I gave this one serious thought, and I'm not sure it turned out the way I planned. I just got done watching The Defenders on Netflix, and OHHHHHHHHHHHHH MMMMMMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDD!

Wayne Manor, 1:22 AM

Bruce walked up the steps and through the grandfather clock, into the grand hall- which was covered in oil.

"Alfred?" Bruce called.

"Yes I know sir, the droid that was on the ship wanted to leave us a little something." Alfred said from the other side of the hall.

"Don't worry about it." He told his butler, he had other things to attend to.

He entered the library, where he heard voices, and peered around a corner to see Sabine sitting on a bench, and Kanan trying to reason with her.

"Listen, I know it looks bad, but I promise you-" Kanan started but Sabine wasn't standing for it.

"Ezra had the potential to save my father, and he didn't. Do you have ANY idea how horrible that feels?" Sabine asked, the blind Jedi.

Kanan looked down, "Listen, you're right, I don't. But I'm asking you to open up to the fact that maybe he didn't for a reason, maybe there was something you never knew about."

Sabine looked like she thought about it for a moment, but she got up and ran out of the room.

"Sabine!" Kanan called, and sigh after she was gone.

Bruce stepped out from around the corner, "There was another reason."

Kanan looked at Bruce and pointed his finger at him, "Ezra, I trust. You? Not at all."

Bruce sigh, "Why not?"

"Um, you hurt me, Hera, Sabine, and Zeb, and I don't know what you want to do to Ezra, but I'm on to you." Kanan practically yelled.

"Look, I was defending myself and my son, what would you have done if you got shot at with your kid across from you?" Bruce shot back.

"I-"

"And I helped Ezra get back on his feet, I took him in and taught him how to fight, to defend himself, he was part of our family, mine, Alfred's, my son's. Not just your's." Bruce growled.

"You cast him out, abandoned him. He was a street rat back on Lothal when I found him, helpless, stealing fruit, only to survive!" Kanan yelled.

"I never, ever, would have left him on Lothal. An invasion on this planet lift rifts in space, and one rift sent Ezra back to Lothal, and I searched for years until I found out he had left the universe, and I spent more time trying to get back to him, but it was only recently I got it working."

"That doesn't explain why he lied to us, like you lie to this city." Kanan spat.

Bruce said nothing, not because he thought Kanan was right but because he was angry, he didn't know what kind of city Gotham was, what the people here were like.

"He lied to you because there is a man here, a phsycopath, that rules over this place with fear. He will do anything to make my life miserable, all because he thinks it would be funny." Bruce said.

"He can't be any different than Vader, or Maul." Kanan said.

"HE IS A THOUSAND TIMES WORSE!" Bruce yelled, "This man has done horrifying things to people, and most of the time it's all to prove a point, that deep down, we're all just as ugly and evil as he is."

"The dark side is the same. Ezra should have told us."

Bruce just looked at him, he remembered what had happened the last time someone he knew fell into the hands of that monster. He wasn't ready to relive that again, "He did it for a good reason, how many times do I have to tell you that."

"He was irresponsible and a liar for not telling us that he was the bat of Mandalore, there is no good reason."

"You don't know what I've seen. What he's seen." Bruce explained.

"Yeah well, at least you haven't seen Order 66." Kanan said, fiddling with his lightsaber.

"I have, actually." Bruce said, "And that was nothing compared to what this man would do with that kind of power."

Kanan said nothing.

"Ezra is a part of our family too. Not just your's, now you'll just have to accept that, or leave." Bruce said, but that only pissed Kanan off, as the Jedi activated his saber and swung at Bruce.

The Batman jumped out of the way as the saber came in contact with the ground, but was thrown into a book case. He sprang up and threw two batarangs at the Jedi, who deflected them easily. He wasn't as prepared without his suit or the advantage of the darkness. Kanan charged as Bruce dodged the attack and hit him in the head. The Jedi yelled, just as Ezra, Dick, and Damian appeared in one hallway, and Hera, Zeb, Sabine, and Chopper.

Kanan threw Bruce to the wall, stunning him, ready to make a kill shot. Bruce started plotting how to counter it, but he got help from someone he didn't expect.

A red blur blew past Ezra and Damian, who were about to help, and suddenly Kanan was pushed up against a wall next to the Ghost Crew.

Bruce knew exactly who came to his aid.

"Looks like bats finally got himself in trouble!" Superman teased from the air.

Sabine took a shot at Superman's head, which did nothing, and Superman looked at her, eyes glowing red, "You do that again and your hand will be gone."

Sabine looked at Ezra, who was mouthing for her to obey.

"I could have handled it." Bruce growled.

Clark dropped Kanan and shrugged, "I know, but it's funny to see you pout."

Bruce looked at Dick and Damian, who were nodding and snickering.

"Anyway, we need to talk. All of us. Like adults." Bruce said.

"Yeah, and no guns." Clark said.

"Or lightsabers." Ezra added.

"What do you want now?" Kanan scoffed.

Bruce looked at him, "That man I was telling you about, he's on her home planet." As he pointed to Sabine.

"I think you'd better tell me more about this man, name?" Kanan said.

"The Joker," Ezra growled, "His name is The Joker."

I"M SO EXCITED FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER! Not telling you about it though. And now Superman's in the picture, and he will be for the remainder of the story. But seriously, if you have Netflix, watch the Defenders, and also Daredevil, which is pretty much Marvel Batman. Reviews are always helpful, and I'll see you in next chapter. Seeya!
