Chapter 91: Her Wings? Your Wings? No, My Wings! II
........
"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?"
She was doing her job well, Ian noted. He ignored her words, and explained, "I know what am doing. I just want you to make it as small as possible while focusing on flexibility, but size comes first."
"Mm mm I agree, size comes first." Harley nodded in agreement.
Again, Ian ignored her comments and continued, "The material I'll provide is extremely scarce, and I was only able to acquire a bit of it, so be careful with it."
Cisco and Caitlin wanted to ask Ian, so many questions, but they saw his focus on business, so they remained silent. Harrison was the one to make the decision after looking through the blueprint for a while, "What material are we talking about?"
"Promethium. Everything necessary should be delivered by tomorrow." The same material he made the staff of all things with. He still has left but very little.
"We can do it. The contract is already prepared." And that they did, they signed the completed the deal, and all Ian had to do was to wait for the results.
"Are you a metahuman?" However, while walking Ian and his group outside, Caitlin, the curious person that she is, she couldn't help but inquire.
"Maybe? Who knows." A shrug was basically his answer.
"Oh oh I know! I know, he's a collector! You know, of women?" Harley cutely eyed Ian, almost questioning him.
'Ughh, I guess my personal team is only composed of women? But I swear I didn't mean for that to happen... It all natural, all led by a higher power.'
Ian convinced himself of what he perceived to be the truth and ignored Harley again, making her pout. On the bright side, Selina was amused. She still didn't take that possibility into consideration, simply because she doesn't care for one reason or another.
The project will certainly take a while, so Ian decided to acquire one of the most important objects that currently exist on the face of the earth. He didn't instruct Layla to do something before though, he instructed her to send a few messages... That's it.
He went on to disappear for a few days, leaving the disappointed Harley in training with Layla. He did have to come back very soon though he had completed his objective, and it was surprisingly easy. His target was after all just framed in a glass case on a wall. It was almost like a charity.
He was called upon by S.T.A.R labs themselves, inviting him back for an emergency.
Caitlin was again waiting at the front for him though this time, she appeared apologetic as she said, "This... Can they wait outside?" It seemed that they didn't think he'd bring Selina and Harley again.
"Huh? Are you saying that I, the boss's right-hand man, his protector, and the vice boss of the entirety of Gotham can't go in with him?" It was like an instinctive reaction as Harley seriously and Earnestly spoke... Caitlin almost believed her if not for Ian flicking the clown's forehead with a speechless expression.
"Aww Why Boss? Was I too gentle? But I don't have my bat, how can I go hard without it?" She was a master of nonsense, no opponent could even stand to face her... Except for someone with a tiny bit of a distorted sense of reality. Tiny bit I must stress.
"How about if you jump into a fast-moving vehicle and when you survive, she'll take pity on you and let you in," Ian suggested.
"Aw? Hmm... That might just be a very good idea." And she was about to try it as she turned around. Caitlin was quick though as she stopped her.
"I... A... Tha, you can come in also, yeah, just please come in." She even pushed her inside when she noticed Harley looking disappointed.
Much to Ian's surprise, the flash himself was actually inside. Ian had to try hard to show a surprised expression for some reason. It's not like he was expecting this somehow.
But Ian could somehow sense something, 'I sense charity heading my way for some reason. It must be a coincidence again...'
The flash was adorned in his flash outfit, not showing his face though Ian knows that basically every one of the flash team knows the latter's identity, 'He doesn't trust me... I wonder why?'
"The flash huh? I had my suspicion but you're really working here." Ian murmured, letting Barry Allen knows that he knows so that the flash can also let him that he knows and that he did.
"... Batman didn't lie." The flash murmured, cautiousness appearing in his eyes.
"So Batman did tell you about me huh? I'm kind of sad, I expected better from a friend... Really, too bad." Ian looked downcast, and almost everyone in the room believed him, except Barry.
The way Batman talked about Ian was as if he was speaking of a virus he wishes to get rid of but not at the same time.
Suddenly Ian felt someone hugging him from behind. He clearly felt the sensation of two bountiful mounds on his back. Wonder what those are?
"It's okay boss, I understand," Harley consoled him with a bit of sadness in her voice, almost tearing up, "Someone I considered a friend betrayed me once... It was Headbreaking. Just remembering that sweet sensation of my bat crushing her soft skull... Ahn! wonderful. Wanna try it, boss?"
"Actually..." The fact that Ian was considering it made everyone even more speechless. They were simply stunned not sure whether she was joking or not, "Maybe? I mean, Ahem, she's a special case, so just ignore her."
'Lair! Can you be more obvious?!'
Even Selina was a bit speechless, 'Is she like converting him? But he's already crazy, it couldn't possibly get any worse, right?'
"Anyway, what's the emergency? It's not something about the commission, is it?" Ian wondered.
"No... I need your help."
'Hmm, something is strange. I expected something similar but... Is it Batman?' Still, Ian indicated for him to continue.
"Normally, I would be able to take care of it myself, but a certain emergency happened... Three metahumans started working together, and I want to stop them without risking innocent lives." Barry spoke seriously, stressing the last part.
"Aren't you like the fastest man alive?"
"Yeah yeah! just run there and beat them up before they react... I can even give you my bat, the skull crusher!!" Childish is what she was though one could argue she was just a free cheerful soul.
"I... It's not that easy."
"Of course it's not," Ian seemed to agree, "So what's the price?"
"Price?"
"Don't act dumb. Batman must've told you how I am."
"What if... No, I shouldn't say it." Harley interrupted again while still hugging him from behind, taking her liberties right in front of the uncaring Selina, though she stopped herself from continuing... Just for a second.
"I have to continue! Can I? What if he's actually dumb!" The silence in the room drove an apologetic expression on her face, "Sorry, my tongue slipped... Hehe."
Yeah, she was definitely apologetic, and everyone in the room believed her, so everyone chose to just ignore her from now on as Barry asked, "Well, what do you want?"
"You're right. What do I want? What do you think Harley?" Ian was curious about her perspective.
"Well a bat of course. What else more could anyone wish for?"
"Oh right. How about you help me with an experiment? It should be quite easy for you. In fact, I'm losing here." After little contemplation, Ian made his offer.
"As long as it's not something dangerous to anyone else, or me then I don't mind." The flash's answer was as quick as if he thought it all through.
"So let me tell you about them. The first is someone who can multi..."
"Multiplex!" Cisco interrupted with enthusiasm, and took over the scene, "I call him Multiplex because he can multiply, as in literally create clones of himself. They were even able to beat B... The Flash!"
"You didn't have to say tha..." Barry murmured under his breath, his expression was bleak.
"Pfft hahhahaha, the fastest man alive Hahahaha."
Hell, even Selina was confused, 'Ian told me of how fast he is, so how? If only I had such... But Ian did tell me I will be overdosing with happiness by the end of the trip, so perhaps...'
Anticipation was apparent on her face, but she didn't forget to casually observe the very advanced lab from time to time. That's part of why she's here after all.
"Is it time to softly brush some skulls?" Harley whispered in Ian's ear, making sure no one else hears her.
"It's called gently poke I believe?"
"But I have a bat?"
"But I have a spear?"
