The video cut into a fast-paced montage.
A documentary-style segment titled: "Behind the Scenes - Fan Life (Ver. 3)."
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaj2nIPNIF
At first, the Batfamily thought it might be some touching origin story or footage of survival in an alternate world.
Then a bold title flashed across the screen:
"Opening Day of The Batman - Movie Experience (Ver. 3)"
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4MRLejoQw
Cut to:
Damian’s grandmother had rented out an entire IMAX theater.
No other audience. Just the five of them, seated in the third row center, each holding three bags of popcorn, fully geared up, emotions already running wild.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTtxy7e7SV
Five minutes in.
The moment the battle-damaged Batwing appeared, Damian’s grandma stood up and shouted:
"BATTLE-DAMAGED BATWING! NICE!"
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CgHKAJy75
A touching family scene?
She screamed:
"Quick! DC is giving us sugar! Eat it! Eat it now!"
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZb5L4fAjPb
Nightwing's wife clutched her head: "THE ANGST IS COMING. If they give us sugar, a knife is right behind it!"
Red Hood Mom was already sobbing: "So sweet… it's making my heart feel empty..."
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9rLeyCfx7
Bruce turned to face the camera.
The entire theater exploded:
"AAAAAAHHHH HE TURNED HIS HEAD!!!"
"NO NO NO BRUCE NOT AGAIN!!"
"HOW DO WE SAVE MY HUSBAND AAAHHHH!!"
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhL3i4fDdw
Then—Superman appeared, throwing a punch at Bruce.
Bella shrieked from her soul:
"DON'T HIT HIS FACE! HE MAKES A LIVING OFF THAT FACE!!!"
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDsJnJw4xY
Movie Bruce scolds Damian.
Damian’s grandma stood again and screamed: "FUCK BATMAN!" while flipping the international sign of disrespect.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmR4HQfNvbs
Back in the Batcave, silence fell.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToGz2aYRlE
Dick twitched at the corner of his mouth. Then, in muted horror:
"So... my wife three-peats every movie?"
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbET8K9cDl
Jason turned to Bruce: "Old man, do you even know how many times you've 'died again'? Maybe it's time to reevaluate your tactics."
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJdbGHcaRq
Tim covered his face: "I didn’t want to know they analyzed the golden ratio of your profile… but now I do… I know too much…"
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sDy4hJFds
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDW8eKm7kwK
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xi0T3W3Ev
The video continued.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJu6W2nydk4
The movie ended. The three fans slumped in their chairs like they’d been steamrolled by an emotional rollercoaster.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrYbumS23y
Nightwing’s wife: "Do you think... I'd get sued if I mailed DC a knife?"
Red Hood Mom, cool as ice: "Yes."
Damian’s grandma, aura blazing: "Add silver needles. More cost-efficient."
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaK2gygeaS
Cut to black.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ33sEUfWBt
Then a photo appeared: the five girls posing in front of a life-size Batman figure outside the cinema.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgmdNiCU0S
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtOBz8tWkK
Later that evening, the five gathered in the living room.
When the cake came out, Nora thought it was someone’s birthday.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8ne3z54Wt
"BATMAN'S 100TH BIRTHDAY!" Bella declared solemnly, raising a sign: "Counting from his first comic issue, he's 100 today!"
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLxp5A6fry
There was a real cake. A themed one. Black Bat-symbol right in the center. Seven candles, crooked and chaotic, but the mood was strangely reverent.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NDiSUMaBd
They sang the full birthday song. Not a single note skipped.
Red Hood Mom filmed silently, serious-faced.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBDaigaUSC
Nora stared, slightly stunned.
They weren’t joking.
This wasn’t satire.
They were genuinely, sincerely, celebrating the birthday of a fictional character.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiVRdvn6HI
Alfred, watching from the doorway, shook his head: "Didn’t expect Master Bruce to be celebrating his centennial at such a young age."
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs20MQ5eUJY
Dick collapsed laughing on the table.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC83w6Cu9nk
Then Nightwing’s wife twisted the knife:
"Next year, it’ll be Dick’s 100th birthday~"
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPtMSx8yjV
And just like that, "Dick at 100" became the biggest meme in the Batcave.
Someone even updated the Bat-comm system with the "Centennial Grandpa Squad" tag.91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3jkPA4jYw
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJLMxttD6J
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3DLsSIjg8
But just as the laughter peaked—
the soundtrack changed.
The visuals darkened.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuxlr4uBwi
One by one, the Batfamily fell silent.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6kc8aAk62
The footage of rowdy theater cheers gave way to somber orchestral tones and slow-motion shots.
The streets turned gray. The lighting dimmed.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0zpewqjnl
A news anchor’s voice, panicked:
"Confirmed case numbers continue to rise... an unidentified virus is spreading rapidly... please stay indoors..."
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiVss8inWo
People on the screen became frantic.
Pushing. Running.
Familiar faces turned fearful and close.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlcwoGdKT4
The video pressed on.
Death tolls climbed. Cities locked down.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxRJPimnPF
Nora's father appeared on a phone call, hurriedly saying:
"The kindergarten's closed too. Stay safe, okay..."
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeKuKYu6Ex
But on screen, the roads showed the first twisted-body attack.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFExWWCwRZi
Then, the viewer entered Nora's school.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBplHFusai8
She sat in her uniform at the back of the class.
Sunlight streamed in diagonally.
It looked normal.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8fDcWnbvc
Classmates were chatting. The teacher was grading.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFVcvxkfn5
Then—
Footsteps in the hallway.
Heavy. Sticky. Wrong.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26M9oMm1bt
The teacher frowned and stood: "Everyone stay quiet. I’ll go check."
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHQQGR094M
The door opened.
A scream burst through.
Beast-like. Like vocal cords tearing apart.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeDpKMPLVD
Then silence.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BQxSanD51
The teacher never returned.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdh6ueXnna
On screen, Nora staggered from the school.
She escaped through the back door, avoided the infected security guard, fell near the wall, then ran.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXxKLHvgTH
The city was no longer calm.
Screams and crashing rose.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWeyBvf8B9
Cannibalism.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYPVP0r0W5
She ran, terrified.
Overturned trucks. Blood on the walls.
A pristine city unraveling.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheoSaE1EGv
She ran.
She hid.
She made it to her home.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gsFjS2Gz3
Her hands trembled as she jammed the key into the lock.
Twisting, almost crying.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9re4opC6t
The door opened.
She froze.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgj1aoyRKIY
Blood. Everywhere.
On the floor. The walls. By the shoe rack. Down the hall.
Thick. Red. Chaotic.
Mixed with the sound of breaking furniture and half-stifled screams.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwIquXoLgs
The smell of blood hit her like a beast lunging.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc01hqloRIj
She stood there, stunned.
Lips quivering.
Her head rang, like the world was breaking apart inside her ears.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1rzN6oJ5L
She made no sound.
But she looked like she was about to collapse.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTIDswNlEn
This was her beginning.
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSs7AuskdrA
《End of Bonus Chapter》
91Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUb2FTG5OZ
This bonus chapter connects directly to my upcoming story Wasteland Rose. You're invited to follow Nora as she begins to bridge her past and her future.
Because Nora has lived through a profoundly lonely apocalypse, she carries a touch of madness that runs even deeper than most. When it comes to obsession, she’s every bit a match for Tim, the male lead.
Tim Drake—this particular Robin—is a character notoriously difficult to categorize. I’ve wracked my brain trying to find the right partner for him. But in this story, I hope to give him a relationship that isn’t so dark. Nora’s core is about protection—and she willingly chooses to stand beside Tim, helping him protect Gotham.
