On the docks at night in the most cliche manner, gangsters met to make a deal. Both sides were apparently unarmed out in the open. "All there, unmarked bills, as promised," the black gangster said opening a briefcase filled with money.
"Congratulations, you're now the proud new owner of...," the Russian gangster said and then looked at his notes to double-check. "Seven hearts, fourteen kidneys, seven livers, fourteen lungs, and fourteen corneas."
"Basically, seven whole bodies. I can do the math," the black gangster said feeling disrespected.
The Russian gangster motioned for a cargo container to be opened revealing seven human trafficking victims all still alive. "Some dissembling is required," he smirked.
"Yeah, no shit," the black gangster said impatiently.
Batwoman then glided over them, jumped off the roof of a car, and disappeared into the docks. "Well, that was weird," the Russian gangster remarked.
"Bring her ass to me, so I can have eight hearts, sixteen kidneys, eight livers, sixteen lungs, and sixteen corneas," the black gangster ordered his men.
A projectile cable gun suddenly latched onto one of the men and pulled him back into the shadows where he got an off-screen beat down. Batwoman then engaged the gangsters punching and slamming them into their own cars. One of them was slammed through a car window. Batwoman kept it up throwing another man to the pavement and then dislocating the arm of the black gangster.
Batwoman then entered the cargo container only to be ambushed. She easily beat him back and kicked him out of the cargo container where he smacked into a barrel hosting the briefcase filled with money scattering the bills everywhere. The gangsters recovered themselves and then shut the door on Batwoman and the human trafficking victims.
"Shit," Kate realized.
There was a moment of silence and then the cargo container began to move. Kate steadied herself as the cargo container floated above the ground. Outside, the cargo container roof was connected to a helicopter via cable.
The Russian gangster piloted the container and took it across the city. "A dead Batwoman is worth more than all those girls combined," he said to himself.
"Hold on, I got this," Kate said to the girls and took out a laser cutting tool. She sliced the lock open and kicked the doors open.
"Shit," Kate realized how high they were.
She looked up and saw the cable attached to the helicopter. Braving the wind and the extreme heights, Kate took hold of the chain cable. "I could use some help," Kate radioed.
Supergirl suddenly landed on the cargo container and walked on the outside towards the cable. "Grab tight," Kara told her.
Kate took hold of the cable and made her way up towards the helicopter. Kara then blasted the cable with heat vision and then took the cargo container away. Kate continued to make her way up the chain as it whirled around the city. The Russian gangster noticed his cargo container was gone with Batwoman hanging on the cable for dear life.
He quickly directed the helicopter into an electronic billboard creating a shower of sparks and an explosion of shrapnel. The Russian gangster then looked back and noticed Batwoman was off the cable. "Nice," he smiled.
Suddenly the door window shattered as Kate took hold of him. "I'm taking you down," she said to him.
"Bitch, please," the Russian gangster fought her back. Bullets went flying inside the helicopter as they fought over his gun.
Kate then realized the helicopter was flying towards the Statue of Liberty. "Oh, shit," she realized and got out of the helicopter just in time.
The helicopter blades sliced into the Statue of Liberty's face and then the helicopter exploded in a fireball. Batwoman glided down and hit the water. Looking up, she saw the Statue of Liberty's ruined face.
The next morning, Kate and Brainiac 5 met up with Kara at her office in Wayne Tower. "Congratulations, Kate, you just blew half of the Statue of Liberty's face off," Kara said annoyed.
"I saved seven girls from being dissected. I should get some credit for that, at least," Kate said unconcernedly.
"Yeah, sure," Kara rolled her eyes. "With my help. When you take down a squad, you make sure they're either dead or unconscious and searched for weapons before you go help the victims.
"Okay, you're right, I fucked up," Kate admitted.
"Have some champagne. It will make you feel better," Kara offered.
"I still think I should be able to wear a red-flaming wig," Kate said impatiently.
"Yeah, except it's like a red flag in front of a bull," Kara said dismissively.
"Just put electrodes in the wig so when someone grabs me they get shocked with ten thousand volts," Kate suggested.
"Except if there is a malfunction you get shocked too...and then you're dead. Look, no wig, period," Kara told her off.
"I feel really bad about that guy dying. Does that mean I killed someone?" Kate asked horrified.
"Your conscience is clean. He survived," Brainiac 5 said showing video footage of a parachuter escaping the helicopter.
"Thank God," Kate said relieved.
Kara and Brainiac 5 gave each other looks. "My sister Mary wants to be a part of this," Kate brought up.
"The answer is no," Kara said immediately. "If she wants to be in your life, take her out to dinner, watch a romantic movie, and then sleep with her."
"Wait...what?" Kate thought she misheard.
"You two aren't even related," Kara said dismissively.
"That...doesn't make it okay. Would you sleep with your adopted sister?" Kate asked.
Kara merely stared at her. "I guess I'm asking the wrong person," Kate muttered.
"We shouldn't compare ourselves to regular people. We're superheroes. We do whatever the fuck we want," Kara told her.
"I think I would rather go find Lucius Fox's journal," Kate volunteered.
"Yeah, you go do that," Kara rolled her eyes.
While Kate was snooping around, Kara and Brainiac 5 met up in the Bat-Cave. "As far as anyone else knows, Tommy Elliot is still alive. We can use that to our advantage," Kara mused.
