Killer Croc was pretty pissed off but then again, there were very few times where he wasn't pissed off. And this was one of those times where his anger boiled to the point where it was extremely terrifying.

'Oh boy, this should be fun,' Kara thought to herself, it was all about luring the big bad beast into a point where she could take him down.

'Well fun isn't how I would put it but it should be interesting, even though we just ran out of ammo,' Karen thought and sure enough the last monster plant was thrown to the wayside.

'You've got to be kidding me,' Diana thought and Karen shrugged.

'Wish I was kissing you actually, but no this is kind of terrifying,' Karen said, all attempts at humor fading from her voice.

She used her heat vision on the ground and got Croc's attention. It was a way that no one normally wanted to get Croc's attention but he did.

"I'll tear you up!" Croc growled, lunging for Karen and trying to take a bite out of her but the blonde expertly ducked his attack.

"How about no?" Karen asked, Croc lumbered after her. The blonde's heart skipped a few more beats, as she shot off into the opposite direction like a cork.

As fast as a speeding bullet, that was a good…..well that was a good way to describe where she was going. Croc tore after her like a bat out of hell and Karen continued to pick up the pace after him.

'Just a little bit closer, that's it come closer, I got you now you gruesome son of a bitch,' Karen thought, detaching the sharp spiral from the tower.

Like a javelin she flung it hard at Croc but Croc caught it in his large hand .He laughed, thunderously.

"What was that supposed to do? "Croc mocked them.

"Well, hopefully it was going to pierce your big skin, but obviously, it's doing a good job at distracting you," Karen said, releasing the pollen sacs into the air that she collected from the pants.

Killer Croc roamed around, it appeared that he had a bit of allergy, his eyes watered and it blocked off his sense of smell. He growled loudly, swinging his arms around, gritting his teeth, the entire nine yards.

"You can't hide from me anywhere, I can still hear you….."

Kara clapped her hands on the Church Bell Tower bell and it caused Croc's head to start ringing. The blonde then used her super breath to stagger Croc back a little bit.

"Lure him to the harbor," Karen whispered to him and Croc staggered around.

"You got an idea?"

"Let's hope that it works," Karen said, and Diana grabbed him, running up his back with a very daring move and latching her lasso around his jaws.

Diana jumped off, snapping his head down. She braced herself, rolling backwards and then coming back up to her feet. It was a tricky move to do and one could say that she was showing up.

"Always wanted a taste of you, Amazon," Croc whispered, licking his lips when he lumbered towards the Princess. When his hunger was not sated, he could get really nasty, and that point was proven anew.

"Wow, both perverted and kind of scary, that takes talent," Karen said, picking up one of the spiked vines and whipping it forward.

Croc screamed as it caught him in the eyeballs, not a painless attack for anyone but most certainly it was not a painless attack for Croc.

"COME BACK AND FACE ME!"

"Ah, you can't smell, you can't see, well you might as well not be able to hear this as well," Kara commented, practically mocking the large monster.

Croc crushed her and Kara nailed her heat vision. He screamed which meant that she finally found a sensitive spot on his sensitive and armored flash.

She picked up a crate and pulled out the bricks inside. She began to fling them at Croc at super speed, with Diana setting a trap next to them.

"Come on you can do it, you can do it!"

Karen launched at Killer Croc with all of the force of a super powered missile and the large beast staggered.

"I'll take great pleasure in devouring all three of you," Croc growled and now the trap was set, the trap was sprung.

Croc was catapulted into the murky depths of the water beneath and he landed into the harbor, sinking deeper, deeper.

"Now," Kara said and Karen smiled, both of them using their super ice breath to freeze the water over.

They had built an impromptu ice skating rink in the middle of Gotham City.

"Well that was fun," Kara said, listening but Croc was put into hibernation.

"Yeah, he'll come back, more dangerous than ever, when that ice thaws," Karen said, she figured out as much.

Diana chimed in with a few words of her own. "Well he always does."

"You're really positive, you know that?" Kara asked and the two of them looked at her. "But you're right, but it still doesn't make it any less wrong."

