Chapter-Seventy Eight: The Twelve Days of Christmas Part Four.

Chapter-Seventy Eight: The Twelve Days of Christmas Part Four.

At first glance, the man looked like an unassuming everyday businessman but that was just merely at the first the glance. When a person took a closer look, one could notice that he had a fair number of tattoos running up his arms quite clearly. Anyone who was in the know would not mistake who he was and those tattoos clearly marked him as a member of the Russian Mafia.

The Russian Mafia had been working loosely with Penguin although that was the extent of their presence in Gotham City.

This particular gentleman on the other hand was tied up to a metal chair in an abandoned bathhouse. At least the white tiled floors, walls, and the drains on the floor underneath him, along with the multiple showerheads indicated that.

He wondered what the reason for this was. That was the only thought that had a chance to go through his had before a wooden baseball bat cracked against the back of the guy's skull. He gave a wounded howl.

Big Lou stood behind him in a towering fury. After his encounter with Catwoman, he was looking for someone to take his aggressions out on. This man just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. He dressed in a pair of slacks and a white beater, and looked to keep himself in pretty good shape for an older gentleman. That was beside the point though; he was beyond pissed off about what happened to him earlier.

He needed to take out that aggression on someone. This poor unfortunate soul was just the nearest outlet for that aggression.

Zucco and Eddie Skeevers stood off to the side. Zucco looked like he was in a towering temper as well but Skeevers looked fairly indifferent to the entire mess.

Big Lou slammed his knuckles into the face. "And people like you just don't get it. The Russian mob isn't allowed in Gotham City. There are rules, there are limits, and there are certain things that the mob won't do. But the Russians, you have no limits, do you? You don't belong in this city, you don't belong in our city."

Zucco watched with widened eyes when Big Lou pounded the ever living snot out of this guy. He came precious short inches of killing the man. He pulled back at the last second.

"You're not worth dirtying my knuckles with your blood," Big Lou whispered. He turned to one of the lackeys. "Drop him off outside of town."

The man responded with a large gulp. "Um sure thing boss."

The beaten and battered Russian mobster was taken off. Big Lou watched the trash being disposed handily before he turned towards Zuccos and Skeevers.

"Five hundred thousand to the person who brings me the bitch's body," Big Lou spat. He was in a nasty towering temper. "And one million if they bring me back her alive so I can personally deadl with her."

Zucco and Skeevers knew one thing. Either way, that bitch was dead.

Back in the Lair, Harry was trying, potentially in vain, to make sense of the extremely weird dream. In the meantime, he got ahold of Kara over the bond and asked her to come down here. The two of them sat in the area around the super computer. Harry was sitting in the computer chair while Kara parked enticingly on the counter.

"So, I think that I've got this idea as to how to capture the Calendar Killer," Harry remarked. His green eyes met Kara's vibrant blue eyes. The two of them stared each other down for a couple of seconds. "But there's just one problem…"

"You don't know how to get to the next step, do you?" Kara asked.

Harry smiled. "You got that much right. And I'm going to need your help. And I'm going to need you to show me what you showed Amanda. When I tried to do it myself, it was a bit trickier than I thought it was."

Kara laughed. "Well it's not like it's something that someone can figure out when they're just randomly fucking around on the phone. It requires some extremely specific steps to do so."

There were a couple of questions that went through Harry's mind. He settled with going for the most obvious.

"Exactly where did you learn to do that?" Harry asked.

Kara pondered the best way to answer that for a brief second. "The OS the Red Sun uses is something my mother developed when she was four. It's literally something that a pre-school child on Krypton could design. It's pretty simplistic when you think about it, when compared to other similar Kryptonian programs. But it's far more advanced than you'd expect it to be in other ways."

Harry nodded, processing all of that information she gave him.

"My mother showed me how to do that," Kara said.

Harry raised his eyebrow towards her. "And why on Earth would you think that it was a good idea to show that to my sister?"

"I….well I did it to Amanda first," Kara informed him sheepishly. She looked like the little girl who got her hand caught in the cookie jar. "I didn't think that there wasn't a reason for me to show her."

"Oh really," Harry muttered with a frown on his face.

Kara shrugged at him in response. "You know, I wasn't thinking really clearly about the consequences at the time."

Harry smiled. He figured that admitting something was the first step. With that fact out of the way, there was something else that he needed to discuss.

"So, there's just this dream that I had earlier," Harry said. Kara turned towards him with a frown. She thought that she sensed something odd. "Things got a bit trippy. It started out normal enough."

Harry launched into a brief explanation for what happened in the dream. Kara frowned when he discussed that.

"And just about when she was going to say something, you woke up?" Kara asked for clarification. Harry nodded.

