"Talking!"

'Thinking!'

"Demon!"

Five Nights of Joker IV

"Knock, knock, knock!" says the Joker as he knocks on the door in front of him.

He waits as the mad man can hear foot steps coming closer and closer to the door. He ready his single action army at the thought of Barbara Gordon answering the door. It would be like all those years ago when he shot her and made her paralyze from the waist down. The look on her face when she was shot; like she couldn't of been shot. It was like no one would dare shot her and do it right in her face.

The door opens up, but what the Joker wasn't expecting was for Batman to be there tackling him to the floor. The Dark Knight easily put his handcuffs of the clown and take him outside where there is severally heavily armed police officers waiting with a few patrol cars and an armor truck waiting for him.

"Why what a grand welcoming!" Joker says with excitement, "You had all this made for little ol' me? Why I like it!"

Several of the officers grab the Joker and throws him in the back of the armor truck. It didn't take long before all the patrol cars, armor truck, and the Batmobile to leave.

"Target is leaving,"

"Copy that."

Deathstroke walk out onto the street while holding a grenade launcher. Taking aim just before where the patrol car was going to be fires and caused the ground to explode. The patrol car drives off the road and into the side of a building. There was another explosion with another patrol car crashing into an on coming car. The patrol car before the armor truck stops with said truck slamming into it. The Batmobile drives around the crashed cars and towards Deathstroke. The assassin takes out a disc and throws it across the ground underneath the Batmobile. The disc explodes with the Batmobile flying towards Deathstroke who just takes a step to the left for it to pass him.

The door to the armor truck fly open with SWAT member pouring out aiming their rifles at the assassin. It didn't do anything as each of the SWAT members fall to the ground as Quiet who is a mile away ejects a shell. Stepping over the sleeping, not dead SWAT members to find the Joker isn't there.

"Fuck it was a trap," Deathstroke simple says

"That's correct Deathstroke," Batman stated as he is standing behind the assassin, "I knew you would try something when we caught the Joker. You aren't going to kill him this time,"

"I only killed one Joker," Deathstroke turns to face Batman but steps in mid step, "No…" Deathstroke drops his grenade launcher and faces the other way, "How long I have waited."

Batman watched as Deathstroke just tands there. He looks to where the one eyed assassin is looking at to see something flying towards them. As it gets closer and closer Batman can finally make out what's flying towards them. Clinching his jaw tight as he came make out Wonder Woman flying towards them.

'This isn't good. What's Wonder Woman doing here?' Batman thought to himself.

This is something that Batman didn't want Wonder Woman here; or anywhere close to Deathstroke. If they fight it could cause so much damage if they get anywhere close to each other. What Batman really didn't want was for Wonder Woman to find out who Deathstroke truly is.

Wonder Woman lands on the ground. She changed her outfit, but not very much and is carrying a sword and a shield along with her lasso, "Batman, I was in the area when I heard about Deathstrok attacking,"

"Wonder Woman, you shouldn't be here!" Batman yelled out

"What are getting on about Batman? Deathstroke has been giving you problems along with the rest of the Justice League," Wonder Woman stated, "You need my help,"

"Wonder Woman," Deathstroke says in awe, "It's good to finally see you,"

Turning to Deathstroke to get a better look at the assassin, "Deathstroke," she looks long and hard at the assassin and there has something off about him, "You aren't the originally Deathstroke, are you?"

"You can tell? Strange it took Batman a few minutes, but you found out right away,"

"Who are you?"

"Why don't you find out?" Deathstroke takes his stance

"I see," Wonder Woman takes out her sword and shield, "You wish to duel!"

Batman was going to stop them, but quickly jumps back as Quiet takes upon herself to stop the Dark Knight from stopping them. Wonder Woman run towards Deathstroke who throws a punch at her. Raising her shield up to block the punch the Amazon can feel the weight behind the punch as she has a great difficulty blocking. Acting quickly the assassin grabs the edge of the shield and pushed it out of the way and kicked Wonder Woman away with himself falling. Taking out his 1911 and open fire at the Amazon who uses her shield to block the bullets.

Rolling to his feet to watch Wonder Woman running low to the ground with her shield up with him shooting at her as the Amazon takes cover behind a car. Diana looks over to see that Deathstroke is reloading his gun to jump over, kicks the gun out of his hand; only for the assassin to take out his Magnum and pulls the trigger. Blocking with her shield Wonder Woman gets in close to throw a punch that connects with his face. Using her shield as a weapon though Deathstroke grabs the shield, throws a punch underneath their arms to be blocked, throws a punch over the shield that connects to Wonder Woman's face. Taking advantage by grabbing the Amazon's shield to toss her just for Wonder Woman to land on her feet, but to lose her shield as the assassin has taken it. The Amazon swings her sword for it only to be blocked and a fist meets her face that caused her to roll back and to look at the assassin with her shield raised up.

Jumping towards the assassin to bring her sword down onto the shield as sparks fly from the friction. It became a battle of strength as they pushed each other back to gain footing. Seeing that if they continue to do this then it'll never end head butts the Amazon followed by a kick the not only forced Wonder Woman away from Deathstroke, but to make the woman drop her sword.

Running back at the assassin who throws the shield at the Amazon with said woman leaning to the side to watch as the shield cuts into a van. Deathstroke takes out a knife and begins trying to cut the woman. Watching and making sure that the blade doesn't touch her and blocking punches; though she tries to get in a few punches that are blocked. A heavy over hand punch came down with a quick hand to flip the knife up in the air to be quickly catch and thrust towards Wonder Woman's chest. She grabs and twists the assassin's hand. Deathstroke abandons his guard to take a swipe at the woman which she just ducks, ducks another swing to give Deathstroke a hay maker. Taking advantage and kicks Deathstroke into a car as his knife left his hand; jumping to land a knee into Deathstroke's chest forcing him to hit the car again. Block another hay maker to deliver a cross punch to Wonder Woman's face. He went to tackle Wonder Woman, but was catch and thrown to the ground. Rolling and jumping up onto his feet and grabs the Amazon's throat.

