A/N - Sorry this one is super late and relatively short, I've been working on another story. Anyway, hope you enjoy the chapter.
Day 3, Coping with loss
The moon was still high in the night sky, Sam looked up at it. He had made his way onto the top of the building while his two friends slept in the room below. Sam ran a hand through his hair, he was surveying the surrounding area very carefully, he wasn't going to let any more of his team get hurt.
He hear someone step up behind him, he swung his body around, but calmed down once he realized it was only Dick. Sam sighed with relief, "Can't sleep either?" The former boy-wonder asked. Sam nodded and turned back to the edge of the building and leaned against the rail.
Dick leaned against it along with him, "We're going to find them and put them to justice" Dick stated. Sam nodded, "I don't doubt that... It's just... He's crazy and she's smart, that's not a good combination" he explained his fright.
Dick shook his head in confusion, "It doesn't make any sense... Joker has done evil things before, but it's always been in his benefit. Why would he team up with our new bad guy?" he asked in confusion.
"Joker is the symbol of Chaos. It's more than just than whatever our new villain has for him, Joker sees her as a instrument he can use to cause as much destruction as he possibly can" he reasoned. Dick nodded, he looked over at the horizon, the sun peaked out. He jumped up from his sitting position.
"We need to get going. We have two more days until Texas. Bruce has a plan to deal with Joker, no doubt. We nave to focus on the immediate threat, The Bombs." he stated. Sam nodded in agreement, "I'll go get Kara. Go sign us out" he told the former Boy Wonder.
After they all regrouped, they made their way down the street. Sam stopped the group before they could move too far along, he pulled his hoodie over his head and grabbed a discarded can of spay paint. He shook it and wrote the words - Justice League
Bruce, Diana, and Caitlin had already awaken and were once again, on the road. They had grabbed a car, since they ran out of street to walk along and turned into a highway. Caitlin was the one driving. Since, Bruce had gotten too used to driving a tank and Diana doesn't exactly know how to drive.
Bruce sat in the front seat of the rental Jeep. The Billionaire didn't sleep much, how could he? The Joker was now apart of this and that meant bad news, he had already taken one of his allies lives, how long before another.
Bruce has one rule, don't kill, but that damn sure pushes his limits. His was interrupted from his thoughts by a hand, Diana had grabbed his hand, he didn't realize it, but he was about to rip off the door handle.
Bruce looked back at her and smile, "Thanks... Guess I didn't realize what I was doing" he stated. Diana looked at him with soft eyes, "We'll find him. I promise" she stated to the vigilante. Bruce smiled, he actually smiled, "Thanks..." is all he could must out.
Barry was probably the most broken up, Snart was his friend. although he might have not always acted like it, he wanted to do the right thing, he just had the wrong methods. Barry didn't say much as they traveled through the city.
Oliver was brooding as normal, no wonder he and Bruce make such good friends. Oliver looked over at the speedster, "We'll stop The Joker and her. I promise you that, Snart's sacrifice will not be in vain" he assured. Barry gave a weak smile and nod.
"Thanks Ollie... I promise that I'll end their rein of terror, before anyone can ever be harmed by those sociopaths" he stated in a little bit of rage and inspiration. Barry cracked his knuckles and shook his head, "I won't let anyone get hurt again... I'm not going to let them take anymore lives, it's time we take the fight to them." he stated in confidence
