Justice League of Equestria: Gods and Monsters

“So, all of these cool weapons are yours?” Pinkie asked as she poked the stomach of a stuffed bear... only two immediately draw it back as a massive bear trap ripped itself out of the fabric and nearly took her hand off.

“Yeah, but some of my weapons ended up being scrapped and abandoned. Like the squirrel torpedo, just couldn’t get the weight ratio to work right....” Toyman mused as he chucked a dart at one of the mannequins, missing the head and hitting the wall... and then immediately exploding.

"Ooooh!" Pinkie said with a smile on her face. "It still looks like fun!"

"Oh yeah, I can't tell you how many times I've used them just to get a good laugh!" He chuckled as he pulled out a deck of playing cards and started shuffling them. "Those poor thugs had no idea what hit them!"

"Aw, I bet that was an awesome sight!" Pinkie said excitedly as she skipped alongside Button.... before she finally saw something that was like heaven to her. "I-is..... is that a...... pink sledgehammer with a bow on it?"

"Oh that old thing?" Toyman mused as she ran towards it. "Yeah, it's one of mom's older inventions, it has rocket boosters inside it to give it an extra kick when hitting someone..." He sighed as he turned to walk away. "Unfortunately she ended up making it too heavy to use…"

"MINE!" Pinkie shouted as she grabbed and hugged it like it was her own toy. "I love hammers. They're my favorite weapon besides chainsaws."

Toyman turned around in confusion, and immediately dropped his cards in shock. This lady didn't seem to have as much muscle mass and yet she was lifting it over her head like it was light as a feather!

"Alright sweetie!" The Trickster called out. "It's time for our plan of attack! Tonight we take out Black Mask for good!"

"Aw... it feels like it's too soon already." Pinkie pouted. Toyman however just smiled wickedly as he casually walked up to where his mother was with Pinkie skipping behind him.

Entering the room, they saw Trickster sitting at a long table with several maps laid out before her. "So! What the big plan to take out Mr. Mask? Does it involve explosions?!" She asked eagerly before noticing Joe still tied to the chair on the other side.

"Well the first thing we're going to do is set up a distraction so that I can sneak in." Trickster said and made an “X” at one spot. "Toyman is going to set a toy that will draw attention and cause it to be brought in. It'll blow up and cause a distraction for me to sneak in. You will-"

"Blow stuff up? Like I normally do? Please let me blow stuff up!" Pinkie said excitedly yet.... Trickster noted there was a hint of fear in her voice... like she HAD to cause some kind of property damage..... or kill somepony.

"You'll be allowed to blow up anything you want… as long as you stay outside." She stated cautiously for long another “X”on the opposite side of the warehouse. "You'll be assisting Toyman in taking out as many gang members as possible, security is airtight around this part so you should have plenty to slaughter. When I give the signal Toyman will enter from the roof while you draw their attention by attacking various points around the base."

"Yay!" Pinkie said with a smile on her face. "This is gonna be the best party ever!"

"Wait, then why's he here?" Toyman asked, gesturing to Joe.

"I wanted to be sure nobody ratted out to Black Mask." Trickster said. "So until we're done he's staying here."

“After this all blows over, I'm leaving town…” He grumbled to himself.

Late that night, several trucks approached the large warehouse, this was the main base of operations for Black Mask’s gang: The False Facers. Near the entrance, a large truck backed into the garage with a few thugs standing guard.

"Alright honey. The plan is a go." Trickster said to her son who chuckled a little.

However, not too far away. Pinkie was glaring at the window before her, her “other self” smiling at her maliciously.

“Is it time?” She asked eagerly.

"Yeah... it's time Mena." Pinkie sighed as she seized up.

Down below, one of the thugs walked towards his allies. “Hey guys! You'll never believe what I found!” He shouted, holding up a familiar looking doll.

“Seriously? A doll?” One of them scoffed. “What are you, three?”

“Wait, is that…” Another exclaimed. “...Baby Doll?”

“Yeah! They don't even MAKE these anymore!” The first thug smirked.

“So?”

“So?! Look at what good condition this thing’s in! can you imagine how much I could get for this on eHay?!”

Toyman smirked before hitting the detonator. “Time to play!”

The doll then exploded and the thug holding it went along and was nothing more than two hooves that fell down seconds later. Everyone close to him died which was.... all of two other ponies.... he wasn't a popular guy.

