Chapter Three- Keep your friends close and your enemies closer
Batman's head hurt and the room was spinning and he still felt the shocking sensation from that cattle prod that Joker got him with. Batman looked around the room he was in the Gardens sitting at a table and sitting across from him was Selina, she wearing a strange outfit, she was wearing a dress that was blue and white, and she had on a blonde wig that covered up her naturally dark hair, this was very odd indeed, who had changed her clothes and why, and then he heard a voice from across the table it was a calm voice if not a little odd, the voice began to speak:
"Ah, Batman your awake, that is just wonderful, Alice is here and so won't you have some Tea? it's special Tea, my special Tea, my special-ilty, hehehehehehheh"
"What are you talking about? And who is Alice?" Batman said he looked at Selina again and she just shrugged not saying a word but smiled sweetly at him.
Then he heard the voice again and now he saw who it belonged to, it was a short little man in a green suit wearing a big Hat, way too big for him, there also was playing card in the brine of the hat, he had a wicked smile, it turned Batman's stomach, he wanted to throw up but found composer and listened to that little guy.
"Look across from you Batman, right there the woman sitting there is Alice and you are in my Wonderland, I'm called the Mad Hatter and oh what fun we shall have, Batman, hehehehehehe" the voice said
"My name is Selina not Alice, you little freak, don't listen to him Batman, we have to find a way to get free" Selina said
"Right, this is just too weird" Batman said struggling to free himself from the binds on his wrists, whoever was behind this was one twisted fuck, Batman was not pleased but Selina really did look cute in that little dress, and that whole dress thing really wasn't Selina, he never saw her in a dress before, and maybe this would start something new and maybe she'd keep that dress after this was all over and they could cosplay, Batman laughed silently.
Selina was also struggling to free herself just like Bruce was, these binds were really tight.
"Why struggle Batman, it's useless to resist, resistance is futile, heheheheh, we are to play for a while Joker doesn't want any company that is why he asked me to show you what a good time could be, I believe that you don't know what a good time is Batman, Alice have you ever had a good time?" Hatter said looking at Selina
"Shove it up your ass, you nut, and again stop calling me that name, my name is Selina got it, Selina, S..El...INA!" Catwoman said angrily
"Wow your a feisty one aren't you, please have some tea, it's really delicious, not thirsty would you prefer a saucer of Milk then?" Hatter said
"No thanks, not thirsty I don't drink Poison, don't drink any Batman he means to poison us, he must be working for Joker" Selina said
"I know I figured that out as soon as he said it was special Tea, his special-ilty" Batman said
"No, no Batman, you can't leave we've only just began, so enjoy, you to Catwoman, it's getting cold and Tea is best served warm after all" Hatter responded
"When I get free I'm going to scratch your eyes out with my claws and then Batman will beat you senseless" Selina said
Hatter went silent for a moment, and nobody spoke, they just sat there in silence, Batman and Catwoman exchanging worried looks, this night was going to be a long one, but at least they were together again.
Back in Ivy's lair
Harley and Ivy had both taken off all their clothes and where completely naked. Harley and Ivy were kissing each other all over and their breasts pressed gently together, Harley continued to lick Ivy from head to toe and Ivy reciprocated. Their passion heating up, now Harley moved down to Ivy's vagina and started to pleasure her with her tongue, Ivy moaned in ecstasy, Ivy hadn't been touched in a long time this was heavenly, Harley was tending to Ivy's garden and Ivy enjoyed it. Now it was Harley's turn to feel pleasure Ivy's tongue was long and it felt great, Harley moaned like a wilder-beast. Harley nibbled on Ivy's earlobe and Ivy screamed out with pleasure.
Now the girls faced each other and pressed their vagina's together in a scissoring motion they proceeded to grind on each other and moaned from the pleasure, Ivy was sucking on Harley's breasts like a baby gently caressing her nipples with her tongue, Harley did the same to Ivy. At this point Joker had slipped into the room from a side entrance, he didn't say anything just enjoyed the show, He always wanted to see some girl on girl action, like any normal guy.
Harley and Ivy had both cum and where tired from all the pleasure they just laid there on the Venus fly trap still completely nude they just held each other, Joker waited for the opportune moment to say something he knew Ivy would be pissed that he had seen her naked but she'd get over it eventually.
