Chapter 4
Selina, Bruce, and Jason drove back to Wayne Manor. Alfred opened the door then led them to the sun room where Cass, Kit, Damein, and Mia were having a nerf war. "Alright that's en…" Bruce was unable to finish his sentence because he was hit in the face by four nerf darts. Selina and Jason burst into laughter while Alfred left chuckling silently. Once the laughter had died down Bruce instructed everyone but Mia to go to the Bat cave. Mia was to help Alfred with preparing dinner.
When everyone was in the Bat cave Jason explained the situation, "About a half hour ago Hope Lewis stumbled into the east end community center looking like this", he uploaded Joy's picture onto the Bat computers screen. Jason continued on with the debrief, "we have no idea why she's like this or how she got this disease… actually all we know is the disease maybe a mutated form of chicken pox".
After Jason finished with the debrief he turned to Bruce for further instruction. Bruce got up from his seat and began to give directions to everyone, "Cass, and Kit you do info gathering figure out if this a single case situation or if there are multiple victims get Tim to help you". Bruce turned to Damin and Jason, "that leaves you two for patrol, but if you hear anything call it into Oracle". When all the orders were given and the troops dispersed Selina turned and talked to Bruce, "you should have Jason run point on this mission". Bruce gave her a confused look, "Jason has an emotional attachment and knows more about the community were dealing with". Selina walked over to him and touched his cheek, "one day you will be unable to protect Gotham and you know the one to replace you….just think about giving him a little more time as a leader". She then left to put on her cat suit, leaving Bruce to ponder her suggestion.
