Reaper walked in and sat down at the table with the others with a small grin on his face. This place was practically pulsating with fear...ah, like music. A perfect setting to eat. He regarded the menue a second or two, then put it down. Really didn't matter to him, as long as it was bloody or burnt to a crisp.
He senced something and turned towards the doorway a moment. One of his other duplicates stood in the doorway with a smile on his face. He turned back around in his seat and the copy melted into it's own shadow and moved towards his. After it merged with his, he paused for a moment, then started chuckling to himself. Well, it's too bad the original didn't see that little show with the puppet. Well, then again he probably wouldn't have let him go with the mood he was in.

(( Heh heh heh... He really DID like Ventriloquist, didn't he? ))
Joker listened to Gossamer's request, and came up with an idea. "Hey, why don't we just order three of everything, one rare, one medium, and one well done, and just eat whatever we think looks good! Waiter, you go do that... And please make sure of a couple things... First, that your best spicy entree be placed in front of Gossamer, here," he said, gesturing to the beautiful sorceress, "...Second, that the waiter over there," the clown pointed at the waiter Pixie was eyeing, "...be brought to Pixie..." He gestured to Pixie. "...Third, that you bring out some soft foods specially for my straw-stuffed comrade..." The clown pointed at Scarecrow. "And last, but not least, and this IS an important one, so pay attention, the girl there..." Joker motioned towards Rosie. "...Gets whatever she wants. If you serve it and she asks for it, she gets it. If you DON'T serve it, and she asks for it, you go get it FOR her, as quickly as possible. Failure in ANY of these stipulations will result in your immediate deaths. This, of course, does NOT, by any stretch of the imagination, mean that following these will guarantee your continued existence, but will certainly help... Heh heh heh heh heh..."

 Pixie's grin started to spread across her face as the waiter was pulled forward. "W-what do you want?" He asked, his voice shaking in fear. Pixie merely smiled, oh how much fun she could have with the waiter... She met his gaze and her eyes started to glow purple as she dug through his mind. "See that knife over there?" She muttered "I dare you to stick it through your chest." For a spilt second she saw hesitation in his eyes but the resistance was soon squashed as he walked over to the table and picked up the knife. Once he held it in his hand it shook as his consious fought her control. "It's fine..." She purred "We tested the knife and its plastic. I just want to show my friends a trick." Instantly he shoved the knife into his chest. Pixie turned around and ignored the thrashing and screams from behind her. He'd gotten control over his body again, But a little too late if you ask me. She mused. She loved the thoughts of people dying. In the few seconds before they went cold Pixie learned everything about them in a rush of panic and chaos. In a way it was like an abstract painting to her. Beautiful yet dark. Sadistic, yet joyful.((I edited =P))

 "Now that's an idea." Gossamer said, looking back to Joker after his suggestion on the food. She smiled a bit and looked back to the waiter a moment, a man in a suit walking towards them caught her eye. Big guy...not quite Kingpin big, but the suit and stick reminded her of him. Now that she thought about it, that was on the to-do list. She glanced over at Pixi and the waiter a moment, and grinned a bit as she watched. Rosie peeked up over her menu as Joker started to order the food and everything. She stared at him a moment and blinked a bit when he told the waiter to get her anything she wanted. She glanced over at Gossamer and the waiter a moment, then looked back at Joker with a bit of a smile. Well, with the exception of a few things...she might end up likeing this guy. Unless of course this was just to get points with Gossamer. She looked over at Pixi and the waiter that was told to go to her. She watched for a while, then quickly turned back around in her seat and tried to focus on the menue. She frowned a bit and tried to ignore the squirming man only a few feet away from her.

Joker watched Pixie's little dispatching of the waiter, and smiled. "Pixie, I have to hand it to you, that was magnificent. We should do this more often... Heh heh heh..." She was a bloodthirsty little wench... Excellent. She also caught Rosie's glance, and smiled back at her. "I figured you and I got off on the wrong foot..." Then, he finally paid attention to the suit. He was big. Big, and familiar, for some odd reason. He looked at the man's face, and was almost taken aback when he recognised it, barely managing to hide his feeling of confusion. He DID manage it, however, instead showing a grin. "Rhino... No Batgirl head, I see..."

Rosie glanced back up at Joker and gave him a small smile. She noticed where Joker and Gossamer were looking and turned towards the large man in the suit as well. Really large...she had to look up to look at him. After a moment she figured that her neck would get tired from looking up at him and decided to stop. Really fancy suit though.

 Pixie glanced over at Scarecrow, "Hello Mr. Crane." She said smiling as the man behind her gave one last twitch before finally dying from bloodloss. Soon her attention was diverted from him to the large man who had entered. His thoughts boomed into her head, he was once Rhino who Joker had hird to kill Bratgirl. Interesting... Pixie thought to herself with a smirk, Can't wait to see how this turns out.((Hah! Finally found a good picture!))

Reaper turned and watched the waiter struggle for life on the floor with a wicked grin on his face. He waited untill the man was completely gone before turning back around and facing the others. He glanced up at the man in the suit that Joker referred to as Rhino. He leaned back in his seat and smiled a bit. "Apparently he found himself another job.".