Diana can feel the strength behind the grip around her throat as it becomes difficult to breath. She looks into the single eye of Deathstroke to see that the eye color is blue. A shade of blue that she hasn't seen in years.

'Naruto?' Diana thought to herself.

Diana is thrown back hitting the car behind her to flip over and lands on the other side of the car. Deathstroke leaped onto the car's hood with a single bound, jumped off with his fist out crashing, and breaking the ground with said fist; Wonder Woman rolled out of the way at the last moment. Twisting around to block a body blow, then another, followed by several others before being hit hard enough to hit the side of a van that has her shield in the back. Deathstroke takes out another knife, spartan kicks Diana into the van with his knife coming down, but was stopped as it was blocked by Diana. Placing his other hand on the butt of the handle and forced his knife into the van and drags it over showing that the knife was made by High-Frequency Blade Technology as the blade cuts through the metal like it was butter.

Wonder Woman grabs and German suplex Deathstroke into the ground and quickly grabs her shield that is sticking out of the van. Blocks a swing, steps back from another swing, blocked a downward stab only for Deathstroke to take it in his other hand, right cross, blocks a kick with the shield, ducks a wide swing, and jams her shield into Deathstroke's left arm. She grabs Deathstroke's arm to reach around with her shield to hit Deathstroke's face, turns around placing her hand on Deathstroke's lower face and throws him over her shoulder with his helmet flying off.

Diana's breathing quickens as she can see Deathstroke's bright blonde hair; blonde hair that she hasn't seen in years since she was a child. Everything slows down as Deathstroke slowly stands to his feet and even slower turning around. That hair, that blue eye, that jaw line, everything that she can remembers from her childhood.

"Naruto…?" Wonder Woman whispers out with Deathstroke hearing it anyway

"Who the hell is Naruto?" asked Deathstroke with him taking out another 1911 only to lean out of the way as a grenade flies by him.

Diana turns around to see that James Gordon leaning on a car wearing SWAT gear and is holding a grenade launcher. The Amazon Princess turns around to see her old childhood friend gone.

oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Naruto leaped rooftop from rooftop as he gets further and further away from the battlefield. He shouldn't of fought Diana. Because of their fight he lost his helmet.

Placing his fingers to his ear, "Doktor! I need to know where they've taken the Joker!"

"Right!" Doktor types away, "It was during the underpass when they changed the Joker out into another armor truck. Raiden is making his way there as we speak,"

"Thank you, Doktor,"

"Deathstroke, they have other Justice League members moving in as they are going to capture you everything they have. You need to hide your face before they get here," Doktor says before cutting his connection to Deathstroke

"Copy that! Quiet! I need a replacement!"

oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

The armor truck drives down a street that has been mostly cleared of vehicles that aren't law enforcement. Raiden steps out and walks onto the street several hundred yards away from the armor truck as it gets closer and closer.

"We have a cyborg out in front of us," one of the SWAT members radioed

"Justice League members are on their way. Don't lose the cargo."

Raiden takes out his sword as electricity sparks out of it. Jack decided to take the name Raiden and help Naruto out with whatever he needed. As a thank you Naruto made Jack a new High-Frequency Blade that is longer with a thicker blade width. Plates side across Raiden's face to form a helmet and charges the oncoming armor truck. With a single swing the armor truck is cut down the middle with the cut halves missing Raiden. The SWAT members gets out of the destroyed armor truck and open fire onto Raiden. Not wanting to kill them the cyborg dodges all the bullets as he gets closer to the SWAT members. Flipping the sword around and striking all the SWAT members, knocking them all out. The Joker who sat back and watched and was also taking photos of the whole thing.

"I have the target," Raiden says over his comms, "I need to get the target out of here quickly!"

Quiet who forced Batman to hide as Deathstroke and Wonder Woman fought it out quickly came back to the Blackbird and flies through the city. She hovers in place as a rope line is dropped out of the bomb bay doors. Raiden knocked out the Joker and tied him to the rope line with it being brought back up, and Raiden leaps up to the Blackbird. It was a good thing because Superman fly towards the Blackbird, but before he could get any close it disappears in a black mist.

"I'm starting to hate that ability." the Man of Steel stated.

oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Naruto was picked up by Quiet with them teleporting several miles away. The Blackbird had an upgrade to change how it works. The outside of the plane wasn't changed, but it was lined with lead to prevent Superman or Power Girl from using their X-ray vision from looking inside. On the inside is completely different as it was refitted for Doktor to have a set up to give Deathstroke and Raiden support with information.

"We'll deliver Joker to our client and get you back to Alaska, Doktor," Naruto said to the doctor

"I must say it was fun to get out into the field every once and awhile," Wilhelm turns to face the blonde, "Why did you fight with Wonder Woman?"

"I didn't expect her to arrive like she did," he pauses to think, "It was a reaction that drove me to attack her,"

"Attack her? Like an instinct?"

"Yeah… It was like I was forced to moved; I couldn't control myself,"

"I think you need time to rest. Go somewhere you can think clearly and see the bigger picture,"

"I think I'll do just that."

-Coney Island-

The Joker woke up tied to a chair with a single light shinning down onto him. He looks around trying to see where he is, but couldn't find anything.

"Hello, Mr. J!" Harley says stepping into the light

"Harley! I am glad to see you! Get me out of here and we'll have so much fun just like old times!"

"Yeah, the thing about that; I won't be getting you out of here," Harley walks over to a table full of medical tools, "I have some business to take care of," The crazy blonde picks up a hacksaw before turning around to slowly walk towards the Joker.

oxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Naruto pours himself a glass of whiskey before sitting down. He's been thinking about what happened with his fight against Wonder Woman. He can't wrap his head around it; something, or someone made him fight the Amazon Princess.