“And that's my cue…” Trickster giggled as she leaped off the roof. Toyman quickly pulled out his remote control (which now had a screen on it) and activated his toy helicopters, bomb-in-boxes, and Baby Dolls, all of them causing havoc around the warehouse. “Hey Pinkie, better get in on the action before my toys kill them all!”

"Pinkie's sleeping right now.... but I'll have some fun." Mena said as she raised her hammer and brought it down on one thug. Making him a red smear on the pavement. "Pop goes the weasel!"

"Yeesh..." Toyman winced as he watched Mena ruthlessly slaughtered the thugs. "Glad I'm not them..." He smirked before commanding his helicopters to shoot down more thugs while his bomb-in-a-boxes detonated around the warehouse.

"Eyes on the prize dear." Trickster joked as she used her razor yo-yo to slice one thug's throat and had it wrap around another's neck before causing it to snap.

Wasting no time, she pulled out some playing cards and threw several of them at a stack of crates, just as the thugs rounded corner the cards started beeping and exploded, destroying the lower half of the crate and causing them to fall on them. Smirking she quickly tossed a can of laughing gas over her shoulder before leaping up to one of the crates.

Meanwhile Mena was just slamming her hammer down on anything that moved. Every False Facer who saw her panicked and ran... but that's not just because they saw what she did to their friend..... everyone in Gothamville was scared of Pinkie 'Harley' Pie..... but this wasn't her..... as she loved to point out at times...... everyone was scared of The Joker.

“Are you all ready to die? Good, because I'm ready to kill!” She cackled as she ran after another thug before basing his brains in with her hammer. She then saw several thugs coughing/laughing in a green cloud of gas, the aftermath of the Tricksters bomb. “Time conduct a symphony of pain!”

She smiled as she leapt into the gas-completely unaffected-and started bashing thugs left a right. “One little, two little DEAD little idiots, four little, five little DEAD little idiots!”

"W-WE GOTTA GET OUT OF HERE!" One False Facer shouted as he ran away from Pinkamena. "SHE'S FUCKING NUTS!"

"HAHAHAHAHAHA! SANITY IS OVERRATED!!" She cackled as she pulled out her gun and shot them in the legs. "TIME TO KILL, TIME TO DIE, TIME TO BLOW YOU ALL SKY HIGH!!" She sang as she fired several grenades at the downed thugs, , reveling in their screams of terror as they were blown to pieces.

"Jeez... mom I think bringing her along was a bad idea." Toyman said as he maneuvered a few planes to kill some more of Black Mask's thugs.

Crawling through the vents, The Trickster smirked as she heard the carnage outside, this was it, the moment she'd dreamed of ever since her husband died. Black Mask would finally pay for what he'd done to her family...

"You mean we've lost half of our men already?!" A voice called out from under the vent.

"S-sir they..... the Trickster family or whatever..... they brought HER here!" The false facer said with utter fear dripping in his voice. "T-they brought Harley!"

"Who?!"

The Trickster arched a brow, apparently this mate had a reputation of some sort among these guys…

"T-the crazy chick! Y-you know! The one who kills families?! She's here and slaughtering EVERYONE!" He screamed. "W-what do we do!?"

"Are you kidding me?!" Black Mask scowled before snapping his fingers, immediately a figure appeared from out of the shadows, he wore what looked like a simple tuxedo, a red cape, and and red helmet that looked like half of a capsule. "Hood. Take care of the crazy bitch, I have a weapon that needs to be assembled and I won't be losing it because of some nut job dressed as a clown!"

"S-sure thing boss." Hood said as he messed with his helmet. "Er.... you sure there's no other mask I could use?"

"Are you questioning me?!"

"N-no sir!"

Trickster scowled but continued onwards to the next room. Taking a left, she saw what appeared to be the construction of some sort of vehicle.

"Hurry up will ya?!" One of the thugs snapped as a crane lowered one of the parts into place. "The longer we take the the closer those nut jobs get to killing us!"

'Oh don't worry. You won't have to worry about waiting for me.' She smirked as she dropped a small object out of the vent and onto the device...

Back outside, Mena felt like Hearts Warming had come early. Everywhere she turned there was someone to kill, a group of thugs to slaughter, she was having the time of her life!

'O-okay..... that's enough Mena. You're just killing corpses now.'

