Version 2 for EQD: Extended Edition with Three New Scenes!
On a quiet afternoon in the land of Equestria, the Batmobile tore through Froggy Bottom Bog and slammed into the heads of the Hydra. The impact knocked each head into the bog as the vehicle sailed past the muck and burned up the vegetation in its wake. The roar of the engine alerted a multitude of monsters nearby, but the rampant destruction caused by the Batmobile filled every creature with terror at the sight of the tank-sized monstrosity. The path of chaos continued past the bog and found its way to Sweet Apple Acres as rows of apple trees crashed down upon impact. A tall tree shot towards the barn where it slammed into the window of Applejack’s room and stood hovering over the terrified pony.
“WHAT IN THE HAY IS THIS?” Applejack yelled as the sound of an engine sped off towards Ponyville.
Two puffs of smoke issued from the front exhaust ports of the Batmobile as missiles smashed two apple trees. They collapsed onto the ground and formed a ramp as the vehicle sped up and leapt over several houses. Several ponies peered up in the sky as a gang of pegasi split in an instant when the dark meteor sailed down from above and slammed into Town Hall. The landing ripped a hole in the side of the building as the crash echoed throughout Ponyville. A crowd of ponies organized around the wreckage in the moments that followed.
The Mayor of Ponyville galloped outside and stared up at the mysterious construction sticking out of the side of Town Hall. Twilight Sparkle ran through the crowd as Spike, her dragon assistant, stayed by her side. “Don’t touch it!” the purple unicorn said as Spike stopped right next to her at the front of the gathering. “Keep everypony away from the crash site!” She turned to Spike. “Take a letter! Tell Celestia there’s been an accident!” Twilight hastily relayed a message to Spike as the dragon used a quill to scribble the letter onto a parchment. He rolled up the finished note, breathed fire onto it and watched the message dissipate into air.
There was a roar of rage from the wreckage as the roof of the Batmobile jettisoned and trailed off into the air. It sailed towards the home of a mint-colored pony named Lyra. Stunned by the sight, she stood stark still as a rainbow trail streaked by and pushed her out of the way. The piece of flaming debris impacted and set fire to her house as Rainbow Dash put Lyra on the ground.
“My house!” the green pony shouted as she looked on in horror. Rainbow Dash lifted off and shot into the sky where she returned seconds later with a raincloud. She placed the cloud over the burning roof, stamped on it, and watched as water cascaded down onto the smoldering scorched hay awning.
The ponies in the crowd turned away from the fire to witness an imposing dark figure looming over the remains of the vehicle now jutting from the roof of Town Hall. There was no wind, but the cape of the stranger billowed ominously behind him. His black Kevlar bodysuit appeared to absorb the light and created an aura of darkness around him. The gauntlets on his arms were edged in blades. A cowl concealed the face and left visible the eyes and mouth. Eyes which now stared unblinking at the pony crowd in front.
“Who are you?” Twilight Sparkle asked.
“I’m Batman.”
The dark, very deep, very low grizzly voice took everypony by surprise. They all took a step back as the stranger stepped forward and stood several feet taller than all of them. “You’re all in terrible danger,” he said. “Last night, the Joker escaped Arkham Asylum and made his way here. If we don’t find him fast, he’ll launch a nerve gas which will cover all of Gotham City in poison, killing everyone.”
“Who’s the Joker?” Dash asked.
“Where’s Gotham City?” Twilight Sparkle asked.
“My house is still on fire!” Lyra shouted as a tiny flame re-ignited on the roof of her house and swelled into a raging blaze. Batman pulled out his grapple gun, launched it at the roof, wrapped the cable around the bulk of hay and retracted the burning mass back towards him at a frightening speed. With one swift move, he laid waste to the fire with a single punch of fury.
“WHAT?” Rainbow Dash asked as the tiny cinders fizzled out. “HOW? WHA…Nopony can punch out a fire!”
“I’m Batman.”
“I know who you are! But that was impossible!”
“Hold on, Rainbow Dash. Let him speak,” Twilight Sparkle said. “Could you explain why you think this Joker is in Ponyville?”
“The Joker is a master of deception. He can disguise himself with incredible skill. He’s hiding somewhere amongst this crowd.”
The ponies looked around and began to talk in worried tones. Dash shook her head. “Hold on. Wait a minute. Is this Joker just like you?”
“HE’S NOTHING LIKE ME!”
