There should have been two people in a certain hotel room where a tragedy had just taken place. The person who was in there was Porter Richards who was sprawled face down on the floor because he had been shot with knockout gas by an insane clown. The person who should have been there but wasn't was his wife and reporter Summer Richards. The hotel room was missing its door because it had been destroyed by a pumped up behemoth named Bane. Sitting on a table next to the drugged man was a beeping monitor. It was obvious that someone was trying to get the attention of the unconscious man. It seem that the monitor had finally done its job because the man had finally stirred.
Porter had to fight a dizzy spell and a small wave of nausea when he sat up. When his head finally cleared he looked around the room for his beloved wife Summer. When he didn't see her, he frantically searched everyplace he could think of. The man finally remembered what had happened when he saw the busted doorway. At this moment, his face turned scarlet with rage and he vowed to the room that he was going to kill a certain clown as if someone could hear him. An annoying beeping finally penetrated his thoughts and he slapped the red button on top of the nearby monitor to turn it on.
"It's about time you woke up!" the purple suited menace known as the Joker cackled.
"YOU!" Porter snarled.
"Let's play a game!" Joker giggled.
"Where... is... my... wife?" Porter barked through his clenched teeth.
"She's right here," Joker cackled as the camera shifted to show that Summer and Batman minus his utility belt was trapped in a cage.
"Don't bother coming for me!" Summer demanded. "Bane is here! I don't want to see what he'll do to you!"
"A man protecting his family will find a way," Porter debated.
"That's quite enough!" Joker cut in as he took back the camera. "Listen Romeo! We have a surprise set up for you at Hyde park. Be here alone in one hour or your wife and Batsy will go out with a smile!"
"Oh, I'll be there, and we'll just see who will be surprised," Porter threatened.
" Buh-bye!" Joker snickered while shutting off the monitor.
Porter turned and walked out the door with a grim frown of determination and the clothes he was wearing which included a red shirt and blue jeans. He had just exited the room when he was intercepted by a thin man wearing a rumpled silver suit and hat. Porter thought if you added twenty pounds to the man and changed his suit color that he could pass for Harvey Bullock. The connection would have been amusing if he hadn't been in deep trouble. This trouble got worse when the man flashed a badge.
"I'm Sergeant Greg Mullock, and..." the officer said.
"Did you say Bullock?" Porter asked with bugged out eyes.
"No, Mullock!" the cop barked. "Listen, care telling me what happened here?"
"Party crashers!" Porter put out while trying to step around the officer to no avail.
"Maybe you'd like to talk about this down at the station!" Officer Mullock threatened as he pulled out his handcuffs to make Porter gasp.
Just at that moment, a couple of small black balls hit the floor and ejected a gas which made both men gag. Porter felt someone grab his elbow and put a handkerchief over his mouth so he wouldn't breathe in too much of the gas. The mysterious savior who was escorting Porter to the stairs had his identity concealed with a gas mask. When they were both out of the hotel and approaching a large black limo, the savior took off the gas mask to reveal himself to be none other than Alfred Pennyworth.
"I thought that I should check on you when I lost contact with Master Bruce," Alfred mention when both people were on their way.
"I need to get to Hyde Park in one hour!" Porter put out.
"Right away, sir," Alfred agreed.
"Since I am not your boss, just call me Porter," Porter insisted. "And thanks for the assist."
"Of course, Porter," Alfred acknowledged.
"Would you happen to have pictures of Hyde Park?" Porter wondered.
"There should me a map in the glove compartment," Alfred replied, causing Porter to rummage for it.
"Oh, good!" Porter mused. "Lots of trees around it for a sneak attack.
"Master Bruce keeps some of his tools in the back seat," Alfred informed Porter while pointing at a silver case with a bat symbol on it. "Normally, he would frown on others using his equipment, but I'm sure he would make an exception in this case."
"Since it didn't work when Saul tried to put his armor on David, I think I'll pass," Porter refused.
Porter instructed Alfred to let him out well before the destination so he wouldn't loose the element of surprise. The brown haired man with glasses ran off to face destiny.
Fifteen minutes later, Summer stood in her cage knowing that her husband would run into the trap. She didn't want her husband to get hurt, but she didn't want to die either. She started to wish that Porter would come to save her. She began singing so she wouldn't give the bad guys the satisfaction of seeing her cry.
"Where is my happy ending? Where have all the cowboys gone?"
"Paula Cole?" Batman wondered.
"Yes," Summer replied.
"Why pick that song?" Batman wanted to know.
"Um... it's personal," Summer coughed while blushing a little bit.
"Your singing won't do any good," the fat Penguin chirped while holding one of his deadly umbrellas. "No one is getting passed me."
To prove how wrong he was, Porter flew out from behind a tree and put his left hand on the umbrella. He punched Penguin in the face with his free hand to separate the bad guy from his weapon.
"Hi, cowboy!" Summer greeted.
"Give that back!" Penguin threatened while taking a step towards Porter in an attempt to get his precious umbrella back.
