77 Oblivion Bar (3)

*Supes_POV*

Zatanna's magic act was forty minutes long and I didn't even blink once, she looked so dazzling up there on the stage. As the act ended I stood up and applauded so did many in the bar.

She came straight to me from the backstage, "How was it?", she asked, hugging me.

"It was magical Zee, I couldn't move my eyes away from you even for a second", I said making her smile, "maybe you wear the same dress tonight, while I stay at your house"

"Hmm ... maybe", she said, giving me a light peck while tracing her finger on my chest.

"Why don't you introduce me to your friends, Zee", I said looking at the corner. Zatanna looks over, knowing who I was talking about, she goes to that corner bringing me with her.

"That was a wonderful performance, Zatanna", The man in blue skinsuit said while nodding at her with a smile.

"Well she is Zatara's daughter, what did you expect … So who is your friend over here Zatanna?" The chimp said, pouring whisky in a glass.

"He is my boyfriend, You can call him, umm … Superman. We trained together under my father" Zatanna said, hugging me by my arm.

"Welcome to The Oblivion bar, it's a place where anyone skilled in magic can come and drink or take a rest. And I am Nightmaster, it's proprietor" The man said while offering me a handshake.

I shake his hand with a smile while looking at his sword, "It's an honor to meet the wielder of the Sword of Night and the protector of Myrra … by the way I have an almost similar looking costume back at home", I then look at the chimpanzee in clothes.

"I am Bobo, the chimp, and a part-time detective … It's weird how we never heard about someone as powerful as you, what did you do to Nick anyway?", he asks while I shake the hairy hand of the chimp.

"I could have handled myself easily, but he is the jealous type", Zatanna says looking at me in mock anger.

I shake my head helplessly, "Did someone tell you, you dress exactly like Sherlock Holmes", I ask the chimp, making him smile.

"Yeah, I met him long ago in my starting days and am trying to imitate him ever since. I don't even know where he is now, he must be over 100 if he is even alive … well you didn't answer my question"

"I sent Nick to a garbage can in Gotham where he will stay for a day thinking about his life", I said with a chuckle.

"I think he deserved it", a girl in green says while walking here from a nearby table.

Just then another girl comes towards this direction wearing a black eye mask, "I would say he deserved worse"

The green-clothed girl ignores everyone and extends her hand to me, "You can call me Enchantress … And I must say that you have a very impressive amount of magic reserves, one of the largest I have ever felt"

I shake her hand while looking her over. She had straight red hair and green eyes. She was wearing a green skinsuit that tightly hugged her body with black over the knee boots. She had a green headscarf attached to her green long cape.

"Blonde hair suits you better", I tell her while shaking her hand. Hearing my words, Enchantress looks at me stunned with her eyes wide, while Zatanna gives me a weird look.

"I am Nightshade", says the girl with the black eye mask while extending her hand. She was wearing a black and purple dress with a skirt. She had black hair and blue eyes.

I take her hand in mine and bow a little while placing a kiss on the back of her hand, "It's a pleasure to meet the princess of the Land of Nightshades", Zatanna raises her eyebrow at my antics.

Nightshade blushes a little by such a formal greeting but then takes her hand back in sadness, "There is no kingdom now. I am the only one left"

"You seem to know an awful lot about things, Superman ����� maybe you can help them with their troubles", Bobo said finishing his glass of whiskey.

Hearing Bobo, both Nightshade and Enchantress look at me with hope but then they look away knowing that we have just met and it would be too soon to ask for any favors.

I snap my fingers, teleporting two empty sofas in this corner, and sit in one with Zatanna, "Let's just have a fun time for now", I gesture both the girls to sit.

"Let me join the party too!" Says a man bringing his stool over. He was wearing a green torn cloak with a hood and his whole body including his face was covered in a suit that looked like numerous tattered clothes stitched together.

"I am Ragman, but friends call me Rory", as I shake his hand, I feel something trying to connect to my soul, knowing what it is I block the connection.

"The owner of the suit of souls, your suit senses and absorbs the evil souls, every rag on it is a soul absorbed, truly a powerful artifact as well as a very heavy responsibility", Ragman hearing my words nods his head in seriousness.

"It truly is a heavy responsibility … that's why I am still single", He says, eyeing the girls.

"I don't think you will ever feel lonely, with all those dead souls keeping you company", I said making everyone laugh aloud and Ragman slumps on his stool depressed at how true it is.

We spent our time drinking and laughing, while Nightmaster and Bobo told us interesting stories about their adventures.

Zatanna was snuggling happily against me, glad that I was getting along so well with her friend group, even though she was teasing me mentally of how the two ladies had still eyes on me the entire time.

I enjoyed my time too as this would be my future Justice League Dark.