"And she looked a little bit like my mother, there were some eerie similarities," Harry replied. "That was my first thought but…..there were too many differences for it to be her. The things that you notice. But from a distance, I can see how they could be mistaken to be twins."

Kara nodded. She figured that Harry had more than a couple of theories regarding this.

"And I thought for a moment that it might be the result of a new aphrodisiac that Pamela tested on me," Harry said. He leaned towards Kara who smiled. "It wouldn't be the first time that she did that, because she likes to experiment with what works on our unique physiology."

Kara shivered at that but smiled. "They can be fun most of the time, though."

Their conversational was cut short when Lily joined them, walking over in a bare-ass naked sight. Lily decided to take her place on Harry's lap.

"So, what have you been up to in England?" Kara asked suddenly.

"Oh, you know, business with the society," Lily replied. "There are a lot of things in Europe that have been changed. I can't put my finger on it, but a lot more has changed overnight."

Harry raised his eyebrow. He had been keeping the fact that the world had changed firmly in the back of his mind. For one, he did like the fact that there never was a Hogwarts for him to waste four years of his life in and there were other changes as well that he quite frankly liked. He couldn't put his finger on all of them though.

However, Lily didn't elaborate further. So if she didn't, then Harry didn't. His hand rested underneath her bare breasts when she shifted in his lap.

"I've been doing a lot of research with Circe and Morgaine," Lily said. She gave a nice a subtle grin. "They've honestly forgotten more Ancient Magicks over their life time than most people will ever learn in there's"

'That's for sure,' Rose agreed with a smile crossing her face.

Lily smiled, there was another fact that she neglected to mention but it was kind of important. "The Red Sun launched successfully in the EU on December Eleventh. And as usual, you can't keep them on the shelves. There's going to be an amazing holiday rush. That was some perfect timing."

"It really was," Kara admitted. There was a smile on her face.

"So, what are you two working on?" Lily asked.

Before they could explain what happened, Lily got to her feet with one quick movement. She turned around and planted her lips on Harry. He returned, kissing her deeply. Their tongues brushed together in a passionate explosion.

Lily worked her hand behind and pulled Kara over. Kara took Lily's place on Harry's lap. The blonde smiled and things were about ready to get heated.

Extremely heated, heated enough to burn the snow off of the ground. Lily pulled away from Harry and then leaned towards Kara, giving her a passionate kiss. Kara returned it, pushing her tongue into Lily's mouth.

Lily slowly stripped Kara's clothes off of her. She fondled the girl's bra clad breasts briefly and caused moans to erupt from her body. Then she stripped her skirt off to reveal a lacy red thong, stockings, and a garter belt.

With a devious smile on her face, Lily shifted one of her fingers into Kara's dripping pussy. The redhead explored Kara's pussy walls. She made sure her son's eyes were on the situation. She smiled when his erect cock stood up and started to pulse.

Lily reached over and gave Harry a brief pump. She returned to her activities with Kara, stripping her until she was naked as Lily was. The blonde's breasts pushed against Lily's. They weren't Karen level yet but they were quite lovely in their own right.

Both girls pushed apart and allowed Harry to push his fingers on in, deep between their legs. He started pumping his fingers rapidly, causing them a lot of pleasure when he played with their dripping pussies. He worked them over and caused their moans to deepen.

Kara turned towards Harry and got down, licking his cock briefly. She engulfed his cock with her mouth briefly but stood up.

"I need you in me," Kara replied, and she mounted Harry's lap suddenly. Her dripping slit brushed against his rock hard cock.

"And now a new challenger enters the ring," Lily whispered. She would have had her fun later, but she did have enough earlier.

She grabbed Kara and practically impaled her upon Harry's cock. The green eyed wizard felt bliss and so did the blonde Kryptonian when she came down onto Harry.

"Oh fuck yes," Kara moaned. Her hot hips clenched around Harry when she pushed him up and brought herself down onto him.

Harry reached towards her and grabbed her breasts. He gave them a nice little squeeze and her eyes closed tightly in response.

"Take me, more, take me," Kara begged him. He placed his face in between her tits and started to suck them. The blonde was slowly losing her mind when he played with her.

The fun continued when Lily pushed two fingers into Kara's ass and started to pump them. The redhead encouraged Kara to ride Harry.

The blonde felt an orgasm that rocked her mind.

Harry smiled and got an idea.

"Mum, get on the desk," Harry ordered her.

Lily obeyed, slowly crawling backwards onto the desk. Her soaked pussy showed before Harry. Spreading her legs, Lily showed a tiny strip of red hair near her cunt. Her lips begged to be devoured and Kara smiled when she decided to take a taste of the redhead goddess before her.