"AHEM, ladies sorry to interrupt this very sentimental moment but Harley I've missed you terribly and have a present for you" Joker said
"Joker, why are you in my liar and haven't you ever heard of knocking, how rude" Ivy said placing her hands over her exposed breasts, she was embarrassed alright.
Harley was so excited to see Joker that she pushed off from Ivy and ran over to Joker giving him a huge hug her naked body pressing against his purple suit he had a huge grin on his face, he was still eyeing the naked Ivy from where he was standing. Ivy's eyes were red with hatred she covered up mostly with the Venus fly trap plant almost like a blanket.
"Oh puddin, I've missed you too, this has been a crazy night for sure, and so what is the present hon?" Harley said
"Here,I want you to put this on" Joker said handing Harley a beautiful Wedding dress, Harley was overwhelmed with joy that she nearly fell over, but Joker caught her.
"Wow puddin you mean...is this what I think it is?" Harley asked
"Indeed cupcake, tonight at the Chapel in the mansion, one hour, then we will be man and wife, I've arranged for a special guest to be our preacher, and we need not worry about the Bat interfering the Hatter has him occupied giving us the edge and our other friends Slade and company will not make it through the Intensive Treatment ward, Strange has it locked down tight, beside they are in for a surprise when they get there, hahahahaha" Joker said
"Yay, I'm so excited that I just can't hide it, I'm about to lose control and I think I like it, puddin, oh what about Ivy?" Harley said
"Yes, Ivy dear I haven't forgotten about you, this is for you" Joker said throwing a purple dress to Ivy, she caught it
"Thanks Joker, I don't quite understand but I'll wear this, though Purple isn't really my color I think it's more of yours, I like Red, but it's fine" Ivy said
"It's reversible, it's Red in the inside so just wear it inside out if you prefer, you're the maid of Honor, this is Harley's big night after all" Joker said
"Really, I'm glad you thought of me Harley" Ivy said looking at her best friend
"No problem Ivy, Well we should really start getting ready then, one hour right" Harley said holding the dress close to her naked body
"Harley where's Cherry? Wasn't she with you?" Joker asked
"Who is Cherry?" Ivy asked
"Our daughter, Ivy, and she's safe with Friends in Keystone city puddin" Harley responded
"Who do you know in Keystone?" Joker asked
"Canary of course, she's been watching Cherry for us" Harley said
"Then after the ceremony go to her dear, stay with her it will be too dangerous here for you and her, trust me darling and when the time is right I will find you" Joker said
Wow, Ivy was shocked at the news that Joker and Harley had a kid, that came as more of a surprise then the fact that they were getting married, Ivy always knew that Harley would someday marry Joker, but she never expected them to have a kid together, she would ask Harley about it later to get more details.
"certainly puddin, Wow Mrs. J, Mrs. Joker, Mrs. Harley Joker, Mrs. Harley Quinn Joker, now that one I like, has a certain ring to it doesn't snickerdoodle" Harley said swinging the dress around she was still completely naked Joker couldn't hide that shit eating grin that formed on his as he was still eyeing Ivy she too hadn't put anything on, but now the Venus fly trap covered up most of her but Joker could see he curves and he enjoyed it
"Certainly does, now I better talk with our guest so he doesn't try to back out at the last minute, I will be waiting for you at the Chapel" Joker said
"Yup we're going to the Chapel and we're going to get married, wow this is so awesome isn't it Ivy?" Harley said
"Sure is, I'm happy for you Harley" Ivy said putting the dress on the red side up Joker was right for a change it was a reversible dress
"Excellent, now I must go, see you really soon honey" Joker said kissing Harley and then leaving the girls to get ready he had business to do.
At the house of Commissioner Gordon back in Gotham, his only daughter Barbara the former Batgirl wheeled her wheelchair to the window to look out at the night sky, her heart was heavy with worry her boyfriend Tim Drake hadn't come by to see her yet tonight, he normally did when he made his rounds. He is the current Robin, Dick or Nightwing was the first and the second Robin Jason Todd, well that was a sad story, and Barb didn't want to remember it. She had been trying to reach out to Bruce but he wasn't answering his intercom,so she decided to try Alfred at Wayne Manor to try to get an understanding of why Batman wasn't responding she hoped that he wasn't in serious trouble, but knowing Bruce she was certain that he was.
