Deadshot ends up going into the room where Flag went. I don't know what's happening there but I want to know. After ten long minuets Flag and deadshot walk out with Amanda fucking Waller following. This bitch is HTV1? I glance at K.C, everyone is pissed. We are only here because of her and we had to rescue her? It makes no sense.

I don't say a single thing knowing she has my life in her hands. I don't plan on dying when Puddin is so close. We climb the stairs to the roof where her chopper will be. I lean against the air conditioning machine. "Team 01 rad element" someone says. Deadshot and Flag glance at each other, Flag nods and the guy says, "team 01 do you copy"

Still getting no reply. I stand back, a grin starts to form on my face as the chopper slowly lowers and spins around. "Boss they aren't talking to me" Flags face along with Amanda's harden. "Our birds been jacked," he says, "light it up!" he yells. Everyone raises their weapons and shoots at the chopper. Just as the chopper turns enough, someone inside starts to fire a machine gun. Lighting everything up. We all jump over random things to get to cover. The chopper spins more and another guy starts shooting another gun. I plug my ears and get some cover, Deadshot gets next to me. His eyes are locked on me and he's upset.

"What?" I cover my neck, "I got a hickey or something?" my phone buzzes and i check it,

PUDDIN: NOW!

I smile and look up; I make eye contact with deadshot and he shakes his head telling me not to go. I get up and walk to the platform, "Raven!" Deadshot yells.

"Come on baby" Joker kicks a black rope down as he sees me.

I left my bat behind. My smile grows as I see him.

"Kill her!" Waller yells to Flag.

He tries to kill me with the device on his wrist, it fails every time he tries it. "Her nanites disarmed!"

"Come on, baby" he says again.

I shred off my jacket and take off running. I jump and grip the black rope so I don't fall to my death. As the chopper is raised, I'm able to see all my friends. I blow them a goodbye kiss with a giggle, I wave to them also.

"Deadshot" Amanda says to him, "you shoot that woman right now" she demands

He walks closer to her, "she ain't do shit to me"

"You're a hit man, right. I got a contract. Kill Raven Quinn. Do it for your freedom, and your daughter"

"Oh, she's dead" he says and walks away to take position.

Boomerang sucks his teeth and looks away from Deadshot. Deadshot looks through the scope on his gun to get a good view of me.

I'm doing tricks and turning upside down as we fly. I keep my eyes on deadshot as he fires the shot. I drop some of the rope and spin down looking dead. Tricking them all. After a few long seconds I jump back up and smile and giggle.

Deadshot walks back over to Amanda, "i missed" he says before walking away from her and back to the other bad guys.

"Good one mate," Boomerang says.

Waller raises a walkie talkie to her mouth, "its Waller. Savior 1-0 has been hijacked. Shoot it down"

"Roger that ma'am, going hot"

Once far enough from that building I start to climb up the rope, J pears down at me. He holds on to something so he won't fall while he stretches his hand out to grab mine. I take his hand and his help and get up on the aircraft. "Puddin!" I smile my heart hammering in my chest as I see him for the first time in months

I throw my arms around him and kiss him deeply; he wraps his free arm around my waist pulling me close to him. I pull back from the kiss, "you got all dressed up for me?" I take in the sight of him in the suit.

"Oh, you know I'd do anything for you" he keeps his hand on the small of my back. "By the way, I've got some grape soda on ice and a bear skin rug waiting" he whispers in my ear. "Yeah?" I grin.

"Boss we got a problem!" Johnny yells.

"Huh?" a missile comes through the front lighting fire in its wake. "This bird is bate" he looks back down at me. I looked between the fire and him worried, I had just gotten back to my Puddin. I don't want to lose him. He looks down noticing we are over a building, "okay, honey. It's me and you"

My smile comes back, "let's do it" we hold hands and just when we are about to jump the chopper gets hit again, causing me to fall and him to stay. "Ah!" I scream as I fall without him. I can hear Joker yelling also. I fall onto the roof rolling but landing. I run to the edge and grip the building, watching the chopper go down and down until it hits a building and explodes. "No!" I cried. I fall down onto my knees, my leg unable to hold me up any longer. I sob into my arm as I watch the fire raise from that building.

Back with the other bad guy's Amanda Waller turns to them, "the Joker and Raven Quinn are no more"

The bad guys look disappointed especially Deadshot, "you couldn't save her" Boomerang says to him.