"What happened out there?" Naruto asked himself

"I would like to ask that as well," says Jiraiya who is sitting behind Naruto

"I wonder when you've get here. Why do you smell like blood?"

Jiraiya walks over and sits in front of Naruto, "I was here for about an hour watching your landlady torture the Joker down in the basement. You do know she's crazy, right?"

"I know that she is, I don't care. Why are you here?" the blonde asked the old man

"I saw the news how Deathstroke and Wonder Woman fought, but it was cut short when Deathstroke's mask came off. I have to ask something, Naruto; are you losing it?"

"No…" Naruto sighs in frustration, "It was like… I couldn't control myself,"

"What do you mean, Naruto? I thought you've made up your mind about not wanting revenge?"

"I did, but then I wanted the Amazons to pay for all the men they've killed over the years. To make them pay for what they did so that no one else would lose a father, husband, brother, or son," Naruto looks at his fixed wall, "But then it all changed as if something won't let me let go of all my anger, frustration, all of my hatred,"

"You can't, or won't?"

"Something won't let me. I tried to let go, but then I felt a drive to hurt the Amazons,"

"Naruto, I think you need some training,"

"Training? I thought all my training was finished?" giving Jiraiya a strange look

"You have, but you've never had training that was might for the mind and have resists for emotions,"

"Where?"

"Aokigahara." Jiraiya saws with a smile.

-Watch Tower-

Wonder Woman kicks open the doors that lead into the meeting room with Batman waiting for her. The Dark Knight knew that the Amazon Princess was coming so he waited for her. She saw his face even if he said he wasn't Naruto; deep down Diana knew that was her Naruto, her old friend from all those years ago.

"Batman! I need to know if you knew this!" Diana holds up Deathstroke's mask that he left behind after their battle

Batman can't have Wonder Woman going out of her way and tear up the world looking for an old friend, "I don't know what you are talking about, Diana. This is a new Deathstroke that's been on the watch list for the League as he is good, very good. You know that he took on some of the heavy hitters from the League,"

"I know that because I was on the other side of the planet when that fight when down. I saw the recordings and saw those chains,"

"Chains?" Batman remembers those chains appearing and breaking through Green Lantern's construct, "Do you what those chains are? And what they can do?"

"There was only one other person who can use those chains, but she's been dead for years,"

"Do you know who she was?"

"Yes, her name was Kushina Uzumaki. She could of became Wonder Woman, but didn't. She was killed because…" Diana stops herself as she didn't want to remember how it happened, "She was killed and leave it at that. I thought her daughter died well, til today,"

"Then how did Deathstroke have those chains?" Batman asked

"I don't know. Kushina was the only person on Themyscira who could use those chains,"

"What about her daughter? Is it possible what you thought to be a daughter was in fact a son?" Batman says while trying to get Wonder Woman to think that her old friend was in fact a boy

"What!?" Diana clearly didn't like that thought, "Naruto was a girl! She and I use to play together when we were younger and did just about everything together!"

"You don't know that for sure, Diana. For all you know your friend could have been a boy,"

"Bruce!" shouted Diana, "If you keep saying that about my dead friend; I don't know what I'll do to you!"

"Very well." is all Batman could say as he watches Wonder Woman storm away.

He exhales in frustration. The pieces are coming together and the picture is painted even clearer. Naruto was born on Themyscira as a boy, instead of being a girl. His mother mostly like went into hiding to protect her son, but she couldn't stay hidden as Diana found them and became childhood friends; then the worst happened and they were most likely attacked by the Amazons with Kushina dying to do what every parents would do, protecting her son. From there Slade Wilson probably found Naruto with his dead mother and took him in to train for vengeance.

'We're just alike. While I chose a path to make sure that no one knows that pain of watching their parents dying in front of them. And yet, Naruto went down the path for vengeance to make them pay for killing his mother. I wonder if I could of done the same thing if I walked down that path?' Batman thought to himself.

The Dark Knight run through what Naruto must of went through to become what he did. Fighting in Liberia becoming one of the most feared child soldiers, trained by the League of Assassins, fighting some of the most dangerous people who ever walked the planet. It amazes him that someone could do that at such a young age and walk out on top.

-Gotham-

It is a bright and sunny day in Gotham with everyone going about and doing their business. A cloud of smoke covers several blocks. The CDC quickly closed the surrounding blocks down and scan the air. Since there has been so many death with poisons and toxic smoke because the Joker they didn't want to take a chance.

"Sir, there's nothing in the air," said one of the CDC workers

"Why in the world would gas be released in the middle of the city without it effecting people?"

The smoke slowly clears and walks out of it is the Justice Buster. A battle suit that Batman made to use against the Justice League just in case if they ever go rogue.

"Of all time this could happen!" Batman yelled out.

-Flashback-

Bruce looks over some paperwork for the upcoming quarter. He pauses as he turns his chair to look out over the city. It's been a few weeks since the Jokers broke out and started to wrack the city. This is something that Gotham has never faced before. He fears that Gotham might meets it end with everything that has happened. And it all started when the new Deathstroke appeared. It would seem that the world is changing even if it didn't want too. Deathstroke changed so much stuff that wouldn't normally changed. Ra's dying for good is a starter. Bruce wonders if Deathstroke is somehow able to do things that normally couldn't, or shouldn't happen.

'Maybe I should talk to Doctor Fate about this. Deathstroke has proven that he's becoming a threat to the Justice League and he knows how to be a threat.' thought Bruce.

But before Bruce could think of anything else Wonder Woman flies through the window and grabs the billionaire.

"Wonder Woman?!" Bruce yelled out in surprised, "What are you doing?!"

Wonder Woman slams Bruce into the floor and flies out with Bruce in hand, "Diana!"

"Quiet, Bruce. I'm not going to listen to you anyway."

