"I wanted to get it right now," Selina murmured with a pout. She was arm in arm with Ian, both walking elegantly out of the airport.
"It's too valuable. It will surely be hard to borrow. Who knows if someone or something supernatural is protecting it?"
"Ah? Something supernatural? What is it?!" Oh right, a new member has joined them, an odd cheerful one.
"Harley, don't be rude. Remember that you don't have many chances left." Indeed it was Harley Quinn. The moment she had met Ian, she acted as if she knew him for years. Thankfully, Layla was also there to reprimand her.
"It's okay, just let her act how she wants... We're talking about a piece of interesting jewelry made of black diamond. It's said that every man that ever had his hands on it ended up dead not long after.
I did my investigation, and it appears that that's true though whether it's a coincidence or something else is still unknown."
"Then can I have it? It sounds cool?!" Without any shame, Harley Quinn spoke, making Selina's face twitch, veins popping on her head.
"God, why did you bring her here? I'd much rather have Ivy with us than this glob of insanity?"
"Hahaha, it's amusing?" Ian was certainly having fun at everyone else's expense. His words didn't make Selina mad, but what did was Harley sticking her tongue out at her with a childless behavior, almost expressing her contempt.
She was really a unique glob of insanity as she danced and jumped around amidst the passing people without care for anything in the world.
Thankfully, she didn't have her clown makeup on, it took Layla ages to convince her to take it off.
A limousine was already waiting for them at the front. It took them directly to a villa Ian already rented.
'It's unfortunate that Raven isn't here though I'm looking forward to what she's working on. Will she succeed in stopping Trigon without my help?'
A Staff manifested itself in Ian's hands as he waited for Selina to change her clothes, they have business to attend to.
"I gave you my life, and in return, I acquired your everything. Gorgeous colorless lines branching out throughout your graceful being, a sign of our consensual exchange... Isn't that, right?"
Something made Ian a bit poetic as his eyes carefully observed every detail of the staff of all things, his greatest creation. The staff does look exceptionally different though.
The colorless lines that started appearing due to feeding it his life force only went on to grow, making the staff look... Unique, almost like an ancient priceless relic.
'It's been five months of constant, almost unending transfer of life force, yet I still don't feel like this is the end. The give and take process has yet to be completed... I can feel however the staff getting stronger day by day. I wonder, will its weakness be completely negated by the end?'
Indeed, he was even more sure that the energy he calls life force may not be just that. It's still life force, but it's also much more at the same time.
'Moreover, the thing on my back... Another dot appeared. I already know that my life force is constantly going through some kind of transformation.
I remember that I had many scars on my body, and no amount of intimate contact could get rid of them, but at some point in time, that changed. The day Ivy took care of me, my scars disappeared. There are many possibilities as to why, but for now, they remain possibilities...'
He set his doubts aside as he heard the sound of footsteps coming behind him. The staff vanished as he stood up, ready to head to his destination.
"The plan will be a multi distraction scheme." He spoke as he eyed the two beauties before him.
The naughty one of them teased, "When is it not?"
"Hmm? I'm sure that at some point in my life, I implemented a plan that... That doesn't include distractions... Right?" Ian was unsure, getting a laugh of amusement out of Selina.
"Well, you know what they say. If it works, then why change it?"
"I know! because it can be changed to something better!" That was the point where Harley chose to butt in, "Like! Like for example, why don't we just break in and break everyone's head! I have a bat, I can do it! it's super effective!"
And just when Ian thought she said something kind of smart, she went on to make him speechless though it's understandable considering she doesn't know who they'll be facing in a little while.
He stared at her strangely, seeing question marks floating around her somehow before saying, "Harley... Just be you. Selina, observe."
Their destination was S.T.A.R labs, quite an interesting place, "Do you know that I've never left Gotham? I'm looking forward to breaking some sk... Oops hehehe."
Only then did Ian realize just how amusing can the clown be. She was like a chatterbox and can be annoying, yet you never want to turn it off... For Ian at least. Selina had another perspective on the matter.
It seemed that the labs were already expecting them. How could they not? Ian made an appointment after all. He knows what happens when an appointment isn't made, it's common sense really.
"Mr. Ian? I'm Dr. Caitlin snow. I will be showing you the way." Welcoming them was a blonde lady, seeming to be in her twenties, quite beautiful and youthful.
"Ian Rose, it's pleasure to meet you," Ian returned the greeting, "And these are Selina and Harley. You wouldn't mind going inside with me, would you?"
"No, not at all," Caitlin hurriedly shook her head, knowing just how important such a client could be for the labs.
Strangely, Harley remained silent for way too long, for like twenty seconds, then as if a light bulb lit up in her mind, her eyes shone and her mouth wandered in the lands of nonsense.
"You want her? You have a lot of beauty around her, so if I help you get her, will I score a high mark? Hmm, how about I be the brain of the family? I can be quite convincing after all?" And said all of that out loud.
Selina just facepalmed in exasperation. Caitlin was speechless, her mouth agape before she murmured in embarrassment, "I have a husband..."
"And I have a girlfriend," Ian shook his head with a sigh, "Just ignore her antics, she's a bit special."
A light of understanding surfaced in Caitlin's eyes as she gazed at Harley still murmuring to herself like a crazy person, "Ah, I see... T-then please follow me."
"I don't but it at all. Is it because her assets are not that big? Don't act like I didn't see you do naughty stuff with her, very naughty." She emphasized.
"Hm? I did?"
"Yup, you two touched hands."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Ian could swear she wasn't this unhinged when Layla is around. She was much more well behaved, a saint even.
"Ahem, we're here... I'll intr..." Caitlin was interrupted.
"No need. I of course investigated the facility and I know every one of you, so I'd much rather get to business right away." Ian was actually quite in a hurry. After all, wings can fly, and they might just fly away from his vision.
There were three people in the room beside Caitlin, Harley, and Selina. Seated in a wheelchair was Dr. Harrison Wells, the team leader. Beside him stood Cisco Ramon, a mechanical engineering genius. Then there is Caitlin's husband, a structural engineer named Ronald Raymond.
In front of everyone's eyes, a large paper appeared in Ian's hand, much to their shock, but Ian didn't care. He never did anything to hide any of his powers, much less his personal dimension.
Moreover, the group was not strange to such things, the flash in a part of the group after all though he was nowhere to be seen.
Ian spread the paper on a table, "This is a blueprint of a certain device I'm designing, but this is not my specialty, so I couldn't complete it.
I will provide the materials and everything necessary, all you have to do is to perfect it and build it. I have already discussed the price with Dr. Harrison, so you all can take a look at it and tell me if you can do it."
"How did you do that?"
"Don't mind it and just take a look." Ian ignored Cisco's question and instructed though he could faintly see a sliver of cautiousness surface on Harrison's face. What? Did he think someone who took over Gotham in about a year would be normal?
Their reactions weren't that intense as expected because they were used to such supernatural stuff by now.
Cisco and Caitlin approached the blueprint first, studying it for just about a minute before the former spoke, "Why do you want something so useless? I don't see how it would work at all, just a piece of metal lying around?"
"Huh? Are you saying the boss is stupid? Boss! Give me my bat!! I have to educate them on how skulls are brok... Ahem... I mean, Oops?"
