"So Harl'........how long have you been buddies with Batman?"



Harley sighed as she hopped off Shark's back, stepping onto the rooftop. Boomerang's question could be easily answered and it would be, no point in keeping secrets from people who'll die with you, right? Harley was just about to answer till Deadshot landed beside them.



"Wait a minute, why do you guys still call him Batman?" Deadshot asked as he looked at the two ex-criminals. Harley raised an eyebrow and tilted her head as she and Boomerang stared at the man. "What? His identity was exposed five years ago, his name is Bruce Wayne. You know, the millionaire playboy orphan?"



".......you have so much to learn new guy." Boomerang shook his head and let out a disappointed sigh. Deadshot watched as Harley shook her head and Shark scratch his neck. "So what are we doing here Harley?"


"Lex Luthor, but Waller thinks we're on a scouting mission." Harley answered as Boomerang, remembering Batman's message for her. She had a tracker that was leading them towards the bald millionaire, who was apparently really close to the squad. The tracker began to beep rapidly causing Harley to look up and tilt her head in question. Attached to the billboard in front of them was a green metal device with a gold L emblem on it. "The hell is this?"






"A decoy."



"FUCKING HELL!!!" Boomerang shouted as he turned around, spotting Batman standing beside King Shark. Deadshot instinctively aimed his guns at the Bat in surprise, ready to fire. The only ones who weren't surprised was Harley and Shark. Boomerang held his chest as Batman walked forward, stepping past the Australian and towards the device. "Damn it Shark, why didn't you say a bloody thing?!"




"I thought you heard him." Shark answered with a shrug of his shoulders. Deadshot sighed and slowly lowered his weapons, watching as Batman pulled out the same device from LexCorp tower and began typing away. Shark stepped forward and stopped behind Batman, his eyes widening in childish curiosity. "Mr Batman, sir, may I ask what you are doing?"




"This isn't the only decoy. Luthor sent out many decoy devices that emits the same power frequency of his suit in order to confuse Brainiac's forces." The vigilante answered the Shark as he continued decrypting the device. Harley clapped her hands together and awed at the site of the two, maybe Shark would become a robin....he is an orphan after all. "Luthor's suit however gives of a different energy frequency from the decoys." Shark scratched his nose with one of his claws, trying to understand everything of the holographic screen. "Kryptonite, it lets off
a frequency that can't be properly copied."






"Of course the guy has kryptonite in his suit." Boomerang laughed as he walked up to the device and raised his hand, ready to bring it down. "Because Luthor is nothing but a junkie with a—"



"Wait!!!"

Batman reached out for Boomerang's shoulder just as the convict slammed his hand down. A small sizzle sounded out and three squad members looked in confusion at the two of them stood completely still.

"What is wrong with you two?" Shark asked immediately, taking a step forward and reaching out to grab Batman's shoulder. "You appear as if...."


"Don't touch us." Batman spoke quickly before Shark could grab him, making the giant fish stop himself. The vigilante grunted as he tried moving his limbs but to no prevail. "It was rigged to trap multiple targets. Touching one of us will only result in you being captured as well."
