(Metropolis)
The city is in a panic as a monster rampages around the city with its lone eye snaps open we see a giant star fish like monster with a single eye in its center glaring at all around it, as it lay waste to the city it sees more foolish insects cowering before it with a look of disgust the monster ready to crush them but was stopped as a bat grapple held it back.
Grabbing the monsters attention it growled at the interference only for its four other appendage to be held by differing means grunting the monster tries to free itself until hearing " The days of terrorizing this planet with your evil schemes are over, a long and perilous quest, Bumblebee has located the Hatorei crystals!" said Wonder Women with her lasso of truth firmly in her grip, Starro turned to see Bumblebee holding said crystal as it starts to struggle "Once these crystals are joined, we shall have the power to send you back to the dimension from whence-" [ringing] Wonder Women was cut off by a phone ringing.
As they all looked confused they turn to Batgirl who digging in her utility belt "Oops. Hang on." finally pulling her cell phone out and seeing who called she sheepishly said "Sorry, gotta take this." before hoping down letting go of her grappling hook "Hello? Nah, I can totally talk now." Batgirl said as she walks off talking on her phone.
The Titans and Starro looked awkwardly before Starro felt the Grappling hook loosen and fell off, as they all looked at the falling grappling hook they looked back to Starro looking up "Uh oh." was all Double could say in his Luna Metal form as Starro glared at them.
Batgirl is oblivious to the struggles of her team as she talked on the phone "Harleen. It's been for-evs!" [Babsy guess where I am?] "Guess where you are?" [Yea guess.] "Hmm... I don't know, Gotham Zoo?" [Nope] "Gotham Comics." [Nuh uh] "No, Gotham Zoo." [You already said that [giggle] no I'm in Metropolis silly!] "[gasps] You're in Metropolis?" [Yep just moved in.] "[gasps] You moved here?" [Uh huh, and I can't wait to see you at school.] "[gasps] You'll see me in school tomorrow?" [That's right Babsy wabsy.] "[gaps] I've never gasped so much in my life. Oh, Harls, this is the best news since ever. I can't wait to see you." [Me too see ya tomorrow.] After Batgirl hanged up she turned to her friends collapsed in pain and exhaustion but with no Starro in sight "Hooray, you beat Starro."
"No. Starro beat us." Bumblebee said as she crawled out of some rubble's.
Green Lantern just stared up in pain on a car she was slammed into. "Over and over again."
"Who knew a giant walking star fish could be this strong." Double said as he hanged off a broken and bent lamp pole which couldn't bare his weight as he fell "Oof!"
Wonder Women who landed on top of a metal roof groaned "We only just managed to send him to another dimension."
"I hope that other dimension's okay." Zatanna muffled out as she lay face down in exhaustion.
Supergirl who was climbing out of the crater she was in grunts "Bottom line, we lost." she said as she huffs in pain due to being the most bashed in the fight hence the crater.
"Well!, pfft. We may have lost that but we won at life because.." Batgirl said as she made her way to her friends before pausing for effect "my best friend is moving to Metropolis!" Batgirl finished as she does a happy dance while the buildings dropped behind them.
Double who was helping Supergirl out of her hole looked to Batgirl "At least your happy but can you help carry the girls to the RevolGarry." Double said stopping Batgirl who salutes as she pulls Bumblebee from the rubble.
After pulling Supergirl out who went over to Wonder Women, Double walked up to Zatanna who groaned in exhaustion "Can you get up Zee?"
Zatanna looked up tiredly "No, sorry Darling I might need to be carried if you wouldn't mind?" Double sighed before picking her up in a princess carry as he made his way over to his machine "As always such a gentlemen." Zatanna said as she hugs him getting Double to sputter in embarrassment getting her to giggle.
"Hey we're loaded up so can we go now?" Supergirl said in annoyance after placing Jess down and waiting for Double to drive.
(Metropolis High Next Day)
Selina Kyle walked through the hall before seeing a rich looking cheerleader in pink, smirking a bit she walked over until she was behind her ready to pickpocket the girl in pink until someone just bumped into her.
"What do we have here? A fresh face." a punk girl said beside an obvious bully in a tracksuit smirking before she looked besides her "Hey Carol finally out of suspension."
Carol just scoffed "I was just trying to find Hally poo until your Principle pulled me away and got me kicked out of my old school." she said as she crossed her arms before smirking a bit "But on the bright side at least I don't have to come up with excuses to sneak in." getting laughs from the punk and jock, seeing them distracted Selina was about to sneak off until she was grabbed by the collar of her jacket getting a surprised mreow.
"So what do we do with her?" The bully said until she was caught off guard as the girl slips out of her jacket and trip her "Woah!?" as she fell she let go of the jacket that was snatched back by the girl.
"Careful this cost a lot to get." Selina said as she tugged her jacket smirking a bit "And by how light your wallet is I don't think you would understand." pulling a wallet out of nowhere.