"I already have," Brainiac 5 said. "I called up one of his associates at the Lookout Club using his voice. The club manager confirmed the journal is there. It's also a source of money laundering for the mob."
"So, I'm going to walk through the front door and kick ass," Kara smiled. "Oh, you feel that?"
"I feel nothing," Brainiac 5 reminded her.
"It's the universe sending us a message. We're going clubbing," Kara said excitedly.
Kara and Kate entered the building hosting the Lookout without difficulty due to their VIP statuses. They took the elevator to the top floor where the actual club was at. Kara eyed Kate's all-black suit attire in great contrast to her white dress. "Just because you're a lesbian doesn't mean you have to dress like a man," Kara critiqued.
"It's how I express myself so real lesbians know what's up," Kate said defensively.
"If I was a lesbian, I'd want to stay away from anyone that looks like a man," Kara rolled her eyes.
"Maybe I'm into someone that's a femme," Kate said.
The two entered the club and found scantily clad girls dancing in suspended cages. "So, being an uber feminist, how do you feel about this? Do you feel appalled or aroused?" Kara asked as she pointed them out.
"Can it be both?" Kate asked.
"That's my girl," Kara laughed.
Kate then noticed Reagan aka Brainiac 5 as the bartender. "Reagan or is it Barney?"
"I can be whoever you want me to be," Reagan smiled and handed her a drink.
"I'm still not over the fact that I found out you're a robot...after we already slept together," Kate said annoyed.
"We can always continue where we left off, no demands, no strings, no consequences," Reagan enticed.
"Maybe, if I don't die on this mission," Kate considered.
The lights then suddenly went out as Kara went into the back area and turned the power switch off. "That's my cue," Kate said to Reagan and then suited up.
As the clubbers wandered around aimlessly in confusion, Batwoman went through the crowd using night-vision lenses and made her way to the club office. Meanwhile, Kara was caught by some guards armed with flashlights and guns. She beat them all down within a second.
"The journal may be in the wall safe. I'll give you the combination," Brainiac 5 radioed from the Bat-Cave.
"Or it's on the table," Kate noted.
"Something that valuable wouldn't be unprotected. Proceed with caution," Brainiac 5 warned.
"Too easy," Kate said grabbing the journal.
Immediately, the alarm went off and wire cables wrapped around her feet. She was then violently thrown into a bookcase knocking her out. "Kate is down," Brainiac 5 radioed Kara.
"Well...shit," she sighed.
Jonny and his crew spotted Kate on the floor. "Take her in the back and send out the word that we'll be selling the Batwoman to the highest bidder," he said greedily.
Kate was then dragged away.
For the next hour, Jonny began selling off Batwoman's equipment in auctions. "And now, the final item of the night. Let's face it, it is the reason why you are all here. I give you the Batwoman, herself," Jonny said rolling her out. Kate was completely chained up and gagged.
"I'll start the bidding at one million dollars," Jonny began.
The underground big-shots all started raising their hands as the price went up. "Ten million dollars," Kara said nonchalantly.
"We're an all-cash business and that briefcase of yours can't have that much," Jonny said skeptically.
"No shit. It's 2.5 million. The rest, I'll wire to any account you want," Kara said obviously.
"Why you so interested in her?" Jonny asked.
"I'm only interested in the suit. It has technology my Wayne Industries technicians would love to look at," Kara replied.
"How about you get the suit after we take it off her dead body?" Jonny suggested.
"Sold," Kara agreed.
"And to the man that won the auction to kill her," Jonny said pointing out the black gangster that had his arm dislocated previously.
"What I lost is nothing compared to what people will be offering to get a piece of the bat," the black gangster said as he took out a butcher knife.
"I have locked all the doors. No one can escape," Brainiac 5 radioed Kara.
Kara's eyes went red and then heat vision beams went everywhere slicing people in half, blasting heads off, and tearing off limbs. The gangsters fired at her and even used the stolen projectile cable gun with no result. Kara targeted every single individual in the room until they were all burnt smoking pieces. Kara saved Jonny for last. "If I knew...," he stammered.
Kara blasted him with heat vision and then sliced off Kate's chains freeing her. "Was that really necessary?" Kate asked her dismayed at the dozen bodies on the floor.
"Kate, if you don't fuck up, people don't get killed. It's that simple," Kara said dismissively.
"I have the journal and I am on my way back to Wayne Tower," Brainiac 5 reported.
"Like a true professional," Kara said to Kate.
Kara and Kate walked out of the building both in civilian clothes. "Thanks for saving my ass," Kate said appreciatively.
"And?" Kara asked expectedly.
"Thank you for risking your secret identity and your money for me," Kate added.
"No problem," Kara smiled.
"So, can Mary be part of our team?" Kate asked.
"Fuck no," Kara denied.
Reagan then joined up with them. "Kate, can you give me a ride...to your bar so we can have drinks and then have hawt lesbian sex in your bed?" she asked suggestively.
"This is so weird...but I like weird," Kate smiled taking Reagan away with her.
Kara merely shook her head in amusement and headed the other way.
At the Bat-Cave, Kara and Brainiac 5 looked over the journal. "So, anything interesting?" Kara asked.
"It's entirely in code," he said showing it to her.
Kara eyed the book filled with symbols. "Well...shit. How long will it take for you to break the code?" Kara asked him.
"I already have," Brainiac 5 smirked.
