Lionel glanced at the others, who were now inside Cherry's room. "We ready?" he asked.
"Ready!" The others replied.
"Okay, let's have some fun." Cherry told Lionel.
He started the program, and the movie began.
It was a dark night in cities all around the world, especially with where many superheros lived. A woman was grumbling over the phone as she drove in her car.
A woman was on her cell phone, only to grunt slightly as a car came up right behind hers. "Well, that's just great," The woman soon complained. "No, not the presentation. That was terrible. Some idiot just hit me. Do you realize how much this is gonna cost?" She then glared as she came out of her car to the other car behind her. "Not in money, which I have plenty of, but in-"
The other person in the car appeared to be a monster who snarled at her which then scared her. She screamed and got back into her car. But surprisingly, they just looked like normal people. Everywhere she looked, it was like demons were all around her, snarling at her.
The poor woman screamed from them. "Get away! Get away!"
The people looked confused from the woman's reactions, and soon, the heroine known as Wonder Woman was soon coming over. She reached into the car and pulled the woman out.
"Thank you...please save me!" The woman begged.
"From whom?" Wonder Woman asked.
"There are demons here..." The woman told her. "They're everywhere, don't you see them?!"
Wonder Woman looked all around and soon looked back at the woman. "I only see one."
The woman looked at her in shock and terror.
In Metropolis, a man had a gun pointed to his family.
"I'll ask you one last time," The man glared. "What did you do to my family?!"
"Steven, it's me, Gloria!" A woman's voice cried out, but he could only see demons. "I'm your wife. These are our children."
"LIAR! YOU KILLED THEM!" he replied, but before he could fire, Superman blocked the bullet and bent the gun before tossing it away.
"Phew..." Saiya Man said as he soon joined his adoptive father.
"No one is dying here tonight." Superman told the man.
"It's not me you should be stopping," The man said to the superheros. "It's them! Look at them!"
"All I see are a bunch of normal people." Saiyaman replied as two police officers burst into the house.
"Look at them!" The man cried out to them. "They're just like the neighbors. Go to my shed, you'll see that I'm right."
"Your shed?" Superman replied.
"I put them in there... Please, believe me." The man begged as he was being handcuffed.
Saiyaman smashed the shed door down...only to see dozens of corpses, strung up on the walls and wrapped in aluminum siding. He put a hand over his mouth and his face turned sickly green. Superman came to comfort Saiyaman, looking quite disgusted with the man who was being arrested.
Meanwhile in Gotham City, a woman was standing on a rooftop, holding an infant out over the ledge.
"Pardon me, ma'am, but I don't believe that child has had their skydiving lessons yet." Bat-Mite remarked as he appeared, dressed in a security guard outfit, holding a clipboard and pen.
"It's not my fault," The woman frowned, she looked quite exhausted as she held her baby, but all she saw was an unholy demon in a baby blanket. "I've given birth to the devil. It's the devil!"
"I may not be a kid person, but I have to disagree..." Lady Gothika said. "Just calm down... Okay?"
Bat-Mite picked up the baby and sniffed it. "Phoo! She might not be possessed, but there's SOMETHING demonic about that diaper smell!" he remarked.
"Don't you see it's a devil?!" The woman cried out.
"Look, lady..." Lady Gothika said. "You're really tired... Just let us get you home... You should probably get some sleep."
"Yeah!" Bat-Mite added. "I get that bein' a mom has to be real stressful, but that ain't a reason to go thinkin' your kid's some kinda demon!"
The woman soon began to back up.
"NO!" Batman cried out to the woman.
The woman soon leapt off the edge of the building to end her own life.
"I got the kid, someone get the LAY-DEE!" Bat-Mite replied as he used his arms to stretch out and grab the baby.
Batman soon went to swoop down to save the traumatized woman.
"I can't look." Lady Gothika muttered, covering her eyes.
Bat-Mite quickly caught the child and teleported back to the group. "It's alive!" he remarked, before checking the sheets. "And it's also a girl!"
"Oh, good..." Lady Gothika whispered in relief for the baby. "And the mother?"
Bat-Mite got a nervous expression on his face. "...things got broken..."
"WHAT?!" Lady Gothika asked, zipping over to the ledge.
Batman soon looked up at her and shook his head as it didn't look good.
Bat-Mite glanced down to the baby. "I'm so sorry." he replied.
"W-W-What're we gonna do with the baby?!" Lady Gothika asked. "We can't just leave her!"
"We WON'T!" Bat-Mite replied. "We're HEROES, remember?"
"We'll think of something, Gothy... Don't worry about it too much," Batman told his goddaughter. "I think we need to talk to some of the others about this strange case."
"So, does that mean...?" Lady Gothika asked.
"Yes," Batman told her. "We must meet at the Hall of Justice."
"Then there's no time to waste!" Bat-Mite replied as he snapped his fingers and they vanished.
They soon came into the Hall of Justice along with the other heroes of the world.
"Well, now we have a baby who needs a home...not to mention a new mom," Bat-Mite explained. "And a new diaper. Eugh."
"Aren't you going to change it?" Saiyaman asked Lady Gothika.
"Why me?" Lady Gothika narrowed her eyes.
"You're a girl." Saiyaman teased.
Bat-Mite took off his glove and slapped him across the face. "How DARE you." he remarked angrily.
