruce to his limits. The Joker introduces a sadistic game involving Two-Face, with Selina suffering through each new atrocity. Despite the Justice League's heightened search efforts, they remain unable to find Selina, and her condition continues to deteriorate. Her desperate pleas for a blanket highlight her dwindling hope and the Joker's relentless cruelty. Bane steps forward, his eyes on Selina's barely-covered form. His massive body towers over her, and she can feel his hot breath on her neck as he reaches for her. She tries to fight, to scream, but the Joker's laughter drowns out her pleas. The camera zooms in, capturing every moment of Selina's degradation. Bane's brutal hands tear away what's left of her costume, revealing the bruises and scars that mar her once-perfect skin. She closes her eyes, trying to block out the horror, but the pain is everywhere. It's in the cold metal of the chains that bite into her wrists, in the smell of the Joker's sickly sweet cologne, and in the sound of his sadistic laughter. The beast that was once a man named Bane looms over her, his eyes devoid of any semblance of humanity. Selina tries to find a shred of dignity, a spark of hope, but it's gone. The Joker's twisted games have taken everything from her, leaving only a hollow shell. As Bane begins to violate her, she can't help but wonder if this is what it feels like to die. Thoose who cry are Harley, who's now crying uncontrollably, Rosa, who's lost her baby because of this, Alfred who's trying to maintain his composure, Diana who's hand is over her mouth, Barry, who's cying, Oliver who's clenching his bow, Damian who's face is a mask of rage, and Derek who's trying to keep everyone calm. SUMMARY^1: Selina endures another round of torture, this time at the hands of Bane, as the Joker continues his sadistic game. Her physical and emotional state worsens, leaving her a mere shadow of her former self. The Justice League, already reeling from recent events, watches in despair, unable to intervene. The traumatic scene unfolds, with each member reacting to Selina's suffering in their own way, their unity strained by the horror they're witnessing. SUMMARY^2: The Joker escalates Selina's torment, including a forced interaction with Bane. Oracle's efforts to find Selina remain unsuccessful. The Justice League's unity falters as they witness Selina's worsening condition in a series of disturbing videos, with each member feeling the emotional burden differently. Bruce watches the feed, his eyes burning with rage and despair. He's failed her. He's failed Selina, and he's failed as Batman. He can't save her. He can't even find her. The feed cuts off abruptly, leaving them all in silence. The room feels like a tomb, the weight of their failure crushing the air from their lungs. Days turn into weeks, and the feeds continue. Selina's condition deteriorates, and with each new video, Bruce feels a piece of himself die. The Joker's taunts grow more personal, more vicious. He knows he's breaking Selina, and it's all for Bruce's benefit. The next feed starts, and Selina is standing in the middle of a room, surrounded by the Joker's twisted toys. She looks so small, so vulnerable. "Let's play a game," the Joker says, his voice like nails on a chalkboard. "You're going to try to escape, kitty. But remember, if you fail, I'll have to punish you." "I don't want to play." She mumurs slumping to the floor. "Oh, but you will," he says, and kicks her hard in the stomach. "You're going to run, and I'm going to chase you. And if you don't make it out, well..." He laughs, a sound that makes Bruce's skin crawl. "Let's just say you won't like the alternative." The catch was...there is no exit. SUMMARY^1: The Joker's torture of Selina escalates as he forces her into a sadistic escape game. Bruce, watching the feeds, feels his hope and sanity slipping away with each new atrocity. The Justice League remains powerless to rescue her, their emotions raw and their efforts fruitless. The realization that Selina is trapped with no actual means of escape adds a new layer of horror to the situation. The Joker's twisted sense of humor is on full display as Selina stumbles to her feet, her eyes searching the room desperately. She knows there's no escape, but she has to try. For Bruce, for herself, she has to keep fighting. As Selina makes a run for it, the Joker's laughter follows her like a dark shadow. She can hear his footsteps, heavy and deliberate, as he gives chase. The room is a maze of horrors, each turn revealing a new nightmare. She tries to ignore the pain, the fear, but it's all-consuming. The Joker's laughter grows louder, closer, until she can feel his breath on the back of her neck. She screams, her body trembling with the effort to keep moving. But it's no use. He's too fast, too strong. The room goes black, and Selina feels herself being hoisted into the air. The Joker's grip is like a vice, squeezing the life out of her. "You lost," he says, his voice a chilling whisper. The screen flickers back to life, and Selina is strung up by her wrists, her toes barely brushing the ground. The Joker stands in front of her, a whip in one hand, a sadistic smile on his face. "Looks like you need a little...motivation," he says, and the whip cracks through the air, biting into Selina's already bruised and bleeding flesh. Her screams are music to his ears, and he revels in the power he has over her. Bruce watches, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles are white. He wants to rip the Joker's throat out, but he's trapped in the Batcave, forced to watch the love of his life suffer. The Joker's face is a twisted mask of pleasure as he continues to torture Selina. "You know, I'm starting to enjoy this," he says, lashing her again. "You're such a good sport." The Justice League and Alfred look on in horror, their eyes never leaving the screen. They've never seen Bruce like this, so helpless, so defeated. The Joker's game has taken a heavy toll on all of them, but none more so than Selina. The whipping continues, Selina's screams mixing with the Joker's laughter. The sound is a symphony of pain and despair, and Bruce feels like he's going to shatter. He's failed her in every way possible. Selina thrashes and begs, her voice barely a whisper. "Please...I-m sorry" SUMMARY^1: Selina is subjected to an escape game designed to fail, and upon her inevitable recapture, the Joker takes great pleasure in her suffering, using a whip to inflict pain. The Justice League and Alfred watch in horror as Selina's condition worsens, her spirit crumbling with each lash. Bruce's anguish is palpable, and the Joker's sadistic joy in her pain further fuels his anger and sense of failure. The relentlessness of the torture and the group's inability to intervene deepens their collective despair. The Joker's smile widens, and he leans in close to her ear. "You're pathetic," he whispers. "You're nothing but a toy for me to play with." The whip cracks once more, and Selina goes limp, her body no longer able to endure the pain. Bruce feels his world collapse around him. He's lost her. The feed abruptly cuts off, leaving them all in stunned silence. The only sound in the Batcave is the echo of Selina's last agonized cry. Bruce slumps in his chair, his eyes unfocused. He's lost everything. His love, his hope, his purpose. The Joker has won. A full year later.... The Joker sends another message, this one more taunting than the rest. "Miss me?" he says, his voice a mocking sing-song. He hod out four canisters, and one of the rolls away toward Selina who is laying in her own blood on the floor. As the Joker is talking to the camera, Selina uses her last bit of energy to throw it at the Joker, hitting him in the head, and he falls to the ground unconsious. She leans back on the wall all her energy gone. SUMMARY^1: The Joker's final act of cruelty against Selina leaves her barely alive, her spirit crushed. A year has passed since the harrowing events, yet a new message arrives. Selina, on the brink of death, finds the strength to fight back, striking the Joker with a canister and rendering him unconscious. This unexpected turn gives her a chance to survive, offering a glimmer of hope amidst the darkness. SUMMARY^2: Selina endures a series of sadistic escape games designed to fail. The Justice League remains unable to rescue her, their unity strained by the trauma. Selina's spirit diminishes with each failed attempt, reaching a breaking point. A year later, she surprisingly fights back, leaving the Joker unconscious and giving everyone a glimmer of hope. The camera zooms out, revealing Selina's shackled body and the unconscious Joker sprawled on the floor. Her eyes are hollow, her spirit all but extinguished. The Justice League watches in disbelief, their hearts racing as Selina struggles to breathe. Harley touches the screen "Keep fighting Selina," she whispers through her tears. The Joker gets up, holding his head with one hand, his other reaching for Selina. "You're going to regret that," he snarls, but before he can react, Selina starts crying. Not from pain, but from something deeper, something primal. Her sobs echo in the cold, damp room. The Joker pauses, his smile fading. "What's the matter, kitty?" he asks, genuinely curious. "Please," Selina gasps, "just...make it stop." The room falls silent, even the Joker's laughter seems to die away. The Joker's eyes narrow, his curiosity piqued. "Make what stop?" he asks, his voice a low, dangerous whisper. "This...game," Selina says, her voice barely audible. "Make it end." The Joker leans in, his face a mask of mock concern. "But why would I do that?" he says, his voice dripping with malice. "It's just getting started." He grabs Selina's chin, forcing her to look at him. "You're my masterpiece," he says, his eyes gleaming. "And I'm not done playing with you yet. Bruce doesn't even care to save you....He's busy with his other lover. He doesn't love you Selina. He never did." The words hit Selina like a sledgehammer, and she feels a fresh wave of despair wash over her. "Why?" SUMMARY^1: Selina, on the verge of death, fakes weakness to manipulate the Joker, who falls for it momentarily. However, her pleas for the torment to end only serve to amuse him further, as he sees her as his ultimate "masterpiece" to be continually tormented. The Joker delivers a crushing emotional blow by claiming Bruce has moved on with another lover, shattering Selina's hope and leaving her in a state of profound despair. The Joker's smile widens. "Because your nothing to him, he's busy with Diana." The room goes cold. The Joker has hit a nerve, and Selina's eyes fill with tears. "But-he said he loves me." The Joker laughs, a harsh, grating sound. "Oh, he says a lot of things," he says, his grip on Selina's chin tightening. "But actions speak louder than words, don't they?" He releases her, and she falls back against the wall, her breathing shallow. SUMMARY^1: The Joker uses Selina's desperate hope against her, claiming Bruce has replaced her with Diana, one of the League members. This revelation shatters Selina's spirit further, leaving her in a state of shock and disbelief as she grapples with the potential betrayal by the man she loves. The Joker's cruel words echo through the room, deepening the emotional torment she endures. The next feed starts, and Selina's heart sinks as she sees the Joker holding a pair of glow sticks, his twisted grin spreading wide. "Let's light up the night," he says, snapping them to reveal the bright, neon colors. He approaches her, the sticks glowing eerily in the darkness. Selina's eyes widen in horror as she realizes his intentions. The Joker doesn't just want to rape her; he wants to defile her in every way imaginable. The Joker starts to taunt Selina, his eyes gleaming with malicious intent. "You're going to scream for me," he says, his voice low and menacing. "You're going to beg for it." Selina's mind races, searching for a way out, a way to end this nightmare. But she knows there is none. The Joker's games have no limits, no mercy. Her body tenses as he brings the glow sticks closer, the cold plastic touching her skin. The light from them seems to pierce her soul, a cruel reminder of the darkness that has consumed her life. The Joker's laughter fills the room as he forces the glow sticks into Selina, the sound of snapping plastic echoing through the cavernous space. Selina's screams are muffled by the gag in her mouth, but her eyes tell the whole story. The pain, the humiliation, the despair. Bruce watches in horror, his fists clenching and unclenching. The Joker's sadism knows no bounds, and Selina's agony is a constant reminder of his failure. The Joker pulls out the broken glow sticks, his eyes never leaving Selina's. "You're mine," he says, his voice a sneer. "Forever and ever." The feed goes dark, and the room is left in silence, the echo of Selina's muffled screams hanging in the air. The next day... He comse into veiw to rape her againthis time with a pair of barbed wire-covered dildos. Rosa looks away, her face pale. "I can't...I can't watch this," she says, her