Author's notes: So, because Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice won't come out until two years, I've had to pick story elements from the New 52 for some characters, like Batman's and Cyborg's, backgrounds. That however makes me worried that I may have left the HP-side of the world too much unused, so would it be too much asked for the followers and favores to say if I'm going the right way or if this is the right way?

New Dark Mark

Metropolis, Hobbs' Bay

Two black suit and tie wizards walked into a Big Belly Burger. As they took off their sunglasses to see better in the hamburger restaurant, they could see their contact, wearing his old undercover clothes and glasses, sitting in a table next to window working on a laptop with his fingers moving blurry. The reporter in glasses lifted his gaze from his laptop and invited them to sit with him.

''Jules Vinfield and Vincent Vega? I already ordered Burgers for everyone.''

''Yeah, mate, you got me into watching muggle movies,'' Ron said sitting down with Harry in Clark's table, ''but this isn't a Kahuna Burger.''

''What movie is that from?'' Harry asked. ''And I don't see any food.''

''It's from Pulp Fiction and the order is coming soon,'' Clark said fist pumping with Ron andd clicking something on his laptop. ''Sorry about the Watchtower situation.''

''Not your fault. Muffindo,'' Harry said looking at the menu and made the muffindo spell under the table to keep their conversation private. ''We were talking about Bruce Wayne's connection to the Death Eaters before you had to leave.''

''Right, according to Batman, the Death Eater being spliced with the Talons, it's Talon-side as an assassin pronged to act on it's natural behavior, which includes killing Waynes and other high class citizens,'' Clark said reading from his laptop. ''That is one theory. Another one is that back in '97 when they were captured, a large number of them were captured near Wayne's office buildings. Or someone sent it there to especially to kill Bruce Wayne.''

''Any more reasons?'' Ron asked, to which Clark responded turning his laptop towards him and showed the list of reasons in Batman's report. ''Oh-kay, that's a lot of reasons.''

''What about Bruce Wayne?'' Harry asked while Ron read Clark's laptop. ''And where did you find Crouch?''

''Who?''

''That man you brought from that red portal in Cardiff,'' Harry said pulling an old Wanted-poster. ''I recognized him as Bartemius Crouch Junior.''

Clark took the Wanted-poster and looked at it with a pondering look on his face before shaking his head.

''It can't be him,'' Clark said handing the Wanted-poster back. ''That man is a clone of a man who can change his face. He is who made Lobo attack the Watchtower to take Batman to a parallel universe along with other versions of him.''

Harry looked back at Clark with a very confused look on his face.

''Sounds confusing, I know,'' Clark said noticing it, ''but the facts state that the Valeyard is not your Bartemius Crouch Junior.''

''There is one way to know,'' Harry said making a mental note to check 'Valeyard's' left hand once the Auror Office's contacts managed to appeal US government the access to him at Belle Reve. ''So, what was the situation with Bruce Wayne?''

''After the Watchtower fell from the orbit, we had to relocate him,'' Clark answered, keeping his cool as a reporter protecting his sources. ''Wayne is still kept in protective custody of a League member. He views it as house arrest, but doesn't complain as long as he has female member in his company.''

Beneath Wayne Manor, Batcave

Batman inserted memory-stick to the Bat-Computer and set the files on it to be downloaded before removing his mask and sat down in his chair closing his eyes. He knew there were other people in the cave but ignored them for now. Until the download would be complete, Batman would rest and gather his strength before going back to work.

''Alfred,'' Zatanna asked noticing the familiar routine, ''how long has Bruce been going on micro naps?''

''Ever since the Leviathan attacked Gotham, I'm afraid,'' Alfred responded very depressed watching glass vitrine containing a red-green-yellow uniform with a green domino-mask and combat-boots. ''The boys have been taking it harshly on their own. Master Richard is working in New York, over time. Master Jason has his own team to work with as has Master Timothy and they could be anywhere in the world right now. As for Miss Cassandra, I just know she is in Hong Kong.''

Alfred looked turned back to Zatanna as he continued:

''Everyone deals with loss their own way, but in this family, everyone does it by pushing themselves to their work.

''Oh,'' Zatanna said very sorry and looked back at the semi-resting Bruce with sadness. ''I'm sorry to hear about Damian. I noticed that Bruce was a little edgy at the meeting, but-''

''Ms. Zatara,'' Alfred said placing his hand on Zatanna's shoulder, ''I am sure Master Bruce appreciates your sympathy. Of late, he has managed calm himself down from his mourning, but no parent can ever truly move on from loosing their child. Even with all the time they have or support they are given.''

''DOWNLOAD COMPLETE!''

Bruce's eyes exploded open and rose up from his chair with freshly rested person's speed while pulling his mask back on. Then he removed the memory stick from the Bat-Computer and turned to a table next to it. Pushing buttons on it's console, Batman made the remains of the Death Eater rise from the cold storage he had built after the Court of Owls had attacked the cave years earlier and had needed to temporarily hold the Talons until they were taken to Blackgate. For occasions like this, it worked as morgue.

