Lady Shiva was walking through a dark corridor, her heels clicking with each step. She eventually saw a light before entering it. It was bright enough to make her have to shield her eyes before she saw what was on the other side.
Gotham City, full moon shining, police sirens wailing, people screaming, gunshots blasting, and mobsters everywhere.
"So this is Two-Face's mental fortress. A crime-infested Gotham. Ra's would love for Gotham to look EXACTLY like this to justify his actions. Hm, can't wait to tell Bruce how much our city looks like Metropolis compared to Two-Face's vision of the city.
Shiva then bent back to avoid a gunshot. She glanced over to see a random crook trying to shoot her. She dodged all of the bullets before appearing in front of the crook and stabbing her hand into the man's gut, destroying his liver. She yanked her hand out, and the man fell to the ground, dead.
"Wait one moment. That's one of the gangsters Harvey Dent had sent away when he was still a district attorney."
Shiva then heard a helicopter and looked up, seeing the vehicle fly toward her. It hovered above her as the door opened. Then, a man in what looked like a burnt suit appeared, his face hidden by the shadows. Then, a man whose entire face was horribly scarred appeared, laughing maniacally.
"Two-Face. Or is it just Face? Better yet, your original name, Big Bad Harv."
"Guess introductions aren't needed! Welcome to MY Gotham, Mrs. Wayne! Don't get bored of it! Once your husband is done messing with my face, I'm going to kill him and make sure ALL of Gotham looks just like this until I'm one hundred fucking years old!"
Shiva giggled. "Don't you sound confident?"
"Where the hell are my manners?! I didn't send in the welcoming party for you, Mrs. Wayne!" As soon as Big Bad said that, five cars skidded to a halt in front of Shiva, armed gangsters getting out and pointing guns at Shiva. It ranged from mafioso who Harvey put away to some of Two-Face's own lieutenants. She even saw some she knew who worked for Black Mask. "Make the beautiful dame feel welcomed, boys!" Big Bad then went back into the helicopter as it flew away.
Shiva watched it fly toward one of the tallest buildings in the city before she kicked up the gun of her first attacker and aimed it. "Try to make this at least a BIT entertaining."
The gangsters fired at Shiva, but all of their shots missed without her SEEMINGLY moving a muscle. In actuality, Shiva just slightly moved. Bending back her shoulder, tilting her head, repositioning her leg; all those small movements made it seem like the gangsters were just horrible shots.
Shiva, on the other hand, was a perfect shot. Her first bullet went down the barrel of one of the shooters, making the gun blow up in the guy's face. The other shot was a perfect headshot. Shiva saw that one of the gangsters was about to throw a grenade, so she shot it, blowing up at least three cars.
Shiva heard one of the cars revving up and looked to see it speeding toward her.
Timing it just right, Shiva jumped and ran across the car, shooting one of the back wheels before she landed. The car sped out of control before crashing and exploding into a building.
The other car also revved up, Shiva looking to see if she needed to jump out of its way. She did and looked to see it drift around before preparing to charge again. Shiva aimed her gun, brushed a single hair out of her face, and fired.
Perfect headshot.
The car swerved before flipping over, bouncing over the unwavering Shiva before crashing and burning into the pile of other cars.
Shiva heard the revving of multiple cars, looking to see an entire armada's worth of cars speeding toward her.
Shiva checked the magazine of her gun to see it only had a few bullets left, tossing the handgun away before picking up one of the dropped submachine guns of the gangsters she "killed". She then looked ready to fight before a pure white car pulled up in front of her, the passenger side swinging open.
"JUMP IN!"
"Harvey Dent?"
"NO TIME! GET IN!"
Shiva immediately got into the car, slamming her door shut before Harvey peeled off, gangster cars chasing after them.
Harvey was speeding through the city, the cars still following them despite Harvey's skills behind the wheel.
"Do you mind," Shiva said as she held up the gun.
"By all means," Harvey said.
Shiva rolled down the window, leaned out, and fired.
