A couple of minutes later....
The 5 hostages were now safe at the hands of the police and some of the Joker's crew are now in police custody. The Vampire-human family were relived that Dracula was alright, mostly Mavis.

"Daddy!" Mavis cried out running towards to Dracula giving him the biggest hug.

"Mavis! Why did you come back here? I told you guys to head back to the hotel." Dracula complied a little disappointed at Mavis for not listening to him.

"I know but I was worried that something bad might happen to you. Just like what almost happened to you earlier." Mavis said letting a small tear come out from her eyes. Dracula dropped his jaw realizing that he made Mavis worried about him.

"Oh Mavis. I'm terribly sorry. I didn't mean to worry you like that. I'm alright now." Dracula reassured hugging Mavis back which then reminded her of something else.

"JOHNNY! Holy Rabies! We couldn't find Johnny anywhere...." Mavis screamed panicking but was cut off when Batman/Johnny joined them.

"Calm down. Johnny's fine. I saw him earlier calling for help but I told him to get to safety. He should be here by now." Batman/Johnny answered with his voice modulator/changer.

Mavis wasn't sure how to react from what Batman/Johnny told her but somehow this calmed her down a little. On the other hand, Mavis was amazed seeing Batman/Johnny for the first time in person. Especially after saving Dracula's life.

Both Dracula and Mavis can perfectly view the exact details of Batman/Johnny's costume from top to bottom; his black leather cowl with pointy ears and white eye lens, his black cape with collar similar to Dracula's, his gray shoulder pads and gray chest armor with a black metallic bat symbol on it and his gray midsection armor, his black gauntlets with three triangle-shaped blades on the sides and black motorcycle gloves, his black utility belt containing his gadgets, his gray tactical-military esque pants with a leg hostler carrying his grappling gun, his gray bat-shaped knee pads, and lastly his black boots.

They thought it was clever of him to design this unique Batsuit to intimidate the criminals lurking behind the shadows.

"You're the Batman. You saved my father's life from that evil clown. Thank you." Mavis said smiling very thankful for Batman/Johnny's heroic act.

"Yes, you did. I wouldn't be here with my family if it wasn't for you. Thank you." Dracula said putting his arm around his daughter's shoulder pulling Mavis closer to him.

"The pleasure is all mine, sir. I also thank you for helping me stop these maniacs and rescuing the other hostages." Batman/Johnny said.

"Well the pleasure is also mine as well. You can call me Dracula or Drac if you want to." Dracula said with a friendly smile accepting Batman/Johnny as a friend.

"If you insist, Dracula." Batman/Johnny nodded appreciating their support. He turns around and saw Hank, Pedro, and Wendy were looking at him with those big grins on their faces and making squealing noises in excitement. Batman/Johnny knew that they were huge fans of him so he acted like he didn't know them and to be friendly with them. "Who are you guys supposed to be."

"Oh. They're just my friends. This is Hank, Pedro, and Wendy." Mavis went to her friends introducing them to Batman/Johnny.

"It's really awesome to finally meet you, Sir. Batman! Or is it just... Batman?" Hank spoke up while extending his arm for a hand shake.

"Nice to meet you all." Batman/Johnny gave them each a hand shake. Hank, Pedro, and Wendy couldn't help it but released a few giggles that Batman/Johnny shakes their hands.

"Hey, Batman. Is it okay if I could keep this?" Pedro asked timidly while showing the batarang he got while Batman/Johnny, Mavis, Hank and Wendy were surprised at the dangerous material he was holding.

"Pedro, where'd you get that?" Mavis asked nervously.

"I found it just lying around the floor. Pretty cool!" Pedro answered while holding the batarang with his two hands.

"Oooh. So shiny! Could we have one too?" Wendy asked excitedly.

"I'm afraid I have to say no and I needed back." Batman/Johnny said in disapproval which made Hank, Pedro, and Wendy sad.

"Aww, please. It's just one." Pedro said with an innocent smile hoping the vigilante could say yes. Batman/Johnny just crossed his arms and glared at Pedro.

"You don't understand, Pedro. A Batarang is NOT a toy. It's a dangerous weapon. You could hurt somebody with it. I suggest you hand it back to me." Batman/Johnny stated in a serious tone.

