Brigade was listening to Jack, but it did not respond. It was attempting to use Google Earth to locate Jack's car.
Poof!
Mr. Mxyzptlk reappeared in front of the two, and he had a gleeful expression on his face.
"Good luck tryin' to find that car of yours," he said with a sneer. "I hid it in the last place you'll ever think of to find it!"

Jack thought for a while before walking past Brigade and Mxyzptlk. He made his way deeper into the cave and up to the hole that he had first appeared in. "Nope! I don't think it's here Brigade!"
He walked back to the other two and looked at Brigade. "We're going to Bullock's place. That's always where I look fir-....." He looked back towards where the hole was. "Usually look first."
"And my guess is that my watch doesn't work at all now, does it?" He finally looked to Mxyzptlk.

"I doubt it, but if that's the case, I didn't mess with it..." Mxy replied.

Jack looked at his watch momentarily. "Yah, with my luck I fell on it..."
He looked up at Mxyzptlk. "Well thank you Mix-little... Pickle-lick..." Jack got agitated, not able to say the name right. "You know what? I'll just call you Bob... Or Dood." ((It's spelled like that because I'm making a reference.))

 [Enter Jinx ('Batgirl') from Gotham City] One of the Batcycles drove in with a screech of it's tires. 'Batgirl' turned off the bike, put down the kickstand with venom, and practically strode off the motorbike. After tossing off the protective helmet, Jinx hadn't broke her angered stride as she muttered curses in Hindi. Anyone nearby would notice the offensive sewer smell eminating off the heroine. As she walked past the Batcomputer, Jinx began to strip off her Batgirl attire and storm straight into the showers -- not even seeming to notice anyone else in the Batcave nor even caring if anyone else was around.

"Woh. Who's the babe?" Jack watched as Jinx stripped, making a cat call at her before the stench wafted over him.
"Oh god!" He covered his nose and pulled a small travel bottle out of his jacket, tossing it to Jinx as she reached the entrance to the showers. "Hey! Catch!" The small bottle read: 'super concentrated odor eliminator shampoo'.
He then turned, the stink of sewage too much for him. "So, are we going to find my car or not?" He asked Brigade.

"In order to locate your car, we must first have an idea of where it may be. We do not yet have such an idea," Brigade replied simply, patiently, almost as if speaking to a nagging child.

Jinx reflexively caught the 'Super Concentrated Odor Eliminator Shampoo' turning her burning gaze in Jack's direction -- then suddenly eased up a little when she realized it wasn't Nightwing, "Sorry, I owe a certain bird some pain..."
Then the draft on bare skin drew the Indian metahuman's attention, and her pink cat-like eyes widened in a sudden realization, "Oh... s**t!!!! Damn it!!"
A very pale skinned streak practically flew into the safety of the showers.

Jack had a broad smile on his face. "Wow... She's cute."
He then slowly looked at Brigade and remembered his car again. "Oh well... I don't see you coming up with any ideas. So sense it'll be the last place I look, where would be the first place you'd look?"

"The first place we would look would be the Gobi Desert, as that is what Mr. Mxyzptlk said is where your car originally was. We have already used Google Earth's satellite imagery to scan the entirety of the surface of the Gobi Desert, and have found no signs of your car in that region of the planet," Brigade said, seeming to ignore Jinx completely.

"Well I would look in the nearest swimming pool first but sense he said it would be the last place I'd look it obviously isn't there." He thought for a moment. "Unless he thought I would take it that way so that it would be the last place I'd look. But what if he thought that I would think of that too?"
Jack was thinking too hard now and held his head. This search wasn't going to be as simple as he had hoped.

Brigade cocked its head a bit, and looked up to Mxyzptlk-- who had apparently already left. It looked back to Jack, processing the human's words.
"You are asking if it is possible that Mxyzptlk is attempting to, to use a human term, 'throw you off your game'. Considering Mxyzptlk's ability to warp reality, it is not implausible for him to have placed your car within the nearest swimming pool."

//// I'm not even going to bother with the Manor. People said I'm supposed to be down here, so I'll be down here. yum_shrimp ////
Misty carefully made her way down the long set of stairs, still leaning on C.J. for support. She grunted a few times without meaning to. Going down the stairs should have been easy, but her stomach wasn't agreeing with her.

((That was my fault. My dearest apologies.))
((Enter C.J. from the Manor))
C.J. eased down the stairs, holding onto Sapph when he saw the dilemma on his hands. Which Batmobile was it he got the keys to?!? Unaware of the impending storm that was Bruce Wayne in the body of an (admittedly) good-looking woman, he was a little more concerned with finding the car.
"Tumbler? Nah, probably a push-start. Burton? Naw. Don't think so. Maybe it's the . . ." he said, pausing at the dinged-up 1989 Batmobile. Skadoosh. he thought. Dinged up? Mirror missing? That HAD to be it from the guys. "Think I found our ride. D'ya trust me enough?" he asked. Helping her over to the car and opening the doors. It looked more like a rocket-ship than any car he ever saw.
