Clash of Realms
CHP12: Audrey Aensland Wayne

He had packed up necessary belongings and clothing as he knew the trip would be an extended one. With him were Damian, Alfred and Morrigan all there to see him off and he carried two duffle bags over his shoulder with a single bat suit and utility belt among his belongings in case a situation called for it.
"Master Grayson and Timothy have sworn to help look after things in your absence. So you needn't worry about things here," Alfred smiled.
Missions and what not had taken him away from the city for longer periods than this so it wasn't an issue.
"Thanks Alfred, I'll try and make it back soon as possible," Bruce moved passed his surrogate father as he ran a hand through Damian's hair. "Taking this trip is a lot easier knowing Gotham will be in great hands."
"Ttt," Damian crossed his arms. "I don't need the help of Grayson and especially not Drake!"
Bruce only smirked as he bypassed his son and stopped in front of Selene.
"Where's Diana?"
"Already on the island, I've taken her there as she wanted to get a head start on exploring the environment," the vampire responded.
"I see," Bruce nodded.
He sided with her as they got ready for departure but then he was pulled back by Morrigan who embraced him tightly and kissed at his cheek.
"Hope all goes well and good luck," the succubus followed up by purring into his left ear. "I burn to try out the new you."
She bit and sucked at his earlobe and Selene noticed and softly chortled. Afterwards Bruce stepped away and again sided with the purple haired vampire as they disappeared. Not a moment later they reappeared over a beach front and the sky an apple red with an immense castle in front of them.
"Welcome to the island of Alvasleha, follow me this way."
Taking the lead she led them across the sand and up a long flight of stairs where they eventually made their way inside and were greeted by vampire maids and warriors of different monster species, hired by Selene for this exact occasion but there was also another awaiting them.
"Diana," Bruce made eye contact with the princess. "Thanks for the arrangement... I mean with Sasha. I hope it wasn't too much trouble."
"Of course not, and if it helps Wonder Girl has agreed to look over her during her stay on Themyscira until we return and I've permitted visits by Kal or any of the league. So rest assured, if anything goes wrong you and I will know."
Hearing this mentally eased him and he wasn't sure what he would have done without her or his family and teammates for that matter. Selene looked to two of her maidens as she pointed towards the steps.
"Show our guest to his room," Selene commanded before her eyes fell over him. "Rest up awhile and then we shall get started."

It was at the front doors to the kingdom of Hiklorhan's capital that the guards recognized her as the queen's daughter and so they allowed her to pass. The silver haired vampire received various stares as she passed through the central lobby before taking to a staircase and it was at the top floor she went but she wasn't alone as both Ruby and Tsukune were at her side. Together they approached and stood in front of Akasha's office but a meeting was underway and so they waited around for nearly twenty minutes as they waited for the conclusion of it.
One after another members to the vampire council all trotted out as the three of them made their way inside and Akasha remained seated and with a stack of papers in front of her. None had any idea of the subject matter or what was said during the gathering, but clearly the Dark Lord appeared tenser than she normally did. But even with her eyes on the stacks in front of her, Akasha sensed the presence of them and with a leer she gazed up at the three.
"Ruby, Tsukune and Moka," she pushed the papers aside. "Isn't this just the greatest surprise!"
The vampire pushed out of the chair and dressed in her black Victorian styled dress as she walked around the table and greeted them all. She hugged and embraced each as they shared a brief loving moment and this brightened what otherwise was a long day of back and forth arguments in the congregation.
"What compelled you all to come here of all places?" Akasha smiled at them just before shaking her head. "Never mind, it doesn't matter I'm just glad that you're here. Today was so up and down, it's what you could say was a follow up to the broader realm meeting of the global powers. I simply relayed material touched on from that gathering and some of the changes possibly coming and of course not everyone was on board. I will do what I need to protect and make certain the foundation of we vampires stays secure while constituting something that builds a better working relationship with other kingdoms."
The three of them could only imagine what sort of responsibilities fell on the shoulders of the Dark Lord and the emperor himself for that matter.
"Has there been any further word on Sasha?" Ruby voiced with concern.
Akasha lowered her head and bit back.
"Nothing... unfortunately, but I believe that demented Jitoshi has something to do with her desertion!"
Tsukune gulped biting down over his tongue.
"What makes you say that," he expressed. "Isn't he still locked up?"
"Yes," Akasha nodded. "But I find it quite convenient with the timing of her vanishing. She had just spoken with him that same night, sneaking past my lookouts and making her way to his holding cell. I fear he might have told her things and she..."
"Returned to where she'd been for all these years," Moka posed in stepping forward. "And I realize we have not yet confirmed where that may be. And I just have the strangest feeling it might be Fairy Tale, but if so why would she return to a place like that. I didn't personally talk to her about the past but she did bring up once or twice how things were so much better in her life now."
"Perhaps," the Dark Lord agreed with the nod of her head. "But it is all she truly knew most her life spent with whoever was..."
