"How do you defuse these bombs exactly?" Deadshot asked as everyone took a seat, with me standing with "Black Spider".
"Its the electro shock." The Riddler said, pushing the machine closer.
"Electro what?" Boomerang asked, not understanding what was said.
"I'm going to run a thousand volts through your head and fry the bombs!" He clarified, with us understanding.
"If that's the chase, I don't need the machine." I said, tinkering with my belt.
"What do you mean?" Frost asked as she sat down, looking at me.
"I'll calibrate my barrier to overload, sending about a thousand four hundred volts through my body, but I will need someone to turn the machine off or I could die." I said, looking at "Black Spider". "What do you say, help a friend out?" I asked, showing him my arm.
"What's needed?" He asked, with me nodding.
"I'll need you to swipe this bar from red to green when the time is right." I said, with him nodding.
"I love electro shock, its a shiatsu massage for your brain!" Harley said, looking at everyone, creeping some of them out.
"Lose those." Riddler said, with me looking at him, seeing him pointing at Deadshot.
"More cops, Choppers too." "Black Spider" said, with me looking outside, seeing that he was right.
"This will work?" Deadshot asked, with me looking over at him.
"The Riddler is a genius, I wouldn't take him lightly." I said, looking at the Riddler. 'He will live, along with everyone here... For now.' I thought, smirking as he clamped everyone down. "The restraints are to prevent anyone from wiggling too much, which can mess with the procedure." I informed, with me looking at boomerang.
"I don't trust this fruit loop." He said, with me rolling my eyes.
"You know what you're doing, right?" King Shark asked, with me looking at him.
"You don't have to trust him King, trust me." I said, with him looking at me. "Have I lied to you yet?" I asked, smirking as I knew that the Riddler's math would be off because of how thick King Sharks skin was.
"Damn it, don't stop working!" Deadshot said, with me knowing that he was getting a call from Waller.
I didn't listen from there as I turned up the power, where I felt like every part of my body was on fire from the discharge of the barrier. I fell to my knees, clenching my teeth as the pain was more than I could bare. Falling on my back, I held my arms up, making fists as to some how hold on to something but not grab anything. I felt the back of my neck burn even more, where I felt something pop, where I closed my eyes at it was hurting more than the shock.
After a bit more, Black Spider grabbed my arm and swiped to the side, shutting the power off completely. I gasped for air, with me taking notice to the others going through the shock themselves, with Harley laughing her ass off. Getting lifted up, I had my arm around Black Spiders neck, with him holding me up.
After some time, I watched them calm down as the Riddler shut the power down. "I never want to do that again." Boomerang said, with me looking at King Shark, as I knew he was going to die soon. I felt bad for him, but he was the worst out of all of us, and deserved to die.
"Are you kidding, I feel GREAT!?" Harley yelled, with me smirking as I looked over at her, then back at King Shark as his bomb started.
"Uh... Guys?" He asked, looking at us in a bit of fear.
"DO IT AGAIN!?" Frost yelled, wanting to save the Shark.
"Its too late." I said, looking at King Shark, with them looking at me. "As soon as that sound starts, the bombs already gone off." I said, looking away as his head exploded. "Ok... I should of tried to save him." I thought, looking down at the ground, then at Black Spider. "Tell me, how dose it feel to kill Black Spider, BATMAN!?" I yelled, kneeing the now reviled Batman in the gut, getting off of him. Backing up, I drew my knife, holding it in my hand and getting ready for a fight. The Riddler started shooting at him, with him ducking behind Boomerangs chair and then tossed a batarang at him, with the Riddler ducking in return, turning on the machine.
Looking at everyone screaming, I ran over to the machine and turned it off, with everyone relaxing once more. I was then pushed against the wall, with Batman holding me against it. "Talk, why are you here?" He questioned, with me smirking.
"You didn't get the news, we were forced to work for the government as a group known as Task Force X, but if you ask me, were noting but a Suicide Squad." I said, narrowing my eyes. "Waller is the one you want, not us, and the longer she's out there, the more lives she will kill for the likes of us to be out there doing your job, but messy." I said, grinning as he narrowed his eyes.
