DC Girls X Villain Male Reader

Issue 14: First Detour

"So I leave the room for five minutes and you give my job to some spoiled rich girl!?"

"I gave your worst job out of about four to the owner of The Pink X suit who apparently took out three of our guards without even trying. By the way, get the names of those guards and fire them." I told Mercy as I put the finishing touches on the portal. Everyone else had retired to their own personal rooms except Mercy who was nagging me, Roulette who was sitting in her chair looking down at her phone, and Manta in the security room.

"So say we finish setting up this little group of yours, what's our first job?" Mercy asked.

"I think priority is taking out the Supers. Once we get them the rest should be easy pickings with the exception of the Marvel Family." I said. "Even then, Shazam is a mere child and it's safe to assume that whole group is as well."

"Hey, not to backseat-take-over-the-world over here but shouldn't we neutralize the Legion? You stepped on a lot of toes when you created The Vicious Circle. Adam, Vandal, Penguin are all going to be gunning for you." Roulette said.

"I'm not scared of Cobblepot."I said rolling my eyes.

"And the other two?"

"Won't be hard to beat." I said before multiple alarms started going off. "What the hell?" I said half to myself before I grabbed a chip and a syringe and Mercy and I ran out of the room. We quickly made our way to the security room where Manta was waiting.

"Unidentified movement in sector 5B. Everyone except for you two and Roulette are in their personal rooms and all upper level Lex Corp. staff members are no longer in the building."

"Sector 5B? That's down here! How the hell did they get down here without the Elevator!?" I shouted. "Fill the sector with knockout gas immediately!" I said.

"Right away." Manta said.

"They'll be on their ass in no time. Air out the rooms after 2 minutes and then wait another 5 before bringing our unwanted guest to a holding cell." I told Manta. "And, give them this." I said before handing him the syringe and brainwashing chip.

"Not taking any chances?" Mercy asked.

"There's only two possible reasons for someone to break into the lair. It could be a burglar looking for something valuable, however that theory is highly unlikely because the only thief skilled enough to make it this far is Catwoman and to my knowledge there's no way she'd know about this base considering she's never been one to fraternize with the Legion and her disdain for Mr. Luthor. Leaving the only possible option is someone from the Legion of Doom hired an assassin to kill me, despite the only one who possibly could being Deathstroke, who is on our payroll. Both of his sons are dead and his daughter is apart of the Teen Titans over in Jump City, making her unable to kill me. However, the fact Anyone got this far is alarming to say the least. I'd rather not give them the opportunity to try again and use them for my own needs instead."

"I have the subject from here. You can continue your night." Manta said.

"Excellent, work. Goodnight, Manta." I said walking out of the security room with Mercy. As we got into the hallway we ran into Cold.

"What's all the hubbub, bub?" Cold asked.

"Someone snuck into the base but the nuisance is being dealt with as we speak. What are you doing up and about?"

"Me and Manta are taking shifts watching security. Even people like him have to sleep. What were you doing up so late?"

"Still working on the final touches to the portal."

"Jeez, kid, could you relax for one minute? Lex didn't get this far in his plan in one year, you don't have to catch up to him in one week. Take the rest of the night off."

"I agree with Snart. We don't have to stay up all night working on your dumb multiverse portal." Mercy said.

"You don't have to stay up at all."

"Yes I do. I'm your bodyguard. Say your alleged assassin made it all the way to the lab, you would've needed me to save your ass." Mercy said. I rolled my eyes.

"Fine. I suppose I could take the rest of the night off. Besides I have some more PR work to do with Lex Corp. tomorrow. And then I have to visit the scientists in the above ground lab about a few things."

"You have more scientists yet you're making me, You, and Manta work day and night on your little Stargate?"

"I've worked with those peons upstairs for several years and there's no way in hell I trust them with something as delicate as the portal. Those morons are probably the ones who told Mr. Luthor to use the portal to bring over the Earth 3 'heroes' in the first place." I said. "Goodnight, Leonard."

"Don't work yourself to death. Won't look good on my record if I gave up a comfy spot at the head of the Legion for some clown who died of dehydration and lack of sleep." Cold said. Mercy and I began to walk down the hallway again.

"So you going to sleep?"

"I suppose so. Why, you want to tuck me in?"

"Ugh, get real, (Y,N)!" Mercy said. "I was just asking to see if I could get some sleep myself."

"Well, then, sweet dreams Mercy." I said before moving a stray hair to the side of her face. She turned away.

"Yeah, night, (Y,N)." She said.