Surprised as the bully starts to pat herself before glaring back at her "Hey give that back!" she yelled as she charged her but Selina kept moving about dodging every swipe "Stand still and give back my wallet!"
As Selina was playing with her she yelp in pain as her hand was zapped dropping the wallet holding her hand in pain before seeing the bully pulling back her fist before throwing it toward her causing Selina to brace herself... But nothing came peeking through she saw a plant vine holding the jocks fist back "Selina Kyle why are you in Metropolis?"
Turning around she saw someone she never thought she would meet her here "Isley and here I was wondering where you disappeared to." Selina said as before hearing vines groaning in tension before a snap getting her to see the Jock grows until she was a giant but not only that she saw the punk lights up until she is now glowing with black clothes "Now this is interesting."
"You think your little plant can hold Giganta?" she said with a smirk with Livewire walked besides her who sparked her hands.
"So what your gonna do now hero?" Livewire said only to get a laugh from Selina getting the others attention "And whats so funny?"
Selina just wiped a tear from her eyes "You think she's a hero? Oh, no no no she isn't a hero [Giggle] She's Poison Ivy." Selina said as vines and roots burst out behind her showing Poison Ivy standing beside Selina.
At first surprised before a pink shredder appeared before Livewire and Giganta showing Carol now in her Star Sapphire alter ego "Now this is a surprise" as the plants retreated back as she looks around "So lonely Isley is actually Poison Ivy." Star said before turning her head to the other girl "And you know, which means."
"I'm also from Gotham? That's right but things are getting dicey, can't get any good heist back home so I came here." Selina said as she struts around the super villains "And just so you know I don't have superpowers."
The non Gotham villians looked at her "So what makes you so special?" Star said while Selina looked at her before smirking as she raised her hand holding Star's ring getting her to look surprised as she turns back to Carol "Give that back!"
Selina smirked before throwing her ring back to her before looking back to the others "I'm good at what I do."
Poison Ivy walked up besides Selina "I thought you would go to Batman instead of running here Catwoman." getting the others to look in surprise, sure they never heard of Catwoman but the Bat of Gotham is a well known urban legend and to hear he exist gave this Catwoman more credit.
"I could but it's too dangerous so I might as well get out before curiosity kills this cat." Selina said as she looked at the villains gathered around "You know? We should get together form a team."
The others looked to each other Giganta just crossed her arms "Why?"
"Because why not, we're villains, and like any villains there is "heroes"." as soon she said heroes the other girls glower in anger except Star Sapphire who just looked miffed, seeing this she smirked "Oh seems like you already met these heroes, does the name Teen Titans mean something." and like that the girls all looked angry "Oh it does? Than shouldn't this be the easiest thing to do, what better to fight a team of heroes than a team of villains."
(Later that day.)
"So who do you think Babs friend is like?" Shoutaro said as he sits down with the girls who looked up also curious.
"Whoever they are we are sure to be just as elated to be friends with them." Diana said before hearing a crash seeing the new student who came last week laughing at poor Garth who tripped "Hmm. It appears Selina Kyle has acquired some new friends." she said as she narrows her eyes.
"Did somebody say "New friend"?" Someone said behind her getting their attention they see they see a blond pigtail girl with a blue and red highlights she is also wearing a split red/blue long-sleeve jacket, shorts, and long boots with the color swapping on each article of clothes, she smiled at the group blowing a bubblegum which popped.
Diana was confused "No. I said, "New friends." Plural." Diana corrected.
"Yay! Leeny-Beanie." Babs cry got the others attention.
"Babsy-wabsy!" The new girl said who saw Babs crawled on the table knocking her friends food off before leaping into Harleen's arms who laughed a bit before setting her down.
"Are you just getting here?" Babs said happy to see her best friend again.
"Gotta be fashionably late on my first day." Harleen said also happy to meet her friend again.
Babs looked to the others to introduce "Everyone, this is Harleen, my GBFF."
Kara looked confused until Zee said "Gotham Best Friend Forever." getting her to "Oh".
Diana walked over to Harleen with her hands out "It is our pleasure to welcome you to-" before she was shocked by Harleen who took her hand with an overcharged hand buzzer (Non fatal but still stings like a-[GAG])
After letting go Babs chuckled "Ah! Hand buzzer. Classic Harleen. Isn't that high-larious?" Diana wants to disagree as her hand throbs in pain "You have not changed a bit."
"Not true. I got a new flower..." Harleen said before pulling out a flower which hosed an unsuspecting Jess off her chair, "...a new whoopee cushion." pulling out the whoopee cushion as she blast the air out and tossing it as it lands on Kara before she made her way to Zee "And I got this here invisible ink..." pulling out a pen which squirts ink on a surprised Zee, Harleen expect it to disappear but it doesn't as she looked at the pen she saw she took the wrong one "Oops. That's the one with the super permanent industrial ink. Sorry."
