Draw the cat eye sharp enough to kill a man

The three of them sat on top one of the tall buildings of Gotham's skyline, looking down upon a jeweler thats about to close.

"Repeat the plan to me one more time." ,without looking up at them Selina could tell that Harley rolled her eyes.

"You climb on the roof, wait till they put all the stuff that is reserved in the safe and give us a sign when they did.", Poison Ivy answered after a few moments of awkward silence, "Then I creat a distraction by attacking the store front and you break the safe open."

Selina nodded then turned to Harley, "And what do you do?"

"I wait in the getaway car over there, although that is a massive waist of my talents."

Selina was more than aware of the fact that her friends were growing increasingly annoyed at her extra carefulness. She was kind of annoyed at it herself, but she would blame Bruce for this paranoia anyway. Ever since they had learned about each other's secret identities, she had learned a lot about the charade he kept up.

It also didn't help that both her and Pamela were quite keen to keep Harley out of Blackgate. Because even though they would never say it out loud; that was were the Joker was.

So they were careful.

Selina nodded, before she jumped over a few roofs until she landed on top the jeweler. There was a big enough window at the back of the building that she had scouted out earlier. She could easily hang herself from the roof, crack the window open and slide into the employee bathroom. Just after a few more minutes she could hear the safe being closed shut and she send a text to Poison Ivy.

Selina honestly started to think this was a little bit to easy.

A few moments later the commotion started outside and Selina slipped through the door. The safe before her was build into the wall and the door was just a few inches taller than she was. She however was familiar with this model so it shouldn't be to hard. It was actually quite important that she hurried so that they could get away before batman arrived. Although she liked to think that she only had to start worrying about him when the sun had set.

Finally the last number clicked and she could open the door. In the background she could vaguely her the sound of vines breaking glass. Which she supposed was a sound most people wouldn't so easily recognise.

As soon as she stepped into the safe she could feel the cold iron of a gun against her temple. This had definitely been to easy.

"Put your hands up where I can see them.",commanded a gravely voice. Selina did as she was told while turning her head to the side. Before her stand a man with a moustache in a run down suit and glasses sitting on his nose quite wobbly.

"Jim Gordon" ,she purred, "Am I really important enough that Gothams commissioner himself comes to lock me up?"

"Believe it or not, but some people are quite particular about not having their jewellery stolen." ,he answered and she did not miss the smallest of smiles flashing over his face.

"Mmmmhm yeah, because they definitely only store jewellery here." Now at that he looked a bit confused.

She used that opportunity to twist his arm and press him against the wall. She hadn't really been worried either way. From what Bruce told her about the commissioner (and Bruce talked about him kind of a lot) she didnt really see him as the type to shoot someone unarmed straight in the face. The extreme incompetence of the Gotham city police did however worry her.