Wonder Woman flies to the park and slams Bruce into the ground. Groaning in pain as he turns over onto his front. The Amazon Princess grabs Bruce once more, but he quickly takes out two small devices and place them on the side of Wonder Woman's head. The Amazon Princess ripped off the devices.

"Alfred! Send the suit!" Bruce shouted out before Wonder Woman throws the billionaire across the park and slowly walk towards him

"Are you sure Master Bruce?" Alfred asked over the comms

"Just release the gas!" demands Bruce

"It's time Bruce. The Justice League is here to do something we're wanted to do for a long time," raising her sword up to reflect the sun on the shinning blade, "Kill you,"

"Activate Fenrir!"

-Flashback End-

The Justice Buster walk towards Wonder Woman. She flies forward and swings her sword trying to cut through the thick metal.

"She means to kill you, Bruce. There's no conflict in her about it. No pupil dilation. No hesitation in her movements. Whatever is doing this to her, she's a bit slower then normal, but the fact remains," scanning Wonder Woman's body and tracking all her movements, "She's not pulling her punches. So you can either," Alfred told Bruce as he punches Wonder Woman in the face with her flying back and crashes into the wall

Grinning before blowing her hair out of her face, "Diana, you have to fight through whatever this is! Please, tell me who did this to you?"

"Maybe no one did this to me, Bruce. Did you ever think of that? Maybe I just hate you. Maybe we all do, and this is simple the end," standing up and fly towards the Justice Buster, "And you can hide in that suit. But chain mail, kevlar; there isn't an armor in existence I haven't cut through," cuts off Batman's left arm, "To bring an enemy the truth," stabbing Bruce in the chest

"Diana… Wh- Why…?" groans out

"Shhh. Just let it go dark, Bruce. Let it go dark." Wonder Woman whispers out.

What Wonder Woman doesn't know is that Bruce had placed a silver lasso on her that has been working for the last few minutes. Wonder Woman's most trusted tool is the Lasso of Truth that Hephaestus made to always find the truth so that it can come into the light. Seeing the darkness the Lasso of Truth the God of the Forge made the Bind of Veils in a moment of doubt, not long after he forged the lasso. He used an inverted version of the same weave; so instead of telling the truth, it tells lies.

"Base, are you picking up any others?" Batman asked Alfred

"Negatie Sir, nothing y…" a crimson flash passed the Justice Buster ripping off a plate of armor, "Yyyyyeeeeee…" zooming around, "Eeeeee…" the bat symbol was ripped off the chest piece, "Eeeeeetttttttttt."

Seeing how fast the Flash can go with speeds that even Superman can't use. He spent more money into the Justice Buster then about sixty percent of the world's nations put into their respective militaries. And a good deal of that money went towards a protocol for one man; making sure the srvers were fast enough for him. Faster than any human reaction. Fast enough to map his movements, assuming he wasn't an optimal speed and then fire the frictionless coating exactly where it needs to be before he can react. The strike is so fast the whole thing is over before I even know it.

A tiny laser fires and coats the ground in a speed not even the Flash can see with his slipping and crashing into a building.

"Bruce, enough tricks and gadgets. Now turn and face me like you have some damn honor and we'll…" didn't get to finish as a foam covers Aquaman.

Aquaman joined the League about two years ago after Ocean Master attacked the surface world by using tsunamis. Trying to show that not all Atlanteans don't have a hatred for the surface world he joined the Justice League, but also the United Nations to show further trust.

"That's the thing, Arthur. There's no honor in a street fight. The foam is made from powdered magnesium carbonate. It's the most absorbent material on Earth. A single gram has nearly eight hundred meters of surface area. Bottom line, the more you struggle, the more moisture it rips from your body. Now, look at me. Tell me who did this,"

Struggling to get free from the foam, "I look at you and see a dead man, that's all,"

"Who did this, Arthus?"

"Batman!" Alfred said over the comms

"What is it?" Batman answered back

"We're picking up movement. Something big coming at you," Alfred's daughter chimed in

"Sir, you should…"

"I'm staying here. It's the only safe place to fight them." Batman firmly stated.

Batman gets ready for what is coming. If it's Cyborg electromagnetic nerve tree, Green Lantern gets a citrine neurolizer, but please don't let it be him. He still should be off world. A boom comes and hits the Justice Buster through several buildings with the suit crashing into an old theater. Floating over the down Justice Buster is known other than Superman.

"Hello, Bruce. Sorry about you little Justice Buster suit,"

"Clark… please… See through this and talk to me. Who did this to you?"

"Who? Well, Bruce, it's actually sort of… funny."

If Batman stood around Wonder Woman would noticed a smile, Flash smirking, Aquaman grinning.

"No… No, not him!" growled out Batman's

"Oh, yes, Bruce; and no one's going to save you this time! Ha ha haha haha ha!"" laughs out a crazed Superman.

Batman has faced many foes, gods, monsters, mad men, and demons. He spent years gathering information on the members of the Justice League to take them down and make sure that they don't take a life. Superman is one of the few members that has so many plans to take down the Man of Steel. Shinning a red sun light that has the radiation even.

Batman punches Superman in the face where the red light is the strongest, "You like the knuckles, Clark? Each pod contains microscopic red suns. Collected from the dead solar systems with the aid of Dr. Ray Palmer," punches Superman once more, "I call them my Red Giants," punches Superman into the ground, "Now you're going to shake this thing,"

"Heh… Red Giants,"

"Even if I have to beat if the hell out of you!"

Superman flies out of the ground and crashes into a building. The Justice Buster climbs out of the hole. Superman stands out of the building laughing with the Joker grin as blood runs down his chin.

"Ssssoo, Bruce. Who winssss in a fight? Batman," firing hits heat vision at the Dark Knight, "Or Superman? Hahaha!"

