Lex Luthor was staring out a window and at the beautiful outdoor scenery surrounding the school. He was currently inside the Injustice Hall; a large luxurious room that was used by the schools villains. It was also where the Injustice Club had their meetings, a club that he was unsurprisingly the president of. At the moment though, he was the only one in the Injustice Hall, the other students had already left since classes were over a few hours ago and there was no meeting today.
"Mr. Luthor?"
Calmly, Lex turned his head to see his personal assistant and occasional bodyguard standing at the doorway. By the looks of it she had taken quite a beating; her left eye was bruised and she limped while she walked but it was barely noticeable.
"Mercy." he greeted her then asked "Did everything go as planned?"
"Yes sir." she answered with a straight face, no trace of pain or emotion was visible in her expression.
"How are you feeling?" he asked as a formality.
"Fine."
"And the men?"
"They`ve got broken bones, missing teeth, but they`re alive."
"As expected."
Just as he was about to turn away he spotted a hint of emotion on her face.
"Is something wrong?" he asked while raising an eyebrow.
"Actually sir..." Mercy regained her straight face but continued "I don`t understand why you did all this. Why`d you hire Catwoman to steal your Kryptonite only to buy it back? And why would you have me kidnap her only to lure in the bat? And why even lure in the bat, you didn`t even want us to try and kill him."
Luthor replied with a gentle smile: "You don`t see the bigger picture Mercy. In the end everything will work out the way I planned, that`s all."
"Understood sir."
On that note she opened the door and left but only a second later her scream echoed through the halls. The door opened again and a red and black clad jester cart-wheeled in. She stopped at the center of the room, holding a head stand for a few seconds before flipping onto her feet and striking a pose. It didn`t take a genius to know she was very dramatic.
"Ladies and gentlemen!" Harley Quinn talked like she was addressing a large crowd, but Luthor was the only one in the room "Give it up for the master of mayhem! The clown prince of crime! And my pudding! The Joker!"
Suddenly the Joker walked into the room, wearing his usual purple and green garments.
"Yoo hoo!" the clown instantly got in front of Luthor, grinning wildly "Nice to see you again Lexy, hair looks great by the way. Now tell me... have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?"
"What?!" Luthor blinked at him.
"Oh it was something I used to say a long time ago, I liked the way it sounded dramatic." The Joker explained then continued "Anyways, you won`t believe the day I had, but let me tell you it was a hoot. Can you believe it? Yeah me neither."
This time Lex raised an eyebrow and asked in all seriousness: "What do you want clown?"
"Direct, just like a certain pointy-eared, tight-wearing ache in my side. Speaking of which, a little penguin told me all about your get together with the bat. So I was taking a bubble bath and listening to monochromatic opera, that last parts a joke by the way, I don`t even know what monochromatic means. But anyhow the point I`m trying to get through your desolate barren skull, you know because your bald..."
The Joker just stared at him for a moment, probably expecting the usually patient man to respond with laughter, but instead Luthor took this moment to take a step back from The Joker and replied: "Listen you pale freak. Get. To. The. Point."
"Mr. J?" Harley glanced at him with concern "Should I-"
"Nah." The Joker cut her off "Now then Lexy, I know you have a plan, I`m good at knowing things. I also know this plan involves my good friend the batman, so time to tell Uncle Joker all about it."
"And why would I do that?"
"Well Harley there hates secrets and trust me; you don`t wanna get her mad. But mostly because I might be willing to help you, well for twenty-three dollars and fifty cent that is."
"You?" Luthor scoffed "You can`t even kill the Batman, and he`s just an ordinary man."
Suddenly The Jokers eyes went wild and he grabbed Luthor by the throat, even though he was still grinning you could somehow tell he was angry.
"There is nothing ordinary about that man....baldy."
Luthor responded by pushing him off and The Joker easily released his grip and said: "Take some time to think about it Lexy." then he turned to Harley and added "Come on Harley, let`s go make some death traps and find out what the hell monochromatic means."
"A-okay Mr. J." she replied gleefully and the two exited the building and only a minute after Mercy limped back in.
"Mr. Luthor?" she groaned "Something knocked me out, are you alright?"
"Everything's peachy."

To all my adoring fans and other assorted readers x3 I know this chapter was super short but it was kind of supposed to be. It was just a chapter giving you insight on the villains perspective in the plot. Also some of you may recognize the 'devil dancing the pale moonlight' line as something the Joker did actually say in a TV show or movie (Can't remember) I kind of loved that line and thought to myself he should say it more often so I put it in :D
Anywhos please review, because as you guys know it literally means the whole world to me if you take the time to give me your opinions. Even if it`s just a few words I will SERIOUSLY appreciate it. I can`t beg enough :l please review, and to those of you who did thank you very much it means a lot to me C:
So that`s all for today, you can expect Zatanna or Nightwing in the next chapter, because I have a side story planned for the couple that doesn`t have to do with the major plot, but they are one of the many minor plots I intend to bring in. Also once again if you have character requests let me know and I`ll do my best C:
Well that`s all folks, please follow, favourite and REVIEW 3
