Batman went and uncovered the traditional attire on his chest to see how the wounds looked like in real life. He had already used his X-ray vision to look inside but he needed to see the wound first hand and then try to deduce anything if possible.

John too joined in this. He was interested in knowing how this happened and wanted to see what Bruce thought of it. And after few minutes of close examination, Wayne said

"He was killed in sleep for sure. And this was done very fast. The murderer came and went very fast from the looks of it since your camera wasn't able to catch any footage. This murderer can probably teleport like we do." Wayne said.

"What do you mean? A murderer that belongs to the Avengers? Only you people have the technology of teleportation. Is this why you are here because you suspect a murderer belong to the Avengers?" Okoye said as she thought about it.

"No. None of the Avengers are responsible. I can testify on that and everything was under security yesterday. We are interested on the murder because we felt something would go wrong and this was the news we got early morning." John said in order to erase the doubts that these people had. He knew why the Wakandans wouldn't trust them but he didn't care. He wanted to find this interesting murderer.

"John, there is nothing I can see. Do you want to check it?" Wayne asked.

"There is nothing to check.. Huh!" John stopped. He really did check before and didn't find anything worth anything except this time he found an interesting thing. There was a loss of blood in his body. The puncture wounds did bleed but this loss of blood was special.

There was no life force in it. He had checked all the blood loss that had happened before in the crime scene. But a good portion of the blood wasn't in the crime scene.

"Queen, did you check the total amount of blood loss?" John asked.

"Blood loss? Why? There was blood on his bed but we didn't check the total amount."

"Please check it. I am sure you will find there is missing amount of blood." John said with certainty as he checked everything with his 'eyes' again. Wayne who heard this stopped investigating and asked John

"Vampires?"

"Vampires tend to suck blood from their necks. Such a wide mouth will be a first. And if this is a vampire, he or she must be really powerful to be able to get away from my eyes yesterday. It has to be Dracula or a being of that same order." John said as he searched the Earth of Dracula.

John interestingly was able to find Blade and many vampires but no Dracula in the scene. (please don't kill me if Dracula emerges during the Blade movie that is coming)

"So a vampire is one of the suspects.. Any other suspects you have in mind?" Wayne asked.

"For now no. I just searched for Dracula or Morbius. There is none on Earth. So it's either Dracula is in bed with Chthon or in a dimension where I can't find him." John said as he remembered that the power of vampires originated from Chthon's powers and of course the famous Darkhold.

Queen and Suri, who had been silent all this time, ran to the laboratory to check what John said was right. After doing intensive checking around the crime scene and the body of his brother, she found out that a large portion of his blood was missing.

This surprised them. Because such an amount of blood shouldn't have just vanished with no other cuts from his body. It was as if his blood vanished with the stab wound on his chest. Suri came back with her mother after half an hour

"Was I right?" John asked.

"How did you know this? Tell me the truth please. I beg you." Queen said as she begged John and Wayne with folded hands. John went and stopped this gesture by her.

"I know this for another reason. But we have a head start and we do have a suspect. It's just we didn't find him yet. He isn't on this Earth or rather he isn't even in this universe."

"Not this universe? You mean another universe? He didn't have enmity with any other being. Why will someone from another universe kill him? This doesn't make sense." The Queen said. Suri too who heard it couldn't believe that his brother will have enemies from another universe.

"I am not sure but I will..." As John was going to give the family a consolation his phone rang. He picked it up as this call was from Parker.

"Umm Sir.. Can you come to Teen Titans headquarters? We have a very weird situation here."

"Weird situation?" John paused for a second before checking what was going on at the Teen Titans Tower.

And what he saw made his eyes wide. This was a whole new turn of events.