"That's madness, she wouldn't and you can't believe that," Ruby cut in. "That child loves her family and you've said on more than one occasion that she was much happier. Has anyone thought of the obvious?" the witch stepped back gazing at them all. "You said that Sasha cherishes her father didn't you, or at least that's what you've told me, Tsukune."
This very notion left the three of them voiceless and without anything to add. Akasha had especially taken these words into contemplation as she thought back to the very night Sasha went missing and what she had said. The child had wined and complained about wanting to go home to her father.
"Oh my," the Dark Lord pondered this further before exhaling and shaking her head. "Father did a sweep of the human world, primarily Gotham and I have to assume that is the very first place he would have gone."
"But do you know for sure?" Ruby countered.
"If that is where she'd taken off we would have found her almost immediately. I have to believe she took off on her own accordance, there's no way she could have just been swept from under my feet like that, my castle and just taken. But if someone is responsible for her disappearance and I discover who I'll strangle the life out of them with my own two hands!"
The anger and exasperation poured out of the Dark Lord as she stood with clinched fists. Moka was equally as aggravated as it seemed she thought about her young sister at least every other hour of every day since she went missing. More than that she just wanted to know if Sasha was okay, but Moka understood that wasn't the reason they made the trip to the vampire capital. And so with a deep breath the silver haired vampire straightened her posture as she looked to Akasha.
"There's actually a reason we're here, something that you need to know."
Akasha became somewhat uneasy by how each of them looked at her.
"It... it's about him, Colton," Moka exhaled closing her eyes and shook her head. "And I'm out of line for saying or even suggesting this but... you should really reconsider your relationship with Orsic."
"Excuse me?!" Akasha snapped, causing Ruby to quiver and the bodies of Tsukune and Moka to tighten.
"But, but you haven't even heard what Moka or I have to say, and what we saw," the witch added.
"You saw nothing!" Akasha snarled turning her back to them in a dismissive manner.
Moka couldn't believe her ears and nor could Tsukune.
"I love and respect you mother, but you need to listen to what I have to say and you will!" Moka unintentionally raised her voice, not at all pleased with Akasha's tone or the Dark Lord turning her back on them. "That man isn't who you think he is, I walked in on him making out with another woman and it was anything but playful."
"I can confirm," Ruby stepped forward. "Later that same evening during the event I too stumbled upon him and with a separate woman to the one Moka spotted him with. They were engaged in crude sexual doings that I'd rather not specify."
But even as she managed to get these words out, Ruby's cheeks turned a bright red as she rehashed every small detail of what she saw and became ignited. Tsukune was the only one that noticed the change in her demeanor and body language as her legs rubbed together. The male vampire lightly bit over his lower lip as it appeared she was daydreaming, but he didn't know of what. Akasha quietly growled under her breath before slowly turning and facing them.
"And did either of you confront this individual who was allegedly Colton?" Akasha gazed over them with crossed arms.
Moka's mouth dropped open, staggered by the way her mother was looking down on and treating them like children, while Tsukune shared this exact sentiment.
"No," both Ruby and Moka answered at once.
"Then it is as I said," Akasha frowned. "The man you saw wasn't Colton Orsic, but someone else. Perhaps a look alike, there are many of those around."
"Mother are you serious?!" Moka retorted. "Are you really going to stand there and call us liars, you can't love this man so much that you turn to blind eye and become delusional. Father has his faults which includes his love for other women, but at least you wouldn't have to worry about him making a fool of himself in public nor would he need your protection. You don't have to go through the process of suitors if you and father were to..."
"I will hear no more!" Akasha shouted as she stomped at the ground and her demonic aura raising. "Your father and I are done, never to happen again! He did things... unforgiveable things that I could never get past. Colton will become my mate and the king to my throne whether any of you like it or not!"
This affirmation silenced the room and it was Moka that stood with clutched fists as she wanted to lash out at her mother but knew that wouldn't do her any good and so she restrained from doing so.
"If that is all, then you're all free to go."
There wasn't movement right away but Tsukune was the first to break the silence.
"Akasha-san, do you really not believe what they've said? You should know Moka-san would never lie to you and though I didn't see any of this for myself the two of them did and they're trust worthy. There's a reason I took your daughter's hand in marriage and appointed Ruby-san my head assistant."
Akasha again turned her back on the group running a hand over the table as she rolled her eyes.
"Out, all of you. Get out, now!"
Ruby almost jumped out of her boots by the way the vampire raised her voice while both Moka and Tsukune were astounded by this outburst of hers and the way she defended Orsic. As they went for the exit, Moka stopped short of the door as she didn't want to leave things like that but she had nothing and so the vampire just continued on and through the door behind Ruby. Once the door had closed, Akasha took a seat at the head of the table and running a hand over her forehead as she shook her head. For the next minute she quietly deliberated as to what she should do before returning to the stacks of papers in front of her.

