Chapter 9

Deadpool shivered at the spikes and looked up when the shadow engulfed him, his head felt like ton of bricks in one condom, ready to let her rip. He shook his head, he might be having hallucinations again and a strong case of Deja vu.

"Alright, Deadpool, I'm ready to listen" Batman said firmly.

"Batman giving me the business, not funny"

He got up from the ground in his bat costume, one moment he was experiencing the joy of freedom, the next it was gloom and disappointment.

"Not ready for a chit chat batsy, I have a train to catch and it's called justice and justice never sleeps" He sing songed and flash folded his arms.

"A train?" It all came back to him, the cold memories of him killing them all, the train, the flashes of lightning, he cupped his face with his eyes wide open.

"You son of a bitch_" A swift, ugly image of Alfred came to mind while the blast eroded him.

The fucker ran back in time and nothing's changed yet, he guessed the Scarlett Speedster liked to run back to his vomit once in a while. He sighed raising a blade.

"I got the message, now, where I come from, you're the ironman and you're the property of FOX and a rat who saved the entire universe"

Flash's eyes rounded at the flashes he got and turned to the direction of Arkham asylum, his eyes flared at the explosion.

"Ooh, that was...so sudden"

"Robin" He ran to the base of the building and created cyclones to put out the fire, the timings were close, Batman was supposed to be here giving a helping hand but Slade got away and the prisoners paid the ultimate price, so did Robin. He closed his fists after he searched the entire building for any sign of him.

"Damn" He knew it was too good to be true, the one time he was happy about time travelling, a revolutionary movement with almost zero cataclysmic results.

Batman swung down behind him while Flash slowly gave in to desperation after losing the poor lad. They heard coughing and the rocks fell off and he saw him.

Robin trembled touching his shoulder and Batman looked concerned hurrying to assist him.

"Slade, he got away...I couldn't rescue the staff or prisoners" He said angrily, especially when he was so close, he'd let his arrogance take the reins and sadly, he drove under a pile of rubble, it was a wonder how he survived and what was the Flash doing in Gotham?

"You alright?"

"Is that supposed to be a question?" He turned to the Flash and groaned when Batman put him in the Batmobile alongside with him.

Damian was supposed to be here fighting Deadpool but the explosion ran him down, he had cuts and sprained a shoulder. Flash ran beside the Batmobile and tapped on the glass.

"How'd you know I ran back in time?"

Batman's fist tightened on the wheel making a sharp turn on the road. "You asked me not to put him in a tube, which I did previously, big mistake"

Flash chuckled nervously then the flashes returned "Alfred"

He raced ahead of the crew and ran to the bat cave where Alfred stood scrutinising the broken tube with wires around, he sighed with relief.

"What happened?"

"Oh, the usual, Clayface escaped"

"Clayface? I feel like I've been through this before" He touched his head and Alfred gave him a suspicious look, he had no memory of what happened or wasn't even alive to remember. _Several minutes before the time travel_ he was found eroded with his flesh roasted and browned.

Flash ducked the rays, his eyes moved over the ice particles as it whizzed past him to Alfred standing there, Alfred tried to dissipate and put his hand up to avoid the freeze ray. Flash glanced at Batman holding on to Damian with his freeze gun out.

Deadpool grimaced at the amazing image of Clayface and a brutal part of him still in Alfred's form.

"Clayface? Ha! More like Freeze face" Flash said.

Batman helped Robin on the bed and Robin pushed his hand away "I'm fine, I've had a sword through my hand before" He waited to prepare his shoulder and repositioned it.

"Where's Alfred?"

"Up here" They looked up at Alfred hanging upside down like a bat with the upper half of his body restrained by the rest of Clayface, it was moving and he fell over, Wade caught him and the flash

"I'll have these," He said and blasted the remains before it got away from the Batcave and gave a sigh of relief.

"Yeah, how about some teamwork, woo!" Deadpool said.

"Idiot" Robin said bitterly massaging his shoulders. "And who is this reprobate, new ally?"

"Hey, watch your tone plushie! I've fought you and I can_"

Deadpool looked around with his eyes wide open, Flash zoomed him to the end of the trail by the cave

"Whoa, I'm geeking out right now, am I in the speed force?"

"Uh...no. Listen, pal, I don't know where you're from but can you let this play out itself? Seems like you and I both know how the night goes. I messed up because uh you, you have a chance to do better, don't try to play butcher boy while we're stopping the bad guys"

"I'm sorry, my ears are ringing, say that again?"

"Don't get on Batman's good side, he might make it his life's mission to put you down, just...play along, don't tell nobody anything"

"So we're like the directors of this movie, awesome, think I might have a shot with you and Iris? We'd make a pretty neat threesome_"

Flash growled covering his eyes at the nasty image this douche put in his head.

"Can you stop being a perv for one moment and listen, don't harm anyone or I swear to god, Imma put you in a sandbox"

"Is that like a Star Wars reference or a time reference, because I feel like it is"

"What?"
