"Well, hello there Jack! How are you enjoying my hospitality?!" Asks as charming English accented voice as a tall well built muscular man with red eyes, a suave haircut, red skin, and large draconic wings.

"Lu-lucifer, we have a deal!" Jack Napier shouts as he rings up a quintessential Karen's groceries at the grocery checkout, while she screams in his ear while in the news The Joker and Batman work together to fight crime.

"No we had a deal, which you violated by pissing off my little cousin…"

"How? I don't even know your cousin!" The Joker screams.

"Not surprising he is very new, fresh from the higher plane, and a member of the Greek pantheon…anyways you got on his bad side by leaving his soulmate in a rather horrid state." Lucifer hums and suddenly he's right in front of the man who was, is and will never be again, The Joker.

"Who?" Jack (Joker) asks.

"Doesn't matter now…he requested your soul be destroyed…even Ra's lowered himself to his knees in front of me to see the bargain he struck with my little cousin completed, granted if he knew his powers he could have done it himself…anyways goodbye Jack, may the Joker cease to exist from Earth 16 dimensions until the end and beyond." Lucifer smirks as black hell fire consumes Jack Napier, Jack Oswald White, The Joker's soul completely.

"By Dear old Dead Dad, and Me, that felt good…" Lucifer sighs feeling relieved at finally being able to fully dispatch the taint that is The Joker from at least one Earth Reality.

'I think I'll pay my little cousin a visit…sometime soon.'

I wake up to the feeling of someone holding my right hand in a firm but gentle grasp, while gentle fingers slide through my hair.

'Harley…no…she'd have my head on her tits.' and sadly my head is on a normal pillow.

Slowly opening my eyes I see M'Gann half laying on a hospital bed while floating in the air next to me, her eyes closed her breathing even.

"She's really cute when she's asleep." I murmur and hear a soft cough/chuckle from a dark corner of the room, one that I recognize easily, turning my head, I glare at my older brother who is in uniform and smirking at me.

'Wow, I really accepted him as my older brother…as my family…when did that even happen?' I wonder as I stare at Bruce I can see the worry, guilt and something else in his body language.

"Careful, Diana might charge back in here and demand your praise too." Bruce teases me, making me roll my eyes and crack a smile besides myself.

"The girl…she's dead because of me isn't she? If I hadn't tried treating this world like it was make believe and just shot that fuck face in the head like he deserved…"

"She did die…but it's not your fault…" Bruce tries to console me as he walks over and rests his hand against my ankle.

"We're not Judges, Angel…we don't choose the punishment nor do we dish it out…killing is a last resort…and all avenues should be expensed before even considering it."

"Bullshit Br-Batman, if he was some bank robber that had never killed someone I'd be inclined to agree, but Condiment King used weapons meant to inflict maximum pain, carnage…and fatality, without qualms…he should be executed, either by chair, firing squad or hero, I care not." I grumble Bruce's hand on my ankle grows a bit firmer before releasing it.

"You have been put under mandatory house arrest for four weeks, and that is seven days a week, you scheduled meetings with Black Canary three times a week…" Bruce grumbles and heads for the door and pauses just as the door slides open.

"Harley is desperate to see you…you should at least call her…even though you're both taking a break from one another…don't make my mistakes." Bruce mutters and then disappears, into the shadows of the hallway like a ninja.

'I wonder if the Turtles are in this universe I know the Scooby gang are supposed to be and not those knock off ones from that episode after the whole Reach thing in New York with the off brand gang, but Scooby-Doo WrestleMania showed the girls of The Team hanging out and watching it on payperview.'

The urge to go after and tell Bruce about Selena's pregnancy is almost to much to resist, 'I know you'd make a good father Bruce…damn all those comic nerds and fetishized comic writers, that try to project you as en emotionless machine who only has a mission…a mission to save a city and it's people that don't want to be saved.'

Wait if M'Gann's left hand is underneath her head and her right hand is holding my hand who's hand is running through my hair?

Looking up to my left I find Diana smirking at me in her one piece bathing suit-I mean armor with quite a bit of her large cleavage exposed.

"Hey." I greet Diana while feeling heat flush my face and cheeks which is currently matched by Diana.

Diana doesn't reply with her words but she leans down and presses her lips against mine soft and sensually she kisses me and I return said kiss back to her in an equal manner.

As Diana breaks the kiss I smile at her, "You're cute too Diana…especially with the way you blush like a cherry girl." I tease and I know my wording mostly escapes her as she gives me a bright dazzling smile.

"I am relieved to see you unharmed, my...…., but I must be going." Diana says to me but part of it, was said so quietly that I couldn't understand her.

"It was nice seeing you Diana, I hope we can spend more time together in the future." I say to her and honestly mean it the connection I felt settle into place putting her new wrist brazzers on her still the thrumming with life.

"It was nice seeing you as well, if the Fates allow it we will spend much more time together." Diana murmurs her blush growing even darker as she kisses me again before leaving the room.

"Damn waking up with two beautiful women in either side of me...dream come true? I think, yes!" I joke softly and gently pull M'gann down and making her lay on the bed with her head on my chest doing it all without waking her. 'I guess going back to sleep won't hurt anything.'