"NO!" She screamed as she pulled out her hammer. "I WANT MORE! MORE BLOOD, MORE DEATH!"

'YOU'RE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ME! LIKE WHEN MAUD USED YOU!' Pinkie shouted at her other persona. 'YOU LIED TO ME!'

“DO NOT COMPARE ME TO HER!!” She snapped, temporarily stopping her rampage. “YOU PROMISED ME A MASSECAR, AND I’M NOT DONE YET-” Before she could finish, throwing star flew past her, cutting cheek. “WHO. HAS. THE MOTHERFUCKING BALLS?!”

"That'd be me psychopath!" Red Hood shouted as he stumbled out on the field.

"OH, THIS IS GOING TO BE FUN..." Mena chuckled and she raised her hammer and charged at him, fully intent on adding him to her list of victims.

However Hood just ducked at the right opportunity and by complete accident tripped Mena and caused her to fall and bust her nose.

“Yo Pinkie! What's going on over there!?” Toyman’s voice called out from her communicator as she picked herself up off the ground.

Red Hood groaned as he stood up and dusted himself off. “Ugh, curse this helmet. Why does this thing have to be so uncomfortable?”

"I'm dealing with a dumb ass who apparently is in his first real fight! It's embarrassing!" Mena growled as she grabbed her hammer.

"Do you need one of my toys to help you?" He asked curiously. "I can send over a few helicopters..."

"Alright you!" Hood said as he got into a fighting stance. "Be prepared to feel the wrath of Red Ho- WOAH!" He screamed before leaping out of the way as she tried to smash him. "D-did you interrupt my monologue?!" Hood screamed. "Who interrupts a monologue?!"

"I DO!" She smirked as she continued to swing. "NOW HOLD STILL AND LET ME KILL YOU!!"

"Um I'd rather CONTINUE to live thank you very much!" Red Hood said as he dodged a slam from Pinkie's hammer.

"I'll… just assume you’ve got this…” Toyman mumbled as he watched insane mare she think her new target.

“Oh sweetie...” The Trickster’s voice called out. “...do you remember that virus magnet you made?”

“Yeah, what about it?” He asked as he detonated three more bomb-in-the-boxes.

“Well, I just attached it your brand new toy! Why don't you take it out for a test run?”

"Oh boy really?!" Toyman said excitedly.

"Yes honey really!" Trickster giggled. The display on his screen immediately changed, showing him the inside of the warehouse from the vehicle's perspective… with two thugs standing in front of it.

“What the…?”

“Why did it turn on?! Did you push something?!”

“You may fire when ready.” The Trickster said.

"And badaboom bitches!" Toyman said with an excited voice as he pressed the button.

"Honey? Language." Trickster said.

The vehicle's main cannon opened up and fired at one of the thugs blowing him to kingdom come. The next three thugs were cut down by the on board gatling gun and made into red mist. The last one got hit by something akin to a riot suppressor... but the fore was unbalanced and so it was fired off fast enough to snap his neck.

"Okay! The ponies are dead!"

“Good work sweetie!” The Trickster said as she drops down from the vent and immediately made my way towards the vehicle. “Quite a fine piece of work this vehicle is… shame that we can't keep it…” She mused to herself as she jumped into the driver's seat. "OK sweetie, mommy's inside. Let's tear this place apart and get what we came for!”

"Yay! Time for more fun!" Toyman said. Trickster turned the key...... but it wouldn't start. She looked at it curiously and looked......... oh sure the GUNS worked..... but there's no working engine..... or wheels.

"Well that's anticlimactic."

Suddenly one of the windows shattered as Red Hood swung through it before landing on one of the ledges up top and immediately stumbling through the door. Seconds after that, Mena burst through the same window, landing face first on the front of the car.

"Sweetie, do what you can to hack to the equipment and get that car running, I gotta help Pinkie." The Trickster sighed and she pulled out three more magnets and tossed them at the crane as she got out. "Do I even WANT to know?"

"Apparently the Red guy was sent to stop Pinkie but he's seems rather... confused with what's going on." Toyman told her. "And she seems rather.... more hostile than usual.”

"Noted, just make sure the things up and running while we take care of Black Mask, we've come too far to back down now." She said she helped Pinkie up. "You feeling alright?"

"DON'T TOUCH ME, FILTH!" Mena shouted at her. Trickster retracted quickly out of pure shock.