Kara kneeled between Lily's legs and licked her lips. There was a hunger that couldn't be sated.

She felt Harry's cock pushed against her and he grabbed her from behind. Harry pushed himself deep into Kara.

He went balls deep into her tight pussy. She clenched him in response, with Harry pushing forward. His hand cupped the underside of her breast. She moaned when he treated her to a new kind of pleasure.

Kara decided that Lily wasn't to be neglected. She used her tongue to pleasure the redhead MILF that was beneath her.

Lily closed her eyes and Kara treated her pussy with expert ease. Her tongue vibrated at a rapid fire fury deep into her body. Lily reached up and grabbed her hands on the back of Kara's head. She closed her eyes and felt her pleasure spike.

Harry grabbed Kara's hips and continued to plunge himself into her. She watched Kara's hands toy with Lily's breasts while she at her out. This was a nice combination if Harry had to say so himself. He ran his hands all over her body.

"I think you're going to make me cum soon," Harry whispered.

It was obvious now that he already made Kara cum. He did so again and again and he did so constantly. Her hot hips clamped down onto him and Harry plowed into her hot body. The blonde felt him rocked deep within her depths.

Kara begged him to continue to work her over. Her hot thighs engulfed his manhood when he plunged into her body. Over and over again to the point where she was driven completely and utterly mad. Harry's hand placed on the underside of her breast and he squeezed it.

Harry plunged himself into her. Her tight, wet, hot pussy closed around him. There were seconds before his balls were about ready to burst.

Lily nearly blacked out but she kept herself wet at the promise of her son's cock deep inside her. Harry rammed himself into Kara harder.

Harry grunted and he pushed himself into Kara's hot, wet depths. The blonde closed her hips down onto him and he plunged deep into her in response.

Kara moaned when she got a series of miniature orgasms. The big one was coming and she knew that Harry would come along with her. His cum loaded balls smacked against her thighs.

Harry closed his eyes and nibbled on Kara's ear. That caused her to moan deep into Lily's pussy which was an erotic sight to say the very least.

His balls grew heavy with his cum and he shot his load into Kara. The blonde could feel him plant his seed deep into her womb.

Harry pulled out and allowed his cum to flow from Kara's pussy. Lily slid off the desk and onto the floor, beneath her spread legs. She held out her tongue and collected the overflowing juices onto it.

With her mouth pointed underneath Kara's dripping snatch, she spread her legs. Harry got down onto the floor and he inserted his re hardened cock into her.

"Take me Harry, oh god, take me!" Lily screamed at the top of her lungs. She felt Harry plow into her dripping hot snatch.

Harry grabbed his mother's hips and plowed into her. His throbbing cock entered her body over and over again. He slammed into her body at a rapid fire rate.

Lily sampled the sweet combined nectar that spilled from Kara, along with her son's hard cock entering her body. He pushed into her hot depths over and over again.

"Fuck me, oh fuck me all night long," Lily begged him. She wished she could do more in this position.

Harry's manhood plowed into her needy pussy several times. Lily returned fire, her hot thighs capturing Harry's manhood when he went into her.

Kara somehow sauntered her way down to the floor. Her snatch draped over Lily's mouth and she sampled her oral talents.

Harry reached over when he slammed into his mother. He rubbed Kara's clit, causing his fingers to extend so he could get over there completely.

"Oh, nice trick,' Kara whimpered. She felt her love button being pushed with the combined combination of both of them.

Harry felt his mother's back arch and her hot hips closed around him. The redhead's womanhood clutched around his tool. The woman's breathing heightened when Harry worked deep inside her.

"Fuck, fuck, oh fuck," Lily begged him.

"I don't think that I'm muffling you enough,' Kara whispered.

Lily did a trick with her tongue which caused Kara to be driven wild. She nearly passed out from the pleasure.

And speaking of nearly passing out, Harry's thick manhood plunging into Lily's dripping hot snatch nearly did the trick on her. The redhead's hips lifted and raised, engulfing his manhood deep into her body.

"Oh, you're so close," Harry informed her. He allowed his mother her orgasm and it was like pure magic.

One thing was for sure, she could orgasm beyond what anyone could do. Lily's hips thrashed up and down when Harry's manhood plowed into her.

She felt her god spike himself into her. She was so close to being undone.

"Stay with me," Harry informed Lily.

Lily nodded. They were reaching closer to the end. It might have sounded tacky but it was going to be like pure magic when they finished.

Kara slumped over Lily's face. Harry caught her before she collapsed completely and smothered Lily to death with her snatch. There could have been far worse ways to go.

"Oh, cum in me, please," Lily moaned. Her hot tight pussy held onto Harry's throbbing rod when he impacted her down hard on the ground. Her hips crushed against him when she squeezed his rod even harder.

