A Life in DC
Chapter 8 - Part 2
The Joker's eyes went wide with surprise. His manic energy deflated like a punctured balloon. He giggled one last, weak, pathetic sound. "She... she liked it..." he whispered, and then he collapsed, a pile of greasy purple fabric and broken paint.
The rest of the facility fell quickly. Red Robin, his fingers flying across his portable console, isolated the trigger codes with seconds to spare. "Aerosolizers are offline," he announced, his voice tight with relief. "I repeat, the aerosolizers are offline." Nightwing and Orphan swept the remaining hostiles, their work swift and merciless. The armored shutters holding Jason retracted with a loud groan. He stepped out, his helmeted face turning toward the control room. For a moment, he just stood there, looking at the sedated form of the man who had killed him. A cold, murderous desire radiated from him, but he didn't act. He just turned and helped secure the rest of the goons.
The city was safe. For now.
But Bruce stood alone in the silent, gas-filled control room, the phantom images of his failures burned into the back of his mind. He watched the sedated clown on the floor and felt nothing but a cold, vast emptiness.
High above the city, in the relative quiet of the Clock Tower, Barbara Gordon was running point. Her fingers flew across the keys, coordinating communications, feeding data to the team, and monitoring the GCPD bands. The fight at the chemical plant was playing out on a dozen screens in front of her. She was just confirming that all aerosolizer signals had gone dead when a different kind of alert popped up. A priority-one encrypted channel, one reserved for the most sensitive intel.
The file was small, labeled with a simple string of random characters. She decrypted it. It was a video file. A burst transmission, bounced off three untraceable satellites before being routed directly to her. The source was anonymous, but the metadata screamed "Harley Quinn."
Curious, she opened it.
The video was shaky, lit by the harsh, jaundiced glow of a car's interior dome light. Harley, on her knees, her face a mask of ecstatic, almost religious concentration as she performed an act so shockingly explicit it made Barbara's breath catch in her throat. Barbara's eyes widened, her fingers stilling on the keyboard. The man's face was mostly in shadow, a dark blur against the cracked vinyl of the car seat. It could have been anyone. But it wasn't. It was the cold, sinking certainty of a detective connecting the final, damning piece of a puzzle.
Her mind instantly flashed to another file, one she shouldn't have, one she'd pulled from Batman's private server after the Gilded Cage incident. It was his recording of Selina Kyle and Vieri. A surveillance file, personal and raw, that Bruce had encrypted but never deleted. In that footage, Selina—a woman who defined herself by defying men—had been utterly dismantled, reduced to a worshipful, sated mess. The reason why was burned into Barbara's memory. It was an impossible anatomical reality, a sheer, overwhelming physical presence that defied logic. The man in the car with Harley, even seen only in shadow and silhouette, moved with the same raw power. The way Harley's body strained and yielded, the sounds she made—they were the same notes of overwhelmed ecstasy Selina had hit. It had to be him.
The camera, held by Harley herself, was a chaotic, dizzying thing, but it captured everything. It panned up as Harley scrambled over the console, her movements frantic and animalistic, and she sank down onto him. For a split second, the shifting light caught his face in profile. The confirmation hit Barbara like a physical blow, knocking the air from her lungs. Oliviero Vieri. The GCPD patrolman. The quiet ghost in Montoya's new task force. The man from Batman's video. It was him.
"Shit," Barbara breathed, a whisper lost in the quiet hum of the Clock Tower.
"What is it, Babs?" Stephanie Brown's voice was right behind her, closer than Barbara realized. She leaned over Barbara's shoulder, her full, bouncy tits pressing against Barbara's back as she tried to get a better look at the screen. "Something from the plant? Did they get him?"
Barbara's mouth was a thin, hard line. Her professional instinct screamed at her to shut the laptop, to delete the file, to pretend it never existed. But her body betrayed her. Her fingers were frozen. It was too late. Stephanie's jaw dropped, her mouth falling open into a perfect 'O' of shock.
"Holy... shit," she breathed, her blue eyes wide.
Cassandra Cain, standing silently on Stephanie's other side, was a study in stillness. But her eyes, dark and perceptive, were locked on the screen, taking in every detail. She saw the way Harley's body, all toned muscle and compact curves, moved with a desperate, need-driven energy. She saw the man's powerful frame, the thick corded muscles of his chest and arms straining as he gripped Harley's hips. And she saw it—the sheer, overwhelming scale of the man, the undisguised, transcendent ecstasy on Harley's face. A slow, unfamiliar heat bloomed deep in Stephanie's belly, a warm, liquid weight that pooled low in her hips. She saw the way Harley's body shook, her back arching as another orgasm ripped through her, the way the man's powerful biceps bunched and strained with the effort of holding her. It was... impressive. Shockingly so. Awestruck.
