He had leonine hair like fiery red lion's manes on top of his head, which were loose and bulky, with undulations and looked like a huge blanket of red hair.

- I have a plan, would you like to know ...? - He asked.

All but Joker have moved away, perhaps fear or apprehension.

Seeing that he had vertical pupils, and a third eye on his forehead, if they suspected he was not human, they were sure, everyone watched.

The one who was a man in a red suit, and goat horns, twisted on either side, a satin suit, shiny shoes.

It was obvious that in no time a normal, normal man, who knows, would do any business with someone like him, that only a madman would accept to propose a business with.

- Say what you propose. - Said Joker .

This was the madman who accepted the deal. - Say I want to hear. - The clown spoke.

- I propose to attract and corner to use Bruce Wayne as a bait, and to surround them, it can be in the Wayne tower, and to insert my serum. - He said. “That would attract every member of the Justice League, and it would neutralize every one of them, with the serum. - He said.

- What does this serum do? - Questioned the clown with all confidence in the man more than suspicious.

- He would make them go crazy, have hallucinations, and you could do whatever you want with him, the man would be immobile, docile and would be a little lamb. - He said.

- I attack the Wayne tower, you surround Bruce Wayne, the man accuses you, you use him and his shareholders, and each of them would be used as bait, in addition to getting rid of Bruce Wayne for a few hours.

Then, you can beat and neutralize the justice league that would be surrounded and drugged, you would be neutralized by a good two weeks of hallucinations.

Good idea. - Said Joker , that without realizing it, everyone there was moving away in fear, the man had a demonic syrup from a demon, and that syringe had a shiny silver material, and it looked like something that shouldn't be a simple hallucinogen.

- Do you want to participate...? - Questioned the clown.

- No. - They said each one, they moved away as if the devil runs away from the cross.

In those two days in a row, Joker gathered a large number of henchmen and gun, sent a warning letter towards the Gotham police station threatening to attack Batman.

They did not listen, because after all, he always did that, as was usual and customary, the bat always got away, solved the problem, and none of them had their plan in place.

Acid paint, paralyzing daisies and bursts of hallucinogenic confetti, these were his new weapons, bombs of light that were machine guns with piercing pins, in addition to the normal bullets, Joker , prepared a party.

It was rare that kind of thing, nobody paid much attention, after all, nor did they care about the other warning that would attack Bruce Wayne, they thought that somehow, Bruce Wayne was well protected .

If you want something wrong, repeat the same thing, because you know that nobody would pay attention.

Anyway, Bruce received a letter, ignoring with all his might, he was leaving his cooking class, and heading towards Wayne Tower.

He had a meeting, he himself did nothing at first, when at last he took it upon himself to ignore what would happen.

Anyway...

That same week, Wayne Tower was attacked by Joker , the clown prince of crime stormed Wayne Tower in the middle of a meeting, climbing each floor which in turn used the gas to kill anyone who got in his way .

They were not alone, there over a thousand employees were taken hostage, they went in with everything destroying everything around them, their hooded henchmen dressed in black with black protections and shirts.

They were bulletproof clothes, wearing vests and masks and makeup with clothes lined with protection while toggle, machine guns, which they used to invade Wayne Tower, shooting everyone who tried to stop him.

At the end of that hour, when the henchmen in colorful clown clothes, who killed around 10 security guards, before invading the 15 floors of that building, and proceed to the presidential meeting, with Joker taking everyone hostage.

Joker burst in with his manic beast smile, he looked full of confetti with an entrance throwing bombs of acid paint, his new batch of jokes, not funny.

Before they managed to climb up to the top floor, where the meeting was taking place, the sound of machine guns firing was enough, in Bruce's opinion, to call, not only security, but the police, and break the justice system. .

The henchmen arrived first, on each of the floors, many died throwing acid paint, stunning light bombs and Bruce made his cue to run in the direction that other shareholders ran, Bruce ran through the corridors, being chased and going in the direction the staircase, by the fire exit.