Harry allowed himself to get free. He spilled his load into Lily. His beautiful mother thrashed and spasmed beneath him, shoving more of his cock deep inside her.

Her tight cunt milked him. Lily thought that she was backed up and she was proven correctly when Harry impacted his cum into her over and over again. He spilled his thick load into her amazingly tight body.

Lily collapsed in a shuddering wreck. Her son's cum draining from her body.

Kara and Lily situated themselves into a nice little sixty nine position. Harry turned and saw that Pamela was there.

"And how long have you been waiting there?" Harry asked.

"Long enough to be horny," she whispered, walking over to him. The two of them closed the gap and the fun was just beginning again.

Harry turned his attention to with Lily and Kara pretty much being wrecked.

Julian Day, the Calendar Man, shakily opened the door to his rather expensive apartment. Despite the fact that it was rather expensive, it was tastefully done. It was done in a certain order, where things were placed where he felt they should be. It gave off the impression of an eighties yuppie businessman. He wanted to project that imagine of refinement and class.

It would hide the darkness that lurked in his mind. Everything looked so normal. It was so unassuming. He walked forward and reached towards the couch. He calmly straightened a cushion so it would be properly aligned with the rest of the couch.

Day walked back to the door and shut the door. He bolted the three locks in a way that was rhymatic and almost creepy.

He slumped against the door, his back against it. The encounter he had tonight, it had shaken him. It upset him even more. When things did not go his way, he was upset.

"Thirty one days comes January, March, May, July, August, October, and December," he muttered underneath his breath. He flexed his hand, trying to prevent the instinct to bust something in frustration. "All the rest have thirty. But for February is a misfit in the sense that has twenty eight. Every four years though, it's seen in a different light. Every four years, leap year comes, and sets it all right."

He did a breathing exercise and repeated this mantra constantly. Over and over again he speaks. It took him several minutes to reach a sense of calm and tranquility.

He flickered on the light in the apartment so he did not stand completely to the dark. He casually limped over and turned on the stereo. He frowned and looked at it. He turned the dial down one decibel and nodded. It was just right.

He limped down the hallway. It took him only a matter of moments before he reached his destination, a locked door. He carefully unlocked it and pushed the door opened with a surprising and scary amount of count.

One might expect something extremely disturbing inside. While it did not lack that unsettling vibe, it did not come across as bad as things could be. There was a variety of calendars that rested on the walls, each of them turned to a different month of the year. There were dates crossed out and neatly written notes made to them.

There were also desk calendars, with neatly stacked dates ripped off. He sauntered over and casually removed today's date, because it had just passed midnight by his clock.

Some of the calendar's had pictures pinned it. One was the calendar for February 1998 which had a picture of Vicki Vale attached to it.

Day limped across the room and sit down at a desk where a December 1997 calendar was featured prominently. There were a couple of dates that were marked. Some of them have passed already.

The main date would lead all the way up to the Christmas season.

He casually picked up the calendar and lifted it up to his face. He glared at it with a great deal of intensity. His eyes didn't move. One could argue they were unblinking, and they would grow bloodshot because of how hard he stared at it.

His mantra remained silent. It didn't pass his lips in more than a whisper. He started to hum the Twelve Days of Christmas underneath his breath.

His eyes looked to a row of similar packages much like the one he threw at Batman. They all had been placed underneath his desk, carefully.

He looked at his package, they were all there, all organized. Day looked back to the calendar. His eyes diverted back to one sole and solitary date, of December Twenty-Fifth.

Christmas was coming and it was going to be the day where everything would be leading up. If Gotham thought that his Veteran's Day celebration was something amazing, they hadn't really seen anything yet.

"On the fourth day of Christmas my true love gave to me, four birds a calling, three French hens, two turtle doves, and a Partridge in a pair tree."

He placed the calendar down on the table. There was a solemn smile on his face when he ensured the calendar was completely straight on the desk.

It was the next day. Kara joined Amanda and Emily standing in line at the bank. They needed to make a withdrawal. Normally the three of them would use their credit. There was just only one problem. They wanted to buy Harry a Christmas present without it showing up in the records.

They couldn't very well go to an ATM because the amount they needed was a little more than that. The twins needed Kara to be with them because she had Alpha privileges and she was one of the few people who could authorize such a purpose.

Kara waited impatiently. She was dressed in a black outfit, except for the fact that her jacket at silver trim. Amanda wore a green jacket, with a black shirt, and a tight pair of blue jeans. Emily wore the same thing, only the colors of the shirt and jacket were released.

"So, do you know what anyone is getting Harry?" Amanda asked.

