Bane and Freeze leave Batman.....broken

Alfred's legs still frozen


Outside Freezes freezes half Wayne manor sealing them in in ice


Mr. Freeze: Freeze away Batman.


And then he hopped in the van driving off



After minutes passed Robin with Batgirl on her own motorcycle pulled into the entrance of the batcave with Robin calling on a speaker


Robin: Open.


The entrance opens and they rode in 

Inside they saw the aftermath of Bane's destruction and soon found Alfred


Robin: ALFRED!


Alfred: Help him....


They look down saw Batman lying on the floor below


Robin: No...take this. 


Robin gives Batgirl his heat ray.


Robin: Press the center to blast to melt the ice.


Batgirl nods and attends thawing Alfred while Dick tends to the broken Batman 


Robin: Batman! Bruce are you alright? 


Batman could barely speak the pain was really getting to him


Robin: Hang on big guy. Just hang on.


Hours passed and Bruce was now being treated in the medic wing of the batcave 

While Alfred was in the best care too due to his legs were frozen

Robin and pretty much Batgirl stood outside the wing


Batgirl: I still can't believe it. Bruce Wayne is Batman?


Robin: Believe me I knew you'd find out if I asked you to give me a lift here. And I wouldn't have had to if Freeze hadn't destroyed my bike.


Batgirl: Then that would also make you his ward.


Robin sighed knowing there was no hiding it now he removes his mask

Dick: Guilty as charged....Bruce would kill me if I told you this but I was out of options. 


Batgirl: Then I guess it's only fair you knew me too.


To Dick's surprise Batgirl removes her mask and to Dick's shock 


Dick: Barbra?!


Barbra: Guilty as charged. 


Dick: So you're Batgirl? But how long?


Barbra: Since my mother's accident. And that my dad puts his life on the line every night....I wanted to make a difference. Both my dad and the Batman inspired me to become Batgirl. 


Dick: Yeah he's got that effect on everyone. Look you're not gonna tell your dad or anyone about us are you? It's not that we don't trust him but if everyone knew our secrets it would bite us all. 


Barbra: Don't worry my dad doesn't even know what I'm doing. After my mother he'd flip the F out.


Dick: So will Bruce. But knowing you're the Commissioner's daughter he might recruit you.


Barbra: I don't know he wasn't keen on that when he saved me from Bane's mercenaries and at the base all though he let Catwoman and me help.


Dick: I wouldn't trust Catwoman. She's a gold digging bitch.


Barbra: I know she seems heartless but I think she means well. Other wise why help you guys stop Bane.


Dick: Probably just to save her own selfish hyde. 


Dick was unlikely to see Catwoman other wise


Meanwhile in Freeze's van they finally arrive at Gothcorp's research lab 

The mercenaries began the break in by disabling the alarm and then Freeze blasts freezing the entrance 

And the mercs bust in to hold the place up as Bane comes in behind Freeze


Freeze freezes security guards in their way 


Any remaining hostages were forced on their knees scared to death 


Bane: Ladies and gentlemen please do not be alarmed. My men and I are only here to acquire one thing. Who here has the most possession.....of the Lazarus chemicals?


A man shouts if he nuts given that chemical is heavily classified 


But Bane snapped his neck like a twig which panics the crowd But were forced to resume silence by mercenaries shooting up 


Bane: Any volunteers?


Hardly given a choice some staff lead Bane and Freeze and three mercs to them to where the Lazarus chemicals were being kept 


A scan of a staff's eye opens the door automatically and inside 


The Lazarus chemicals 

Bane: At last....after years of searching.....the Lazarus chemicals are now in our clutches.


Mr. Freeze: Nora will finally have her cure. 


Bane: Our prayers have indeed been answered Senior Victor. Now the time has come for our next step into evolution. 


In time tubes of the Lazarus chemicals were being stored into trucks the mercs were steal8ng from the facility 


Freeze stared for the first time in years....feeling hope


Mr. Freeze: It won't be long now Nora. Soon the cure will be complete. 



(Freeze may have his hope back but what hope does Gotham have without Batman? Robin? Batgirl.......?)
