Here's my next and final chapter to my Injustice fic. Despite the Ground Zero comics and Poison Ivy's role as a villainess in the Injustice 2 game, I still stand by this fic. It's non-canon, but who cares?

Barbara and Harleen rode through the streets of Gotham with Harleen feeding directions to Barbara of Ivy's botanical garden location. No Regime soldiers were seen anywhere because, as of their Superman's defeat, they had to disperse. Smart move considering the presence of the original Superman and what he would do to them if they kept terrorizing civilians.

"Great, huh?" Harleen said loudly over the motorcycle's loud engine.

"What's great?" Barbara asked loudly.

"No Regime soldiers in sight! They all ran away like a bunch of pussies when the other Superman showed up and fixed the mess!" Harleen said.

"I know! Glad to not see them for once!" Barbara said back.

"Me too! It's like music to my ears even if it's just this motorcycle of yours doing all the noise. I'd rather hear that than gunfire, sirens and screams!"

Soon, they arrived at their destination. Upon seeing the building, Harleen began to experience flashbacks of the day she spoke with Ivy about being bored and wanting to loot and destroy things to pass the time. Ivy refused and something she said gave Harleen the idea of seeing, and then kidnapping, Billy Batson for personal amusement and not in a sick way.

"Is this the place?" Barbara asked.

"Yeah. She's gotta be in there. I'm surprised that Supes and his merry men haven't destroyed it as a way of cutting Ivy off from nature things." said Harleen.

The two women walked inside the garden entrance.

"Is she here?" Barbara asked.

"Only one way to find out." Harleen said. "IVY!"

Nothing.

"Pammie! It's me! You here?" the clown woman called out.

"Ohhh, Paaaam-miiiie?" Harleen called in sing-song.

Suddenly, they heard a slithering sound.

"Look!" Barbara said and pointed to a vine slithering away.

"It's her!" Harleen said with a grin and she followed it with Barbara behind her.

When they reached the main area of the botanical gardens, they looked around for Ivy until they entered a large room with a dome on top.

"There she is!" Harleen said and pointed to a green-skinned woman. They saw Ivy cleaning a window and listening to an MP3 player while holding herself up with one of her vines. The music player she used explained why she didn't respond to Harleen's shouting, because she could not hear her.

However, despite this, Ivy suddenly stopped cleaning and Harleen guessed that the vine that spotted them was telling Ivy she had company.

Ivy turned around and saw her clown friend and the female caped crusader standing below her.

"Harleen!" Ivy said and had another vine lower her to the ground so she could see them better.

Harleen ran over and gave Ivy a big hug.

"Ivy! I'm so glad you're still alive!" Harleen said.

"Of course I'm still alive. Why would you think I was dead?" Ivy asked.

"Well because of Supes and his group doin' more bad things and stuff. I was worried for a while that he had bust in here earlier and burn this place down or pour weedkiller crap on ya or somethin'." Harleen said.

Ivy looked at Barbara, dressed in her Batgirl costume.

"Why is she here?" Ivy asked.

"I needed a ride in order ta get here and she was the only one available ta drive as my bike got destroyed." said Harleen.

Barbara cautiously glared at Poison Ivy, unsure if she was friend or foe despite the circumstances in the world. Harleen made her choice, but what of Ivy? While Harleen may have been a new addition to the light side, Ivy's allegiance was unknown to anyone except the jester woman.

Poison Ivy approached Barbara, making the heroine nervous and made her want to reach for something from her belt to fight the plant woman with.

Harleen appeared certain nothing bad was going to happen. But she hoped Ivy didn't go hostile toward her new Bat-friend and would hate to have to fight Ivy if necessary.

"Hello Miss Gordon. Yes, I know who you are as I do with Batman, a.k.a. Bruce Wayne, but rest assured, there's no need to be nervous around me. Like Harleen, I too dropped my, uh . . . act . . . a long time ago." Ivy said to her.

"Yeah Babs. She's like me, a good girl now." Harleen said, resting her elbow on Ivy's shoulder with confidence and mentally sighing with relief over Ivy being nice to Barbara.

Barbara thought about it and accepted her answer.

"Okay, I'll bite." she said.

