A/N Thank you all for reviewing!

Uncle J and I are close.

―Dad

"Finally."

Katherine pocketed her phone, a fond smile on her fact as she returned to resting her body against the side of the elevator. Her father, while somewhat seemingly an emotionless man whenever someone looked at him, was very constant in her life. He always protected her and never made her feel abandoned. She always knew that he would come for her just like Harley was confident that her beloved Puddin' would come for his pumpkin.

The brunette opened her eyes for a short moment when she heard Harley blissfully sigh and she didn't have to ask to know that it was concerning The Joker. Katherine smiled again as Harley stared at the screen of her phone, no doubt re-reading the message.

"Happy, Harley?"

Harley turned her head, pocketing her phone as she sent a winning smile to her friend."Uh-uh."

Katherine straightened as Harley jumped from foot to foot, clapping happily.

"We're gonna be a family again!"

The light haired woman crooned, eyes glazed over as she twirled around, sighing blissfully again."Oh, yippie!"

Katherine smiled, parting her lips to speak but before she could, the roof caved in and in jumped one of the monsters.

Before they could react, it attacked Harley, hitting her across the face.

Harley's lower lip jutted out as she was pinned to the side of the elevator."Hey! I was having a Happy Harley moment!"

Katherine grabbed its shoulders when Harley punched it and kept a hold on it as her friend shot it in the head, blowing it up. The monster crumbled to the ground, and Harley giggled, blowing aside a lock of hair.

She turned to Katherine, cocking her head."I love a good rough and tumble."

Katherine just rolled her eyes as Harley moved to the window, looking at her reflection. She fixed her pigtails, brushing aside stray hairs. Katherine kicked at the crumbled monster with her boot.

"These things are ugly."

Harley hummed, bat on her shoulder as she nodded."Uh-huh. They-"

Katherine looked up as a shadow came closer, cutting her friend off."We got another one!"

Harley looked up, simply staring as another demon smashed it's way into the elevator, shoving at Harley. The woman ducked as it attempted to punch her and she kicked it aside, sending it to Katherine who punched it. The dark monster stumbled as Harley hit it with her bat and Katherine knocked it's feet out from underneath it just in time for Harley to cave in its head.

Katherine let out a long sigh, brushing fingers through her brown locks as Harley continued to beat the dead thing until it was literally in pieces.

Harley smiled as she hit it with her bat, her laughs echoing.

"Die, die, die, die!"

Katherine yawned, blinking tiredly as the elevator doors pinged open, revealing the Squad who were aiming their weapons at them.

They stared at each other until Boomerang looked down at Harley.

"Uh, I think it's dead."

Harley straightened with a shrug."Just makin' sure."

Their gazes turned to Katherine who was back to leaning against the wall. Deadshot let his gaze trail over her, and he gave her the nod.

She offered them a wave."Hi, guys."

They stared at her one last time before walking off.

Harley, noticing her friend's tiredness, smiled as she grabbed Katherine's hand and led her out onto the floor.

"Come on, Kat."

Katherine followed, stepping over the crumbled monsters and met Deadshot who had waited. He walked beside her as they followed the group, eyeing her now and then.

"You good?"

She turned her head, looking up at him with a half-smile."Never better."

He smirked at her before walking off, no more words needed.

Harley giggled, leaning closer to her friend's ear."Awww, he's sweet. You should totally give him some sugar."

The female clown then turned to her best friend, eyes wide."But no hanky-panky, Kat. I don't want my niece or nephew witnessin' it from in there."

Katherine, rolling her eyes at Harley walked with her best friend to where the rest of the Squad were. It was a large office, and workstation cubicles filled nearly every open space. The lights were off, but they could faintly see what the layout was due to the outside from the windows. The soldiers fanned out, filling the spaces between the cubicles while the squad watched.

Katherine and Harley caught up with the group, the female clown popping her gum as she rested her bat over her shoulder.

"Huh!"Harley hummed, looking around with a bored look."I'm sure the suckers who work here are glad they're dead. I'd off myself if I had to work nine to five in here."

While Flag glared at Harley, Katherine let out a loud unladylike cackle.

The soldiers paused at each cubicle to look inside and, just as they were about to shout 'clear' at their leader they heard something.

Loud and heavy breathing.

"Something is in here, Flag!"

Everyone went quiet.

Well, everyone apart from Harley who was still popping her gum.

Flag looked around, turning his head as he tried to find the source of the laboured breathing.

The silence was quickly replaced as the roof caved in.

The soldiers and Flag shot at the monsters that were attacking them. Most of the Squad separated, fighting at all corners of the room. Killer Croc released a content growl as he took on a group of fiends while El Diablo backed off into a corner, refusing to fight.

Boomerang rolled back his shoulders, a wild look in his eyes."This is gonna be a bloodbath."

Katherine shrugged, pulling her gun out from its holster."I'm up for it."

Boomerang didn't seem to share her enthusiasm as he began to back away towards one of the cubicles as if to hide. Katherine's gaze followed him, and she looked unimpressed that he was willing to hide instead of fighting with the Squad.

