Earth Prime, The Waverider
"Captain Lance, I've detected an Encore in New York City" said Gideon. "What are we dealing with Gideon?" asked Sara. "I don't think you would believe me if I told you Captain Lance" said Gideon. "Try me" challenged Sara. "Dracula. In the current year of 2020" said Gideon. "Wait... Dracula as in Count Dracula?" asked Nate. "He doesn't like to be called Count. He takes it as an insult. He prefers Vlad Dracula" explained Gideon. "Course the bastard takes it personally when people call him Count. Bit of a stereotype" said Constantine as he lights his cigarette. "Dracula huh? I'm in" added Mick. "Alright Gideon where is ol' Drac at right now?" asked Sara. "Currently at a charity benefit hosted by Tony Stark" answered Gideon. "Well that's where we're heading. Pack your garlic and stakes cause we're about to get all Van Helsing on his ass" Sara. "Just pray we get to him first. Apparently some bloke is owed money from Dracula" said Constantine as The Legends set a course for modern day New York.
New York City after the arrest of L. Thompson Lincoln and his Co horts,
"Wait? What do you mean Dracula? Like that guy from those really old movies about vampires?" asked Peter Parker. "He's been busy these past few nights, without you even noticing" said Marc Spector. "Start explaining" Demanded Kate Kane. "In case you haven't noticed, Dracula has been on a murder spree leaving bite marks on his victims necks. I know it has been him since I've got a collegue who's been handling Vampires as well. Told me there's a connection to these murders. Plus this is personal" explained Marc. "How personal are we talking about?" asked Peter. "He owes me money" said Marc intensely.
Kate and Peter look at each with disbelief. "Soooo, Count Dracula is currently on a murder spree and the only reason you're after him is that he owes you money? Yeah. That makes sense." said Kate. "Well, as long as I've known him before The Crisis happened, he's... kinda out there" whispered Peter. "You trust him?" asked Kate as she whispered back to him. "He means well. Just brutal, brooding, kinda crazy, all about vengeance. He's kinda like New York's version of that cousin of yours" explained Peter as he whispered to Kate. "Fine. If it means catching a murderer and taking them off the streets, I'm in" Kate agrees. "We're in" said Peter. "Why do you need us?" asked Kate. "Kate Kane, she who defeated Nocturna over in Gotham. And Peter Parker, he who has defeated Morbius The Living Vampire. The great Khonshu has told me your victories and has tasked me to recruit you both to defeat Vlad Dracula" explained Marc. "I'm sorry what? Khonshu?" asked Kate. "It's the Egyptian God of the Moon" explained Peter. "Yes. Khonshu has choses me to his his Knight of vengeance as I bring justice against criminals in this city. He grants me great power the fuller the moon. But I cannot do this alone. I need your help" explained Marc.
"Like Parker said, we're in. Any idea where he's going be?" asked Kate. "Dracula is about to attend a charity benefit Stark is hosting. If we're going after him, we're gonna need to blend in. I might have some disguises to help us blend in. Come with me" said Marc as he fired up his Moon Copter.