The man was chased, and while he was using his communicator, at that hour, he made a more than urgent call towards Superman.

- If any time, it was now. - Bruce said. - That was the right time. - Bruce said.

- If that was the cue for you, come, there is no better time, this is the time, that I need you most. - Bruce said.

- Kal. Bruce shouted. - At that hour, anyone would serve, as long as he arrived.

Apparently, the other heroes did not arrive on time.

At that time, between descending flights of stairs, and being chased by henchmen clowns, he was cornered and chased, falling with a shot and a stunning daisy in his back, and being caught and then taken, towards the elevator and being thrown in direction to

- Hello, ladies and gentleman. - Said the clown. - I came to bring the grace of my presence and beautiful company. - Said. - Now, let's see how long the justice league gets here.

There were just over 15 survivors who were led towards a corner of the 15th floor, then tied up and made of bait, it seemed.

- You don't have to die, unless I change my mind. - Said the manic clown.

- You don't have to have them here. - Bruce said putting himself forward, stunned, when he put himself as the voluntary bait.

- Oh, Mr. Wayne, I have a special gift selected for you, I will give you, a new drug that will make you more susceptible to my dreams, we will be equal in kind, I will have a little brother. - He said.

What he said, in reality separates himself from reality, totally, as to what happened next, Bruce knew that nothing good would come out of suspicious drugs, that was a big long and thick syringe.

To the one who had a pearlescent and shiny liquid, it was too strange to think, that something good would come out of there, none of that would come out less than suspicious of the substances created by Joker , and being the crazy brother of a clown was out of the question.

When do you need the league, when do you not have it at the right time?

Bruce tried to resist, he fought the best he could with those henchmen, that he was disarmed and subdued by ten men, such was his fight.

As promised to what he realized that it was all a lie, everyone there was deceived by promises, and happiness did not come as they said it would, pressed when Joker came in front of him and stuck her to his horror, in his chest directly into your heart.

What should happen, was totally what happened, he was ..., the clown and the campaigns released him, hugged by Joker , Bruce was stunned, seconds and in the middle of two minutes of stun, which followed if it was too late , too much or not, happened one after the other.

Joker lost his smile, Bruce gasped turned his face towards the ceiling and spat blood, choked would be the least, he spat, regurgitated and towards the clown who had his face covered in blood, Bruce staggered back, it was at that moment between the near loss of consciousness.

- That's not what he promised. – Bruce started to spit more blood, his eyes, ears and nose filled with blood when his pants got wet, it was hemorrhaging anyway, when Bruce stumbled backwards, his legs lost strength, weakened and fell backwards.

It was too late anyway, being late, that was when Superman, breaking a wall, Bruce fell back, feeling his heart stop, one of the other heroes that Bruce saw was Flash.

Everything disappeared, the sounds disappeared and everything around him darkened, before consciousness caught him, he was caught by the arms of the steel man, distant echoes were heard, but the darkness finally caught him.

In the end, Bruce had fifteen cardiac arrests, as fast as Superman can, took him towards Gotham hospital and took the syringe towards the hospital to study.

They were committed to finding out what the substance was, Joker was taken to the police station, and interrogated.

The clown was relatively docile, unbeknownst to the justice league, he had already surrendered the joker henchmen , but there were over a hundred people inside the building, all of whom were employees.

What among his historical laughs, in which he himself could not say, who made the substance, since he himself had not produced it, simply as he said towards a policeman.

Between interrogation, the substance was unknown, no substance or raw material known to man, at least currently, which was promised a crazy cheap towards his victim, wanted to attract Batman and the justice league.

The doctors had to intubate the man, clean his genetic material, Bruce was intubated, he did not breathe and he did not regain consciousness for the last week in a row.

He was called specialists, in addition to a biochemical doctor and geneticist who was spending a few seasons in Gotham, Bruce Wayne was intubated, his lung, heart were compromised, 89% of his kidneys were collapsing, his bronchioles were compromised.