Her shots weren't wild at all. They were well-aimed and calculated, the bullets hitting the wheels of the car. The car began to swerve before it flipped over, causing a crash blocking the road.
"Hmph," Shiva said with a smirk as she sat back down and blew the smoke off of her gun's muzzle.
"Wow. No wonder Bruce fell for you," Harvey said with wide eyes.
"Careful, Mr. Dent. Remember that I'm married," Shiva said with a teasing glance. "What would Grace think?"
Harvey looked down before looking back at the road. "Grace. . . It's been years, Sandra. I all but abandoned her after I became Two-Face. One of the very few things we ABSOLUTELY agreed on together. I pray to God even now that she found someone to take care of her."
"She hasn't."
"What?"
"Bruce and I. . . we found her. She's been alone all this time. When I asked her why she never moved on, she told me that it was because she couldn't replace the man she loved. In this entire world, there is only one Harvey Dent."
Shiva heard sniffling and looked to see Harvey crying as he drove. He then pulled into a building's parking garage and began to break down. "Grace," he went softly.
". . . She broke down in tears and hugged me when I told her we could cure you and that we could put an end to Two-Face once and for all. She promised that the moment she saw you... she wouldn't wait this time. This time SHE'S going to do the proposing and make sure nothing will stop her from becoming Grace Dent. I AM going to save you, Harvey. When this is over, you can be with Grace again."
Harvey sobbed silently, hiccupping a few times, but tried his best to keep his composure. Still, even through the tears, there was one thing he absolutely had to say to the beautiful assassin.
"Thank you."
Harvey drove past gangsters, petty criminals, and corrupt cops, all of them committing the crimes they did. Robbery, murder, extortion, bribery, rape; every crime possible was being done in Big Bad's Gotham, but it stopped the moment the car entered a tunnel. When they exited, they entered clean, quiet, well-kept Gotham. No litter, no crimes, not even so much as a jaywalker.
"This is your Gotham, isn't it," Shiva asked.
"My half, anyway. But Big Bad's been trying to take it over for years. Now that you're trying to cure me, he's been trying even-"
An explosion occurred, and Harvey and Shiva looked back to see the tunnel had been destroyed. Then, waves of criminals flooded the streets, attacking the innocent civilians Harvey remembers saving. Good men were being beaten, honest cops were being murdered, and women were being forced upon.
"No. Damnit! If Big Bad takes total control, it's over. All he needs to do is put a bullet in me and it's over."
"The same logic goes for him, Harvey."
"Lady Shiva, I know you're powerful. I tried to prosecute you when I was still just Harvey Dent, and even I was terrified by your influence. Still, not even you can go into Big Bad's turf and take him out on your own."
"On my own? You're not talking about yourself, are you, Harvey?"
Harvey took a deep breath before his eyes were filled with determination. "No." He then sped down a street.
As Harvey's Gotham became darker and more corrupt, Harvey sped and drifted to a halt in front of the courthouse. He and Shiva got out.
She stared up at the building. "The Judge."
"You know?"
"I read a report about him. Your third personality. He was a ruthless vigilante who nearly killed Penguin and Killer Croc. He even nearly killed Batman himself."
"He also nearly killed me, not even knowing we shared the same body. After Batman stopped The Judge, we were stuck together in Arkham. The three of us. The Judge held us for the longest time until Big Bad somehow sealed him away."
"Harvey, are you sure you want to unleash him," Shiva asked. "There is a good chance that even if he does kill Big Bad, he'll take over your body completely. He might even try and kill you."
Harvey looked down before he took a deep breath. "Honestly, Shiva, it might be best for Judge to take over. He'd be able to stop monsters like Big Bad once and for-"
"No."
"Huh?"
"The Judge has his uses, yes... but Gotham needs Harvey Dent. It needs YOU, not The Judge. I'll keep you safe from him, even if I have to kill him myself."