''What are you expecting to find?'' Zatanna asked joining Batman as Alfred moved upstairs.

''Anything I might have missed,'' Batman said beginning the autopsy. ''I just got to do the preliminary autopsy before we had the League meeting.''

''What is there to find since you were there to see the cause of death?''

''If I had a week, I wouldn't have time to list out every forensic detail you can find in a corpse,'' Batman said removing the Death Eater's mask and examined the head. ''Nothing new here, teeth filling from the Talon-splicing and- wait.''

''What is it?'' Zatanna asked as Batman pulled a tooth out of the corpse's mouth. ''That is gross.''

''I have punched fillings out of Talons before, but this Death Eater has more than one,'' Batman said holding the pulled out tooth with clinical forceps and walked with it to the Bat-Computer. ''But this isn't one of the Court's fillings.''

''What makes you say that?'' Zatanna asked as Batman brought an enlarged image one of the Court's tooth fillings.

''Just for a moment,'' Batman said scanning the tooth he had pulled out from the Death Eater and brought it's image next to Court's image. ''Notice anything different?''

All Zatanna could do was nod. The images of the fillings set beside were same shaped, but the carvings in them were not the same. In the Court's filling there was the understandable carved image of an owl's face, but in the filling of the tooth Batman had pulled out there was a more startling image of a three eyed skull.

''No serpent tongue,'' Zatanna noted looking at it. ''An updated Dark Mark?''

''Could be,'' Batman said working on the Bat-Computer. ''Superman said he would meeting with those wizards again. I'll send this to him so he could ask if they know about it.''

BLIM!

''Um, Clark, something just-'' Ron said looking at the screen of Clark's laptop. ''Some kind of circled A just appered on the-''

''Give me that,'' Clark said taking his laptop back. ''Guys, if there would be Death Eaters coming back, new Death Eaters, would they change the old Dark Mark?''

''What?'' Harry asked.

''Batman just sent me an image of a tooth filling he pulled from that Death Eater's mouth,'' Clark said turning the screen back at Harry and Ron. ''Does this look like a new Dark Mark to you?''

Harry and Ron looked at the image on Clark's laptop screen with surprise and confusion.

''A three eyed skull?''

''And no snake tongue,'' Harry noted, ''that is new. But did you say this was on a tooth filling?''

''According Batman, yes,'' Clark said nodding his head.

''A new Dark Mark could mean new Death Eaters,'' Ron said as Harry rubbed his eyes under his glasses. ''But Voldemort is dead. We all saw the Spectre-''

''All we saw was Spectre turn into a tornado and engulf him,'' Harry said. ''Still, Hitler is dead too and there are still nazies around.''

BLEEP! BLEEP! BLEEP! BLEEP!

''Kent,'' Clark said to his ringing phone and pulled his laptop back, beginning to speed type again. ''I thought I just sent it. Let me check. No, , that was my fault. I just saved it, not send it. I'll just- There. It's coming to you now, Mr. White. Did you get it? Good. I'll be back in Metropolis next week unless the assignment get extension. Otherwise-''

The call ended and Clark put his phone down. Harry and Ron gave him confused looks.

''I still have my day job as reporter,'' Clark said reminding the two with his attire. ''My boss sent me on assignment abroad, but I fly back occasionally when I need to be here as Superman.''

''Aah, right,'' Harry said. ''But that new Dark Mark is threatening news if there are new Death Eaters.''

BLEEP! BLEEP! BLEEP!

''It's Cyborg,'' Clark said looking at his phone's caller ID before answering it. ''How is the Watchtower's situation- You have seen it where?!''

''What?'' Ron asked.

''It's Cyborg,'' Clark said. ''He got the image of the tooth filling too and he says he has seen that three eyed skull before.''

Happy Harbour, Rhode Island

The fallen Justice League Watchtower stood in the hilt of a rocky peninsula in the shore with the present members fixing it as they could. There were also US Military personnel assisting in the repairing. The area was closed and surrounded from outsiders, but that didn't stop the old man from observing it from a safe distance. It was actually hard to miss when it was lit with bright lights to help the workers see what they were doing.

''How the hell did you get here from Britain?'' a woman appearing behind the old man asked.

''I see what you meant,'' the old man said looking up, ''but these lights are ruining the stars from showing.''

''That's just here,'' the woman said. ''Few miles that way it gets better. It's something I used to go with Johnny.''

''I believe you,'' the old man said looking at the direction of a cliff and rocks where the woman was pointing at. ''It's good spot for body dumping.''

''So, you got it?''

The old man lifted up his dentist's bag and opened it showing the woman what was inside.

''Research, timing, correct expertise and a lot of patience,'' the old man said picking the contained object out and held it up facing him. ''To be or not to be? You know I used to play Hamlet?''

''What exactly is that ugly thing?'' the woman asked looking at a jaded skull with three eye holes.

''This, my dear Rhonda,'' the old man said grinning victoriously, ''is why we are winning.''

Author's notes: They think the situation is like this, while really it is like that. But what do you think it could mean?
