DC Universe- 2100

Batman looks at Bat-Woman and walks over to the table.

"All right, start talking," Hush says.

"Fine...but only if he asks the first question."

"How did you manage to get your hands on the suit?"

"Figures. You're not that difficult to read, Batman. You're also not that different from me. I had my bouts with crime as well. I decided to do something about it but, unlike YOU, I didn't have the funds to afford it. So I deduced who you and the other Bats were then borrowed a few things. Simple as that."

"So instead you stole the 'funds'.", Batman says.

"You might say that. What's so 'vital' about that information? Surprised there was actually someone on the planet smart enough to piece it all together or something?"

"No. However, your timing is too perfect. For someone whose lived her whole life without anything to back her up, one could guess that you had some support to get here. Not only that, but I still wonder about your motivation."

Bat-Woman says nothing and turns to look at Hush. She then turns back to Batman and leans back in her seat. "So what are you doing about these recent upper class murders? Or the super criminal gang wars? Or maybe the three prisoners that escaped from Arkham and Blackgate not long ago?"

"What is your motivation?"

"A desire for a city that doesn't need Batman," Bat-Woman says bluntly.

Batman pauses as he looks at her. "Good. Then we're on the same page.", he says and suddenly turns to leave.

Hush leaves with Batman, Bat-Woman sitting there in thought. Outside, Angelica and Firefly both wait, having been denied entry. "You know, if that ring is as powerful as you make it sound-"

"You can't analyze it," Angelica says.

"Fine," Lorelei concedes. She then sees Batman leaving and lands with Angelica near him. "So how'd it go?"

"What's her deal? How'd she get my suit?"

"She knows who we are. I'll tell you more later. I have a couple of ideas.", Batman said in a low voice.

"Ideas? Like what," Bat-Girl says in a near whisper.

"Of where she might come from."

"All right, and one of them might be what?" Angelica says, her arms crossed.

Batman looks at her. "She looks almost exactly like you."

"Go on," Angelica says.

"Could you... possibly have a sister that I don't know of?"

"...You're kidding, right?"

"Not at all. Or a relative."

"I don't have a twin. And with my...daddy issues...it's just not likely."

"Perhaps a DNA sample would help."

"Why? She's in custody now. We don't need to know." Angelica says.

"...Angie...I think you just don't WANT to know."

"Would you? Just so you could find out if yet another part of your life is a lie?" At this, Firefly looks down, shaking her head. "I thought so. Some mysteries are better left unsolved. This is one of them...we'll just leave it alone for now," Angelica says, flying away.

Firefly watches her leave then turns to Batman. "I'm going back to the cave. I'll see you there."

"Right.", Batman says and grapples to the rooftop.
