Ch: 94 [A ssy situation]
"That's an alien aircraft that we will be stealing right under their noses," Batman replied with a confident smirk, "Anyway, that's a thing for later. Right now, we need to get so things straight." He looked toward Alice, "What're you going to do next?"
"Well, that depends on the information of this baldie. I can arrest Sam, but he is either dead or long gone from my reach. So, I guess I will act as your bait. The H.I.V.E. or Waller whoever is trying to get rid of , must think I know sothing important, right? So, I doubt they will give up just because of one failed attempt. No. I think they will be more careful, sending so heavy hitters or a group next ti, which I am perfectly fine with." She stretched her body and cracked her neck before saying, "And we will catch them and expose them to the public..."
"The more desperate they get, the more mistakes they make and we can expose every little bit of information of the entire operation." Deadshot finished for her.
"Bingo," Alice replied with a smile. "Well, that was the plan for now. And it could've been better if a certain soone would just open their mouth and give us so more info."
"Haaa... Fuck! Ok, I will just give you so info for getting that bomb out of my head," Deadshot crossed his hands as he started explaining, "There are two spaceships. The one you saw is the first one and the second one is in H.I.V.E.'s control. Lex wants it at all costs, but H.I.V.E. won't budge unless Lex makes a way for them to enter Gotham. With Penguin, Black Mask, and Falcone dead, the cri world is in chaos and H.I.V.E. wants to take advantage of this ss and bring back the dark days in Gotham."
"Fuck!" Batman slamd his fist into the table and walked away in frustration. 'I shouldn't have killed the fat guy.'
"So, Lex got into so contacts who gave him the formula to develop power pills that give normal humans tahuman powers," Deadshot continued, "Now, Lex took this golden opportunity..."
"Ah! He can't enter Gotham due to Batman and Waynes. So, he decided to send so people with tahuman powers to cause chaos in Gotham to keep us busy while he would kill Arrow and swallow the Queen Consolidate into his company, then he would shift his attention toward us. The recent murders must be related to these power pill eaters," Batman completed Deadshot's sentence and looked at Alice, "But you found out sothing that could jeopardize their mission, that's why they went as far as to hire this guy and open fire in Gotham. So, what do you know about the recent murders that can make them run with their tails tucked between their legs?"
"Well," She crossed her hands and closed her eyes. "I can't think of any other reason than they must think I have so evidence to trace the recent murders."
Batman turned toward Deadshot, "But, I am guessing, you are working as a double agent, huh? Spilling beans to Waller about Lex and H.I.V.E. Let guess, Waller went behind Lex and made a deal with the H.I.V.E. Right?"
"Waller wants that spacecraft and she will go to any lengths to get it. She won't hesitate to kill Lex to get what she wants." He replied, "It doesn't matter to her, who will die in the process as long as she can get the spacecraft in her hands. That's all the information I can give to you, right now. So, when are you going to see my daughter's safety and all those things you promised?" He asked.
"They are already in safe hands. Waller or anyone won't be able to co close to her. Your daughter will attend Harvard next year. I have arranged all the necessary things for her. Or, if she wants to pursue other fields other than education, I am ready to arrange that too," he replied. "What else do you want?"
"She likes computer science you know, coding and all that stuff," Floyd smiled like a child.
"Barbara Gordon," He pulled up Barbara's profile on the computer screen, "She will tutor her if that's what your daughter wants. She is the best. Oh, and don't worry about money, food, rent, or cars." He typed sothing, "And there we go. She just won 5 million in the lucky draw card that she got from the supermarket." He smiled as he said, "White money, tax paid. So, there won't be any problem there. So... You wanna et her, right?"
"Yeah, but, I know it isn't safe. So, I will stay low for now, you know... Let her have a peaceful life." He smiled with his eyes glistening as if they would let the tears flow out anyti soon.
"If that's what you want," Batman took out a key and a smartphone, "Take it. Key to your new house. You will find all the necessities there. I am sure you know how to disguise yourself, right? So, stay low for a while, till I take care of this ss."
Floyd got the things, "Thanks." He stood up and was about to walk away but suddenly stopped. "If you need a hand, let know," He looked at Alice, "Sorry for aiming for your head."
"Go ho, baldie," She waved her hand as she lay back in her chair.
"Don't miss too much," He smirked before walking away.
...
"So, rember anything?" Batman asked Alice who was lost in her thoughts.
"Nope. Nothing cos to mind." She stood up from the chair, punching her fist on her palm, trying to rember what could possibly lead her to have a confrontation with the H.I.V.E, "Fuck! It must be so sort of an evidence, sothing important... But I just don't know what that is," She started walking toward the lab and peeked inside. "The fuck?!" She was shocked to see three unconscious guys wrapped in vines and the giant Venus Fly Traps wriggling around them.
"The guys related to the plant murder case. They tried to kill an associate of mine, so, now they are paying the price for their deeds. So, let's go grab so snacks, you hungry?" He asked.
"You kidding ?" She looked serious, "You doing so experints on them? Fuck!" As a cop, she shouldn't approve of such things. But considering all the shit going on lately and how deep everything seed to be, she didn't want to care about any rules right now.
"A cure for cancer," He replied, "And I don't think anyone would care about so gangsters or drug dealers, so... what's wrong in trying to find so answers and at the sa ti curing this world of a fatal disease? Atleast they would contribute to this world with their death in a different way. And if they survive, I promise to let GCPD have them, ok?"
"I think it's too late to give you any sermon about rules," She sighed, shaking her head, "And what about those plants?"
"Maybe I will tell you if you join my team of heroes, but if not... Well, then..." Batman replied with a playful smile as he walked away. "Co on. Let's have a bite."
She sighed, "Why do I get this feeling, you will be the death of ?"
"Oh, I would never... Not in a million years," He replied from the stairs. "How could I bear witness to such a beautiful kickass lady die by my hands, right?" He asked as he went toward the small kitchen to find so snacks, "Jokes aside, I think it might be related to your father's death. I tried to find info on him, but it's wiped clean. But, there might still be so hard copies of the docunts lying around." He opened a bag of potato chips, "So, how about you do so digging on the cases your dad's working on before, you know..."
"You think I haven't tried to find out? Even the hard copies are gone." She asked with a frown.
"So, a dead end, huh?" Batman sighed and threw a bag of potato chips at Alice. She caught it and grabbed a soda can from the freezer, "Well, no matter... We will be taking down Waller, Luthor, and H.I.V.E. in a single move and that's it."
"You make it sound like it's that easy," She sat beside him, taking a few potato chips.
"I can but the aftermath would be... well, ssy," Batman replied as he bit the chips, "If I expose Waller, all hell will break loose, there will be a lot of bad eggs, even among the good guys, and it won't be easy to clean all of them up. That's why we need to do this smart and we have a plan. As for Luthor, taking over his company is easy, but not that easy to control all the strings that are tangled behind that man. He is worse than Waller. And as for H.I.V.E. I am waiting for Jarvis to finish his upgrade, then we are good to go..." He explained.
"It's going to be a long ride," She stretched her arms in the air, "Haaa... Tomorrow morning is going to be a nightmare... I need a proper night's sleep." Her phone rang. A ssage from the GCPD. "Huh? It survived. Fuck! Well, no sleep for tonight... Gotta go. They recovered my car and now searching for . How am I going to explain it to them?"
"Just say I saved you. Should take the pressure off your shoulders and as for the dead thugs, cover it up as a gang fight or sothing. The CCTVs are down in that area, so no worries," Batman replied with a smile. "And keep that bracelet close, yeah?"
"Will do... Oh, I need a ride," She asked.
"Let's go..."
