DC vs. Vampires

In London, John Constantine) sits in a bar and talks to himself. Zatanna) walks in and asks if she can talk to him privately. Unbeknownst to Zatanna, John is already aware she is a vampire and plans to bite him, so when she prepares to attack, he uses a spell to stop her. Zatanna is angered, but calms down when John assures her that he does not plan on killing her since he wants someone to listen to him gripe.

In the Batcave, Batman) is working to collect as many blood samples as possible when he realizes that the Batcave has been intruded and shuts off the lights. Green Arrow) shoots what he *thinks* is Batman with a Trick Arrow, only to realize he shot a decoy mannequin, and Batman attacks him with a stake.

Batgirl) investigates in Gotham City and finds her way into an abandoned hotel room. Nightwing) follows her in, and the two briefly flirt before Batgirl shows him that she found dirt in the room. Vampires must sleep above dirt from their ancestral home as they travel, and the room was booked for a long-term stay by a certain Mary Shackton, "Shackton" being the maiden name of Mary, Queen of Blood)'s mother. Batgirl surmises that Mary traveled to Gotham in secret, and she and Nightwing now have to find out why.

Back in the Batcave, Batman and Green Arrow engage in brutal hand-to-hand combat. During the fight, Green Arrow shoots Batman with a Trick Arrow filled with water, before Batman tackles him and pins him to the ground to stake him. As they stare at each other, Green Arrow and Batman realize they are both trying to kill a vampire - and neither of them is a vampire.

John and Zatanna are in the middle of a conversation when Doctor Fate) appears to get John's help. Zatanna immediately lunges at Fate; although John freezes her with a spell, Fate uses his powers to destroy her. An angered John curses Fate for destroying his friend and expresses apathy towards Fate's justification that the fate of the world is at stake.

Batman asks Green Arrow how he learned of the vampires' plans. Green Arrow explains that he captured a vampire Clock King) and, despite Clock King's unreliability, was able to determine that there was a vampire conspiracy that ran deep. He began tracking villain movements, which led him to Gotham, and rumors that a hero had been turned caused him to assume that Batman was a vampire. Batman tells Green Arrow that his assumption that a hero was a vampire was partially correct - Hal Jordan) is now a vampire and killed Barry Allen). However, Batman tells Green Arrow they must not go after him yet, since Hal is certainly *not* the lead vampire.

Back in Gotham, Red Hood) and Batgirl) fight a legion of vampires led by Gorilla Grodd), one of the vampire generals, in an office building. Grodd attempts to throw Red Hood out the window, but Batgirl barely saves him and Grodd escapes. Red Hood asks Batgirl if she found any evidence, and she reveals one of the Joker)'s playing cards, with giant fangs drawn on it.

Batman and Green Arrow look over potential suspects on the Batcomputer when the Batcave's intrusion alarm rings. Green Arrow is relieved to see it is Wonder Woman), but Batman realizes she is a vampire when she claims that Barry's death is not Batman's fault and that he is "sick". Hal also appears before a massive alarm goes off and the entire Justice League of America) makes their entrance. Batman and Green Arrow realize that Hal and Wonder Woman have tricked the entire Justice League into hunting them, and a fight breaks out.