"Pinkie what the hell?!" The Trickster snapped as she glared at the insane mare.

'STOP! SHE'S ON OUR SIDE!' Pinkie called out in desperation. 'THIS ISN'T RIGHT!!'

"DON'T MATTER! SHE FUCKED UP!" Mena shouted as she drop kicked Trickster. "Now where's that Red Hood bastard? I want to give him a piece of my mind."

"What is your DEAL?!" Trickster yelled as she got up. "We're on the same side remember?!"

"No. PINKIE is. Me? I work for number 1. I work for ME." Mena said. "If you're in the way.... I'm going to kill you. Understood?"

Trickster took a step back, her glare sharp enough to pierce diamonds. "Have you forgotten exactly who we're here to kill?! If you want to go axe-crazy that's fine, but aim that insanity towards our REAL enemies!" She shouted, pointing at the door Red Hood escaped into.

"... you... LET HIM. GET. AWAY!?" Mena yelled at her as she bashed her head on the ground and chased after Red Hood. He wasn't going to get away. He humiliated her! Acting like he couldn't fight! Leaping down the stairs, Mena quickly kicked down the door and stormed into the room in rage. "Where are you Hoody~? It is time to die o' clock!!"

"You sure we can't just call this even?! I mean honestly I'm just doing this to pay off a debt!" He shouted from the shadows.

“Oh, well in that case I’ll let you live…”

“...really?” He asked, casually peaking out from behind one of the pillars.

“...psych! You’re the disease and I'm the cure!" She cackled before whipping out her gun and firing rapidly.

‘Please stop… this has gone on far enough…’

"What was that Pinkie? Did you just DISAGREE with ME?" Mena growled as she tried finding Red Hood again. When she did she unloaded on his location but he ducked and dodged.

'YES! YES I DID! YOU ARE GOING OUT OF BOUNDS! YOU'RE CHEATING ME!'

“I. DON’T. CARE!” She snapped as she chased after the fleeing Red Hood, following him down the stairs she eventually found herself in some sort of chemical storage room, with several catwalks over the open vats containing dangerous liquids.

However, before she could continue onward she screamed in pain and held her head. ‘ENOUGH! YOU’VE BEEN IN CONTROL LONG ENOUGH!’

"NO! DON'T YOU DA-!" Before Mena could finish the sentence she fell to the ground. Unconscious.

"Erm... did… did I win?" Red Hood asked slowly. "Cause... it doesn't feel like it."

"Ugh... give me a moment... I-I'm feeling kinda sick..." Pinkie groaned as she slowly got up. "Oh~Jeeze, damn it Mena... why'd you have to wreck my brain like that...?"

Almost immediately, an explosion rocked the entire warehouse, causing Red Hood to loose his balance as he fell over the edge of the catwalk and fell towards the chemical vat with a scream of terror.

"AAAAAAHHHH-WOAH!" He felt someone grab his leg. Looking up, he saw Pinkie holding onto him.

"Y-you.... you saved me?" Red Hood asked. "You just tried to kill me! The shit?!"

"Sorry about that!" Pinkie said as she tried pulling Red Hood up. "Wow you're heavy!"

“Seriously, why?!” Hood asked as he was pulled over the rail. “You were out for my blood not two seconds ago, and now you're saving me from… whatever those chemicals would've done?”

“Well, I can't have you stealing my gimmick.” She smiled as she took a moment to rest.

"Honestly? I don't think that's how it works." Red Hood said. "You're a nice mare. Really.... shame you have to fight Black Mask." He told her. "I'm not gonna fight you but..... just giving you a heads up. You pissed the fucker RIGHT off."

"Good." Another voice called out, the two turned to see the Trickster walking towards them. "I WANT him to know who's hurting him..."

Red Hood gulped in fear as threw down a smoke bomb. "I'm outta here!" The moment the smoke cleared, he was gone.

"Huh, nice ninja vanish-OW!" Pinkie yelped as Trickster decked her across the face.

"Hope your 'other self' felt that..." She snarked as she walked past her. "You really need some psychological help, whoever let you out of the loony bin needs their license revoked." She glared over her shoulder. "Now are you going to help me kill Black Mask or not?" She asked, casually flinging her yo-yo at the locked door, knocking the knob off.

