"Marinette! Are you okay?" Chloe asks the girl as she meets back up with the class.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I was only stuck in the bathroom for like 20 minutes." The bluenette shrugs. "Are we still going to finish the tour? What exactly happened?"

"Yeah, the tour is still on. Apparently, the people who tried to rob this place never even made it inside. Gotham's heroes stopped them all at the front door." Kim said excitedly. "I wish we could have seen it."

"Could you hear the gunshots from in the bathroom?" Alix asked.

"Yeah. Totally scary."

"I wonder what they were after?" Max questioned. "There must be a lot of valuable things in this museum."

"Who knows?" Marinette shrugged.

"It's a good thing those heroes were here to stop them." Adrien added as they started up the tour again.

"Oh yes, I've met Batman before. I once saved his life." Lila was spewing her lies again while they were all on their lunch break.

Marinette rolled her eyes.

"You did? That's totally awesome, girl." Alya jumped excitedly. "How did you do that?"

"Well it was last year with the Joker and Harley. Batman had his back turned and he didn't see them coming. They were going to shoot him but I pushed him out of the way in time." Lila grinned at all her friends. "He was so grateful that after he sent them away to prison, he gave me a ride back to my hotel in his Batcar."

"Ridiculous." Chloe shook her head. "Utterly ridiculous. That bozo couldn't tell the truth even if she wanted to."

"The Batcar?" Max looked thoroughly offended. "How can she mess up that badly and they not notice?"

"And Harley hasn't been with the Joker in over 2 years." Marinette laughed.

"Has she ever heard of google?" Adrien asked.

"Apparently not. I'm not sure any of them have." Alix joked.

"And don't they send them all to Arkham and not a prison?" Kim looked at Max.

"That is correct." Max nodded.

"Class" Madame Mendeleiev got everyone's attention. "It's time to continue our tour. Everyone clean up after yourselves and line up."

While she was on her second half of her tour, Marinette received a group chat invite with all of Bruce's sons. Not really caring about the tour anymore, she joined the group and read the messages.