Alfred answered the phone at Wayne Manor, it was Barbara she sounded really worried
"Hello, Wayne Manor this is Alfred, how may I help you?" Alfred said
"Alfred, hi it's Barb Gordon, I'm having trouble reaching Bruce, Tim is missing and I'm really worried" Barb said
"Master Bruce and ms Kyle are at the old Arkham Asylum, trying to stop Joker, he is probably just too busy however if you'd like, Master Dick is here he can help" Alfred said
"Hold on a minute Barb I'll get him" Alfred said putting the phone down There was silence then she heard the familiar sound of her ex on the line
"Barb, is that you Barb, god it's good to hear from you what seems to be the trouble" Dick said
"Yes it is, Dick good to hear your voice too, it's been awhile, sorry this isn't a social call, but I'm really worried about Tim, he went out tracking a lead on Bane, but he hasn't come by yet or tried to contact me, And Bruce won't answer his intercom either, Alfred said he was at Arkham? What is going on here?" Barb said
"Something is defiantly wrong it's not like Bruce to ignore his intercom maybe it's busted, as for Tim, I'll look for him, then I'm going to Arkham to help Bruce, why is Bane in Gotham I thought he was in Arkham with the rest of the crazies, there must be something that we're missing here, I will find these answers, but first off I will find Tim, I promise" Dick said
Damn rookie, Nightwing thought to himself
"I knew I could count on you, Dick thanks" Barb said
"No problem at all, Barb, by the way where was Tim last seen?" Dick said
"My father is still on latest lead he saw Tim in west Distract or old Gotham by the subway transit system" Barb said
"West Gotham? Then he could be anywhere, I'll see if I can find your dad and ask him and then I'll go from there" Dick said
"Your too sweet Dick, I really appreciate this I do" Barb said
"I understand well I better start looking for Tim" Dick said hanging up the phone he kissed Star and borrowed one of Bruce's motorcycles' he headed into Gotham to help out his friend
One hour passed and at the Chapel in the old Mansion Harley was walking down the aisle in that beautiful wedding dress that Joker gave her, he was there in a Purple tuxedo it looked cute on him his face had that big smile that she loved so much, her own face makeup matching his she had a big smile on her face as will, she was getting married, tonight was her night and the Bat was nowhere to be seen this was perfect.
Harley met Joker at the Altar, Ivy standing next to her on her right Joker on the left everyone was here but her sweet Cherry, but she'd see her soon enough.
The preacher began the ceremony
"Dearly beloved we are gathered her today to bare witness the union of Jack White and Harleen Quinzel, there are many kinds of love.."
"Wait a second who is getting married to whom, do it right, so sorry Harley dear" Joker butted in
"Sorry I mean the union of Joker and Harley, and if there is any reason that these two should not be married speak now or forever hold your peace" The preacher said
"Continuing on rgghrgg, sorry now the exchanging of vows" The preacher continued
"Harley, from the moment I first met you I was madly in love and I promise to as long as we both live that I will cease all beatings, and only beat you up with my undying love" Joker said holding her hands she blushed a little
"Mr. J I promise to never be with anyone other than you, you, and our little daughter Cherry, you all I ever need or want, I love you more than words can say" Harley said
"Now you can kiss...kiss..you may kiss the Bride, sorry I have to go, I know pronounce you man and and wife" the preachers appearance was starting to change he ran off
"Is he going to be ok?" Ivy asked Joker
"He just needs a few minutes to gain composer, he does take on many appearances after all, hahahahahaha" Joker said
"Really" Ivy said puzzled
"anyway this was wonderful Mr. J, it was just as I imagined it, now I need to get our little angel Cherry and then we will be able to live happily ever after" Harley said
"Yes and I should make sure that our friend is ok he did run off rather quickly" Joker said
Harley and Ivy looked at each other then back at Joker who left to find the preacher, he sure was acting weird, Harley hugged Ivy again and kissed her and with her tongue wiggled it around in her mouth Ivy did it as well they where playing with their tongues then Harley asked Ivy a question, Ivy had to think about the answer then respond
"Ivy I know your the mistress of seduction and all, which is super hot but have you ever really loved somebody, honey I mean like how I love Mr. J and Batman loves that Cat Bitch, who does Ivy have?" Harley asked
"Harley, if there was ever one man that I ever truly loved, it would be Bane, I don't have to seduce him, wonder where in this crazy house he is?" Ivy responded sniffing Harley's bouquet of flowers they smelled wonderful.
