CHAPTER 4.
Poison Ivy emerged from the darkness, emerging with a dress of plants that covered her from the neck to the ankles. He even wore a crown of plants with the letter S in the center. Dick and Tim grabbed their weapons, Dick his electric batons and Tim his fighting rod.
"Thank you for coming," Ivy said in her usual sensual tone.
"But how are you here? We thought you were in Arkham," said Dick.
"Apparently, being away from Batman decreased your intelligence, child."
"Seriously, how did you do it?" Said Tim.
"I'm full of surprises. During my time at Arkham, since I was in a cell that no one was watching because it was sealed, I was making contact with the plants throughout the City, but I concentrated on a level never before seen, and a voice spoke to me. I asked him who he was, and he told me that he wanted to have a guest, someone to feed him. So I managed to talk to him and tell him I would have it soon. Now I am grateful that this plant spoke to me. When I had it in my hands, I contacted her, she told me she wanted to make her guest happy, and I told her that I would have to wait a little longer for her guest. I never thought I could beat Batman so easily, with this plant I've only seen him smile like that, something never seen before. He must be very happy with that plant."
"Hera!"
Wonder Woman came through the door and was flying at full speed toward Ivy, but was stopped by a giant green tentacle that entangled itself around her, leaving her with no escape. Dick and Tim tried to help Diana, but were also stopped by green tentacles that enveloped them, trapping them and leaving them in a bad situation.
"They say that women are intelligent, but I guess that does not apply to you. You will not be able to escape, because I made them like steel."
Diana tried to fight to break free, or at least release a hand and reach her communicator to call Kal or other members of the League.
"What did you do to Batman?" Wonder Woman asked with a very angry face.
"I made him happy." Ivy continued. "Do you not see? He looks very happy. But now I'm going to tell you how I did this. I already told them that I contacted the plant and detected it, it was off the planet, so I assumed it would be from the League. When I communicated with her, I started creating duplicates of mine that worked temporarily. After a long time I succeeded. After cheating these criminals of Arkham's nature, I contacted other plants to find out where employees were transported or traveling to their spaceship. After finding that place, I sprayed employees to explore their ship and find the plant. They brought it to me once they found it, but the League did not detect anything because my potions only worked half an hour and I knew that other of my comrades had been fighting with the League and my servants in their ship had disabled their alarm system. By the way, while I was hiding, I created these plants to make sure I had a great plan prepared for Batman. He fell so easy when I threw the plant, and now you too will die. Curious, defeating Batman was my greatest wish, but if I eliminate you first, my desire to fill this city with my plants will come true."
Diana took advantage of her explanation to free herself and ran to Dick and Tim to free them, and fortunately did so quickly. Ivy stayed still, she did not even flinch. Now Diana was again flying at full speed against Ivy.
Diana was hit by a fist so strong that she was sent flying through the warehouse wall. Dick and Tim did not move, they could not believe this happened. Diana quickly got up and went back inside to see Kal in a position of authority in front of her, glaring at Diana, Dick and Tim.
"You did not let me finish," Ivy said. "I might have opened Batman's belt and I found the bright green rock. The plants spoke to me and told me it was the biggest weakness of this alien, I had to synthesize a strong potion in three days, and now I have him under my control. Dear Superman."
"Yes, my queen," Kal said with a big smile."What do you want me to do?"
"Kill them".