"Excellent!" Harleen said. "Now, the first order of business is . . . what do we do now that Superjerk and his band of misfits are all in the super-slammer?"

"Well, I still have some work to do with my plants. But when I'm done, perhaps we can do something together to celebrate Superman's defeat." Ivy said.

"Like go out for drinks or pizza or watch a movie? We can do that safely now that the Regime jerks are outta the picture, Red." Harleen said.

"I'd like that." Ivy said and turned to Barbara. "How about you? Care to join us?"

"You want me to join you and Harleen?" Barbara asked.

"Of course. We're friends now, aren't we? As barbaric as Superman was, his hostile takeover also ended our villain/hero feud like it did with Harleen and Batman. That's one good thing that came out of this abhorrent mess." Ivy said.

Barbara had to admit it was true. As bad as it sounded, if the events that led to Superman's domination over the world had not happened, Harleen and Ivy would still be enemies with her and Batman and the old battles between the heroes and villains would continue.

"Of course we are, Ivy." said Barbara.

"Whaddya say, Babs? Wanna join Red and I in a girl's night out?" Harleen asked her.

Both former villains stared at Barbara for her answer.

"How can I refuse? I'm in." she said.

Ivy smiled while Harleen squealed and hugged both women together.

Barbara never thought she'd be okay to spend time alongside two of the Bat-family's former foes.

"Splendid. Well, I'd better get back to my work. Feel free to explore the gardens to pass the time." Ivy said.

After spending 30 minutes in the gardens, Ivy had concluded her work and the three women exited the building and prepared for their day together. For once, Barbara was wanting to get to know Ivy better now that they were no longer enemies.

The female Bat, the botanist and the former psychiatrist walked over to the nearest restaurant for a bite to eat.

They sat down and a waitress, who was familiar with the three but was informed about Ivy's change by Harleen, took their orders and went to prepare them.

"Hey Red, don't'cha wanna know about Catwoman?" Harleen said while they were waiting for their food.

Ivy told her all she knew of Selina Kyle's defection to the Regime, stunning the clown woman that her botanist friend already knew before her.

"How long have you known?" Barbara asked.

"A Regime soldier was caught snooping around my garden one day and I detained him and broke him into revealing what he knew of the Regime, unwillingly spilling Selina's membership with them in the process much to my surprise. That's how I learned of what became of her. I never thought she would dump her crime-fighting, billionaire sugar daddy for the group trying to take him down." Ivy replied.

"You didn't kill that soldier, did you?" Barbara asked.

"I wanted to for his intruding at first, but I felt that would have drawn Superman's attention if he figured one of his own was missing too long and that was one of the last things I wanted, so I wiped the man's memories of me and most of his life and I sent him away. I haven't seen him since and I don't really care where he is at the moment or ever." Ivy said.

"Selina shouldn't have ditched our group just because of an itty-bitty torture session. I've been tortured plenty a' times and yet I never left Joker. Until now, that is." she said.

"That reminds me, Harleen. I heard that another Joker from the same parallel universe as the other Superman came to this world. How'd that turn out for you?" Ivy asked, wanting to know how her clown friend felt about the psychotic clown she used to love.

"I admit that I was angry at him and even fought him when I thought he was a fake, but eventually, I became happy he was around and I accepted and fell for him again. Later on during the war, I started to realize my wrongness about him, especially after he tried to murder me after I messed up on a task of his and dumped him outta my life for good and sent his ass back where he belongs, in the other realm." Harleen said.

"What? He tried to kill you?!" Ivy questioned worriedly.

"Unfortunately. I was saved at the last minute by Lex Luthor and after a short rumble between them, I took Joker's knife and attempted to stab the asshole clown to death, but Lex calmed me down. I took Joker back to the Insurgency holding cells until we found a way to send him back." Harleen said. She also didn't bother to tell about her brawl and reformation of her other self.

"You finally got over him?" Ivy asked.

"Yup and I'm damn proud of it!" Harleen said proudly.

"It's true. Harleen no longer worships Joker." said Barbara.

"Wow! Congratulations, Harleen! You finally got rid of that moron clown for good!" Ivy said and patted the jester on the back happily.