voice shaking. Derek puts an arm around her, his jaw clenched. "We have to," he says, his eyes never leaving the screen. "We can't let him win." The Joker cackles as he straps Selina down, her wrists and ankles bound to the chair. "Let's see how much you can take," he says, his voice a mix of excitement and malice. The barbed wire digs into Selina's skin as the Joker thrusts the dildos into her, his movements brutal and unrelenting. She tries to scream, but the gag muffles the sound, leaving only her desperate whimpers to fill the room. The Justice League watches in silent rage, their eyes never leaving Selina's face. They've seen her in pain before, but this is different. This is personal, and it's tearing them apart. Oracle's fingers fly across her keyboard, searching for a clue, any clue that might lead them to Selina. But the Joker's tech is too sophisticated. He's covered his tracks too well. The Joker's laughter reaches a crescendo as Selina's body convulses with pain. "You're so beautiful when you scream," he says, his voice a sadistic purr. The next hour, he rapes her again, this time with a pair of sissors, the cold metal cutting into her already torn flesh. Her eyes are wide with terror, her body trembling. And then...he opens them...inside her. Dear god. "Oh my god," Alfred whispers, unable to contain his horror. Diana starts to retch. Rosa's hand covers her mouth, tears streaming down her face. Superman starts to cry, uncontrollably. Even Oliver, who has seen more than his fair share of pain, looks like he might break. The room is a whirlwind of emotions, but one thing is clear: they have to find Selina. They can't let her suffer like this anymore. The Joker's face fills the screen, A knife in hand, "want a suviner?" He reaches towards Selina, his hand hovering over her ring finger....then cuts it off. SUMMARY^1: In a new round of sadistic games, the Joker uses glow sticks and barbed wire-covered dildos to further torture Selina. Despite the Justice League's agony at witnessing this, their efforts to locate her remain futile due to the Joker's advanced technology. The traumatic event of Selina's ring finger being severed by the Joker escalates the urgency of their mission. Each member of the League reacts differently to the horror, with some succumbing to tears and others to anger, yet they remain united in their desperation to save her. SUMMARY^2: Selina's hope is shattered by the Joker's claim of Bruce moving on with Diana, which deepens her despair. Despite her feigned weakness, the Joker remains in control, continuing his emotional and physical abuse. The Justice League remains unable to locate her due to his sophisticated technology, their unity tested by the harrowing events. SUMMARY^3: Over a year, Selina's condition worsens, with the Joker pushing her to near-death and introducing Bane into her torment. Rosa's tragic miscarriage adds to the group's pain. Despite Oracle's efforts, Selina is not found, and the Joker sends taunting videos. The Justice League's unity is tested by their inability to rescue Selina. In a brief moment of strength, Selina fights back, offering a glimpse of hope. However, the Joker's psychological manipulation about Bruce and Diana devastates her. The Joker maintains control with advanced technology, obscuring Selina's location and exacerbating the League's distress. SUMMARY^4: In their early 20s, Selina is kidnapped by the Joker after leaving for an errand, prompting Bruce to gather the Justice League for a rescue. Despite their efforts, including Oracle's intel and a failed attempt at the amusement park, Selina remains missing. Over a year of torment and mental manipulation, Selina endures near-death experiences and the introduction of Bane, while the Joker sends taunts. Rosa faces a personal tragedy of miscarriage. The Joker's use of technology keeps Selina's location hidden, and his manipulations about Bruce and Diana further break her spirit. The camera zooms in on Selina's hand, the ring finger gone, and a spurt of blood shooting out like a macabre fountain. The Joker holds up the bloody digit, the ring still attached, and laughs maniacally. "Here's a little something to remember me by," he says, tossing it into the camera. The feed cuts out, leaving them all in shocked silence. Bruce's eyes are full of unshed tears, his fists trembling with rage. "That's it," he says, his voice low and dangerous. "I'm going to kill him." The team exchanges worried glances. They know Bruce isn't in the right state of mind to go after the Joker alone, but his pain is palpable. They can't argue with his need for vengeance. Oracle, her voice calm despite the horror, speaks up. "We still dont have a location." SUMMARY^1: Selina's traumatic mutilation is broadcasted to the Justice League, intensifying their collective anguish. Despite the clear danger of the Joker's taunts pushing Bruce to the edge of his sanity, Oracle remains focused on the mission, reminding the group that Selina's location remains unknown. The tension in the room is thick as they confront the reality of Selina's suffering and the urgency of their rescue effort. Bruce turns to her, his eyes burning with anger. "Then we find one," he says, his voice a growl. "We're going to tear this city apart until we do." The Justice League members nod in unison. They know that Bruce's rage is their best weapon right now. They'll use it to fuel their search, to find Selina. They split up, each one taking a sector of Gotham to scour for any trace of the Joker's hideout. The streets are eerily quiet as they search, the usual cries for help silenced by the fear of what's happening beneath the city's surface. The tension is unbearable, the air thick with anticipation and dread. Each corner turned, each shadow searched could reveal Selina's location, or it could be another dead end. Days turn into nights, and the feeds keep coming. Each one more horrifying than the last. Selina's spirit seems to be fading with each new torture, but she stops begging for him to kill her, or to beging for him to stop. Her eyes are hollow, her body a canvas of bruises and scars. Yet, she endures, She no longer belives that anyone will come for her, or that anyone loves her. Bruce's voice, strained with emotion, breaks the silence. "We will," he says, his fists clenched so tight his knuckles threaten to pop. "We won't stop until we find you, Selina." The team nods solemnly, each one vowing silently to find her, to bring her home. But they don't. Soon the Joker grows bored of her normal torments, so he decides to play a game called surgeon. SUMMARY^1: Despite Selina's worsening condition and the emotional toll of the Joker's feeds, the Justice League is resolute in their mission. They divide Gotham into search sectors, driven by Bruce's unbridled rage and determination. Yet, Selina's hope diminishes with each passing day, leading the Joker to introduce a new game: 'Surgeon'. The League's collective commitment remains strong as they continue their desperate hunt for any sign of Selina. The feed comes back online, and Selina is laid out on a makeshift operating table, the Joker in a blood-spattered apron, a scalpel in his hand. He hums a nursery rhyme as he makes the first incision, in her leg, to the point of seeing her bone...then he crushes it. The room is filled with the sickening sound of bone breaking, Selina's muffled screams, and the Joker's laughter. "Let's see if we can fix this," he says, his eyes gleaming with madness. Bruce watches, his fists clenched so tight his knuckles have turned white. The others look away, unable to bear the sight of Selina's suffering. But he can't. He won't. He has to see this through. He has to find her. Suddenly Oracle just stops. "I can't do this." She says. Bruce turns to her, his eyes filled with rage and pain. "We have to," he says through gritted teeth. "We can't-" "No Bat's I can't. I'm going home. I haven't been sleeping, as if I would be able too but still." Bruce nods understandingly. "Take some time," he says, his voice strained. "We'll find her." Oracle nods and leaves the room, her shoulders slumped with defeat. The feed changes again, Selina's cries of pain filling the Batcave once more. The Joker has moved on to her abdomen, his hands slick with her blood. "It's a beautiful art, isn't it?" he says, his voice a manic giggle. "The human body is so...fragile." SUMMARY^1: The Joker's 'Surgeon' game begins, sending a wave of horror through the Justice League as they watch Selina's agonizing torment. Oracle reaches her breaking point, unable to continue watching, and leaves the room. Despite their individual struggles, Bruce remains steadfast in his resolve to find Selina, acknowledging Oracle's need for rest and promising they will not give up the search. The team's dynamic changes as they are confronted with Selina's worsening condition and the Joker's sadistic enjoyment. SUMMARY^2: The Joker's games continue with 'Surgeon', pushing Selina and the Justice League to their limits. Oracle, overwhelmed by the horror, steps away, while Bruce's anger fuels his determination to find Selina. The team's cohesion is tested, but their commitment to the rescue remains unwavering. The Justice League watches, each member's rage growing by the second. They can't just stand by and do nothing. They have to find Selina before it's too late. Barry, unable to take it any longer, turns to Bruce. "We can't just sit here and wait for him to kill her," he says, his voice shaking. "We have to do something!" Rosa nods, her eyes red with unshed tears. "We need to get her out of there," she says, her voice firm. "Now." Bruce's eyes never leave the screen. "We're running out of time," he says, his voice a low growl. "We need a plan. Something that'll get us to her without playing into his hands." Derek agrees. "We can't let him win," he says, his jaw set. "We have to find a way to beat him at his own game." Diana, her eyes steely, speaks up. "We need to get into his head," she says. "We know he enjoys the chaos, the fear. We need to find a way to turn that against him." The room buzzes with tension as they brainstorm, trying to outthink the madness that is the Joker. They know that Selina's life hangs by a thread, and every second counts. Soon The Joker gets bored "Well Kitty I think our playtime has come to an end. I'll just leave you here....to die. While I go on the run." And he leaves the feed on live while he leaves. Selina lays on the metal floor in her own blood, shaking. SUMMARY^1: The Justice League, pushed to their limits by Selina's torture, decides they must act immediately. They brainstorm a plan to outsmart the Joker, recognizing the urgency of the situation. Diana suggests turning his love for chaos against him. The Joker, growing bored with Selina's pain, abandons her to die in his hideout, leaving the feed live. This discovery fuels their desperation as they watch Selina's life deteriorate in real-time, adding a new layer of urgency to their rescue mission. The room goes quiet as they watch Selina struggle to breathe, the Joker's laughter echoing in the background. They know they're running out of options, and time is slipping through their fingers like sand. Buce watches the screen the entire day, refusing to leave Selina's side, not even for a second. The others take turns, bringing him food and water, but he barely acknowledges them. His mind is consumed with rage, with the need to find her. 2 days pass, and suddenly Selina takes a trembling gasp for air before she goes still. Nobody says a word as the reality of the situation hits them like a ton of bricks. Selina is gone. The Joker has won. Rosa collapses to the floor, sobbing. Derek wraps his arms around her, his own eyes wet with tears. Superman's fists clench so hard that the floor beneath them cracks. Alfred walks out of the room, unable to bear the sight any longer. Oliver drops his bow, his hands shaking. Nightwing and Redhood turn away crying. Even Harley, whose heart is as cold as ice, looks like she might break down. But Bruce is hurt worst of all, he falls to his knees, his head in his hands. "No," he whispers, his voice breaking. "No, no, no. Please, Selina." The room is a tomb, the only sound the soft beeping of the monitors and the occasional sniffle from the others. They've lost one of their own, and there's nothing they can do to change that. Suddenly Oracle burst through the doors exicited, so excited, it is almost innapropriate. "Hey Bats I've gota----whats wrong?" Bruce looks up at her, his eyes red and swollen. "We're too late," he says, his voice barely a whisper. "He killed her." Oracle's face falls, her heart racing. "No," she says, rushing to the screen. "No, no, no." But it's true. Selina's lifeless body lies on the cold, metal floor, her eyes staring at nothing. The room is a mix of emotions: grief, anger, disbelief. But one thing is clear: they need to find the Joker and make him pay for what he's done. "I was going to say I' have a location....A arena in the middle of the dessert in Las Vegas." She mummurs. SUMMARY^1: After two days of watching Selina's torment, the Justice League