She quirked her eyebrow."Pussy."

Boomerang playfully glared at her."I will knock your ass out, preggers. I don't give a fuck that you're pregnant."

He winked at her with a grin and she let out a breathy laugh.

He was joking, she knew that but Deadshot, who was stood behind her, as if living up to his word, snapped his head toward Boomerang, pointing his gun at him. Deadshot flipped his monocle into place as if showing that he had a perfect shot at Boomerang.

"Touch her, and i'll blow out whatever brains you have left."

Boomerang held up his hands in surrender with a chuckle.

The Australian turned, and Katherine watched, expecting him to hide out but, somewhat surprising her, he did take part in the fight as he swung at one of the monsters that came up behind Killer Croc.

Deadshot fired at anything that came at them, shouting out to Katherine."Sure you wanna take part in this one, kitten?"

Katherine smiled, a giggle leaving her as before she pressed a good luck kiss to her gun."Oh, honey, i'd never pass up some action."

Deadshot took out another demon, a suggestive smirk curved at his lips."I'll remember that."

Katherine merely rolled her eyes as she pulled the trigger.

She saw Harley almost bouncing on her feet as she giggled, rubbing her hands together."I'm fine, Harls, off ya go!"

Harley, knowing that her best friend was safe with Deadshot, let out a happy squeal as she jumped over a desk. The female clown lunged at one of the monsters, clinging to it like a koala would a tree. It spun around to get her off of it and Harley took advantage of that as she shot at the rest of the monsters.

"Wheee!

Harley locked her legs around the fiend tightly, bat pressed against its neck so that she could control it as she blew off the head of another demon.

Katherine watched her best friend from afar as she and Deadshot took on their own attackers, the trained assassin swiftly taking out those who opposed them. The two worked together skillfully, back to back so that they had eyes everywhere.

Until the demons saw Katherine.

Six months pregnant with only guns as her shield. Deadshot fought as he fired his guns but Katherine couldn't. She could hit now and then but not fight without risking herself and the child. They jumped over desks to get to her, snarling angrily.

"Fuck me!"Katherine swore as she tried to shoot them all, but they kept getting back up.

Katherine pressed closer to Deadshot, shouting."They're crowding over here!"

He looked around, seeing that they were being attacked from all around them. Deadshot blew the head off of one before he ordered her to move quickly, telling her what he wanted he to do.

"Move around me!"

The two, as if dancing, moved around in a small circle, Deadshot firing shots at those closest to them.

Katherine took out another gun and used both to defend herself, shouting out."A little help here!"

A growl was her response, and she looked up to see Killer Croc tearing apart those who were nearing her. She breathed a sigh of relief as he and Deadshot slaughtered and shot down those who were around them.

Killer Croc looked own at the pregnant woman."Ready, shorty?"

She frowned, confused.

"For what?"

Without warning, he picked her up as if she were light as a feather."Shoot!"

Katherine, eyes finding the fiends that were joining those who were already crowding them, pulled the triggers more times than she could count. She smiled as the dark figures began to crumble, falling to the floor and many began to follow. Killer Croc, using his free hand, quickly tore apart more that crowded him while Deadshot fired his gun at the rest.

They made a good team.

Katherine laughed gleefully as the force of a bullet took out half of the head of one of the fiends and she, copying Harley from earlier, cried out.

"Whee!"

Once it was safe, the pregnant woman was lowered to the ground Katherine looked up at Killer Croc.

He stared down at her, dropping the head of one of those who had tried to kill her.

"That was badass."

Killer Croc merely shrugged, a growl leaving him."I know."

He walked away, leaving her with Deadshot who turned to her with a chuckle.

"I think something like this would make a great first date, kitten. What do you say?"

She pretended to think, tapping her chin with her gun before she shrugged."Add in food, and you got yourself a deal!"

She could almost see him smile behind his mask as he nodded."Consider it done."

Katherine cocked her head, teeth sinking into her lower lip as Deadshot looked at her. Even though he wore a mask, she could feel his gaze burning into her. Katherine, as she stared at him, found herself finally understanding what Harley meant whenever the female clown told her about how she felt when The Joker stared at her.

She became lost.

"Get off of me!"

Deadshot and Katherine both blinked at the same time before turning their heads to see Flag being dragged away by the demons again. It was the second time they had targeted specifically Flag, and it confused Katherine.

Why are they so obsessed with him? Katherine thought, confused. It's not like he's that interesting.

Deadshot groaned in annoyance, shouting over for the Squad to return."They're after the asshole again!"

Everyone seemed annoyed as they all reluctantly left their fights.

Harley quickly jumped down from her desk, rushing over to the group. Boomerang, who had been stabbed with his weapon, pulled it from his chest, revealing a bunch of money he'd kept in his goodie, got up from his feet to join them.

Katherine and Harley stood together, Deadshot behind them. They all took corners, brandishing their weapons. Killer Croc smashed the heads of those who had Flag, pushing him in front of him.