“Whoa, whoa. I mean tall like you. And not a pony.”
“He could be anything.”
“What is he? A changeling?” Dash asked. “It’s impossible that a ‘not-pony’ as big as you could hide in this crowd.”
A voice shouted in anger from the back of the crowd. “What in the hay happened to all muh apple trees?” An orange pony by the name of Applejack stomped to the front of the crowd as her brother Big Mac, lil’ sister Apple Bloom and grandmother Granny Smith trailed angrily behind her. Applejack threw her cowboy hat down onto the ground in front of her as she opened her mouth to speak, only to stare wide-eyed at the visage of the masked crime fighter standing before her. “What in tarnation is this?”
“I’m Batman.”
“We. KNOW!” Dash said in frustration.
Applejack eyed the dark knight. “Mind telling me why one of muh apple trees almost crushed me in muh sleep?”
A vicious cry erupted from the edge of town as a towering four-headed beast charged into Ponyville. Each head of the Hydra looked furious thanks to the throbbing welts left by the impact of the Batmobile. They shot their glances down at Batman and roared in vengeance at the dark knight as he gazed unblinking at their monstrous forms.
“Everypony RUN!” Twilight yelled as the Hydra made it to the edge of town square. The ponies scattered as the lumbering creature moved to strike Batman with one of its mouths. In a flash of movement, he pointed his grappling hook at the first head, fired the line and watched as the hook embedded itself in the mouth of the creature. Its eyes went wide with shock as Batman sailed up into its mouth and disappeared for a second. The other three heads watched in horror as spasms of pain shot through the first one. Its eyes rolled into the back of its head as the mouth opened There, within the maw, stood Batman with batarangs in one hand and grapple in the other. He kept his aim at the next nearest mouth. The two closest heads shook and cowered as the last one fainted and collapsed into the bedroom of Lyra’s house.
“OH MY GOSH! WHY, BATMAN, WHY?” Lyra yelled as the tongue of the fallen hydra lolled out onto the ground in front of her.
Batman holstered his weapons as he jumped out of the mouth. He unfurled his cape as he sailed to the ground without a single noise. Batman landed next to Twilight as the incapacitated hydra head dropped onto the ground next to her. She leapt in surprise as it and the other fallen head were dragged off by the terrified creature which now retreated back towards Froggy Bottom Bog.
All the ponies turned to stare at Batman, but he was now gone.

Rarity and Pinkie Pie hugged Fluttershy as she cowered on a couch in Rarity’s boutique. “I don’t wanna go out there! It sounded like a monster is nearby!” Fluttershy said as she shivered and covered herself with her yellow pegasi wings.
“My dear, if you keep shivering here none of us will be able to go outside and check,” Rarity, the white unicorn, said. “How can I leave you when you almost fainted only a moment ago? Fluttershy, sometimes I worry about you.”
“Oh Fluttershy,” Pinkie Pie said as she hugged her friend close. “Does Auntie Pie need to sing you a song?”
“We’re not related…”
“…cause I know the perfect one!” The pink pony leapt off the couch and started singing “Giggle at the Ghosties:”
When I was a little filly and the sun was going downnnnnnn
“Umm…it’s okay, Pinkie,” Fluttershy said. But Pinkie continued.
The darkness and the shadows they would always make me frownnnn
“Let her sing, sweetheart,” Rarity said. “Maybe it’ll make you feel better.”
I’d hide under my pillow, from what I thought I’d saw
But Granny Pie said that wasn’t the way to deal with fears at all.
Fluttershy and Rarity started to smile as Pinkie moved to hug them both.
She said “Pinkie, you gotta stand up tall. Learn to face your fears.
You’ll see that they can’t hurt you. Just laugh to make them disappear!”
Ha! Ha! …ARGH!
Pinkie froze with an expression of shock as Batman stood next to her, his eyes searing with a rage the likes of which nopony had seen since Nightmare Moon.
“JOKER!” he yelled as Fluttershy squeaked in fear. Rarity’s mouth hung wide open.
“Who?” Pinkie asked.
“WHERE’S THE LAUGHING GAS!” Batman asked. The intensity of his voice caused Pinkie to shrink to the floor. After a moment of giggling, she stood up and started laughing.
“Oh, silly! I don’t use laughing gas! I’m naturally happy! It’s all thanks to my friends,” she said as she turned to look at Rarity and Fluttershy. She yelped in surprise at the sight of Batman now standing behind her. She glanced quickly back and forth around the room, but there was only one Bat. “Did you girls see how he did that?”