is devastated when they believe she has succumbed to her injuries. The room is filled with grief and despair as they process the loss of a team member. Just as they reach their darkest moment, Oracle returns with a potential location for Selina, an arena in the Las Vegas desert. This glimmer of hope pierces the silence and drives the group to refocus their efforts on capturing the Joker and avenging Selina's death, their emotions now a tumultuous mix of anger and determination. SUMMARY^2: The Justice League, desperate and grief-stricken by Selina's apparent death, refocuses on capturing the Joker and avenging her. Oracle provides a new location lead: an abandoned arena in the Las Vegas desert. The team's sorrow turns into a fiery resolve to bring the Joker to justice. Bruce's head snaps up, hope flickering in his eyes. "What?" "It's where he's been broadcasting from," Oracle explains, her voice shaky. "I found a pattern in the feeds, a glitch that led me to it." The Justice League exchanges determined looks. They're going to get Selina back, even if it's just to bring her justice. "We leave now then." Bruce growls donning his bat suit, his eyes never leaving Selina's lifeless body on the screen. The team moves quickly, each one feeling a newfound urgency. They've lost so much time, so much hope, but maybe, just maybe, they can still bring Selina's body home. They fly to Las Vegas in the Bat-Jet, the tension in the cabin thick enough to cut with a knife. No one speaks as they approach the deserted arena, the only light coming from the flickering neon signs that seem to mock them with their vibrant colors. "Harley, Batwoman, Rosa, and Diana with me." Bruce's voice is cold, hard as steel. The team nods, understanding the gravity of the situation. They suit up and prepare for battle. As they arrive at the arena, the silence is deafening, a stark contrast to the neon lights that flicker like a macabre dance of death. They sneak in, shadows in the night, their hearts pounding in unison with the echo of Selina's last moments. The place is a maze of twisted metal and abandoned props, a testament to the Joker's deranged sense of humor. The stench of decay fills the air, a grim reminder of what they might find. SUMMARY^1: Oracle reveals Selina's location, a Las Vegas arena, prompting Bruce to immediately assemble a team for a rescue mission. The group boards the Bat-Jet, the atmosphere thick with tension and hope. Upon arriving, they find the arena a macabre reflection of the Joker's twisted humor, filled with the stench of decay. Their mission is clear: to retrieve Selina's body and seek vengeance, moving swiftly and silently through the maze-like structure, haunted by the echoes of her suffering. They move swiftly, following the trail of blood that leads them deeper into the arena. There. A small lump in a puddle of blood on the floor. Bruce's heart sinks as he recognizes Selina.. Bruce's heart sinks as he recognizes Selina's form, barely recognizable through the blood and grime. He rushes over, ignoring the danger around them. Kneeling beside her, he gently touches her cheek. "Selina," he whispers, his voice cracking. She's cold, too cold.Nothing... "No Sweetheart, no," He whispers, his eyes filling with tears. He looks around the room, desperation and anger swelling within him. He starts to preform CPR, and he hears a sickening crack. She so frial, he broke her ribs. The others watch, tears in their eyes, as Bruce refuses to give up. But after minutes of trying, it's clear: Selina is gone. The Joker's sick game has claimed another victim. Bruce's shoulders slump, and he lays his head on Selina's chest, sobbing. "I'm sorry," he says, his voice thick with grief. "I'm so sorry" ~twitch~ Everyone's eyes dart up, hope sparking briefly in their hearts. Selina's chest moves ever so slightly, so faint Bruce doen't see it. "Bruce!" Diana says urgently. "Selina's alive!" Bruce's head snaps up, and he sees it: Selina's chest rising and falling, the barest hint of life. Adrenaline surges through him, and he starts CPR again, more gently this time, whispering to her, begging her to fight. SUMMARY^1: Upon reaching Selina in the arena, Bruce is distraught to find her seemingly lifeless body amidst a pool of blood. Despite his initial despair, a faint sign of life is detected. The team's hope is rekindled, and Bruce continues CPR, desperately trying to revive Selina while the others stand by, holding their breath and offering silent support. The discovery that Selina might still be alive adds a new layer of urgency to their mission, and Bruce's love for her fuels his efforts to save her. SUMMARY^2: Oracle leads the Justice League to Selina's location in a deserted Las Vegas arena, where they find her barely alive amidst the Joker's sadistic setup. Bruce's love and hope drive him to perform CPR, while the rest of the team provides silent support, their mission now to save her at any cost. Her breathing become stable enough for her to be alive but not enough to wake up. Harley Quinn gently removes Selina's gag, her eyes filled with a mix of sadness and anger. "Hold on, Kitty," she murmurs. Selina mumurs something "J---i,mmmmm" "Shhh It's okay Baby,"Rosa whispers, tears streaming down her face as she strokes Selina's hair. Bruce, his face a mask of pain, takes Selina's hand in his own. "We're here," he says, his voice thick with emotion. "We're going to get you out of here." Oracle starts to work on Selina's restraints,she has to tug hard, causeing a painfull moan from Selina, and she starts to bleed. "Fuck." Oracle hisses. The Joker's twisted games have left Selina on the brink of death, but she's alive. That's all that matters now. Bruce gently lifts Selina into his arms, his eyes never leaving hers. She's so light, so fragile. He feels every single one of her bruises and cuts, every bone that's been broken, yet shes still beautiful to him. "Your safe, your safe now," he whispers into her ear, as the others move to follow him out. They navigate the labyrinthine arena with Selina's lifeless body as their beacon of hope, her shallow breaths their only guide. The Joker's laughter still echoes in their minds, a taunting reminder of what they've lost. The air outside is a shock to the system, cold and harsh compared to the stale, metallic scent of the arena. Bruce lays Selina down gently on the Bat-Jet's medical bay, his hands shaking. Oracle starts the medical scans, her eyes darting over the screens as the machines whir to life. The extent of Selina's injuries is overwhelming, but she remains focused, her fingers flying over the controls. Suddenly Selinas heart stops. "W-what the hell?" Oracle stammers, her panic palpable. Bruce takes over, his hands steady and sure as he performs CPR. Each compression feels like it's breaking his heart all over again, but he won't let Selina go without a fight. Finally, Selina's chest jumps, and the monitor beeps steadily. Her pulse is weak, but it's there. "Breathe, Selina," he murmurs, his voice hoarse. "Just breathe." Then it stops again. He lifts her head and tilts it back, pressing his lips to hers, breathing life into her. Her chest rises and falls with each breath he gives her, a rhythm that matches the beating of his own heart. The team watches, hope and fear warring on their faces as they wait for Selina to wake up. But she doesn't. Not yet. Oracle starts to work, her hands shaking as she tries to stabilize Selina. The others stand by, ready to help, but there's nothing they can do but wait and hope. She starts bleeding from her mouth. "We need to get her to the Watchtower, now," Bruce says, his voice firm. They take off, the Bat-Jet slicing through the night sky like a bat out of hell, racing against time. As they fly, Selina's condition worsens. Her breathing becomes erratic, and the blood doesn't stop flowing. Bruce's grip on her tightens, his eyes never leaving her face. "Oracle whats happeneing to her?" SUMMARY^1: Selina is found barely alive in the arena, her injuries severe. Despite their grief and anger, the team acts swiftly, with Harley and Rosa comforting Selina while Oracle works to free her. Bruce, carrying her, leads them out, but Selina's condition remains critical. In the medical bay of the Bat-Jet, Selina's heart stops, only to restart with Bruce's CPR and a kiss of life. Oracle insists on immediate transport to the Watchtower for advanced care. The race against time continues as Selina's condition fluctuates, and the team anxiously awaits her recovery while the Joker's taunts linger in their minds. Oracle's eyes are glued to the monitors, her fingers moving rapidly. "She's in shock, her organs are failing," she says, her voice tight with anxiety. Selina's body jerks and convulses in Bruce's arms as she fights for air. "Come on Kitten," He mummurs, pressing his lips to her forehead, "Stay with me." But Selina's heart stops again. Bruce's world goes white with rage and fear. Oracle takes over, delivering a shock to Selina's heart with the defibrillator. The jolt sends Selina's body arching off the gurney, and the monitor shows not a flicker of life. Bruce's breath catches in his throat, his eyes never leaving Selina's face. "Again," he orders through gritted teeth, his voice laced with desperation. Oracle nods, her own fear barely concealed. She charges the paddles and delivers another shock. Selina's body jolts, but the monitor remains flat. "We're losing her, Bruce," she says, her voice trembling. Bruce's eyes are filled with a mix of anger and desperation. He can't lose Selina, not now, not after all she's been through. He takes the paddles from Oracle, his grip tightening around them. "One more time," he says, his voice a low growl. The room holds its breath as Bruce places the paddles on Selina's chest and delivers the shock himself. The smell of burning flesh fills the cabin, making everyone flinch, but still nothing. "No," he whispers, his voice barely audible. He does it again, his eyes never leaving hers. nothing.... SUMMARY^1: Selina's critical condition persists on the flight to the Watchtower, with her heart stopping multiple times. Despite the team's frantic efforts, she remains unresponsive. Bruce takes charge, delivering shocks himself in a desperate attempt to revive her. Each failed attempt deepens the dread in the cabin, as they all fear Selina may not survive the Joker's torment. Oracle's voice cracks with urgency, and Bruce's determination is palpable, but Selina's condition does not improve. The once hopeful escape has turned into a grim race to save Selina's life. SUMMARY^2: The Justice League finds Selina critically injured in the Las Vegas arena and rushes her to the Watchtower for medical care. Despite Bruce's persistent CPR and the team's support, Selina's condition remains dire, with her heart stopping and restarting multiple times during the tense flight. SUMMARY^3: The Joker's sadistic games with Selina reach new heights, pushing the Justice League to the brink of collapse. Oracle, emotionally overwhelmed, steps down. The team remains committed to rescuing Selina, despite their grief. Using a new lead, they locate Selina in a deserted Las Vegas arena, where she is barely alive. The League, driven by hope and anger, works to save her, with Bruce performing CPR during a tense evacuation to the Watchtower for medical treatment. Selina's condition is critical, her heart stopping and starting multiple times, reflecting the gravity of the situation. Bruce slams the paddles down again, the sound of electricity crackling through the air. This time, Selina's chest jumps and the flatline on the monitor morphs into a wobbly wave. It's faint, but it's there. A pulse. A sign of life. "Selina," he whispers, his voice thick with emotion. "You're not leaving me." Her eyelids flutter, but she doesn't open them. He can see the pain etched into every line of her face, the result of months of torture. Superman takes the controls, his own eyes wet, as the Bat-Jet streaks through the night, the wind outside screaming past them like a mournful ghost. They arrive at the Watchtower, and the medical bay doors open to reveal a team of doctors and nurses, all in League uniforms, ready to help. They rush Selina out of the jet, and Bruce follows closely behind, his heart in his throat. He watches as they work tirelessly to save her, each movement precise and urgent. Days turn into weeks as Selina fights for her life. Bruce never leaves her side, holding her hand, whispering to her, willing her to come back to him. The rest of the Justice League visits, offering their support, their own grief a constant undercurrent in their interactions. One night, Selina's hand twitches in his grasp. Bruce's heart leaps, and he calls for the doctor on duty. They rush in, checking her vitals, and after a tense moment, confirm that she's regained consciousness. Her eyes flutter open, and she looks up at him, a mix of fear and confusion clouding her gaze. "jlj---" SUMMARY^1: Selina finally shows a glimmer of life with a pulse appearing on the monitor. The team's hope is rekindled as they rush her to the Watchtower's medical bay. For weeks, Bruce