"Hm... I don't know... You seem more like the knock off... Deathstroke would have killed me already." She smirked "You're soft Deadpool... Or should I say Kiddiepool?" She figured if she was going to die go down with a little dignity left. She used the distraction to think of a plan. With both blades at her head, Batgirl didn't stand much of a chance. "Well..." She said, her voice quieter "I must say... you are an impressive fighter... Never in my life had I been beaten..." She was running numbers through her head as she spoke. How much pressure could a batarang withstand? She fingered the pouch in her utilty belt for a moment waiting for an opportunity.

"I'm not soft," Deadpool said, his voice surprised and a tad petulant, "I'm just thinking." He wasn't soft, was he? ...Of course not. "And take your hands away from the belt, kiddo; I'm not a freaking amateur, as you have so graciously pointed out." He thought for a couple more seconds. "Okay. Onetime only offer, Cassie: you go and lure our mutual clown-- and his money-- out of that bar, and I will magnanimously refrain from adding your pretty little head to my bowling ball collection."

"Oh joy... It's such a splended offer." She replied sarcastically "Help the Merenary trying to kill me. Or get killed by said mercenary... choices.. choices..." She grumbled a little peeved over getting caught going for her belt. "Enlighten me on what you plan to do with the Joker once I bring him here..? It's only fair..." She mocked with a smirk.

"I plan on getting paid," Deadpool said reasonably, "And I don't think he has any intention of giving me a cent. Normally I'd just go in and take it, but there's this..." Normally he would have gestured vaguely with his hands, but they were somewhat occupied, so he just paused. "Creepy... skeleton... thing... In there with him. It's really creepy," he added defensively. "Anyway, the splendid offer is expiring fast."

"Fine..." she replied she was still ticked about the situation with the Joker earlier and for all she cared Deadpool could kill the b*****d. "You mind...?" She asked pointing to the blades at her neck.

Deadpool put the sword at the back of her neck away in one smooth motion, but kept the other at her throat. "You have to pinky swear," he said brightly, offering her his free pinky.

Batgirl stared at him in disbelief. Was he serious? "I pinky swear..." she grumbled taking his free pinky. "Now where do you want me to lure him?" she asked changing the subject only slightly. No one needed to know the day Cassandra Cain pinky swore with one of her enimies. How degrading.

Deadpool immediately took the sword away from her throat and slid it back into its sheath. "You know him better than I do," he pointed out, "But I think it'll be fine as long as you get him far away from the bar." He paused. "How about four blocks down that way?" he asked, pointing.

"Alright." She pulled a line out of her belt and shoot it in the direction of the bar. "See ya..." She mumbled testing the line before swinging down towards the front door. She landed silently outside the bar and crept in taking in the surroundings. She couldn't believe what she was doing, why was she listening to Deadpool? The only thing Batgirl knew was that Batman couldn't find out. Him or Nightwing, d**k still had a grudge against her. Finally she approached the Joker.
"I can't believe you call those mercenaries..." She hissed walking up to the Joker.

Joker looked at her, without a shred of surprise on his face. "Let me guess... Rhino got tied up by your Spider friend, and you managed to strike a deal with Deadpool? It couldn't be the other way around; Rhino's just too stupid to pull THAT off. Pity really, I was really liking Deadhead. I was thinking about asking him to partner up with me and some of the other Rogues we all love so much to help me take down Bats. Between Hush and Bane, I'm SURE we could find your hideout. And odds are, at least ONE of those two are in this Universe." Joker shrugged. "But I digress. They have both failed their contract. I am not obliged to pay either of them at this point." Joker pulled the pin out of the grenade on the table and buried it inside the money. Suddenly, the entire pile burst into flames as the incendiary grenade ignited, sending all of that $10,000 straight to whatever Hell awaits money. "Oh, hold on, I'm sorry, I never asked you if Deadman out there made the money part of your agreement. He did, didn't he? Here, let me answer the question for you: HE DID. HE'S A MERCENARY. OF COURSE HE DID. And on top of it, him being more or less another me, he was a bit easy to predict. If it had been Deathstroke or Deadshot, though, you'd be dead. Shame, to tell you the truth, getting rid of Batgirl would have DEFINITELY been worth paying for. Oh, well." He pulled the flower out from his jacket lapel and smelled it. "Do you like it?" Joker asked her, just before a thick green fog erupted out of it, threatening to fill up the room. "Heh heh heh... I hope you do! This isn't my usual lethal Joker Venom, though, oh, no! THIS... is my insanity-creating Joker Toxin! Remember when Deadshot was going around shooting people for no reason with a smile painted on his mask? THIS made that happen! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" The diabolical clown might not have won, but he wasn't about to let HER win, either.
(( You HAD to have known that the grenade was still there for a reason. Besides, Joker wouldn't leave the fate of ANY Bat in the hands of another without having an escape plan... ))

"Well. That was certainly interesting."
Agent Zero stood on the roof, in the shadows, about twenty feet away. "I never knew you were the type to strike a deal over completing his mission. Kind of disappointing, but OK." He walked towards Deadpool slowly, watching his reaction.

Deadpool shrugged. "He wouldn't have paid me," he said evenly, "He would have set the cash on fire, or something." He paused. "Actually, he might still set it on fire." He shrugged. "Anyway, the main point was fun. Batchick is way cuter than the clown. And," he added in a conspiratorial whisper, "I only promised that I wouldn't add her head to my bowling ball collection. I can still add it to my severed head collection."

Zero laughed briefly. "Very true. I see you're still your same old, conniving, cutthroat self. That's what I needed, actually. I came to find you to ask you to help me out with something."

Deadpool raised an eyebrow and leaned casually back on the wall behind him. "What kind of something? Funfunstabbystab kind of something?" he asked. The tone of his voice was overly serious, like the guy playing the president of the United States in one of those armageddon flicks. What was that one... Independence Day? No, that had been lame....

 Reaper watched the girl walk in and turned his attention back to Joker. He smiled when he burnt the money, and laughed a bit as the gas began to fill the room. Being what he was, he didn't need air to breathe, so gas didn't effect him. At least not while he was in his Reaper form, never really tried it while he was human. Going insane wouldn't exactly be a bad thing anyway. Hehe, my what fun he would have with that.
The Reaper that had been watching Batgirl and Deadpool continued to watch as the other man approached Deadpool. Now would be a perfect opportunity to strike if he wanted more power. He sank into his cloak and slid into a stream of flames. The fire moved across the concrete and towards the two men.
The Reaper that was watching Sapphire and Rhino also slid into a flame and moved closer to the two. Rather than attack, this one thought it would be better to just get closer and wait. What with all the nice looking men in uniforms surrounding them, they'd make an exellent distraction for her.
