Chapter 10 by Zeebop

What Now For Lois and Zatanna?

Team-Up

"So," Lois said to the buxom witch. "What's a girl like you doing in a place like this?"

"I detected a demonic infestation and found you," Zatanna gave Lois a wink.

"I came here looking for four missing women, and found a dick of a demon." She pressed her foot down on the squirming disembodied penis. "This one was Neron. Once the lord of Hell, then demoted to a rhymer. If someone has him playing bouncer, then there's some major demonic power behind this."

"You're much easier on the eyes, I can tell you that." Lois offered. She found herself smiling. It had been a long time since she had enjoyed a bit of repartee, a bit of flirting. Granted, she had never done this kind of thing with a woman before, but...well, first time for everything. "I'm not leaving here until I get some answers, demons or no."

Zatanna batted her lashes. "I don't normally ask this on a first date—but care for a team-up? Best the baddies, rescue the women, drinks after?"

"My place or yours?" Lois said, almost before she realized it.

The witch grinned. "Don't let your mouth make promises it can't cash."

Lois raised an eyebrow in mock challenge. "My credit is good. My oral skills are better."

That set both women to chuckling. It felt good to laugh with someone else.

"First things first," Zatanna bent down and picked up the squirming dick. She dropped it into her top hat, and it vanished. The witch set it on her head and crooked out her arm.

"Shall we?"

Lois smiled and slid her own arm inside it.

Arm in arm, they walked toward the Black Door.

"emases nepO" Zatanna intoned, and the door swung wide.
