Batman face twitched slightly.
This was worisome. Conversation stopped in the room as everyone got a VERY bad feeling down their spine.
The sides of his mouth moved slightly upward.
Kyne Rayner, who was sitting across from the Dark Knight slifted uncomfortably in his chair, wishing that his ring gave him instantaneous transportation powers.
Flash, who was more familiar with Batman as he was the father of one of his best friends started to panic. NO one had EVER seen the Batman give, what was for him, a large, open smile.
Batman's smile widened into something that was obviously a great smile on anyone elses face. This had an uncanny effect on the greatest heroes of the planet. It even gave the reservist who were there pause. Including Orion.
Eel O'Brian, known as plastic man melted into a puddle.
Wonder Woman reached for her lasso.
Flash ran out of the room.
The Martian Manhunter's eyebrows twitched as he couldn't read the Batman's mind at this moment.
Kyle fainted.
Superman pulled back from the table a little.
The reservists and members of all the other teams gathered in the hall of justice steped back, not knowing what was happening.
Robin started to grin wildly, which unnerved all of his team mates in Young Justice.
The grin on Batgirls face, which could be clearly seen under the mask caused several of them to step back, many knowing her reputation as being as dark as the Bat's.
Dick Greyson, Nightwing to his associates here just started to chuckle.
Everyone in the room paused, staring in horror at what was happening.
There was a saying in the superhero community. One which was taken to heart by every hero, every official, and anyone who had ever run into the Bat or his children. Members of the Batfamily do not know how to laugh, or have human emotions. They may fake it and they may try to act like ordinary people, but through it all, they had this dour attitude, and commanded fear.
The almost unspoken mantra for the younger heros, spoken softly and not within hearing range of any of the Bat's family was, "The Bat knows all. The Bat sees all. The Bat was scary. His family was scary. No one crossed the Bat. The Bat and his family were always serious. The Bat and his family do not joke. No one crossed the Bat's family. The Bat could destroy every superbeing who ever lived. They lived at HIS pleasure."
To see this...Paragon of Silence smiling, and hearing and seeing, what was for the Bat's Family, Laughing like Hyena's caused the entire room to start to slowly back away.
With no small trepedation, Superman stated, "Then you have a mission plan?"
Still smiling, Batman stated, "One person will do the job. You will train after that. All of you."
Batman and his family walked out of the room, while the gathered heroes shuddered.
Donna Troy stated it for the entire room. "One person? We gathered to form a task force to fight this army, and Batman wasnts to send one person?"
The laughter of four people, five if you included the program known as Oracle, drifted back to the room from the direction the Bat's family had gone.
Orion fainted.
The mission was mostly a success.
One person, went in.
He was not seen.
He did not leave a calling card except for disabled soldiers.
He left no clue except for equipment that was mangled. Equipment that Superman and Superboy would have trouble destroying.
The only person who was conscious after the complete destruction of the Imperiex weapons and defenses was a blubering wreck. That person was Brainiac, who was too incapacitated to care what happened to him. But the good thing was that they were able to extract all the information they needed to find out who was behind the plot, and if anyone on Earth helped them.
Because of that, Lex Luthor, former president of the United States was now in prision, facing the world court as a war criminal, and a traitor to the planet Earth.
The heroes gulped as they approached the new training facility that the Bat's family had set up on the far side of the moon.
It was a facility so large, that it encompassed almost a quarter of the surface space, took three months to build, and was built with Earth, Kryptonian, New Genises, and several other technologies.
It was a facility designed to extreme standards and according to the whims of the Bat's clan. Specifically, the one who singlehandedly stopped a war before it started. Someone the Bat had held in reserve until this time.
One that now terrified the gathered teams of heroes.
Swallowing their fear, they went into the main room, to see the entire Bat family in Senza facing a person who's face was completely covered like Batgirl's.
"Training."
Batman replied, "I know."
"Stealth."
"They see no need of it," Replied Nightwing.
"Powers."
Batgirl made a sign.
Sinceeveryone was paying VERY careful attention, they noticed the slight frown that Robin wore.
"Easy."
Robin simply nodded.
The entire Bat family got up with the person and they bowed to each other.
Batman turned. "This is Chaos. He trains me. He will train you. Do not be late."
After the family left, Chaos looked at the gathered heroes and gave a smile that could be seen from under the mask. The gathered heroes gulped, including Superman. If this person trains the Bat...
They were sure that they had just entered hell.
"That went well Bruce." commented Dick Grayson.
Bruce smiled, along with the rest of the clan as they ate a rare family dinner together.
"Was it right sending them to the moon?" Barbara asked.
"No choice," Tim said, "If they stayed in Gotham, the city would have been destroyed."
Bruce raised a glass in toast, "Here is to Ranma and Tenchi. Long may they have students."
The entire clan, including Alfred, toasted to that happy thought as well.
