Catwoman lurked in the corners of Wigglehouse and she saw Robin's death.

"Ahh.... poor little Robin. Did your baby ruffle your feathers?" she teased.

"Catwoman! You fiend!" said Batman.

"I was not part of the drugging, Batman, you know that" said Catwoman.

"No you weren't, but you were involved in this whole war. You killed my sidekick!" said Batman.

"You were always outnumbered anyway. Four to two" said Catwoman.

"You just wait! The Three Warriors will be back to save Robin" said Batman.

"Oh, on the contrary. They're too late. They're too late!" Catwoman cackled.

"Too late?" said Batman.

"They've had it now. The Penguin put them to sleep" said Catwoman.

"You've damaged the Warriors too? How dastardly!" said Batman.

"Face it, Batman. We have won" Catwoman meowed as she scurried back to her lair.

Batman had just about lost hope. 

His home was destroyed and his sidekick was dead. And there seemed to be no way to save him without the Warriors.

Batman sang about how he didn't know how to go on.

I'm told that it's too late

They're still dancing their dance

My sidekick has died

I may not have a chance

How can I save his hide?

How can I right this wrong?

How can I go on

This war lasted too long

If I fight, my life will be resumed

If I hide, I am doomed

I am the savior of hundred of citizens

They all look to me

Can I abandon them?

How would they live without help from me?

If I fight, my life will be resumed

If I hide, I am doomed

Who am I? 

Can I condemn the fiends to prison?

Pretend I do not feel this agony

The Boy Wonder beared bigger pain

It was worse than a ball and chain

Who am I?

Must I conceal myself forevermore?

Because I'm not the man I was before

And how could I let Robin die

Without him, I cannot fight crime

Can I try?

How can I ever face my friends again?

How can I ever face myself again?

I made it with Robin before

And now I'm helpless to the core

He brought me hope when hope was gone

He gave me strength to journey on

Who am I?

Who am I?

I'm still Batman

And even though I'm now alone

I never really was alone

Who am I?

The Caped Crusader!