His lungs and compromised heart, needing to connect to devices in order to be kept alive, looked like the substance was attaching itself to each cell.

The bladder stopped functioning, compromising the functioning of his organism, several organs were having massive hemorrhage, which needed to be kept connected to machines, needed to clear the lungs, and the windpipe that closed.

Superman, Flash, every member of the justice league who heard the distress call but arrived late, failed to prevent this from happening.

There was a community burial of more than one hundred people, including shareholders, businessmen and employees who were inside the twenty security guards' building, fifteen were killed in the attack.

Ebraim Heinrich , was one of the best specialists in biochemistry, who were one of the best specialists in biology, organic chemistry and happened to be there, then.

At that time, they were getting ready for the job to do tests and research about the substance that would be in some way compromising and poisoning Bruce Wayne's body.

Alfred did not know about this, through Amasteus , his travel buddy kept him busy, away from any international news, so he didn’t, in the meantime.

At that time, Amasteus who kept control of Wayne companies and had a way of controlling Bruce's finances also kept Bruce's children away, at that point, they were estranged.

There were tests and experiments to study the substance, which were somehow adapting and linking the cells and the deterioration of the organism, Amasteus and Ebraim kept it a secret from justice and kept it

secret from the whole setting.

Bruce Wayne really died, around 12 times, his heart stopped for five minutes each time, to be restarted, Ebraim, was overloaded, each time, connected to respirators.

In addition to oxygen probes, catheters and hoses, intubated and with food and nutrient probes, which kept him alive.

At that time, Ebraim was studying and researching the substance and he had barely figured out what it would do, its effects were unknown, considering that it did not seem known at all.

What made it difficult to discover a countermeasure or a vaccine or a serum, which left him hooked up to devices, without breathing and with hemorrhage that all of his main organs were compromised.

Ebraim remembered a similar substance a long time ago, when he was still in concentration camps, he was one of the few survivors of the Nazi camps, he was one of the Holocaust Jews, who survived in the camps.

At least until the second order, in which he was now, he was dealing with the same substance, but due to the implications, he could not say what they were.

As for what he discovered, there were too many questions, which would lead to the situation where he could not say how much he knew, and where they would take them.

The substance was taken to his laboratory by Amasteus , who chose him to supervise and stay in charge of the treatment, just like him, the man seemed to know the origin of the substance and that of volatile chemistry.

In terms of how his idea came about, and who had taken it towards Joker , there were only two people alive, who knew its real effects , and what would be its results if they knew, Ebraim, found some excuse to isolate him in a place further away.

As everything that he said was contagious, then, he took him in a remote wing directly under his supervision that it would not be good for the substance to act alone.

Those were the two most worrying weeks of his life, because everything depended on the organism.

When trying to fight against a substance that could kill him, and that strange chemical, that foreign body that, in case, Bruce would not be able to connect in his cells and his organism could not resist, he could die, if he did not adapt.

In the midst of this, each member of the justice league, entered secretly, without being aware that they were being monitored and recorded .

So he visited them, Ebraim and Amasteus saw each of them, weeping on top of a body on top of a bed,

Knowing that there was a stabilization time, whoever did it, would leave everything prepared, for the right moment and due to their knowledge that it would be kept under lock and key.

He was committed that anyone would be frightened by the effects that would last a certain time, everything so that until the substance was bound to the organism.

When everything happened until the body stabilized, until then, it seemed that it would actually die, due to the organism's struggle in its attempt to resist.

Now, thinking about it, it had been over a hundred years that he had not seen its symptoms, results and effects, yes, it could go wrong, but it could work, if it could not bring the true meaning to the moon of the day.

He was studying the effects of the substance under the microscope, until someone, a smart paparazzi, knew that he entered the room, apparently with the help of an intern, or an employee, taking pictures of a man on a respirator, unconscious and connected to devices. .

Those were his most worrying weeks, if the body didn't adapt or fight, Bruce would die ...

Leaked to several newspapers around the world for a while, Wayne's stock plummeted, which the American stock market was down there with.