"Thanks, Red! I still look clownish now, but it now has a new meaning for me, a non-Joker meaning." said Harleen.

"Hey, what's that?" Ivy asked and pointed to a scar on Harleen's side.

Harleen looked at it and remembered it.

"Oh, that was from the fight I told you I had against the other Joker. During the fight, he stabbed me there with his knife. It hurt a lot and I cleaned it up when I returned to the clan hideout." she explained.

"He stabbed you?" Ivy questioned.

"Only a little. I'm lucky he didn't get any important parts in my body like my stomach, kidneys and who knows what else." she said.

"Oh, I'm so glad you're alright." Ivy said.

"Me too. My wound was nothin' compared ta the serious ass-kickin' I gave him minutes before he was sent away." Harleen said.

"How hard did you beat him up?" Ivy wanted to know.

Harleen leaned closer to her plant friend and said, "A lot ta give him a huge hospital bill that only Bats himself could pay off."

Ivy gasped in joy at that. She wished she was there to have witnessed Harleen beating the holy hell out of her ex-lover, even if he was from another realm.

"Thank you for watching out for her." Ivy said to Barbara.

"Glad to." Barbara said.

"Despite your criminal past Harleen, how come you're not in jail? I'm glad you're not, don't get me wrong, but I need to know how you and Batman straightened things out with each other and allowed you into the Insurgency?" Ivy asked.

"It wasn't easy ta convince Batsy I was friendly considering all the crap I used ta do ta him, but he later saw new light in me and he let me in his club and now we're 'GSHF''s." she explained shortly.

"'GSHF''s?" Barbara asked in confusion.

"'Great Super Hero Friends'." Harleen replied.

"Did she always make up terms like that when you two were villains?" Barbara asked Ivy.

"Sometimes. She even once addressed me as her 'BPBFL', which, to her, stood for 'Best Plant Buddy For Life'." Ivy said with a smile.

"And ya still are, Pammie." Harleen said.

Their meals came and the waitress left them be.

"Time ta chow down!" said Harleen and they ate in silence.

Five years later . . .

One night, a pod came crashing down from the snowy sky into the wilderness of unknown territory and out stepped a figure. It appeared to be a humanoid female with blonde hair and blue eyes. She was wearing clothing that looked similar to a refugees'.

She wobbled for a moment and fell to the snow-covered ground. She grew confused over the environment as she was reaching her hand out to touch the snow. She cringed upon feeling it.

The woman didn't appear to know where she was or what to do with herself.

"Where am I?" the woman said in an unknown language. It didn't sound like any language from any of the earth's nations.

Being the only one there and no danger in sight, the woman turned back to her pod and gathered a bag filled with something. She opened the bag and took out some clothing and she started to undress herself in order to put it on. Her clothing appeared to be a uniform that bore a striking resemblance to Superman's, but hers was lightly different. Like Superman's uniform, hers also had the famous/infamous "S" symbol on the chest area and a red cape on her back with the same symbol on its back with red boots that appeared feminine and light-blue gloves. From her appearance, she was obviously another Kryptonian who had also survived Krypton's demise. But was she from this dimension or the original one where the virtuous Superman was pulled from to do battle with his evil counterpart?

What was she doing here and where was she when the Regime war took place?

The nameless woman began to walk into the distance, wanting to find somebody to give her answers to everything. She was hoping that this planet was friendly to her and would welcome her with open arms.

That depended on the planet's views of Kryptonians considering what has happened five years earlier. The woman had a long journey ahead of her to find her place in this world. There would be trials. There would be errors. But one thing was for certain: she would succeed at gaining either Earth's trust and friendliness or hostility and hatred.

THE END

I've finally got this one down. Harley, Batgirl and Ivy are enjoying themselves to celebrate Earth's freedom from Superman. What new challenges await them in the future?

It's obvious of who the newcomer is in the ending. Most of Earth probably won't be so welcoming of this woman due to her link to a certain someone who terrorized the world in the name of "peace" earlier before her arrival.

I'm ending this fic right here because I'm out of new ideas for it. I had one more chapter idea a month ago, but it suddenly vanished from my brain and this is all I could think of, sorry. However, parts of this chapter was taken from my discarded idea.

Here's to Injustice 2.
