"Inside and Outside."
Nightfall.
A female newsreporter is heard on the tv. "People have been going rampage with this weird virus that has been spreading through saliva and blood." A scene comes up with a burning car and a body next to it. A tv-screen comes up with the female newsreporter Vicki Vale. "The hospitals are quarantined until further notice.." A new scene comes up with people running down an alley, they breathing loud and fast. The tv-screen comes up again with images of people fighting each other, the other trying to bite the other one. "The police has warned the uninfected people to stay home and board the windows and hide, until the police has taken care of the situation and...exterminate the threats."
A chopper was flying high in the sky and looking down on the city that was burning and smoking, people screaming for help everywhere, and the police shooting rounds from a distant. A white car was driving along the small highway, in it was Diana and Brendan. "Where are we going?" asked Brendan. "To Shadowcrest, it's not safe where we live anymore, we have to go somewhere safe, and since this whole deal is a part of me, Batman, and Zatanna, then that's the only safe house we can go to.." Diana said and looked out the window. "Okay, is it up here?" He said and turned left. "Yes, and then right, and then straight forward until you see the house." Diana said, she knew where Zatanna lived since she told her the coordinates before when they were going to see her and stay with her until it was more safe in the city. "I really wonder how Batman is handling all of this." Diana said to herself and rubbed her stomach.
Batman was gliding across the city and seeing people running away from the infected ones, he landed as the infected people jumped at him and tried to attack him, but Batman was too quick as he threw batarangs, fists and kicks into their face and stomach. "Stay inside people, it's not safe out here!" he told the people that looked scared at him and the whole situation, Batman took his batclaw and shot up to the sky, Zatanna then contacted him. "Batman, come to Shadowcrest, Diana and her boyfriend is soon here, and I have important information to tell you when you get here, please hurry." with that, Batman turned the direction and called for the Bat-Wing to pick him up.
Brendan parked the car up next to the mansion as Diana got out, she looked around. "She got style, I'll give her that." Zatanna's front lawn was medium big with green grass, a big statue of a man wearing a tophat, and some bushes and flowers around it. Diana and Brendan got up to the front door and knocked on the wooden door, Zatanna opened and smiled a bit. "Hey, it's good that you are here, come on in, was the trip safe?" she asked and closed and locked the door. "Yeah, just barely." Diana said as Brendan looked around. "This is Brendan by the way, and Brendan this is.." Diana got caught short by Brendan. "Zatanna, I've been to her show, she got some magic skills." Brendan smiled a bit and shook her hand, Diana got alittle annoyed by that and smiled. "Yeah..So, is Batman here?" "Yes, he's in the living room, we discovered some new information about this whole...hell doom going on." Zatanna said and walked to the living room with Diana and Brendan. Batman was standing infront of the fireplace and was reading a scroll, he then turned slowly around as he saw Diana and Brendan. "Hi there.." Diana said. "Tell me, what have you found?" "Well, the scrolls are ancient, But what I can gather most from it is that the same situation happened thousand years ago, in another world called Derectia." Zatanna said. "Oh really? Tell me." Diana said and sat down with Brendan. "In a peaceful world called Derectia, it was ruled by man and woman, no kings, no mayors, nothing, but the land wasn't peaceful for long, a rain of fire came down, and the sun turned black, some people in Derectia got infected with some strange virus that was being easily transferred through blood and saliva, but one night a visionary came to town to tell them about gods and goddesses, he told them that a higher being was gonna rise, and help them out with their situation. once the higher being awoke, it rised up in the temple and welcome the people, It promised them a larger land, tastier food, and a land where no harm would come to them, until one night when the higher being was... 'eating' the visionary saw this and it terrified him, and...that's all I got from the text." Zatanna said and took a sip from her tea.