"He's kinda right, Pedro. I mean that thing is really sharp and you could hurt somebody with it." Mavis said worriedly.

"Fine." Pedro frowned in disappointment while giving Batman/Johnny the batarang.

After Batman/Johnny puts the batarang back on his utility belt, he noticed a little boy crying hugging his legs while burying his face. He came over to the little boy to know what's his problem. Before he could even talk to the boy, Batman/Johnny turned off his voice modulator/changer to avoid scaring the kid.

"Hello there." Batman/Johnny said in his normal voice kneeling down to the boy's height level. The boy managed to put his head up and saw the man who called him.

"Ba... Batman?" The boy asked timidly while sobbing in tears.

"Hey, everything's going to be okay. You're going to be alright." Batman/Johnny said calmly. "Where are your parents, kid?."

"My parents... that evil scary clown took my parents away from. Now I don't know where he's taking them. I'm scared." The boy answered started crying again. Batman/Johnny figured out that the boy's parents were one of the hostages that the Joker has taken.

"What's you're name, kid?" Batman/Johnny asked.

"Ri... Richard... Richard Grayson." The boy/Richard answered.

"Don't worry, Richard. I promise you that I'll get your parents back safely and make that evil clown pay for his crimes." Batman/Johnny said sincerely while standing up. Just then, Dracula went over to Batman/Johnny finding out what's the situation happening.

"What's wrong?" Dracula asked which made Batman/Johnny turned his voice modulator/changer back on to disguise his voice.

"The boy's parents were one the hostages that were taken by the Joker. I'm bringing them back." Batman/Johnny said.

"Oh poor boy." Dracula looks down at the crying Richard felling bad for him. He thought that bringing Richard to the hotel could help him keep safe. "If it helps, maybe me and my family could bring this boy back to our home until we're sure his parents are alright. He should safe there I promise."

"Good call. I'm trusting you on this one, Dracula. I'll find the Joker." Batman/Johnny said while Dracula accompanied Richard. To Dracula's surprise, the young boy wasn't even scared to see him but rather he was amazed to meet the famous vampire in real life.

Before hunting down the Joker, Batman/Johnny needed to change back into his usual clothes so that Johnny Loughran could be reunited with his family safe and sound but a familiar female voice caught his attention.

"Wait." Mavis spoke up making Batman/Johnny to face her. "I just gotta ask, you've been doing this job for quite a while now. Saving the lives of people and stopping the bad guys but... why do you do what you do?"

"Because I made a promise. Seeing innocent people die... is the hardest part of this job and it's unavoidable." Batman/Johnny said lowering his head remembering the horrible night his parents were murdered. "That's why somebody needs to lock the criminals away before they even hurt anyone else. I serve justice for the greater good. If I don't do this, no one else would."

"Oh. I... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to pry. I shouldn't have asked." Mavis apologized noticing that Batman/Johnny could only feel sadness and anger at once.

"It's alright. No harm done." Batman/Johnny calmly said reassuring her. "I only created Batman because I didn't want innocent people to die and to protect the people I care about the most."

"We're all glad that you're doing the right thing." Mavis cheered for Batman/Johnny's bravery. Hearing those words made Batman/Johnny smile, especially coming from his fiancée, Mavis.

"See you around, Mavis." Batman/Johnny said as he fired his grappling gun on the rooftops.

"Whoa. He's kinda cool." Mavis watching Batman/Johnny zipping himself up on the rooftops but then blushed a little. Unknown to her that Hank, Pedro, and watched the interaction between Mavis and Batman/Johnny. "What are you guys starring at?"

"Mavis has a crush on Batman!" Wendy squealed while Hank and Pedro laughed.

"What?! No I don't!" Mavis shouted in embarrassment still blushing.

"Yeah she does! First Jett Black and now Batman. Johnny's gonna get jealous!" Hank laughed comparing Mavis' first vampire singer crush to the cape crusader.

"Alright, I may be disappointed that Uncle Drac is not Batman but this is way better!" Pedro continued to laugh.

"Shut up! I don't even know who he is and I'm getting married to Johnny, remember?!" Mavis retorted getting irate at them teasing her.
