And Injustice For All 2

Chapter 71: Love & Telepathy

Brainiac's ship

"You will work for me, do you understand, Grodd?"

Earth

"It will be a privilege, Brainiac."

"You will locate the Kryptonian. But do not touch him. He is mine."

"I understand."

You will prepare your planet for my arrival."

"Yes. Once I take back my home."

Grodd makes an announcement.

"Outcasts. Solovar has exiled you all, but he was wrong to do so. He sides with human over his own kind. He takes pity with human. Because he is weak. We will show him strength. We will tear apart the soft king. We will take back our home! We march on Gorilla City!

The sewers of Gorilla City

"Wow, these sewers smell even worse than human sewers," said Man-Bat.

"If you honestly believe," said Boomerang. "You haven't enough time in human sewers, mate."

"How far in?" asked Katana.

"How should I know?" Deadshot asked sarcastically.

"You've never visited before?"

"Why would I visit the sewers?"

"Up ahead," said Man-Bat.

"How do you know?" Boomerang asked. "You're a bat. Don't you have like terrible eyesight?"

"I'm using echolocation. Bouncing high-pitched sound off the environment."

"I didn't hear anything," said Deadshot.

"It's at a frequency inaudible to humans."

"So you're just constantly silently screaming?"

"Yes."

"I can relate," Katana added.

Suddenly, Killer Croc woke up, scaring the shit out of Deadshot.

"Floyd? Why did you tell?"

"We just want to talk."

"It was stupid of you to wake me like this. You should be more afraid."

"Eh. We have crocs four times your size, mate," said Boomerang. Seriously, you're a badass and all but you'd be a light snack for some of the bugger in the Northern territory."

"Why are you here?" asked Croc.

"We were thinking about you and Orca," Deadshot answered.

"DO NOT THINK ABOUT ME AND ORCA!"

"Whoa, in a nice way," said Man-Bat.

"DO NOT THINK OF ME AND ORCA IN A NICE WAY!"

"Look," Deadshot began. "I gave you a hard time about Orca. And all of us, we don't really have a lot of happinesses in our future."

"That's kind of what comes from enslaved and having bombs in our heads," Katana agreed.

"But you," Deadshot continued. "We're the suicide squad and you found a way to make new life."

"We spoke to Solovar. For a alpha gorilla, he's a bit of a softie."

"And?"

"And, bring a king, he can marry you."

(Record stop)

"Why would I want to marry Solovar?"

Deadshot facepalms.

"Just so there's no extra confusion," Boomerang took over. "He means he can marry to each other."

Killer Croc got the idea.

Jungle at night.

"Halt!"

"What is it, General Grodd?"

"Two sentries on the hill ahead."

"You sure?"

"I can feel their minds. They won't set the alarm."

Grodd tossed a spear at one of the sentries.

"Toliphar was old," said Grodd speaking to the young gorilla. "He was set in his ways. He would never have recognized my rule. But you, young mind, remember that I can read your mind. Do you submit to Grodd?"

"Of course. My king."

Outside from the sewers

"Grace."

"What is it, Waylon? Why are we here? Do you want to hunt?"

"No...I... I have something to ask you."

"You will be the father of my child, and you ate a sentient gorilla for me. You can ask me anything."

The squad was watching from inside.

"I..."

He took Orca's hand. "Not here."

They stepped into the nearby river bathed by the moonlight. He proposed to Orca underwater. She smiled, indicating a yes as they rose from the water.

"Oh wow," said Deadshot. "This is like the single most beautiful nature documentary I've ever seen."

"Right? I can practically hear an old British guy narrating the whole thing in calm, dulcet tones." Boomerang agreed.

"I've stopped screaming silently," said Man-Bat.

"We all have, said Katana.