Babs was laughing at her old friends antics "So funny. But you got to save some jokes for after school Harley-Barley." getting an alarmed look from the others.
"Uh... after school?" Karen said in concern.
Babs oblivious of their concern just nods "Yeah. I thought we could give Harleen a tour of Metropolis. Doesn't that sound fun?" Babs said in excitement.
Not wanting to hurt Babs feeling Diana in a strained voice says "It would be our honor." getting the others to look surprised.
"See youse all then then." Harleen said waving goodbye before holding Babs arms in hers and in sync made their way out of the cafeteria.
Once the two Gotham friends are gone the others start to complain to Diana.
Jess "What are you doing?" said in concern.
Zee "I can't get that out with magic." said showing the stain on her clothes.
Karen "She is cray-cray!" said nervously.
Kara "The worst 20 seconds of my life and I've been to the Phantom Zone." said as she stood up unintentionally launching the whoopee cushion behind her.
All while Diana took a deep breath "It is our divine duty as hosts to offer hospitality to this new guest." she as he turns to the others "Plus, she is very important to Barbara for some reason. Therefore we must make an effort."
"We should give her a chance guys, she might be a little too much to us now, but maybe once we get to know her more we can be good friends with her." Shoutaro said as he dust off his fedora "Plus this means a lot to Babs so if anything you should at least try for her sake." getting the others to sit down but hearing a fart came from blushing Kara got their attention "Maybe we should give that back to her?"
(Metropolis After School)
(Subway Station)
As the group made their way to the to the subway they each payed a quarter to past the turnstile gate, all except Harleen who jumped over Diana in disapproval payed for her before making her way to the others 'I have a feeling this will be an arduous evening.' Diana thought in dismay.
(Park)
Jess was relaxing as she fed the pigeons who ate in peace before Harleen ran in laughing scaring the pigeon much to Jess's annoyance.
(Arcade)
Kara is trying to beat her high score she only needs to beat this level and she-"What do those things do? How come ya hit that button? Which pigeon are you? That one? That one?" Harleen buts in and cost Kara the game seeing the game over screen Harleen looked disappointed "Hmm. Not very good, are ya?" before walking away getting Kara to rip the joystick out in anger and crushing it in her hands.
(Pier)
Shoutaro was walking around with some Ice cream before he felt Harleen grab his arm "Hey Lets go on this ride." she said pulling him over to the spinning cups and spun them like crazy, as he wobbles off he felt her grab his arm again "Lets go on that next." pulling him to the bumper carts and getting bumped into the others as he scream to regain control, as he makes his way to the bench he was intercepted before he finds himself on a roller coaster looking pale next to a laughing Harleen.
(Sweet Justice)
Zee ordered Harleen and herself some cupcakes and as she sets it down ready to eat her treat only to hear Harleen eating hers obnoxiously, Zee recoiled in disgust but she feels even more queasy as she felt some of Harleen's cupcake crumbs fly out of her mouth and onto her face, unable to take it anymore she ran to the washroom leaving her cupcake behind.
(Movie Theater)
Karen sat down to watch her favorite teen vampire, werewolf romance movie (Not Twilight) as she is enjoying the movie she saw Harleen sat next to her, a little nervous she tries to talk to her "Uh... do you... do you like this series?"
"Love it." Harleen said before looking at Karen mischievously "That's why I read all the spoilers." before grabbing an alarm Karen and whispering in her ear spoiling Karen for the movie while Harleen laughs.
(Back to the Subways)
As the group made their way back they all pay to cross the gate Diana knowing Harleen isn't gonna pay decides to pay for Harleen, Harleen seeing this decides to have some fun as she cartwheels back and forth causing Diana to keep feeding the gate until she ran out off quarters "You gotta manage your finances better, babe." Harleen said before making her way to the others leaving Diana to glower in restrain anger.
(Later that day Teen Titan HQ)
The others were sprawled out on the sofa and floor groaning in exhaustion "So happy I can't feel pain right now." Kara said as she stare at the ceiling.
Zee who found herself in a familiar position says "Babs has to know what a disaster that was."
"Whoo-hoo!" Babs cried in excitement as she slid down and looking at her friends expectantly "So? Best day ever?" the others look unsure but Babs is too excited "Ah! I knew you'd love Harleen as much as she loves you. Which is why..." Babs said before pulling out her phone "I booked activities for us for the entire next year. Boop!" the others dig out their phones to see the notifications "I know what you're thinking. Why stop at one year? We could do five years. Boop. Or 50 years. Boop. Ooh, we should make sure we get old and die on the same day, and can have one big besties gravestone. I'll invite Harleen over and we can figure out what it'll say." As Babs rambled on the others notice what Babs is implying.