Even as she stood there and watched him go to work inside the training facility, Selene Kayeda couldn't believe some of the results over the charts. He was giving off readings very irregular and she wasn't alone as Wonder Woman stood close by, having just entered. The vampire was dressed in mostly gray and taking various notes as she watched Bruce and smirked, impressed with the steps and improvements he was making in such a short time.
"How's he doing?" the amazon princess sided with her.
"Superb, so much more impressive than I was expecting! His readings are off the charts for a turned vampire this early on in the process. For starters when I tested his strength earlier and he maxed out just over sixteen tons! That is unheard of for a newly turned vampire, most at this point fall under the five through eight tone range but this man is something else. And he has yet to learn aura control or awaken the blood of the shinso coursing through his veins! But I do however believe I've discovered why."
With vast interest Diana Prince moved in beside her.
"Enlighten me."
"His very being, this human is truly incredible," Selene immediately bit at her tongue before coughing and clearing her throat. "I mean was human. However it is because of what he did as a human that has propelled his vast base strength. Bruce peaked and conditioned himself to his body's limits and beyond in both physical and cardio endurance... I've never seen anything quite like it. He puts to shame some of man's professional athletes. And take a look at him now."
Selene leaned forward as Diana did the same, looking into the training facility where Bruce dodged around catching arrows firing off at him from different walls throughout the facility, all zipping at 1.5 times the speed of a bullet as he so gracefully eluded or caught them with precision and concentration simultaneously dealing with the next and then the next.
"He truly is a prodigy unlike any I've seen before," Selene jumped up, feeling like a little girl in the candy store. As a medic and expert on so many diverse monster species, she dreamed for moments such as this studying specimens of each individual type. "He could very well be one for the ages, I look forward to seeing how far I can push him."
The vampire laughed and from Wonder Woman's standpoint it was clear this woman was enjoying this a lot, but even she couldn't help but smile. The amazon princess knew Bruce a whole lot more than others and the way he pushed himself, and believed he'd be able to handle anything she threw his way.
"Oh yes I forgot to mention one important detail," Selene looked to Diana from the corner of her eye. "Your relationship with this man, it is strictly professional is it not?"
Diana was blindsided by this question as she stepped back.
"Excuse me?"
"I only ask because of a possible side effect he might sustain," Selene's eyes returned to the activity inside the training room. "Newly turned vampires sometimes experience periods of blood lust and thirst for battle which they must learn to take control of, but that isn't all... his sex drive will have increased as well. I've dealt with only twenty over my time, as most attempts have resulted in the subject reverting to that of a ghoul. And in his case these symptoms have a higher probability as he didn't use a holy lock early on to slow up the process of his turning, which would have given his body the necessary means to better adjust to these changes inside himself with fewer complications. The urges are unbearable and the newly turned will pursue a subject of interest to satisfy these urges and sometimes he or she can completely lose themselves. Luckily this is only something that occurs in the first nine months of one being turned, and it isn't a given that it ensues with him. But if such a moment occurs you must not allow him any of your blood directly, as he might lose himself further. Alert me immediately if he shows signs having to do with any of those things. Just thought I'd give you a heads up in case it comes to that and he starts behaving strangely towards you."
Wonder Woman exhaled as she nodded her head.
"Thanks for that, but it won't be an issue he."
Selene simply smiled as she ended the training session in the click of a button and again looked to Diana.
"Shall we?" she walked toward the door.
Wonder Woman followed as Selene entered the room to a shirtless Bruce looking to both women and Selene applauding him.
"Very good mister Wayne. I remember the days when Akasha-sama put myself, Lailay and Miukei through this exact drill and how it took us months to accomplish anything near what you did. Having the speed and strength of a vampire is one thing, but knowing how to control and balance it is key and I must say you've got quite the handling and poise of your own body. Your reaction speed impresses me most and it's clear you've been trained in the art of combining both body, mind, spirit and soul. I can see it in the way you move so naturally and the calming focus in your eyes," Selene smirked. "Akasha-sama wasn't lying when she told us you were forged like a fundamental weapon of destruction, and you've got one of the sharpest minds in the world to boot."
Bruce chortled, having not even broken a sweat.
"What else did she tell you about me?" Bruce grinned.
It was then Selene's turn to laugh as she blushed and looked him off.
"Believe me, she's carried on about other things as well."
Together they laughed and Diana joined them as she quickly caught on, and afterwards Selene became serious once more.
"I'd like to start going through the basics of detection."
"Detection?" Bruce inquired.
"Yes," Selene nodded. "You must learn to detect yokai, as this will become crucial against opponents of stealth or great speed. With your experience in spiritual connection to your body I imagine you'll get through this much faster than others. And following that I shall begin teaching you aura control and how to use it to vastly increase your physical abilities and strength. But not until after lunch, I've had my maidens cook up something nice that I know the two of you will enjoy."
There were no arguments as they followed Selene through the exit. It was halfway down the hall that Bruce sided with Selene, coughing and clearing his throat as he had something on mind that he'd been thinking about and wanted to get off his chest.