"It was a joke! I'm joking!" Saiyaman grinned sheepishly.
"Yeah, well it WASN'T funny," Bat-Mite retorted. "And for the record, I will change her, wise-ass."
"Sorry..." Saiyaman rolled his eyes. "LG makes jokes like that all the time, no one stops her..."
"Well, I wasn't there to see it, but I only saw yours," Bat-Mite replied. "But YOU have powers. As far as everyone else knows, she doesn't."
Lady Gothika's eyes widened before she looked sheepish about not having powers.
Everyone soon met up together to see footage going on all around the world about the people freaking out about monsters.
"These crimes were committed by law-abiding citizens." Superman told the other heroes.
"Weird, isn't it?" Bat-Mite asked. "Maybe something happened to them!"
"What else do we know?" Lady Gothika asked.
"They all claim to have seen nightmare visions beforehand." Wonder Woman said to her.
"Hmm... What about the cause?" Lady Gothika then asked.
"No idea." Superman shrugged.
Bat-Mite pondered as he proceeded to powder and change the baby's diaper. "Hmm...no doubt there's some sort of mental magic at play," he remarked. "Someone's cast some crazy hex on people to make 'em think they see demons!"
"Hex... Magic!" Saiyaman said. "This had to be some sort of magic act!"
"I thought you said magic didn't exist." Lady Gothika smirked.
"That was until I met your boyfriend." Saiyaman told her.
Bat-Mite blushed at that.
"The one week I fill in for Jordan, and it couldn't be some hairy-ass monster?" The temporary Green Lantern sighed to himself.
"Well, we all get the short end of the stick." Bat-Mite shrugged.
"The same pattern is repeating around the world, so there could be an overriding factor," Wonder Woman guessed as she took out a remote to show a world atlas on the screen. "Perhaps a paranormal element like Bat-Mite said."
"I'm not fully sure, but it might be possible." Saiyaman agreed.
"Lucky we have a friend who deals in such matters..." Bat-Mite remarked.
"Magic, huh?" Batman commented.
"We've come against magic before, Batman," Wonder Woman told him. "Xerxes, Trigon, Felix Faust..."
"Even Shazam's power is based on magic." Superman added.
"Cuz he got it from a wizard!" Bat-Mite nodded.
"With as much as you've seen, can you rule it out?" Superman asked The Dark Knight.
"The criminally insane don't need magic as an excuse," Batman said before standing up and going to leave the room. "I recommend spending more time on the streets instead of flying over them."
"Well, what about this?" Lady Gothika replied, grabbing Bat-Mite and held him out like a toy. "Look at this little guy. He's from another dimension, and has a lot of strange powers!"
"It's true. I also slice, dice, and make a mean set of crinkle-cut fries!" Bat-Mite grinned with a blush.
Batman glanced back and soon just walked away.
"Huh... He's even friendlier than they say." Green Lantern commented.
"He'll be fine." Lady Gothika said before letting go of Bat-Mite.
Bat-Mite dropped out of her grip, and floated in the air. "Well, here's hoping." he replied.
"Aren't you gonna go after him?" Saiyaman asked them.
"Maybe in a minute." Lady Gothika replied.
The clock ticked for a few seconds as Bat-Mite checked his watch.
"I think you should go with Batman before he worries." Saiyaman said to Lady Gothika and Bat-Mite.
"Alright, alright..." Lady Gothika told him. "Don't get your tights in a twist."
"If you say so." Bat-Mite shrugged.
Eventually, they soon left, taking the baby with them.
"We're not keeping it." Lady Gothika said about the baby.
"Obviously not!" Bat-Mite replied. "The kid can't grow up in a place where the closest things it has to parental figures are constantly having to go off and fight bad guys or something! The little lady needs a proper home! But where...?"
"An orphanage?" Lady Gothika shrugged.
"Seeing as I have no other ideas, that feels like a reasonable course of action." Bat-Mite replied.
"I'm sorry, kid... Hopefully you'll find a better home." Lady Gothika told the baby girl.
The infant babbled to her, before she let out a yawn and dozed off. Lady Gothika looked to down to the baby girl before looking away as they came to an orphanage to drop her off to have someone else take care of her.
"Well, at least the kid will have a better home," Bat-Mite said. "What now?"
"We better get to the manor..." Lady Gothika said, pulling her hood down which was also her mask. "I feel a little tired."
"Good plan," Bat-Mite nodded. "Time to hit the hay."
They soon went to the manor together, but the door was locked. Cherry soon rang the doorbell.
"I'm sorry, but no trick-or-treaters allowed." Alfred told them before chuckling to himself as he tried to make a joke.
"Har-har," Lionel replied. "Let us in, Alfred."
"All right, come inside." Alfred told them, allowing them to come over.
Cherry yawned as she came inside with Lionel.
"Time for bed." Lionel cracked his neck.
"Your beds are all made up," Alfred told them. "Master Bruce is getting ready for sleep himself."
"Mondo cool, Alfey." Lionel yawned with a smile.
Alfred nodded to them and let them go get some sleep.
"Hmm... Magic..." Cherry mumbled to herself as she went to go to bed.
Lionel got into his pajamas and shuffled into bed. The two soon went to sleep, but something strange happened, and a name was spread all around throughout Wayne Manor with the name of 'CONSTANTINE' which seemed to be written in blood.