remains steadfast at her side, refusing to leave. The Justice League supports him in shifts. One pivotal moment comes when Selina regains consciousness, her hand moving in his grip. Bruce calls for the doctor, and they confirm she's alive. Selina's eyes open, revealing a turmoil of fear and confusion, and she attempts to speak, offering a hopeful sign of recovery amidst the tragedy. "It's okay, it's me," Bruce soothes, his voice cracking. "You're safe." Selina's eyes focus on him, and she screams. The sound pierces the air, a raw wail of agony that makes everyone's skin crawl. Bruce's heart feels like it's being ripped out of his chest, but he doesn't move, just holds her hand tighter. "Selina," he says, his voice steady despite the turmoil inside him. "It's Bruce. You're safe now." But she doesn't seem to recognize him, her eyes darting around the room in a panic. Rosa steps forward, her own eyes brimming with tears. "It's okay, Sweetheart-" Selina's scream cuts her off, and she starts to thrash, trying to pull away from everyone. The medical staff moves in, trying to calm her down, but she's too far gone. "No, no, no," she sobs, her voice hoarse from months of abuse. "Please, no more." Bruce's heart shatters into a million pieces as he watches Selina relive her trauma. He's powerless to help her now, just like he was when he couldn't save her from the Joker. "Don't give her aany sedative's." Oracles instructs the doctor. The doctor nods, and they step back, giving Selina space. Selina continues to scream, her eyes wild with terror, not recognizing the faces around her. Bruce feels his world crumbling around him, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles are white. He's failed her, failed to protect her from this monster. "Selina, it's me," he repeats, his voice strained. "Bruce." SUMMARY^1: Selina's initial moments of consciousness are fraught with fear and pain as she screams in terror, not recognizing her surroundings or Bruce. Despite everyone's efforts to comfort her, her trauma is too intense, and she resists their touch. Oracle advises against sedatives, and the medical staff respects Selina's need for space. Bruce is devastated, feeling guilty and powerless as he witnesses Selina's anguish, a stark reminder of his inability to protect her from the Joker's wrath. Her distress is a heartbreaking reflection of the psychological torment she has suffered. SUMMARY^2: Selina's condition stabilizes at the Watchtower, with Bruce at her side. Her eventual regaining of consciousness brings moments of hope, but her traumatized state leads to fear and confusion, causing her to react violently to her surroundings and those trying to comfort her, highlighting the deep psychological wounds the Joker has inflicted. Selina still doesn't seem to regocnise him, but her screams die down to whimpers. She's exhausted, her body too weak to fight anymore. The doctors move in, gently restraining her, their eyes filled with compassion and professional detachment. Bruce steps back, watching as they work, feeling like he's lost her all over again. The Joker's games have left her broken, a shell of the woman he loves. He turns away, unable to bear the sight of her in so much pain. Oracle moves to his side, her eyes filled with tears she refuses to shed. "We'll get him, Bat's," she says, her voice firm. "We'll make him pay for this." Bruce nods, his jaw clenched. "We will," he murmurs. "But first, we have to get Selina through this." The days pass in a blur of medical procedures and painful rehabilitation. Selina's body is a map of agony, each scar and bruise a silent scream of the horror she's endured. Rosa comes in to see Selina every day, her heart breaking anew with each visit. But the very moment she touches Selina's hand, Selina starts to scream again. Oracles decides to see something, she touches Selina's leg gently. Selina's eyes flash with fear and before she screams Oracle tells a doctor omething, the doctor nods. Oracle holds up a glowstick, one of the very things the oker raped her with. Selina's reaction is immediate, her body going rigid as she tries to pull away. "No," she whispers, her voice barely audible. "No, please." "No sedative." Oracle whispers to the doctor. SUMMARY^1: The medical staff carefully attend to Selina, whose traumatized state causes her to react violently to their touch. Bruce, overwhelmed with guilt, watches from afar. Oracle remains by Selina's side, her determination to capture the Joker unwavering. Upon noticing Selina's reaction to the glowstick, Oracle orders no sedatives. This clue into Selina's trauma indicates that the Joker used such an innocuous object as a tool of rape and terror. The Justice League's commitment to Selina's recovery and the promise of vengeance against the Joker is stronger than ever, despite the emotional turmoil each member faces. Oracle sighs heavily, her heart breaking for Selina. "It's a trigger," she tells Bruce, her voice low and sad. "Anything that reminds her of him sets her off.I think-" Before she can finish her sentence, Selina's eyes snap to her, and she starts to scream again, her body convulsing against the restraint. "No, no, no!" Oracle quickly drops the glowstick, and the room falls silent, except for Selina's muffled sobs. The doctor nods solemnly, understanding the gravity of the situation. "We'll have to be careful," he says. "We're dealing with severe PTSD." Bruce nods, his jaw set. He's seen this before, but never in someone he loves so much. He sits by Selina's side, stroking her hair gently, trying to soothe her. "It's okay," he whispers. "You're safe. We're going to get through this." Oracle notices something about Selinas eyes, and shines a light in them. "Selina Sweetheart can you look at me?" Selina's eyes dart around the room, and she flinches when the light hits them. Oracle holds up 3 fingers. "How many fingers am I holding up?" Selinas hand shakes as she reaches up to touch Oracles fingers "D-Dos?" Oracle shakes her head sadly, and whispers to Rosa "She's speaking spainish. But I don't think she can see us clearly." "What do you mean?" "I mean, she's in a state of severe trauma, her mind might be trying to protect her by switching languages, and her vision could be impaired from the torture, I don't know." Oracle's voice is filled with concern. SUMMARY^1: Selina's PTSD manifests in severe reactions to stimuli associated with the Joker, such as the glowstick. The doctor confirms her condition and suggests extreme care in treatment. Oracle and Bruce work to calm Selina, who begins to speak in Spanish and exhibits potential vision impairment, likely due to the trauma she faced. The complexity of Selina's recovery becomes clear, as her mind attempts to shield her from the horror of her ordeal through disassociative language and altered perceptions. The Justice League's challenge is no longer just finding her but helping her heal from deep psychological wounds. SUMMARY^2: Selina's traumatized responses to stimuli reveal the extent of her psychological torment, and the Justice League is informed of her condition by the doctor. Her use of Spanish and potential vision impairment are understood as defensive mechanisms. The group's focus shifts to her mental and emotional healing, emphasizing the depth of her recovery challenge. The doctor nods and starts to check Selina's eyes with a pen light. "Selina, can you follow the light for me?" But Selina's eyes are vacant, staring through them rather than at them. Her breathing is shallow, and her grip on reality seems tenuous. Bruce squeezes her hand. "You're okay," he whispers, his voice a balm to her frayed nerves. "You're safe." The doctor frowns, making some notes. "We need to get her into therapy as soon as she's stable." "She can't....." Oracle mummurs looking into Selinas mouth "She temporairily mute" Bruce's stomach drops. "What? Why?" Oracle nods grimly. "The Joker did something to her vocal cords. She can't scream or talk anymore without causing herself pain." Selina's eyes are wide with fear, and she starts to shake her head, trying to convey something. "It's okay, Selina," Bruce whispers, his voice breaking. "We're going to f--" Selina's eyes widen, and she shakes her head frantically.The she starts struggling to breathe, her chest heaving. Then she spits up her own blood. "Oracle whats happening?" Bruce asks. Oracle's eyes never leave Selina's monitors. "Her body is shutting down," she says, her voice trembling. "We need to get her to surgery." SUMMARY^1: The doctor identifies Selina's traumatic state and recommends immediate therapy. However, Oracle discovers Selina is temporarily mute due to the Joker's damage to her vocal cords. This revelation causes Selina to panic, leading to her body shutting down. Her desperate state prompts the doctor to order emergency surgery, highlighting the severity of her condition and the urgency of her care. The text underscores the depth of Selina's suffering and the dire consequences of the Joker's actions on her physical and psychological health. The medical staff moves with urgency, wheeling Selina out of the room. Bruce follows, his eyes never leaving her. The surgery is a blur of white coats and cold steel, the sound of beeping machines and the frantic whispers of the medical staff. "~~Have you ever seen something so severe?" "~~She should be dead by now~~" "~~What did he do to her?" The questions hang in the air like a thick fog, but Bruce doesn't dare to voice them. He's afraid of the answers. In the waiting room, the Justice League sits in silence. Harley holds a trembling hand over her mouth, her eyes wide with fear. Diana's fists are clenched, her knuckles white. Even Batwoman, usually so stoic, looks on the verge of tears. Only Oracle remains calm, her eyes on the monitors, watching Selina's vital signs with a fierce determination. Selina's heart stops again, and the room is plunged into chaos. Bruce's world narrows to the rhythmic beep of the machines, each one a painful reminder of how close she is to slipping away from him. "No," he says through gritted teeth, his voice a low growl of anguish. "You can't do this to me." The doctor's move swiftly, pushing Bruce aside to work on Selina. They're a blur of action, but all he sees is her still, lifeless body. He feels like he's drowning, the weight of his failure pressing down on him. Oracle's voice cuts through the chaos, sharp and commanding. "Clear!" she says, and the room goes silent. Bruce watches as the doctor administers a shock to Selina's heart. Nothing. SUMMARY^1: Selina is rushed into surgery with Bruce closely following. The Justice League waits anxiously, reflecting the gravity of the situation. Oracle remains composed amidst the chaos, monitoring Selina's condition. Selina's heart stops once more, and the room goes still. Oracle's calmness contrasts with the fear and panic, as she takes charge with medical instructions. The surgery is a stark reminder of the severity of Selina's injuries and the emotional toll it takes on everyone involved, especially Bruce, who feels the weight of his failure to protect her. SUMMARY^2: Selina's trauma is compounded when it's revealed her vocal cords were damaged by the Joker, causing her to become mute and leading to a panic-induced heart failure. An emergency surgery is performed, and the gravity of her condition is underscored, highlighting the emotional toll on the Justice League, particularly Bruce, who feels intense guilt for not protecting her. Oracle's leadership during the crisis exemplifies her strength and professionalism. SUMMARY^3: Selina regains consciousness at the Watchtower but exhibits traumatic responses to her surroundings and caretakers. The doctor informs the League of her psychological state, including muted speech due to damaged vocal cords, which induces a heart failure. An emergency surgery is performed, showcasing Oracle's leadership. The Justice League confronts the reality of Selina's trauma and the complexity of her recovery, especially Bruce, who is consumed by guilt. SUMMARY^4: Oracle overwhelmed, Selina found in a Las Vegas arena on the brink of death. The League saves her, but her traumatic condition shows severe psychological damage, including muted speech. An emergency surgery is performed at the Watchtower, highlighting Oracle's leadership. Selina's recovery is complex and emotionally taxing, particularly for Bruce, who is filled with guilt. Oracle's eyes meet Bruce's, filled with a fierce determination. "Again," she says, and the doctor complies. Selina's body jumps, but the monitor remains silent. The room is tense, each second feeling like an eternity. Bruce's heart races, his mind a tumult of fear and anger. He can't lose Selina. Not after everything they've been through. "-Clear!" Nothing, shes still. The doctor administers another shock, and Selina's body arches off the table. The silence that follows is deafening. "Come on Selina" Rosa mummurs. Then, a faint beep. The line on the monitor wobbles back to life, a weak but steady pulse. The room collectively exhales, and Bruce's eyes fill with tears. She's alive, but it's clear she's