"What's so terrible of eating?" Brendan asked. "It was eating the people of derelict to keep it's human body given from the people." Zatanna said. "What happened to the visionary, did it eat him?" Diana asked. "I don't know, but what I do know is that this higher being has a real name, all higher being has a former real name before they become a higher being, and saying it is a forbidden law for It, it would tear it apart, not literally, but the power of it would disappear." Zatanna said. "I am gonna read more into this, if you need me, I will be upstairs." Zatanna said as the scrolls began to levitate and following her upstairs.
Diana got up. "I am getting chills.." "We are not sure if it will happen." Batman said and looked at Diana and then at her pregnant stomach. "How long have you been pregnant?" he asked. "Oh..I don't know, do you remember Brendan?..Maybe like..5 months." Diana smiled a bit and shrugged. "5 months, that is quite quick for a baby to grow, don't you think so?" "Maybe mine is a miracle baby then." Diana said and got alittle annoyed with his doubts. "I think I am gonna go and look around, just to keep sure that the doors are locked so we don't get any...intruders." Brendan excused himself, getting up from the sofa and walked into another room, now there was just Batman and Diana, Diana got up. "I don't feel safe here." "Why not?" Batman said. "I don't know, when you are pregnant you don't feel so safe anymore, even if I heal and can take a beating.." she looks down as Batman got up to her and looked down on her. "Don't worry, it's going to be okay, you are safe here." Batman said a bit quietly. Diana blushed lightly and pulled away. "Yeah, I know..uh, I am gonna check up on Zatanna on what's she's doing." Diana got upstairs and looked down the corridor, so many doors. "Zatanna, where are you?.." Diana said as she saw a door not fully closed, she got in and saw Zatanna trying to piece couple of papers together. "What are you doing?" Diana said as Zatanna had her back free and was lighting down UV light on the piece of papers. "I found some kind of a name or something atleast when it's exposed in ultraviolet." Zatanna said as Diana crept closer to her. "I think it's the name of the Beast's owner, you know, that demon we fought before?" Zatanna said and turned the papers from left to right, Diana got up a knife and raised it up and was about to stab her. "Name is...F...R..No wait, that's not the name, that is scratches, I didn't see it because it was on the other side of the paper, crap, oh well." Zatanna sighed as Diana lowered the knife, putting it away under head long dark skirt and attaching it to her knife holder. "I know!.." Zatanna said and got another idea, she left the room as Diana followed and got into the living room where Batman and Brendan was in. "Batman, I think I know what to do, if I need to know the answers, I will have to chant about it and ask my guide about it, will you be okay with..Diana?" Zatanna said as Diana sighed. "I am not a baby, and what kind of answers do you need to know about?" "Who'se behind it all, and what it want, but I need to be alone tho, probably in a lonely factory, probably the one where the demon died." Zatanna nodded. "I know it's the right place." Zatanna said as Batman nodded. "Very well." he said as Zatanna started to head for the door, but Diana stopped her. "Wait a minute, what about the infected people? It's not safe out there.." she had a worrying voice. "I'll be fine, don't worry, I'll lock the place up." Zatanna smiled and got out, Diana looked down and sighed, she then got into the living room together with Batman and Brendan. "So, what do we do now?.." "We wait for answers." Batman said. "How about the innocents you are trying to protect?" Diana raised an eyebrow. "Batwoman and Nightwing is taking care of that, and also Red Hood." "Oh, I remember now, even the villains such as Killer Croc and The Penguin is defending the city, how heroic." Diana said and shook her head. "How are you doing by the way Batman?..you look a bit more pale than usual." "Alfred got in trouble with Hush." "Really?..what happened?" Diana said. "He..tried to remove his heart, but I stopped him before he could get it out..or get deep enough." "Do you think he's infected?" Diana said, Batman shook his head. "No, he just seemed his regular lunatic-self." "I am sorry about this, he will survive, he's a tough man, we all will survive, me and my sweet baby, my sweet." she said and rubbed her stomach as the cellphone in Brendan's pocket began to call. "I wonder who this is..Oh, It's Lisa!.." Brendan said as Diana got up and took the phone away from Brendan's hand. "Something is wrong, Hello?...Yes lisa, It's me, no I left the phone home..Where are you?..Please, stop crying, just tell me where you are?" Diana said worried as she nodded. "Okay, I'll come and pick you up, wait there and hide, okay?" Diana hung up. "It's Lisa, she's here in Gotham, she's being chased, I don't want her to get infected, let's go." she said and headed for the door with Batman and Brendan following. "I am coming with." Batman said. "No, you are not, go and save your innocent, I will save my best friend, I need to save someone, also, I will drive this time." Diana said and unlocked the car, it made a beeping noise because of that, also another sound that sounded like a thump and a small whimpering. "What was that?" Batman said and looked at Diana. "Oh, it's just the car, it makes all kind of weird noises, I think it's the pipes or something." Brendan said as Diana nodded. "Come on, we can't wait." She said and got into the car, Brendan got into the passage seat as they both drove off.
