4yrs Later, Gotham City, July 4, 12:00EDT

Laughter filled the air as children ran around chasing various toys as their parents stood watching. Other adults others stood at grills, cooking various meals.

A cool breeze brushed through the air, causing a few to shiver at the sudden cold in the middle of summer. Many expected it to just brush by, but the temperature continued to drop, and people began to stop what they were doing, looking around as their breath became visible in the summer air. Frost developed along the grass and on chairs, causing many people to start taking hesitant steps back.

"Enjoying family time?" a echoey voice asked, sending chills up their spines as the looming figure of one of Gotham's most infamous supervillains approached, holding a glowing cannon in hand. The cannon began to whir, a glowing blue light emanating from it before it fired. Ice spread out from its impact, trapping various people inside. "My family has other plans."

Screams broke the tense silence as people began to run for their lives, trying to dodge icy blasts fired at them. Through the terror, Mr. Freeze stopped firing as he heard a faint but familiar cackle. Movement came from the corner of his eye, and the villain turned as his helmet thudded as something slammed against it, a flash of red and yellow leaping away and landing in the grass a few yards away as two objects slammed into his helmet, cracks spreading along the surface from the impact.

"Oh, Boy Wonder," Freeze greeted coldly, "the Bat sent you to drag me off to prison. Frankly I'm underwhelmed."

"Great, but I'm kind in a hurry here!" Robin replied, putting his hands on his hips as if being here was an inconvenience.

"Kids, always in such a rush."

Even though he couldn't see his eyes, Mr. Freeze felt the boy's gaze flicker to him in a deadpan expression. "Not talking to you."

At those words, the supervillain felt his stomach drop. Whirling on his heel, he turned just in time to see a bat-shaped shadow falling towards him and shattering his helmet.

Starr City, 9:01PDT

Brakes screeched as a figure leapt into the road. Hands slammed into the asphalt, sending a wave of ice up into the air. The sound of metal crumpling filled the air as cars slammed into the new icy barrier, cracks spreading it as the vehicles flew into the air. Landing on the ground, sparks flew into the air as glass shattered, causing the figure to laugh as icy claws grew on his fingers.

However, he didn't get a chance to do anything else before an arrow planted itself in the ice coating his shoulder. He didn't even hear the beeping before a blast went off, sending the icy villain flying off his feet and through his wall. Landing on the ground, he rolled to his feet ice regrowing on his hands; looking up a wide grin split his face as he saw red and green forms up above notching new arrows. "Finally," he smirked, massive clubs of ice forming over his fists, "was wondering what it took to get some attention around here!" Lurching his arm forwards, he fired the first volley of icy spears.

"Junior's doing this for attention?!" the red clad hero grumbled as he chased after his mentor. Icy shards bounced off his clothes, as the weapons exploded against the gates of the bridge. Leaping onto the support beams, he ran down firing an arrow that hit a forming ice wall, causing it to shatter. "I'm telling you this whole thing better not interfere!"