Jess looked concern "Um... you, uh...You want to tell Harleen about our secret headquarters?"
"I do not believe that is prudent." Diana said in protest.
"Super not prudent." Zee also said.
Babs cocked her head in confusion "Huh? Why?" not seeing a problem.
The girls was looking for excuses and Kara found one "There aren't enough chairs." Kara said abruptly before burning every chair in the lair.
Well the girls "Laments" about not having chairs Shoutaro just gave a flat look "You could've just said that a secret headquarters should be y'know secret, right?" getting the others to look embarrassed having to burn some of their furniture's.
Babs seeing how the other reacted she pieced together the pieces and came to an uncomfortable conclusion "Wait. Do you... not want to hang out with Harleen?"
The Girls tries to deny it but Babs wants answers seeing Diana's Lasso she took it "Lasso of Truth!" after lassoing her friends they know they can't lie "How 'bout now?"
Jess "Harleen is the worst."
Karen "Worse than the worst."
Zee "Just when I thought she couldn't get worse, she got worse."
Diana "I do not enjoy her company."
Shoutaro "I honestly find her tiring but really not as bad as they do."
Kara "It's like if an evil scientist wanted to create the most annoying person ever, they still wouldn't come close to competing with her."
Babs gasp while Shoutaro looked to Kara "Kara I like that your being honest, but your not tied up so you don't need to say anything." Kara looked down seeing she wasn't lassoed, with a embarrassed chuckle she slips in with the others.
Babs looked disappointed as she lets go of the lasso "Harleen has been trying so hard to be friends with you guys and this is how you repay her? At least Shoutaro doesn't find her that bad."
Jess feeling bad try to console her "Babs, we didn't mean-"
But Babs doesn't want to hear it "Yes you did mean. You meaned a lot," Babs said as tears starts to form "You mean meanies." Babs turns her back to them "And I'm sorry, but if this is how you're gonna treat my best friend, then, then, then... maybe we shouldn't be friends." getting gasps from the others.
While they were apologizing Babs starts to climb the chute, only to slip over and over until she turns around and grab Shoutaro's hand making their way to the railway to Shoutaro's detective firm "Are you sure you want me to go with you?" Shoutaro said to Babs who nodded with a Sigh he looks to the others "I'll look after her." getting the others to nod as they went to the cart 'Philip has too many hobbies.'
(Shoutaro,s Detective Firm)
As Babs sulked on the sofa Shoutaro placed a cup of coffee in front of her "You can't stay mad at them forever you know." not receiving a reply he sighed "You know they don't mean to hurt your feelings but Harleen is a little too much."
"But Harleen is my best friend and I thought my new friends would also be good friends with her." Babs said feeling more down than before "At least your giving her a chance."
Shoutaro nodded "Babs you know how I don't really care how annoying she is, as long as your happy with her than I won't say anything against that because your my friend and as long as your happy than I'm fine with it." he said smiling before getting up "And I'm sure the others feels the same."
Babs nods a bit but still feeling sad about her other friends before feeling a buzz [Hey! Babsy found a comic shop yous wanna come check it out?] Babs looked hesitant before replying "Okay, and could I bring someone?" she asked before looking at Shoutaro who just drink his coffee as he read some noir novels [Sure the more the merrier!] after hanging up she looks to Shoutaro "Do you want to hang out with me and Harleen."
Shoutaro looked hesitant but seeing her face looking downcast he decides to nod "Sure." he smiled seeing a small one on Babs.
(Metropolis Comics shop)
Harleen waited until she saw her friend coming with the guy from earlier he was a hoot, she waved them down screaming "Babsie over here!"
As they made their way to her Babs glomped Harleen in a hug, Harleen looked confused but happy to return it.
"Well what are standing outside for? Come on yous two let see what they have." Harleen said pulling Babs in while Shoutaro just followed behind.
(Comics store inside)
While they were browsing Harleen found a comic that Babs would like "Ooh, Babsie, look." pulling a comic out to show her "A Space Joker versus Caveman Batman one shot variant cover." but seeing Babsie not being Babsie got Harleen concern "What's the matter? It ain't in mint condition?" she turns to the clerk "Hey, Freckles, what kind of shop you running here?" screaming at him as he yelps and run only to be hit by the comic Harleen was holding.
"No. It's not that. It's just..." Babs was trying hard not to cry "My Metropolis friends are being jerks." Harleen gave Shoutaro a dirty look but Babs spoke up "Not Shoutaro and maybe Philip but you never met him so I don't think he counts, but he wasn't being a jerk but the others were and, and... we can't hang out with them anymore." Shoutaro gave them a sad look while Harleen comforts her, Babs then perks up "But it's okay.
It'll be just you and me against the world. Just like it was in Gotham City." Babs then turns to Shoutaro who was reading some comic about the Question "And with Shoutaro it will be even better."