"No, it doesn't, but we should help the others," Diana said, taking charge of the matter and leaving Croc in his icy tomb.

So, they had been set back a little bit from where they were. Poison Ivy did not take not getting her way too well. So that was kind of true to form from what Harry read about her .With each passing year, her mind…..well her mind got rather more deranged.

'Harry, do you know what the fuck is going on in there?' Chloe asked. 'Because we're being attacked by a giant beanstalk out here that's more terrifying than any giant that might be on top of it.'

'I have a good idea, yes,' Harry said, shaking his head, and giving a long sigh. 'Do you want the long form of it or the short form of it?"

'Whatever you want,' Chloe thought, her jaw set when she saw the Legion Girls team up to take down the giant beanstalk out of the corner of her eye.

'Ivy dunked herself into the pits, and the plants just got more insane from deeper inside here,' Harry thought and he heard Chloe's long sigh from the other end.

'Oh, that all,' Chloe thought, dodging the vines that tried to entangle her. She needed a really big pair of hedgeclippers, or maybe an entire vat of plant killer. Either of them would do really.

"You should know better than to try and outrun mother nature."

"Seriously, that statement after all of these years, come on Ivy, could you at least get something new?" Barbara asked, shaking her head. She closed her eyes and launched herself high into the air, in an attempt to take out the dangerous plants that threatened to squeeze her to death. Barbara blinked, these things were getting a bit too close for cover.

"Where did she go anyway?" Cir-El asked, her super strength ripped through the plant monsters and she dropped one of them down on the ground.

"Don't worry, we'll find her and put a stop to her."

Barbara believed that he wanted to put a stop to her but she was not sure as to how he would put a stop to her. The redhead shook her head, launching herself up into the air and slamming her fists down on the plant monster. "Oh, and how are you going to do that?"

Harry smiled at her. "Don't worry, I've got a plan."

"Should I be worried about this?" Barbara asked and Harry smiled.

'We're on our way, we just dealt with Croc,' Kara informed him and Harry smiled.

'Good get down here as soon as you can, but be careful, it's starting to become like a jungle out there,' Harry told them and Karen smiled.

'Yeah, I noticed,' Karen agreed, plowing through the plant monsters that tried to attack her outside of the city. They were far more dangerous than the last set, which was really saying something given how dangerous the last set was.

Karen drew back her fist and punched through the creature with reckless abandon. She nearly stung her knuckles but could draw back fairly easily.

Harry returned fire, conjuring a magical axe.

"Time to do some serious gardening," Harry said and Barbara could not resist making the next point.

"You know, I've never seen anyone in my entire life do any gardening with an axe," Barbara said and Harry swung for the fences, channeling an obscene amount of magic through the axe when he brought it down. The plants screamed when it connected and he was sure that Ivy shrieked in agony as well.

Somehow, it turned the plants back to a natural state. It took a lot of magic but he did it. Ivy's screams got even more intense the more that Harry plowed through. She was slowly and surely losing all sense of herself. The screams continued to echo, with Harry plowing his way through.

The green blood spilled onto the ground and Barbara looked over her shoulder, frowning at Harry.

"Oh dear, she doesn't seem too happy," Barbara commented and Harry nodded.

"You will pay for your crimes against me."

The vines were covering their pathway, which meant that any time, something could attack.

Harry paused, he heard a rustling from within the vines. He sensed that Diana, Kara, and Karen were just outside, but they had been caught up in the fight outside that the rest of the Legion had been caught up in.

"Stay sharp."

"You don't need to tell me twice," Barbara said with a grimace, shaking her head. Her nerves were on a hair trigger and something was up.

The giant Venus fly trap monster that Ivy had been hibernating with rose from the depths.

"It's hungry, I think," Barbara said.

'Yeah, you think!' Chloe yelled, relaying the message to Harry. The blonde was trying very hard to not lose her head. Granted, it was a hard endeavor all things considered and she very nearly freaked out something fierce. 'And there's one in the city, it's ginormous.'

"Time to give it some indigestion," Harry said, conjuring the proper amount of chemicals. He had to time this right, either he killed the plant monster or he blew them all to Kingdom Come.

