It was a sunny afternoon in Gotham City. Wonder Woman and Batgirl were on patrol when a blazing light streaked across the sky!
BOOM! The glowing-hot object crashed into the nearby botanical garden.
Lets check it out! called Wonder Woman. Im glad youre here, the head gardener said. As soon as that meteorite landed, the plants started doing really strange things.... Wonder Woman noticed that the plants seemed to be growing quickly and moving on their own.
A tendril shot out and wrapped around her arm! WHOOSH! A dark figure swung in on a jungle vine, snatching up the glowing meteorite. Poison Ivy! Batgirl gasped. I could sense this space rocks plant powers from miles away, the villain declared.
Its just what I need to start my plant army! Poison Ivy is using the meteorite to control the mutating plants! yelled Wonder Woman. The tentacle-like tendrils squeezed the two heroes tighter and tighter. Batgirl reached into her Utility Belt.
She grabbed her Batarang and cut through the slithering vines. The heroes chased Poison Ivy into the desert greenhouse. You two need to get the point nothing can stop me now! the villain cried. Fsst! Fsst! Fsst! Suddenly, the cacti started firing sharp thorns at the heroes! Jumping forward with lightning speed, Wonder Woman used her silver bracelets to deflect the thorns. Zing! Zing! Zing!Sharp thinking! said Batgirl. Wonder Woman and Batgirl dashed after Poison Ivy into the outdoor gardens. Wonder Woman and Batgirl dashed after Poison Ivy into the outdoor gardens.
Time for my a-MAZE-ing escape! Poison Ivy exclaimed. She ducked into a large hedge maze ahead of the heroes. Wonder Woman and Batgirl chased Poison Ivy through the twists and turns of the maze. But Poison Ivy was using the meteorite to make the greenery lash out at the heroes! Branches swatted them angrily, and grass tugged at their heels. Wonder Woman spun her magic lasso, mowing through the branches, while Batgirl hacked at the plants with her Batarang. Wonder Woman and Batgirl found the villain near a row of bushes trimmed into the shapes of animals.
Wonder Woman told Poison Ivy, Youre a bad seed... and were about to nip your plans in the bud. Ill teach you once and for all not to meddle with me, Poison Ivy warned. She held the meteorite above her head. Rays of sunlight made it glow with alien power. The flowers and animal-shaped shrubs uprooted and began creeping toward the heroes! Were surrounded! Wonder Woman shouted as she and Batgirl prepared to defend themselves.
I think its time the whole world went green , dont you? Poison Ivy cackled. Batgirl had an idea. She threw a Batarang at the meteorite in Poison Ivys hands, shattering the space rock. Wonder Woman used her magic lasso to snare a pipe on the gardens water tower. She pulledand water rushed out, soaking Poison Ivy!