"Circle up!"Deadshot shouted, and since they all saw him as their leader, they obeyed."Circle around him!"

Everyone but El Diablo circled Flag. The tattooed man stood alone, watching with a blank look on his face. Flag fought against those who had hold of him, wanting to join his soldiers who were still fighting those who opposed them.

Deadshot kept ahold of Flag, shaking his head."You die, we die."

Soon, too soon for Harley, it was over, and Harley watched with a large smile as the last fiend was killed, it shattering to a few pieces to the ground.

Harley giggled, waving her bat in the air."Oh, whatta show!"

Deadshot shoved Flag away from him, and the soldier gathered up his men."Clear. Everyone move out!"

The Squad, adrenaline running through their veins, spun around on their heels and left the room. Harley swung an arm around Katherine's shoulders as she skipped out onto an atrium balcony that circled the building complex.

For a second, all was silent.

Then the shots fired again, making Katherine roll her eyes."Can't a girl get a break?"

Boomerang shook his head, clicking his tongue on the roof of his mouth."Screw this."

Captain Boomerang hit the floor just as one of Flag's men was shot down. Boomerang crawled through the legs of the Squad; Pinky tucked into his jacket while the others shot back. Down on her knees so that she wouldn't get shot, Katherine reloaded her guns, eying her Squad as they gave as good as they got.

Everyone was fighting back.

All except El Diablo who was stood in the nearby corner, merely watching the fight.

Katherine got to her feet just as one of the creatures shot and missed her best friend. Harley, now having a chance to reload her own guns, got to her knees to hide while Katherine took over for her.

The pregnant woman aimed and shot those across the from her, smiling as they fell over the railing and down the floors below them.

She turned her head, aiming at another just as a shot was fired.

It hit the wall beside her head.

It had missed her by an inch.

Katherine swallowed thickly, worry in her eyes as Harley got to her feet. The female clown forgot about the shots being fired and grabbed her best friend.

"Kat!"Harley gasped, tapping her cheek as she mumbled to herself."Oh, no!"

Deadshot was suddenly by the two women, himself and Harley looking over Katherine. Deadshot glanced at the bullet now wedged in the wall, an inch from Katherine's head.

"Mother fucker!"

Deadshot grabbed the pregnant woman, pulling her aside to make sure that she was safe, taking off his mask. He turned to see El Diablo standing next to him, doing nothing.

Deadshot's eyes narrowed, and he pushed at the other man."Where you been, homie?"

El Diablo glowered at him, shrugging Deadshot's arms from him."This ain't my fight!"

"You know what?"Deadshot hissed at him, pointing."You don't stand for shit; you ain't about shit!"

"A pregnant woman almost got shot and, if you had been helping out, it could have been prevented."The hitman pointed at Katherine who was standing with her arm over her swollen stomach.."We could use your help! You wanna be a pussy and stand aside? Do whatever floats your boat. But we're in this together, whether we like it or not. One of us goes down, the rest of us go down with them."

"Hey, you listening to me?!"Deadshot shouted, hitting El Diablo's temple.

"Don't touch me, man!"

Deadshot chuckled harshly, pointing closer."Don't touch you? What are you gonna do?"

"Don't touch me!"

Deadshot tapped the other man's face, poking him in the chin and knocking on his forehead."I'm touching you; I'm touching you! Do something!"

El Diablo slapped his hands away, but Deadshot carried on, taunting him until finally, El Diablo shouted."You wanna see something?!"

"Oh, yeah, I wanna see-"

El Diablo shoved the other man away before he reached out, flames coming from his hands. He yelled out as he released more fire from his hands, killing more of them.

Katherine and Harley, as well as the rest of the Squad, looked up in captivation as the flames burned the creatures. They howled in pain, falling over the side or just burning alive. They all watched, eyes wide, as the fire soon faded from his hands, but the flames remained as the creatures continued to burn.

Katherine giggled as the monsters fell over the sides, writhing in pain as they fell through the air.

Harley smiled, framing the moment in his mind. "Oh, wow!"

El Diablo stood for a long moment, watching his work for a second before he turned around to face Deadshot.

The tattooed man panted as he stared at the other man, no anger on his face, he just looked tired.

Deadshot held up his hands, simply saying."I was just trying to get your there."

The hitman offered El Diablo a small smile."Phil Jackson. We good, right?"

The two stared at each other until the sound of heels was heard as Katherine and Harley came up behind El Diablo. The two women wrapped their arms around El Diablo, planting kisses on each cheek as they hugged him tightly.

"Mwah!"Harley kissed him again, whispering."I knew you'd come through! Didn't we, Kat?"

"Uh-huh!"Katherine smiled at the man, head on his shoulder."A team that slays together stays together."

The two women patted his shoulders before they walked off.

Deadshot nodded at El Diablo, muttering."That shit crazy!"

The hitman gave the other man a small smile before he followed Katherine, making sure to stay behind her and watch her back like he promised.

Happy Halloween, guys!
