To the Batmobile!
A sleek black car, hardly distinguishable from the shadows, speeds toward the highway exit with barely a sound. It was the sort of car that would have car enthusiasts drool if they caught a glimpse.

And he was behind the wheel.

Hey, Batman was retired but a car like this couldn't be left to collect dust.

	"Good idea. I'm starting to think we should trade the bikes in for one of the batmobiles more often. There's a cave full of them collecting dust." Which was a damn shame in his opinion. He starts taking the side streets to get out of the city, mainly because just the batmobile passing by dropped crime rates in neighbourhoods. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well he can complain after we take them. Asking him permission for anything is going to get you a no. Besides, we're using them for what they were built for, crimefighting. It's not like we're joy riding," he smirks. Okay well tonight was a joyride but.. exceptions making rules and all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Maria laughed. "I like the way you think. But I better get a chance to drive. Otherwise I'm so telling on you." She wouldn't, but he didn't know that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh you wouldn't," he frowned. "How about we switch after the next car chase? Seems fair." And he so wanted to drive this in a more...daredevil manner. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Don't believe you," he insists. He's about to point out that it would make Bruce even more vigilant for joy riding vigilantes when he's cut off by sirens in the distance and the sound of squealing tires. "Doubt those guys want to pull over the batmobile," he almost cackles. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Just try me," she said. "Don't let me drive and your butt is toast." Maria rolled her eyes. "Just outrun them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I could take you any day." "Nah, that'd be no fun. Let's go stop whatever they're chasing," he grinned just as a van clearly breaking speed limits hit a bump and literally jumped into their view. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Clearly you don't know how to make things more fun, I'm giving them a head start," he chuckles and rolls his eyes at her. Robin waits until the van is almost at the end of the street before he turns to go after it. "Are you on weapon systems duty?" The batmobile speeds up as he weaves through traffic with practiced ease and a ridiculous grin. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Just go get them," she said. "No showing off. Yeah, yeah. Pain in the ass." She started to charge up the EMP generator. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"And you say you're fun," he says while blatantly ignoring the no showing off part. He probably gives a few drivers mini heartattacks with how close he gets, but only seems to enjoy it even more. "You know, half the fun is seeing the drivers of the getaway car look back and find the Batmobile on their tails," he continues as if he hadn't just taken a roundabout way just so he could drive them off an overpass later. What? It would cut off the van and it was fun.

	The batmobile continues swerving through traffic. This time against the flow, which was only more fun in his opinion. "Good, and I don't want to hear about it. I'm sure your boy scout wouldn't mind though." He has to poke fun at her once in a while. It was only fair. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