not out of the woods yet. The doctor turns to him, his expression grim. "We need to operate immediately," he says. "Her injuries are severe, and we can't guarantee..." SUMMARY^1: Oracle remains in control, ordering additional shocks to Selina's heart. After a tense silence, Selina shows a faint sign of life, but the doctor warns of severe injuries and the urgent need for surgery. The atmosphere is one of fear and hope as everyone is acutely aware of Selina's precarious condition. Despite her survival, the gravity of her situation is not lost on the team, emphasizing the ongoing battle for her recovery. Bruce nods, his throat tight. "Do whatever it takes," he says, his voice firm. "I trust you." The doctor nods and the team springs into action, rushing Selina into the operating room. Bruce and the others are left in the cold, sterile hallway, their emotions a whirlwind of fear and hope. Superman slams his fist into the wall, the sound echoing through the corridor. "We're going to end him," he says through gritted teeth. "We're going to make him pay for this." Oracle nods, her eyes hard. "We will," she agrees. "But first, we save Selina." The hours tick by, each one feeling like an eternity. Bruce paces the floor, his cape billowing behind him like a dark shadow. His thoughts are a jumble of memories: Selina's laughter, her touch, the way she looked at him when she said 'I do'. Finally, the doctor emerges from the surgery, his scrubs splattered with blood. Bruce rushes to him, his heart in his throat. "Is she okay?" The doctor sighs, his expression unreadable. "We've managed to stabilize her," he says. "But she's lost a lot of blood. She's awake.....but her minset is elsewhere. The Selina you once is dead." The words hit Bruce like a sledgehammer. "What do you mean?" he asks, his voice barely above a whisper. The doctor shakes his head. "The trauma she's endured...it's catastrophic. She's lost her voice, and she doesn't seem to recognize anyone. We're not sure if she ever will." Bruce feels like he's been punched in the gut. He leans against the wall for support, his eyes never leaving Selina's unconscious form. Rosa steps forward, her eyes wet with unshed tears. "What can we do?" she asks. The doctor looks at them all, his eyes weary. "Nothing..." SUMMARY^1: The surgery begins with a sense of urgency and determination, as Bruce gives the go-ahead. The doctor informs them that Selina's condition remains critical post-surgery, having lost a significant amount of blood. The trauma has rendered her mute and unable to recognize anyone, suggesting a profound psychological impact. The doctor's prognosis is bleak, leaving the group devastated and questioning Selina's future. This reinforces the gravity of Selina's condition and the depth of the tragedy that has struck the team. Bruce and Diana walk into the room, and Selina is awake staring at the wall. Her eyes are empty, void of the fire and life that once danced within them. Diana swallows hard, the weight of the doctor's words heavy on her heart. She approaches Selina's bedside, her hand reaching out to gently touch Selina's cheek. "Selina," she whispers, her voice filled with pain. "Do you know us?" Selina's eyes flit to Diana, but there's no recognition, only fear. She turns her head away, whimpering. Bruce clenches his fists, his body coiled with rage and despair. "We'll get you through this," he murmurs, his voice hoarse. "I promise." Days stretch into weeks as Selina's physical wounds slowly begin to heal, but the emotional scars run deep. She's withdrawn, often curling into a ball, her eyes vacant, lost in a world of pain no one else can reach. Bruce sits by her side, speaking to her in hushed tones, trying to coax her back to reality. The rest of the Justice League visits when they can, each one offering their support in their own way, but Selina seems trapped in her own personal hell. She often stares at her robotic ring finger where her wedding ring should be, The Joker had chopped off both of her ring fingers. SUMMARY^1: Selina shows no recognition of her friends, including Bruce and Diana, after waking from her coma. Her fear and withdrawal indicate severe emotional trauma. Despite Bruce's constant presence and the Justice League's support, Selina seems trapped in a world of pain, staring at her mutilated hand as a stark reminder of the Joker's cruelty. The text emphasizes Selina's isolation and the League's shared grief and commitment to her recovery. SUMMARY^2: Selina survives surgery but remains mute and unresponsive, not recognizing even her closest friends. The doctor's bleak prognosis underscores the severity of her trauma. Her isolation and the team's grief are palpable as they witness Selina's emotional withdrawal, staring at her injured hand - a symbol of the Joker's cruelty. The gravity of the situation is reinforced, emphasizing the long road ahead for Selina and her supporters. Rosa brings in her favorite flowers, hoping the sweet scent will spark a memory. Harley tells her jokes, hoping to elicit a ghost of a smile. Diana holds her hand, offering silent strength and comfort. But Selina remains unresponsive, trapped in a prison of her own mind. The doctor's words echo in Bruce's thoughts: "The Selina you once knew is dead." BUt he refuses to accept it. Turns out Selina is 10% blind in both eyes, the doctor informs them, another cruel souvenir from the Joker's twisted games. She has severe PTSD, Mental breakdowns,pnick attacks. Rosa try's to get Selina to eat, but she just pushes the food away. Her once fiery spirit seems to have been snuffed out. The only time Selina seems to react is when the Joker's laugh echoes through the room, a recording played by the doctors as part of her therapy to desensitize her to the sound. Bu it only make sher more afriad, and she screams and thrashes around the bed, the pain of his memory all too real. She can't move her left leg, due to the bone being crushed by Bane's boot, and she's lost her hearing in her left ear. Bruce watches her, his heart aching, feeling more helpless than he's ever felt in the face of evil. She's so small. Of corse she was always samll a light, the whole League made fun of her for it...but now she seems so fragile, so breakable. He makes a vow, a promise to himself and to her, that he will never let her down again. He will be her protector, her rock, her everything. But as the days go on, the realization sinks in that Selina may never be the same. The Joker has left his mark, a permanent scar on her soul. The Justice League, once a tight-knit group, starts to fracture under the weight of their failure. Blame is thrown around, accusations made in the heat of despair. Bruce feels the distance growing between them, but he can't focus on that now. Selina's mental state deteriorates further. She's lost in a sea of trauma, and no one can reach her. The doctor's recommend a new therapist, one who specializes in severe PTSD cases. Her name is Dr. Leslie Thompkins, and she's known for her unorthodox methods. Bruce is desperate, willing to try anything, so he brings Selina to her office. The room is dimly lit, the air thick with the scent of incense. Dr. Thompkins is a small, kind-faced woman with a gentle voice. She takes Selina's hand and looks into her eyes, seeing the terror and pain hidden within, The moment she touches her Selina screams and kicks her. SUMMARY^1: Selina's traumatic state continues, with her being mostly unresponsive and exhibiting severe PTSD symptoms. Despite the League's efforts to support her, they struggle with their own feelings of failure. Bruce brings Selina to Dr. Leslie Thompkins, a therapist with a reputation for handling extreme cases.

The fractures within the Justice League reflect the broader impact of Selina's ordeal on their dynamics. The doctor's calm demeanor never wavers. "It's okay," she says soothingly. "I'm here to help you." Selina's eyes dart around the room, searching for an escape, her breath coming in ragged gasps. "Bruce," Dr. Thompkins says, her gaze never leaving Selina's. "Could you give us a moment?" Bruce nods, his heart heavy, and steps outside, leaving Selina in the therapist's care. The sessions are a disaster. Selina screams and fights, the Joker's laughter echoing in her mind, driving her further into her nightmare. "Get away from me!" she shrieks, her eyes wild with fear. Dr. Thompkins' voice is firm but gentle. "Selina, it's--" But Selina doesn't hear her. She's back in the arena, the Joker's twisted smile taunting her. Oracle watches the sessions through the one-way glass, her heart breaking for Selina. She's lost so much, and it's clear the road to recovery will be long and painful. The League's frustration and anger boil over. They argue, pointing fingers at each other for their failure to save Selina sooner. Leslie Tompkins try's her best with Selina, but even she's at a loss. Selina fights and even bit her when she tried to get to close. SUMMARY^1: Dr. Thompkins attempts to treat Selina's trauma, but Selina reacts with fear and aggression, unable to differentiate reality from her traumatic memories. Oracle observes the sessions with a heavy heart, recognizing the immensity of Selina's struggle. The Justice League's internal conflict intensifies, with accusations flying as they grapple with their failure to prevent Selina's suffering. The text underscores the challenges Selina faces and the strain on the team's unity. SUMMARY^2: Selina, unresponsive and suffering from severe PTSD, is brought to Dr. Leslie Thompkins. Her fear and aggression in therapy underscore her deep trauma, and the League's internal strife reflects the broader impact of her ordeal on their cohesion. Oracle's observation of Selina's therapy sessions reveals the gravity of her condition and the toll on the team's morale. Bruce can't take it anymore. He storms into the room, scooping Selina into his arms. "It's okay, I got you," he whispers, his voice shaking. "You're safe." Her eyes meet his, and for a brief moment, she seems to recognize him. But the moment passes, and she's lost again, screaming and crying in his arms. The doctor's face is a mask of professional calm, but Bruce can see the sadness in her eyes. "We need to give her time," she says gently. "This is going to be a long journey." One night as Selina cries herself to sleep, she cries out Bruces name. Shocking everyone in the room. They all stare at each other. Could it be a break through? Bruce's eyes fill with hope. "Selina?" he says tentatively, reaching out to touch her. But she pulls away, her eyes wide with fear. Oracle, who had been silently observing from the corner, steps forward. "Let's try something," she says, her voice firm. "Bruce, I need you to trust me." Her eyes are filled with a determination that Bruce recognizes. It's the same look she had when they were trying to track Selina down. He nods, hope flickering in his chest. Oracle leads them to a quiet, secluded part of the Watchtower, far from the prying eyes of the others. "We need to rebuild her trust," she explains. "From the ground up." SUMMARY^1: In a moment of desperation, Bruce interrupts Selina's therapy session, offering comfort but failing to fully break through her fear. Oracle suggests a new approach, aiming to rebuild Selina's shattered trust. This shift in strategy introduces a glimmer of hope amidst the ongoing despair and highlights the gravity of Selina's psychological condition. The Justice League's commitment to Selina's recovery is reaffirmed, despite the overwhelming challenges they face. The next few weeks are a rollercoaster of emotions. Selina has moments of lucidity where she seems to recognize Bruce, but they are fleeting. Most of the time, she's lost in a world of fear and pain, lashing out at anyone who gets too close. But Bruce is persistent, refusing to give up. He spends every waking moment with her, talking to her, holding her, trying to reconnect with the woman he loves. Oracle's plan is simple but effective. They start with basic trust exercises, like feeding Selina with a spoon, or helping her to stand without causing panic. Selina can't walk, her legs were beaten so bad it crushed her spine. She can't talk without causing herself agony. She sometime can't brethe on her own, so Bruce has to help her with a breathing mask and when that doesn't work he just resorts to breating for her. Rosa, Harley, and Diana take turns sitting with Selina, trying to offer comfort in their own way. Even Batwoman, who has always been cold towards Selina, shows a side of compassion that surprises everyone. One night Selina just stops as Rosa is talking to her and mummurs "You were pregant....Wheres your baby?" SUMMARY^1: Selina's recovery progresses with moments of recognition towards Bruce, but she remains entangled in fear and pain. The Justice League, particularly Oracle, adopts a patient, step-by-step approach to rebuild Selina's trust. The text reveals Selina's severe physical injuries, including a damaged spine, and introduces moments of empathy among the team members, particularly Batwoman, indicating a potential shift in dynamics as they collectively