He flicked his wrist into the mouth of the monster and it started to swell up, and blew up really nicely.

Okay the plant guts all over the three of them weren't a good thing but at least they were closer to reaching their destination.

Harry, after a couple of false starts, made his way closer. The vines were attacking him but with less strength than they were before.

"Stay away from me."

"Oh, you've finally met someone who can't withstand your thrall…..and you can't handle the heat, can you?" Harry asked. He smiled when he approached the redhead, deflecting vines that would squeeze any man to death like they were absolutely nothing and to him, they were absolutely nothing. "Deep down inside what you've become, you're still that young girl who had big hopes and dreams for the world, Pam."

"No….that girl…..she was weak…..she could never…..she never did," Poison Ivy said, shaking her head. Her plants were terrified and went away from her as she was having a bit of a mental breakdown. "You did this, you terrified them, come back my babies, come back, come back."

Her constant whimpering, pleading for her babies to come back escalated after a few seconds and she shook her head, breathing heavily.

"Not being able to be touched was a problem for you wasn't it? Without killing anyone, it drove you deeper into your work, and I dare say into your obsession. And what happened to the only friend you had that weren't your plants…"

"Don't bring her up," Poison Ivy said, angry. She still saw what the clown did in her worse nightmares. Once she took control of Gotham City, he was the first to be reduced into mulch. It was the most satisfying death she had and it was all downhill from there.

"Well, I won't then but you got a lot of problems, and they haven't gotten any better…."

"I control this city," Poison Ivy said and her temper completely flared up.

"You lost control a long time ago, Pam, you just don't know it, it's sad really, a mind like yours could be capable of so much more, but you're becoming lock the monsters that you sworn vengeance upon," Harry said, stepping closer towards her, almost closing the gap between the two of them.

Poison Ivy could feel herself being driven breathless by his mere presence. His green eyes bored into hers and it was hard to even breath.

"I'm not like them, I'm never like them, they're monsters, I'm trying to make things much better."

"Well, you might have been, but is it really hard to tell the difference when you're acting like this," Harry said, reaching her and very nearly touching her but not quite.

Pamela thought about what all she was doing and she looked at her plants. They retreated, knowing that they might suffer.

"They obey you but instead of using them for good, you use them to attack anyone, and for what means?" Harry asked her. "Did you see Gotham City?"

Pamela refused to even look outside, because she knew that he was completely right. Gotham City was a mess and she was completely tormented by what she saw. She refused to….she wouldn't look out there.

"The city is beyond repair," Poison Ivy said in a despondent voice. "You saw the monster out there and what lies beneath…..even beyond my babies…..there are things inside this city that would give nightmares to even the most hardened men."

"I know," Harry told her with a smile on his face. "You just got to face it, don't you?"

"Yes, I got to face it," she agreed, taking a step back. Her heart skipped a couple of beats, looking at him. "Just got to face it."

"Yes, you do," Harry agreed with her, and she got up to her feet, placing her arms around him.

"No, no, I can fix it, I can fix it, Gotham City is mine!"

The vines were stirring up once again and Harry decided now was the moment for desperate action. He could hear people breaking into the lower level of the templer.

Poison Ivy was prepared for Harry's next move, shoving her against the wall, and slipping his tongue into her mouth, catching her with a powerful kiss. Their tongues danced together in fiery passion.

Pamela never thought that she would be kissed like this ever again and at first, her inclination was fighting. The poison flowed through her lips but he absorbed it and he was immune from it deadly grip. The woman managed to relax, with his hands roaming her body, cupping her breasts and causing her to offer a light throating moan.

His hands slowly moved down closer to her, causing her to breath heavily the more that he explored her body.

Poison Ivy finally lapsed into a state where she was much more appeased. The plants returned back to a state of dormancy and things were very peaceful.

"Tess, are you there?" Harry asked, getting dressed once again, as a few girls staggered their way to their feet.

"Yes, I'm here," Tess agreed with Harry, she had got a general gist of what was happening and was kind of disappointed she didn't join in on the mission.

