Justice League Legends: Midoriya's Journey

Episode 9: Injustice For All Part II

Batman begins to wake up slowly, Joker slaps him and says. "Wakey, Wakey, Batman."

Batman responds with a no surprised tone. "Joker, I should've known you'd be on this."

Joker responds with a mocking surprised tone wit hands on his face. "Really? Ha! I must be falling into a rut."

Joker then walks over to Lex and asks. "You're not going to leave him like this, are you?"

Lex asks back. "Why?"

"Hello? He's still alive!" Joker responds, gritting his teeth.

Luthor stays firm in his decision, not bothered by Joke. "And he's going to stay that way until I say we don't need him anymore."

"Lex, Lex. Listen to someone who knows. Don't wait. Do it now..." Joker whispers the last into Lex's ear while tracing his finger to the pistol on Luthor's holster.

Lex says before elbowing Joker in the stomach. "You don't like my decisions? Leave!"

Joker mutters while walking off. "And they say I'm crazy."

The other villain stare at Lex, uncertain if keeping Batman alive is good idea.

Luthor looks back and yells at them. "What? Those restraints are pure titanium, he'll never get loose. And the stasis field will prevent the Martian from locating him."

He then approached Batman and asks. "Now Batman, you must have some kind of pass key or access I can use against your friends. Where is it?"

Batman smirks with a smug face and says. "Guess."

"Grundy." Luthor orders the brute who is holding the hero's utility belt.

Grundy touches the belt, only to be zapped by it with electrical discharge and falls to the ground unconscious.

Rollerblader rolls to the unconscious Grundy and kicks him who twitches a bit. "I'm kinda glad this guy's a zombie."

Joker responds in a singing and taunting tone. "I told you."

"Shut up!" Lex says back before walking upstairs, he orders. "Bring that upstairs. I'll get it open."

Star Sapphire uses her gem to levitate the belt as the villains leave with Lex.

Grundy regains consciousness and gets ordered by Lex. "Humanite,Grundy,Strong Arms. Watch him."

Batman glares at the trio as they guard the captured hero.

Batman asks Grundy. "Grundy, what's Luthor paying you?"

Grundy says. "Money, lots of it."

Strong Arms agree with Grundy. "Yeah, hehe."

Batman responds. "As much as he's getting?" He looks towards Humanite

Grundy responds. "I don't know."

Batman then says. "Look at all you've had to put up with. You should be getting more."

"More than me? Preposterous!" Humanite says as he walks away.

Batman then says to the other two. "Is it?"

The two then look at Humanite who was reading a newspaper not even bothering to keep an eye on the prisoner.

Grundy growls and Strong Arms glares at Humanite

Meanwhile in the other room with the other villains...

Lex was with the other villains as he tries to hack through the belts defence mechanism. "Fascinating." He says as he activates the devices to disrupt the mechanism.