"You know, the less people who know the better, because of your inability to keep a secret, and you better keep this one, unless you want the contents of your diary becoming public," Emily commented to her.

"Hey, I'm getting better at keeping secrets, and I didn't tell them about the time where you….." Amanda said. She trailed off when she realized that she was coming close to saying something that she shouldn't. "See, I didn't say anything."

Kara was curious at one point. At the same time, she didn't really need to know. Actually, she didn't want to know.

"Diana, Faora, and Karen are going together on their gift for him," Kara said, with a smile. "I don't know what. And a few of the other girls are doing something similar."

"I'd like the gift of a faster moving line myself," Amanda said. She tapped her foot impatiently and Emily reached forward in response, to pat her sister on the end.

"Maybe we can get you the gift of patience this holiday season, Mandy," Emily commented with a cheeky grin on her face.

"Maybe I should give you the gift of a spanking this holiday season, Emmy," Amanda bit back. Emily frowned and Kara stared at both of them.

"Ladies, don't make me give both of you that gift," Kara said. "So how's school for both of you?"

Amanda shrugged in response. "Oh, you know, school is school. It seems like no matter what tax bracket you're in, you're going to have a lot of drama."

"Yeah and you see a lot of people sniping at each other because of what their parents did," Emily added. "Good thing we have our own social circle that's above a lot of things."

"But we still have to deal with the soap opera crap from a distance," Amanda said with a shrug. "We don't really concern ourselves that much with it, you know."

"The less drama the better," Kara commented with a smile.

"I'm just glad that we survived this term," Amanda said. She turned towards Kara with a questioning look in her eyes. "Is university kind of like that?"

"Oh, well it's worse, almost," Kara admitted. She frowned deeply when she looked at the twin. "Everyone is trying to get in favor with the top people in class. Maybe they're trying to score some ass or get some help with their academics so they don't get kicked off the sports team. There's a lot of gossip. And it's weirder in some ways, isn't it?"

"Exactly how so?" Amanda asked.

"Well you have a wider variety of people coming in, from different parts of the country and in a couple of cases from different parts of the world," Kara said, shaking her head. "That would be a mess, if you didn't even factor in the fact that some of them act like horny teenagers."

"And what about the professors?" Emily asked.

"Well they're not too different from a lot of the students, and I'm sure there's a lot of drama going on behind the scenes with them, too," Kara admitted. "And yes, a lot of them act like horny teenagers as well."

"Good place to scout talent though, isn't it?" Amanda asked.

Kara bit down on her lip deep in thought. She was trying to figure out a way how to choose her words carefully.

"It's not bad, but you know that Harry has his own ways of scouting talent," Kara said. "And he's more selective these days. And it's all about the thrill of the hunt for him. Cornering his prey and make them want it."

The twins didn't have a chance to respond to that. There was a sound of shattering glass, followed by the alarm going off. Several men scrambled into the bank with guns drawn at them.

The most peculiar thing about these men was that all of them wore suits but they wore animal masks. The one who stood out the most wore a Frog mask, with a red hoody pulled up over her face.

One of the security guards made a movement towards the gang. That didn't end too well for him. He was plugged by two of the gang members.

"Alright, on the ground, everyone get on the ground!" one of them yelled. He was wearing a Lemur mask and he looked absolutely intend to kill.

'Just follow his orders for now,' Kara thought urgently to the twins. 'There's too many witnesses to do anything right now….just get down, it will be okay.'

The twins looked like they were about ready to protest. Kara was right though, they couldn't do anything with this many people around.

The security wasn't that useful either. Everyone got on the ground as intended. Now that the crowd was under control, the man in the frog mask gave orders.

"Get to the vault!" he said. A pig, a gorilla, and a devil masked men all nodded.

The three split off from the group and the other three of them stayed with the leader of the gang. They were going to keep the main area of the bank in check.

It didn't take too long for them to liberate what they wanted from the vault. The robbers efficiently went about what they wanted to do.

"All of you, keep it to the ground, and you can go home to your families this holiday season!" the Red Hooded man yelled. "Anyone who tries to be a hero…..well this city isn't any place for heroes. This city is the type of place that watches heroes burn. And we're set the fire!"

Kara's ear picked up the sound of gunfire from the back of the bank. She was sure that Amanda and Emily also picked up these hideous sounds of gunfire as well. There was shouting that came next and almost a whooping cheer that followed things. Another round of gunfire was followed.

Things grew deathly quiet. Those who were still in the lobby of the Bank thought for a mere second they had gone deaf.

The robbers left the back of the bank. Each carried three duffel bags between them.

"Where the fuck is the Devil?" Red Hood asked.

