Chapter 2
Wally glared "No, never!" Joker left but came back shortly with a newspaper in hand "If I let you go and you return home what would happen! This man-" he pointed at the picture of Wally's father in the paper "Will do whatever he can to get you back, kill your uncle even. Going back would cause everyone you know pain but if you disappear with me they will think you are dead so there is nothing to fight for, everyone you love would be safe." The joker grins actually stating something reasonable.
Wally turned his head away "No I will not join you, I will go home and protect them myself."
Joker glared "Fine if reason doesn't convince you maybe this will." Joker went over to his "doctors" bag and pulled out a knife. He slid the blade across Wally's cheek drawing a line of blood, Wally moved away from the blade. "I will kill all of your little friends and family except your dad then you can suffer with him."
Wally knew he would kill if he got the chance but he couldn't kill superheroes "You can't kill them, it's impossible. They would lock you in prison!"
Joker laughed "Right...Okay new plan, hmmmm...I GOT IT! Ok this is it-" he jumps in front if Wally getting ready to explain "Because my original plan was to lure Boy Wonder down here, I'm going to use him-" Joker starts maniacally laughing "Him as blackmail to get you to join me. If you still don't or have any second thoughts I get to have my fun with him deal?! Oh I'm so brilliant!"
Wally glared "There is to many flaws it won't w-" before Wally could finish an exact replica of him came out from a dark corner, uh oh, he thought.
"Alright he is an exact clone of you except he only says what I tell him to say, so much better. But anyway, he goes in explains how he got away from me, asks to hang out with Bird Boy lure him down here I capture and torture him until you say yes. This way I get to have fun and get a little helper! Oh and the best part is they will stop looking for you when I kill the clone and leave it to find." Joker laughed hysterically.
Wally went through it in his mind it couldn't work, could it? "It won't work, Robin won't fall for it." He tried once more, then his clone spoke up. "Robin I need to talk to you about you know, my dad. It's private could you meet me later?" Crap, Wally thought, that was convincing.
Joker laughed even more "I saw that little glimmer of hope leave your eyes, you know it's hopeless to fight. Now I will be going to work my plans goodb-" joker was cut of by Wally.
"WAIT, if I say yes will you leave my friends and family out of this!" He pleaded.
"Hmmm..." Joker thought about this "Tell me how this is better."
Wally hated himself for this but had to protect everyone. "Robin has escaped you before, if he does this time it ruins everything. You get nothing, but if you leave him out and accept my offer you get more. You can even leave my clone body out so they stop looking for me, this is much better for you."
Joker thought even more about this he smiled "You got yourself a deal, but if you trick me I bring Boy Wonder down and make you watch everything I do to him. And you have to listen to EVERYTHING I say." Joker left cackling about the fun he will have.
Wally put his head down, what did he just do. Joker came back with a costume, it was white on right side black on the left. "Put it on, try anything funny and I kill Boy Wonder." Wally didn't want to risk his friends safety so did as he was told. It came up to his neck like a skin tight turtle neck, and down to his ankles and wrists. The only thing showing was his hands, feet and head. He got boots to hide his feet , the left boot was white the right black, making his boots alternate colors with the suit. Then the Joker handed him a domino mask, not his style but he put it on anyway, along with alternating gloves.
"You look good in evil!" The Joker smiled delighted with his choice "Now a name hmmm...PERFECT, the Prince of Spades."
Honestly the name wasn't as bad as Wally expected but really. "Really Joker that is so stupid."
Joker glared "We could always get Bird Boys opinion." Wally sighed guess the names staying, at least he didn't have a stupid hat. As Wally was walking away Joker put a hat with little cotton balls on the end on his head. Wally sighed, spoke too soon.
Wally yanked it off his head "OH NO I will KILL MYSELF before you put a hat this stupid on me!" Joker sighed "Fine." He grumbled. "You looked stupid anyway!" The Joker stuck his tongue at Wally.
Joker looked at Wally carefully. "The costume changes your appearance but your hair...nope we will have to color it." Wally looked at him slightly surprised, he was hoping he could use that to his advantage in some way to help him escape this, but now he wouldn't look anything like himself. Joker pulled out some strange looking hairspray
"This is my own formula of hairspray, it can color your hair for 6 months at a time without coming out but then you have to reapply it." He cackles. "Brilliant creation isn't it?! This will make your hair brown, and completely unnoticeable!" Wally groaned as the strange stuff was sprayed into his hair, it smelled horrible but by the end of it he looked like a natural Brunette with green eyes. It was then Wally finally realized how permanent this arrangement could be. "Your voice I can leave you will look different enough they will think it was a mere coincidence,"
Joker finished and pushed Wally flat on the wall and put Wally's clone hooked up on the table he had been in just moments ago. "Now Wally this is where I murder you so they don't come find you, then I will discard the body leaving it for them to find. And for the fun of it I put it on a two way chat so you can hear the screams from your teammates when you die. And remember not one word or they die then we would have a delightful massacre." Wally was just glad it was the clone dying and not him, but he was not looking forward to watching himself die, it was...wrong. He watched as Joker set up the the two way messaging and began the show.
They had searched all night they had all finally met up at the cave, in about an hour the sun would come up. Robin saw the video chat button flashing, "Guys it's another message!" Once again everyone crowded around the computer including Flash and Batman, who had just arrived after searching.
Joker appeared on screen "Hello Ladies and Gentleman! Welcome oh I see Flash and Batman are there oh goodie!"
Batman like always got down to business "What do you want Joker?"
The Joker grinned "Well I thought you would like a trade, Bird Boy for Flash Boy!" He stepped out of the way revealing a beat up clone Kid Flash, but they didn't know it.
"Ugh d-don't do it!" Fake Wally moaned
"Shut up your ruining it!" Joker screamed and pulled out a gun shooting "Kid Flash" in the leg. The clone was very convincing, it screamed in pain making shivers go up everyone's spine.
Flash just tried keeping cool so nothing bad would happen.
"No." Batman said to the Joker calmly.
"I want to have my fun with him so if I don't, I guess I can watch him suffer through losing a friend." Joker loaded the gun and shot "Kid Flash" right in the chest.
"WALLY!" Flash screamed, "Kid Flash" started coughing up blood. He looked right up at the camera as of to say goodbye, the life left his eyes and his head drooped to the side as he died.
Joker laughed manically "That was fun!" And turned off the camera.
Flash looked ready to kill, Batman was shocked he never expected Joker to do that. He liked to play with his victims first, not just kill them. But he kept his calm face, he looked over the team they all had looks of sadness or anger. (Except M'gann who was full out crying into Conner)
Flash got up and took a deep breath Batman looked over at him "Calm down, do not resort to violence it's what he wants." He put his hand on Flash's shoulder.
Flash pulled away "DO NOT TELL ME TO CALM DOWN, My nephew who was practically my son was just shot to death. If it was Robin you would be out to kill." Flash growled and looked away shaking his head.
Batman knew he was right, but he couldn't lose it in front of the team. Batman sighed "Everyone go home, you will all need to rest."
Artemis spoke up "How are any of us going to sleep when a teammate was killed right front of us."
Batman sighed again "Black Canary will come in to help everyo-" he was cut off by Robin.
"Batman, Black Canary can't fix this one. Something's up and I'm going to figure it out." Batman knew Robin was right about both things, therapy probably wouldn't work and something was different about all this. Everyone went off to cope or figure something out.
Batman was leaving when he looked to see Flash sitting in a chair looking at the floor. "Flash I'm not trying to get your hopes up but something is wrong with this whole picture. Don't give up so quickly." Flash nodded and left to tell Iris.