Oswald Cobblepot could not believe his eyes when Porter Richards leveled the umbrella right at the bad guy's heart. The Penguin experienced mortal terror when he saw the almost insane look in Porter's eyes and smile.
"I wonder what this one does!" Porter barked with a maniacal voice.
"NO!" Penguin yelped. "That's my gun umbrella!"
"What are you doing?" Summer shrieked.
"You wouldn't!" Penguin pleaded.
"Wouldn't I?" Porter laughed to even surprise the Joker. "Ever since I got here, you idiots have been threatening my family! Maybe this is the only way to stop it!"
"NO, PORTER!" Summer protested. "That is not who we are! If you kill him, you'll change! I want you to stay just the way you are! Please don't do it!"
A war went on in Porter's scarred mind. The hand that was holding the umbrella was slightly shaking. Summer could hardly breathe and neither could Penguin. Finally, Porter decided.
"You owe her your life!" Porter bellowed.
The hero turned the umbrella upside down and looped Penguin's feet with the handle. He quickly pulled the umbrella up to send Oswald crashing to the ground. Porter finished Penguin off by whacking the bad guy over the head twice with his own weapon. He then threw it into the trees in disgust. While Porter was walking towards the insane clown, Batman secretly slipped a small card into the pocket of Summer's purple skirt.
"I didn't know you had it in you!" Joker snickered.
"When I was three years old, my parents gave me a clown punching bag for my birthday!" Porter began. "You know how kids are with their toys! They don't last very long!"
"How do you remember that?" Joker demanded.
"That's why parents take pictures!" Porter growled.
"I should have guessed," Joker babbled.
"You're bantha poodoo!" Porter promised.
"May the force be with you!" Joker squealed as he snapped his fingers.
"Let's get him boys!" a sinister voice appeared from out of nowhere.
The same Three Stooges Porter had dealt with more than a year ago came out from their hiding places. It had been easier back then because Joker hadn't been in the room with him. Now that Joker was present, Porter knew that it would probably be fatal to take his eyes off the clown to fight the Stooges. Porter used his peripheral vision to notice that the Stooges were are approaching in a circle and they were the same distance away. Porter waited for the last second to jump back causing the Stooges to have a bone rattling collision with each other. Porter punched them all to daze them while they were still stuck together. The hero finished the job with one roundhouse to their heads.
"Where were we?" Porter cackled.
"Leave my puddin' alone!" a feminine voice threatened.
Harley Quinn came jumping out of a tree on a Pogo stick. The jester was going to crush the hero on the third bounce when the hero stepped aside and kicked the Pogo stick away from her. Porter smashed her with it while she was still on the ground.
"Do you buy your stooges at K-Mart?" Porter asked.
"Pick a card!" Joker squealed with delight as he whipped out one of his deadly playing cards.
"WATCH OUT!" Summer screamed.
Porter dove to the ground to barely avoid the deadly projectile.
"I had no idea that I would be playing cutthroat bridge today!" Porter snickered.
The Joker found Porter's joke so funny that he couldn't stop himself from laughing so loud that he closed his eyes. The Joker opened his eyes just in time to see a fiery punch collide with his face. Porter put both of his fists together and clubbed Joker in the stomach which doubled him over. Porter gave Joker a roundhouse to the chin to leave the clown on the ground unconscious. The hero now was rummaging pockets for the key to the prisoners' cage.
"Where is the key?" Porter cried out.
"I have the key, Senor!" a deadly voice let out from a large distance away from Porter.
Porter whipped around to face his last opponent of the night who had the desired key around his neck. Batman's strongest bad guy Bane turn a dial on his wrist which caused him to grow a foot right before Porter's eyes.
"Playing the part of David will now be Porter Richards," Porter murmured to himself.
"NO!" Summer protested. "Leave us! I don't want you to get hurt!"
"Perhaps you should listen to the lady," Bane advised.
"I don't abandon my family," Porter refused.
"Your funeral," Bane threatened.
"What do I have to fear from a pipsqueak like you?" Porter insulted.
"I will break you!" Bane bellowed as he ran towards the hero.
Porter put his hands in his pocket and looked at the monster with disdain on his face. In the next second, Porter quickly took something at of pocket and hid it behind his back. At the desired time, the man with glasses took two quick steps to his right and spun in the air. When Porter completed his circle, he threw something shiny at Bane's back. To Bane's surprise, Porter had not been looking for a key when he was looting Joker's pockets. Porter had borrowed one of Joker's cards which he used to sever the cable that carried Bane's precious venom. Porter watched with his arms folded across his chest as Bane screamed and shrank down to size.
"I can still break you!" Bane promised.
A swarm of deadly bees by the name of Porter Richards hit Bane. Each punch carried the rage the hero was feeling because of the plight of his wife. Bane eventually screamed like a stuck pig and passed out. The hero surveyed the carnage to make sure the danger was over and then grabbed the key.
"GAME OVER!" Porter bellowed to the world.