Pig responded with a solemn voice. "There was a guard hiding in the back, trying to be a hero. He shot Devil. We capped his ass."

"Good, I'm glad," Red Hood commented. The sounds of sirens blared outside to show that the GCPD SWAT team arrived on the scene.

Someone must have tipped them off. Red Hood cursed his luck when he saw that the SWAT arrived on the scene, well before the other members of the GCPD.

There was a huge bounty on his head from all of the people he stole from and he pissed off. The SWAT, being the mercenaries they were, were ready to collect themselves a little Christmas bonus at his expense.

"Get your ass forward, or we will shoot!"

Red Hood saw Snipers on the roof across the street from the bank and they were on the ground. He frowned. He doubted very much that he would accept their surrender.

"You know, I don't think that you have the balls to shoot with all of these people here!" Red Hood taunted them.

The SWAT responded by opening fire on the bank , not caring that they could hit innocent people in response. Their bullets came just short of hitting anyone but that wasn't the point.

The Red Hood gang prepared to fire back and SWAT was going to launch tear gas canisters into the building.

Suddenly, in the midst of the chaos, a bright black and silver blur shot forward. It moved faster than a speeding bullet.

One second both sides fired at each other. The next moment, the SWAT and the Red Hood gang were all taken out. There was a series of cracks that could be heard.

Both sides were disarmed instantly and the dust finally cleared. Whoever did this was completely gone.

The bank robbers and the cops fell to the ground to the ground. It seemed like an eternity passed but it was only several seconds.

Amanda and Emily turned to Kara, who had a cheeky grin on her face. She slowly pulled her hair from her ponytail.

The three of them straightened up before anyone could catch on to their silent conversation.

The actual Red Hood walked forward, wearing a Bill Clinton mask, and his actual crew walked side by side with him. They were just wrapping up a successful robbery of a Money Launderer who worked for the Commission of Crime.

"Worked like a charm boys, worked like a charm," The Red Hood said, excitement brimming from his voice when he spoke. "That dummy gang kept the SWAT off of us, and that tip I called in diverted them away from us."

This was what they called a banner day. The real Red Hood gang walked away. You throw enough scratch at anyone and they'd help you move the world.

Harry decided that now was the perfect time to head to the Museum where Diana worked with Helena Sandsmark. This was the perfect opportunity he had been waiting for, to make good on the favor Diana asked him of a short while back.

"Doctor Sandsmark is this way, Doctor Potter," Margaret Sorrow told him when she walked next to him. She casually eyed him up, but was rather subtle for her.

Harry appreciated the assistance. Helena wasn't up in her office when he got there and he literally, almost, ran into Margaret when he was there. She was showing him the way there and also giving him a tour.

"There have been a lot of changes recently with the museum, there should be an upswing of business when Spring comes,' Margaret told him. "Thanks to our mysterious benefactor."

"A lot has changed," Harry admitted to her. She looked towards him with a knowing grin on her face. "It's been a long time since I've been to the museum properly."

"Oh, well that's a shame, isn't it?" Margaret asked. She tried not to get lost in his eyes, even though they were so shiny. "It's a really shame."

She cleared her throat and also her head shaking it.

"Here's the new exhibit that Doctor Sandsmark is working on," Margaret said. Harry followed her to the location where it was beings et up.

No sooner did he see there, he saw Cassie Sandsmark sitting on a bench. She was quiet for the most part, doing her homework. Every now and then, Harry could see a frown cross her face, like she had swallowed something sour and rancid.

He spotted Helena off in the distance, she was setting up a display.

"Thank you for something me the way," Harry told her. He was going to wait for Doctor Sandsmark to finish.

Margaret took her leave. In the meantime, Harry decided to park himself down to Cassie on the bench. She nearly jumped about three feet in the air. It was obvious whilst she was doing her homework, she was also enamored in listing to music on a disc-man.

'Obviously why she didn't notice you until you pretty much came into her line of sight,' Diana replied in amusement.

"Oh, Doctor Potter, I didn't see you come," Cassie muttered in a sheepish voice. "You're here to see my mother, aren't you?"

"Yes, I am," Harry confirmed to her. "But I saw that she's busy supervising the set up for another display, so I'm going to wait."

"Yeah, it's best that you do, you don't want to bother Mom when she's working on her old crap," Cassie said. Harry raised his eyebrow at her. "Sorry."

"I couldn't help but notice that you were making a face like you swallowed sour milk when you were working on your homework," Harry said. Cassie looked at him, folding her arms. She gave him a swift nod. "I'd help you if you'd like."

"Oh that'd be great, I'm dying over here," Cassie said graciously. Her frown deepened when she leaned in closer to him. "It's my math homework, and I don't quite get the concept to be honest with you."