A plasma shield opens up in front of the Justice Buster, "Nice try, but this suit is equipped with plasma shields to deflect heat vision. Thrust and thermal to counteract your freeze breath; and if you come near me, the knuckles will do the trick. So go on, Clark. Take your best shot,"

"B… B… Bangs."

Turning his heat vision to cut through the buildings and starting a fire. Flying up into the air to avoid the falling building to rip right through it to fire hit heat vision that melts the right arm of the Justice Buster. Batman forgot that Superman never crossed the line and would never go pass his limit for it would show the world that he can do anything and the world couldn't do a damn thing about it.

"Heehee, upp… uppp… and awaaaayyyyy!" Superman grabs the Justice Buster and flies up high into the skies while ripping off pieces of the suit, "Where arrrre you, Brucuuce?"

"Clark! Listen to me!" another piece was ripped off, "Clark! Don't do this… dont-" having a had time breathing from the atmosheric pressure created by Superman

"Heehee! Therrre you arrree!" the Man of Steel rips off the finally piece of the suit

"Clark, please! This isn't you! It's him! And he-"

"Heehee! Hee sayssss beg!" laughs out Superman.

Batman sips in Superman's eye causing him to lose his powers. What the Dark knight sipped out was a buladiene-based synthetic rubber, a polymer laced with radioactive Kyrptonian dust. Alfred calls it Kryptonite gum. He kept a pellet in the suit's helmet. One of the greatest questions asked who would win in a fight between Batman and Superman. Same question, same answer; neither of them.

-Batcave-

Hours later all the members of the Justice Leagues that attacked Batman were moved up to A.R.G.U.S. headquarters where some of the best people are looking after them. Bruce stares at the monitor that shows that each member was effected differently so that they could have been used. There were even some members affected that didn't even attack Batman as they were brought down by other members that weren't affected.

"The toxin in the Justice League is just a more vicious version of the original. With pathogens individuated to each member. For Vic, there's a rubberized microbe that makes killing the virus with a charge difficult. Barry, there're magnetized filaments," Batman stated

"He neutralized them broadly and specifically," Alfred told Bruce

"He's been planning this," spoke Julia.

Julia Pennyworth is Alfred's daughter is an agent of the Special Reconnaissance Regiment. Batman found her in Hong Kong and took her back to Wayne Manor for medical treatment after she was stabbed with a samurai sword through the chest by a Chinese gang boss she was hunting. At first when she was reunited with her long absent father it wasn't pleasant. She didn't like that her father who served in the British Royal Family was wasting his life away by tending to a fop like Bruce Wayne. Julia discovered the Batcave and took her father's role to coordinate when she saw Alfred's health started to decline.

"But they're faring all right?" Alfred asked

"Thy're faring. They're at A.R.G.U.S. where they're being treated with a quinolone I develped. A broad-based antitoxin. They're responding, but it'll take time; for days, maybe five," Bruce explained

"Five days? Nearly a week. I week without Superman, Wonder Woman, or some of the heavy hitters of the Justice League?"

"I know, Alfred. He's planning something big. Which is why I have to catch him, and why you need to get somwheree save. Both of you," Bruce told both Alfred and Julia

"Somewhere… Master Bruce, I hope you're joking,"

"Yo're not well, Alfred. And you know when it comes to him-"

Alfred cuts off Bruce, "What he did to me last time-"

This time Bruce cut off Alfred, "I know you're not at full strength right now. You need to-"

Again Alfred cuts off Bruce, "No, that monster… when he attacks you, he attacks us all, this family! My family! We haven't been the same since the last time. None of us has. And if you think I'm going to to sit by an-" Alfred started to cough

"Dad, take it easy," she walks her father over to a chair to sit down

Kneeling down in front of his old friend, "You want to stay Alfred? I'm not going to fight you, but at least rest,"

"I'll be fine, Sir. Now if you'll pardon my language; go get that bastard!" Alfred told Bruce

Bruce and Julia walk over to the Batcomputer to look over some images, "All right, then how did he get to your friends?" Julia asked the Dark Knight

"I'm you? I'm on the next plane to London. Like you said, this isn't your fight,"

"Hey, I told you I'd help you until my Father was better, and I meant it. Hell, you don't even know how to use my windows, yet. Here, let me," she tries to take over from what Bruce was doing, but he stops her

"Julia, this man, Joker-"

"Bruce. I work for the SRR. We know who he is. I know what he's done to you. And my Father. And I'm staring to to see him broken. Now, how?"

"The League isn't together many places. It's policy, the Watchtower is one of the few locations, the Hall of Justice is another,"

"Any charities they do? We were after a guy last year who put uranium in schools his targets were visiting en masse for charity,"

"The Gotham Children's Hospital last month,"

"So where is he? Where do you think he'll hit you from next?"

"In his own twisted way, he sees himself as serving Batman. He thinks he makes Batman stronger by challenging him with his greatest nightmares. He sees himself as Batman's friend; he used to, at least. But after the last time we fought, if I can glean any meaning in this fight attack, it's friend turned enemy." explained Bruce.

This has changed things. It all started when Tom killed the original Joker, followed by the five unlucky people turning into the Joker and was thrown in jail so that they wouldn't bring harm to the world. People at S.T.A.R. Labs to help them and try to have them cured. It wasn't til a woman walked in and set them free. With the five Jokers running around bringing chaos and harming innocent people. Each time a Joker appeared it brought more death and pain. With each Joker they pushed to harm people in new and different ways, but each Joker was killed because those that fought him saw it fit to end the mad man. It shows that the world doesn't want the Joker around anymore.

It's only been a few years and the city is in chaos from the new Joker Toxin. Unlike the other Joker Toxins, this one acts like a virus as it spreads from person to person. The CDC are working overtime to finding a cure or trying to keep hot zones from spreading any further.

