A/N: Pure filler, enjoy.


It has been a few months since Ivy was killed and Bruce showed just how much he didn't trust me. I was a lot more hurt by it than I had let on, I actually really hate disappointing him. I show outwardly that I don't care, but I really respect him for what he does and who he is, so having him trust me so little like he did that day sucked. We haven't really had a big heart to heart about it yet, but we have been working on repairing our deeper problems together. It's been a slow process, but then again, he's Batman, he really doesn't trust anyone.

"Right, so here's the deal loveys." John Constantine says to us in the cave as he's being patched up. "I got a little problem with an amulet what got stolen last night, and my sources say it's here in Gotham, so I'm going to need your help in finding it." 

He had just appeared literally out of thin air in our living room a few minutes ago. As soon as he had appeared, I had thrown several knives and Jason shot him four times, reacting to the sudden being appearing in front of us. But thankfully, for him, he appeared with a barrier around himself so he wasn't harmed from our attacks. Unfortunately, for him, he dropped his shield before seeing the sneak attack from Damian, and is now being patched up by Alfred. Damian may or may not have gotten a high five from me and Jason after his success. 

"And judging by your reaction times from earlier, it seems you were the right lot to check in with. Glad I remembered from last time to have a barrier up, at least." He continues angrily with a glare, which we all ignore.

"You want us to fight a magic amulet now? We just finished fighting your vampire problem not long ago

"You want us to fight a magic amulet now? We just finished fighting your vampire problem not long ago." Tim asks skeptically and tiredly. We had just a few months ago fought off a horde of vampires for him that had been roaming around in Gotham, that was an interesting experience. "You do know none of us are magic, right?"

"Speak for yourself, I have a magic touch." Jason says arrogantly, cockily wriggling his eyebrows.

"Stepping over that landmine." I say with a grimace, shoving my twin off his seat unceremoniously and making him yelp. "What does this amulet do?" I ask the magician.

"Well beautiful," John says flirtaciously, eyeing me up and down in an obvious way. All four of my brothers step in between us and glare at him while I give him a deadpan expression. He hit on me last time he was here too. "Right," He sheepishly chuckles out and leans away from them. "Anyway, the amulet has the ability, when used properly, to grant the user immortality."

"And when used improperly?" Bruce asks sternly, suiting up to go out.

"It can de-age it's victims rapidly, turning them into a tiny tot again." He answers cheerily. A thought strikes my mind and I snort to myself.

"Baby bat!" I snort out, unable to hold the visual back. Bruce glares at me, putting his cowl on and walking to his car. "Sorry, couldn't resist the mental image."