"Aww Ivy likes the bruiting type, huh" Harley said winking
"I really do, don't I" Ivy said blushing a little
In the next room Joker had found the preacher but something was wrong he wasn't a man anymore he was completely covered in clay, he grew to be almost ten feet tall and he was looking right at Joker, now Joker was getting scared, "this wasn't part of the deal Karlo " Joker said
"Out of the way Joker, rgghghghg, I don't want to hurt you or the girls in next room, my medication, give it to me, NOW" Clayface shouted
"Medication? What are you babbling about Karlo, I haven't been on any meds in a long time and you don't need meds either, your free now Karlo do as you will" Joker said
"very well Joker, I shall" Clayface said jumping out the window and running away, what became of Clayface after that well some say he is still acting. He has changed his appearance so many time that now he is considered one of worlds hottest stars, his name Johnny Depp.
"That was very odd indeed, oh well time to find Crane I suppose, we have to go into the final phases of the Alan Parson's Project, hahahahahahahhhaaah" Joker said.
At the same time back in the Gardens, Batman had finally got free from the binds, he was going to lunge at Hatter, but Selina had beat him to it she too got free and then she made good on her promise, she proceeded to scratch the Hatter repeatedly he screamed in pain, Selina had scratched him so much that she had blinded him, then she backed off, It was Batman's turn to attack now, Batman grabbed Hatter and started to pound his face into the table repeatably it was a rather brutal scene, Hatter had never felt such pain, he would have passed out had Batman not eased up a little, he had Hatter by the collar of his shirt and demanded some answers.
"Talk Hatter, I know that you work for Joker, now where is he, WHERE IS HE!" Batman shouted
"I don't know alright, he wouldn't say, this way that way, up is down and down is up, left is right and right is left" Hatter said winching in pain
"This isn't a joke I need to know what is really going on here so spill it Hatter" Batman said
"I'm not joking I don't know honestly I'm just a subordinate maybe Penguin knows, he's in the old Mansion, doubt he'd just give up the answers though, you know him all too well now don't you Batman" Hatter said finally passing out from Batman's onslaught
"Penguin? what does Cobblepot know, I thought that he didn't like Joker" Batman said to Selina
"I can persuade him, I'm a woman after all and you know how he is with woman" Selina responded
"Ok, maybe Freeze knows, I had overheard a conversation between Joker and Freeze earlier something about Joker having Freeze's wife? A lot of this makes very little sense and now this odd little dwarf" Batman said picking up the Hatter's hat it weighted a ton, how the hell was that little guy able to wear this thing it must have been a metric ton. Who was the mad Hatter really, that would be a question that Bruce would answer later right now he had to move on.
Selina had that feeling of unease again, she took off the stupid wig but was still in her Alice dress, where were her normal clothes? That little Hatter guy was bizarre he talked kind of like Riddler, where was Riddler? Funny that he hadn't appeared yet but she knew that they would cross paths again sooner or later. She had to get her leather outfit back she hated dresses they didn't suit her, she had always been the tomboyish type ever since she could remember hell she never even played with dolls, but that was because she had grown up alone on the streets and was an orphan much like Bruce but unlike Bruce she never knew either of her parents, Joker was right about that.
Joker? What was that weasel up to now, she could tell that Bruce was thinking of a way to find him and then it occurred to her, she knew the hatred that Bruce felt towards Joker, that much was obvious but this deep seeded hatred would drive Batman insane, she had to think of a way to get his mind off of Joker at least for the time being, she didn't want to split up again, not just yet, then she got an idea in her head and smiled and then she spoke
"Bruce honey, seeing as though this might be our last night alive, I want to ask you to do a favor for me"
"Sure, what do you have in mind?" Bruce said staring at Selina who started to undress right there and in front of him until she was completely naked.
