"Batgirl, you need to get out of here," Batman instructed as they fought Reverb together, "We can't run the risk of Gotham City losing both of us."
The villain continued to open portals, attempting to trap the heroes and they had no idea where they would end up if they got sucked in.
She shook her head, "I'm not leaving you here," she argued as she flung a Batarang at Reverb, watching disappointedly as he disappeared it with another portal.
"I've been training you to take over. We both know that I'm getting too old for this," Batman responded while summoning the Batmobile to their location to take her back to the Batcave where she'd be safe.
Batgirl was shocked as she heard the roar of the engine nearing their location, "We're more than crime-fighting partners," she challenged as she fought back her tears.
"I know," Batman responded with a nod as he distracted Reverb long enough for her to get in the Batmobile.
The last thing Batgirl saw as the vehicle took her from the scene was Batman falling through one of Reverb's portals.
Three months later…
"Aren't you over these games, Trickster?" Batgirl questioned as she disarmed his explosives and made her way to handcuff him. "We do this every few months," she added with a sigh. Fighting crime wasn't as fun now that she did it alone.
Trickster shook his head, "Not so fast, bat lady." He opened his jacket to reveal another bomb strapped to his chest with the timer set for thirty seconds.
Batgirl rolled her eyes as she started to think over how to disarm the new obstacle.
Before she could act, she was distracted by blue lightning taking over the scene.
When the dust settled, Trickster was sporting handcuffs Batgirl had never seen before and there were two identical young men standing before her.
"Who are you two? The Wonder Twins?" she joked as she signaled for the police to take Trickster.
One of the replied, "No, we're both Barry Allen, the Flash. We need your help to find Batman," he explained causing her heart to sink.
"I wish I could help you," she answered, "But, Batman is dead. You're three months too late. How are there two of you?" she asked, changing the subject once they were alone. "My real name is Haisley Wilson, by the way."
The same Barry spoke, "I went back in time to stop my Mother's death and in the process, I ended up on another Earth with this Barry. We've tried to fix my mistake, but instead, things have gotten worse. We unleashed General Zod in another Batman's world. So, we came to get reinforcements to take back. What happened to your Batman?"
Haisley's head was spinning as she listened to Barry explain what was going on. "Different Earths? Do you know how crazy that sounds?" she inquired, choosing to focus on one thing at a time.
The other Barry replied, "We do, but we can prove it if you join us. We'll take any help we can get. Do you mind sharing what happened to Batman?"
She sighed as she thought back to the day she never liked to remember, "He and I were fighting Reverb. He can open portals to .. well, we don't know where. Batman sent me away just before he fell through one of them."
"Come with us," the first Barry requested, "We'll bring you back once the threat is eliminated."
She shrugged, "I don't see why I can't. Try not to make a bigger mess," she added as the two Barry's grabbed onto her and started running.
A/N: I know this is all over the place DC wise but I just had to write this story after seeing Michael Keaton return as Batman in The Flash trailer.