Harvey stared at Shiva. "He might try to kill you before anyone else. Your crimes are not recorded, yes, but they're still known by me. If he finds you guilty-"
"Then I'll have to fight him and lead him to Big Bad. If I have to deal with both of them at once, so be it."
Harvey then looked up at the courthouse. "Then let's inform The Judge of the next court date." The duo then entered the courthouse.
Within the building wasn't a standard courthouse, but a vault. Heavy duty, locks, chains, and guards. But not just any guards.
"Is that... Batman and Catwoman," Harvey asked.
"YOU'RE AN IDIOT, DENT!" He and Shiva looked up to see a screen appear, Big Bad's horribly burnt face appearing on the screen. "DID YOU REALLY THINK I WOULD IMPRISON THAT BASTARD AND NOT HAVE THE BEST GUARDS AVAILABLE TO MAKE SURE HE NEVER GOT OUT?! AND WHAT KIND OF IDIOT TRIES TO UNLEASH THAT LUNATIC ANYWAY?! DO I NEED TO REMIND YOU HE TRIED TO KILL US?!"
"After everything you've done, Bad, it only makes sense! We've committed countless atrocities that should have given us the death sentence countless times, with only our insanity preventing justice from prevailing!"
"YOU UNGRATEFUL LITTLE PISSANT! YOU SHOULD BE GLAD WE'RE STILL ALIVE!"
"NOT AFTER EVERYTHING YOU'VE MADE US DO! COURT WILL SOON BE IN SESSION, BAD! AND I'M SURE THE JUDGE WILL HAVE PLENTY TO SAY TO YOU!"
Bad chuckled. "Good luck, Dent. I've got the best damn guards our mind has to offer. I went through hell to make the Cat and the Bat guard this place. The only reason it was able to do the Bat is because I was able to remember the beatdown Judge gave him. The Cat? Good ol' fashioned mental bribery. ALRIGHT, YOU TWO, DO YOUR FUCKING JOBS!" The screen then went away.
Batman and Catwoman walked forward. Batman was cracking his knuckles while Catwoman was cracking her whip.
Harvey stepped back, understandably afraid of the duo walking toward him.
"Harvey, deal with the vault," Shiva said as she stepped forward.
"What?! Lady Shiva, that's Batman and Catwoman!"
"And? I have trained both of them at one point, fought them at many points, and defeated them in most of them. Now, if you want to help me, go and unlock that vault."
Harvey stared at Shiva before looking at the vault behind the hero and anti-hero. He then gritted his teeth. "Please survive this." He then ran around the room to reach the vault.
Batman threw a Batarang at Harvey, but it was shot out of the air. Batman looked to see it spinning midair before another shot was heard, but the bullet hit the Batarang from behind. The Batarang spun down and was caught by Lady Shiva, her gun in hand. "I intend to."
Catwoman looked to see that Harvey had reached the vault, already trying to unlock it. She had to backflip to avoid Shiva's gunfire. Catwoman looked up with a glare at Shiva.
"You're going to have to deal with me before going after him. Fortunately for you, this is out of bullets. Unfortunately for you," Shiva began as she squeezed the gun. She then showed off awesome, virtually superhuman strength by destroying the gun with her grip strength alone. "That doesn't make this fight any easier for you."
Catwoman readied her claws while Batman took his stance, Batarangs in each hand. Shiva then took her stance, Batarang in her hand. A few moments passed, all three opponents stood perfectly still.
Then, they charged at each other, the two-on-one fight underway.
Harvey was crying as he was solving the locks to the vault. "Damn you, Bad," he sobbed.
HOW OFTEN DID HARVEY DENT'S FATHER BEAT HIM?
WHEN WAS THE NIGHT DENT'S FATHER SMACKED HIS MOTHER SO HARD SHE NEVER WOKE UP AGAIN?
HOW MANY CASES DID DENT LOSE, RESULTING IN INNOCENT DEATHS?
HOW MANY CASES DID HE WIN, RESULTING IN INNOCENT DEATHS?