"Waller, what's she got to do with-"
Batman was interrupted as he was shot in the back, with me tackling him down to cover, with us tripping the machine on its side. "I'm here bitches, and I brought favors for everybody!?" The Joker said as he walked in, with me frowning as there was too much going on in such a little room to deal with it. Looking at the bombs as they slid across the floor, I turned my barrier back on, making a shield for me.
Running into the battle, I grabbed Frost and we were both pushed to the side, but I regained my balance and watched as the Joker was focused on Batman. Seeing everyone getting out, we made our exit, with us making a run for it as we were now free.
Later
Running down the hall, I hung back with Frost and Boomerang, while Harley and Deadshot lead the way. Hearing a whistle, we all stopped, seeing the Joker walking in front of us, tossing Deadshot's weapon up and down, looking at us. "I think this was yours Deadhead, finders keepers!" The Joker said, smiling as he aimed a gun at us.
"Puddin, you're free!" Harley yelled, switching sides in a matter of moments, only to get hit upside the head with the clip of the gun.
"Don't you "Puddin" me?!" The Joker said, looking down at her. "I go away and suddenly you have new friends, and you've even picked a new guy!?" He said, looking back at us.
"You got it all wrong baby!" Harley said, standing up and walking over to him. "I was using them to help you escape!" She said, with me frowning as I could believe that, but it would of been accidental with her personality. She went around him, where she stopped on his left side. "Who else would I break into Arkham for." She said, leaning up to his ear and Whispered something to him, and he liked it.
They both started walking away, but I knew it wasn't over, even with Boomerang and Frost sighing in relief. I watched Harley pick up her mallet, with me narrowing my eyes at it. 'That's the bomb.' I thought, with the Joker stopping. 'We have to get away from Harley, the Joker truly is Mad.' I thought, seeing him look back this way.
He started approaching us, looking pissed. "You, new guy!" He said, with us just standing there. "I don't like people touching my stuff!" He said, aiming his gun at Deadshot.
Deadshot walked forward, with me following, gaining the others attention. Once Deadshot stopped in front of the gun, I kicked in in the head, moving him away from the Joker. "Stay down, let the Kid solve this." I said, looking from him to the Joker. "You're out of bullets." I said, taking my own gun and ejecting the clip, holding it out to him, with the Jokers eyes widening. "Tell you what, you can have this entire clip, I'll only keep one, sounds fair?" I asked, with the Joker actually thinking about it.
"Oh, what the hell, I like this game!?" He said, taking my clip and putting it into his gun and cocked it, taking aim at my head. "So, who shoots first?" He asked, with me tapping the side of my head.
"I'll give it to you, and I promise, I wont move." I said, scaring Harley, Deadshot and Boomerang. Frost knew what was about to happen, and she crossed her arms. "But, if you cant hit your mark, I'll kill you." I said, aiming at him as well. "Think you can kill the Dark Spirit of Arkham?" I said, grinning as we stared at one another.
He fired, and a bullet flew off to the wall, confusing everyone as they saw a white filed appear in front of me. The Jokers eyes widened and then shot again. And again. And again until he ran out of bullets. He backed away, looking at me in shock. "Now that's not funny." He said, looking at his gun then at me.
"My turn." I said, changing my target to Deadshot's wrist gun, with me shooting it, with it flying through the air. "Deadshot, now!" I said, seeing him jump up and place his wrist gun on his hand and started shooting at the Joker, with both him and Harley going down the laundry shoot.
"Mate, you just out crazed the Joker." Boomerang said, approaching us with Frost next to him. "And all of the bullets just flew off in another direction, you really are the Dark Spirit of Arkham!" He said, with me looking at Deadshot.
"You should be more carful." I said, with him standing next to me. "He is a lose cannon, don't take him likely." I said, looking at the others. "That goes for the rest of you. If you get a chance to kill him, do it, because you wont get another shot." I said, with me leading the way this time.
