DC Universe- 2100

Angelica suits up and tries to contact Joseph from the Bat Cave.

"I'm here." Batman said over the comm as he lept from the GCPD building using his cape to glide towards the parked Batmobile.

"Meet me at the old power plant. I'll fill you in on the details when you get there, but Derek want me to have some backup on this. We think it's...Clue."

"On my way." Batman said getting into the Batmobile and driving off.

Bat-Girl arrives on her Bat-Cycle, checking the area with her thermal scanners. "No one here," she says. "Figures."

"No pun intended but there's probably a clue inside." Batman said coming up beside her.

"Someone sent a call out from here to just about every major rich boy, philanthropist, and company exec in Gotham.  Every call suggested in one way or another that the receiver was Batman.  Naturally, our mutual friend is a tad uneasy."

(Realised a few days ago that "pun intended" in itself is a pun on "unintended". It made for an audible groan.)

"It's my job to be worried about you.", Derek says through the com. He then brings up files and pictures of Catalyst on his own monitor.

"Right, well let's go and have a look around." Batman said heading towards the power plant.

( Damn it...)

"I'll check the phones," Bat-Girl says. "You look around."

Batman was already going over the area searching for signs of Clue.

Bat-Girl checks the phones. "He rigged the phone to produce feedback. Which means he must have tampered with it."

In the office area, there is an open phone book with a number of missing pages.

Batman walked up to the phone book and looked through it taking note of which pages were gone. "Phone book in here, several pages are missing."

"Who still uses phone books?" Bat-Girl says, entering the room. "Nothing on the phones. It must've been a personal."

"Someone trying to lead us in a certain direction." Batman said.

Bat-Girl notes red markings on the edges of the pages. She closes the book and looks at it sideways. Written along the pages lengthwise is 'HAHAHA'. "So we're being mocked, now."

"Maybe.", Derek says. "Is there a significant order in which the pages have been ripped out?"

Edgar decided to head back home taking the night off from patroling.

"Everyone who was called tonight is missing. Along with a few who just happened to share pages with them," Bat-Girl says.

"He could just be wanting to confirm his suspicion, and if his goal was to draw bats out then he succeeded.", Derek says. "There must be something else, though."

Something falls in the next room over. Bat-Girl closes the book and looks to the door.

Batman moved towards the door using his HUD to scan through the door.

Bat-Girl turns on her Shock-Knuckles. On the other side is someone running out of the plant. "Batman."

Batman kicked the door open and rushed through he pulled his grapple gun out and fired it to latch onto the person and pull them back in.

The man being dragged back inside wears a black skull mask. "Oh god! Oh no oh god oh please don't do nothin' to me!"