Harleen seeing Babs back to her old self but also trying to include this guy she couldn't help but feel like Babs is getting feelings for him, Harleen pulled Babs into a side hug "Aw, Babsie-Wabsie...We can totally hang out, if that's what you want," Babs smiled at that but Harleen wasn't done "Or... we could go for a nice drive in the country with some girls I met. It'll be fun, We can even bring your boyfriend with us." Babs was looking concern at first until she blushed at the last part thankfully Harleen whispered it so only Babs heard.
"Oh, no I mean sure but I don't think Shoutaro would like that I mean he wouldn't say no but, but I mean should we I don't kno-" Babs ramble was cut off as Harleen with a teasing look as she covers her mouth.
"It's okay Babsie you don't need ta get all bent outa shape about it." Harleen said softly before letting go "If ya wanna come with him I can just ask?"
Babs shook her head "No no, um I mean we could ask? right?" Harleen nods as they made their way to Shoutaro who looked up "Um, Shoutaro I don't mean to, I mean do you want to hang out with us?" Babs said nervously "I mean hang out with Harleen's friends I mean."
Shoutaro shrugs "I guess sure if you want me there?" he said getting Babs to smile at him grateful he was sticking with her.
Harleen grabbed both Shoutaro and Babs in a hug "Then what are we waiting for lets go."
(Country side)
A lone mailbox was standing firm in its peaceful stand no mails today just a nice relaxing-whats that sound? musiBASH!
Laughters were heard from a car driving thru as Doris holding a baseball bat smash every mailbox they pass "Home run!" BASH! "Grand slam!"
Inside the car the other girls were laughing at the vandalism except for two Babs looked nervous while Shoutaro looked annoyed especially as Carol kept asking him what Hal is doing "Look I don't know what he's doing now and no I'm not gonna call him."
Harleen seeing how uncomfortable Babs was ask in concern "You okay, Babsie?"
Babs now grabbing Shoutaro's sleeve in support answered "Yeah, sure..." only to wince as Doris smashed another mailbox "Um, just so I understand, we're destroying mailboxes so we can replace them with nicer, better mailboxes, right?" she asked with a little hope.
"No! We're destroying them because they're wooden stumps of death that people stuff full of other dead trees." Pam said with some venom in her getting Babs to look concern.
Selina who was driving the whole time reasures Babs "Babs, honey, don't you listen to Pam. We're doing this because it's fun." she said before driving closer to the trees as Doris looked confused before smashing into some branches getting the others to laugh.
Babs looked around in panic realizing Harleen's is friends with a bad crowd pulled on Shoutaro's sleeve seeing her concern look like she's going to burst he decides this is enough "Stop the car!" his shout caused them to stop "Sorry but I don't think Babs can handle this much fun so can you let us out." he said as he held Babs hand as he scoots out but Bab also grabbed Harleens hand before they made their way out of the car.
Babs turns back before pulling out her phone "Thanks Shoutaro, I think they bought it. Okay, let me call my dad. Maybe he can take us to the movies or something." as she was scrolling in her contacts but looks sad at her friends name.
Harleen doesn't look like she wants to go "Babsie... I, uh... don't wanna go to the movies."
Getting both their attention Babs nervously asked "Oh, well... what do you want to do?"
Harleen couldn't look her in the eye as she turns to the car where Doris was waiting patiently "Come on, these mailboxes aren't gonna smash themselves." (This is her being patient.)
Harleen was conflicted she wants to stay with Babs but she also wants to go with the others she was torn until she saw Shoutaro looking at Babs with concern knowing Babs won't be alone she turned "Sorry, Babsie. I'll, uh, see ya tomorrow, all right?"
Babs watched Harleen jumped back in the car as it drove off "Oh, okay."
Shoutaro saw how down Babs looked just put his hand on her shoulder "Babs are you okay?" Babs didn't say anything as she just walked back towards the city, Shoutaro looked to her "Ah mou." he said as he pull out his Stag phone "Babs do you want to wait until my ride comes?"
Babs stopped before nodding as she sat down with shoutaro joining her "Babs you know Harleen is still your friend right?" he said getting her to nod "And the other girls are still your friends you know?" Babs said nothing but she did lean on him.
"I just want Harleen to be friends with them too." Babs said until seeing to her surprise the HardBoiler driving up.
Shoutaro pulled Babs up before giving her a helmet "Come on maybe some Sweet Justice would cheer you up."
(While with the other Titans)
Diana looked down as the others weren't feeling that good either "I hope Babs is alright."
"She's fine she tougher than she looks plus Shoutaro is with her." Kara said hoping to cheer the group up.
"Maybe she doesn't want to be friends anymore." Karen said feeling worst after saying that.
Diana knowing how hard Babs would fight to keep her friendship stood up "No. Our bonds are not so fragile that we will lose her forever, we just have to believe and have faith that Barbara will come back and once she does we will offer her our apologies and hope she will view us as friends again."
