Bruce and Dick leapt from their seats as they saw the flames erupt from the table opposite the President and Queen. Alfred dashed over to the Queen and began to guide her and the Prince through the chaos to safety. Bruce and Dick slipped into the shadows, moments later emerging clad in their costumes.
People were running around screaming their heads off as they tied to evacuate the room. Dick looked over to the door and something interesting caught his eye. Looking past the panicking crowds and the frantic security personnel, he could see a loan figure walking calmly, but with a purpose towards where Alfred and the Queen were. The gentleman flashed a black wallet at the Queen and she nodded with a look of relief on her face. They then headed off out of the room. Where were they going?
"Robin!" Batman shouted. "I need you over here."
He turned towards Batman and ran over to help. Glancing back, the figure, Alfred and the Queen had disappeared.
Outside Peter ran back towards the front of the White House as people began to stream out of the building. He couldn't help as Spider-man, but he could help as Peter Parker. He began helping people out and guiding them over the lawn and to their cars. In the distance he could hear the sound of approaching police cars and fire crews.
"Parker, get me out of here!" Jameson shouted.
Peter turned to see Jonah running towards him as he stuffed a camera in his pocket and barged past escaping guests. He ran to the car and yanked the door open as he simultaneously tried to fold himself into the passenger seat. Peter ran round to the driver's seat and belted in, whilst also starting the ignition. He slammed his foot down on the accelerator and the car shot forward. Using his spider sense, he guided the car through the crowds, avoiding any passers-by.
"Where do you want to go?" Peter asked.
"Just get me back to the hotel, I need to get the story through to Robbie, this is going to be our best seller. Just imagine the headline, 'White House attacked by Batman and Kid Hero'."
Back in the White House, the debris had cleared and everyone was out except for Batman and Robin. They stood in the State Banquet room facing the wall behind where the President was sitting. In bright yellow lettering was written 'The British are back, this time we will win.' Next to the text sat a large union flag with 'Victory' painted over it in the same yellow lettering.
"Who could have done this?" Robin asked.
"I don't know, but apparently the British are coming, however from what I saw, the British ran away."
"Yeah there was that strange man, who took the Queen somewhere, was it him, was he our terrorist?"
"I don't think so, there seemed something familiar about him, like I knew him, I just can't remember."