WHEN WAS THE DAY DENT PROPOSED TO GRACE?
WHEN WAS HARVEY DENT GOING TO MARRY GRACE?
WHAT NAME DID HARVEY WANT TO GIVE HIS AND GRACE'S CHILD?
All of the questions were designed to hurt Harvey. To torture him. Make it harder and harder for him to try and open the vault, using his past sins and failures as answers to the codes and questions.
Meanwhile, Shiva was fighting Batman, using her one Batarang to parry Batman's two. She was able to parry Batman at just the right moment to make him stumble, giving her the chance to grab him and use him as a human shield.
Catwoman's whip wrapped around Batman's neck instead of Shiva's, the beauty readying the sharp edge of the Batarang. "Yuánliàng wǒ, wǒ de àirén." (Forgive me, my love.)
Shiva then stabbed the Batarang up Batman's exposed chin, and the hero went limp blood spewed out of his wound before falling dead to the ground.
Shiva watched as the whip loosened from Batman's neck and was brought back to Catwoman. "No reaction. Seems Big Bad doesn't know you well, Catwoman. The real you would have been screaming in anguish with tears rushing down your face. Not that I have room to talk. I'm not ashamed to admit this... I would have had the same reaction if I saw my husband murdered in such a way before me."
Shiva's eyes then widened before she jumped back, avoiding Batman's sweep kick. However, since she was in midair, she couldn't avoid Batman's grappling gun, the sharp hook piercing her lower abdomen. Shiva grimaced in pain before she was slammed to the ground.
'Should have expected that,' Shiva thought as she yanked the hook out of her. 'Whenever Two-Face fought Bruce, Batman must have seemed untouchable, if not invincible.' She looked to see Batman and Catwoman walking toward her, while she stood back to her feet. She groaned as she looked at the bleeding wound on her gut.
She then closed her eyes and took a deep breath. 'This is within the mind. This is not my physical body. And even if it was... this isn't enough to hurt me,' she thought with a smirk as she opened her eyes, with the pain gone. In fact, there was no sign of her being damaged at all.
She then took her stance, ready for round two.
However, the sound of an unlocking vault was heard. The three adversaries looked to see the massive vault open.
Then, from the darkness, two loud pounds of a gavel.
"Court is now in session," went a deep and commanding voice.
The next moment... The Judge walked out of the darkness.
The Judge walked out of the vault, reaching into the sleeve of his robe. He then pulled out his double-edged sword and pointed it at Batman. "Batman, the court has records of the day you stood in the path of justice. The Judge holds you in contempt!" He then pointed the sword at Catwoman. "Selina Kyle, more commonly known as the thief, Catwoman. The court finds you guilty of petty theft, grand theft, breaking and entering, espionage, and even murder. The Court finds you guilty of these crimes."
He then pointed his sword at Lady Shiva. "Sandra Wu-San, more famously known as Lady Shiva. Your crimes are innumerable. Many cases against you involve espionage, weapons trafficking, drug pedaling, and countless acts of murder. The court finds you guilty of these crimes."
"Permission to speak freely, your honor," Shiva fearlessly said.
"Hm, such manners shown before the Judge are few and far between. The court gives Sandra Wu-San the stand."
"First, I would like my profile to be updated, Your Honor. I have recently been wed. Please allow the record to address me as Sandra Wu-San Wayne."
"Let the record show that the accused is Madame Sandra Wu-San Wayne."
"Thank you, Your Honor. I will reveal to the court that all of my crimes are truthfully revealed by Your Honor. However, though deserving of the death penalty I am, I have more use to the community as a community servant. It is through my actions that Your Honor has been released to disperse justice."
"Your Honor."
"The court acknowledges Prosecutor Harvey Dent."
"Let the record show that Prosecutor Harvey Dent is currently Madame Sandra Wu-San's lawyer."
"Acknowledged."