"Make love to me? Right here and now, please Bruce for old time sake" Selina said grabbing his hands and placing them on her naked breasts. Bruce gently groped his beloved Selina they have had sex before but for some reason this time was different, he didn't understand what it was he just continued to feel her up. Maybe like Selina thought this was their last night alive and she was right to feel that way this place was defiantly evil but at least they had each other. She placed his hand in her mouth and kissed it with her tongue then she placed those same fingers in her pussy and guided him back and forth until she couldn't take any more. Then Selina unbuttoned his pants pulled out his dick and placed it gently in her mouth and began to suck on it her tongue was rough against his manhood, but he enjoyed it none the less, she stared up at him from her position on the ground he was about to cum, but found a way to control it. Then Selina grabbed his penis again and placed it in her vagina and proceeded to move up and down on it. They moaned with pleasure he was still groping her breasts and she never knew such pleasures existed, Batman continued to thrust his cock lovingly in her Vagina it was warm and a few hours later she was about to cum as she was sure Bruce was, and then she said panting
"It's alright if you want to cum inside Brucie, in fact I want you to, hmmm, please I want to have your children"
"Ok here's goes, ugrghghgh" Bruce said releasing a ton of sperm into Selina again she moaned with pleasure and gently bite her lip. She was in ecstasy that was the best sex that they have ever had.
Bruce and Selina just lied there for a little while holding each other passionately, they were resting under the statue of his parents and he hadn't realized it until he looked up and his parents where smiling back at him.
"Bruce I was serious when I said that I want to have your children, and hopefully I will" Selina said
"I know, I want you too as well, I love you Selina" Bruce responded
"I love you too Bruce" Selina said giving him a kiss on his lips he kissed her back
From the monitor room in the guard station Edward Nigma or the Riddler had witnessed that little sex act, he admired Catwoman's figure and her naked body she was a knockout alright, damn lucky Batman, Riddler has never known true love but he devised a way to exploit it and then he noticed a certain strike team lead by Slade Wilson, what where they doing on Arkham?, who sent them? And why are they heading for Intensive Treatment?, Riddler had to stop them from getting to Strange it would be game over if they captured Strange or stopped Crane from poisoning Gotham, he'd put his reputation on the line then he remembered that he could patch into anybodies communication devices he was a technical genius after all he'd get in contact with Slade and send them into the trap but first he had to get them inside the building, where surly they would encounter a being of brute force waiting to ambush them if they make it to his liar, Riddler laughed to himself and then said " I love being a freaking genius."
He also saw Victor Zsaaz in the Medical building what was that lunatic up to now, it had only been mere hours since he broke out of the penitentiary and began his sick obsession with stalking poor Doctor Young. This he could use also to his advantage all of these other inmates where just making it too easy for him. Riddler would have Batman stop Zsaaz while he sent the Strike team into the trap they would never make it out of the sewers where Crane was preparing the final stage of that lame project that Joker came up with, the Alan Parson's Project what a stupid title, of course Joker said it was named after Doctor Parsons, but the truth was the Alan Parson's Project was a progressive Rock Band from the 1980's sometimes Joker was dumber then he lead on. Riddler would be the one who saved the day through the cover of darkness, sort of how the Bat does it.
Joker was distracted with his stupid wedding and didn't want anybody to disturb him, but man did Ivy ever look good in her red dress, she was like a Christmas present that he wanted to unwrap, Ivy would never let him near her though same goes for Joker. The only one that Ivy had ever cared for was Bane but he was no longer on Arkham he was the only one to ever escape and no doubt that he was rampaging through Gotham. As Riddler sat there twirling around his cane his legs up on console and a smirk on his face he said to himself "Who to mess with first? So many possibilities so little time, The Bat or perhaps the Strike team."
Riddler had to keep Strange out of harms way because not only was Riddler under contract with Strange but Riddler aimed to screw over Strange when the time came, that Strange was weird dude and that was unnerving to Nigma. Then it occurred to him he's contact Batman and have him go after Zsaaz and he'd also contact Slade tell them there was a hidden entrance that led to the back of Intensive Treatment and then they'd be trapped like Rats, this was perfect, Nigma laughed.