“Yes,” Rarity said, “But I’m too terrified to describe it!”
“Eep!” Fluttershy added.
“TELLMEWHATIWANNAKNOW!” Batman yelled incomprehensibly.
“What?” Pinkie asked.
“WHEREISITJOKER? WHERESTHELAUGHINGGAS?” he continued.
“I don’t understand you.”
“ARGH!” he grabbed the pink pony by the shoulders as she froze.
“Start giggling!” Fluttershy yelled.
“He’s not a ghost, Fluttershy!” Pinkie yelled. She pointed out the window. “Look over there!”
“I’m not falling for it, Joker.”
Fluttershy and Rarity turned and pointed out the window. It was Rarity who spoke. “How did Pinkie do that?”
Batman turned and saw Pinkie Pie outside the window as she galloped towards the outskirts of Ponyville. He looked back at his grasp and noticed she was gone. He turned to the two ponies still in the room. “Looks like the Joker and I were trained by the same ninjas. Stay here.”
“What are you going to do?” Rarity asked. Batman jumped out the window and flew off.
“Is he a pegasus?” Fluttershy asked.
“No. I think he’s just crazy,” Rarity responded.

Pinkie Pie sat in the sleeping compartment of the Friendship Express as it took off towards Canterlot. She sighed as the train attendant offered her snacks from the food cart. “Never seen anypony board the train so fast before!” he said. “You in some kind of trouble?”
“Just some crazy Bat-guy trying to catch me. That’s all. Thanks for the food!” She paid her two bits as the train attendant’s expression shifted into confusion. She closed the door and enjoyed her donut as she heard a strange sound rising in volume outside. She opened the blinds to the window and peeked out. She gasped and the donut in her hoof fell to the floor.
“JOKERRRRRRRRR!” A violent yell erupted from the intercom system within the train as the Batmobile sped up in its pursuit of the Friendship Express.
“He’s talking through the train intercom? How is he doing that?” Pinkie asked.
“You can’t escape JUSTICE, Joker!” The voice roared as the Batmobile fired a tether and clamped onto the rear of the train. Pinkie Pie ran out of her compartment and into the passenger car. She slammed the door behind her and shut down the lock.
“He’ll never catch me!” she said as she ran forward and looked for anypony who could help her.
At that moment, a resounding crash exploded from the rear-facing door as the train attendant scrambled to his hooves and screamed in terror at the Batman behind him. Pinkie’s eyes widened in fear. “You didn’t have to throw him through the glass like that!”
Seconds later, the attendant leapt through the window of the door into the next car as Pinkie watched the panicked pony push itself through every barrier in its way. The ponies in the other cars ran away from the combat behind them. “Oh,” Pinkie said. “Guess it wasn’t you.”
“It ends here, Joker!” Batman yelled as he flicked his batarangs into his hands.
“I’m NOT a joker! Well, maybe I am, but…”
“I knew it!” Batman said as he launched three batarangs at the pink pony. She screamed in terror as two of the curved edges sliced her hair and tail puffs. The severed edges fell to the floor as she ducked and avoided the third batarang altogether. The three blades stuck into the wall behind Pinkie as she stared in growing anger at the crime fighter standing before her.
“That’s it! Nopony cuts my hair and gets away with it!” She reached behind herself and pulled out a party cannon of immense proportions. She pointed it at the dark knight and smiled. “Party time!” The blast filled the interior of the car as Batman fell backwards through the opening into the sleeping quarters. The echo of the cannon shot bounced off the walls and shattered the windows as Pinkie Pie stood staring in shock at the destruction around her. “Oops,” she said.
There was a staggering quake through the train as Pinkie saw the interior of the sleeping quarters pull away from the broken rear-facing door. The car fell back and disappeared in the distance as the rev of an engine could be heard. There was a massive blast as the Batmobile crashed through the back wall of the Friendship Express and sat pointed in the direction of Pinkie Pie. The wheels began to spin and dig into the floor as Pinkie’s mouth dropped. She turned and ran.
The Batmobile shot forward and knocked the passenger seats out the growing tears in the sides of the car. The roof collapsed upon Pinkie’s pursuer as the remains of the railcar broke apart onto the tracks behind it. The Batmobile rocketed through the next dividing walls between the compartments and sent them hurtling down onto the tracks as the previous railcar disconnected, flipped over and came crashing to a halt on the railway. Then, it exploded.
