Beck finally got to his apartment, only stopping once to take a picture for a group of tourists. While he had been involved with hacking government and hero facilities, the college student wasn't evil-natured. He was merely a slave to his own money. He stepped over a few piles of papers and laundry before collapsing in his sofa, staring at the ceiling with dull, hazel eyes. Beck was normally seen as handsome, but the purpling bags under his eyes made him seem like a sorry soul. He yawned.

Finally, his phone rang. Darth Vader's Theme played as he looked at the caller ID. The Joker. Beck should have known the maniac was behind the robbery. He answered. "Hello?"

(THAT RINGTONE IS PERFECT I CAN'T-)

"I'm sure you've heard," The Joker answered almost immediately. "Take one guess at what I need you to do."

(Glad you like it!)

Beck laughed a boyish laugh, grinning lopsidedly. Of course the Joker wanted to play games. "Hmmm. Get you out of the nutter-house? Because I can assure you, man, you're never getting out of that one." He ran a hand through his blonde hair lazily, an energetic smile contradicting his sloppy appearance. Beck's eyes shifted to the clock, realizing that he should be productive and put the groceries away before they began to rot. He rose to his feet, somehow keeping the phone on his face while dancing over a labyrinth of boxes.

"Oh yeah? How about I give you leadership of the goons for a month?" He replied, smirking, while playing with the phone wire in his fingers. "And maybe a bit of cash?"

"Cash?" His eyes lit up. If there was anything that could take the man, it was money. "Keep your goons. All I want is a bit of dough." Beck plopped down at his computer, placing a peculiar-looking helmet on his head. It served as an emergency protocol to awaken him from his coma after he exited his own body. Having his body never wake up and leaving him stuck as a bolt of electricity was one of his worst nightmares.

"Anything else before I get in there? Information? Data? ... Lasers?" He tried to egg his client on, for once Beck was in the system, he could access anything with adequate wiring and a power switch. The more perks, the more pay.

"Cameras everywhere, guards, and of course... Electrified bars. No lasers. Think you can pull it off?" He was almost kidding himself with the last question. Joker knew he'd done things crazier than this for petty thieves.

(I assume he meant to get rid of the cameras and the guards, right?)

"Of course." Though the two men had never met face-to-face, he could hear the smile in the Joker's voice. Beck had never shown his face to any one of his clients, and always concealed his identity. The only pictures any client had seen of him were his filtered profile pictures on social media. A college kid could have some fun, right? "Where it exists, so can I." He clicked on the helmet and a few programs to ensure that nothing could track him. And so that he could wake up, of course.

"Here I go!" Beck dropped the phone, his physical body collapsing lamely on his desk. A tremendous surge of electricity erupted from his body, turning into a thin sliver of lightning as his supercharged soul entered the computer. Racing faster than the speed of light, Beck dodged firewalls and angry series of zeroes and ones. The signal from Joker's phone was like music to him, his wiry new form pulsing to the beat. Finally, he was there at the facility. "I'm here. Brace yourself," a computer-generated voice crackled at the Joker.

(Yeah, that's right. ^_^)

"Ready," The Joker crossed his legs, smiling and waiting.

(*deep breath*

So the Joker's goons robbed a bank and then HE got involved in a fight with Altessia. Eventually he loses, then these weird goons that didn't really belong to the Joker came out of nowhere. They wanted him for some reason, but they too lose the fight due to the fact that Altessia turned into a dragon. The Joker was tossed into Arkham, but now he's conspiring with Beck to break out. A building also exploded, but that's taken care of.)

(Welcome!)

Beck knew that he would have to limit himself on this one. He was very tired, and didn't want to risk knocking himself out and waking up in a foreign power system. It wasn't worth it. Weighing his options and thinking about money, the young man began to concentrate. Cameras. Check. That was easy enough. The satisfying click of dying power channels would've made him laugh if he had a mouth. Next... the guards or the electrified bars? If he did the bars first, then he could potentially smite any guards who were currently touching the bars of any cell. That would save him from having to spend the rest of his energy frying them up with their own tasers and radios.

Beck made the bars vibrate with electricity. Power began to radiate in the air as a few surprised yells echoed through the night. Any other guards inside the building were now either paralyzed or unconscious. A good, silent job. He would've patted himself on the back if he had hands. His power levels decreased slightly, but resurged with a burst of willpower. "Say the password and I will open your door," he joked playfully to his client in the voice he liked to call "male Siri".

The Joker laughed loudly and got up. "You'll get your money. First, let me get out," He walked to the door.

Midnight stood up. He grinned, So the joker is in Jail? I need to see this he said as he jumped onto his floating carpet and zoomed off. He knew he was a last resort but shook it off.

"All right, all right! Have it your way. By the way, the password was 'open sesame.' Easiest password out there." The robotic male voice said choppily, holding none of the intended sarcasm. The door swung open as if by magic, the electrified bars buzzing in response. Beck, or Glitch as he was called in his superpowered state, made sure to linger in the system in case Joker needed him. Glitch double-checked to make sure that all guards in the vicinity were down and that the cameras could not be repaired. "Anything else?" the Google Translate-like monotone spoke again.

"Not that I can think of," The Joker grinned as he sprinted out the door and leapt over the bars on his floor, climbing down by dropping from floor to floor. Once at the bottom, he was confronted by guards blocking the door. They held tasers. He laughed and ducked as one of them fired at him. "Think you can do anything about the tasers?" He called up, leaping out of the way of another shot.

"I'll do my best." One by one, the guards began to collapse - thankfully, Glitch had been able to electrocute them before they could land a shot on his client. He could see his bank accounts growing by the cent. At this point, Glitch was starting to become fatigued and debated on whether to leave or not. Next time, he needed a warning so that he can be properly rested. Even though he had separated from the needs of his physical body, the soul also tired at a slightly slower rate. Though it tired all the same.

"Done."

An explosion fired at the door and guards in front of the side of the door he was at flew out of the way. In the smoke midnight stood there staring at the Joker. He grinned as a guard fired a taser at him. It completely missed and went back and hit the guard. He laughed

"Perfect," The Joker smiled from ear to ear as he rushed outside, out in front of Arkham. The sun touched his face and he laughed, stopping.

As soon as he stopped, he took a deep breath. "Midnight! Nice to see you," He grinned. "Alright, kid, that was some good work. $500,000?" He called back to Glitch.

"Sounds good to me, old man. Just leave it in the virtual mailbox I sent you. I'll pick it up laterzzzz..." He mused before his connection began to break. It was time to go home. "See ya," was all Glitch said to the duo before tearing himself out of Arkham and blasting the crazy race home. It felt like the longest journey of his life, but eventually, he found the welcoming doors of his computer.

Without hesitation, Glitch rocketed back into his physical body, feeling the need to breathe again. Oh, how nice it is to have lungs! He opened his hazel eyes and stated gratefully at his pale hands. He looked again at the clock. Time for bed. The hacker made a move to walk to his bedroom, but was only able to stagger a yard before vomiting on the floor.

"Ugh." This was no new experience, though he had hoped that he would never have to experience it again. His abrupt return has caused an imbalance of electrons in his body, installing unknown data and inducing shock. Beck fell to his knees, withstanding the paralyzing pain that made his limbs twitch. He groaned.

"Who's the new guy?" Midnight asked in his cold voice. His red eyes stared at the Joker