Pinkie wiped the blood off her nose as she got up and followed her into the dark room. "Sorry about that little episode of mine..."

"So, Red Hood failed..." A familiar voice called out. Two spotlights immediately came on, one focused on Pinkie and the Trickster, and another on their target, standing on a platform above them. "With everything going on in Gothamville tonight, you two decide to waste your time with me? I'm touched! Tell me, what makes me so special?"

"My name is Trickster.... you don't need to know my real name..... but you killed my husband." She said with a growl. "Prepare to die you son of a bitch."

Black Mask simply stared at her for a few seconds. "Lady, do you have the SLIGHTEST idea how little that narrows it down?"

"Too bad, that's all you get." She retorted.

"Oh! Do I get to shoot him now?!" Pinkie asked as she aimed at him. "I wanna shoot him so bad now!"

“You can try… but this class is bulletproof! Also…” Black Mask scoffed before snapping his fingers, immediately all the lights came on, feeling that they were surrounded by several of his thugs, all of them with guns aimed at the two. “...I've got the numbers here, which means I've got the advantage!” He gloated before turning his attention to his men. “First one to kill them and gets payed whatever they want. Make them suffer and I'll double it!”

"Should've thought of a better plan before leaving the car open for taking!" Pinkie shouted.

"The car? What...... OH YOU LITTLE.... CHECK THE VEHICLE! BASTARDS PROBABLY TAMPERED WITH IT!"

"Oh my son did more than tamper with it..." The Trickster smirked as as another explosion shook the warehouse. "By the way boys, you might want to duck!" She said before tackling Pinkie to the ground.

Immediately the car burst through the wall behind them, flying over the two and crashing into several thugs, killing them instantly, Wall the shelves were distracted trying to escape the car immediately backed up towards the two, the back of it opening up to reveal a containment unit with two seats.

"Hop in!" Toyman shouted as he fired the vulcan gun relentlessly, gunning down as many thugs as he could.

"WHOO!" Pinkie shouted as she got into the car with Toyman. "THIS IS AWESOME! OH! USE THE CANON!"

"Ask and you shall receive!" He smiled before slamming his hand on a button. Immediately the main cannon fired at several of the thugs trying to escape. The vehicle then shifted as its wheels extended outward and it immediately spun around, having entered it's tank mode. The back of it quickly opened up, allowing the two to get out and enter the door leading to the main office.

"I saw Black mask flee the moment he saw the car, you guys take him down while I finish gunning these bastards down!" Toyman shouted as he continued his chaotic rampage.

"Yes..... let's end this." Trickster said as she readied.... a snot nosed looking gun.

"Um.... what's that gonna do?" Pinkie asked. "It doesn't look very..... sane."

"You're one to talk, Ms. split-personality." She scoffed as she kicked open the door leading to his office... only to find it completely empty. "What the-where is he?! She screamed as she immediately started searching the area.

"Pssst"

Pinkie turned around to see Mena casually leaning next to a bookcase. Saying nothing, she simply pointed to the book on the top right corner and winked.

"Hm..... I got a small theory." Pinkie said as she leaped up and grabbed the book that Mena pointed out.

"Wait what are you-"

The bookcase slid to the side, revealing a staircase leading downwards. "Ta-dah!"

".... you know I'm not even gonna argue with this logic." Trickster said as she and Pinkie ran down the stairs.

Right after they left, Toyman entered the room. "Hey mom! They're all dead! Did you catch that son of a-" He stopped and stared at the staircase. "Well, lamest secret tunnel ever..." He snarked before approaching the desk and turned on the computer, pulling out a USB stick and plugging it in.

"Uploading virus..." He whispered as he began hacking into Black Mask's system. "Aaaaand transfer!" He smirked, transferring his millions out of his accounts and into his family's own personal bank account.

"So where do ya think Masky is at?" Pinkie asked Trickster who was surprisingly silent at the moment.

"I don't know. Right now I don't care. I finally have him cornered and he won't get away this time." Trickster growled. Pinkie just shrugged as the two continued their run.

"How many damn stairs does this asshole have?"

As they ran another explosion shook the warehouse. “We have to find him and kill him quickly! Pretty sure your son's little rampage blew up a lot of those chemical vats!”

"Should've kept better damn care of them." Trickster growled as they finally reached the bottom.

"FINALLY! Thought they'd never end." Pinkie gasped.