The others start to feel hopeful but they were interrupted by the TV "Metropolis is in chaos as a team of super villains ran amok in Metropolis we need help!"
The girls looked alarmed but a car driving passed got their attention as they new who the group of new villains were, as they dash out to see the villains laughing as they drove into the side walk as people scramble out of the way "Come, sisters, to battle!" Diana said seeing the wanton destruction.
"Shouldn't we call Babs?" Jess said not feeling right without calling her.
Diana also not liking the idea but she still she must answer the call of duty "Batgirl will join us when she is ready. And Double will also join with her."
The others looked hesitant but nods as they all suit up.
(Metropolis downtown)
As the Villains was enjoying their joyride they screech to a stop once they saw who blocked their way.
Standing before them are the Teen Titans who stood ready for a showdown "Did you honestly think this sort of antisocial behavior would not attract our attention?" Diana asked
Catwomen smirked as she and the others steps out of the car "Of course, we did." as she and the rest stood besides her "Why do you think we did it?" she said before charging with her team.
Diana was surprised before charging with her own as both sides clash.
With an explosive clash both Supergirl and Giganta lands further from the others but still facing each other Giganta looked smugly at the girl of steel who smirks before flying full on and crashing Giganta into several buildings.
Passing them is Zatanna slinging spells at Livewire who was firing back with her own lightning bolts and seeing Zatanna teleport herself to create distance, Livewire turns herself into lightning to catch up.
Bumblebee is seen charging at Poison Ivy who called out her vines and roots to shield her as the tendrils of plants protect Ivy she also command them to lash out to hit the little bug, but Bumblebee skillfully dodge the plants as she looks for an opening to fire.
Star Sapphire hovers over Green Lantern who constructed a giant tennis racket whacking away Star's burning hearts.
Catwoman after her clash flex her claws before firing them at a surprised Wonder Woman who defended everyone of the tiny daggers. Catwoman looking at her claws seeing how many layers she's got left decides to bring in her secret weapon "Looks like we're evenly matched." Catwoman said.
"Evenly matched?" Wonder Woman questioned before getting out of her stance "Ha. Do not make me laugh-"SLAM
Wonder Woman was interrupted by something big and heavy crashing into her head as she was sent flying she heard an unfamiliar "Sure made me laugh!" followed by a mad cackling.
Wonder Woman groaned in pain while Catwoman saunters over like a cat teasing a rat "Meet Harley Quinn." showing Harley who wore a full body black and red jester outfit with white pompoms dangling off her hat, puffy white wrist cuffs and a white collar with pompoms on each ends. Jumping around and doing crazy things all while laughing "She's fun."
Harley hearing Giganta's scream she turns to see Supergirl ready her heat vision Harley smiled as she jumps in front of a surprised Giganta holding a mirror which reflected the laser eye beam back at a surprised Supergirl, Supergirl in a daze looks up "Glad I could give you something to reflect on." Harley said laughing at her own joke.
Giganta who was smirking before is now looking confused "I don't get it."
Poison Ivy is trying to find the tiny Titan but couldn't due to how small and fast Bumblebee is after lining her shot and locking on Bumblebee feels confident at her shot "Gotcha!" she said silently only to reel back when someone came up out of nowhere.
"Here comes the SWAT team!" Harley said as she slap Bumblebee away screaming with a fly swatter, turning around to her old roommate who tolerated her for a year she waved at Ivy "Got rid of your pest problem Ivy." only getting a huff from the plant girl.
Both Zatanna and Green Lantern were back to back defending a barrage of exploding hearts and electric shocks on both sides, while they try to think of something to get out of this some strange girl popped up suddenly "Check out my new website, it's !" she said pulling out her phone before grabbing a bomb with a smiley face painted on and a lit fuse, both girl looked in panic and since they can't move they shut there eyes and brace themselves BOOM!
(Sweet Justice)
Babs was holding on to Shoutaro who drove up to Sweet Justice thankfully the bike is in civilian mode so it looks like a cool looking Honda CBR1000RR after stopping Babs hops off while Shoutaro finds a place to park.
Babs waited until Shoutaro came back and made their way to the door which almost slammed into Babs if not for Shoutaro being there "Thanks." Babs said while Shoutaro nods as they made their way to Barry.
"Oh hey, Babs. What's up? You just missed your friends." Barry said before seeing Shoutaro "Oh hey Shoutaro." while Shoutaro waved back Babs sighed.
"You're right, Barry. I do miss them." Babs said dejectedly Shoutaro looked sad while Barry looked concern.
"Uh-oh. I know the blues when I see 'em." Barry said before getting an idea to cheer her up "Hey! Hey! Hey! I got an idea. Wanna try my latest ice cream concoction? It's a jalapeno toffee twirl sundae!" Barry said excitedly while pulling out said sundae, Shoutaro looked perplexed by the combinations while Babs looked grateful.
