The old blue Buick scooted down the highway at a rate of seventy miles per hour, much slower than the other cars travelling at eighty-five. Amber, the girl in the passenger seat, stared wide-eyed at the glowing orange orb that illuminated the sky. The driver, Amanda, was looking blankly ahead.

"Amanda, why do we have to go home?" She asked innocently, twirling a strand of her long black hair in her fingers. She looked down at the Bat insignia placed over her breasts.

"Unfortunately, we don't live in that universe" Amanda spoke wistfully, staring off into space, "we have to go back to our mundane lives here…"

Amber pulled her cape over her shoulders, shivering. "It's cold." She reached for a knob and turned, but accidently turned up the radio. The music was blaring through the car; deafening. "Amber…" Amanda looked to switch off the music, and swerved. Amber grasped on to the dashboard for dear life, while Amanda gripped the wheel and pumped the brakes.

Both girls let out a little shriek as the car came to a stop in front of a sign. They didn't recognize the sign, or this area. Amanda looked up at the sign. "You've GOT to be kidding me."

Amber looked up at the sign as well, "Welcome to Gotham City…" she paused a moment, then like a lock clicking in place, she blurted "THAT'S WHERE BATMAN LIVES!"

Amanda's face fell. If this was the REAL Gotham city, where the Batman lived, they were probably not going to make it out alive. She looked down at her identical Bat insignia, and held a breath. Amber was dancing in her seat, giddy. "Oh my god. I can't BELIEVE that by pushing that button-"

"Amber, this isn't GOOD. We have no idea where the heck we are; out in the middle of nowhere it looks like, where some jerk put up a fake sign to mislead people." Her fingers ran through her hair, agitated.

Amber groaned, "Can we at least SEE if it's the Gotham city from the comics? Maybe by some act of luck we ended up in an alternate universe…or…"

She didn't have time to finish her sentence; Amanda let go of the brake and sped down the street towards, "Gotham City".