“AHHH!” Pinkie screeched as she leapt into the dining car. Several ponies frantically fought to make their way to the engine room as the Batmobile revved up for another push. Pinkie looked at the connecting section between the trains, took out a wrench and yelled “I know what to do!”
The train attendant stood behind her and said. “Are you sure you know how to disconnect it?”
“Yes!” Pinkie yelled. She began to scream as she slammed the wrench onto the lock over and over again. “Break off already!”
The train attendant stared. “GIVE THAT TO ME!” He used the wrench with efficient speed. The Batmobile shot forward as the car disconnected. The landing broke apart beneath it and shifted in weight as it flipped over. The vehicle careened to the side and sped off the rails and into the forest.
“Hah!” The attendant said triumphantly. “Speed and courage paid off.”
A grappling hook shot out from the treeline and locked itself around the waist of the pony as he looked down in surprise. “What the?” The flying form of Batman shot out of the brush with a bellow of fury. The Bat impacted the attendant and stood atop the unconscious pony as Batman stared down at Pinkie Pie. She cowered back into the last passenger car where the vast majority of ponies stood shaking in fear.
“Now we end this,” Batman growled.
A burst of movement came out of the crowd as Lyra tackled Batman off the edge of the now-last compartment. They hovered in air for a moment thanks to Batman’s cape as the Batmobile rushed up beneath them and caught both combatants. They fought each other with a flurry of kicks and punches as Lyra shouted “This is for MY HOUSE!”
Pinkie Pie and the other ponies spotted Canterlot coming up quickly in the distance. They were less than a minute away from docking at the train station. The Batmobile veered off the path and headed straight for the waterfalls located beneath the castle city. “Lyra!” Pinkie screamed as the pony and Batman disappeared off the edge of the falls. “Oh no!” The ponies in the crowd said. They waited. The surface of the water erupted as the Batmobile went vertical up the side of the mountain and ripped apart the rock with the treads of its tires. Pinkie and the other ponies watched with mouths open as the Batmobile ignited its jet booster to dangerous levels while Lyra and Batman fought atop the open cockpit. At the top of the castle was the small form of a tall winged white pony.
“Princess Celestia!” Pinkie Pie said as the Batmobile zoomed up the edge of the castle. The princess looked down at the incoming chaos headed her way. She only had enough time to gawk in shock before the Batmobile reached her tower and exploded. The detonation ripped apart the tower and caused it to fall straight down into the raging river below.
“CELESTIAAAAAA!” Pinkie Pie yelled.
Out of the smoke flew the Princess as she dove towards the Friendship Express. The expressions of the ponies moved quickly through elation, confusion and fear when they saw the caped crusader riding the white mare. Lyra swung from a cable tied to Celestia as the green pony fought desperately to free herself. The Princess yelled in utter panic. “I have absolutely no idea what’s going on!”
“Why don’t you just push him off?” Lyra screamed.
“Are you kidding me? Do you know who this is?” Celestia yelled.
“I’m Batman.”
“That’s who this is!” she continued.
“Ahhhh!” Pinkie yelled. She embraced a nearby pony. “Pinkie-Pie-Swear you won’t let him catch me!”
“SWEAR TO ME!” Batman yelled as Celestia turned in mid-air and pushed downward into a hard dive.
“Why are you chasing them?” Celestia asked her rider.
“That pink pony is the Joker in disguise!” Batman answered.
“No she isn’t! That’s Pinkie Pie. She’s one of Twilight Sparkle’s friends!” Batman glanced at the fleeing train, then at Celestia, then at the train, then at the castle tower sinking in the water, then at Celestia, then at Pinkie Pie who was shivering amidst the crowd of ponies. Celestia continued. “You figure it out yet, detective?”
“Prove it,” he said.
The train began to slow once it neared Canterlot station as the Princess hovered over it with Batman on her back. They landed on the Friendship Express as everypony shrunk away from Batman. Celestia picked up Pinkie Pie and held her up to face the dark knight. “Look at that face,”Celestia said. “Tell me that isn’t Pinkie Pie.”
Pinkie shrunk away as Batman pulled out a scanner and placed it over her face. He saw an x-ray of Pinkie’s skull. “I see,” the caped crusader said.
“Why didn’t you just do that in the first place?” Pinkie Pie asked.
