Tommy was tapping his foot impatiently, waiting for Commissioner Gordon to finally get to the point.
'Today's supposed to be my day off,' He was thinking. Tommy was bruised and tired, desperately in need of some time off. He hadn't figured out what Luthor was up to yet and he never did find out where Mad Hatter had run off to, but he didn't particularly care; he needed some rest.
Besides, he wanted to do something special for Black Canary. She had given him the greatest gift a guy can get, a threesome, and he wanted to decorate her hideout to return the favor. Plus, he was going to go down on her. He had actually been trying to get to the flower shop right before it closed when he had seen the signal in the sky.
But here he was instead, standing outside the Industrial District with Jim Gordon while he tried to explain the situation. Tommy stifled a yawn, desperate to get the evening over with. He was planning on surprising Black Canary and, finally, ask her if they could move in together.
"It's a real mess in there," Gordon was saying. "They're holding 2 of my men hostage and have threatened to blow up the entire mill if they see any GCPD presence. She only wants you, Batman."
"Who does?" Tommy asked. He hadn't been paying attention.
"Harley Quinn," Gordon said. "She's gone nuts... well, more nuts... now that Joker isn't here to focus her psychosis. She grabbed a bunch of his old crew and staged this little stunt. I think she wants revenge for... you know..."
Tommy nodded. Gordon was one of the few other people who knew that Tommy had killed the Joker and they had never really spoken about it.
"I'll take care of it," Tommy said. With a little luck, he could wrap this up and be at Black Canary's in about an hour. Harley wasn't anything to worry about.
"Batman," Gordon called after Tommy as he prepared to enter the steel mill. "Be careful. Who knows what she's got planned."
Tommy gave Gordon a dismissive wave. Don't worry about it, Gordon," He told him. "I know how to handle Harley Quinn." Tommy adjusted his twitching cock and then glided into the 2nd floor of the mill.

The last goon fell dramatically after Tommy kicked him in the jaw, his limpness making him looking like he was falling in slow motion. It struck Tommy as being very cool.
Tommy quickly pulled Harley's henchmen in a pile and tied them all together. They were dressed just as the Joker's goons were and Tommy wondered if they were the same men; henchmen have to get work somewhere, he figured. He wasn't sure if working for Harley instead of the Joker was better or worse.
The steel mill Tommy was in had been in operation before Harley & her crew had taken over the place and many of the machines were still turned on. The building was older so the heavy metal machines were blackened, and the melted steel they forged into building materials glowed a fiery orange. The building was incredibly hot and Tommy could feel himself sweating inside his thick suit.
'Better get this over with,' Tommy thought. Even beyond the police, Tommy had a score to settle with Harley Quinn. She had tricked him, after all, allowing Batgirl to get captured by The Joker and ultimately ending her career. The fact that Harley had let Tommy fuck her in the ass first didn't lessen Tommy's quest for vengeance. Harley had caused him the first real defeat of his relatively short superhero career and he wasn't going to let that slide. He was going to punish Harley, the only way he knew how. His dick continued to harden.
Tommy exited the winding maze of machines and found himself in an open space, the scorching hot mills behind him. This part of the mill was newer, not quite completed, and Tommy guessed new machines would be placed here shortly. For now, though, it was empty... except for the 2 police officers tied back-to-back in the center.
Tommy looked around but could see only the guards. He cautiously approached the guards, running the last 5 feet and quickly cutting the ropes that held the cops.
"Thanks, Batman," One of them said. "Harley Quinn was just here; she has to be close." Tommy looked once more but couldn't see her. As he looked, he heard a creaking noise above him. The two cops and Tommy looked up at once.
"Move move move!" Tommy yelled, yanking the cops off the ground. The three ran and jumped, narrowly getting out of the way of an oversized plastic ball as it crashed to the ground. The ball landed and cracked but otherwise held firm. It was intended to keep someone in, not kill them, Tommy realized.
"Shoot!" A high-pitched feminine voice yelled as she exited a door to Tommy's left. "I knew I shoulda just shot you!" Tommy ordered the cops to run and they complied, hurrying away from Tommy & Harley and heading back into the steel mill.
"Harley," Tommy said under his breath. It was indeed Harley Quinn, although not how Tommy had ever seen her. Gone was her form-fitting jumpsuit, and gone was her slutty nurse's outfit. Now she wore black leather pants and high-heeled red boots. A black corset wrapped around her waist, giving her an even more obvious hourglass frame, and her black & red bra was visible above it. Long black gloves traveled all the way up to biceps.
Harley's face, normally painted white, was now shrouded in black by a mourning veil. Tommy could see that her make-up was smeared with her mascara, evidence that she had been crying. Her hair was now black, although still in her trademark pigtails. She looked... sad.
"I've been waiting a long time for this, B-Man!" Harley yelled, raising a revolver towards Tommy. "You're gonna pay for what you did to Mistah J!"
"Harley, calm down," Tommy said, holding up his hands. He took a step towards her. If he could just get close to her, act calm, lower her guard...
A gunshot rang out, landing between Tommy's legs. Tommy jumped and looked at Harley with wild eyes.
"Hey, what the fuck?!" He yelled, his composure vanished.
"Don't move!" Harley yelled back. "You killed my beloved when all he wanted to do was make people laugh!"
"Make people laugh?" Tommy said. "He killed people, Harley! Do you not see why that's not funny?"
Harley looked down and furrowed her brow. "Maybe you had to be there," She said finally.
Tommy shook his head. "He was a murderer and a liar," Tommy said. "He let me fuck you because he thought it would be funny. And he let you get imprisoned in Arkham just to get back at me."
Harley shook her head quickly. She said, "You didn't know him like I did. He was different. Caring, kind... he had a lot of problems but I could have fixed him!"
Now it was Tommy's turn to shake his head. "He was using you, Harley," Tommy told her. He took a step forward and this time Harley didn't stop him. "He didn't care about you. He just wanted something to fuck."
"No," Harley said softly. "That's not true."
Tommy took a few more cautious steps forward. He was about 10 minutes away from her now. "You need to forget about him," Tommy said. His dick was aching inside his suit now. "Forget about him and move on. Find something healthier to do, maybe."
Harley's gun slowly dipped and she seemed to be thinking. "Move on...?" She asked the air.
