Chapter 3
"Bruce," Diana turned towards the clear plexi-glass that looked into the temporary residence of The Joker.
"Diana, I want you to go to the medical bay and get checked out," Bruce stated coldly as without looking at her.
"I am fine, Bruce! I don't know how many times I am going to have to tell you that, but I do not need any type of medical attention. I am an Amazon warrior, I do not need to be treated like a child. I will heal."
Bruce turned to look straight into her eyes. Usually, Diana could handle the staring contest of wills, but when he spoke, chills attacked her spine. Something was different, and she had to find out what.
"Diana, I don't care if you are stronger than Superman, I want you to get checked out by somebody. The Joker is a sick bastard," Bruce was not seething, which was odd, "I don't know what the full extent of that dart was, and I want to."
Diana turned to look at their captive as his words sunk in. The last dart like that held poison, but surely this one didn't. She didn't feel any different, except a little worn out from the shocks. Now that doubt started to creep into her mind, she decided to go down to the medical wing. If it were anybody else telling her to go, she didn't think she would have even considered going.
"Fine," Diana stated, seeing Bruce's posture almost visibly relax, "I will go, but only if you are the one to look over me."
"I have work to do here," Bruce began; glad to have a mask to hide his shock and embarrassment at her request.
"He is not going anywhere, and we need to talk. If you want me to get checked out, then you are going to have to talk to me, and leave him here." With hands on her hips, Diana looked the fearsome bat dead in the face.
"Fine," Bruce gave one last glance at the mad man, and started to walk alongside the princess, "but we have nothing to talk about Princess."
"We will see about that," Diana smirked as she continued down the hall way.
Meanwhile…
"The chip has been implanted sir," one of The Joker's newest henchmen declared.
"Good," The Joker grinned as he thought about the next few hours, "Now we can see how close batsy is to the Amazon Princess."
With that, the man activated the transmitter and the voice of Wonder Woman filled the room. What really made The Joker happy was the fact that there was another voice coming over the com.
"I do not understand why you won't talk to me," Wonder Woman said with an audible sigh.
"Maybe it's because there is nothing to talk about," Batman's gruff voice reverberated throughout the room.
"This is going to be perfect," The Joker let out a high pitched laugh.
