Chapter 3: While the White Knight's away…

While Xander and Faith were getting used to their new lives in Azeroth, Earth was going through tough times.

A plague was spreading through isolated areas and whole towns were being lost with no sign of the bodies, the Watchers council sent teams of investigators. Half returned and were showing signs of the plague, infecting the council headquarters.

Batman was investigating a wave of brutal murders committed by the Joker when he saw the demented clown run away from a group of robed people with a look of pure terror on his face screaming "They killed Harley."

********Flashback********

Joker and Harley were going around and killing people randomly, hoping to attract the bat's attention when they heard low chanting coming from an alleyway.

The Joker saw that they were collecting the bodies of those people he killed and placing them in some odd contraption.

"Hey there boys and girls, don't know who said you guys could take those bodies but I need them for a surprise for Batsy and I killed them, so they belong to me."

The head man of the robed men looked up and smiled at him and said with a voice that resonated with the cold chill of death, "Your's are they? Well I am sorry to inform you that these cadavers are ours as will all things on this world, so begone with your whore and be happy that you might live to see another day."

"Whore, whore?!!," Harley Quinn screamed "I ain't no whore you creepy necrophiiliacs."

"You tell them pun'kin!!" Joker said with pride in his voice as he readied a gas bomb filled with his joker venom and tossed it into the group.

The bomb exploded in the midst of the group, its toxic green gas billowing through the group. In a normal group of people it would have been most effective but as these people had long since died it might as well been steam for all the good the bomb did to them.

Joker looked on with joy as the gas billowed around them, but his joy quickly was replaced with rage as he saw the figures still moving.

"Well boys you don't seem to be affected by my nerve gas, so lets see if you like my machine gun!!!" He screamed as he let loose with a hail of bullets into the group, *when all else fails* he thought, *use bullets.*

When the bodies fell down Joker looked smug, *That should be the end of that!* he thought with malicious glee, *back to gaining Batsy's attention.* He and Harley went back to the car when they heard movement from the alley and they saw the people get up and look at them with amused expressions on their face's

"Are you quite done now clown? I think our master Kel'thuzad would like to talk to you now," The necromancer said "You have stood in our way long enough,"

Kel'thuzad walked out in his illusion to disguise his status as an undead lich; he looked at the two costumed humans in front of him.

And said, "Hello children, my name is Kel'thuzad I greet you in the name of my master, the Lich king. I see some small potential in you two and I invite you to join our little group, though I warn you this is a, how you say, an offer you can't refuse."

"Some one has been watching the Godfather." Joker replied snidely.

"What can I say; I enjoy the cinema you humans have created, very… entertaining." Kel'thuzad said with a grin on his disguised face, these two didn't realize what danger they were in. Humans in this world were odd to say the least.

"Humans?" the Joker asked with a bit of curiosity in his voice, "If we are human then what the hell are you?"

"Yeah that's telling them Mistah J." Harley said with a smug look at Kel'thuzad, "Looks human to me." she said.

"Human? I have given up my humanity some time ago, I am afraid all I am is an undead monster." he laughed.

Joker and Harley's eyes widened in terror as Kel'thuzad's body changed from its human one to a towering skeletal mage wearing violet robes with dark runes, his face was held from his body by a shimmering powerful cloud and he looked down at the Joker and Harley.

"Well, you asked what I am did you not?" Kel'thuzad said with amusement in his voice, "Has your curiosity been satisfied I wonder?"

For the first time in his life Joker common sense spoke up and told him to run while he can.

Harley stood transfixed by the power flowing off Kel'thuzad and she walked towards him ignoring Joker's shouts of, "Run, Harley, run."

Kel'thuzad looked at Harley and said, "Come to me child, I have need for new acolytes in this new world and you will fulfill it quite well, but first you must do some thing for me."

"What?" Whispered Harley with fear and anticipation in her voice.

"Simple my dear you must die for me, can you do that?" Kel'thuzad looked at her coldly.

"Yes!!" she said as a ghoul walked up to her holding a bloody dagger, she grabbed it and plunged it into her chest.

Joker looked back at what Harley had done and he couldn't believe what she had done, when he ran into Batman and with panic and desperation in his voice screamed, "They killed Harley!!!"

********End Flashback********

Batman followed Joker and saw the sickening carnage, he fought to keep his stomach contents down and he realized there was blood and gore everywhere where the bodies were, when he saw a message written in blood for the Joker.

Sorry Mistah J, these guys offer was so good I had to take it. I mean who wouldn't want immortality, but hey papa Kel is telling its time to go so hey I will get you next time Mistah J

Harley Quiin

Batman looked at the fear filled eyes of the Joker and for the first time he was feeling like a shadow was falling over Gotham and he wanted to know how far this cult was spreading he wanted to use the JLA's assistance in this.

Meanwhile Hermione Granger and Harry Potter where getting concerned on how distant Ron was becoming ,he had told them of the voices he was hearing and they thought Voldemort was trying to hurt Ron to get at Harry.

Ron was in his dorm at Hogwarts when he heard the words again but this time more forceful,

"Ron, you know you need this, I will give you the power you need and deserve; you will be the first of my loyal knights in this world."

Arthas laughed, Ron was starting to fall for his words. Soon he would agree and his first champion would be ready, the others had not fallen for his lie's and words but Ron had.

The Lich King was disturbed from his thoughts when he heard Kel'thuzad come in with a recruit he said he would want to meet.

Harley had learned a lot since her death and rebirth into the Scourge, now she was meeting her new master.

Kel'thuzad wanted Harley to be his apprentice and not another ghoul; she would make a great necromancer and leader for the Scourge.

Arthas looked at Harley and listened to Kel'thuzad's thoughts and agreed with him, she would be a necromancer.

"Harley Quinn, I have a mission for you and if you succeed the rewards will be great." Arthas said.

"What must I do?" Harley asked.

"You must go to Hogwarts to retrieve a person for me, his name is Ronald Weasly and he must be brought here for his rebirth into the Scourge, I will come along with you in case you fail."

"Yes my lord." Harley replied with eagerness in her voice.

At Hogwarts, the wards went off alerting everyone that something evil was coming, as the teachers and students got ready to fight whatever was coming their way. Ron was hearing "It's time my son, for you to be gifted with your new power."

As Harry and the order of the phoenix were preparing for the attack, they felt a massive jolt as a gate outside of the grounds was torn open; they looked outside and saw a massive armoured figure with a huge glowing sword enter.
