We are shown a shipping building as a man was trying to avoid someone and brought out his gun. "Stay back!"
A growling was heard, and then a beastly snarl was heard as the man was attacked. The man yelped as his gun was sent flying. The creature attacked the man and sent him down on the floor where there were some others which were a few guys and a couple of girls who were twins known as The Jokerz.
"You should've said 'heel'." One guy that was almost like a scarecrow known as Ghoul mocked the guard.
The hyena-looking creature snickered evilly at this. The group of Jokerz soon went off to make an escape. The two twins soon sprung into action.
The big guy known as Bonk was trying to drive his hover craft as the twins sat there. "It's lagging..." he complained as he tried to maneuver the craft before crashing against the twins which made them land beside him.
"He's really got a delicate touch, Dee Dee." One twin told the other.
"Delicate like a moose, Dee Dee." The other twin added.
Though he managed to pick up the large machine. "I hate ripping heavy crud like this. Gimme cash cards any day." Bonk grumbled.
"Zip it, Bonk," Chucko told him as they moved out. "The plan is get in, and get out! Fast!"
A shadow soon flew over them which didn't go unnoticed. "Huh?"
"It's a school night, boys and girls," A figure smirked to them. "I'm gonna have to call your folks."
"Too bad," added another voice. "They're gonna be real mad when they find out...!"
The hovercaft with Bonk and the Dee Dee twins soon went out of control and the girls tried very hard to hold on.
"Oh, nuts..." grumbled the second voice. "You're gonna leave now? But we went through the trouble of planning out that whole banter!"
"Follow my lead, we're going in." The first voice smirked.
Chucko soon brought out a gun and attempted to shoot the two, one of which being the Future Batman, but Bat-Mite managed to block it and veer the shot off-course. Batman soon flew upwards and landed on the hover craft while the Dee Dee twins held on for dear life. Bonk growled as he tried to punch Batman in the face only to miss and soon tried to knock him off of the craft after giving up.
Bat-Mite sighed, levitating the twins out of danger. "Don't ask me why I did it..." he groused.
"Why?" The Dee Dee twins smirked. "You like us! You really like us!"
Bat-Mite rolled his eyes. "...Whatever. Even I'm not heartless enough to let two teenagers die, even if they ARE criminals... They're still people."
"We're really touched." Dee Dee 1 replied with a small smirk.
"Yeah, yeah," Bat-Mite grunted, Piccolo-style. "But I still gotta help take down your friends."
"Say, don't you usually have someone with you?" Dee Dee 2 asked.
"Yeah, where's your giiiirlfriend?" Dee Dee 1 added.
Bat-Mite smirked. "Oh, she's due to arrive...in 3...2...now."
"SURPRISE, MUTHA-" Gothika glared as she soon jumped in, frightening the Dee Dee twins.
"Bada-bing, bada-boom!" Bat-Mite grinned. "Way to make an entrance!"
"Eh, I wanted to make it a surprise." Gothika replied.
The Dee Dee twins glared to her.
Gothika soon grabbed a hold of both of them with a smirk. "Hm... What do to do with you two?~" she mused a little.
Bat-Mite pondered for awhile, and shrugged. "Dunno!" he replied.
"Oh, well, I tried." Gothika said before throwing the Dee Dee twins over her shoulder, making them both yelp. "I don't even know which is which."
"Does it even MATTER?" asked Bat-Mite.
"Meh." Gothika shrugged before they looked up.
Batman was handling the other Jokerz on his own since that was what he trained for.
"They grow up so fast~" Gothika cooed to the new Batman.
"Yup," Bat-Mite sniffed. "I'm SO proud of 'im."
The Dee Dee twins began to fall to their deaths, but Batman had the same philosophy as Bat-Mite and soon saved them from falling with his grappling hook, only to get socked by Bonk.
"Hey, lay off. What, you wanted them to die?" Bat-Mite asked. "Thought they were your friends!"
"Gettin' rid of YOU rejects first!" Bonk smirked as he was about to bash him next.
But Bat-Mite just pulled out a mallet and pushed a button, causing a spring-loaded boxing glove to pop out, knocking Bonk in the face.
"Gotta love cartoon physics." Gothika commented.
"Hey, thanks." Batman smiled to Bat-Mite and Gothika.
"No sweat." Bat-Mite replied.
Chucko was soon seen getting a chip and once he got it, the Dee Dee twins flew in to fly away with him.
"They never quit..." Gothika glared. "They get worse every time I step foot into Gotham City... Past or Present."
"Ugh, I know. Too bad the future only increased crime..." Bat-Mite sighed. "Almost makes everything we did seem meaningless..."