"I was going after her, but I ran into some difficulties with my very first clients...Though the results are what you see here. I'm no longer Rhino, just call me Aleksei."
Aleksei had a new sophistication in his voice and elegance that was absent during his time as the Rhino; if it weren't for his desires and appearance being the same, Aleksei would be a totally different person. Seeing as they were all sitting down, Aleksei pulls up a chair from another table and placed the back toward the table since he liked to lean forwards. Aleksei was at the end closer to Reaper, seeing as Aleksei didn't get any bad vibes from him like Scarecrow.
Scarecrow wasn't at least bit interested in another Lex Luthor coming into this universe, so he just kept his conversation to Pixie since she seemed to have greeted him. Like from the Reaper guy, Scarecrow got this aura from Pixie that wasn't like Reaper's but rather something else entirely. Crane had a knack for sensing things around people due to his previous background in psychiatry.
"Hello Fs. Fixie...Forgive fy fronunciation."
Scarecrow was not yet use to speaking with no lips and felt like apologizing to Pixie for his inability to pronounce her name correctly. The whole thing wasn't really Scarecrow's fault; it was War Machine's fault for using tranquilizers and a flamethrower at the same time. Instead of just finishing him, those two burnt him alive and loaded him with round after round of tranquilizers after; they didn't deserve the title of hero and Crane wanted them to admit it. Scarecrow awaited the arrival of his ice cream since his throat was getting dry, though he didn't care what flavor since that didn't matter to him.
"You see, I robbed several banks while everyone was busy and hired some stock people to invest it in lots of high turnout stuff; I became rich within a few hours, though it did require some more money to keep up the style. Ten thousand dollars now is petty cash, Joker, but I think I got some information for you to be interested in...It involves Batman. I know what his current goal is and what he might go after in the future."
Aleksei new for a fact Batman would be busy trying to either stop Supergirl and her Symbiote like creature or trying to stop the Commissar's reincarnation as Tec. Either way, the information could be useful to the Joker and Aleksei was going to give it away for free since old Bats really pissed him off with that sonic emitter from earlier. Aleksei first wanted to see if the Joker was even interested in such information since there was a chance the Joker wouldn't like to be given information on his enemy. Aleksei knew Joker was an enemy of Batman since he wanted the death of Batgirl, so he felt obliged to give him something out of the previous task the Joker hired him to do, that and Aleksei was hungry.
"So, what do you say? Interested? It's free."

ENTER from Sapphire's Universe
Kenji landed in the middle of Gotham street and looked around, having no clue what was going on. "Where am I?" he asked himself as he looked over to see what could only be.....the freak show from a circus?

Joker visibly perked up at the word 'Batman'. "Alright, Rhi... Aleksei... Tell me what you know..." He took off the trench coat, letting it drape over the back of his chair, and then pulled out a deck of razor-cards from within his jacket, since they looked like normal cards, so no one would suspect them. He set it on the table, and then let his other hand wander close to Gossamer's, but his eyes were focused directly on Aleksei. This could prove to be useful indeed...

Gossamer had turned towards Aleksei to listen to him and the Joker talk. She watched Joker pull out a deck of cards and set them on the table, then noticed his hand move closer to hers. She smirked a bit and moved her hand towards his and turned back to listen to them talk.

Joker saw her hand move closer to his, and decided to just go ahead and yake it in his own. He smiled, then grinned at Aleskei.

Scarecrow was quite interested on how rich this guy actually was when he mentioned his previous past. If this guy was in for making money, maybe Scarecrow could convince Aleksei later on to invest in some other inventions and maybe help finance the Scare Man project, though first Scarecrow needed a few essentials from Stark Industries before that could happen, so he kept to himself and let Aleksei talked.
Aleksei noted Joker's attracting to pale dark haired woman, but decided quickly he didn't want to kill the Joker; he amused them with his style. Reaching into his own pocket, Aleksei retrieved a handheld device custom ordered to due multiple functions, including keeping track of special information such as stocks, to do lists, and the extra stuff; like a Blackberry, but suited for his size.
"I have information of Batman's objectives as of a few hours ago. The first is to stop Supergirl, since she has acquired a Symbiote like creature on her body, making her a potential threat to both sides: Hero and Villain. Batman is probably in the process of trying to remove it or at least find where Supergirl went. The next is a personal one that Batman might go for next. An alien known as the Commissar is searching for people that were part of the Weapon X program and Doomsday in order to revive his old body. Batman will go for the more threatening of the two and try to stop Supergirl from going out of control...Though it escapes me how Batman would deal with that...That is for you to figure out."
Aleksei pressed more buttons on his handheld device and it beeped as he turned it off and put it away. Aleksei smiled deviantly and rubbed his hands together.
"By the way, this meal is on me; I recently purchased this restraint."
Aleksei then proceeded to look at the menu since he planned on order everything he knew he liked and everything he wanted to try on the menu. By this time tomorrow, this restaurant would be converted into a bar, so this would be the restaurant’s last serving as a respectable business.

When the shaking waiter walked in with their order of food Pixie smirked and telepathically tipped the tray onto Aleksei's suit. "Looks like it is on you." She giggled. She didn't like this guy very much. Besides they could take care of the heros themselves. They were a rather powerful group of villians. She narrowed her eyes and smiled at Rhi-Aleksei. "So what's in it for us... Actually more importantly what do you want?"
