Terry was impossible to shop for. Maria knew his birthday was approaching and she had no freaking clue what to get him. Then again she wasn't much of a shopper to start with and having a difficult person to shop for made the task all that much harder.

Inspiration struck. She got him a few pairs of boxers that had "Big Boy Boxers" on them. After all, everyone had to have their big boy boxers or big girl panties. She also got him a sweater and dinner at one of Gotham's nicest restaurants for him and his girlfriend.

She left the wrapped items in the Batcave along with a card.

Maxine was working on the DNA test for the blood from the fight scene that Maria had mentioned. It had been a long shot that they were going to find anything testing the DNA for a match but still it had to be done since you never know. Plus it would give them the DNA profile for future use in case the ever needed it.

Maxine was listening to Beyonce on her IPod when the results came up. “No way,” Maxine said get up suddenly from her seat this was big news

As fast as you could Maxine had a message sent out to all the people she felt would want to hear about this saying, Big New About the Red Hood meet me in the Batcave.

Maria wasn't exactly sure what to get Marissa for her birthday, but she had to get something. It was Marissa's eighteenth birthday and that was a big one. Maria remembered hers quite fondly. It was the birthday that ended up sitting in jail cell for a few hours. The memory made her smile.

Maria had gone the safe route in terms of a gift. A certificate for the works at a great spa Maria recently found and the best Belgian truffles. The gifts were accompanied by a card and Maria urged Marissa to go raise some hell on her birthday and to have fun.

The city of Star City looked deserted. The citizens had either fled or had been turned into black lanterns. At the heart of the city was the entity known as Nekron. Nekron used the city as his base as his black lanterns ravaged the Earth.

The black lanterns increased their numbers each day and the power levels of the black lantern battery increased with each person that died.

Soon Nekron would have enough power to obliterate all life on this planet.

Gotham City was at it's boiling point.

In the streets, the wars between the crime families had reached its breaking point, with the death of another family head that previous night. The police had their hands full with trying to break up riots.

It had taken some very careful planning on his part, but Hush had managed to break out every prisoner in Arkham Asylum. The guards were dealing with their own personal hell, as the most dangerous criminals in Gotham City were all out of their cells, and they were trying to keep them from getting out into the city.

And now...it was time to test Batman and Robin. Hush delivered a package to Terry McGinnis, with pictures of Dana Tan tied up and beaten, along with his location, a warehouse in Gotham Harbor.

Attached was a simple note:

Terry sat in the Batcave, in costume, but without his mask on. His mask, he was holding his hands, just staring at it.

Bruce was dead. Bruce had been killed by the same assassin that Terry had stopped from killing Bruce earlier that week, at the business meeting.

He hadn't been there to protect him this time, though. Last time he had been there. Last time he had stopped it.

Damnit. What the hell was he supposed to do now? He blamed himself for not being there when Bruce needed him the most, and he wouldn't hold it against her if Marissa did too.

Terry just continued to sit in the chair in front of the monitor screen, staring at his mask like it held all the answers.

Crius and Coeus walked side by side toward the massive factory that belong to LexCorp. Crius picked up a parked car and threw it at the building. Coeus mirrored his brother's actions and launched a car of his own at the building. They made their way slowly through the parking lot and threw the employees cars at the factory.

The young brunette girl sits bound to the chair, crying softly as she looks down the body of a petite blond girl, no younger than twenty-five. The blond woman wears a cowl or a hood, laying unmoving on the cold concrete. Her body is positioned in solemn rest as she lies on the floor, as though she were only sleeping rather than dead.

This had all been a complete waste of his time. Why his dad sent him to talk to the eccentric billionaire Bruce Wayne was beyond him. His dad had said to trust him so he had told him the whole thing about a group of demons appearing out of nowhere and attacking him. He had left out some of the more graphic details about how he had dealt with the problem a since he didn’t want to give the old guy a heart attack. Some people just don’t age as well as his dad.

When Mr. Wayne said there was nothing he could do to help. He had expected that but for the life of him he could not figure out why his dad had sent him there. He left the manor quite annoyed and was going to walk till he had a chance to cool off. Sometime his dad could be really cryptic and unhelpful.

What Makes a Dad

God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,
The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle's flight,
The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
The depth of a family need,
Then God combined these qualities,
When there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so,

He called it ... Dad

Maxine had asked Terry if he could take her to Mr. Wayne because there was something she wanted to talk to him about. She knew how to get to Wayne manor and even how to get into the bat cave but Terry and Bruce weren’t comfortable with her heading up there herself. She knew It was a secret identity thing so she didn’t complain and with what she wanted to talk to both Bruce and Terry about she want to be on very good terms with both of them. Maxine wanted to take a more active role in the whole superhero thing. Last time she had tried that with Bruce he had gotten her arrested and Terry never seem comfortable when in the past she had forced her way into helping him, but they had all come a long way since then.