As they were taking the small highway back, they saw an ambulance crash into another car and they both crashed into a gasstation that exploded, Diana kept looking forward as Brendan held his mouth. "My god." he said. They both parked up to the alley next to the old factory where Diana has been once before, the factory where the Beast died. "Stay in the car, and stay low, I don't want any of the infected people to see you, okay?" Diana said as Brendan nodded. "I really wanna help you.." "I can't risk you getting infected, just do as you are told, please.." Diana said as she got out and locked the car up, she looked around, the air was filled with smoke and fire throughout the city as she walked up to the factory, she then tried to open the main doors, but they wouldn't open. "Oh right, locked." She then jumped up to a ladder that was hanging from a small balcony outside and climbed up and sneaked in through a open window, she then saw a woman standing in a long black cloak, chanting words, Diana smiled a bit and slowly walked across the upper balcony and then going down the metallic stairs with her black high heels, she could her the doors bang, probably because of the infected people. She sneaked up behind her slowly and got out the knife as she grinned. a light bolt got shot up in the air, making the whole place lit up as Diana looked up and gasped a bit, she gasped even more as she saw Batman standing infront of her, looking angrily at her, Zatanna turned around and was aiming her hand at her, Batwoman and Nightwing was standing behind Diana, ready with batarangs and tranqualizer gun. "All this time, and it was you, wasn't it?" Batman said. "Took you long enough to figure it out, but nice turn with the Zatanna bait, You know, there was a time I would have seen that one coming eons before it ever crossed your tiny little mind." Diana smirked. "Because you so clever." Batman said slightly sarcastic. "On a scale of you to me? Pretty damn." "Until now." "All good things, So what finally tipped off the great detective?" Diana asked curiously. "Alot of things, that pregnant 'baby' you have, Zatanna's scrolls, the fake phone call about Lisa, and words like...My Sweet." Batman said. "That's it?" Diana raised an eyebrow. "I get away with bringing the world down around you and two words tingle your spider sense?" "What we already knew, about the fire rain, the black sun, etc, all the circumstantial led to you." Zatanna said as the doors were banging harder and faster with the raging infected outside. "A little late to the table." Diana smirked. "But I might have a few scraps left." "So this thing is not Diana?" Batwoman asked. "This thing isn't Diana." Batman said and walked up close to her. "Is that what you think hero?" Diana grinned. "She wouldn't act like this, not now." "Maybe you don't know her very well." Diana said. "I don't wanna know her." Batman said as Diana tried to attack him with her knife, Batman pulled her arm down hard and grabbed a hold of her neck. "Where's Diana?!" he yelled out as the doors crashed down, the infected people kept rushing in from all kinds of direction and tried to attack Batman and the others, but not Diana. "Have fun." Diana smiled and walked away as the amount of infected rushed Batman over, he tried to fight them off, but got cornered, Diana ran back to the car with Brendan and got in. "Let's go!.." she said as she drove off in high speed, leaving the scene. "How did it go?..Did you save Lisa?" "Yes, I did, and I do believe she might be infected." Diana said and slightly smirked, in the trunk was Lisa laying slightly unconscious.
To be continued.