Cassandra's reaction was more internal, but just as potent. She didn't see the messy sex; she saw the language. The complete, total, joyful surrender on Harley's part, not born of fear, but of overwhelming, mind-breaking pleasure. She saw the raw, unapologetic dominance in the man's posture, the easy, confident way he controlled Harley's frantic energy. And she felt a corresponding throb of response deep in her own core, a tightening in her gut that was both alarm and a thrilling curiosity. She shifted her weight, her strong, toned thighs pressing together almost unconsciously, the sleek fabric of her black suit suddenly feeling too tight. Her eyes flickered from the screen to Barbara's face, then back again, reading the tension in her leader's shoulders.
The camera angle shifted, showing a close-up of the point where their bodies joined. The sight was obscene, hypnotic. Harley's puffy, swollen lips stretched impossibly wide around the thick, glistening shaft, which disappeared into her again and again. Barbara felt a flush creep up her neck, heating her cheeks. Her own pulse, a steady, professional rhythm just moments ago, was now a frantic, traitorous drumbeat against her ribs. She could feel the phantom heat between her own legs, a tingling, insistent warmth that was both unwelcome and undeniable.
"Okay... wow," Stephanie breathed, her voice thick with a mix of shock and a growing, undeniable arousal. She was unable to look away. "I... uh... I didn't know... they could be that..."
"Don't," Barbara said, her voice a sharp, clipped command. But it was too late.
Barbara slammed her laptop shut. The sound was like a gunshot in the quiet, high-tech room, making both Stephanie and Cassandra flinch. "It's nothing," she said, her voice tight, clipped, professional. "A corrupted file from an external source. Focus on the mission." But she could feel the heat in her own cheeks, the unwelcome, persistent throb of her own pulse. She was a professional. A leader. But that... that was something else entirely. That was a complication. A big one.
She turned back to her main console, her fingers flying across the keyboard, but her mind was a million miles away. She routed the file directly to Batman's personal channel, encrypting it with his highest-level clearance key and marking it EYES ONLY, ALPHA-CLASS RESTRICTED. "Robin," she said, her voice firm, a little too firm. "I need a full system diagnostic on the chemical plant's network. I want to know every entry and exit point they used." She paused, then added, "Nightwing, sweep the perimeter for stragglers. Orphan, you're with me. We're done here."
As she gave the orders, she could feel their eyes on her. She didn't look back.
"Dismissed," Barbara said, and the word was a release.
Stephanie and Cassandra didn't need to be told twice. They moved with a quiet, deliberate speed, their athletic bodies a contrast to the soft glow of the equipment. They retreated to the small, private locker room and shower area adjacent to the main control room, the door hissing shut behind them, sealing them in the sterile, white-tiled space.
The moment the door clicked shut, the professional facade crumbled.
"Holy crap," Stephanie breathed, leaning back against the cool metal of a locker. She pressed the heels of her hands into her eyes, but the images were burned onto the backs of her eyelids. Her body was still humming, a low-grade current of arousal that wouldn't go away. Her suit felt too tight, especially across her chest where her full, heavy tits strained against the purple and black fabric. Her nipples were hard, sensitive points that rubbed against the lining with every breath she took. The heat between her legs was a steady, insistent throb.

They stayed like that for a long time, tangled together on the shower floor, the hot water raining down on them. The video was forgotten for a moment. The only thing that mattered was the heat, the skin, the shared release.
But the image of the man—of the cock—was still there. Etched into their minds. A new standard. A new obsession.
Back in the control room, Barbara sat alone in the dim light. The Clock Tower was quiet now, the only sound the low hum of the computers and the distant wail of a siren. She had rerouted the file. She had given her orders. She had done her job.
But she couldn't focus.
Her mind kept replaying the video. Every detail. Every sound. The image of that impossible cock, stretching Harley, filling her. The sound of Harley's screams, the look on her face. It was branded into her memory.
She stood up, her body tense. Her own suit felt like a cage, constricting, suffocating. She walked over to the large, plate-glass window that overlooked the city. Gotham sprawled out below her, a glittering, wounded jewel. But she didn't see it.
She saw a car. She saw a man. She saw a woman broken by pleasure.
Her hand drifted down, almost of its own accord. She rested it on her stomach, then slid it lower, between her legs. The fabric of her suit was a thin barrier. She could feel the heat radiating from her core, the insistent throb of her own arousal.
She closed her eyes, leaning her forehead against the cool glass. She was a professional. A leader. But she was also a woman. And for the first time in a long time, she felt like the woman was winning.
She thought of Vieri. Not as a cop. Not as a complication. But as a man. A man with a... gift. A power. The same power that had broken Harley. The same power that had broken Selina.
And in the quiet, lonely darkness of the Clock Tower, Oracle, the master of information, the keeper of secrets, allowed herself to wonder what it would feel like to be on the receiving end of that power. To be the one to be broken. To be the one to scream.
Her hand began to move, a slow, deliberate circle over her clit. A soft, ragged sigh escaped her lips. A secret, one she now shared with the Bat, and with the two women in the shower.
Later, back in the Batcave, Batman stood before the main console. He watched the video. Once. He didn't flinch. He didn't react. He just watched. He recognized Vieri immediately. And he recognized the raw power that had already broken Selina's will. He saw the way it had utterly destroyed Harley's. There was no question in his mind that this was the same man.