support Selina's healing process. Rosa looks down, tears in her eyes. "I had a miscarrige..." "It...s....all my fault." She whipsers letting go of Rosa's hand and hugging herself crying. Rosa moves to comfort her but starts crying herself, she walks out. "It's not your fault Selina" Batwoman says, taking Rosa's place. "None of this is your fault." Selina's eyes are filled with guilt and despair, and she shakes her head vigorously. "She lost her baby becuase of me, becuase she was looking for me..." She cries. Batwoman wipes away a tear. "No, she lost her baby because the Joker is a monster, and she was doing her job." The room is silent except for Selina's sobs, which seem to build as her guilt presses harder on her, to the point she can barely breathe. Batwoman tries to comfort Selina, her voice a gentle whisper in the quiet room. "Selina, you need to understand, none of this is your faul-" "Stop lying, all of this is my fault!" Selina screams, her voice raw and strained. "You wouldn't have lost the baby if I weren't-" Batwoman takes Selina face in her hands, forcing her to look at her. "Listen to me, Selina," she says firmly. "I need you to shut up and listen. What happened to you is not your fault. It's the Joker's doing. And if anyone is to blame for the baby, it's the Joker. You-" "She lost her baby because of me, You all lost something because of me," Selina whispers, her voice barely audible over her sobs. Batwoman's grip tightens, her voice stern. "No, Selina. We lost something because the Joker is a monster. Because he enjoys hurting people. Because he enjoys breaking us apart. Bu-" "Will you just shut up. I know its my fault." Selina's sobs turn into screams, her eyes squeezed shut as if trying to block out the reality. Kate watches as Selina's mental state continues to deteriorate, her heart breaking with each passing second. She knows Selina's words aren't true, but the guilt and trauma are too deep-rooted. SUMMARY^1: Selina's emotional state continues to deteriorate as she blames herself for Rosa's miscarriage, which occurred during the search for her. Despite Batwoman's firm reassurances, Selina is overwhelmed by guilt and trauma. This confrontation underscores Selina's internal struggle and the long-term psychological impact of her ordeal, while also highlighting the supportive role the Justice League plays in her healing process. SUMMARY^2: Bruce's intervention in Selina's therapy fails to fully comfort her, illustrating her severe trauma. Oracle proposes a new approach focusing on trust, which yields a glimmer of hope. Selina's progress includes moments of recognition with Bruce, but she remains fearful and in pain. Her emotional decline is exacerbated by self-blame for Rosa's miscarriage, emphasizing the psychological depth of her trauma. The Justice League's collective commitment to her recovery is highlighted, particularly Batwoman's empathy, signifying a potential shift in team dynamics and their unwavering support for Selina's healing journey. SUMMARY^3: Selina's post-surgery condition is grim, as she remains mute and unresponsive. The severity of her PTSD is evident in her fear and aggression during therapy. Oracle's observation and Batwoman's empathy offer a new approach focusing on trust. Despite moments of recognition with Bruce, Selina is tormented by guilt over Rosa's miscarriage, illustrating the psychological depth of her trauma and the League's collective commitment to her recovery. Days turn into weeks, and the trust exercises continue. But Selina instead of getting better, she slowly withdraws more into herself. The Joker's influence is like a disease, spreading through her mind, leaving doubt and despair in its wake. Bruce is at his wit's end, his own guilt eating away at him like a cancer. He watches as Selina pushes away the food trays, unable to eat, her body growing weaker. They try and try and try, but she just doesn't get better. The therapy sessions with Dr. Thompkins become more frequent and intense. She uses various methods, trying to break through Selina's walls. One session, she brings in a mirror. "Look at yourself, Selina," she says softly. "You're still here." But Selina just screams and throws the mirror against the wall, shattering it into a hundred pieces, the shards reflecting the shattered look in her eyes. The doctor's face is filled with sadness, but she doesn't give up. "We'll try something else," she says, her voice calm despite the chaos. SUMMARY^1: Selina's condition worsens as she withdraws into herself and refuses to eat, while the trust exercises fail to improve her state. Dr. Thompkins' therapy sessions intensify, using various methods to combat the Joker's psychological grip, but Selina's trauma manifests in destructive behavior, exemplified by her reaction to the mirror exercise. The doctor's persistence reflects the ongoing challenge of Selina's recovery and the commitment of her support system. Bruce is outside the room, listening, his heart breaking. He can't stand the thought of Selina being in pain, but he knows he has to let her go through this. He leans against the wall, his head in his hands. "How much more can she take?" he wonders aloud. Batwoman steps out, her eyes red from crying. "We need to do something," she says. "She's fading." Harley try's to busy Selina by giving her a drawing pad, she hasn't talked in weeks. Ever since she found out about Rosas baby she hasn't spoken, she hasn't even been able to look Rosa in the eye. Selina just stares at her prosthetic finger, the cold metal a stark reminder of everything she's lost. The silence in the room is broken only by her ragged breathing, a stark contrast to the chaotic thoughts racing through her mind. Instead Selina covers her ears and starts rocking herself. Alfred gently takes Selinas hands away from her ears. "Master Bruce is worried about you, Miss Selina. He loves you s-" "The Joker said he loves Diana." she mumurs. "He doesn't love me...Nobody does" SUMMARY^1: Selina's withdrawal deepens, causing concern among the Justice League, particularly Bruce and Batwoman. Harley attempts to engage Selina with a drawing pad, but Selina remains fixated on her trauma. Alfred's gentle intervention reveals Selina's distorted beliefs stemming from the Joker's manipulation, suggesting a deepening of her PTSD and a significant challenge in rebuilding her self-worth and relationships. Bruce's eyes widen with horror as he hears Selina's words, and he rushes into the room. "Selina, no," he says, his voice thick with emotion. "You're wrong. I love you. We all love you." Selina's eyes meet his, but there's no warmth, no recognition. Just a cold, dead stare. "You're lying," she whispers. "Everyone's lying." The doctor and Alfred exchange a look of concern. This isn't the first time Selina has talked about the Joker's taunts. It's clear his words have burrowed deep into her psyche, festering like an infection. The League gathers in the conference room, the tension palpable. They know Selina's condition is worsening, and they need to find a way to reach her before it's too late. "We can't just sit here and watch her die," Bruce says, slamming his fist on the table. "We need to get the Joker." "And do what?" Superman asks, his voice strained. SUMMARY^1: Bruce's desperate attempt to reassure Selina of his love is met with accusations, showcasing the depth of her trauma. The Justice League assembles in concern, recognizing the urgency of Selina's deteriorating mental state. Bruce suggests confronting the Joker as a potential solution to her pain, prompting a heated discussion among the team about the ethical implications and practicality of such an action. Superman's skepticism highlights the gravity of the decision. SUMMARY^2: Selina's withdrawal and destructive behavior in therapy exemplify the challenge of her recovery. Dr. Thompkins' methods intensify, but Selina remains trapped in traumatic memories. The Justice League's concern grows, and a potential breakthrough is offered through Harley's attempt at connection. Alfred's intervention reveals Selina's distorted beliefs, and Bruce's proposal to confront the Joker for Selina's sake sparks debate among the team, emphasizing the gravity of their situation and the complexity of their decision-making. Superman's skepticism underscores the serious ethical considerations of their proposed course of action. Wonder Woman interjects, "We need a plan, not just revenge." "We can't just ignore what he's done to her," Batwoman says, her voice hard. "We're not," Flash argues. "We're trying to get her better." "Better?" Harley snaps. "She's broken!" "Yeah but she's still Selina," Nightwing yells. "I'm not saying she's not," Batwoman says, her voice rising. "But we can't let our emotions cloud our judgment." "Our emotions are what make us human," Diana counters. "And Selina is one of us." "So you think that by just sitting around here, playing doctor, we're going to fix her?" Batwoman says, her voice laced with accusation. "We might not be able to bring her back to us,!" Superman yells, "But we can damn sure make sure the Joker never does this to anyone else!" "Well thats to fucking bad, because I can't just sit here and do nothing," Harley says, her voice shaking with rage. "She isn't ever going to get better. So why do we keep pretending?" The room falls silent, the weight of Harley's words hanging in the air. The argument continues, the room a cacophony of anger and fear. Each member of the Justice League has their own idea of how to deal with Selina's condition, each one more desperate than the last. Selina hearing the yelling, gets scared and starts to cry quietly. SUMMARY^1: The Justice League's debate escalates, highlighting the division in their approach to Selina's trauma. While some advocate for justice against the Joker, others emphasize Selina's humanity and the need for a careful, therapeutic approach. The emotional intensity culminates in Harley's outburst, questioning the effectiveness of their current strategies. Selina, overhearing the commotion, is further distressed, emphasizing the delicate nature of her mental state and the urgency of finding a solution. Bruce's eyes flash with anger as he slams his hand down on the table. "We're not going to fix her by fighting each other!" "Maybe we're not the ones who can fix her," Batwoman says, her voice quiet but firm. "But we can sure as hell stop the one who broke her." "But he's already broken her beyond repair?" Aquaman says. Flash jumps to his feet, his fists clenched. "Don't say that about Selina!" "I'm just being realistic, Wally," Batwoman snaps. "We can't change what happened to her, but we can stop him from doing it again." "Realistic?!" Harley screams, her eyes wild. "You think I'm going to sit here and be realistic? The Joker's got her in his head and you wanna talk about being realistic?" Meanwhile Selina is shaking and crying, her breath coming in hitches. SUMMARY^1: The team's heated discussion escalates, with Bruce attempting to refocus the group on Selina's immediate needs.

Bruce's eyes are filled with a mix of anger and desperation as he looks around the room. "We're her family," he says, his voice low and dangerous. "And we will do whatever it takes to save her." "But what if she doesn't want to be saved?" Diana asks, her voice gentle but firm. " "What the hell are you trying to say Diana?" Rosa snaps, her own fear and pain spilling over. "I'm saying we need to consider her wishes," Diana replies calmly, "if she's ever going to get better." "Her wishes?" Harley spits out. "You think she wishes for any of this?" "We don't know what she wishes," Bruce says, his jaw clenched. "Because she can't tell us. But in the most sense..no she doesn't Want this at all." "And who fault is that? Batwoman growls "If maybe you paid more attention to her Bruce, maybe she wouldn't be in this situation." Bruce is quiet. Its true. He had always pushed her away. But he never thought it would come to this. The room falls into a tense silence as each member of the team grapples with their own guilt and fear. Selina's whimpers slowly become relevant to Bruce, he stands up and leaves the room. He couldn't bare to hear his friends argue over her like she was just another mission. He walks into her room, and she looks up at him with those empty eyes. "Are you all mad at me?" SUMMARY^1: The Justice League faces accusations of neglect from Batwoman, bringing Bruce's guilt to the forefront. Despite their passionate disagreements on Selina's recovery, Diana advocates for respecting Selina's unspoken wishes. The narrative shifts to Selina's perspective, illustrating her perception of the situation and her fear that she's a burden to her team, which leads Bruce to visit her, confronting his own guilt and the challenge of connecting with her amidst her trauma. SUMMARY^2: The Justice League's internal debate on Selina's recovery escalates, revealing varying approaches and emotional turmoil. Harley's outburst emphasizes Selina's fragility, while Batwoman argues for confronting the Joker. The group's conflict underscores their personal struggles and desire for justice.

