At the Police Precinct's rooftop....
The bat signal was shining its light at the sky with Gordon holding a cigarette while waiting for Batman/Johnny.

After a few minutes of waiting, Batman/Johnny and Robin arrived.

BATMAN/JOHNNY: Enjoying the view?

GORDON: Hard to do these days. Sometimes I ask myself about what the hell I'm gonna do. These psychopaths are everywhere these days.

ROBIN: Uh... you know those things could kill you, right? Have you tried consider quitting?

GORDON: (*chuckle) Now you sound like my daughter, Barbara.

Gordon coughed a little which concerned Batman/Johnny and Robin. He threw away the cigarette and turned off the Bat signal.

GORDON: It's a good thing you two are here.

BATMAN/JOHNNY: Is it about the Riddler?

GORDON: Well, we can talk about that later. This new one is kinda bit of a problem. There has been kidnappings happening lately.

BATMAN: Kidnappings?

GORDON: Yeah. The victims were being kidnapped are all monsters.

ROBIN: Does the police officers have any lead or eye witnesses about the suspect?

GORDON: That's also one problem. Some of my officers were shot dead and injured trying to stop them. They say they were some sort of soldiers. Military perhaps.

ROBIN: Why would the military wanna hunt down monsters? They haven't done anything wrong?

GORDON: Oh and get this, they also stated that leading those Militia guys looked like Batman. Anyone you know?

BATMAN/JOHNNY: No. This is the first time I'm hearing about the kidnappings, Commissioner.

ROBIN: Wait, a Batman copycat? That's new.

GORDON: I've already sent my officers into patrol to find anymore missing monsters but with the Riddler still at large, I don't have enough men to hunt that evil bastard.

BATMAN/JOHNNY: If you find Riddler, tell your men not to engage. Me and Robin can take him down.

Gordon's walkie-talkie became active. He walked towards to a less crowded area leaving Batman/Johnny and Robin some time to talk.

ROBIN: What do you think?

BATMAN/JOHNNY: I don't like it. The kidnapping of monsters is what worries me. I don't want to worry Drac or Mavis back at the hotel.

ROBIN: What are you going to do?

BATMAN/JOHNNY: (*sigh) Right now our main objective is catching Riddler, after that we're investigating the missing monsters and who's ever behind this.

ROBIN: Good call. The quicker we find Riddler and the missing monsters, the better we clean up this mess.

Later on, Gordon came back to Batman/Johnny and Robin almost in panic.

GORDON: Damn it! My officers found have Riddler but he's taken hostages at the hospital with his armed men! We can't waste any time much longer!

BATMAN/JOHNNY: Don't divert any of your men, Gordon. Me and Robin can handle Riddler.

GORDON: I'll assemble all available officers I can! We'll meet you there!

Gordon quickly went back inside the precinct while both Batman and Robin used their grappling gun heading their way to the hospital, to the Riddler.
