And Injustice For All 2

Chapter 6: Dinah's Proposal

Bruce Wayne woke up in a hospital bed with bandages around his head and torso.

""Stay still, Bruce. You're okay. But you have a couple of broken ribs. We had to reset your nose and you have a fractured cheek."

"Barbara?"

"What did this to you?"

It was Barbara Gordon, daughter of James Gordon, Commissioner of the Gotham City Police Department. She's also known as Oracle, a computer technician. And one of Injustice's DLC characters, Batgirl. "That's not like you. Was it an enhanced individual?"

"No, he was just... better than me."

"I don't remember you admitting that to anyone."

"Lucius."

An old African American male was holding something. " Welcome back to consciousness, Bruce. Wayne Industries received a message."

That round sphere Lucius was holding showed a hologram of Lex Luthor, who was killed by Regime Superman in the first game and in And Injustice For All.

"Bruce, if you're watching, then you've won the war but I've died. Or were both just sitting in a pool with some champagne and laughing while watching this together. But being one of the smartest people in the world, I know that's probably not the case. The world will need you. There will be a void. You will need resources, but you'll need allies. If I'm dead, I can't be an ally obviously. I thought about creating an robot Lex Luthor with an artificial intelligence, but it just had "horror movie" written all over it. So I'm giving the resources to change the world. I'm the richest individual on the planet and I have far more than anyone realizes. I have... I had slightly more money than the GDP of the European Nation, one of the good ones, like France. I'm leaving it all to you, combined with your own considerable wealth, you can change the world. But do not be so arrogant as to attempt this alone. No one wants a world molded into Batman's vision. That would be terrifying. Seek out good people. I've created a list, but you'll need more. Make the world a better place, Bruce. Make a world where the night no longer needs a Batman."

Bruce sat up.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" asked Lucius.

"I need to get out there. Track down who did this," Bruce replied. "They had considerable resources. Now they have a group of powerful villains at their disposal."

"And they have Harley," said Barbara.

"Before you throw your broken body back into a fight, there something else," said Lucius.

"Luthor wasn't the only dead person who wanted to speak to you."

"What?"

Black Canary makes her appearance. "Hello, Bruce."

"Dinah? It's good to see you."

They hugged each other, but Dinah wasn't alone. He sees Oliver Queen.

"Is that really...?"

"From another universe, yes."

"I'm putting a group together."

"Who?"

"Ted Kord, Lucius Fox..."

"Rich people..."

"Well, yes. We have a world to rebuild. That's going to cost money."

"Oh, look, Batman's the exact same know-it-all control freak in this dimension. You arrogant bastard! You think only rich people can save the world? Let me tell you something..."

"I want you both in the group. You're a billionaire."

"No, I was a billionaire. Then everything went wrong. Everyone I loved died. And now my only asset is a small cabin, and we just blew a Doctor Fate sized hole in it."

"None of that happened in this dimension."

"Huh?"

"He's right."

"Oliver Queen died here, but if you're here then he is not dead and his wealth is yours, well yours and Dinah's, considering you two are married legally."

"But, we're not actually married..."

"Let's fix that. Oliver Queen, will you marry me again, for the first time?"

"Should we do this in front of Batman?"

"I'm kind of committed here."

"Bruce, can you do that thing where people turn around and disappear?"

Batman did just that.

"Seriously, how the hell does he do that?"

"Ollie, I'm still on my knees."

"Sorry."

"Not a lot of cushioning in fishnets."

"Final Lance, my pretty bird. I will marry you again for the first time."

Oliver and Dinah embraced each other Connor arrived with Batgirl.

"What's going on?"

"Your dad and I getting married."

Connor looked surprised.

"Ew.."

Well, so much for that. Suddenly, an alarm went off

"What's that?"

"It's the prison alarm!"

"Talk to us, Turpin."

Batman and the others are in the comm room.

"The prison's lost power."

"It can't lose power. It's not attached to the grid."

"Well, that would have been a fine argument if I wasn't literally sitting in the dark."

"We have several backup generators..."

"It's dark. They're out. This isn't an accident. This is a precision attack. All my guards are scrambling. We're locking everything down. You know, Batman, when you made warden, you promised me a cushy job. I'm supposed to be delegating responsibility with sitting sports and donuts and other lazy cop cliches."

"Turpin, what about Superman's cell?"

"Oh, this ain't good. I can't see in there. Cameras are out. Remote diagnostics indicate the red sun energy is at 35% and falling. We have a real problem."
