The Penguin's eyes burned with a cold fury as he stared out at the city. He had been rescued by Poison Ivy after his capture, had been taken in by a group of rogue villains. They were all wanted by the authorities, all hiding from the law. But the Penguin knew it wouldn't be enough.

Not if he wanted to take down Batman.

"We need a plan," he growled, turning to face his fellow villains. "Something that will ensure victory." They nodded in agreement, but the Penguin could see their doubts.

They didn't believe him, not yet. But he would prove them wrong.

"Ivy," he said, turning to the woman beside him. Poison Ivy, the one who had saved him.

"Yes?" she said, her eyes dark and mysterious.

"We're going to make a move," the Penguin said. "Soon." Poison Ivy nodded. "I'll get ready," she said.

And with that, she was gone.

Poison Ivy smiled as she entered her lair, her eyes gleaming with excitement. The Penguin had promised her a place in his new plan, and she intended to take it. She had been watching Batman for a long time, and she had come up with the perfect plan.

He would fall to his knees before her, the entire city of Gotham at her mercy. And she would have done it all without touching him once.

It was perfect.

She started mixing, her hands quick and nimble as she added the final touches to her concoction. It was ready.

She left her lair with a smile, the Penguin waiting for her as she emerged into the sunlight.

"What do you have?" he asked her, his voice eager.

Poison Ivy smiled again. "I have what we need," she said. "Batman will fall."

The Penguin nodded, a cold smile on his face. "Then let's get started," he said.

Selina had been keeping an eye on the Penguin and Poison Ivy for weeks, her suspicions about their plan growing with each passing day. Batman was keeping a close eye on them too, but even he couldn't guess what they were going to do.

The Penguin and his accomplices had been seen sneaking

around the city, their movements seeming to be at random. But Selina knew better than that. They were up to something, and she had a feeling she knew what it was.

She had seen a strange flower blooming in the city, its scent wafting through the air and causing people to become drowsy and confused. Poison Ivy was using it for something, but Selina couldn't work out what.

And that was when she realized, her suspicions confirmed.

Batman had been acting strangely too.

---

---

He had been sleeping more and more, his movements slowing. His strength was still there, but it seemed to be waning. It was as if he was sick. Selina knew something was up.

She made her way to Batman's lair, her body tense with worry. Something was wrong, and she needed to find out what before it was too late.

When she arrived at the cave, she found Batman lying unconscious on the floor. Selina gasped, her mind racing as she dropped down beside him.

"Bruce," she whispered. She shook him, trying to get him to wake up. But he wouldn't move. Selina started to panic. She needed to do something, but she didn't know what.

And then, just as she was about to lose hope, she heard a noise behind her.

It was Poison Ivy.

---

Poison Ivy had been hiding in the shadows, watching as Selina tried to get Batman to wake up. It had worked, just as she had thought it would. Selena was now a prisoner in her trap.

"Hello," she smiled, moving to stand in front of them. "Welcome to my party."

Selina growled, her fists tightening as she stood up. "You're not going anywhere," she snarled.

Poison Ivy laughed, the sound low and husky. "Oh," she said. "I'm not?" She gestured to Batman, her eyes gleaming. "Look at him," she chuckled. "He can't even get up."

Selina lunged forward, but Poison Ivy was too quick. She caught Selena by the wrist, her grip like iron. Selina struggled, but she couldn't free herself.

"You shouldn't have interfered," Poison Ivy hissed, her breath cold on Selena's skin. "Now you'll never leave this place alive."

And with that, she struck.

---

Selena gasped as Poison Ivy's hand made contact with her jaw, the force of the blow sending her crashing to the floor. She could feel the blood dripping from her mouth, her teeth aching in her jaw. But she refused to give up.

She used all of her strength to push herself to her feet, ignoring the pain in her head. Poison Ivy glared at her, her eyes cold and unforgiving. Selena knew she was in trouble. But she was not going to be defeated.

She lunged at Poison Ivy, her hands swiping through the air as she tried to grab her. But Poison Ivy was too strong, her grip wrapping around Selena's throat.

"You should have stayed out of this," she hissed. Selena struggled, trying to free herself from her grip. But it was no use. Poison Ivy was going to kill her. And Batman would be next. Selena knew she had to act.

With all her remaining strength, she pushed forward, her knee connecting with Poison Ivy's stomach. The woman gasped, her grip loosening. Selena pulled herself free, gasping for breath as she looked up at Poison Ivy. The woman was glaring at her, her face twisted with rage.

"You bitch," she snarled. And with that, she swung again.

Selina barely dodged in time, Poison Ivy's fist grazing her ear. Selena gritted her teeth and struck back, her punch connecting with Poison Ivy's face. The woman yelped as she stumbled backwards, clutching at her nose.

Selena knew she had the upper hand, but she also knew Poison Ivy was dangerous. She would not give up easily. Selena needed to end this fight now, before Poison Ivy could recover.
