Althea and Jerome picked up Lucy and the trio took to Gotham's streets for what was left of Penguin's property and goons. Althea was determined to destroy any imprint the fat fuck had on her city. Tonight was going to show Gotham and her underworld who ran the city and not to fuck with her or her family.
They pulled up to The Birdhouse, a skanky strip club Penguin had owned as Althea giggled, okay I'm out of boom but I have joker venom and you two have gas masks."
Lucy looked alarmed, "What about you?!?" She asked. Althea shrugged, "Acidic Napier/Quinzel DNA, I'm immune to it."
Jerome and Lucy put on the masks as the younger girl ran into the club cackling and throwing the venom smoke bombs shouting, "That fat bird is dead, and unfortunately so are all of you! She walked through the green smoke watching strippers, bouncers, patrons and bartenders laugh and cry as they tried to breathe and the grins on their faces froze.
Lucy watched her with interest and nerves. Her sister looked in her element amongst the death. In fact Althea looked serene, almost a peaceful look on her face mixed with boredom. It had been three days since Giggles had been hit and Penguin and his mansion had been blown to bits.
The green haired teen and her ginger haired boyfriend had been killing and burning everything they could. Cherry was never going to walk again, her leg so mangled she was undergoing multiple surgeries to attempt to save it. Little Jack had a concussion, broken arm and several broken ribs. He had been released to Jason and Harley just today.
Strange was trying to bring Jesse back but had no luck so far. This only enraged Althea more, threats of blowing up Arkham had been made so many times in three days Lucy feared her sister may blow up the whole damn island.
As Althea wandered the club shooting anyone who hadn't died yet a deep muffled voice caused her to frown. "Althea, these people had nothing to do with your brother's death. Killing them and all the others you've killed won't bring him back!"
It was Batman, and the green haired teenager wasn't hearing it, "No, no Batsy it won't. However, it will make it clear to Falcone and anyone else who gets an inkling to test me."
She turned to her uncle as his alter ego and swiftly moved and shot at him as she turned and ran from the building with Jerome in tow shooting at the Bat as well. Althea and Lucy both made a mental note that J wasn't with Damien. Lucy had already snuck out and started the car, the couple jumped in and she peeled away, disappearing before Batman could catch them.
Harley and Jason sat clinging to each other in the sitting room tears streaking Harley's cheeks and hurt and anger filling Jason's eyes.
The silence was painful, their wedding day marred forever with the death of their eldest. Selina had been taking care of little Jack and had Ivy bring her plant gels to help him heal quicker.
J hadn't worn his Robin uniform in days, he was unsure if he believed in their mission anymore. He was happy Althea killed the ugly bird man. He understood the warpath his kid sister was on and refused go join Damien in trying to stop her.
The grandfather clock came open and Damien looking tired and shirtless with large bruises covering his torso appeared with a sour look. "She shot me, she was slaughtering the last of Penguin's staff and when I tried to stop her, her and her boyfriend fucking shot me!" He grumbled.
Harley and J both snickered, "She's completely off the rails, what did you expect Damien? She surrender after the hundreds of people she has killed?" J asked looking at his uncle like he was stupid, "She blames herself, which is bullshit. Why go after the legit sibling?"
