Birds v Sirens Pt. 5

You and Huntress crashed through the window only to be met with a very large hammer in the face. The two of you rolled to a halt before you looked up to see the three Sirens staring you down.

Harley: Can you keep it down please?!

She rushed at you again and on instinct you jumped on top of Huntress just as Harley's hammer slammed into your ribs sending you across the room. You landed and flew towards Harley only for your arms and legs to be grabbed by vines and forced against the wall. Huntress was restrained as well leaving the three of you at the mercy of the Sirens who were now looking at the two fo you with intrest.

Catwoman: So there's another Batman? This is, confusing.

Harley: Are the two of you dating or somethin?

Ivy: Not everyone working together are dating Harley dear.

Catwoman took a closer look at you just as you hear something that made your eyes widen. A, baby crying? Harley looked worried as she rushed into the other room and returned with a blonde baby in her arms.

Harley: You were so loud ya woke my baby ya asshole.

You and Huntress looked at each other in shock.

Y/N: You have a kid?! Wait a sec. That make sense now that I think about it.

The three looked at you and you sighed.

Y/N: Future Batman.

They all nodded in understanding.

Ivy: The girls did say you were here as well.

You looked at the kid and smiled a bit. This was the Twin's mother.

Y/N: Emma?

Harley nodded as she planted a soft kiss on her head. You had secretly slid a batarang out from your wrist and began to cut through the vines before finally freeing your right arm. Before Ivy could react, you used your boots to completely free yourself and took a defensive stance in front of Huntress.

Y/N: So, I was always curious. Is that the Joker's kid?

Harley looked at you with eyes of hatred. It was as if you had offended her.

???: No, she's mine.

The batarang was shot out of your hand by the new presence in the room. Your eyes fell on him.

Y/N: Deadshot?! What the hell?!

You were honestly surprised. Deadshot was the twin's grandpa? Him and Harley had.....that's just down right disturbing.

Deadshot: Yeah. She's my daughter. Speaking of which,

He pointed the gun at you.

Deadshot: Where's my granddaughters?

You shrugged.

Y/N: Tied them up downstairs.

Just then, Huntress broke loose and readyed herself. Everyone looked ready to fight save for Harley who was still holding the child.

Y/N: Ok, time out. Everyone just calm down. There's a kid here.

Ivy seemed to hesitate while Catwoman simply sighed. You lowered your guard to show that you trusted them and they did the same save for Huntress.

Huntress: What are you doing?

You looked to Harley and sighed.

Y/N: This is why you've been doing these jobs. Money.

Ivy nodded.

Ivy: We want out but we're wanted criminals. We have to have some kind of way to live.

You nodded in understanding.

Y/N: I see. The Sirens want to go straight. At least, Harley and Ivy do.

You looked to Catwoman.

Y/N: Doubt you're enthusiastic about this plan.

Catwoman: I'm helping my friends. What more could I want?

You shrugged.

Huntress: You're joking. What are you going to do after you leave Gotham? Go to the Bahamas? Hide in Mexico? You'll be recognized everywhere.

Deadshot: I have connections that will keep them safe. Keep them hidden.

Huntress looked very conflicted. You noticed this and gave a soft smile.

Y/N: It's ok. They aren't lying. Harley really does go straight. She and Ivy will get married and raise Emma to be a good person.

Everyone looked at you surprised.

Huntress: Harley and Ivy are...

Ivy: How did you know?

You rolled your eyes.

Harley: Future, right. Keep forgetting that part.

You walked over to Huntress and placed a gentle hand on her shoulder.

Y/N: Come on. There's nothing left for us to do here.

Huntress looked at you in surprise, anger, and understanding.

Huntress: Yeah. If what you said is true, then we should go.

You turned back to Harley who was smiling with tears in her eyes.

Harley: I don't understand.

Catwoman: Yeah. No way the bat is this nice.

You simply smiled.

Y/N: Sometimes being the hero means helping those you least expect. Good luck on your new lives.

You turned to Catwoman and Deadshot.

Y/N: And I'll see you again eventually I'm sure.

You grabbed Huntress and walked out of the room. This wasn't your story anymore, it was theirs. Whatever they do next is up to them.---------Barbara: To taking down the Scarecrow operation and stopping the Sirens!

Everyone: Cheers!

You were back at the Bird's HQ, the nest you kept jokingly called it, celebrating the success of the mission. You decided not to tell the team about Harley and the child instead telling them that they were no longer operating in Gotham. You and Helena shared a knowing glance and a smirk. The New Sirens were gone when you went back to look for them so they were still on the loose but no one knew about them except for you and Helena. A secret between two people.

Canary: Seems like you two had gotten closer. When's the wedding?

You noticed the heavy smell of booze on her and turned away blushing.

Helena: W-what are you talking about?! I hate this prick!

Y/N: Yeah, well, you're not exactly miss daisy yourself!

Helena: Ape!

Y/N: Brute!

Helena: Moron!

Y/N: Egghead!

Helena: Mistake!

Y/N: Disappointment!

The two of you continued to go back in forth in, kind of friendly banter while the others watched, drunk and amused. Of course you and Helena couldn't drink so you were mostly left out but soon enough you could feel sleep coming over you. You ended up falling asleep on the couch with Helena leaning on you while Dinah giggled to herself.

Barbara: What's so funny?

Dinah: Nothing. Just weird seeing her act like a kid.

Barbara looked at the two of you before taking a picture on her phone.

Barbara: Blackmail material for sure.

Dinah laughed. Morning soon came and you had to say your goodbyes to the Birds. For now at least. You offered your aid if they ever needed it again and they seemed very glad to take you up on that offer.

Dinah: Swing by to visit whenever you'd like. Someone is always here.

Blackbird: Yes! I'll make biscuits and tea.

Barbara: I'll see you back at the cave later. Just some stuff to do here and there.

Everyone walked back inside except for Helena who was staring at the ground. Feeling awkward, you rubbed the back of your neck.

Y/N: So, um, thanks for the help. I don't think I could've handled the New Sirens on my own.

Helena smirked.

Helena: Of course not.

The two of you chuckled a bit before your turned back towards the city.

Helena: Can I ask for a favor?

You turned back to see the girl, a year older, blushing.

Y/N: What's up?

She took a deep breath and slowly let it out.

Helena: Could you, do that thing again?

You looked at her confused.

Y/N: What thing?

Helena lifted her arms up and you got the message. She wanted a hug. You smiled and stepped into it. The two of you embraced each other in a nice, loving warmth.