Slade and the three reminding members of the task force where outside of the Intensive Treatment building in the Northern section of Arkham Island they were hiding in the bushes under the guard towers, they had a clear view of the main entrance and there where guards just like Ivy had said she was as pretty as she was smart, if he ever had the chance he'd thank her again, then his intercom which he wore as an earpiece under his mask began to beep it must be Waller wanting a status update, he responded
"This is Slade, go ahead agent Waller"
"What is your current position? Are you at the Intensive Treatment Building yet" Waller said
" Just outside of it under the guard towers there is no way in from the main entrance we'll have to find another route, there has to be more then one entrance into a building of this size, it is under heavy guard just like Ivy had said" Slade said
"Remain vigilant task force, everything is riding on this mission, you have to stop the Joker at all cost, find an alternate route and….." Waller said the communication failing
"Agent Waller, Agent Waller do you copy" Slade said pressing on his earpiece
Slade was getting nothing but static, then he heard something it was faint at first then it got louder there was some kind of odd music and then he heard a voice not Waller's a male voice, it seemed familiar to him, then the voice spoke to him
"Greetings Task Force this Edward Nigma the Riddler, I beat you have questions but remember it isn't you who needs answers it is I, we are going to play a little game, you can't say no" Riddler said
"Get on with it Nigma, what do you want?" Slade said
"Great ok so you need to get inside the Intensive Treatment but it's under Heavy Guard, so what are you to do, find an alternate route continue under the cover darkness, think about it Solid Snake what do you do" Riddler said
" Who the fuck is Solid Snake?" Slade asked
"This is a stealth mission and you're a government agent now so you are Solid Snake, what you've never played any video games Slade, what kind of a childhood did you have?" Riddler asked
"This is stupid Nigma you are just wasting my time, so get on with it, obviously you know something so spill it, and pray to god that I don't find you because I'll gut you like a pig if I do" Slade said
"Ouch your just like I figured so anyway I'll help but first a Riddle" Riddler said
"Fine go ahead" Slade said
"Excellent, ok so the first Riddle, you sit on me but you can't take me with you, what am I?" Riddler asked
"A Chair" Slade responded
"Exactly wow you answered that one quickly, ok a deal is a deal, now for the secret entrance, do you see that fenced area to the left of the main entrance looks like it leads to a cave right? It does just before you go inside the cave there is grate on the side of the building use it and then your inside, you'll be in the air ducts if your quite enough you won't bring any attention to yourselves once your inside go through those doors they lead to main elevator shafts, then you can take those down to the sewers but I warn you be quite as to not disturb any Crocodiles that may be down there, they don't like loud noises that is your hint for sneaking up on your objective, I know you plan on stopping Joker, best of luck task force I'll be in contact, and don't worry about Waller, your in good hands, that first one was easy the next one will be harder, good luck Slade" Riddler said
"Can we trust him?" Frost asked Slade placing her hand on his shoulder
"No but we really don't have much of a choice now do we, time to move guys" Slade said as he motioned for the team to follow him over to the fenced area next to the Building this was almost too easy, there was more going on here then Nigma lead Slade to believe, they could be walking into a trap.
Victor Zsaaz was walking around the Medical Building searching for Doctor Young, oh she was a special one alright, he's killed several people before but Doc Young would be the greatest kill that he ever had, oh how he wanted to kill, he needed to kill, he longed to kill, then he'd bang her beautiful corpse that is what he wanted, he giggled with excitement and said
"Doctor Young where are you? Doctor Young, I'm coming for you, heheheheheh"
Harley was wondering around Gotham she had to get back to her sweet little Cherry, she had gone back into the sewers under the Mansion the same way that she had gotten to Arkham, if she could just get to the city limits then she could find her way back to Canary's. She was still in her wedding dress but now it was tattered and torn but she didn't care she had to get to her daughter no matter what.
"Don't worry my sweet little Cherry your mother is coming to see you" Harley said
In Keystone city at the house of the Black Canary, sweet little Cherry Pie who had been sleeping soundly in the bedroom upstairs, suddenly awoke tears running down her cheeks making the clown makeup she wore run, she missed her mother terribly she cried out for Harley
"Mommy, Mommy I want my Mommy"
Canary ran upstairs to console the little girl, she understood that Cherry was just missing her parents, Canary never liked the Joker but Harley was a friend, and Cherry Pie was just so damn cute.
"Shhh, Cherry, it's going to be alright, I'm sure that your Mother is fine and maybe she's on her way back, Flash is out on patrol again so if he sees her he'll bring her back" Canary said holding Cherry close to her, her breasts gently touching against the little girls face, Cherry could hear Canary's heartbeat, she was a very pretty lady and a very nice one too, Cherry calmed down a little but was shaking, Canary just held the little girl for a few minutes.