"There's something I've been meaning to ask," he spoke with his hands inside his pockets. "It's about something Sasha told me, Jitoshi Ichiro. She says he's been captured and will soon be executed. Is this true?"
"It is," the female vampire simply nodded. "He's being held in the capital of Hiklorhan as of now, but he and a select few others imprisoned in the prime kingdoms will be relocated once an execution date is set to the town of Meltaw. Those that have committed the worst of crimes, aimed at the entire realm or its ruler are always taken there."
Bruce scratched at his chin somewhat as he quietly thought to himself.
"Would you be capable of gathering any and all information?"
Selene snickered as she eyed him from the corner of her eye.
"Why the sudden interest in Jitoshi, the man who abducted your offspring. Isn't it satisfying enough that he's caught?"
"Can you get the information?" Bruce maintained his stance.
"Who do you think I am," she smiled. "I'm Selene Kayeda of the Asagao three, and sword to Akasha Bloodriver... of course I can. I don't see the purpose, but if that is your wish then I shall have one of my maidens fetch this information from headquarters and relay me a full classification."
"Good, that's a start," Bruce replied.
"A start to what?" Diana chimed in.
Both ladies were interested in his answer but got nothing as he stayed quiet and they entered through the double doors of the lounge.

Those standing guard in front of the residence bowed their heads as the queen of vampires made her way up the steps and through the front doors of the mansion. The first place she looked was inside his study and when he wasn't there she headed for the next obvious place. It was on her way up the steps that the vampire picked up on noises that no doubt belonged to him but that of a woman as well. The moans and rumbles became louder the closer she came and without effort the Dark Lord forced it open and on her back with her legs spread was a female vampire and Colton atop her.
The woman cried and moaned as he made love to her, the vampiress even scratching and clawing at his back with her fingernails but they weren't alone as another woman laid naked beneath the sheets and smoking a cigarette.
"Do you have a minute?" Akasha called out to him with crossed arms.
Colton only partially gazed back at her as he kept his hips moving and the woman's arms wrapped around his neck.
"Can it wait?" he looked the Dark Lord off as his eyes returned to that of his lover beneath him.
"No," Akasha said with clear protest in her tone.
She was being patient with him and he knew it and so Colton slowed up and removed himself from the woman beneath him, but the blankets covering most of what was below their waists. Orsic sat and faced her with his back against the headboard and the woman with a hard blush over her face.
"Hello princess," the vampire bowed her head as the other woman did the same.
Akasha only slightly nodded her head giving them a single instant of acknowledgement as her full attention was on Colton. The discussion was one that she hoped to end promptly and so she didn't care whether or not the two vampire mistresses stayed or left.
"My daughter came to me," Akasha exhaled. "You really need to keep your sexual conducts out of public view, especially at big events such as that. I covered up for you this time, but this is your one and only free pass. I will not risk or put the relationship with my daughter on the line to conceal your endeavors. Do remember who I am and the reputation I wish to carry and I will have no one tainting that image, even if that person is my husband to be."
Colton cursed under his breath punching at the blanket as his eyes fell over the carpet and he was frozen like that for a while before looking up at her.
"I'm sorry about that," his teeth gritted. "I'll be more careful, I know how much that girl and your position mean to you as it does to me. Both you and I together will do great things for not only the kingdom of Hiklorhan but the entire realm. And with your father backing us, there is nothing or no one that could stand in our way. But as I said before, sorry about the inconvenience."
The fact that she had to cover up for him and of all people deny Moka's claim really stabbed at Akasha's inner soul, but she kept her calm.
"Oh and before I go I'll let you in on a little something," Akasha spoke with the intent to change the subject. "I'll be appointing Issa Shuzen as Supreme Commander of the vampire army, as his battle genius and experience on and off the battle field more than qualify him for the position. And I trust him... at least with this. I have yet to speak with him on the matter, but I have no doubts that he'll accept."
"Your ex?" Colton inquired.
"Yes, is there a problem? I won't allow my past relationship with him to stop me from making decisions that are in the best interest of this kingdom and I've appointed Ekon Bakari as my senior advisor, so aside from the Asagao three he will work closes with me in making the tough decisions that need to be made going forward. He's older than I and more..."
"I know who he is," Colton smirked. "Ekon is a good friend of father's, they go way back."
"I'm quite aware of this," Akasha nodded. "It was in fact the global meeting your father held centuries ago that I met with Ekon and that was also the same night you and I met."
In nodding his head Colton stretched as he sat forward with his arms behind him.
"Okay, but I don't see why you're telling me all this and now of all times."
"You're my mate to be and though the responsibilities of the throne fall squarely on my shoulders, you'll be included in the decision making process and staying up to date on political matters in and out of our kingdom. I am queen of vampires, and a Dark Lord and princess to this entire realm. But I've clearly exhausted my stay here, you may now continue whatever it was you were before my arrival."
Akashsa immediately headed for the exit but slowed up as a single of the female vampires called out to her.
"Princess," the woman sat up on her knees with her breasts exposed. "May I make a request?"