"Your Honor, Madame Sandra indeed committed many crimes, but since the time you've been gone, she has done just as much good. Her actions have greatly rehabilitated a former criminal, who is now using his brilliance to bring about peace and order to Gotham. I appeal to the court to allow Madame Sandra to continue her community service instead of sentencing her and allowing her talents to go to waste."
"The court hears your pleas and offer, Counsel Dent. As such, the court-"
Lady Shiva then ducked to avoid Catwoman's whip.
As soon as Catwoman brought it back, The Judge appeared right in front of her, holding the gavel that nearly killed Killer Croc. He slammed the gavel down with such force that it caused the entire courthouse to shake. Catwoman's hand twitched before it fell to the ground, the anti-hero fading away.
"Disturbing the court, let alone acts of aggravated assault with the intent of murder, is punishable by instant execution."
Batman appeared next to Judge, throwing a punch.
Even faster than the blink of an eye, Judge was behind Batman, his sword outswung.
Moments passed, neither one moving. Then, Batman's torso slid off, the hero's body fading away.
"Assaulting The Judge in any form of aggression holds the same verdict. The court is adjourned."
"A moment, Your Honor," Harvey went.
"The stand goes to Harvey Dent."
"We need the Court's assistance. Big Bad has been in control far too long."
"Big Bad Dent has indeed evaded the Law for far too long. His crimes are numerous. Extortion, unlawful demolition, espionage, and murder. As the leader of one of Gotham's most powerful crime syndicates, the Court sentences Big Bad Dent to legal execution."
"Permission to speak, Your Honor?"
"The stand goes to Madame Sandra Wu-San Wayne."
"We request permission to attend the execution. We must witness Big Bad's death with our own eyes. His death MUST be verified and witnessed."
"Hm. . . Very well. The Court grants special permission to Madame Sandra Wu-San Wayne and Counsel Harvey Dent to witness the now public execution of Big Bad Dent."
The Judge then began to grow in size, seemingly about to shatter the courthouse they were in. Still, Shiva and Harvey looked at the colossal personality with fearless eyes as his massive hand reached toward them.
"The execution will take place immediately."
Big Bad Harv was looking down at his kingdom, standing in his office in the tallest building in all of Gotham. Not even Wayne Tower matched it. He watched as crime became rampant and uncontrollable. Still, he didn't care. In the end, he was the boss of bosses. The ruler of Gotham. Everything he could see belonged to him. He then chuckled darkly. "I was wondering when you'd show up."
"Big Bad Harv, your crimes are innumerable," The Judge said. "The court has sentenced you to public execution."
Big Bad then shot at Judge, but he easily blocked the bullet with his sword. "Assaulting The Judge only adds to your sentence."
Big Bad chuckled. "You know, I don't know who I should thank more: that pathetic wimp, Dent; or our very own, very lovely Lady Shiva."
"What are you on about, Bad," Dent asked.
"What do you think, Dent? YOU released The Judge. You let out the one thing that might have been able to stop me, just so I could kill him and be done with him forever. And you, Shiva? Oh, I think you deserve even more praise."
"Do I," Shiva asked with a raised eyebrow.
"LOOK AROUND YOU, SWEETHEART! NEVER BEFORE HAD I GAINED SO MUCH DAMN CONTROL OVER THIS JOINT! DENT'S MIND IS ALMOST COMPLETELY MY TURF! IN FRONT OF ME ARE THE LAST TWO MOOKS WITH STAKES IN THE GAME! THE LAST TWO OWNERS OF THE LAST BIT OF REAL ESTATE! KILL THEM, AND I WIN!" He then took a breath to calm himself. "Kill them, and I win. I'll have a shiny new face, a body all to myself, and a criminal empire just waiting to be unleashed! And by bringing these two, once I'm rid of them, there will be NOTHING standing in my way ever again! You have no IDEA how much Dent has been forcing me to hold back! But once he's gone, not even Batman will be able to stop me."
"The Court has heard enough," Judge boomed. "Big bad Harv, I sentence you to death by public execution," he said as he raised his sword. "Court is adjourned."
