Chapter Text
Starro: I was happy, floating
Seeing the stars-said the last words of him the alien clinging to General Suarez to fall dead along with all the people who swindle clinging to the extensions
Everything for Bloodsport was silent, until he turns to Starro and sees how Harley comes out of the eye with the Javelin and Sebastian.
He sees how the aforementioned comes out of the alien covered with whatever that eye is composed of and she gives him a thumbs up, confirming that everything is over
He does the same to respond, but before he can do anything
hear someone scream
Cleo: ABNER!
The rat girl runs to the wounded and bloodied body of her teammate
Abner, after throwing the polka dots at Starro, the creature proceeded to crush him, but his polka dots surrounded him before one of his legs reached him.
They managed to save him, but did not prevent injuries
Cleo: Wake up Abner!
Please don't die too
Robert: He's unconscious, I'll take him to the helicopter-he says to go where Harley is and communicate with Waller
The girl looks up and sees her shark companion approaching.
Cleo: Nanaue! - says the girl running to hug Shark
But behind them DuBois was talking to Waller to negotiate
Robert: Yes, yes.
It's just a sample of what's on the disc. I linked them all to a secure server
If you kill any of us or my daughter ever ends up in prison it will be made public. If they let us all go free, it never has to come to light.
Waller: I told you I'd make you a DuBois leader.
Deal done - answer to hang up and look at your team
Robert drops the communicator and looks at Harley and sees that she has a sad look on her face.
Robert: I know Flag wanted to give the record to the press, but we just saved an entire country.
not everything can
Harley: Flag was my friend.
Robert: And mine.
And I don't have many of those
Harls: I can be your friend Milton
Robert: That's not my name.
Harls: But we had a great talk about your name being Milton.
Robert: Not true.
Now I'll pick you up carefully - he bends down to pick up Abner carefully
Transportation has arrived!
Nanaue: Ñom Ñom - pointing to a body
Robert: Really?
Is that all you think about right now?
Nanaue: Nou
That's ñom ñom - pointing to another body
Cleo: No, that's not ñom ñom
Shark was going to point to another body but-
Robert: NO!
-Play So Busted-
Our protagonists approach the landing helicopter and Robert gently places Abner in one of the seats and secures him so he doesn't get hurt.
Cleo sits next to him and doesn't stop stroking his head.
Briscoe: Go from more than 10 only 5 returned
God was compassionate with you
We take off in 10
Robert just looks around and how he got to where he is.
In front of him is a giant shark that tries to be distracted by the first thing it sees
Next to him is a girl who manipulates rats and a very injured boy who throws moles as ridiculous as it may seem, but at the end of the day they are very dangerous
And next to him the great acquaintance of Gotham, Harley Quinn
Ex of the Joker who knows if he has already found his purpose in life with that javelin
Although he gives her a smile, he knows that he is sad inside.
In that he notices how something is on his legs and it was none other than Sebastián who had placed himself on his leg to take a nap
Robert: Easy, DuBois, easy.
You just defeated a giant starfish, you can top this
Slowly the man reaches his trembling hand to the rodent and caresses it
Sebastián accepts the affection and in this way he tells Robert that he will not hurt him
The man, already calmer with the rat on his leg, just lets out a big sigh and waits to get to Belle Reve to continue with the negotiations, although first they will have to go to the emergency room.
*At the hospital*
Get him to the ER fast!
He has lost a lot of blood and has several broken bones!
What is that costume?
That doesn't matter now, get him to a room fast!
That and many more cries were heard in the hospital that our protagonists moved quickly on the recommendation of Briscoe
As Cleo stood near the door where Abner had been transferred
Harley was sitting in one of the waiting seats with a wistful look on her face.
And Nanaue, well, who knows where she was, let's just hope she doesn't eat anyone
Nurse: Um, miss.
Cleo: Dipper, Cleo Dipper
Nurse: Miss Saucepan, you have to leave this area please.
It is a restricted area, in addition to that we must also check your wounds and if you have other injuries
Cleo: I'm fine, thanks
Nurse: You feel good because of the adrenaline, but when the effect wears off it will hurt.
Please join me in doing your analysis.
Cleo: But-
Robert: Go Cleo, you better get well after everything that happened
In addition, Abner also needs to recover and she will be in bed for a long time.
I take care of it while your wounds heal
Nurse: Follow me miss and if she wants she also wants she can take Mickey Mouse
Cleo: His name is Sebastian.
Nurse: Thank God-he leaves with Cleo and they get lost in the corridors
Robert lets out a big sigh and goes to sit where Harley is.
Why that face?
Harls: It's nothing.
Robert: Yeah sure, nothing.
Harls: I just don't know what's next for me anymore.
My boyfriend psychologically abused me and dumped me when he no longer needed me
my best friend is missing
And my one of my close friends is dead and his body is in South America.
What else can I do now?
Robert: I know how it feels.
that you lose someone dear
That you feel that you are not useful to others
But I think they wouldn't have wanted you to not do something about it.
Flag would be denying that you find yourself that way
Harls: Yes, you know him well.
Robert: We were partners in various missions outside of Special Forces X
But now with the last thing that happened, you have 2 options
1. Either you keep hurting yourself and disappointing the ones you love most so Waller can blow your head off.
2. Either you are strong and you get up and keep looking for a new purpose in your life.
That javelin is a start like you said
May his death not be in vain and may he only stay in Corto Maltese
You are strong Quinn, you are one of the most recognizable villains in Gotham
I know you can get over this
Harls: Thanks Milton.
Rob: *sigh*
If you keep this up, I'll kill you myself.
My name is Robert DuBois.
ROBERT DUBOIS!
SHIT
Harls: Excuse me, excuse me.
you never told me your real name
You just said: "Bloodsport"-she said imitating him
Robert: It's killer code.
Harls: But now we're opening up. So it's your fault
Rob: ...
Just forget it, minus my name
Harls: Got it, Mil-Robert.
Robert: Okay, excuse me - retiring
Harls: Where are you going?
They didn't even check your wounds
Robert: I have 2 things to attend to.
But one I have to finish a deal
See you at the restaurant we saw a few streets back at 7 at night
Tell Cleo about the meeting
I don't think Abner will wake up today
And do you know where the hell Nanaue got to? - turns looking at Harley and she just shakes her head in denial
Robert: We'll deal with that later, I'll be back in a few hours.
DuBois heads to a bathroom to change out of his suit into something more formal, though he did have a couple of guns stashed just in case.
He leaves the hospital and calls a taxi and heads towards Belle Reve
Taxi driver: It's 10 dollars
Robert: Here, I always keep some cash.
Arriving and being noticed by the guards, he tells them that he won't do anything and that he has a meeting with Waller.
The moment the guards were confirmed, they took DuBois to a private room to wait for the main person in charge of everything.
Waller: What do you want to talk about?
Robert: I want to clarify a couple of things Waller
Waller: What kind of little game is this?
Robert: It's no game, remember the deal we have
And I just want to add a couple of things
