"Bats probably scares all the criminals that they'd rather stay in prison than face him"
"Where's the bomb Joker?"
"BOOOOOOMMMMMMM"
"BATMAN!"
"Diana, meet Robin and Batgirl"
J'onn J'onzz was curious. Very curious indeed. How could a man possibly survive a point blank impact from a rocket launcher - an M72 LAW no less. Even factoring in the enhanced physiology of the man and the protective armour of the Kevlar suit, it was impossible to still be breathing when the weapon is known to destroy heavily armored tanks.
Bruce was now down from critical to serious after more attendance from the Martian Manhunter. As J'onn's eyes roved the beeping machines, he absent-mindedly wondered whether Batman had relflexes fast enough to produce a shield immediately before the explosion.
'J'onn!'
He spun quickly around to see Shayera and Vixen struggling under Green Lantern's weight. Black Canary heaved Green Arrow through the door with Fire striding in close behind, Flash in her arms. The disoriented group was concluded with Shining Knight supporting Vigilante on his shoulders.
'They've been poisoned,' said Vixen. She and Shayera lowered John down.
'Can you get a cure?' asked Shayera.
'I'll need to see what the poison is,' he replied solemnly as the medics filed in and performed their usual medical procedures.
She could only stare and stare. Every inherent courtesy she possessed as a princess inexplicably vanished as she gazed, open mouthed, at the two apprentices introducing themselves before her.
'So you ran into Scarecrow?' Robin asked in confirmation once he'd explained how he and Batgirl had found Superman demolishing the University.
Recomposing herself long enough to seem less rude, Diana then gave a nod.
Before Robin could ask anything further, Superman intervened and said, 'Where's Shayera?'
'I left her with that green woman,' she replied.
'All right, lets find her and then we'll get the league down here to-'
'Woah, not cool,' Robin interrupted fervently, 'Batman isn't going to like you guys parading around his city taking over his job.'
'Well, we're not leaving,' Diana said immediately.
While the two were debating, Batgirl withdrew her transmitter that was beeping incessantly. She listened to it closely, not liking what she was hearing. In fact, she hadn't liked what she heard since Bruce had been demobalised.
'Maybe it's better if we do let the league in,' said Batgirl, holding up her transmitter and causing Robin to stare. 'Bane's been sighted at a chemical warehouse, Riddler's broken into Wayne Enterprise, and Catwoman is already stealing jewels as we speak. And that's just for starters.'
Batgirl and Robin glanced at one another. Then Robin turned to Diana, grinning his boyish grin.
'Too many crooks for two little heroes,' said Robin. 'Looks like we are going to need your help.'
'I'll go and find Shayera while you head up to take over Mr Teriffic,' said Superman, already hovering above ground.'
'Wait,' said Diana. Her hand had flown to her comm-link.
She saw his curious stare. She paused for a moment and then smiled grimly at him. 'Good news, she's already back in the watchtower. Bad news, Flash, Lantern and Vigilante are down.'
'Well,' interjected Robin, causing them both to look at him 'I'm going to head off Riddle first. Your highness, keep contact with Batgirl. You coming Superman?'
Robin didn't wait for a reply but fired his grapple and sailed through the air with Superman swerving after him.
'Get anyone from the league down as fast as you,' called Superman's trailing voice.