Alfred's insights into Selina's distorted beliefs and Harley's attempt at connection offer new perspectives. Diana advocates for Selina's feelings, while Bruce grapples with his guilt during a personal visit to Selina, illustrating the team's internal conflict and the emotional weight of Selina's ordeal. Bruce's heart breaks into a million pieces. He sits beside her, taking her hand. "No, Selina. We're mad at the Joker, not you." But Selina shakes her head. "No, you're mad because I'm broken. You're all mad because you can't fix me." He lifts her into his arms, cradling her against his chest. "I know Kitten," he whispers back. Their conversation echoes through the silent corridors of the Watchtower, reaching the ears of the still arguing League members. Their words cut through the anger like a knife, silencing the room. One by one, they file out, each lost in their thoughts about Selina and the Joker's never-ending game. The silence in Selina's room is almost deafening, only the sound of her shallow breaths and Bruce's steady heartbeat filling the space. He rocks her gently, trying to soothe the pain he knows she's feeling. "We're not mad at you, Selina," he whispers. "We're just trying to find a way to make it right." Her body convulses with sobs, and she clings to him like he's her only lifeline in a sea of despair. SUMMARY^1: Bruce's tender interaction with Selina, acknowledging her fears of being seen as broken, permeates the Watchtower, silencing the team's argument. The gravity of Selina's trauma and the depth of her pain are palpable, highlighting the urgency of the situation and the emotional weight on each team member. Their focus shifts from their internal conflict to the shared goal of supporting Selina in her recovery and finding a way to bring the Joker to justice without causing further harm to her. In the conference room, the argument has turned into a shouting match, each hero's voice rising above the others. "We need to capture him," Superman insists. "Make him pay for what he's done." "And what then?" Batwoman asks, her voice cold. "We lock him up again? He'll just escape and do it again." "We can't just let him get away with this," Aquaman argues. "He needs to be stopped." "But how?" The Flash says, his voice quivering with anger. "How do we stop someone who thrives on chaos?" Diana, ever the voice of reason, tries to calm everyone down. "We must focus on Selina," she says firmly. "We cannot allow our anger to cloud our judgment." But the room is filled with a palpable tension, the weight of their collective failure pressing down on them like a leaden blanket. "We're all just sitting here, doing nothing," Harley says, her voice a mix of anger and despair. "While she's up there, suffering." "We're not doing nothing," Bruce says through gritted teeth. "We're trying to help her." The room erupts again, each member shouting over the other, their frustration and helplessness manifesting as accusations and anger. "You don't get it, Bruce," Batwoman says, her voice sharp. "We're not equipped to deal with this kind of trauma. We're not therapists." "Then what are we?" Superman asks, his fists clenched. "We can't just stand by while she's in pain." SUMMARY^1: The Justice League's impassioned debate continues, with Superman advocating for capturing the Joker and making him pay for his crimes against Selina. However, Batwoman's practical perspective points out the futility of incarceration for someone like the Joker. Diana calls for focusing on Selina's well-being, but the League's collective anger and helplessness boil over. Harley expresses the team's frustration, while Bruce defensively insists on their efforts to help Selina, exposing the tension between their desire for justice and the limitations of their superhero identities in addressing deep psychological trauma. SUMMARY^2: Bruce's empathetic conversation with Selina quiets the Justice League's debate. The depth of Selina's pain becomes central, shifting the focus to her well-being rather than immediate revenge. The team grapples with the complexities of justice and the limitations of their superhero roles in healing psychological trauma. Superman and Batwoman present contrasting views on the Joker's fate, and Harley's frustration encapsulates their collective struggle, highlighting the tension between their desire for retribution and the need for a measured approach to Selina's recovery. "We're her family," Diana says, her voice a balm to the harsh tones. "And as her family, we need to support her through this." "How?" Aquaman demands. "We can't even get her to eat, let alone breathe without pain." "That's not our fault," Nightwing says, his voice filled with pain. "We did everything we could to find her." "But we didn't do enough to keep her safe," Batwoman snaps. "We're supposed to be the Justice League. And we failed her." "Maybe the only reason we failed her is because we didn't have her back," Harley says, her voice low. "Maybe we're too busy playing hero to each other that we forgot to be a team for Selina." "We were doing our jobs," Superman says, his voice strained. "We didn't know the Joker was going to do this." "Well, we know now," Flash says, his voice cracking. The argument dissolves into a tense silence, each member of the League aware of their own failings. They're all right, and yet they're all wrong. The Joker had played them all, turning their strengths into weaknesses and their love for Selina into a weapon against her. Bruce looks around the table, his eyes lingering on each of his friends. They're all hurting, all feeling the same guilt and anger that he does. "We can't change the past," he says finally. "But we can decide what we do now." The room is still, all eyes on him. He takes a deep breath. "We find him," he says, his voice hard. "And we end this." Batwoman goes to check on Selina, She's sleeping fitfully, her breaths shallow and quick. Batwoman gently brushes a lock of hair out of her face, her eyes filling with tears. Selina softly opens her eyes and sees the tears. She reaches up and wipes them away. "Are you ok?" Selina whispers, her voice barely audible. Batwoman's throat tightens, "No, I'm not. We're all worried about you." Selina's eyes flicker with fear. "You shouldn't be, youv'e got better things to be doing." Batwoman shakes her head. "No Selina, we're all in this together." "But I'm the reason you're all so upset," Selina says, her voice cracking. "Is Rosa okay?" Batwoman nods. "Physically, yes. Emotionally... she's a mess. We all are." Selina's eyes fill with guilt. "I'm sorry," she whispers. "Don't apologize," Batwoman says, her voice stern. "This isn't your fault. It's the Joker's." "But-" SUMMARY^1: Diana's reminder of their familial bond with Selina shifts the conversation, acknowledging their shared failure to prevent Selina's trauma. Harley's comment hits a nerve, suggesting they were too self-absorbed to protect her effectively. The League recognizes the Joker's manipulation and the need to move forward. Bruce resolves to end this by finding the Joker, and Selina's brief interaction with Batwoman showcases her guilt and the team's unity in her recovery. Selina's concern for Rosa highlights the ripple effects of her ordeal on their personal lives, emphasizing the urgency of confronting the Joker and supporting each other in the process. The doctor enters the room, interrupting them. "We need to talk," she says to Batwoman. "Now." Bruce remains in Selina's room, watching over her like a sentinel. The weight of his failure heavy on his shoulders. The doctor and Batwoman step into the corridor, the gravity of the conversation etched on their faces. "Her condition is worsening," the doctor says. "The trauma is too deep. She's lost so much weight, and her heart...it can't take much more." "What do you mean?" "She's dying, Kate," the doctor says, her voice soft. "We need to prepare for the worst." "I'm sorry...what?" Rosa asks, her face pale. "We can't just sit here and do nothing," Batwoman says, her voice hard. "We have to find a way to help her." "We've tried everything," the doctor says, her voice filled with sadness. "But her mind is...it's just not responding." "But wasn't she getting better?" Batwoman asks. The doctor sighs heavily. "For a while, yes. But the Joker's psychological torment was too much. She's lost all sense of self. And her rectum being raped by so many differnt toools, is causing her pain she can't even express. She's also still open down there, So, she's in constant pain." "What can we do?" Bruce asks, his voice hoarse. The doctor looks at him sympathetically. "We can keep her comfortable, but...Bruce, she's not going to get better." SUMMARY^1: The doctor delivers a grim prognosis on Selina's health, revealing her worsening condition despite previous improvements. She's lost weight and her heart is strained, possibly due to the severe trauma from the Joker's rapes. The doctor's suggestion that Selina is dying sends shockwaves through the team.

The words hit him like a truck, and he stumbles backward, his hand flying to his chest as if to keep his heart from breaking completely. "No," he whispers. "No, there has to be a way." Superman stands up, his eyes flashing. "We can't just let her die. We can't." "There is nothing else you can do," the doctor insists. "We need to accept-" Rosa slams her fist into the wall "NO! You can just sit there and say that like it's okay! She's my sister." "I know and I'm sorry but-" "Don't you dare say you're sorry," Rosa snaps. "You don't know what she went through. You weren't there." The room is a tornado of emotions, each one swirling and colliding. The doctor tries to speak again, but she's drowned out by the storm of voices. The Flash paces the floor, his heart racing as he tries to come up with a plan. "We need to get him," he says, his voice tight. "We need to make him pay for this." "But what good will that do?" Diana asks, her voice calm but her eyes filled with fire. "Selina will still be in pain." "It won't fix her," Aquaman says heavily. "But it will stop him from hurting anyone else." The room erupts again, each member shouting their own thoughts and fears. SUMMARY^1: Bruce is devastated by the doctor's prognosis that Selina may not recover.

The discussion highlights their collective pain and the challenge of balancing justice with Selina's suffering. Batwoman slams her hand on the table. "We're not thinking straight," she yells. "We need to focus on Selina, not the Joker." "How can we do that?" Harley asks, her voice desperate. "She's dying because of him." "We can't change what's happened," the doctor says gently. "But we can be here for her now." "But what about justice?" Superman demands. "Justice will come," Diana says, her eyes flashing. "But right now, we need to heal." "Heal?" Aquaman scoffs. "How can she heal when she's trapped in that hell?".....shes dying." The doctor sighs, her expression weary. "The Joker's done more than just hurt her body," she says. "He's destroyed her spirit." The room falls silent, each member of the Justice League lost in their own thoughts. Selina moans in pain and Bruce's grip tightens around her hand. He turns to the doctor, desperation etched on his face. "Is there nothing we can do?" The doctor sighs, "Bruce, sh is going to die, there's nothing to do" The room explodes into chaos as the Justice League members start arguing among themselves, their voices a cacophony of anger and despair. Batwoman slams her hand on the table. "We can't just give up on her!" she yells. "We have to do something!" "What?" Aquaman demands. "We've tried everything." Selina whimpers at the noise, her eyes opening in pain. SUMMARY^1: The doctor emphasizes Selina's dire mental condition, which has led to her physical decline. Despite the team's desire for justice, Diana insists on prioritizing Selina's healing. The League's disagreement over how to proceed causes tension.

Batwoman's observation of Selina's reaction to their argument underscores the urgent need for a solution that prioritizes Selina's well-being, bringing the gravity of the situation into stark relief. "We can't just sit here," Harley says, her voice shaking. "We have to find a way to get her back." "But what if she doesn't want to come back?" Diana asks gently, her eyes full of compassion. "You don't know that," Nightwing says, his voice full of accusation. "We can't just let her go," Flash insists, his eyes glossy with unshed tears. Selina leans her head close to Bruce and whispers "So, I'm going to die?" Bruce's eyes fill with tears, and he squeezes her hand. He can't answer. "So...yes?" The room goes silent, and Bruce can't look at her. He can't bear to see the acceptance in her eyes. The doctor clears her throat. "We can manage her pain, and we can be here for her. That's all we can do.Unless her body and mind decides to heal. But that doesn't seen like an option." "But we can't just sit here and watch her die," Batwoman insists, her voice breaking. "We're the Justice League. We're supposed to be her protectors." The doctor's eyes are filled with sadness. "I know it's hard to accept, but sometimes, the most loving thing we can do is to let go." Selina's breaths become shallower, and her grip on Bruce's hand tightens. Bruce's eyes are wet with unshed tears as he looks into Selina's eyes, filled with pain and defeat. "No," he whispers. "We won't let you go." The doctor nods sadly. "We'll keep trying, but she's in a very serious condition." SUMMARY^1: Selina's potential to recover is questioned, with Diana expressing doubt and Harley pushing for action. Selina, aware of her fate, confronts Bruce with the reality of her condition. The doctor reinforces Selina's critical state, advising palliative care over aggressive treatments. Despite the bleak outlook, Batwoman remains determined to save Selina, while Bruce clings to hope, promising not to give up on her. The tension between acceptance and hope, and the heavy emotional burden on the characters, is palpable. The League, drained by the conversation, disperses to their quarters, leaving Bruce and Selina in the quiet of her room. Selina's hand feels cold and fragile in Bruce's grasp, a stark reminder of her deteriorating health. Days pass in a blur of pain management and futile attempts to reconnect with Selina. The League's morale plummets as they grapple with their inability to save her. Their missions feel hollow, a mere shadow of their former purpose. Selina's condition remains critical, her body weak from malnourishment and her mind lost in a labyrinth of fear. Bruce is a constant presence by her side, his love for her a silent vigil that speaks louder than words. One night, as Selina's breathing becomes more labored, Batwoman gently brushes her hair back, tears streaming down her face. "We're not giving up," she whispers fiercely. "We're going to get you through this." Selina just looks at the ceiling. In the weeks that follow, the Justice League's efforts to save Selina grow increasingly desperate. They seek out every possible medical treatment and alternative therapy, but she continues to deteriorate. The once vibrant and fierce Catwoman is now a mere shell of her former self. SUMMARY^1: The Justice League is emotionally exhausted as Selina's condition remains unchanged. Bruce's unwavering presence beside Selina exemplifies his love and hope. Despite their desperate search for a cure, Selina remains unresponsive. The narrative underscores the tragic stasis of Selina's health and the profound impact her suffering has on the team, who struggle to find meaning in their ongoing work while she is in pain. The tension within the Watchtower is palpable. Arguments over strategy and ethics have turned into quiet, painful acknowledgements of their powerlessness. Bruce's eyes never stray far from Selina's room, his guilt a constant companion. As Oracle is checking