Bruce wakes up with a start, "Bruce!" Julia said out in surprised

"Sir! You've come out of it. Are you-"

"I'm," Bruce unhooks himself from the chair that he is strapped down to, "I'm fine. The toxin; it was some kind of twilight anesthetic. I was aware, awake, but my eyes couldn't focus. My hearing was dull; it was like being underwater. He did it? Released a virus?" asked Bruce

"We barely made it out of the city and got you to Arkham, Master Bruce. By the time we had, the city center was madness," Alfred explained to the Dark Knight

"It was bloody unbelievable. The military and the CDC, the police, they're tring to keep it to these red areas, hold it at yellow," Julia waved her hand to the monitor show blocks that are red and yellow, "But it's… I've never seen anything like it,"

"I need to see." Bruce stated.

Batman went to Arkham as it has been closed down for a few months. There was an earthquake that caused the facility to fall apart in on itself. The inmates were moved to different locations and watched heavily. As Batman walked through the destroyed building trying to see if the Joker left anything that could lead to any type of clue. Anything that could help. While he was there he met with Eric Border someone who worked at Arkham Asylum. During their talk Eric locked up Batman and revealed that he was the Joker, hiding in plain sight. By using a play on words as Eric comes from the El which is proto-norse meaning eternal and reiks which is Gothic, meaning prince. And border is a homophone for bourder which is an obsolete word for jester.

"The CDC too blood samples. Before everything completely collapsed. They're there," Julia told Bruce what the CDC was doing

"Airborne?" wanting to know how the virus is spread from person to person

"Exactly. Micro drops on pathogen coated in resistant mucus disseminated into the air every time an infected person coughs or spits or,"

"Laughs of course," Bruce guessed, "A laugh is just a series of diaphragmatic spasms; coughs in rapid fire. A viruse that spreads like laughter. Damn,"

"And they just… keep laughing, Bruce,"

"You followed my protocol?" Bruce wanting to know if Julia made sure that a cure can be made

"Of course, Sir. We ran simulations with antitoxin, but…" Alfred hesitates

"But what, Alfred?"

"Well, it seemed to be working, but then… but then the virus resisted. There's something new in this strain he's created, Sir. Something resilient in a way… well, in a way that seems almost unnatural. It's virulent, fast acting, and seemingly unkillable. I'm afraid it's his masterpiece, Sir,"

"Nothing's unkillable. Not him, not it. I've created hearly a hundred cures for the Joker Toxins over the years. Antitoxins, antibios, steroids; how many have you tested so far?" Bruce asked wanting to know just how different this Joker Toxin is from the others

"Bruce…" Alfred started to say

"We tested all of them," Julia finished what her father was going to say, "Fact is, none worked. Not even close like Dad said, there's something in the bond; some secret element we simply can't overpower. We're at a loss,"

"Pull up the first case,"

Julia walks over to the computer and brings up the file, "Here. Gotham Presbyterian, but why-"

"Whoever the first patient was, they walked into the hospital before the virus manifested fully. They were a carrier. With some kind of initial resistance. Pres has an infectious disease ward with full lockdown facilities. Whoever patient zero is, they're likely still there. If I can get a sample from that person, I should be able to figure out an antibody,"

"I'm coming with you," Julia told Bruce

"No, you help from here," the billionaire told Penny-Two

"With everything that's-"

"That's the job, Julia." Bruce once again told Julia.

-Coney Island-

While Gotham is going mad because of the Joker; there is another that is preparing. Fixing her hair into pigtails with one of the pigtail's colored pink and the other colored blue. Making sure that her lipstick is on correctly, fixing her belt, and picks up a black and gold .44 Magnum with the words love and hate on the cylinder's sides. Harley walks over to a baseball bat that has the same color scheme as her hair and then picks up her sledge hammer.

"It's time for me to end this once and for all." Harley told herself.

This is the last Joker to still be alive. The last mad man who could cause so much damage. Harley made up her mind that she should be the one that gets to kill the Joker; even if Batman stands in her way. After all, it's only right that she gets to be the one that ends it all.

-Gotham-

The city streets are in full riot. People are running around fighting each other. Fires spread from building to building, the military opening fire onto the civilians with said civilians overrunning the military and taking their weapons. So much death and destruction all because a man just wants to watch the world burn.

-Batcave-

While Batman is away Deathstroke slowly rises out of the water that comes from one of the many underwater tunnels. He'd knew the location of the Batcave for a few weeks, but never acted upon it. When Deathstroke fought and defeated Batman in Fairbanks, Alaska he planted a tracking device on the Cape Crusader to follow him and maybe learn more who Batman really is. After seeing the Justice Buster in action Naruto knew that Batman has knowledge on how to defeat all of the members of the Justice League. With the knowledge to fight any member of the Justice League.

'Knowing how to defeat the Justice League will come in handy down the road." Deathstroke told himself.

Deathstroke barely has any equipment on him as the defensive for the Batcave is one of if not the best guarded place on the planet. The most difficult part was swimming for ten miles without any equipment. Naruto wonders if even Batman will be able to break in his own cave.

He make sure that no one was around and sneak over to the computer. Taking out a flashdrive from his empty eye scotch to start hacking into the computer. It will take sometime before the information to be found and downloaded. So all he has to do is sit back and wait; walking into the shadows to disappear.

-Gotham-

Chaos in of itself was what Gotham is right now. Harley made her way through the city making sure that she isn't seen. She can say that this new Joker Toxin that the Joker made made is something else. She has some resists to it because all Joker Toxin has the same base that all Joker Toxin has, though this stuff is taking its toll.

"Where did he made this stuff? This is nothing like the old Joker Toxin," she stands behind a dumpster watching a parade go by, "Well, I wasn't expecting that."

During his time running around Gotham Joker raided a warehouse full of parade floats, "Welcome all!" Joker shouted out for everyone to watch, "I hope you all are having a great time! Because I know I am!"

