It was a harmless spell! What the hell went wrong? Zatanna asked as she looked at the eight foot tall monster standing before her.
The creature slammed its fist down toward her and Zatanna barely had enough time to dodge before the place she was at was now sporting a fresh new basketball sized hole. The monster roared and ripped it's terrible hand back. She stood ready and looked at it again. The monster was one of those horror movie monsters that Wally loved to watch. She had no idea that he had left a video of "Flesh Eaters" in the VCR when she decided to call up a movie action hero for a little floor play.
"HUNGRY!" It roared at her. It's rotten teeth and horrible breath a stark reminder of how well the spell worked.
Damn it If Bruce finds out what I did... This thing will be a walk in the park. She said as it swung at her again leaving another hole in the Watchtower's floor.
Almost as if there was some cosmic joke reel going on Bruce and Diana walked through the door into the rec room. The moment they saw the thing they quickly went into action. Diana rushed toward it letting out a warrior's yell and slammed her fist into it's rotten flesh. The creature howled in pain and tried to fight the Princess. As Diana distracted it Bruce launched a series of bat-a-rangs into it. The creature turned to face him and when it did the princess roped it with her lasso. Zatanna watched it scream and then almost as suddenly as it appeared the creature melted into a pile of goo and soon evaporated into nothing.
"What the hell was that?" Bruce demanded as he looked at Zatanna.
"Ummmmm... Nothing..." She said trying to look away.
Diana walked up behind her and looked at the movie sitting on the counter of the entertainment center. A brief smile crossed her lips and she looked at Bruce.
"It was nothing that Zatanna couldn't handle on her own. You promised me a quiet evening alone together. Starting with a movie and then onto something better." Diana said in a husky voice.
Bruce glared at Zatanna for a moment more before he followed Diana out of the wreck room. He glanced once at the movie and put his hand over his eyes. A copy of "The Dark Avenger" lay on the corner of the entertainment center. The main character based on Batman himself.
"Next time make sure you have the right movie in the machine." Bruce said as the doors closed.