The Dark Lord gazed down upon her with questioning eyes but still managed a smile.
"How can I be of service?"
The woman laughed as she twirled a strand of hair on the left side of her face.
"Would you ah... care to join us? It would be a privilege to share a bed with our queen and while Colt does you from behind, Sophy and I could play with you a little. You would enjoy it and if nothing else it would dismiss stress and I know a woman of your position with so much expected of you carries a lot of that."
Akasha blushed with her eyes in front of her as she again went for the exit.
"Sorry, but Colton and I agreed to wait until after we're husband and wife. You ladies have a good day."
The the vampiress pulled Colton back down and atop her as they embraced in a sizzling kiss as Akasha disappeared through the door. It was only halfway down the hall that she truly realized something and the thought almost alarmed her. She walked in on the man who was soon to be her mate with two other women and she felt nothing. This very feeling further solidified what she already knew and that truth known by only one person. Stumbling upon the three of them like that did however get her sexually provoked but not in the way it should have as her thoughts and desires were directed at someone else; the human and father of her second child.

It was the moment they had been waiting for, overflowed with emotions as they entered the locker rooms and quickly undressed out of their armor and gear before advancing to the waiting area just outside the king and queen's throne room. It was there that the five battle royal contestants received constraints around both their ankles and wrists. Luke and Dinah were called in at the same time and were second in line as the doors were closed behind them. Dinah halfway expected they'd be accompanied by a huge crowd but surprisingly enough it was only two guards standing on either side of the throne chairs to both Queen Avis Hayhurst and King Delbert Hayhurst.
"Remove the restraints," Delbert leaned forward.
A third guard appeared from a corner of the room and did exactly this, detaching the chains from both prisoners as he stepped aside and Delbert smiled the entire time before falling back in his chair.
"As with the other lucky three, the two of you put on quite a show today and your efforts and talent are to be commended as you not only kept all of Vindellorien captivated but other visiting nobles to the battle royal affair. And I'm a man of my word," Delbert sighed as he took a deep breath. "However the circumstance of you two is quite peculiar. Humans in the realm of monsters is outrageous on its own and then there's where the lot of you were picked up, during the slaughtering's of that convict Ilon Kreing. The story of how you came to this realm has yet to be confirmed and believe me, we shall uncover the truth of this."
"And so we won't be freed?!" Dinah marched forward.
"Silence woman!" the queen retorted as Canary bit back. "You were not asked to speak!"
"Avis, Avis," Delbert waved the queen off as he shook his head. "It is fine, these two are no longer prisoners."
Both Luke and Dinah breathed a sigh of relief at this, but knew there was more and so they kept quiet and listened.
"The norm amongst most kingdoms and villages has been to dispose of any human that appears in this realm, no exceptions. But we're however very generous people and such extreme actions are unnecessary, and our great emperor in his return shares this exact mindset. Once our investigation concludes and we confirm without a shadow of doubt you aren't correlating with the criminal ogre and your being here is as you say then you shall be returned to your world. But for now that'll be postponed. And you're probably wondering what this means for you now, yes?"
The two simply nodded as Delbert continued on.
"Until we can sort out this whole mess, the two of you will serve as an extra set of hands around the palace. Which might include running errands and things of that nature. I might consider assigning either or both of you to Prince Arlo, or my second daughter, Isla. Speaking of which, the lieutenant general has expressed interest in you lad," King Delbert looked directly at Luke Fox.
His eyes then fell on Dinah who at that moment was also glimpsing at Luke as she contemplated what sort of interest Isla could possibly have with Luke. But freed as they may be it didn't appear they were in any position to ask questions.
"I shall determine your roles for the foreseeable future until the investigations conclude, but do keep in mind you'll both be asked to do a whole lot more aside from these positions and nothing is permanent. What you're asked to do today or tomorrow could be very different in the future. Once we're done here Rafy will escort you both to your new living spaces and you'll find it to be quite the improvement to the cells you were subjected to early on."
And for the next twenty minutes Dinah and Luke listened to king Delbert go on and on but they were without questions. Following his long speech they were guided out of the throne room and just as he said, taken to what would be their living space for the conceivable future, but on separate floors to one another. Though technically still prisoners, they would be living it a whole lot better and this couldn't be more apparent as Dinah stepped into what would be her new room.
"Wow..."
Those were the only words she managed to get out just before running and tossing herself into the king-size bed surrounded by so many silky pillows. It was relaxing and if nothing else she'd at least sleep peacefully, something she hadn't had in months. Luke's feelings were similar as he surveyed his room, running a hand over the dresser beside the bed but then a knock at the door diverted his attention.
"Come in," he answered.
There was no response and nor did anyone enter and so he pushed open the door himself moving out into the hall but there was no one as he walked halfway down the hall, before shrugging his shoulders and returning to his room. Just as he walked through the door slammed shut behind him.
"Hello Luke," she smiled at him while he stumbled back.