"Well a lot of people don't get math, so don't worry," Harry said. Magic and math didn't really mix too fluidly from what he recalled.

"And I do pretty good in everything else, especially history," Cassie said.

"I wonder why that is," Harry replied.

"Well, I guess that my mother's lectures are good for something," Cassie admitted, folding her arms over her chest. "I guess that's the case, because she knows what she's talking about."

"Let's see if I can help you there," Harry said. "And it says show your work."

"I wonder if I can get away with showing a teacher a calculator," Cassie said frowning.

"I wouldn't recommend that," Harry said, raising his eyebrow.

'You know, she doesn't seem so hung up on you like most women are,' Donna commented. 'That must be a change.'

'Only ten, give her time,' Amanda reminded her without taking a breath. 'And as you might have noticed, she's kind of distracted by someone else.'

'Diana!' Lyta chimed in, without any amount of subtly.

'What did I do?' Diana asked. She felt she came into the conversation late to the party.

Donna really wished that she could mute her younger sister. She didn't have Alpha privileges, so she couldn't. She might abuse that power just a tad.

The homework was finished up just in time for Helena to pop up. She looked kind of surprised but really happy to see him there.

"Harry, this is a pleasant surprise," she said, bubbling over with excitement as she said it.

Harry stood up so he could greet her properly. "I was in the area, so I'd figure that I'd stop by. And I've been meaning to take a look at the new exhibits. Diana mentioned that I would be interesting in seeing the exhibit that you were working on."

She smile brightly in response. She appreciated the fact he showed an interesting.

"I'll show it to you," Helena commented with a momentary smile on her face. She lead him over towards the most recent display.

Harry walked by a display that had some pieces of jewelry that was discovered during her last dig. As interesting as that was, that was not the thing that caught Harry's attention.

'Is that what I think that it is?' Kara asked.

'Yes, that's exactly what you think it is,' Karen commented. She could not believe it.

'Well, you're right in the sense that's going to prove to be interesting,' Faora thought.

There was a pair of mannequins wearing an extremely exquisite gold armor. It looked like humanoid hawks for lack of a better term. Harry blinked for a second in genuine shock. There was numerous banter by those who were in the know and for those who weren't, they would get filled in pretty suit.

There was a male and a female. Harry frowned.

"Do you might if I take a closer look?" Harry asked.

Helena nodded. She looked a little impulsive, which was strange considering the fact that she was most of the time fairly reserved.

Harry was able to sense a strange level of energy coming off of them after she lead him closer to the display.

'Nth metal,' Faora confirmed. 'It's long since gone inert though. It's lost a lot of it's inherent power due to how old it is.'

Harry let out an impressed whistle, with Helena giving him the eye.

"Where exactly did you find this?" Harry asked.

"Egypt….well it's obvious that it's Egypt," Helena said. "It was in the middle of nowhere basically, it was an undiscovered temple, and inside it was a tomb. It was pretty much out of the way. You had to be pretty much searching for something to discover it."

Helena's voice dropped into a shocked whisper. Harry leaned in to discuss further matters with her.

"It was far off the beaten path," she added with a frown. "It was a bit of a gamble to get in there actually, since all I had was a couple of very old scrolls that all seemed to point to the same location. It was way up the Nile."

"I see," Harry said, impressed.

"There may have been settlements there, and I'm planning on returning this Spring to see what I else I can uncover," Helena remarked. She seemed to be in a pretty good mood to be honest.

Her good mood was infectious. Harry decided to strike while the iron was pretty hot. "I have to admit, seeing the exhibits wasn't the only reason that I was here."

Helena raised her eyebrow.

"I was wondering if you would like to join me for dinner sometime after Christmas," Harry said. He gave this statement so bluntly that it caught Helena off guard.

It took her a couple of moments to catch her bearings, before she answered. "Yes, I'd like to"

"Are you hungry now?" Harry asked. Helena paused and looked at him. She nodded slowly. "There's a get together tonight with a couple of other girls from the university this evening. Cassie and you are welcomed to join."

The scene was an abandoned parking garage in one of the nicer parts of Gotham City. It was pretty quiet there at the moment, almost tranquil come to think about it. One wouldn't consider it to be so odd when they considered that it was later in the evening. The weather continued to assault the city.

The squeal of tires indicated that several vehicles pulled up and parked across from each other. There were two big black SUVs. They were large almost to the point of absurd overcompensation for something.

A limo pulled to the other side and a much smaller SUV pulled up alongside that. A moment passed, before several men exited from their cars.

Black Mask and his men exited the SUV. The Penguin exited the limo, along with Mr. Walrus and several thugs. The two sides stared each other down like a pair of gunslingers in the old west.