BANG.
At that moment, the Judge, who was somehow in the middle of the room, slid back, his sword holding a smoking bullet before it slid off. "Impossible."
Bad chuckled. It started slow before it escalated into a full-on cackle. "YOU IDIOT! DID YOU THINK I WAS AFRAID OF YOU?!" He then sighed in satisfaction. "I've never been more powerful than I am now. Someone's gonna die, Judge, and it sure is hell isn't going to be me," he said as he pointed his gun at The Judge.
"Alright, Judge. Time for your trial... with The King."
Big Bad took out a second gun and shot at Judge, who was blocking most of the bullets until he was hit in the left shoulder, right thigh, lower right abdomen, and left calf. It brought him to his knees.
Big Bad chuckled. "You've been away far too long, Judge. I might as well be God now."
Shiva was about to charge when she heard guns being pointed at her, glaring to see gangsters surrounding her and Harvey.
"Ah-ah-ah, no interruptions, mooncake. I plan on taking my time with you, beautiful, but I wanna torment these fucks before getting to you," Bad said as he walked over to Judge and kicked him in the face, making him fall to the ground.
He then proceeded to stomp him. "YA THOUGHT YOU COULD BEAT ME?! THAT YOU COULD KILL ME?! THIS IS MY TOWN, BITCH! MY MIND! I RULED LONG BEFORE YOU WERE EVEN A DAMNED THOUGHT! THIS MIND IS MINE! THIS BODY IS MINE! GOTHAM! IS! MINE! AND NO ONE CAN STOP THAT!"
Shiva glared at Bad before looking at Harvey. "Is that true, Dent?"
"Huh?"
"Does this mind belong to Bad? Are you really going to just let that lunatic take over YOUR body? Are you just going to stand there and let him win?"
"Sandra. . . What am I supposed to do? We have guns at our heads."
"You heard Bad. He's practically God in here. If he's God, what are you?"
Harvey looked down before he closed his eyes, taking a deep and opening his eyes, now burning with determination.
As Bad was cackling while stomping on Judge, his wild eyes somehow widened in surprise when he heard a helicopter, and his office illuminated with light. "WHAT THE HELL," he went as he looked behind him to see a police helicopter. "WHAT ARE YOU IDIOTS DOING!? I DIDN'T CALL FOR A DAMN BIRD!"
"GOTHAM PD! BIG BAD HARV, YOU ARE UNDER ARREST!"
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU ON ABOUT?! THERE'S NO POLICE IN MY-" Realization then dawned on him as he snarled and pointed his gun toward the culprit. "DEEEENT!"
"GET DOWN," Harvey said to Shiva, both falling to the floor as the room was flooded with bullets. All of the gangsters were riddled with bullets, blood spewing everywhere as they all faded away. When the bullets ceased, Harvey and Shiva looked up to see a bloody Big Bad covered in blood and bullet holes.
Bad coughed up blood before roaring in anger and pointing his gun at the helicopter. When he shot it, it exploded and fell to the ground. "Is that... all you got," Bad gargled out.
"No way," Harvey said as Bad stumbled toward him and Shiva.
"Did you... forget. I'm... FUCKING. . . GOD! YOU CAN'T... KILL ME," he roared as he stumbled toward Harvey. "I'm... gonna... kill you, Dent," he said as he pointed his gun at Harvey. "This... body's... mine. I'll... kill... everyone. This city's... MINE!"
SPLATTER
Bad's eyes widened when he saw a bloody blade in front of him. He looked down to see that he had been impaled. "No. NOOOO!"
"Court is adjourned," Judge said.
Bad grabbed the blade, preventing Judge from yanking it out. "LIKE HELL IT IS," Bad roared before aiming his gun over his shoulder, right where Judge's head is.
BANG-BANG-BANG!
All three shots hit Judge's head point blank, blood spewing everywhere.
"I ain't dying, Judge. YOU are!"