He remembered this woman all too well and their last meeting and how she downed his blood leaving him drowsy and lightheaded. The vampire slowly walked towards him and the look in her eyes sent a raid of energy up his spine as she licked at her lips.
"Don't tell me… what do you want?" Luke moved back with his hands out in front of him.
Miukei snickered with a finger to her lips, enjoying every bit the intimidated expression he gave off.
"I want another taste of your blood," She clasped her hands together. "I've been longing for it ever since the last time."
Luke sought to retort but it was already too late as the vampire leaped pinning him down over the bed and biting into the right side of his neck as she merrily consumed his blood while Luke showed little to no resistance as she took what she wanted and sat atop him with a gratified smirk afterwards.
"So obedient," she let out a sigh. "This is going to be so much easier sneaking a bite here and there now that you're no longer a prisoner. Until next time."
She smiled at him as she ran a hand over the side of his face before popping up and running off through the door with new found energy. Slowly pushing up Luke rested a hand over his head feeling somewhat dazed as he shook his head. The only thing he could think about and be hopeful for was a speedy investigation and conclusion proving his and Dinah's innocents.
Days later
A bright light shaped over the JL teleport platform and materializing was one of its members in the form of Cyborg who vaulted off and to the ground where he then headed through the automatic doors and in route to the maintenance room but heard voices in the opposite direction which rerouted him. It was into the conference room where he stepped through and inside was Arthur Curry/Aquaman, the Flash and Superman.
"Is there a meeting I wasn't informed of?" Cyborg made his way toward the table but Superman had his back to them and staring out the massive windows overlooking earth. "Where's everyone else?"
"This isn't a meeting," Aquaman sat in his usual spot with his hands folded over the table. "We were just having a discussion concerning the current predicament. I've been occupied with other matters in Atlantis as of recent, election month just passed and... yeah I don't plan on getting into all that."
The Flash slid a small device across the table which settled in front of Cyborg.
"Something is up and it isn't good. Both Killer Frost and Metallo were broken out of their cells at Stryker's island, by these unknown figures dressed in gray and white with the help of Captain Cold and Mirror Master. And in Gotham something similar occurred with Clayface a week or so before that. On hindsight you don't think much of it, but take a close look of the photo on screen."
Victor didn't like the sound of that but took a look at the screen as he suggested.
"What am I supposed to see?"
"The woman," Superman spoke. "That shot is from the night of Karlo Basil's breakout and that woman dressed in the black cheongsam is Akua Shuzen and the one in white beside her is Kahlua Shuzen. Both are members to Fairy Tale and we have reason to believe they're behind the break ins and collecting the magical pieces and if true..."
"They might be recruiting enemies of the Justice League!" Cyborg's eyes stretched. "Then whatever their planning must be huge and they don't want us getting in the way. Who all knows about this?"
"Only a select few," Aquaman said.
"And what about the girl?" Cyborg voiced. "Or Batman, I thought we..."
"Sasha is on Themyscira," Superman voiced, but with his eyes still over earth. "And Diana took off with Batman to some hidden island with the likes of Selene Kayeda. Her goal is to teach and direct Batman through the many changes his body is going through and I've put my trust in her, as should we all. Neither he nor Diana knows about this latest finding, but that should be the least of their worries. We'll need Batman at his best, focused and ready to go and right now that isn't the case."
Superman stepped away from the glass window setting his eyes on everyone that stood inside the conference room.
"Kara agreed to do bye daily check-ups on Sasha so we'll have constant updates and Diana has been a huge help through this all," Kal settled a hand over the table top. "The watchtower isn't a place for children and Themyscira is a much better surrounding and environment for that child. It's only temporary until his training ends and then he'll come up with a permanent solution, but in the meantime I'll need to hold the tides at bay."
"Hold the tides?" Cyborg questioned.
The kryptonian looked his teammate in the face.
"I plan to meet with Apollo, the yokai emperor. We have his granddaughter and I'm sure by now it irks him, or the mother of that child if she's been told. My intentions aren't to reveal any of what's happened since that night, I simply wish to ease the tension. I don't know yet if I'll bring to light Fairy Tale's possible enlistment of our enemies until we've confirmed Fairy Tale is the ones behind these recent crimes."
"You sure that's a good idea?" Cyborg responded. "What would you even say to him?"
"Haven't gotten that far," Superman answered honestly with the shake of his head. "But something down the lines of we've got Sasha and she's being taken care of. Communication is important. For all we know he could be planning an attack to take the girl back which wouldn't surprise me from Batman's report and this man when it comes to his family."
"It's not like he could get to her, even if he wanted to. But again, somebody refresh my memory... why is it we're keeping her away from them, him?"
Superman opened his mouth to reply but the Flash had beaten him to it.
"So apparently they've got this rule in place with vampires, essentially stating if one is to infect and turn a human that said human is to be eliminated on the spot to avoid the subject morphing into a ghoul or vampire. As for the vampire responsible for the action, their penalty is also death," the Flash noted. "So yeah if you listen to or believe any of that, this monster emperor will be after the heads of both Batman and..."