"You know what Cherry I may just have some dolls that you can play with if you want, come with me sweetie, and we will look around for them, would you like that" Canary said
"ok, thank you miss Canary, that sounds fun" Cherry said
Cherry understood that Canary was just trying to find a way to get her mind off missing her mother, she was such a nice lady.
Batman and Catwoman where still naked in the Gardens under the statue of his parents, they where in a spooning position, Selina grabbed Bruce's hand again and kissed it then she draped it over her exposed breasts she didn't care about anything else just being here with Bruce was all she wanted then Batman's intercom beeped, it was under the Bat Cowl but when he spoke into it Selina recognized the voice on the other end all to well, even before he spoke, it was Riddler, what did he want?
"I have to say Batman, what an erotic display that was, so what kind of a Bat has sex with a Cat? The answer is...you Batman" Riddler said
"Nigma you little perv what is it that you want" Selina said into Batman's intercom
"Oh Catwoman, quite the pleasant view from where I am I can see it all, nice, now put the Bat on" Riddler said
"It's me, Nigma what is it you want, were busy here" Batman said
"Always bruiting ah Batman, how can Catwoman stand it? Anyway I thought that you may want know that poor Doctor Young in in great peril it appears our psychotic friend Zsaaz want to kill her, then make sweet love to her corpse, he is one twisted fuck now isn't he" Riddler said
"Zsaaz, that isn't good, where, Nigma, WHERE" Batman shouted
"I'll tell you, be first a little Riddle, tell me Batman what gets wetter as it dries, think about it Batman" Riddler said
"This is stupid Nigma" Batman said
"Psst it's a towel Bruce" Catwoman said
"Hey no helping that's cheating Catwoman" Riddler said angrily
"We answered your stupid Riddle so where is Doctor Young?" Batman said
"Fine I'll tell, where does she work Batman? she is a Doctor after all isn't she? A Doctor. That is your Hint" Riddler said
"The Medical Building" Batman said
"Exactly, better hurry...bye for now" Nigma said hanging up then he laughed slightly
Batman and Catwoman exchanged worried glances and then after sharing another long passionate kiss they got dressed and Batman said
"Selina I better go save Doctor Young, you go see Penguin and we will rendezvous later, here take this radio we can stay in contact with these I patched it into my Bat intercom, well see you later" Batman said
"Alright Bruce, see ya" Selina responded hoping that this wasn't going to be the last time that they ever saw each other.
Slade had made it into Intensive Treatment, Riddler was right they had gone in through the air ducts and now the team was standing in front of the elevators below was the entrance to the sewers, it smelled horrible worse than the sewers that Harley had lead them through earlier. Shark was getting nervous, perhaps he was afraid of what Riddler had told them, Frost tried to console him but he was too shaken up to speak. Slade led them through the entrance to the sewers and then after walking through another door they where in the sewers alright and the smell was amplified and a sign said Keep Out and Shark's skin went pale as he heard a loud booming voice
"Get out, GET OUT. This is my domain, if you don't leave then I'll peel the flesh from your bones"
"What was that you guys" Shark said nervously
Shark looked to Frost she shrugged and then gave him a wink, Deadshot said nothing and Slade just keep moving forward
Ahead in the distance Slade saw a bunch of canisters of fear gas they looked like drums and there was a ton of them too, Slade spoke to the others
"Must be the fear gas, I don't see Joker or Scarecrow, why are they just setting here unattended"
"Not sure" Frost said
Again no word from Deadshot he was really silent for some reason.
The team moved forward and then Shark screamed a giant Crocodile was standing there right in front of them protecting the canisters, that must be the guard.
"So you must be the welcoming committee, move it" Slade said
The Crocodile just stared at the task force drool running down his chest from his mouth he growled at them and then spoke in that same booming voice
"I said get out, get out, this is my liar, no one comes into Croc's liar and lives" Croc said
"No can do scaly, now move it I have to get to those canisters" Slade said
"Arggh, get out" Croc said lunging towards the team he was aiming for Frost and then Shark interfered, he wasn't going to let Frost get hurt not as long as he still had a breathe in his body.