"The Court... finds this... unacceptable," Judge said as he took out his cuffs and placed them on his and Bad's wrists, magnetizing them together before stepping back.
"W-WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Bad looked back, his red face seemingly losing color. "No. No, NO, NOO! STOP, YOU IDIOT," he screamed desperately as he continuously shot Judge's head as they were walking toward the shattered window. "YOU'LL KILL YOURSELF, TOO!"
"The Court... finds that. . . acceptable," Judge struggled to say as he plunged the sword deeper into Bad.
"NOOO!" He then looked at Harvey and pointed his gun. "I'LL BRING YOU WITH US, DENT!"
BANG!
Bad looked to see his gun fall out the broken window, his eyes wide in horror, before looking to see Shiva pointing a smoking gun from one of his killed goons. "YOU HIGH YELLOW CHINESE WHORE," he screamed in both rage and desperation.
"District Attorney Harvey Dent. . . the Court acquits you of all your crimes. Reign well, and allow justice to prevail."
"Thank you, Your Honor. I... will never forget you," Harvey said as he saluted the now heroic personality.
Judge nodded before jumping out of the building, Big Bad Harv screaming as he fell to his death.
The moment Bad and Judge hit the pavement, an explosion occurred.
The criminals and citizens saw the light rushing toward them, the criminals screaming as it engulfed them.
When the light was gone... so was the dark Gotham Big Bad had created.
It was... beautiful. Lights illuminated the city, no signs of litter to be seen, no police sirens blaring, and no gunshots to be heard. On the streets were just normal, law-abiding citizens. People enjoy the nightlife, going to bars, leaving movie theaters, or leaving office buildings. People were shopping, eating, and laughing; no signs of fear in anyone.
It was Harvey Dent's ideal Gotham.
Harvey stood at the shattered window, looking down at his ideal Gotham. "It... It's over. Harv's rage. His anger. His hatred. I can't feel any of it. He's gone. He's finally gone," Harvey said as he looked at the full moon, tears falling down his face.
"The story of Big Bad Harv is finally at an end." Harvey looked at Shiva as she walked up next to him, looking up at the moon. "Now, your story can continue, Harvey. The Judge may have acquitted you of your crimes, but that won't be as easy in the real world."
"I know. I'm probably going to have to start from the ground up. . . Worth it. If Victor can remake his life, I can too. I swear to you, Lady Sh... Madame Wayne, I'll redeem myself. I'll be the White Knight people look up to again. I may have lived long enough to see myself become the villain, but I plan on dying a hero. I WILL help make Gotham one of the greatest cities the world has ever seen.
Sandra smiled. "I'll hold you to that. If you become a second Big Bad, I'm coming after you."
"Wouldn't have it any other way," Harvey said with a smile.
Sandra then began to glow. She then became ethereal, seemingly made out of light as she flew out of the building, floating above Harvey as she looked down at him with a smile. She then flew up toward the moon and vanished into the light.
Harvey smiled. "You married a freakin' angel, Bruce."
A flash of light occurred.
Harvey groaned as he opened his eyes, seeing a white ceiling.
"Welcome back." Harvey looked to see Mr. Terrific in a doctor's coat, smiling at him. Harvey looked around to see Victor, Bruce, and Sandra smiling at him as well.
Mr. Terrific then handed Harvey a mirror, who took it and looked.
His eyes widened as tears went down his cheeks. "I-It's my face," he said as he traced a finger down his formerly scared side, seeing his finger was fixed, too.
He wasn't hallucinating. It really was his face. He could feel it. This wasn't a dream.
"It's MY face." He then smiled as his tears fell freely. "It's finally over."
"Harvey?"
His eyes widened as he looked up to see the owner of that angelic voice, seeing the most beautiful woman that had ever been in his life. Harvey smiled, tears of joy now flowing. "Grace."
She immediately dropped the bouquet of roses she brought, ran over, and hugged Harvey, both of them crying loudly as they hugged the love of their lives again after all these years.
"Thank you," Harvey choked out.