"We're bringing in Miss Isley, she suffered from Lazarus exposure, let's see what we can do to help her," Harry said, now that she had been reduced to a more docile state, it would be easier to transport her.

She had been stirred up for so long, but Harry thought that he did a good job in helping her get out some of that pent up frustration. It was a start but they could build on that.

Poison Ivy was now inside a cell, being analyzed by the Luthor Twins, who were like kids at a candy store when they combed her over. They never thought that they would have a chance to study this particular woman up close and personal and they relished the opportunity to study her, up close, and personal and get a close look at the woman in that tube.

"Well, that's an interesting result of the long term effects of the Lazerus pit," one of the twins commented, looking over Poison Ivy with a bit of a critical eye, deciding to make her conclusion. "But, I suppose that it was to be expected."

"Her chemical makeup is always very interesting," another twin commented, with a wide smile on her face. "I mean…..if we can synthesize her cells, we might be able to…..well we might be able to unlock some of the cells."

"I know that Alex….."

"Sometimes you can be blissfully ignorant as the next person, Alex…"

Harry stood at their shoulders, which caused Alex and Alexandria to turn around to give him the damage report.

"Well, as you know, curing her might be a longshot….."

"But…..we're able to create an antidote to negate her charms and her poisons very easily by studying her….."

"Even though most of us are aliens….."

"We aren't though, Alex….so we should really take that antidote….."

"But doesn't she normally charm females…."

"Well, it's quite evident given what we've been able to find through our historical records that Pamela Isley is frankly a fair bit bi-sexual…"

"That's just a rumor, unfounded speculation, you know…"

"I say that it's very founded."

Barbara looked from one twin to the other. She had been given a tour of the Legion headquarters and needless to say, she had been most impressed. Slowly turning to face Harry, her mouth hung halfway open.

"So, are they always like this?"

"No, they're pretty subdued for now, actually," Harry told her and Barbara raised an eyebrow, the smile crossing her face.

"Well I would say that you have an interesting crew….but that's just what happens when you get superheroes together," Barbara commented to Harry and the green eyed wizard looked at her with a smile. "You know super powers…"

"Well you don't need super powers to have your quirks, Miss Gordon," Harry told her and Barbara smiled in agreement.

"So, anyway, we should take the antidote…."

"Then we should be able to approach her and ask her questions….you know without her getting in our panties."

"Yes, and maybe we could seduce her…"

Harry decided to leave the Luthor Twins to their own devices. They were working on the project to free Starfire, so he hoped that they had not forgotten about that in their excitement about having a new villainess to play with.

"Don't worry, we're making good progress on that project," Tess informed Harry, it was almost like she had heard what Harry was thinking. "She should be safe to free, but I'm sure that all of that pent up energy will be something to behold."

"Well, I can't think of anyone who could help her take care of that pent up energy, can you?" Kara asked mockingly, joining Barbara. "It's good to see you again, it really is."

"Yeah, the two of you kind of…..well you disappeared pretty quickly," Barbara said and Zatanna was half listening, so she decided to join in with the fun.

"Well they do that a lot, but they more than make up for it in the end, don't they?" Zatanna asked and Barbara smiled.

"Yes, both of them do," Barbara said, fully aware that she was pinned between Kara and Harry, with both of them standing on either side of her. That was not something that she was unaccustomed to, not in the slightest.

"Well, thanks for thinking so highly of us, Miss Gordon," Kara said with a bright smile which caused Barbara to grow flushed.

"Well, you know….."

"Don't worry, you showed exactly how you felt, but we appreciate that, we really do," Kara said and she slow licked her lips.

They turned away from the Luthor twin show on the other end. Imra turned up, followed by Tinya and Ayla.

"They're still going at it…and not in a good way," Ayla said shaking her head and Imra smiled at her.

"Trust me, it's functional background noise at this point for most of us," Imra told the young Legion female and she sighed. "You'll get used to it, really you will."

"If you say so."

There was a question that Chloe asked when she turned up. "So, what are you going to do with Gotham City?"

That was a good question and Harry pondered it for a few brief seconds.