"Down to business then," Black Mask said.

"To business," Penguin agreed. There would always be a tension between these two but it was a marriage of convenience. "How are things going as of late?"

"I think it's been going well, but that's just my opinion," Black Mask told him. His voice came off in a hoarse whisper. "Thorne doesn't even realize that we're both working against him. And the Commission has been getting it really hard."

"There's one little problem though, and we both know it," The Penguin said. He clutched the handle of his umbrella. As long as Black Man's men didn't move from their position, they didn't have a problem.

"The Package, Falcone's men got in our way, so it didn't reach the right location," Black Mask said. He cracked his knuckles.

"How much damage did the explosion at the Distribution Center do to your side of the business?" Penguin asked. Black Mask stared back at him. "I heard it fucked things up really nicely."

"It did fuck all to it," Black Mask said. He looked at him. "At least fuck all to the criminal side of my operation. The Distribution Center is used for the legitimate side of my business. Nothing at all to do with the criminal side, that's all done in house, since I don't want some random asshole to fuck things up."

Penguin nodded. One looking into his face might have speculated that he just got a bad case of indigestion. The reason was that he paid good money for some information that turned out to be wrong.

"Zucco's been making some overtures on Maroni's half," Black Mask informed him. "He says that he might be willing to do more to take it to Thonre, if I'm willing to help take it to Falcone."

Penguin looked thoughtful. "Hmm, there's an idea that has some potential. We might need to look it that one."

A little bit later, Harry, Helena, and Cassie arrived at the restaurant. It was far more relaxed, not too much like the high class places that Harry and his wives sometimes frequented.

There was quite a motley crew there. Harry noticed Barbara first of all, who picked up Lois from school. Harleen and Pamela were there as well. Sapphire showed up, inviting Alexa along with the ride. Diana brought Donna and also Bethanie showed up.

Harry spotted Rex Mason sitting at the bar with a stoic expression on his face. He didn't really make eye contact. It appeared that he was just here as the designated driver for Alexa and Sapphire.

Harry pulled out seats for the Sandsmarks to sit down. They did so and that allowed Harry to take his seat next to Pamela and Harley.

Pamela leaned in close to her. "Kara and the Twins called earlier to say that they'd be running late. There was some kind of incident that happened at the bank."

"Nothing serious, I hope," Harry said. He frowned, this was the first that he heard of this. Then again, there had been a busy afternoon.

"They need to give a statement at the GCPD," Pam said, shrugging her shoulder. "They will be here with Sarah and Vicki in a little bit."

Barbara heard Sarah's name and she looked on with surprise. "Exactly how do you know Detective Essen?"

"We met during the kidnapping attempt on the twins and she asked me out," Harry said. Barbara frowned for a brief second and nodded.

"In your world, that makes sense," Barbara said. "I guess that you have the weirdest luck when it comes to things like that."

"You better believe it," Harry commented to her. He saw Harleen staring out of him out of the corner of her eyes.

Staring might have been too strong of a word but she was intently looking at him. One could argue she paid him a great deal of attention.

"How are you doing?" Harry asked. "It's been while since I've had a chance to ask."

Harley beamed at having his undivided attention on her. "Oh, I've been busy as well, not as busy as you, but I've been busy. And you know that I got the internship at Blackgate. Talking to most of those people….not exactly the most interesting people in the world. Some of them threatened to stab me if I didn't shut the fuck up and Jonathan Carne, well he's pretty creepy."

"I can only imagine," Harry muttered dryly with a chuckle. He could feel someone's hand brush against his lap. He didn't have a chance to see who it was due to being preoccupied a little bit.

Harley continued to rattle on about what she was going. That was cut short due to the fact that Harry's phone, a prototype of the next version of the Red Sun, dinged. He carefully fished it out of his pocket. He smiled at the puppy dog eyes Barbara was giving him. He would have let out a light chuckle as well.

He carefully read the message and he hit send in response.

"Sorry about that, had to take care of something," Harry said. He put his phone away like nothing else was the matter. "So, how are the rest of you doing?"

Jaime was down in the Lair, looking at the map. She waited patiently. It became clear what she was doing a moment later when the map suddenly went off line.

It rebooted itself. The fairly detailed, but still limited by range, map that Nightwing, Talon, and Black Canary used faded away. It was now replaced by a super detailed three dimensional holographic mp of Gotham City.

It was no longer limited by range or location since Harry just hacked into every Red Sun in Gotham to act like their suit was.

Jamie wasn't really surprised when a location popped up on the map. It should the current whereabout of the Calendar Killer or what she assumed it to be. She tried not to look too smug when she contacted Batman.

"Yes," Batman said, in his usual Batman voice.

"I think we have him."