"Apollo won't hurt Sasha, I feel confident about that," Superman interjected. "I'd however like to err on the side of caution. It's Batman I'm worried about. He didn't revert into a ghoul but there's nothing we've gathered thus far that says Apollo or some hired hand won't come after his life. I'll keep the whereabouts and the outcome of Batman's fate a secret for now until I know more."
Cyborg nodded and saw more clearly why a meet with the yokai emperor was necessary and aside from the whole Batman fiasco there was the whole magic piece collections which was almost certainly a nemesis to both sides.
"How will you go about reaching this man?" Aquaman asked.
"Easy," Superman smiled. "Aono Moka and Tsukune. Inside Batman's forwarded information to myself is a home address to the newlyweds who reside in Japan. From what I've been told they spend an equal amount of time in both worlds so perhaps I'll get lucky."
"When?" Cyborg asked.
"Within the hour."
Victor looked Kal-El over closely.
"Good," he cracked his knuckles. "Count me in."

With more than a handful of bags in hand, the taxi pulled up in front of her apartment complex as the driver walked around opening the door for her. He offered to help carry the bags but she kindly declined and headed for the door on her own. Though her hands were full she managed to unlock and kick open the door as the shopping bags were tossed over the sofa as she stretched out her arms and smiled. There wasn't anyone around to rate each outfit, but she wouldn't enjoy any less trying them on.
With this belief it was then that the cat woman came to mind and they hadn't spoken since nights ago and Morrigan sleeping with her crush. She had since phoned Felicia quite a few times but none of those calls returned and it was obvious she was still sour from what happened and the succubus understood, especially coming from her.
"Morrigan," a voice called out to her appearing from behind a corner of the room as she jumped up from being startled.
"Lucien!" her eyes volleyed. "What in the world are you doing here?!"
The individual bowed to his queen just as quickly looking her in the eyes.
"I'm so very sorry for coming here unannounced my queen, I really am but... but you're needed back in Makai. Something urgent has come up and there is nothing I or anyone else can do to..."
"What happened?! Is Makai under attack?!" Morrigan marched forward.
Lucien bit back as he looked to the ground and silently quivered.
"Nothing like that, it's her... the girl."
Morrigan nibbled at her tongue feeling her heart impede and everything around her freezing and Lucien inspected her expression knowing that he needed to clarify himself.
"She's taken over, my queen," Lucien grimaced. "There's nothing any of us can do to stop her. The little one is cunning beyond her years and all that studying during her upbringing you could say has backfired. In your absence she has settled into the throne and taken up the duties as ruler of Makai, and I mean all duties."
In taking a couple deep breathes and closing her eyes Morrigan thought things over before focusing her eyes back on her attendant.
"Let me get this straight," she spoke with clear annoyance in her tone. "You had one job and one job only... to look after her and now you're telling me you can't handle a seven year old girl?!"
It was his turn to take a step back, Lucien gulping but maintained his composure.
"My queen but you don't understand, with you vacant from the realm the duties of queen by default fall on her shoulders," it was then that Lucien stepped forward with a massive book held out in front of her as he flipped through several pages. "See it's right here in the small print which clearly states that if the ruler, which in your case is unavailable or deceased then responsibility of leading the realm falls on the heir to the throne. The child is aspiring and well informed and she understands the rules and has taken full advantage. There is nothing in Makai law clarifying an age and she also knows this and has taken control of your entire council and as we speak she has commanded a board meeting to take place any minute from now."
Morrigan's laughed in frustration as she cursed beneath her breath.
"Has she revealed herself to any of the other royals?!"
"No my queen, which is why I've come here as I fear that might befall soon. She's been at this for weeks, but we tolerated it as she hadn't requested anything out of the norm but now things are getting out of hand."
"Damn that child," Morrigan laughed again out of surprise and distress as she threw her hair back. "Then it is good you showed up when you did, let us return to the castle so I may put an end to this uproar."
Lucien breathed a sigh of relief as he created a portal in the middle of the room.
"After you, my lady."
Bats formed around Morrigan's body as she undressed out of her casual attire and into her typical wear as she was first through the vortex and then Lucien close behind. They were out and on the other side in a matter of seconds and walking down a hall and Morrigan did so with conviction in every step taken as she allowed Lucien to lead the way. And shortly after he pushed his way into the conference room and at the head of the table was the young lady herself clear across the room. She had long green hair, darker in shade to Morrigan's, marine blue colored eyes and her hair tied in two tails. Lastly she wore a black and purple robe.
"Luicien, took yah long enough," she slapped her hand over the table top. "We were gonna start without you, now sit so we may commence!"
He only took another two steps as his eyes never broke away from the child's.
"You deaf, I said sit!"
Lucien only smiled as he stepped aside as another entered the room behind him and everyone inside the room breathed a sigh of relief, except of course the girl sitting at the head of the table who felt a stab at her very soul just by staring into the eyes of Makai's true ruler. This stare down lasted for only a moment as the child jumped from her seat in terror!