The sound of wheels screeching caught their ears and they entered the room just in time to see a car headed for the exit. "Oh no you don't!" The Trickster shouted as she threw her playing cards at the back tires, which exploded on impact and caused the car to swerve out of control.

Pinkie then swung her hammer with all her might and sent it flying towards the top of the garage door, the built-in rocket increasing it's spinning velocity. She smirked as the garage door collapsed right on top of the car's engine.

"You snooze you lose!" Pinkie said as she opened the passenger door..... and was greeted by having a gun pointed right at face. "Oh.... well this complicates things quite a bit."

He would've fired right then and there... only for his gun, along with the rest of his arm to be engulfed in some green fluid. He immediately screamed in pain as he saw his arm melted away. "You bitch!" He shouted before Trickster decked him across the face and yanked him out of the car.

"Whoa.... wait why didn't you use the acid boogers sooner?" She asked Trickster only for her to ignore Pinkie. She then pushed Black Mask to the floor.

"You have... NO IDEA how long I've waited for this moment." She said as she leveled her gun at him. "I was patient.... I hoped and hoped I could one day get you,.... and now I have. And guess who's gonna die tonight?"

Black Mask tried to back away, fear now evident in his eyes, only for Pinkie to slam her hammer on to his left me, earning a scream of pain from him. The Trickster then sprayed acid onto his right leg, getting another pain-filled scream out of him as he watched his leg melt away.

"Wait! Please!" He pleaded, you don't need to do this. I'll give you money. Drugs! Guns! Weapons! Whatever you want, please!"

"Aw, how cute, he's begging." Toyman said as he was carried into the room by his toy helicopters. "We couldn't care less about the drugs, guns, or weapons, and as for the money? I already transferred every last bit of it to our little private account."

"Please.... please don't kill me." Black Mask begged from them. "You just...... please I'm sorry!"

"Sorry? SORRY?? YOU'RE FUCKING SORRY?!"

Pinkie blinked as she watched Toyman approach him with an absolutely livid look on his face. "SORRY FOR WHAT?! FOR KILLING MY DAD IN COLD BLOOD?! FOR GETTING HIS FACTORY SHUT DOWN JUST BECAUSE HE WOULDN'T LET IT BE A FRONT FOR YOUR DRUG SMUGGLERS?! FOR FORCING US OUT ONTO THE STREETS?! MY MOM AND I LOST EVERYTHING BECAUSE OF YOU!!" He screamed as he pulled out a toy gun and aimed it at his head. "And now... we're gonna take it all back..." He smirked as pulled the trigger... only for a small flag with the word BANG written on it to come out.

Black Mask looked at the small gun.... and started to laugh. "You don't understand... I'm sorry.... I won't see you morons die." Black Mask chuckled as he coughed some blood.

The Toyman simply smirked... and pulled the trigger a second time, firing the flag right into his remaining, earning another scream of pain.

The Trickster arched a brow, but before she could say anything her son pulled a rose out of his jacket and casually dropped it on his chest. "At least you'll go out with a smile... no matter how much pain you're in..." He said as the flower immediately start expelling green gas… laughing gas.

His mother smiled in pride before spraying his last remaining arm and leg with acid. As they slowly melted away, Black Mask was forced into an insane fit of laughter by the gas, despite the agonizing pain he was in.

"Huh.... wonder what he meant by watching us....oh damn he planted bombs." Pinkie said and at that moment they all started hearing explosions throughout the building.

“Kinda pointless considering we’ve already obliterated half of this place…” Trickster said as her son started typing in some commands. In a few seconds, the car they'd taken control of burst through the rubble blocking the way out.

“Could you two kindly get into the backseat? I'd rather live in enjoy our fortune, thank you!” He said as he ran towards the driver seat.

"Adorable but you're not driving this time sweetheart." Trickster said as she hopped into the front seat. Toyman looked irritated when he got in the backseat next to Pinkie. "I'll get us out of here in no time!"

Hitting the gas, they quickly sped up the spiral ramp out of the warehouse just as it finally started to collapse in on itself as the bombs and it's chemical room exploded, causing the entire place to go up in flames.

If there was anyone still alive in that warehouse, there was no hope for them now.

