In Gotham City; a ton of people were going about their own business during the night.
One woman was walking down a sidewalk when a thug ran by and took her purse, shocking her.
"HEY THAT'S MY PURSE!" yelled the woman.
"Not my problem." said the man.
He ran into a nearby alleyway and bumped into a shadowy figure.
The man became confused.
"So who're you suppose to be, Batman or Robin?" said the man.
"Neither." the figure said sounding like Patton Oswalt before holding a hand up which was shaped like a Mega Buster, "I'm a new guy."
The crook became more confused before being shot by the figure, knocking him out.
The figure then sprouted wings and flew off.
Later; a ton of cops were in the area.
Jim Gordon then appeared next to Harvey Bullock.
"Okay, what do we got?" said Gordon.
"Some woman had her purse stolen by some guy who claims to have been shot by some guy who turned a hand into some type of cannon like blaster. I don't buy it one bit." said Bullock.
"And yet you still believe in yeti's." said a voice.
The two cops turned to see Meek in his Bounty Hunter armor with Stargirl, Joey, and AP who were in their own heroic persona.
"You're dealing with something that isn't normal." said Joey.
"Tell me about it, I was expecting Batman to show up." said Bullock.
"And I did." said a voice.
Bullock gasped in shock and turned to see Batman and Superman were behind him.
"Christ, don't you so called heroes have anything better to do?" said Bullock.
"When something like this happens, then we show up." said Superman.
Bullock did some thinking.
"Fair enough." said Bullock.
Batman approached the mugger who looked up and gasped in shock.
"This is all I need, Batman showing up." said the crook.
"The person with the cannon like hand, what was he like?" said Batman.
"Like I told the cops, he was in the shadows, I couldn't see him that well." said the mugger.
The young heroes groaned.
"This'll get us nowhere." said Joey.
"You're telling me." said AP.
Stargirl noticed something and tapped Meek on the shoulder and pointed to a street camera on a light pole.
The others noticed it.
"You suppose that thing's still working?" said Stargirl.
"Only one way to find out." said Meek.
The four approached some type of metal box and Meek opened it up, revealing what was currently going on close to the alleyway.
"Oh yeah, it's working." said Stargirl.
Meek pulled a wire out of his gauntlet before putting it into the memory drive.
His gauntlet made a wirring sound before it stopped and he put his wire back.
Joey closed the box and the four walked off.
Superman and Batman were talking to each other.
"So the mugger knows nothing about the guy, and not even the woman." said Batman.
"That leaves us at a dead end." said Superman.
The others appeared next to the two.
"Got what we need." said Meek.
The adults turned to the kids.
"How?" said Superman.
"This cities full of jam cams, am I right?" said Meek.
Batman nodded.
"Anyways, I found a camera that was filming everything that had happened, and managed to get video of the incident." said Meek, "Now we can figure out what we're dealing with."
Later at the Metro Tower; the group was looking at a video of the mugger being shot by the mysterious figure before the being flew off.
"Freeze it." said Joey.
Batman pushed the pause button and the flying figure was on the screen, but still in the shadows.
The caped crusader started pushing some buttons and the image started to clear up, revealing a being that looked like the Brave and the Bold version of the third Blue Beetle, but in a DCAU type of animation style.
The others became confused.
"Who is that guy?" said Stargirl.
"No idea." said the Cape Crusader.
"Whoever he is, he's going down." said Meek.
Superman turned to Meek in shock.
"Wait what, you're going after some guy who helped out a woman?" said Superman.
"He still shot a guy, either way he's going to have to face the consequences." said Meek.
AP chuckled.
"Oddly enough, I'll have to side with Bounty Hunter on this." said AP.
Batman turned to AP and did the Bat Glare.
The puppet gulped.
"What should we do instead?" said AP.
"If we're going to go after him, it won't be to take him down, but to figure out his reasons and to maybe recruit him into our ranks." said Batman.
Everyone is shocked.
"Say what now?" Joey.
"Yep, he's proven his worth." said Batman.
"Yeah by shooting some guy." said Meek.
Batman turned to Meek and did the Bat Glare.