"Don't think like that... We did our part..." Gothika told him. "Besides, I gotta help take care of things with a certain old friend of mine being long into retirement."
"Yeah, same here," Bat-Mite replied. "And thanks."
"You're welcome..." Gothika said before smirking. "What can I say except you're welcome, For the tides, the sun, the sky, Hey, it's okay, it's okay, You're welcome, I'm just an ordinary perky goth~"
"Hey, nice jam! I get the reference!" Bat-Mite chuckled.
Gothika smiled bashfully to that little song.
"Anyway, let's take out the trash!" Bat-Mite grinned.
"Come on then." Gothika said before moving down mysteriously with him.
"You can't catch us!" Chucko yelled out while getting away.
"Oh, really?" Bat-Mite asked before appearing out of nowhere in front of him. "BWAAAAAARRRRGGGGH!" he roared.
Chucko yelled out as that startled him and he even clenched his chest.
"Gotcha!" Bat-Mite smirked. "Big things come in small packages!"
"Why, you little-" Chucko growled at him in annoyance.
"LITTLE?!" Bat-Mite snapped, towering over him. "I dunno... From what I see, you don't look so big yourself!"
"You're gonna pay, ya pest!" Chucko glared as he soon punched Bat-Mite.
Gothika jumped down behind him for that before kicking Chucko right down and when he tried to get back up, she began to fight him, almost like Chun-Li in Street Fighter or Luna from Mortal Kombat.
"Nice save." Bat-Mite replied, before returning to normal size.
"I do what I can." Gothika replied, crossing her arms in a laid-back kind of way.
"And I LOVE it!" Bat-Mite replied. "Now let's discipline these little slugs!"
"Gladly..." Gothika replied with a small smirk. "Incoming!"
Bat-Mite turned around and braced himself. The mutant of the group soon ran in and pounced towards the both of them.
"You've been a bad doggy..." Bat-Mite smirked. "I think it's time ya found a pal to play with!" He whistled, and an older, full-grown Scrappy lunged at the mutant, tackling him.
"It's about time!" Scrappy smirked while handling the mutant. "Who's this guy then?"
"From what I've heard: Woof." Gothika said.
"Wow." Scrappy rolled his eyes to that while fighting the mutant member of The Jokerz.
"Apparently he's some kinda mutant who got spliced with hyena DNA... Some sort of twisted tribute to Bud and Lou..." Bat-Mite explained.
"Ugh..." Gothika groaned to that with a slight shudder before letting out a small gasp and held her stomach. "Ooh... I guess I had a bit of too much excitement..."
"Don't worry, we'll get going after this." Scrappy promised her.
"What he said," Bat-Mite replied. "Say, what did happen to Sayia Man and his pooch partner?"
"At home in another universe~..." Gothika said in a mysterious tone of voice, looking around before shrugging. "Eh, in this continuity, I don't know." she then added with a fourth wall break.
"I hope they didn't bite the big one, buy the farm, or get a one-way trip to the Next Dimension." Bat-Mite added as Scrappy continued dueling the hyena mutant.
"Well, Sayia Man's kind of a god actually because of Dragon Ball Z crossovers." Gothika shrugged with a small smirk.
"At this point, I'm not surprised..." Bat-Mite shrugged as Scrappy knocked Woof out with one punch.
Woof soon crashed along with the other Jokerz.
"Well, there's just so many universes." Gothika muttered slightly about the world she lived in.
"I guess, but THAT makes it fun," Bat-Mite replied. "Especially now that the delinquents are handled. Any longer and I would've neutered that hyena... By hand."
"All in a day's work..." Scrappy said. "You okay, LG? You look light-headed."
"Must've had too much excitement, I think I should lie down for a minute." Gothika replied.
"Alright... We might as well get home..." Bat-Mite sighed.
"Help me out?" Gothika asked, almost looking dizzy.
"Why wouldn't I?" Bat-Mite replied, helping her to her feet.
Gothika latched onto him as she took a quick breath as she didn't seem like herself right now. Sirens were then heard which would hopefully be police to take away The Jokerz gang.
"It's the boys in blue," Scrappy commented. "So let's get going."
Bat-Mite nodded, and they vanished.
"That ain't comin' out of my allowance." Batman muttered before he also left.
And so, they returned to the Bat Cave.
Gothika soon came in, going behind a changing panel, and came out as Cherry as she looked quite exhausted as she was with Scrappy and Bat-Mite. "I think I need a nap... For about two or three days..." she muttered to herself.
"You've earned that rest. I say we ALL have..." Bat-Mite replied. "But thanks to my spell, we should all be back to normal strength in at least a few hours..."