"-and says that a whale was the one that saved.... wait breaking news." The reporter on TV said. "Yes breaking news from Trottham City of all places. Crime Lord Black Mask and his False Facers have been found and confirmed.... killed at what seems to be a deal gone bad. We won't confirm the carnage but it bears a very striking similarity to the infamous 'Joker Killer' that had been plaguing the city before vanishing several months ago after escaping from Arkham-"

"And that's enough to know she did her job."

"What job?" Fluttershy asked as she walked into the conference room, groaning as she rubbed her head in pain. "Stupid, arrogant, scientist..."

"What's got you so pissy?" Rainbow asked her. "Either way, I sent Pinkie to kill Black Mask."

“Some asshole calling himself ‘Dr. Light’-wait, WHAT?!” She blinked, realizing what she just heard. Looking up at the TV as the reporter continued.

“We repeat. The Joker has apparently slaughtered all of Black Mask's goons and even Mask himself. Details are scarce on if this is just the only murder or if the 'Family Slayer' will finally turn over a new leaf. More at a Eleven." The reporter said as the program went to a commercial.

Fluttershy was dumbstruck, the mare with severe mental issues had somehow managed to take out an entire gang in their boss!?

Before she could say anything, Pinkie happily skipped into the room with a bright smile on her face. “Hey Brainy Dash, hi-GAH!” She screamed upon seeing Fluttershy without her mask and immediately covered her eyes. “I DIDN’T SEE ANYTHING, I DIDN’T SEE ANYTHING~”

"Oh for the love of... IT'S ON PINKIE!" Fluttershy said as she pulled her mask back over her face. "THERE! YOU HAPPY NOW?!"

“Not as happy as you'll be~!” Pinkie squeed as she strolled over to Batmare. “I got a new ride in some cool gadgets that I've been dying to show you!”

"..... Pinkie what did you take?" Fluttershy said with a tone like a mother scolding a child for taking something that didn't belong to them.

"Oh, nothing much... just a car the False Facers stole... and several gadgets that'll actually make me a lot more useful to the team! Com'on! Lemme show you!" She giggled as she dragged her downstairs, with RD followed close behind just to humor her.

Once they reached the garage, what they saw shocked them:

The car was painted white with green and purple in the back, had large gloved hands above the front wheels, spiked wheels that resembled saw blades, a boutonnière on the end of the Vulcan gun, and the front looked like a clown's smile, complete with teeth and a tongue.

"I call it 'The Killing Joke'! What do you think?"

"..... I think you should trash it." Rainbow said. "This thing looks.... impossible to drive correctly."

“Says you!” She retorted. “I mean, I managed to get it in here didn't I? And you wouldn't believe the firepower this thing can pack!” She smiled as she skipped towards the back and open it to reveal several gag props falling out. “And that's not even getting into all the cool gadgets I managed to snag! I've got exploding sharp-toothed wind-up teeth, Jack-in-the-Boxes with bombs, exploding whoopee cushions, squirting flowers with acid instead of water, a rocket-powered hammer, sharp-edged exploding playing cards, spiked yo-yo’s…”

"....she's your sidekick Fluttershy." Rainbow said as she turned and started walking out. "I'm not getting in the middle of this."

“... and I even got this cannon that shoots out spiked boxing-gloves, cyanide pies, and confetti laced with acid!” She smiled as she turned to face Batmare. “ so? Are you proud of me?!" She asked, giving her the most heart-melting puppy dog eyes.

"Um.....y-yes?" Fluttershy stammered. This was beyond weird to her that she just didn't know how to respond.

"YAY!" She smiled as she gave her a bone-crushing hug. "You're so good to me Batsy~!" She then tilted her head to the side and gestured to her neck. "You look kind of thirsty, wanna drink?"

".....sure, why not." She shrugged before extending her fangs and biting into her flesh, trying her best to ignore her sidekicks moans of pleasure.

As the sun rose over the horizon, a car speed across the freeway away from Trottham, and away from their old life…

“Can't say I'm gonna miss Trottham…” Button Mash said as he gazed out the window.

Elaina sighed as she checked the rearview mirror, watching their old home get smaller and smaller behind them. "So, where should we go?”

"Hm..... I hear Central City's safer. Let's try that." Button said. As they drove off however, a thunderstorm brewed, and just as they crossed the bridge lightning struck a metal pole.

Unknown to either of them, watching them from up above were two glowing red eyes. Then just as quickly as it appeared, the figure vanished in the flash...
