Suicide Squad: Ballroom Blitz
Chapter 39 (A Burning World, Part 3)
Author's Note: I'm also planning on creating a crossover spin-off story with SUICIDE SQUAD and TEEN TITANS GO. Trust me, you'll love it... keep an eye out later today or tomorrow for it.
Disclaimer: Warner Bros. and DC are the owners of "Suicide Squad", the DCEU, etc.
"So, what is that you want from me?" asked Harley, who was strangely finding the woman in front of her attractive.
Amylase stroked her fingers around Harley's chest, and said, "Oh, don't worry, you'll find out soon enough... but first, I have to take care of your other companions."
Harley smirked, and said, "Well, good luck with that, honey, cause I have a feeling you're in for a hell of a beating."
The young woman brought her face downward so that they were now eye-to-eye with each other, her lips dangerously close to Harley's own.
"I accept the challenge..."
Looking around the laboratory, Deadshot said, "This Amylase girl or whatever her name is sure loves science stuff."
"Yeah, no kidding," replied Boomerang, looking at his reflection through one of the test tubes.
"HARLEY!" yelled out Killer Croc, much to everyone's surprise. "WHERE ARE YOU?!"
"Hey!" exclaimed Deadshot. "You can't just be yelling out like that, man!"
Killer Croc looked at him, and asked, "Why not?"
All of a sudden, a group of more plant-like creatures appeared from out of the shadows, and Deadshot groaned. "That's why..."
He whipped out a few of his pistols, and said, "All right, you leafy freaks, I'm getting tired of shooting all of you, so why not spare us the trouble, and just bring us to where Harley is at?"
As an answer, the plant-like monsters simply charged towards the Squad, and Slade sighed. "You warned them..."
"Guess they aren't very smart, then," chuckled Deadshot, before proceeding on with slaying the creatures.
"You know, for a girl that said she's taken," said Harley. "You're playing with fire right now."
She and Amylase were still dangerously close to each other. "Pray tell..."
"Well, gee, I dunno, you've been groping me, and now, it looks like you're about to-"
Before Harley could finish, she felt her lips crashing down onto hers, and Harley gulped. This can't be good.
But suddenly, she felt Amylase pull away, and watched as the strange woman began walking away.
"What the hell was that for?" cried Harley, both angry and confused.
Amylase turned to look back at her, a sly smile on her face. "You'll see..."
Harley was about to yell some more, but all of a sudden, she began feeling strange. "What the...?"
"Oh, don't worry, Quinzel," laughed Amylase, a dark-yet-pleased expression now on her face. "Everything is going according to plan."
As the last creature fell, Deadshot groaned, feeling annoyed, and cried, "Where the hell did she put Harley?"
"Maybe up there?" Slade replied, pointing to a locked door that had a sign that read "DO NOT ENTER".
Deadshot walked over to it, but before opening it, he said, "Hold on, man... this seems a little too obvious..."
Slade began to respond, but then, Boomerang said, "Screw it, I'm bustin' open the damn thing!"
Letting out a battle cry, Boomerang charged into the room, running into the darkness...
... and a few seconds later, the thief was sent flying back outside, a vine wrapped tightly around him.
"Do something!" yelled the thief, just as the vine began shaking him around like a rag doll.
Slade tried to slice it in half, but like the previous time, that only sent electrical waves into Boomerang's body.
"Will you stop with the slicing thing already?!"
As Slade put away his sword, Killer Croc grabbed the vine with his hands, and bit down as hard as he could, which caused the vine to release Boomerang, and quickly retreat back into the room.
CRASH!
Deadshot ran as fast as he could over to his friend, who had fallen onto a now-broken table that had contained multiple vials and glass containers (luckily, they had been empty), and he began to help him up. "You all right, man?"
"Peachy," growled Boomerang, shaking off the shards of glass stuck to his jacket. "I'm gonna kill that Amy bitch when I see her."
Deadshot chuckled, and said, "We'll do it together..."
A few minutes later, after entering another room, the Squad saw themselves looking at an unstrapped table, as well as a giant computer screen.
"Damn, this bitch must be effing rich!" said Boomerang. "Look at the size of that damn thing!"
"Why, thank you... that almost makes me not want to kill you."
Everyone turned to see the woman that Waller had listed in the folder she'd given to them, and Boomerang let out a wolf whistle.
"Amylase Pile, right?" said Deadshot. "Or is it something else? Cause that's a pretty shitty name for a girl like you..."
Amylase smiled, and said, "I can see why she likes you..."
Deadshot then frowned, and pulled out his rifle. "Where is she?"
"Oh, she'll be with us very shortly," replied Amylase. "She's a bit... occupied... for the moment..."
Great, now she's talking like the damn Joker, thought Deadshot, who then cocked his weapon. "I'm warning you, sweetheart, don't make me regret breaking my one rule."
"Well, that's a rule you're gonna have to break tonight if you want to save her," said Amylase, a sly grin on her face.
"Oh, trust me, I'm slowly starting to consider it," replied Deadshot. "And why all of these damn shadows and darkness and stuff? Can't pay the damn electricity bill?"
Amylase simply smiled at the assassin, who was about to yell at her when he heard Harley's voice. "Oh, Floyd..."
Deadshot turned around, starting to feel relieved from hearing the sound of her voice, but then, he felt a strong force of energy knock him off his feet, and sent him crashing into the computer's control panel.
The rest of the Squad turned around, and saw Harley, who looked... different...
"Harley, look at me," said Slade, slowly walking over to her. "It's us, your friends-"
Whoosh!
"Thanks for joining me," mumbled a dazed and momentarily weak Deadshot.
Slade groaned in pain, and replied, "Don't mention it..."
As for Amylase, she walked over to the two of them, and Deadshot asked, "Ok, what the hell did you do to her, Amylase?"
Amylase rolled her eyes, and said, "I cannot believe you guys have yet to figured out what my real name is."
"Well, cut the bullshit, and tell us already," replied Slade.
However, before she could answer him, Boomerang went over to Harley, saying, "Look, Crazy Chick, I don't know what the hell that Plant Bitch did to you, but you need to chill a little bit, and think about-"
Whoosh!
"Why the hell hasn't this damn thing blown up yet?" growled a still-weakened Deadshot, who was now in the middle of Slade and Boomerang.
Amylase and Harley looked over at Killer Croc, who chuckled, and said, "I never took you for a cheater, Quinn..."
"Oh, you wanna go?" challenged Harley, walking up.
Boomerang slowly pulled out his cellphone, and turned on the recording camera.
"Man, what the hell are you doing?" asked Deadshot.
"What, this is, like, some PPV shit," replied Boomerang. "No one's ever gonna believe this!"
Deadshot and Slade just rolled their eyes.