"Fair enough... I guess I just overdid it a little." Cherry replied.
"Everyone has their off days." Bat-Mite replied, turning back into Lionel.
"Yeah... That's true..." Cherry admitted. "I guess I'm just getting too old... Even if I look the same from when I was in high school."
"No prob; I got a disguise spell in here, too!" Lionel replied. "We can use it to disguise ourselves as teens and go undercover at McGinnis's school, or wherever he hangs out."
"Not that I would change much in appearance." Cherry smirked to herself.
"Maybe you'll have less gray hairs." Scrappy said for a joke.
Cherry gave him a deadpan death glare in response to that.
"Knock it off," Lionel retorted. "Either way, ya look like a dream. Besides, no sense in changin' what's already perfected."
"I need a drink..." Cherry said before bringing out a bottle of wine, biting the cork, spitting it aside, and then drank some of the liquid inside.
Bat-Mite just poofed up a 2-liter bottle of soda and guzzled it down. Cherry let out small hiccups once in a while and continued to drink until setting down the bottle.
"Don't overdo it." Scrappy reminded her.
"Oh, I'd never do that~" Cherry smirked innocently.
"Even if you ARE kinda hot when you're like this." Lionel added.
"I'm always hot~" Cherry giggled cheekily.
"That IS true." Lionel replied.
"Seriously, where did the time go?" Cherry asked. "Wasn't it like 1994 yesterday?"
"Yeah... Time is funny like that..." Bat-Mite shrugged.
"Maybe it's 1969?" Scrappy smiled innocently.
"You're too young to make that joke." Cherry smirked.
"Yeah," Lionel replied, as Scrappy headed out.
"I'll just hang this up outside so nobody disturbs you two's...private time." he smirked, holding up a "Do Not Disturb" sign, like the one you see at a hotel.
Lionel's face went red as a tomato.
"Very funny." Cherry rolled her eyes to that slightly.
"Hey, I'm just sayin', you two are married, might as well seal the deal!" Scrappy replied as he left.
"Goodbye, Scrappy." Cherry rolled her eyes again.
"You don't think he might have a point... Right?" Lionel blushed.
"In his own twisted little way... He does..." Cherry admitted. "I guess I could use something to get my mind off of the chaos that is Gotham City, even long after I was an innocent youth my first time visiting with my loved ones."
"Hey, sometimes everyone needs a way to take their minds off this town." Lionel replied.
"I know I do..." Cherry muttered slightly.
"Well... We might as well..." Lionel replied. "But not cuz he said to."
Cherry let out a noisy hiccup. "Excuse me then..." she then said before jumping up to her feet and going to the bathroom. "I have to freshen up."
"Cool, I'll hang back here." Lionel replied as Cherry left.
Cherry stumbled slightly since she drank quite a lot and shut the door in the bathroom behind her. Lionel took out a Secret Wars comic and started reading to pass the time. Cherry hummed herself some Chopin as she got herself ready before going back out to see Lionel, attempting to make herself look decent, even if she wasn't all there that night. Lionel glanced up from his comic...and his eyes bugged out of his head, and his jaw hit the ground.
"Sorry I took so long, I was trying to keep my balance." Cherry said as she came out.
"It's cool." Lionel replied.
"Well... Come along then~" Cherry gave a small smirk as she came closer towards him.
Lionel gulped, bracing himself. "I'm ready for this." he said to himself before smiling confidently.
"Here I come..." Cherry said before she seemed to pounce towards him with a smirk.
Lionel's eyes widened in surprise.
Two hours later...
Cherry smoked on a cigarette and soon breathed out some smoke, trying not to get it in Lionel's face, though she smirked as she felt satisfied.
"That...was amazing..." Lionel gasped, sweat running down his face.
"Probably the best." Cherry replied.
"Though I wonder...what did the Jokerz want with all that hi-tech stuff?" Lionel pondered. "Seems a little too big-time for a bunch of small-timers..."
"That's a good question..." Cherry admitted. "They must be up to something pretty big."
"Then we'll hafta investigate..." Lionel replied. "At least tomorrow."
"Not right now... Too soon..." Cherry smirked.
"Yeah...you're right..." Lionel replied, kissing her.
Cherry lightly purred from that, almost like a sly kitten.
Lionel blushed at that. "We'll start the investigation tomorrow." he replied, getting under the covers.
"Mm-hmm..." Cherry nodded before she put her out her cigarette on the ashtray on the night stand and soon yawned. "I know I earned some rest after tonight."
"Yup...g'night, angel..." Lionel yawned, nicknaming her.
Night..." Cherry muffled as she soon turned over to get some sleep.
