Batgirl

"H-hey I have rights, dammit! I'll go to the cops! When I tell them about this you'll be-"

"I'll be fine. They'll just arrest you on the spot for drug trafficking." I said. I had one of Penguin's goons dangled up on a building looking over the Iceberg Lounge with a little pulley system. Artemis just looked on with her arms folded. "Speaking of drugs lets talk about those. You're Penguin's number one delivery boy. Cocaine, PCP, Morphine..." I pulled him in closer. "Venom."

"W-what!? I-I don't know anything about Bane!" He said. I dropped him down the building before grabbing onto the wire holding him.

"Oh, I'm surprised, you can actually hold onto that much weight." Artemis said.

"Could you shut it?"

"I've 'shut it' for the last five idiots and we're nowhere closer to finding this Bane brute." Artemis said before putting a hand on the pulley and lazily helping me bring him back up. "This time let me handle him." We pulled the guy back up to the roof where he was shaking like crazy.

"Wh-wha-" He began to say before Artemis punched him in the side making him cough blood.

"We never said anything about Bane." Artemis said.

"E-everyone's been t-talking about how he's b-back! I-I just assumed that's where the c-convo was going!"

"Well if people have been talking about it you've surely heard something." I said.

"A-and so what if I did!? Y-you think I'd tell you bitches!?"

"Big words coming from a guy who just pissed himself."

"What are you talking about!? I-" He said before I shocked him with a taser. This is beginning to get on my nerves. We've rounded up 6 of these scumbags now and not one of them has spilt anything about Bane. Unfortunately for each one of these bozos I get more and more angry with each one thinking about what Bane did to Tim, to Cass, and to (Y,N) and I-

"That's enough." Artemis said pulling me back by the cape. "If me and the trinity aren't allowed to kill during this whole thing, you aren't allowed to kill someone in a blind rage." She said. I looked back over at the guy and he was unconscious and smoking with a wet stain on his pants. "So I guess that's how much you care for him."

"Huh?"

"(Y,N). You're willing to break your dumb code out of anger for him."

"This isn't about (H/N)."

"You can stop with the dumb names, I'm sure you just put that guy in a coma. And don't pretend you don't have feelings for him. I'm not as dense as Jason. I can see you pretending to be some poor knock off Batman to shake down these criminals like you don't usually do. And I can see the jealousy in your eyes when (Y,N) would rather talk to me and the other two. Maybe it's because we didn't have to kidnap him to get him to hang out with us-"

"You don't know what you're talking about! Shut up!"

"Touchy, aren't we?"

"And what if I did like him? Do you think you would have a better chance with him? I'm sure (Y,N) wouldn't want to jump from one Cold Hearted Bitch to a another!" I said. I couldn't let Artemis know she was right. The best choice of action was to get to her the same way she was beginning to get to me. And it looked like I was from the way her eyes widened.

"You don't know a thing about me."

"You may not be dense but I was kinda trained by The World's Greatest Detective. But then again I don't need to be that smart in order to guess the girl who acts like an over protective girlfriend and kissed (Y,N) on the forehead has a thing for him!" Artemis clenched her Teeth and her fists before narrowing her eyes.

"Listen to me and listen good. We may not like each other but for now we have to work with each other. We will stop Bane and go our separate ways but Hera help me Jason and (Y,N)'s shared friendship with you won't stop me from giving you exactly what you deserve."

"And that's your first mistake. Giving someone in the Bat Family prep time." I said before walking away. "We need to keep searching for goons. Someone's going to have to spill."

Meanwhile at Amusement Mile

"The guy with the red Mohawk is the guy in charge of this little rally. He might be the one who's leading The Joker Gang right now." I said looking through my binoculars.

"Hey Steph, are you alright? You've seemed a little on edge since the whole thing with Robbie last night."

"I'm fine." I told Basil.

"How is he, anyway? You've seen him today right?"

"...I don't want to talk about it."

"Is he that banged up?"

"No. He's going to be fine..." I said before muttering something underneath my breath.

"Huh?"

"Nothing."

"You said something."

"I didn't-"

"Stephanie."

"... I said he's going to be fine physically, at least."

"What is that... Wait, did you-"

"Let's just do what we came here to do!" I said before dropping down off the building we were standing on. I had a lot of anger to let out and I decided to let it out on these guys. I landed on two guys before hitting another one with my staff. I flipped backwards and kicked another guy in the face before hitting a gun out of another goons hands. The others started firing before a huge wall of clay began to absorb the bullets. I grappled over to someone a kicked them into a wall before smashing their head into it. I continued to beat down all of the guys with Basil until only the guy with the Mohawk was left. He tried to run away before I throw a bola at him making him fall to the ground. I put my foot on his head.

"Ow! Shit! What the hell!? We ain't do nothin'!" He said.

"Where is he!?"

"Joker!? Shit if I know!"

"Don't play dumb! We heard your talk! You were rallying clowns to 'Defect'?"

"Yeah! J's been gone foreva! You think we're just gonna wait around for 'im!?"

"Yes. That's what Joker's followers do. You guys are like a cult. Either you stay because you're obsessed with him or you stay because he'll kill you if you do! And if you did defect it would have to be for someone who could protect you! And only one person can protect you from Joker!"

"Spoiler, might wanna was up on the foot. His nose is starting to bleed."

"What!? Wh-... Ooooooh I get it! You're looking for Bane, Aren't ya? He banged up ya buddies pretty bad didn't he!?" The goon began to chuckle. "Well guess what bitch, the only thing crazier than leaving Joker is ratting on Bane! You're never gonna find him until he wants you too! And at that point you'll be dead! And you'll work worse than Bird Boy does! And you'll all be dead! Especially that one little bitch who pissed him off (H/N)-" He said before I lost it. I picked him up and throw him against a broken down car before I started beating the shit out of him.

"DON'T YOU FUCKING SAY HIS NAME!" I said as I repeatedly punched him in the face. I didn't hear anything, I just kept punching his laughing face as more blood came out, more teeth fell out, More red stained my gloves until something pulled me back. "HEY! LET ME-" I said before my mouth got covered by a clay like substance.

"Alright kid, that's enough! We're going back to HQ! You need to cool down!" Basil shouted as I kicked and screamed with all my might.

. . .

With all the anger building inside Stephanie, she didn't notice a hawk flying above them with a camera attached to it's torso.

"Well I'll be damned." Bird said before pulling out his phone.

"Speak."

"Like always, you were right, Bane. The Purple chick has a thing for (H/N). She went ballistic when that phony Joker goon brought him up. Clayface had to carry her away."

"Excellent. Now we have two possible targets."

"Two?"

"The Batgirl and The Red Hood's amiga both fight for his affection. It is... pathetic. However the Amazonian shall be difficult for the three of you to capture. But there is still more work to be done. Contact Zombi.