Selina's vitals one night, she notices a slight change. The heart monitor beeps erratically, and Selina's eyes flicker with a glimmer of consciousness. Oracle calls for Dr. Thompkins, who rushes in, her expression hopeful yet cautious. "What is it?" Bruce asks, his voice strained with fear. "Her vitals are improving," Oracle replies, a hint of amazement in her voice. "It's...it's like she's fighting back." Dr. Thompkins nods, a flicker of hope crossing her face. "It's a good sign, but we can't get our hopes up too high. Her body has been through a lot." "What does this mean?" Rosa asks, her voice trembling. "It means she's not giving up," Batwoman says firmly. "And neither are we." The room falls silent again as they watch Selina, her breathing becoming more regular. For the first time in weeks, there's a collective sense of relief. Days turn into weeks, and Selina's condition stabilizes. Slowly, she begins to respond to her environment, showing signs of understanding and, occasionally, recognition. Her eyes, though haunted, no longer hold the vacant stare of someone lost to the world. One evening, Bruce is alone with Selina when she finally speaks. Her voice is barely a whisper, but it's enough to make his heart soar. "Bruce," she says, her eyes locking onto his. "I'm so sorry." He shakes his head, his voice thick with emotion. "Don't you dare apologize," he whispers. "You're here, and that's all that matters." SUMMARY^1: The Justice League experiences a rare moment of optimism when Selina shows signs of recovery, with improved vitals and brief moments of consciousness. Bruce's persistent presence and the team's collective refusal to give up are emphasized. Selina's first words to Bruce are an apology, highlighting the depth of her trauma and guilt, and his response underscores his love and commitment to her. This small victory provides a glimmer of hope amidst their ongoing struggle to support Selina's recovery. Her hand, so frail, reaches out to touch his face. Bruce's eyes widen with hope, his voice cracking as he whispers, "Selina." Her fingers trace the contours of his jaw, the touch sending a jolt of warmth through him. Her parastetic ring finger brushes his cheek. "Don't cry." she whispers, her voice a mere thread of sound. The doctor rushes back in, her eyes widening at the sight of Selina's awakening. She checks Selina's vitals, confirming the miraculous shift. "It's a breakthrough," she says, her voice shaky. "But she's still critical. We need to tread carefully." The room fills with a mix of relief and anxiety as the doctor explains the next steps in Selina's treatment. They must rebuild her strength gradually, and her mental health is equally as important. Selina's eyes dart around the room, confusion and fear etched on her features. She tries to sit up, but her body is too weak, and she collapses against Bruce's chest. Shaking she looks at Batwoman, her gaze pleading. "Please, tell me nobodys hurt because of me." Batwoman's eyes fill with tears, but she nods. "We're all okay, Selina. " But the fear in Selina's eyes doesn't dissipate. She's been through hell, and she knows that the Joker never plays by the rules. Her mind races with the memories of his sadistic games, and she can't shake the feeling that this is just another one of his twisted ploys. She lets Bruce hold her, his embrace a bastion of safety in a world that's been shattered by the Joker's cruelty. Her body relaxes slightly, comforted by his warmth and the steady beat of his heart. But her mind is a tumult of emotions, a cacophony of doubt and pain. Her fingers tighten on his shirt, and she closes her eyes, trying to drown out the horrors that still echo in her head. "You're safe here," he whispers into her hair, his voice a soothing balm. "We're all here for you." The doctor and the League watch from the doorway, their hearts heavy with the weight of Selina's suffering. They've all been through so much, but Selina's plight is the hardest to bear. Rosa steps forward, her voice trembling. "Can I talk to her?" The doctor nods. "But be gentle," she warns. "Her mind is still very fragile." Rosa nods, her eyes never leaving Selina's. She sits down on the bed, her hand reaching out to take Selina's. "Hey, sis," she says softly. Selina's eyes stay on the ground "Hi." The conversation is strained, filled with unspoken words and the weight of the trauma that hangs between them. Selina's voice is a mere whisper, her spirit broken by the months of torment. Rosa tries to keep the conversation light, talking about the mundane things that used to make Selina smile. But Selina's eyes are vacant, lost in the memories of her torture. "I'm sorry," Selina says suddenly, her voice a mere breath. "I'm so sorry for what happened." Rosa's eyes fill with tears. "It's not your fault," she says fiercely. "Never think that." But Selina's guilt is a living, breathing entity in the room, a shadow that seems to grow larger with each passing moment. Selina lays her head on Bruce's chest, listening to his heartbeat, finding comfort in the steady rhythm. It's a stark contrast to the chaos that still ravages her mind. Days turn into weeks, and Selina's physical recovery progresses, but the mental scars remain. She's plagued by nightmares and flashbacks, the Joker's twisted smile a constant presence in her thoughts. The League rallies around her, each member offering their own brand of support. Harley brings her a tray of food, her eyes filled with a strange mix of sadness and anger. "You need to eat," she says gruffly. "You're too skinny." Selina turns away, the thought of food making her stomach churn. Flash sits by her side, his hand resting on her arm, offering silent comfort as she stares into space. Diana brings her a bouquet of flowers, her face a mask of solemnity. Selina stares at the flowers seemingly interested in them. "Do you like the roses?" Diana asks gently, placing the bouquet on the bedside table. Selina just looks at them, her eyes glazed over. Diana touches Selina's hand, and Selina screams, pulling away. The sudden sound echoes through the room, and the Amazonian flinches, her eyes wide with shock and concern. Diana presses a finger to her lips. "Shhh." The doctor rushes in, assessing Selina's condition quickly. "It's okay, Selina," she says calmly. "You're safe." But Selina's mind is trapped in the nightmare of her past, her body reacting instinctively to any touch. Oracle comes in, her eyes filled with worry. "I'll take over," she says gently. The doctor nods, and the room clears out, leaving Selina with Bruce and Barbara. Barbara sits on the edge of the bed, her voice soothing. "It's okay," she repeats, her tone a gentle coo. "You're safe. We're here." Selina's breaths come in hitches, and she clutches at the blanket, her eyes wild. Oracle realizes something with Selina's eyes, and calls in a doctor. "Sh might be a little blind." She mummurs to the doctor, who nods and grabs a flashlight. The doctor checks Selina's pupils, causing Selina to give startled jerks of pain. "Her retinas are damaged," the doctor says gravely. "It's likely permanent." The room fills with a heavy silence as they process the news. Selina's world just got a whole lot darker. Bruce feels rage boil up inside him, but he forces it down, focusing on Selina. "We'll get you through this," he says firmly. "We're not leaving you." The doctor nods. "We're going to start therapy for your PTSD, and we'll work on your vision. There are options." Selina doesn't even seem to understand the gravity of the situation, lost in a haze of pain and fear. She closes her eyes. Oracle gets her a speacial pair of glasses, designed to help her see. It's a small victory in a sea of despair. The days stretch into weeks, and Selina's mental health doesn't really get better, or worse. It's a stalemate. She doesn't seem to be mentaly present when people ar talking to her, Sometimes only Bruce can get through to her. Bruce, with his unwavering love and patience, is Selina's anchor in the storm of her traumatized psyche. He's with her every moment, holding her hand, whispering reassurances into her ear, willing her to come back to them. The Justice League, though dedicated to their mission of protecting the innocent, can't ignore the gaping hole Selina's absence has left in their hearts. They continue their work, but each victory feels hollow without her. One night, Bruce is sitting by Selina's bedside, her hand in his, when she starts to stir restlessly. Her eyes fly open, and she looks around the room in a panic. "Bruce?" she whispers, her voice hoarse from disuse. "Hey sweetie," Bruce says gently, his thumb stroking the back of Selina's hand. "You're safe." Selina begins to whimper and reaches out for him. Bruce's heart breaks anew as he takes her in his arms, her body trembling with fear. "Its okay Baby." Her grip tightens as she cries into his shoulder, her body shaking with sobs that seem to come from the depths of her soul. "Please, Bruce," she cries. "Please. I'll do anything just make it stop." She's begging him, and it's killing him. Bruce bites back his own tears. " Kitten, your safe. I promise." The doctor comes back in, her face a mask of professional calm. "We need to start her therapy," she says. "It's time." Bruce nods, his jaw clenched. "Do it." Selina's therapy is grueling. She screams, she cries, she fights them, but they don't give up. One day as Harley tries to get Selina to talk, Selina starts crying uncontrollably. "I don't want to." "You don't have to," Harley says, her voice surprisingly gentle. Selina relaxes. "But you can talk to me," Bruce says softly, his voice a balm to her soul. "Whenever you're ready." Selina nods, her breathing evening out. She knows she can trust him. The doctor suggests a new form of therapy, one that involves confronting her fears in a controlled environment. It's a risky gamble, but one that could potentially break through the barriers that have kept Selina trapped in her own mind. The team is hesitant, but they know that drastic measures are needed. Diana, with her own experience in healing from trauma, offers to stand by Selina's side throughout the process. "We're in this together," she says firmly. The therapy sessions begin, and Selina is exposed to simulated scenarios that trigger her traumatic memomories. Each time she faces them, she screams and fights, but with Diana and Bruce's support, she doesn't succumb to the darkness. Its a complete mess. Its an utter fail. She screams and claws at the walls, the fear consuming her. One particularly harrowing session, Selina faces a holographic Joker, his cackle echoing through the room. She's lost in the nightmare, her mind replaying every horror he's ever inflicted on her. Her eyes are wild as she lashes out, but instead of attacking, she curls into a ball, sobbing. Diana moves to stand in front of Selina, blocking her view of the hologram. "Look at me," she says firmly. But Selina isn't listening. She's lost in the nightmare, her body wracked with sobs. DIana takes Selina's face in her hands, forcing her to look up, and Selina squeezes her eyes shut. "Pease" she begs. breaking DIana's heart. "Look at me, Selina," Diana repeats, her voice gentle but insistent. "You're not-" "No!" Selina cries, pushing Diana away. "Get away from me please. I wont do anything, I promise." Instead of thinking this way a way to help her Selina thinks it is a way to punish her. Selina is shaking so badly that Bruce has to hold her down to prevent her from harming herself. Her eyes are wide with terror, and she's gasping for breath as the holographic Joker fades away.Eventually she goes into a panick attack. Bruce gently holds her down. "You're safe, Selina," he repeats, his voice steady and calm. "You're safe." Her eyes are squeezed shut, and she's biting her lip so hard it bleeds. Bruce takes his finger and gently pries her mouth open "Breathe, Kitten. Good Girl" The doctor and the therapist exchange a worried glance. "We need to reevaluate our approach," the therapist says quietly. Diana nods. "We're not helping her by making her relive the trauma," she agrees. "We're just making it worse." Since Selina was raped so cruelly, and so many times, the doctors think that she won't be able to have children. The room is filled with the heavy silence that follows failure. The Justice League, once so united in their quest to save Selina, now find themselves at odds. "We have to capture the Joker," Batman growls. "We can't let him do this to anyone else." "But what about Selina?" Barbara asks, her eyes on her friend. "What will revenge do for her?" "It'll make us feel better," Harley snaps, her own anger and frustration bubbling to the surface. Superman's voice, calm and steady, cuts through the tension. "Our priority is Selina's healing," he says. "We need to focus on that." "But he's out there," Batman argues. "Free to hurt more people." "And we're in here," Batwoman says, her voice strained. "With Selina. That's where we're needed." Their discussion turns heated, each member's voice rising with passion as they argue the merits of justice versus vengeance. The tension in the air is thick, their emotions a tangible force. Flash paces back and forth, his agitation clear. "We can't just sit here," he says, his hands balling into fists. "We have to do something!" Wonder Woman puts a hand on his arm, trying to calm him. "We are," she says firmly. "We're fighting for Selina." But Aquaman's expression is grim. "We've failed her once," he says. "We can't fail her again." Green Lantern's voice is a low growl. "The Joker needs to pay." "But at what cost?" Cyborg asks, his eyes on Selina. "What if we lose her forever?" Their words hang in the air, heavy with the weight of their fears. "We're not giving up on her," Batwoman says, her voice firm. "And we're not giving up on justice." "But what if it's too late?" Harley's voice is a whisper. "What if he's already won?" The room falls silent as they all look to Selina, her fragile form a stark reminder of the Joker's cruel victory. The argument escalates, each member of the Justice League voicing their fears and frustrations. They're all desperate to do something, anything, to ease Selina's pain and bring the Joker to justice. The shouting reaches a crescendo, and then, without warning, it stops. Selina's eyes flutter open with a start, and she looks around the room, disoriented, and scared. She's missed the heated discussion, but she can feel the anger and sadness in the air. She tries to sit up, but is to weak to do so. "Its okay Kitten." Bruce soothes her, stroking her hair as her eyes dart around the room. "You're okay." Her eyes finally land on him, and she relaxes slightly. "Bruce," she whispers, her voice trembling. "You're safe," he repeats, his eyes never leaving hers. Selina takes a deep, shuddering breath, her grip on Bruce tightening. The team exchange concerned looks.

He touched her cheek, then kissed her forehead.
"Goodnight, Samantha."
"Goodnight, Bruce."
She lay on the bed, not knowing how she could fall asleep after what had happened.
She was still immersed in the happiness of seeing him after such a long time.
She wanted to hold him, to never let him go.
She loved him so much, more than words could express.
She had been in love with him since kindergarten, and now she was in college.
For twenty years, she had been thinking about him day and night.
She couldn't believe that he would be hers one day.
She couldn’t fall asleep until the early morning hours.
The sun shone through the window, and she woke up.
She looked at his sleeping face; he was lying on the edge of the bed.
She couldn't stand being away from him and moved closer to him.
She put her hands around his waist and hugged him tightly.
He opened his eyes and looked at her; then he frowned slightly.
"What are you doing?"
"I just can't bear to be away from you," she said.
