Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

Chapter 677: To the Top

After the dramatic event, Ajax waved his hand and immediately a table and two chairs appeared in the Hot air balloon.

"Let's eat something, Harleen," Ajax said.

She took a seat, while the city light brightly lit in the backdrop. She seemed less crazed now and had a genuine smile on her face.

*CLICK*

She suddenly heard a camera shutter noise and looked at Ajax holding a camera. "What was that for?"

"Nothing, you look like a panda and this face is worth remembering," Ajax replied cheekily.

Harley's eyes widened, god knows from where she took out a mirror and looked at her face. "Oh no, I do look like a panda, a depressed panda at that."

"Haha, here, wipe it with this." Ajax gave her a pack of wet towels and then brought some food from Phixheim.

Soon, hot food was steaming in front of them. Harley Quinn had also gotten rid of her whole makeup. Now she looked like her original self and it was much prettier than with her facepaint.

"You know, this style suits you better. I like it." He complimented.

"Thanks... I might just keep it like this from now on." She said.

"By the way, I've been noticing the strange things you are able to do. You are obviously not some simple con artist. Then how are you doing all this? Who are you?" she asked with genuine curiosity.

Ajax chuckled, "I'm just a simple guy with extraordinary parents and ultra extraordinary grandparents. You would simply not believe me even if I told you about myself."

"Try me, I've seen a lot of crazy stuff in my life." She insisted.

"Okay, don't call me a liar later. I am Ajax Maxim Universe. My grandpa is God. Not some simple Zeus or Odin, but a real God. Those who can decide the fate of entire universes. My dad is also a godly person by I don't know what he actually does. I am not a god, but I am extremely strong." Ajax explained.

"How strong do you mean by extremely strong?" She inquired.

"I can easily destroy this planet by punching the ground," Ajax replied.

Silence ensued. Harley had no idea what to think or say. Her jaw stayed open.

"I told you you won't believe me." Ajax shrugged.

*Cough*

"It's not that I don't believe you. It's just... a lot to digest. So I'm having dinner with a demi-god or something?" She asked.

"I don't know what defines a demi-god. I'm strong, that's all I know." Ajax said.

After that, they ate dinner. Then Ajax asked about her past, "Harleen, tell me, you're certainly not a crazy girl. You do not seem to be a murdering maniac either, so why did you chose this path?"

Harley silently looked down at her food. Thinking about her past. Then she started speaking. "I was a fool. A big, big fool. I'm sure I still am but at that point, I was at my peak.

"I was a psychiatric intern at Arkham Asylum. A model student, in addition to receiving high grades in college, I was also a dedicated gymnast, winning a scholarship to Gotham City University. While researching the lunatics at Arkham, I became fascinated with one particular inmate.

"So, being my dumber self, I ambitiously volunteered to analyse him, I pleaded with the doctors at Arkham for three months before I could treat him. But I was in for a show.

"He turned out to be a bigger psychiatric than I was. He sweet-talked a lot with me and the thin line separating us from a patient and doctor vanished. After he gained my sympathy during many sessions, he seduced me, causing me to fall madly in love with him.

"So, I made another bad decision. I helped him escape from the asylum more than once. But those actions caused that dumb Harleen to get suspected by the authorities, who revoked my licence and placed me in my own cell. During an earthquake in Gotham City, I fled and became Harley Quinn, the sidekick of the Clown Prince of Crime himself.

"My relationship with the Joker was that of twisted love affairs. The Joker was abusive and manipulative towards me, but, just as often, there was evidence of camaraderie, playfulness, and genuine affection towards me.

"But he would only use m-my body for intense sexual intercourse. I was the only person who managed to become intimate on such a long term basis with the Joker, who, in turn, displayed occasional moments of confusion and discomfort which resulted in his attempts to kill me. One time, when the Joker felt discomfort with me being so close to me, he sent me off in a rocket. I survived and came back to him eventually, but then he did it again and that was the final straw.

"Now that I think of it, I realise that he never loved me. There is no word for love in his dictionary. I was just a tool he was using. A dumb girl so easily manipulated by his words. I feel sick of myself

"Am I boring you with my rambling?" She asked with saddened eyes.

Ajax shook his head, "No at all, in fact, I feel angry for you. On that guy... batman too. Only if he had dealt with Joken permanently, you would have never met him."

He then looked at Gotham Cityscape. "This whole city is a clusterfuck of wrong choices. It's about time someone spanked it to the right path."

Then he looked at Harley directly in the eyes. She felt so compelled by him for some reason.

"Harleen, I will be honest with you. I don't want you to ever go back to that path again. So, it's time we redeem you of your sins. What do you say, want to come with me on an adventure to clean this city of crimes?" He asked and extended his hand.

She didn't think for a second and held it. But to her shock, Ajax pulled her closer. He grabbed her waist.

"Are you afraid of heights?" He asked.

"No." She said.

"Good." Ajax didn't say anything and simply jumped out of the hot air balloon. Instantly both of them started falling down.

"WHAAAT THE...." She exclaimed and breathed faster.

But just as they were about to touch the ground, Ajax flew up. Ajax didn't have powers of flying, he was just flapping his feet with a precision and enough strength to fly.

Harley was amazed. They went higher and higher. Soon, the whole city was in their view.

"Huh, it looks depressing even from this height." She scoffed.

"Haha, that is what we will change." Ajax laughed and again took a deep dive, making her shout as if she was on a rollercoaster ride.

...

While this was going on, Hats was trying to impress Catwoman. He was also having a date with her. But he was not emotional at all because Catwoman was already a decent person. In fact, they were having too much fun together.

"Are you sure you want to race me?" Hats asked.

"Of course, as long as you don't cheat and just fly up," Selina replied.

Both of them stood in front of the Wayne Tower. She was wearing her skintight Catwoman suit while Hats was wearing normal clothes but with an eye cover. He didn't really care about his identity being exposed anyway.

"Sure, I won't cheat." He assured.

"Cool, the loser has to pay for dinner." She said. They were both going to race who can climb to the top of the building faster.
