((Enter Bruce from the surrounding area of Gotham))
Bruce walked into the city, still lost and confused. He wondered down the sidewalks for a while, uncontentiously listening to people's thoughts about Bruce as he passed them by. One in particular caught his attention. 'I hope he starts coming by the orphanage to help again.' and he started towards Crime Ally.
While crossing one of the streets the loud sound of a car horn blasted out at Bruce. He looked up at the speeding car and a voice came from behind him. "WATCH OUT!" A young man tackled Bruce to the other side of the car and out of harm's way.
"Dude, you need to be more care- Holy ham in a hand basket. You're Bruce Wayne." The young man helped Bruce up to his feet. "Everyone's been so worried about you Mr. Wayne. If you need a ride somewhere you can count on me." He motioned towards a cab parked by a parking meter.
Bruce looked at the young man, getting what he knew about him. "Yes. Ride..." He said in the voice that the man remembered from speaking to Bruce before.
The young man helped Bruce to the Cab. "Name's Jimmy if you don't remember. So where do you need to go Mr, Wayne. Won't even charge you fare."
Bruce stared at the young man again and slowly opened his mouth to speak. "Home..."

Damian Wayne was busy roof-hopping, having been on patrol for several hours, and he was just about to call it a night-- er, day... when he noticed a very familiar figure getting into a cab down below.
... Was that... Bruce?!

Bruce sighed and subconsciously picked up on Damian in the area, who was projecting his thoughts of the 'real' Bruce Wayne out in his direction. He stopped and looked back in the direction that Damian was, staring out at seemingly nothing.
"Are you alright Mister Wayne?" Jimmy looked back at the highly respected man.
"Yes, Jimmy. I'm fine." He shook his head and closed the door to the cab.
Jimmy kept looking back at Bruce. "Are you sure you don't need a doctor? I think you might of had some trauma from what ever it is that kept you away so long."
"No no... I'm fine" He smiled the normal Bruce Wayne's 'everything's alright' smile.

Damian froze, noticing his "father" looking in his direction... and mostly likely at Damian himself, knowing the Bat. He hid in the shadows, not wanting to reveal himself as a Robin to the cab driver... but at the same time he was eager to go up to his father.

"Alright Mr. Wayne" Jimmy drove off down the road. He was careful to keep an eye on Bruce, who seemed to be thinking intently.
Bruce watched the people on the streets go by for a while before sighing and sitting up straight once the buildings began to disperse.
By this point Jimmy was pulling into the driveway to the Wayne Manor
((Exit Bruce to Wayne Manor.))

((Enter Misty and C.J. from Surrounding Areas of Gotham.))
Misty grinned, trying to keep herself from putting a vice grip around anything she could get her hands on as the bat mobile blazed through the streets of Gotham.

C.J., a man usually known for being totally NUTS, was actually pretty calm at 300MPH. Looking over at Misty he smiled. "Here, hold on to my hand." he said, looking ahead of the road, he saw a tow truck ahead of them stop. Dammit dammit dammit DAMMIT! There's no WAY I can stop in time. Not without giving her whiplas- wait, this is the Batmobile. What kinda gadgets did Bruce put in this one?! he thought. That's when he saw the Tow Truck lowering the bed down at just the right degree. Makeshift ramp time?
Around that time, he also found the Afterburners. "Hold on, sugar. Here we go!!" he yelped, charging the "ramp" and hit the Afterburners. Launching the Batmobile, with Misty and C.J. in tow, high into the air. Yes, reader, he just pulled a Dukes of Hazzard-style Jump, in the middle of Gotham, in the Batmobile.
"YEEEEEEEEEEE-HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" C.J. yelped. He was getting into this pretty well!

Misty shrieked as the the thing became airborn. One hand gripped onto the door tightly as the other pressed against the dashbord. She closed her eyes tightly and waited for the car to hit the ground hard once they landed.

C.J. on the other hand was laughing. Holding onto the wheel, the Batmobile came down almost like in the movies.
WHAM!!
The batmobile landed on the other side of the intersection. Many people stopped to actually see the Batmobile thundering down the road. Little did they know that there was a stocky, not-quite-so-menacing-as-the-Bat Rockabilly singer at the wheel. Laughing at what happened, he looked over at Misty, smiling.
"It's okay now, hon. You can look!" he said, drifting into a turn when he saw a sign pointing towards Gotham General.

Misty let out a deep, shaky breath and opened her eyes. Her grip on the dash board and door relaxed a bit before she looked over to CJ. "Well...at least the butterflies are keeping me from feeling anything right now..." she said a little shakily. A small grin on her face.

C.J. eased down on the throttle as he smiled back at Misty. "Some'in tells me we're gon' be laughin' at that in the future." he said with a blush. Looking at her with a smile. "You ain't too shook up, are ya?" he asked her, keeping a casual hand on the wheel. All he had to do now was follow the signs to Gotham Hospital and he'd be good to go.
What he didn't notice, however, was the police car or two following the Batmobile a liiiiiitle too close.

/// Nice. And I'll have to leave in a few minutes. Thanks for waiting up for me. smile ////
Misty's smile grew a bit and she relaxed more in her seat. Moving her hands back down to her stomach. "I'll have a mix of this and car sickness once my stomach catches up with me. But...no. I'm not in the middle of mangled metal, so I'm fine. Shook up would be hanging onto the top of this thing and trying to dodge a bladed tail aimed for my head."

((No problem, hon. smile ))
C.J. smirked. "I don't think we'll have to deal with all THAT." he said with a shrug. Besides, if we wanted to do that, I think we left an armored snake half blown-up in the sewers of Gotham a few blocks up! he thought. Of course, just when they were talking, he saw the sirens and lights of Gotham's "finest" coming up on their rear. He sighed a little.
"Sorry to upset yer stomach hon, but I think there are two Smokeys that are tailgaitin' us. Dunno why, we're only goin' 110!" he said with a laugh. Clearly months upon months of watching Burt Reynolds and the Dukes of Hazzard had kept the young lad well prepared for this.

Misty frowned and glanced over into the rear-view mirror. The flashing red and blue lights weren't hard to find. Her stomach churned again and she groaned as she sank a bit in her seat. ”Guess we'll have to loose them before I get dropped off anywhere...” she said defeatedly, holding her stomach. They certainly couldn't stop at the hospital with these guys chasing them. And they definitely couldn't let them see that it wasn't Batman behind the wheel. As far as she knew, he was still kidnapped with a nice long list of other super heroes who hadn't been seen or heard from for months.
”I guess Batman never goes over ninety-five, huh?” she asked, glancing over at C.J with a small grin.