"Mr. J! This is so much fun! Where is Batman?" Lottie asked the Joker while wearing a gas mask

"Why my dear, it is simple; kill the Bat!" laughing at the thought of his long time frenemy, "It is time for our dance to finally end."

Lottie watches the Joker laughs at the thought of ending their eternal battle. Harley seeing enough takes out her sledge hammer and run towards them. She leaped up and swings her sledge hammer downward destroying the floor of the parade float.

"Harley?" the mad man questioned, "What are you doing?!"

"What do it look like?" Harley brings up her sledge hammer, "I'm here to stop you and put you back into the ground where you belong,"

"Lady, you have to get by me first," Lottie steps in front of the Joker

"Who the hell are you suppose to be?" the blonde asks

"Why I'm Lottie, the Joker's new Harley Quinn. I'm your replacement,"

"Honey, you don't know what you're getting yourself into. Do you not see what that mad man is doing? Don't you see what he's doing to the city?" Harley asked the woman

"OF course I see what he's doing! I wouldn't be here if I didn't know what's going on! I want to follow the Joker,"

"Well, it looks like I have to do this the hard way." Harley swings her sledge hammer at Lottie.

Lottie was just a follower, not a fighter. Harley spent years fighting some of the best people in the world and while she may of not come out on top most of the time; she still walked away from those fights. Fighting Batman does teach you how to take a punch and how to land without getting hurt too much. So when Harley hit Lottie with her sledge hammer she didn't know how to take a hit and went down.

"Well, that was a let down," Joker pulls out a chainsaw with the engine roaring, "I'll just have to cut you to pieces!"

The Joker swings his chainsaw around trying to cut his old partner up. Shortly after he'd gotton out from his prison the mad man looked up where Harley went to. It was easy to find her since he knew how Harley thought and knew what to look for. She made a new life without him and lived a normal and boring life without any chaos. Harley had the gall to turn her back on him and not break him out of prison.

"I'll chop you up into tiny pieces, my Harley!" cutting through the parade float

"I don't think so!" Harley jumps back from the Joker's attack.

-Batcave-

Deathstroke takes out the flashdrive as it finally finished downloading all the data on the Justice League and how to beat them. It took long then the assassin wanted, but what done is done.

'Now all I have to do is leave and no one-' Naruto's thought was stopped when he heard the sound of a gun cocking

"I wouldn't move if I were you," commanded Alfred as he holds a shotgun to Deathstroke's head

"Alfred Pennyworth, butler of Bruce Wayne who happened to be Batman. Nice shotgun you've got there,"

"What are you doing here?"

"I just wanted information on the Justice League for all is coming together. All is coming to circle,"

"Talking in riddles like what Batman said,"

"I do many things that don't make sense. If I let people know what I'd want, then people will know what I'm thinking. I have to be ahead of my enemy by ten steps,"

"To defeat your enemy without losing anything in turn,"

"You have that right, Mr. Pennyworth. For what I have been planning has taken years and I'm so close to finally be done,"

"Why don't you tell me, Deathstroke? The Justice League isn't your target; who is your real target? From one soldier to another?"

"A Soldier's Code?" Deathstroke looks at Alfred, "Why should tell you?"

"Out of all your showcasing the only time you fought with the intent to kill was during your fight with Wonder Woman. Is Wonder Woman your really target?"

"You are Batman's butler, Mr. Pennyworth. I'm sure you know what Batman knows and has a good guess,"

"Not really if I has to say so myself. If I was a wanderer from the east what would I say from a stranger of the west," Alfred challenges Deathstroke

"I would say welcome traveler from the east as I would of the west. You know the greetings; what is your question?" Deathstroke answered the challenge that only soldiers would know

"You are an Amazon, correct?"

"Yes, I am a male Amazon,"

"I thought all Amazons are women? How can you be an Amazon if you are a man?"

"Because the Amazons would raid passing ships, take their cargo, rape the men, and then kill said men. Nine moths later the Amazons give birth to the next generation of Amazons,"

"That… is something I didn't expect. To think the Amazons would so something like; I guess revenge comes to full circle,"

"Like how Hercules and his army raided Themyscira; raping all of the Amazons and in turn they rape men. All the current Amazons are children of rape,"

"You never said what happen to the boys that are born; what happen to them?"

"My Mother saw them throw the new born baby boys into the seas. Mom couldn't do that so she ran and had me a month later. It wasn't until it was years later that the Amazons somehow found out about us, and take for mine and Mom's heads. I watched her die before my very eyes,"

"So you want revenge for what they did to your mother?" Alfred can clearly see how similar Batman and Deathstroke are as they lost their parents at a young age

"I do want revenge, but not in the way you are thinking. Tell me, how do you destroy a society?"

"How to destroy a society?" Alfred gives Deathstroke a strange look

Taking off his mask as Alfred most likely knows who he really is, "By making it so that the Amazons can't have children ever again,"

"And how do you plan to do that?"

Naruto walks over and stares into the darkness, "I am the owner and CEO of Whirlpool Shipping, one of the biggest shipping companies in the world. I plan to release a new ship that will change how shipping is done across the world. Think of it; fishermen never being lost at sea, cargo never being raided by pirates, or storms taking ships and all the crews down to the bottom of the sea,"

"And what will you do once you release those new ships? After the Amazons won't be able to raid ships to take their cargo and rape men? What then?"

"Then? I live my life," Naruto turned his head to look at Alfred, "The Amazons will die out because they won't be able to have children without going into Man's World,"

"What if the Amazons decide to attack the mainland and take what they want?" Alfred can see what the Amazons can do.

The Amazons could take the world and won't be stopped. The Amazons are some of the best warriors in the world and they are trained by the best.

"Then I will kill them all to save the world from their rage. I have to take my leave now, Mr Pennyworth. A stranger of the west says farewell to the wanderer of the east what would I say?"

"I would say look for the tomorrow from one to another as the wanderer heads back to the east." Alfred watches Deathstroke dive into the water.