"Thanks." taking a spoon and ate it only to spit it out "That's awful!"
Barry looked confused "Oh, uh, too much jalapeno?" he asked while Babs is trying to clean her tongue "Not enough toffee? I knew it needed more salt!"
"So another failure Barry?" Shoutaro said knowing how out there Barry's new ice creams are some are a hit and lot more are a miss.
"No, no, I like the jalapeno. And the toffee." Babs said still trying to get the taste out "I just can't deal with both of them at the same time."
"Oh, well, maybe you can just enjoy 'em separately?" Barry said he wanted to use his powers but he isn't good at it yet so he just puts the ice cream away in the miss bin.
"I still don't get how the jalapeno spicy ice cream got the hit when others that are actually sweet got a miss." Shoutaro said as he was surprised how good the spicy ice cream is even though he thought it would be a miss.
While the boys were talking Babs was mulling over what Barry just said 'if the jalapeno taste bad with the toffee , and the toffee taste bad with the jalapeno, but they taste great by themselves just fine' "[dramatic gasp]"Maybe I can enjoy them separately..."" Babs said getting both boys attention.
"Yeah, that's what I just said, remember?" Barry said
Babs quickly pulled out her phone "I have to make a call."
(Back to the Fight)
The fight was hard enough but now with Harley and her off the wall antics made it that much harder, the girls are not only trying to focus on who they're fighting but also looking over their shoulders for the chaotic jester to hit them from behind, and that paranoia led them to this predicament.
Wonder Woman glared at the villain girls as they tied her and her friends with her own lasso of truth thankfully they only care about tying them up and not ask questions.
Catwoman sauntered around the bound Titans holding the lasso she chuckled "Looks like you've been declawed, Teen Titans. Harley, why don't you put an end to this cat and mouse game?" she said as Harley steps up.
Giggling a bit she pulled out her mallet before letting go to spit in her hands and grabbing it eyes gleaming with anticipation as she cocks it like a shotgun, slowly she walked up to the Titans raising the hammer over her head as the Titans brace themselves [ring ring ring] a phone call? As everyone looked confused "Oops, hang on." Harley says as she digs in her pocket and pulling out her seeing who called "Sorry, gotta take this." she walks off "Hello, yeah I can totally talk now."
Catwoman shook off her confusion "Uh, what, no, you can't just...We're in the middle of something here!" she said in annoyance before feeling the lasso felt loose looking back she saw the Titans glaring at them "Uh,oh."
While the Villain Girls were trying to regain control Harley was chatting up with her friends "Babsie, what's goin' on?" [Harleen! You're my jalapeno! And my Metropolis friends are my toffee! And I don't need to eat you both at the same time!] Harley laughed "Babzadoodles, I love ya, but I got no idea what your talkin' about." [Don't you see? You don't have to get along with my Metropolis friends. And I don't have to get along with your Metropolis friends. We can both still be best friends and do the stuff we like to do.] [Like go to the comic shop...] "Babsie?" [or go hang gliding,] "Babsie..." [which I know we've never...actually done, but I have this feeling-] "Babsie!" Harley shout out followed by an explosion finally getting her friend to calm down [Yeah?] "There's no one I'd rather hang glide with than you." Harley said happy her friend isn't gonna leave her behind until more explosions go off behind her "Oopsie, gotta run." Harley hang up before screaming a war cry as she charge back into battle.
(Back at Sweet Justice)
Barry is pulling out more samples while Shoutaro took some to taste test much to his chagrin "How about this?" Shoutaro shook his head, "What about this one?" Shoutaro spits to the side coughing a no "Mm guess it's back to the drawing board"
"Uh, Barry? I'm going to need those ingredients to go. I have to find my friends." Babs said determine to regain her friendship.
Shoutaro recovered after coughing out the last bit only to wide eye at the TV showing the battle "Uh, Babs we need to go." Babs looked confused following his gaze she saw why, with a nod both heroes quickly made their way to the hardboiler and drove off "Philip time to suit up." as he placed the buckle on and slot in the memories JOKER CYCLONE "Henshin!"Cyclone! Joker! (Technical guitar to orchestral hit)
(Back at the Fight)
Wonder Woman was pushed back by Livewire's electric blast, while guarding the shocking blast Harley skulked behind Wonder Woman with a sinister giggle "Time to uneven the odds." Harley said raising her hammer high to slam down on Wonder Woman, only for a baterang to cut one off her arms, dropping the hammer from both surprise and pain she looked behind her to see a shadow figure "Huh?"
And the shadow reveals herself to be "Batgirl!" her friends cried in relief and happy to see her.
