The Adventures Of Batgirl
Batgirl: Sex Bomb
Chapter 8: Party Poopers
Saturday, 9:19 am
The two masked vigilantes stood facing each other in the Batcave beneath Wayne Manor, hands on hips. Both men had changed into their familiar superhero costumes, in readiness for possible action.
Robin slammed one gloved fist into the palm of the other hand. "Holy Vanishing Act, Batman!" he exclaimed, with almost child-like petulance. "What the hell has happened to them? I'm almost out of my mind with worry."
The senior member of the Dynamic Duo remained totally calm, a frown of concentration creasing his forehead beneath his Batcowl. "You did say that Jennifer was planning to go and see Barbara, last night, didn't you?" he inquired.
The Boy Wonder nodded, wondering where this line of conversation was leading. "Yeah, about eight. Barbara was pretty up-tight about her father's suspension from the force and, when I last spoke to Jenny on the phone, she told me she was going over to Bab's place last night, to try to cheer her up."
"Hmm?" Batman stroked his square jaw thoughtfully, with the fingers of his right hand. "Knowing just how headstrong the delectable Ms. Gordon can be, you don't think she might have talked young Jennifer into going out on night patrol with her, as Batgirl and Sparrow? Perhaps to search for possible clues as to the identity of the real perpetuators of the weapons heist."
"It's a possibility," Robin admitted. "Perhaps even likely, but how does that help us?" He clenched his gloved fists, his youthful impatience starting to re-assert itself.
Batman walked over and seated himself in front of the Batcomputer. "Perhaps more than you might realize, old chum. He started clicking the mouse cursor on various menus and icons on the desktop display, searching for a particular application.
While doing this, he continued their conversation. "You remember that upgrade to Batgirl's enhanced electronic hearing, that I carried out the other week? The one that fits into the ears of her Batcowl?"
"The improved hearing aid, designed by the whiz kids over at WayneTech Electronics? Yeah, I remember, but what's..."
Batman turned back to face him, a broad grin on his face. "Well, I took the opportunity to insert a small, experimental tracking device into it, without the Dark Damsel's knowledge, of course. If she had known, she would probably have kicked up an almighty fuss, and accused me of treating her like a little child!"
"Yeah, that sounds like Barbara," Robin agreed, nodding, absently. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. "Hey, does that mean we should be able to track down Batgirl's whereabouts?" he exclaimed, excitedly.
Batman turned back to the flat panel monitor screen and clicked the mouse cursor on an application icon, causing a satellite navigation map of Gotham City to spring up onto the screen, similar to the SatNav displays in the Batmobile and in his top of the line Mercedes saloon.
"This application uses the latest GPS, Global Positioning System software, Robin," the Dark Knight explained. "It was originally developed by the Department of Defense and involves the use of a series of orbiting communications satellites. Assuming that Barbara is currently wearing her latest Batgirl outfit, and that she's within a 10 mile radius, hopefully we should..." He clicked a button on the right of the map display, with the mouse cursor. "Ah, that's what I was hoping to see, Batgirl's, and almost certainly Sparrow's, current whereabouts!" he exclaimed, leaning back in the chair.
Robin rushed up and peered over Batman's shoulder, at the road map display on the monitor screen. There was a small winking red light toward the bottom right corner of the map, just to the south of the Gotham City docklands. "Hey, if I'm not mistaken, that's an old industrial area, with lots of rundown factories and loads of old abandoned buildings," the Boy Wonder exclaimed, excitedly.
"Just the sort of place where the Joker might have his latest lair," mused the Dark Knight, thoughtfully.
The Boy Wonder straightened up, a fresh look of shock on his face. "You... you think that ghastly maniac may have something to do with the disappearance of the girls, Batman?" he gasped.
"Possibly, Boy Wonder? What is the common denominator that links most of the major crime events that have occurred in Gotham, recently?"
The Boy Wonder frowned in concentration. "The stolen guns," he ventured.
"Yes, that AND a certain police officer."
"Schmitt?" exclaimed Robin, his eyes widening.
"Yes, none other than Acting Police Commissioner Schmitt. I have just discovered, thanks to the Batcomputer's unofficial link to the main GCPD computer terminal, that Schmitt was familiar with the security systems used in the central armory, having overseen their initial installation, on behalf of the force. He was also directly involved in the suspension of Jim Gordon and his subsequent arrest. He could also have been responsible for the delay in the police attending the scene of the armored truck robbery, since he IS the Acting Police Commissioner. It would be a simple matter of routing all emergency calls of this type, through his office. Also, we've already found out that he's been a frequent visitor of the Joker in Arkham Asylum, over the last couple of months."
"Yeah, and he wasn't too keen on the Dynamic Duo getting involved in any further major crimes in Gotham," added Robin, excitedly. "Holy Subterfuge, Batman! I think you may have something there."
"Schmitt was also involved in Joker's escape from Arkham, although, on the face of it, he appears to have become involved very much against his will. Hmm, I wonder? Well, enough of this supposition, old chum," the Caped Crusader exclaimed, jumping to his feet. "We have two damsels in distress who need rescuing. To the Batmobile!"

Peter Schmitt strode through what he regarded as a junk shop of tatty circus memorabilia and nodded at the two hoodlums sprawled out on a couch, drinking cheap booze. He received a nodded acknowledgement in return.
As he entered the clown's head mouth, which led into the Joker's boudoir, there was a self-satisfied smirk on his face. "Things are going nicely, partner," he crowed, rubbing his hands together, avariciously. "The Gotham crime syndicate are..."