-Gotham-

Ripping and tearing through streetlights, mailboxes, and bits of cars as Joker run down the street laughing like the mad man that he is. Turning around and swinging his chainsaw at Harley who brings up her sledge hammer up to block, but it was cut in half as the teeth goes straight through the wooden handle. Acting quickly to take out her baseball bat that met the side of the Joker's face. Growling at Harley as she won't let him get to where the mad man needs to get at.

Lottie who has chanced the two as they run down the street fighting each other. Seeing that the Joker got hit by a baseball bat jumped to get revenge for hurting the Clown Prince. The Joker saw Lottie takes out a knife and gets in between them; smiling as a nasty thought came to mind. Lottie takes a few stabs at Harley til a pain unlike any other goes through Lottie's back that comes out of her chest. The chainsaw cuts into Lottie's back that goes through her body and out of her chest with some of the chainsaw teeth making some cuts on Harley. Joker runs off laughing at the thought of killing those two at once.

Harley lays Lottie down as she chokes on her own blood. It reminds Harley of all the times that the Joker would of done the same thing to her when she still worked for him. Throwing her out of a window, throwing her off a building, throwing her off a bridge, shooting her, hitting her, or anything that would cause Harley harm to force any hero to save her. As long as there was a way to take advantage the Joker would do anything to win; even if he were to lose.

Harley takes out her gun and aims it at Lottie's head, "This wouldn't of happened to you if you didn't followed the Joker. No one is to blame, but yourself." Harley didn't even let Lottie to say anything because a bullet found a new home in her head.

Harley followed a trail of blood to the park that leads to a manhole. She looks down into the darkness with her jumping down to finish this. She lands while kneeling to slowly stand to her feet. It was dark, but there are some candles that light the way. The crazy blonde follows the candles to come upon a glowing green pool of liquid.

"What is this place?" Harley asked out loud as her voice echoes across the cave

"This place!" Joker jumps out on a ledge overlooking the glowing green pool of liquid, "This is a Lazarus Pits in its purest form!"

"So this is what your new virus is made out of," Batman says while stepping out of the shadows, "You've found this place and made a virus that could change and not have a cure,"

"Batman? What are you doing here? Did you follow me? You'd followed me, didn't you!" Harley accuses the Dark Knight, "That's so stalkerish!"

Ignoring Harley, "What are you planning on doing Joker?"

Grinning at his long time friend, "Why to end everything of course! Ha haha hahaha!"

"This ends now!"

"No!" yelled out Harley, "This is my fight, Bats!" she walks in front of Batman glaring at the Joker, "This has been coming for a long time,"

"Are you sure?" he can see that Harley wanted to fight the Joker no matter what

"Don't you have a cure to make?" not waiting for Batman to answer as she jump towards the Joker with her baseball bat coming down onto his head.

Batman runs over and quickly takes a sample of the Lazarus Pits, "Do you have it, Penny-Two?" said over the comms

"Yes, it's a perfect match. With this a cure can be made. Batman, you have to move quickly for I don't know how long the city can last!"

"I'm on my way." Batman looks over to see that Harley isn't giving the Joker any ground during their fight.

Batman leaves for he has to save the city and believe that Harley will do the right thing. Swinging and swiping at his old partner with a pair of knives. The mad man wants to end Harley once and for all. Blocking a few stab thrusts with her bat Harley uses the handle to hit the Joker in the face; taking a step back only for a knife to find itself in her side. Grinning at the sight of Harley in pain gives Joker some sick pleasure. Shoving the end of her bat into the Joker's gut which caused him to bend over and lose his breathing, bring up the bat to bring it down onto the mad man's head.

Harley walks away from the Joker as he groans on the ground. Grinning the Joker jumps up driving his knives into both of Harley's shoulders. Joker then kicked Harley in the side forcing her down. The crazy blonde kicks the Joker's feet causing him to fall over and she quickly swung her heel up and then down onto the Joker's face breaking his nose. Harley stands to her feet and grabs her bat.

"Batter up!" Harley brings her bat down onto Joker's back, "Strike one!" cracking her bat onto Joker's left kneecap, "Strike two!" cracking at Joker's elbow, "Strike three!" cracking at Joker's ribs, "Home run!" cracking at the Joker's head.

Harley drops her bat and takes out her gun, has the cylinder to look at the five remaining bullets, side the cylinder back, and walks back over to the Joker who is on his hands and knees.

"So this is how it end?" looking up at Harley Quinn the one that he made, "Poetic!"

"No, it's not. With your death the world won't have to live in fear anymore." Harley fired her gun into the Joker all five times, but hasn't killed him, "I'll give you something that you don't won't, can't have. You won't a grand death, you'll have a quiet death. A death that has no meaning."

Harley didn't give the Joker time to say anything as he found her fingers wrapping around his throat. The pressure slowly building, losing air, slowly everything is becoming dark. Since Harley shot him there isn't anything that the Joker can do to stop her. It was silent. There was no grand explosion. There was no grand massacre. There was nothing. Harley knew this as the Joker feared one thing in the whole world, and that was people forgetting him as if he was dust in the wind.

-Aokigahara-

Naruto stands before the treeline. Jiraiya told him that Aokigahara will help him in found himself. This please will force Naruto to face his demons and ghosts from his past. But there is a flip side; if he can't then Aokigahara will take him and the world will forget that Naruto Uzumaki has ever existed.

"I will face my darkness. That's a promise of a lifetime!"

-Author's Note-

This ends the Five Nights of Joker Arc and the next arc is the one that everyone has been waiting for. That's right! Naruto will have to face his past as he will not only face against the Wonder Woman, the Amazons, but also the Gods of Olympus. I would like to see this story be made a reading story with the Justice League reading this. PM me if you want to do it. And I finally thing! Fuck you flamers! Fuck you all! I won't be naming anyone *cough* Polaruspax *cough* you are an asshole.