Except Harley "Ugh! Batgirl! I thought I finally saw the last of you in Gotham." she said as she picks up her hammer and rest it on her shoulder "What gives? Miss my explosive personality?" before pointing the hammers face which opens up to reveal a smiley face rocket that fired towards her BOOM!
The smoke clears to show Double holding Batgirl taking the brunt off the explosion but she was nicked by the neck "We're not the ones getting blown away Miss Quinn."
"Double!" the Girls said
Harley narrowed her gaze at him "And who're you suppose to be? Skull?" Harley said readying her hammer.
"The Boss couldn't be here so I'm here instead." Double said also readying his stance.
Batgirl stood besides Double narrowing her eyes at her "We're taking you down Harley Quinn and unlike in Gotham Joker won't break you out."
Harley laughs "I like to see you try." she said challengingly as they stare each other down... until sirens can be heard in the distance.
"The cops. Let's go!" Catwoman ordered as the Villain Girls made their way to the car.
Harley looked to her team retreating but seeing her arch nemesis right there "Nuts to that!" but she was grabbed "Hey!" and was dragged away by Giganta all while Harley kept struggling "No, no. Please! I was gonna hit her with this, and say I'm "board" with her. [shrieks] Please!" she cried as she pulled out a 2x4 out of nowhere, the others just watched bewildered as they not only dragged her to the car but also tied her in a seat belt straight jacket "You thought we was enemies in Gotham, Bratgirl? Well, you ain't seen nothing yet!" Harley screamed from her seat as Giganta picked up the car and jog off "Not by a long shot!" was the last thing Harley said before they are gone leaving the Titans in awkward silence.
Batgirl just watch them leave until she felt Double tapping her shoulder looking behind her she saw her friends smiling at her.
Wonder Woman stepped forward "Batgirl, I am-"
"No, I am so sorry. I am really, really, really sorry." Batgirl interrupted her looking guilty "I shouldn't have ditched you guys and-" looking at the lasso she thought of a way to show how sorry she was "Wait. There's only one way to know that I mean it." Batgirl said reaching for the lasso.
Only for Wonder Woman to hold her hand and bringing her to face them "We are sorry as well. And we are happy that you have returned."
Green Lantern walked over "Yeah. No more splitting up ever again, okay?" she said as the others joined "Not with Catwoman and her crew out there."
"Totally. We need each other now more than ever." Supergirl said
Batgirl unable to hold herself back pulled them into a group hug "Aw, I missed you, SBFFs!"
Supergirl looked to Zatanna "Super Best Friends Forever." getting a nod.
After the hug Wonder Woman looked happy "We should celebrate our reignited friendship! To the Sweet Justice!" Wonder Woman said as she led the girls.
Batgirl stayed behind before turning to Double "Thanks for being there with me and sorry for dragging you with me too."
Double shrugged "You needed time, and you know where to go when you need to relax." Double said before seeing a scar on Batgirl's neck holding her face to examine it he didn't see Batgirl blush "Lets get this looked at before meeting with the others." getting Batgirl to nod as Double walked over to his bike.
'Whats wrong with me I feel weird when Shoutaro does that [gasp] does that mean...nah.' Batgirl thought before she was handed a helmet looking up at Double waiting.
"C'mon gotta patch that up before we celebrate." Double said while Batgirl sat behind him.
Batgirl blushed as she hold his abdomen close to her 'But if it was maybe it wouldn't be so bad, right.'
(Next Day Comic shop)
Babs browsed through the comics before gasping "Ooh. Harleen, I found it!" Babs said in excitement as she jumps in place.
Harleen looked in awe "Issue six of the Gotham Crow limited series! Finally!" she said as she read the first five issues but couldn't find the sixth.
Babs happy her friend looked happy until she saw an injured wrist "Hey, what happened to your wrist?"
Surprised and caught off guard Harleen hesitantly made an excuse "Oh, I, uh... Messed around with Doris's bat and sprained my wrist?" Harleen said before seeing Babs neck "What happened to your neck?"
Babs looked surprised "Oh, um.."
Seeing the hesitant look Harleen grins "Don't tell me, is that a hickey?" seeing Babs face went from surprise to a blushing mess caused Harleen to laugh "Well looks like something happen when I left?"
"No no nothing happened honest." Babs said waving her arms as she looked for to distract from the issue.
"Really?" Harleen said
"Yep nothing happen." Babs said looking anywhere before seeing something that made her gasp "A new Joker vs. Batman imprint!"
Harleen looked surprised "What."
"Let's read it together right now." Babs said excitedly.
Harleen looked annoyed "See, why's the first panel always gotta be Batman? And is his razor broken? Why does he always have stubble? Can't he make himself look presentable like the Joker?"
Babs also annoyed "Um... Excuse me. The fact that he doesn't shave shows the commitment he has to the city. He's not even taking time out for personal hygiene. He cares that much."
While both girls went into one off there geek off both of them showed genuine smiles happy that they can hang out again.
