The Investigation


Jerry had just made it back to the European WOOHP Facility. It was late. He had spent his day boating. He approached his desk and grabbed some of his paperwork before sitting down in his gray swivel chair.

As he began reading his papers, his office suddenly felt a bit chilly.

He walked up to his opened window and stared at it in confusion.

"Hmm, I could have sworn a closed that earlier," He whispered before closing the window.

When he turned around to walk back to his desk, a figure wearing a black cape and cowl was standing in front of him. Jerry immediately recognized this figure as the Batman.

"Oh my!" Jerry gasped in surprise. He saw Batman holding the villainous Tim Scam by his trench coat in his right hand beaten very badly.

"We need to talk." Batman told Jerry flatly.

Robin had made his way to the Paris bay. Bruce had assigned him to investigate a killing down by the Paris bay a thirty minutes earlier.

-X- (Earlier)

"Tim, I need you to set up an investigation by the Paris bay," Bruce had informed. "There has been a report of a killing. I would go with you, but I need to gather more information on our anonymous friend."

"Alright Bruce," Tim had replied, "I needed something to do."

Soon after Bruce had left Tim went to into his dark brown closet that hid his suit. He grabbed his red and green Robin outfit from a hanger in-between two of his civilian outfits.

First, he put on his red-breasted Kevlar-plated tunic with his R-insignia. Then, he slipped on his light-green sleeve pouches, gloves, and pants. Next, he put on his black, split-toe tabi boots and his golden-yellow Utility Belt. Finally, he put on his green domino mask with his starlite lenses.

After suiting up, he went over to his window and opened it. Then, he threw out his lightweight jumpline and swung out into the night.

Although unknown to the Boy Wonder, he was about to bump into three old friends who were also investigating the bay killing.

Sam, Clover, and Alex were doing office work Jerry.

"This is so boring!" Alex complained.

"Of all the missions Jerry could have given us, he assigns us to file documents and print out papers!" Sam said in an irritated voice.

Just then, one of their Compowders started to ring. When the spies went to answer it, Jerry appeared on the screen as a hologram.

"Hello girls," He said. "I have a new mission for you. I need you to investigate a reported killing down by the bay." He then guided them to the gadget room.

After the spies transformed into their catsuits, Jerry directed them to where there gadgets would be.

"Today, you will only be getting: The Crime-Scene Scanner Watch. It should be on my desk." There it was setting on his desk.

After the spies had found their gadget, Jerry sent them out into the Paris night in a WOOHP Jet.

"I found the body Bruce," Robin informed through his comlink. "The lady's name is Sharon Allan Croft. She been badly burnt. She seems to have..." He paused for a second. He heard someone coming, "I'll call you back." Then he hide nearby by some rocks.

"It seems like there isn't anything here," Alex said while looking around.

"I wouldn't be so sure, Alex," Sam countered while picking up a piece of burnt substance. She then scanned it with the Crime-Scene Scanner Watch.

"What is that, Sammy?" Clover asked. "Whatever it is, it looks totally gross!"

"It seems to be... Burnt human skin!" Sam yelled in disgust as she dropped the piece of burnt skin to the ground.

As Clover, Alex, and Sam screamed at the sight of the burnt skin Robin emerged from his hiding spot.

"Sam, Clover, and Alex," He began, "I wouldn't have expected to run into you three cute young ladies," He ended with a chuckle.

He startled the spies. They immediately tried to attack him as a result. Robin took them down easily. Swiftly dodging every hit or kick they threw at him, before sweep-kicking them to the ground.

"Amateurs," Robin mocked as brushed off his outfit. "I would have thought you three would have improved on your martial arts techniques since we last met."

"Amateurs...?" The spies whispered among themselves, "WE ARE NOT AMATEURS!" They finally shrieked in an irritated tone of voice.

"Who are you, and how do you know us anyway?" Sam asked suspiciously.

"Should recognize me," He informed as he started to walk in the moonlight. "Am I recognizable now?" The Boy Wonder asked as he revealed himself.

"YOU?!" All three screamed together.

"Yes, me," He replied. "Anyway, you three wouldn't want to come over here," He started to say with a bit of seriousness in his voice whilst walking away. "If you screamed like little babies at the sight of that burnt skin, I can only imagine what you three would do if you saw this." Then, he walked away.

Sam then turned to the other two spies and told them, "Even if there's something even grosser and nastier than that burnt skin, we need to go over there!" She was kind of nervous, but she still had a lot of courage in her voice.

Alex and Clover were still kind of reluctant to go further down the bay, but they finally agreed.

"So, you decided to come," Robin said while looking over his shoulder. "Those three better not get in the way of my investigation." He thought to himself.

Soon enough after traveling a little further down the bay, they came to the deceased body. The spies screamed at the top of their longs at the sight of the body.

Robin simply ignored them. He pressed on the communicator on his gauntlet and contacted Batman, "Batman, as I was saying before, this woman seems to have traces of Crane's fear toxin in her system. I'm not exactly certain yet though." Before Batman could even reply, one of the girls' Compowder began to ring.

After they opened it, Jerry appeared on the screen as usual.

"Girls," He said, "I need you three to recover that body and bring it back to the WOOHP Facility. We have a... Special friend that can aid us in analyzing the body." Then, Jerry signaled closed.

Robin had heard the whole conversation. I'll bet I know just who that 'special friend' is. Robin thought to himself.

"Well, it's been nice seeing you again," Alex said while picking up some of the deceased woman's body.

"But I'm afraid while have to get going," Sam had concluded Alex sentence. Then her and Clover picked up and helped carry the body.

As Robin watched them leave, he smiled. He looked at the tracking device he had cleverly placed upon Clover's back. After the girls became out of sight, he pulled out his grapnel gun from his Utility Belt and grappled away into the night.

Scarecrow was preparing a blimp full of his fear compound. He had finally created his ultimate version of his fear gas. Crane walked to his window, and chuckled. His experiment was about to begin.
