(Lady Shiva has Batman and Katana hostage and has subdued Silver Monkey. She approaches Dr. Ravencroft with the Soultaker Sword.)
Lady ShivaOh, the flower you picked has lovely petals, Silver Monkey. I wonder if the same can be said of her soul.
Please, Lady Shiva, I never meant to betray you. It was Silver Monkey who...
Lady ShivaShh, shh. Quiet now, my lotus blossom. (Lady Shiva recites an incantation and activates the sword)
What're you doing? No, wait! (The sword drains her soul, leaving her a colorless, skin-covered skeleton)
Lady ShivaDon't worry, she's not dead. Not yet, anyway. As for you, Silver Monkey, you won't be joining your flower in the sword. My plans for you are far for interesting, and... painful. (Two ninjas carry Silver Monkey away) I'm actually quite grateful to Silver Monkey. Yes, he betrayed me, but he also delivered two of my most troublesome adversaries.

Lady ShivaDid I? And what is that?

... That rocket. (Batman breaks through his bonds, then frees Katana)
... Glove saws?
Acid capsules... but good idea.
