Ch.36: Batsy's (Half) Birthday!
"What the heck are you guys doing?" Danny asked, watching as the various Leaguers hung streamers and tied colorful balloons around the large main room. The Ghost Teen was confused, tilting his head to the side with a dumbfound expression. He wasn't quite sure what to make of the strange scene.
Flash zoomed up beside him. "We're getting Batsy's surprise party ready!"
Danny raised an eyebrow dryly. "Batman's birthday is six months from now."
The speedster visibly deflated in annoyance. "Yeah we know but every time his birthday comes around, he doesn't come up to the Watchtower for a week. We try to do it random times of the year."
"So you're doing his half-birthday this year?" Danny asked.
"Yep."
"He'll probably figure it out."
"Yeah… We know."
Danny cackled lowly while patting Flash on the back. He went off to find a seat and see how this whole thing would crash and burn. Batman's way of crushing dreams was very amusing when you weren't on the receiving end of it. He crushed Dick's dreams the other day. It was popcorn worthy.
The teen watched the Leaguers set up the rest the party, smirking amused.
After they finished setting up the party, the Leaguers began discussing how they would bait the Dark Knight into coming up to the Watchtower. He didn't come up as often as most people thought. He usually did it just to get away from Jason. Sometimes Dick. It depended on the day.
They somehow came the conclusion Superman should do it.
The Man of Steel nervously called Batman on the computer over video-chat. On the second ring, the Dark Knight picked up with an irritated expression.
"What?"
Danny began laughing quietly into his hand. He mouthed 'gotta love Batman' to the ceiling.
"Batman, we've got a problem." Superman said urgently. The teen had to give him props for actually looking and sounding nervous.
"What's the problem?" Batman asked dryly.
"Doomsday's back."
Batman stared at the Man of Steel silently for a moment.
"Good luck taking him down."
The Dark Knight cut the connection abruptly, leaving Superman to gape at the screen in shock.
In the back, Danny roared with laughter. Even though he was still on a chair, he was lying on his back and kicking his feet in the air. Tears rolled down his face as he laughed hysterically, even though he looked very close to passing out because of lack of oxygen to his lungs.
The Leaguers glared at the teen as he fell off the chair and rolled on the ground.
"I'm done." Flash said before stomping off.
Danny's giggle fit got worse and he did, eventually, pass out.
Batman just signed their death certificates.