Frost was so scared she wasn't able to move, in fact she couldn't
Croc continued his lunging he was almost upon Frost she could smell his fowl breathe it was as hideous as he was, Shark jumped in front of his beloved she was trembling in fear, he growled at the Crocodile
"I won't let you hurt her, if it's a fight you want then it's a fight you get"
Croc didn't say anything he grabbed Shark and they fell into the water, Shark put up a fight but in the water he wasn't a match for Croc. Ironic given his name and all.
"Shark, Shark" Frost screamed
He didn't respond, he didn't even scream, there was no sign of either Croc or Shark, just a pool of blood on the surface, the team then knew that he didn't survive. Shark was dead and Croc left the others, he had his meal so he was satisfied. Frost screamed his name but it was already too late
"Shark, no Shark" Frost screamed tears running down her cheeks, She felt the hole in her heart growing Slade walked up to her and spoke in a gentle voice
"I'm Sorry Frost but we have to keep going we are so close" Slade said hugging her gently for a moment
"I know, the mission is almost over" Frost said hugging Slade back not wanting to let go she wasn't going to lose Slade as well
Deadshot just nodded and the three of them proceeded toward the canisters Slade readied the explosives he aimed to blow the canisters sky high and then the closer they got to the canisters the room started to spin Slade feel to the ground and grabbed his head Frost and Deadshot did the same they heard laughter and a voice that seemed to be everywhere at once.
"No, no,no Slade I can't have you ruining our plans now can I, you are in my world now, there is no escape it" Scarecrow said
"Damn it's Scarecrow" Slade said
"Yes it is, now what are you afraid of Deathstroke, there has to be something, now what could it be" Crane said
"I have no Fears" Slade said
"No you do, everybody has a fear of something" Crane said
Just like that Slade found himself in a house wearing normal clothes and Frost was there as well she too was wearing normal clothes, she was fixing breakfast, they were married? What was this all about it wasn't that he didn't like her but this wasn't like Slade then she spoke
"Morning honey, sleep well?"
"Sure, next to you who wouldn't" Slade responded
Then two kids came into the kitchen they hugged Slade, he was father? None of this made any sense this must be the affect of fear gas. What was Crane trying to prove with this stupid little fantasy.
"Your fear Slade is the fear of commitment, hahahahahahahaha, a typical male fear" Scarecrow said
"Shut the fuck up Crane, show yourself, your little fantasy ends here" Slade said
"Oh your no fun, I broke Batman's spirit why can't I do the same to you" Crane said
"Batman? No matter I will find you and kill you" Slade said
"Don't worry you'll all be dead soon enough" Crane said
Then they were back in the sewers again Slade stood up and helped Frost up, Deadshot had his gun readied that Scarecrow thing was too weird he'd be ready if Crane returned.
Frost stopped in her tracks she was thinking about something Slade spoke to her
"what is it Frost?"
"Slade I know it was all just Scarecrow, playing his mind games but I kind of liked that little fantasy it was sweet, want to make it a reality?" Frost said
"Not right now Frost, we have to finish this mission, then I suppose we could give it a try" Slade said he lifted his mask slightly and kissed her passionately
"Wow Slade I never thought that you'd say something like that" Frost responded shocked and a little embarrassed that kiss just now why'd he do that she thought then he spoke again
"Whatever, I'm going to blow that fear gas sky high, it is going to be one hell of a show" Slade said he readied the explosives then Crane spoke again
"No this is impossible"
"Game over Scarecrow, get ready for one big explosion" Slade said
Scarecrow lunged towards Slade to protect his fear gas when Croc jumped out of the water and grabbed Scarecrow dragging him into the water he couldn't face his own fears.
"That's Ironic, isn't it?" Frost said
"Finally, time to end this" Slade said placing the explosives on the ground when he felt someone holding a gun to the back of his head.
"Sorry Slade but I can't allow that, now get up, put you hands up and drop your weapons" Deadshot said
"Traitor, why do this and why now?" Slade said
"Fool I've been working with Strange and Joker this whole time, it was just a matter of time when you'd slip up, take them to Strange" Deadshot said
A group of armed guards appeared before the remaining members of the Suicide Squad, fighting was out of the question they were surrounded.
Frost just looked confused and looked to Slade, he just shrugged and then they were taken to the elevators, Joker had watched everything from the shadows and he said
"Now that's funny, Slade was tricked by the new Deadshot oh this was fun indeed, now without farther delay let the final phase of the Alan Parson's Project commence."
End of Chapter Three, Chapter Four coming soon