"I'm going to seal it off and then hide it from the rest of the world, there's really no use of it being there."

"Can't say that I really blame you," Barbara said, the redhead was mostly resigned now.

Gotham City was her home for many years but if it had to be wiped off the map for things to flourish, then so be it.

Harry saw what was happening in the city and his analysis was that it was far worse than he thought it could be.

The deed was done and Gotham City was cut off from the rest of the world. Zatanna and Rachel helped Harry put a very strong magical barrier around it. It was even more strong than the Fidelius Charm.

Harry kicked back and relaxed, after that draining magic that he performed. That was not pleasant, not at all. He kicked back, relaxing a little bit.

It was a long draining night, and it was either a late night or an extremely early morning. He noticed Chloe parking her way next to him, with the blonde watching him, with a slight smile on her face.

"So?" Chloe asked him and Harry looked at her. "It's about time, isn't it?"

Harry smiled at her. "Yes, they said that they were close to getting a break through, when they were done geeking out over Ivy."

"I'm not sure if they would take that as a compliment or an insult that they were geeking out," Chloe said, grinning over the cup of coffee.

"Well if it's from Harry, it's a compliment," Donna said, inviting herself there. "Hi, Harry, it's been way too long."

"Oh, Starfire was your former teammate….."

"Yeah, and I'm looking forward to seeing her again," Donna said with a smile. "And would I pass off a chance to see you again?"

Donna waited for her sister to join her and the Amazon Princess turned to older sister.

"Mother is saying that they're settling in quite nicely, and she'll come to a decision what to do with Circe soon enough," Donna commented with a grin on her face.

Diana could see her younger sister was being spiteful but she would be lying if she didn't have the same amount of spite directed towards Circe. The woman was not high up on her list of people that she was going to feel sorry for. She did assist them in returning her sisters back to life, but it was just as well because she put them there in the first place.

"Well knowing mother, the punishment will fit the crime," Diana said and she gave her a sister a knowing smile. "As you well know."

"I didn't….oh come on like you're so perfect," Donna said, and Kara and Barbara made their way inside.

"She's so adorable when she pouts, isn't she?" Kara asked Barbara and she smiled. Donna crossed her arms and gave them a rather impressive scowl.

"I'm not pouting," she pouted.

"Well, you could have followed us," Tinya said, more girls filed in for a few seconds, but there were a few of them that were sleeping.

Chloe couldn't sleep if she wanted to. Not that she needed to really, but it was something that she grew accustomed to. The giant plant monsters were visiting her in her sleep, haunting her dreams, which kind of agitated her immensely.

"Are you okay?"

"Just having a flash back, don't need to worry about it," Chloe said, waving things off. "So, Gotham is wiped off the map."

"Just in time, because…..well it's just for the best, isn't it?" Barbara asked with a smile. "I saw a few other interesting faces in the cells next to Ivy's."

"The twins collect villainesses for Harry to reform," Kara told Barbara and Barbara raised her eyebrow. "Well, you know, everyone needs a hobby."

"Guess so," Barbara agreed, turning around, shaking her head. "Well, I suppose that they have a use to them. Most of them are smart and beautiful, sinisterly so….."

"It's working out rather well I think," Kara commented to her and there were a few nods of agreement from all sides of the equation.

"Well, if you say so….."

"It's obvious, isn't it?" Donna asked and she wondered if Circe would be drafted. Leaving her alone with the twins would be pure entertainment. They might have to sell tickets for that one.

"Well, it is kind of obvious, I guess," Barbara agreed, it was almost like she wasn't going win that argument at all. She was just going to have to go with the flow and see where said flow brought her.

Speaking of things that gave her a tension headache, no matter how amusing they could have been, the Luthor twins popped up out of nowhere. They did have the tendency to do that, and it was equal parts amusing and equal parts annoying.

"Well, it's finally done…..well we're finally done….."

"We've got it….she's back…..we're going to….."

Tennis match, a really high paced tennis match for sure.

"So all we got to do is just safely transfer her….her body should reform from there."

Harry smiled, it was game time.