“When an enemy shoots me in the face with a cannon, I don’t stop to ask questions.”
“Oh,” Pinkie replied. “Sorry. I guess this all could’ve been avoided.”
“Pardon me, Princess,” Batman said.
“Excuse me?” Princess Celestia said. “You leveled most of Sweet Apple Acres. Then you destroyed Ponyville Town Hall.”
“And my house!” Lyra said as she swung lazily beneath the now-hovering Princess.
“That too. And then you destroyed most of the Froggy Bottom Bog, obliterated virtually all of the Friendship Express, carved into the supporting rockface of the castle cliff and broke apart most of my tower before collapsing my BEDROOM into the water! You know how many years of memories were in there?”
“No.”
“THOUSANDS.”
“Oh.”
“I should send you to the moon right now. But I’m afraid if I did, you would somehow collapse it into the Earth and shove this planetary body off orbit where it would smash into each neighboring planet until the solar system collapsed into a giant Bat-mess.“
“I never said I would do that.”
“You didn’t say you wouldn’t do it either.”
“Touché, Princess. But I did solve your hydra problem. It will never bother the citizens of Ponyville ever again.”
The Princess nodded. “You know what? You’re right. In fact, now that you mention it, I think I can come up with a very effective way to make sure you get your thirst for justice satiated while my kingdom remains protected. Help me out and I’ll assist you in your search for this Joker character.”
Batman nodded. “What do you have in mind, Princess?"

The clacking of insectoid wings filled the hive of Queen Chrysalis as she cackled on the throne built from shedded carapaces of her former selves. The colossal interior of the honeycomb hive held no less than several hundred changelings all hailing to their monarch sitting atop her throne. Not one ray of sunlight shone in the darkness illuminated by glowing green crystals and lanterns alit with captured fireflies. Creeping ichor covered the bottom floor and seeped into every crevice as it permeated the room with a foul stench nopony could smell without gagging. The mantis-like black body of Chrysalis flittered its wings as her large, slit pupils scorched their way into the minds of her subjects and their collective thoughts.
“Great citizens of the Hive! Hear me now and tremble with fear and awe at the sight of your Queen!” The reverberations of her double-layered voice caused her subjects to chitter even more fervently. “Though we were once defeated at the steps of Canterlot, I assure you we will return! We shall find our way back to the kingdom of the so-called Princess Celestia and show her the true meaning of fear! We shall feast upon their emotion and drink their hope with every breath they take!” The two tallest guards moved closer to her and held their organic spears at the ready as she flew up and hovered. “They shall never know who amongst them is friend or foe, for we shall steal their faces and take their hearts right out from under them! Nopony can defeat a changeling! Night will fall upon Equestria and it will be filled with the screams of ten thousand slaves under our will! Venegance will be ours!” She said as she landed in front of her two guards. She turned and noticed one of her guards had a look of incomprehensible fear upon its face. The organic spear of the other guard slammed into its head and knocked it to the ground as the crowd of changelings gasped and grew silent. There was a bladed edge pointed against the throat of the Queen as her eyes grew wide with disbelief. The guard still-standing raised one claw to its face and dropped it to the floor. Batman stood staring at Queen Chrysalis and her heart forgot to beat. “How did you get past my guards?”
“I removed the exoskeletons of five of your minions and made my own.”
The eyes of Queen Chrysalis widened. “You aren’t supposed to be able to remove them!”
“They’ll live.”
“You fool! I’ve heard of your deeds in Equestria and I know your name! And now you’ve cornered yourself amidst ALL my minions with no hope of survival!” There was a parting in the crowd as a massive muscular changeling flew up to the throne and stopped in front of Batman. Its searing red eyes beheld no emotion or fear. “My Changeling Champion will teach you some respect!” Its face contorted in a flash of green into that of Batman. It smiled a vicious grin. The real Batman, however, did not.
“Meet your demise, Batman,” Chrysalis said as a razor-smile filled her visage. Batman noticed that Chrysalis had holes burrowed through the bottoms of her hooves. She raised her hoof to her mouth as she began to laugh maniacally. He threw the spear down through the carapace openings and planted it into the ground at her feet. She was locked in the pose. “What the?”
The Champion threw a punch and hit Batman square across the chin. His head arched back and the changelings chittered in delight. Their voices stopped when Batman slowly tilted his head back and stared at the cheap imitation of his face. The Champion’s expression was frozen in bewilderment.