The meerkat became shocked.
"What should I do?" said Meek.
"Figure out where the mysterious being showed up at first." said Batman.
Meek became confused.
"That's it, why not have me binge watch every episode of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia?" said Meek.
"That's actually a very good show." said Stargirl.
"See, even she gets me. Like in this one episode where the gang have seperate plans to tackle a heatwave and-"Meek said before seeing Batman give him the Bat Glare again, "I'll just leave now and figure out where this guy came from, Joey?"
"Sure thing." Joey said before following Meek.
"So what about us?" said Stargirl.
"We'll try to find this character and talk him into joining." said Batman.
Stargirl nodded.
"Alright." said Stargirl.
She and Batman left the room, leaving a confused Superman.
"Well, looks like I've got nothing to do." said Superman.
With the mysterious being; he kept on flying before falling into a dumpster and turning into a human mexican teenage boy wearing a blue shirt underneath a green denim jacket, and blue jeans who was passed out.
He then woke up groaning before climbing out of the dumpster and looking around at his surroundings.
"Oh god, you did it again, didn't you?" the teen said sounding like Sonic the Hedgehog.
A laughing sound was heard.
"Sure did Jaime Reyes, sure did." said a voice.
The teen known as Jaime Reyes became mad and took his jacket and shirt off, revealing what looked like Luna's Purple Parasite scarab, but with blue coloring.
"You do this all the time Khaji Da, armor me up whenever I go to sleep and then do something I'm not aware of." said Jaime.
"Come on, I'm helping people out." said the scarab known as Khaji Da.
"By taking control of me whenever I'm asleep?" said Jaime.
"Let's get one thing straight here Jaime, I'm in charge around here." said Khaji Da.
Jaime sighed.
"I know, it's just been different since I ran away from El Paso just to keep from harming my own father." said Jaime.
"Oh what, you're still worried about that old geezer? It's been two years Jaime, odds are he's forgotten about you." said Khaji.
"Family never forgets each other." said Jaime.
He put his shirt and jacket back on and started walking towards the road, but a figure in a tall tan trench coat and tan hat pulled the teen to the sidewalk before a car could hit him.
"Careful kid, wouldn't want to be run over like that." said the figure.
Jaime chuckled.
"Yeah thanks." said Jaime.
He looked both ways and started walking across the street before reaching the other side.
The figure chuckled and took the hat off, revealing that it was Swiss Army.
The assassin chuckled.
"Now there's something that can hopefully get me tons of money when not killing people." Swiss Army said not noticing that he was being watched by Hater, Peepers, and Scourge on the skeleton's ship, "Seems like the Reach was very foolish to let one of their weapons end up in the hands of a child."
Hater became shocked.
"A weapon with who knows what kind of powers? TO THE SECRET LAB!" yelled Hater.
Peepers, Scourge, and Hater appeared at the secret lab entry way.
"Pull the lever Peepers." said Hater.
Peepers pulled the left lever and music started playing.
"I love you, you love me-"the song played, making Hater scream.
"OH GOD NO, NOT THAT SONG!" yelled Hater.
"SORRY!" shouted Peepers and pulled the second lever.
But nothing happened.
"Well this sucks, the one day the Watchdogs give the roller coaster maintenance." said Hater.
"Stairs?" said Scourge.
"Stairs." the others said.
Later; they appeared at the lab in their lab coats and Peepers was panting from exhaustion.
"Oh quit your bitchin, it's not that bad a journey." said Scourge.
"Says the Sonic the Hedgehog clone." said Peepers.
"Agreed." said Hater who was also panting from exhaustion. "Next time we take the elevator or escolator."
The group walked over to the lab.
"Okay, something about that weapon made by the Reach." said Hater.
"It is very powerful, odds are it's stuck to that kid." said Scourge.
Everyone groaned at that.
"So how can we get something that's on someone's spine off?" said Peepers.
"Even I don't know and I'm not that comfortable doing that to a kid. Even I have my limites with that." said Hater.
The group did some thinking.
Little did they know that they were being watched by Lex Luthor who was in a secret hideout.
