III: Friend on the Docks of Gotham
Gohan got up and marched towards the men in the front bothered by how rudely they were treating the waitress. Meanwhile, one of them, a blonde man reached over to the waitress's butt hungry to grab it.
"Don't lose that hand, Puddin'," she warned. Unfortunately, but as a guy like he was, challenged her threat. Just before she retaliated, Gohan cleared his throat.
"I'd listen to her if I were you, creep," Gohan glared. The rest of the guys returned the glare except for the man the Waitress warned about touching her. He laughed. The Waitress turned around, her eyes shot partially open to the size of dinner plates as if she recognized the boy - only by a little. But even she had to admit that what Gohan was doing was stupid - or so she and the others thought.
Gohan did not move a muscle. He was already in a bad mood. Tonight was not the night to piss him off. The Guy laughed and walked over to the boy towering him. He bent over mocking Gohan in a condescending tone in his voice. It didn't bother him at all, but he was taken aback about how they were treating the Waitress. He slowly got into his kata.
"And what are you gonna do about it little boy?" the Man asked.
"I will stop you," Gohan said with a dark tone, "Apologize to her, right now."
"Or what? You gonna call Daddy on me?" the Man mocked dabbing on the kid's chest, "Beat it kid, this is no place for a squirt like you." Angered, Gohan grabbed his index finger and bent it.
The Man cried in pain. The other guys stood up as their friend got in his knees as Gohan was crushing his index finger, "Are you going to apologize?"
"Fuck you!" the Man cried. Behind him, another Man ran with a long pipe. Gohan picked up the Guy he held and threw him to the Man charging. A Third Man ran over; Gohan jumped on the Second Man's head and smashed his feet on the Man's face hurtling him out the window. The Final Man stared in fear. He ran out the door.
The Waitress stood speechless.
"This kid just soloed them!" the woman thought. Gohan bowed to the Waitress and walked out the door, no longer feeling hungry. The Waitress only stared as he walked out.
...
Harley Quinn followed the mysterious boy out of the restaurant, just before clocking out by the way. She got a ham sandwich on her way out, a gift for the boy that saved her neck. Though she could take care of herself - except save for a certain clown, she was surprised to see a kid his age stand up for her without hesitation. Even Batman would have question her motives.
This kid didn't.
"Hey wait a second!" she said. The Boy stopped and turned to the Waitress, "You forgot your sandwich. You thought you're gonna go to a restaurant without ordering anything huh?" she asked.
"I'm sorry," the Boy said, "I caused a ruckus and..."
"Bah, everyone causes a ruckus," she dismissed, "When you are in a restaurant called 'SuperBabes', you get to see a lot of assholes trying to get their way. But the guy you attacked did have a point - a little. Why were you in this restaurant anyway?" she asked handing him a sandwich. The Boy took it.
"I was hungry and this was the only place I could find that was close to where I live at," he answered, "I was bothered by the guys disrespecting you. I had to do something."
Harley smiled, "Well that was really sweet - wait...," a thought came up, "Aren't you the new guy?"
The Boy arched his brow.
"I was the lady that knocked on the door and left you the cake!" she said.
The Boy dilated his eyes, "Oh, I'm sorry!" The Boy giggled.
"So you're going home?" she asked, "I bet your parents must be worried."
The Boy looked down, "Yeah."
"Hey, instead of you walking by yourself, I can take you home. Lot's of crazies out here tonight," Harley said with a smile.
The Boy smiled, "That's kind of you."
"Damn right! Now lets get you home," she said, "Oh and by the way, what should I call ya? Young Bruce Lee? Who?"
The Boy chuckled, "No, my name is Gohan."
"Gohan huh? Sounds unique. Never heard anyone named that before. Next time if you're lost, I get to scream, 'YO' I'M MISSING A GOHAN HERE! YOU SEEN THIS SPIKY HAIRED TEEN ANYWHERE?' only for the people to point to the source! Yep, my job as a babysitter will be so much easier," she joked.
Gohan laughed, "You're pretty funny."
"Funny? I'm hilarious!" Harley said getting in front of the boy as they walked down the street, "But don't let the name 'Hilarious' fool ya. I'm Harley Quinn! You know like the Motorcycle?"
Gohan chuckled, "Nice to meet you, Ms. Quinn..."
"Oh please...that's my Mother. And I ain't my Mother. Trust me," she said, "Just call me Harley Quinn. First and Last, but mainly first, because that will be weird if you only call me from my first and last name," she said.
"Sure thing, Ms...I mean Harley," Gohan said with a smile.
"Alrighty then, shall we, Mister Spiky?" Harley said jokingly.
Gohan nodded. They walked down the street straight for the Apartment yonder unaware of a man, dressed as a bat, sitting on top of a building watching them. Batman originally was looking for Harley, but now things were getting difficult.
"This was unexpected," he said.