Two seconds later, Batman’s fists met the sides of the changelings face as he pummeled the creature into oblivion. Each hit broke the image down until it transformed back into its former self, now cowering with each strike. The smaller changelings backed away and shuddered at each impact of the dark knight’s carapace gauntlets until the Champion held up its quivering arms in surrender.
“I’m sorry,” it squeaked.
“Who are you?” the dark knight asked.
“Not Batman.”
Queen Chrysalis turned to her subjects with desperate eyes. “What’s wrong with all of you? Quickly! Assume his form and annihilate him!”
Several voices cried out from the crowd. “Forget that! You’re crazy! YOU change into him!”
Batman turned to Queen Chrysalis and grabbed the pole stuck through her legs as he placed it over his back as one would carry two pails of water. “AH! Where are you taking me? I shall use my magic to defeat you!”
“I don’t need magic to remove an exoskeleton,” Batman said.
Chrysalis froze.
He kicked open a door to a balcony as sunlight streamed in. A platoon of pegasi came around in the sky with a large glider. Batman turned to the encroaching horde of changelings as he witnessed the barely contained rage in their eyes. He pulled a gun from his utility belt and fired off a balloon into the air behind him as a tether trailed back to his weapon. It blinked red as a squadron of pegasi led by the Wonderbolts raced to meet it.
One changeling stepped forward. “You think you can just walk away with our Queen? We’ll find you and destroy you!”
The sound of an engine revved up as the Batmobile rode down the side of the hive and knocked the offending changeling off the balcony.
“Is that thing alive?” Chrysalis asked as she looked at the vehicle. “That’s insane!” She growled in anger. “You’ll never defeat my hordes!” She turned in the distance and saw a line of unicorns and earth ponies form over every edge of the horizon. Squadrons of pegasi erupted from the cloud cover led by Princess Celestia and her sister Princess Luna while the Captain of the Royal Guard, Shining Armor, stood in front of the ground forces with his wife Princess Cadance by his side. “Oh no,” Chrysalis said.
A troop of pegasi used the glider in the air to catch the balloon tether. They pulled Batman and Chrysalis away as the Batmobile raced into the hive and began causing havoc amongst their number. In the distance, the platoons of pony began their onward march towards the last bastion of the changelings.

I love how you show just how utterly psychotic Batman is. It's even funnier when it's against a backdrop of pretty pastel ponies.

WOO
What happened with the "batman and scootaloo" scene?
It was epic.
930477
Yeah, it's fun to make him go EXTREME in these stories. It just works with Batman.
931289
931677
This is what happened!
th01.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/f/2012/200/7/f/queen_chrysalis_by_applesarcum-d57slcb.png
But naw, seriously. I had to remove that scene to make room for Batman vs. Chrysalis. I really really liked the Scootaloo ending, but it didn't fit with the longer version. (sorry, Scootaloo!)
931954
Thanks for looking it over! Tonight I shall submit it to EQD and we'll see if they accept it and post it before the Dark Knight Rises starts tomorrow.
Listening to this with "I'm no Hero"...
It was epic. That's all I gotta say. Nicely done.
1033984
You're reading Justice.
2256411
Everything you have said about bat promises is correct. Batman would applaud you, except when he applauds it's done with a criminal's smashed between his hands.
But he didn't kill him. Just so we're clear on that. Bat's gotta have rules.
3435644
Thanks for reading! I had a lot of fun with this story. Batman is so perfect for crazy storytelling.
I'd like to do a stage version of this later. That would be awesome! Batman just appearing in Scootaloo's bed and scaring the bumpkins outta her.
Well, this was epicness itself. The new ending kicked ass. Too bad that Joker and Scotaloo did not appear this time. Good luck to you in the future!
3443937
Thanks for the read of the second version! I tried something new there cause I was trying to get it into Equestria Daily. It was a fun exercise. : D
Thanks for your well-wishes.
I like this chapter better, but I also liked the batman song.
4684521
Ah, it's true that both chapters have their merits. I do miss the Batman song.... : ) Thanks for reading and commenting!
7355331
HAHA thank you! I'm glad you like them! I really hit my stride with comedy back in the day. :)
This was even more hilarious than the first time around.
7618326
Heck yeah! Thank you! :D I remember how fun this story was. Batman is the best.
7618336
Hooray! Thank you! I'm glad the extended edition worked out well :D
