A New Recruit?

I smile at Jason as I pat Nightwing's back, "You know, I have a servant who can heal him, let me see if she is available."

Waving my hand a wall of Darkness opens up next to me, "Why do I feel a connection to that?" Nightwing asks trying to peer inside the darkness.

"Ah because I connected you to my Hell of Nocturne to give you your darkness control powers."

Before I can continue a woman coated in dark flames rather than clothes speps through the dark portal. I hear a whistle in front of me, looking up I see Jason giving me a 'niceeee' look. I am a bit confused why he is attracted to a figure of fire but I won't judge.

She nods he head to me, "What do you need Lucifer?"

"You can heal, right? Heal that boy for me, would you, Soulsinger?"

"Of course." The flames covering her body fade revealing that she is in fact wearing clothes. She looks just like the old June Moone except her hair is now black and she is wearing a distinctly large amount of green clothing.

"Sit against the bars please." She says gesturing at the railing.

"Yesss, ma'am," Jason happily following orders.

I side-eye Nightwing who only shakes his head, "Is he always like this?"

He shakes his head, "Yeah, yeah he is."

"I can hear you," Jason says only briefly turning to just before smiling back at Soulsinger.

Soulsinger smiles at him as darkness covers her hands, "Sorry kid, I'm a lot older than you."

As the wounds across Jason's body begin to mend together he smirks, "Age is nothing but a number."

She laughs a bit at his words, "That's a lot more true for an immortal like me than a normal person like you."

Jason shrugs, "So, what do you do? Just serve him, doing hell stuff?"

"No, I'm an Archeologist, but I work for a defense contractor run by one of Lucifer's wives. Working in hell is rare, it's just whenever Ruby needs me."

I am a bit baffled at their interactions, Soulsinger may have a good figure but she isn't very attractive… Is it power that he likes? Age?

Morbius's voice from below breaks me from my thoughts, "I hate to break the mood but can we get going? Cops will be here soon."

I wave off his words as I lean against the bars looking down at him, "Let them flirt, I can just turn the cops away if they come."

Looking back at Soulsinger who is healing Jason I see her giving me a glare, "Why do you all glare at me? Do you forget I'm your boss? Do you want a pay cut?"

She quickly looks back down at Jason, "No my King."

I roll my eyes as I turn back to Nightwing, "Uhuh."

"I never got to ask, what do you want me to do as your, Hellknight?" Nightwing asks leaning on the bars across from me.

"Nothing special really, just take care of bad people as you see fit. But if I ask you to come with me or to take care of an evil person you get on it."

Nightwing crosses his arms as he nods, "That's a pretty cheap price honestly…"

Jason turns around with an odd gaze, "You really signed a deal with the devil, for me?"

Nightwing grunts, "Don't make it more emotional than it needs to be."

Jason smirks, "You're the one who cried."

Rubbing his eyes he grunts, "I wish you would forget that."

"Not a chance in hell," He points a finger gun at me hitting his joke home.

I smirk a bit, "Quite the sense of humor for someone who just got out of a traumatic experience."

"Hey, so I don't have anywhere to go now, got a place I can crash for now?"

Before I can answer Soulsinger speaks up, "I got a place downtown if you don't have anywhere."

My brows raise as I meet her eyes, she looks away as her face flushes, "I can't believe a powerful servant of hell is being sweet-talked by a seventeen-year-old."

Nightwing rolls his eyes, "You can come to titans tower if you want as well, we have a few spare rooms."

"What about me?" Doctor Morbius asks easily jumping up to the second story landing next to me.

"You're coming to the tower with me, I'll have Starfire set up a room for you."

Doctor Morbius sighs as he leans against the bars, "What an odd day it's been."

I shrug, "This is every day for me. I'm sure you'll get along well with the titans, they are good kids."

He grunts at my words, "They are still kids, and now he's my boss against my will."

"Don't pretend like you didn't have a choice," I say with a smirk.

"And I'm not a kid, I turn twenty in a few months."

Pulling a business card out of my pocket I hand it to Jason, "It's my wife's contract firm, the one she works at. Give her a call if you want a job, or give me a call if you want to sign a contract and get powers like your friend."

"HE WILL DO NO SUCH THING!" I ignore Nightwings words as I smile at Jason.

He takes the card with a smirk, "I'll think about it, thanks."

"Speaking of the titans," I turn back to Nightwing, "Raven never signed the contract, where is she?"

Nightwing sighs, "She isn't on earth, she went off somewhere to train."

I nod, "I trust she will follow through with her promise, I will come to meet her when I get back."

Looking at my watch I see that it is already four am already, "I would like to get home before my wives wake so I will get you all home quickly."

Jason gives me an odd look, "What do you me-"

I cut him off as I grab his and Soulsinger's shoulder bringing them to her apartment in Gotham. As we appear I notice it is much nicer than it used to be, the furniture is far nicer than it used to be and the floors are now a well-laid wood.

"Nice place." I say before vanishing again.

Appearing again between the confused Nightwing and Doctor I grab their shoulders. This time I let them off in front of the new and improved titans tower. The tower looks just like before except slightly larger with darker windows.

"If you need me you can pray to me, or just call me, your choice."

Nightwing nods, "Thanks for bringing us back, I didn't want to stay in Gotham for another minute."

"Where are we?" Morbius asks a bit jarred.

"San Francisco," I say gesturing to the golden gate bridge.

He grunts as he rubs his head, "What the fuck."

"Good luck," I say vanishing again.

I appear once again in the living room of my penthouse, it's fairly dark as only the kitchen light is on. Seeing as it's been a few weeks since I have slept I head to the bedroom to lay down with Tandy until she wakes up.