"Uh oh..."
The child succubus quickly sprouted her wings and took off through the nearest window which had been left open for the sake of letting in some air. Morrigan did the same as she sprouted her wings and followed after the child through the opening.
"Audrey Aensland!" Morrigan shouted as they flew upward and atop the castle. "Get over here immediately, young lady!"
The succubi was much too frightened to abide but she didn't have near the speed of the queen and so she was quickly plucked out of the sky and driven into the roof as Morrigan ended up atop her. There was no point in trying to fight her off and Audrey knew this and so she just laid there, brooding and pouting. This did nothing to rid Morrigan of her death stare and so the child resulted to crying as the queen eased up her hold over the girl.
"I... I just wanted to make you proud mother, that's all and had it not been for mister Lucien tada telling I would have done lots."
Morrigan stared down at the sobbing child as she wanted to be angry with her, but she couldn't and it didn't help that they'd been away from each other for so long. All she could think about was how much she loved her daughter and so she lifted her up.
"Oh my sweet Audrey," Morrigan held her tightly. "You're still so young, ruling a kingdom should be the last thing on your mind. You still have much to see and learn before such a day emerges, but it would appear you're far too smart for your own good. But this will never happen again and I shall see to that... in writing."
"Mother, no!"
Audrey gazed up at her with begging eyes but Morrigan wasn't having any of it.
"On a brighter note I saw him again," Morrigan smiled down on her daughter. "Your father, Bruce Wayne. And he's been through some extraordinary changes. You're just as much a Wayne as you are an Aensland."
"Really, and when do I see him?! I want to meet dad, do you think he'll like me?"
With a grin Morrigan sided with Audrey and one of her wings wrapped around her.
"Oh honey, he'll absolutely adore you and soon, but not yet. The time isn't right, but that isn't all," Morrigan's smile broadened. "Turns out you aren't an only child. You have a sister and older brother, Damian and Sasha."
"For reallz?!" Audrey halfway jumped into Morrigan's lap. "What are they like, please tell me mother I wanna know everything!"

It would take time before he got used to the changes and deep down he hoped it wouldn't come to that. All they wanted was the freedom to return to their home world so that things could go back to the way they were. Even with the changes Luke nor Dinah tried escaping, though there were much more opportunities as they had less supervision. By request of the lieutenant general of Vindellorien Luke and Dinah headed for the training grounds on the south side of the castle and it was there that she awaited them. Beside Isla was Cecily Hadlee, both holding a bow with stacks of arrows over the table.
"What with all this?" Dinah asked.
Isla responded by handing both a bow.
"With your new positions under the palace, it is crucial that you're proficient with the weapons we use. Luckily combat training is off the table, given you both greatly exceed the standard," Isla went soundless for an instant as she paced. "Granted, had it not been for these very skill sets of yours, neither of you would be in the positions that you are now."
It was a moment later that Dinah thought back to the conversation inside the throne room and King Delbert stating his daughter had interest in Fox but that was it, no explanation given. On hindsight it didn't appear to mean much, notably taking into account what he put on display inside the ring, but Dinah knew better. If it was truly about a matter of skill, she was Luke's clear superior in hand to hand combat and she hadn't forgotten about all the extra attention the elf general directed his way during their time as prisoners.
"How's about we get started," Isla looked to Cecily. "Why don't you kick things off for us."
"With pleasure, my lady."
She took a single arrow into her hand and took aim on a single of the many target setups in the open field. The elf pulled back and let the projectile fly and connected with the board perfectly, but she didn't stop there as she took another two shots and while one was flawless the other was slightly off target. Afterwards she stepped aside as Isla moved in just behind the table as she took a total of five arrows into her hands and without a seconds hesitation she fired off each simultaneously to each other and all five connecting perfectly with different target boards. She was anything but done as she completed this process over another two times with the same result, each of the projectiles connecting with its target.
"Wooohh!" Luke's eyes magnified, impressed by what she'd just done and with seemingly no struggle at all.
"We elves are regarded as the best archers in all of the yokai realm and you've just seen firsthand why," Isla smirked.
Dinah was also impressed but it wasn't anything she hadn't seen before with the Green Arrow and she knew he was easily one of, if not the best archer in the world of man. During the months that they'd been imprisoned, Oliver was one of the very few thoughts that gave her strength and kept her going.
"Now it's your turn," Isla lowered her bow. "Which of you would like to go first?"
"I shall," Dinah took the initiative stepping forward with a bow in hand.
She didn't have near the skill or precision of the Green Arrow, but it wouldn't be the first time she picked up a bow or used one for that matter. Her first shot missed the target to the left and her next to the right, but from there she slowly began improving as the arrows were at least connecting with the target boards. Luke soon joined her as he took hold of a couple arrows and took part in target practice alongside her. Unlike Dinah he was having a much more difficult time gaining any success, as this sort of thing was out of his area of expertise. Both Isla and Cecily observed the two of them and it was just about after his ninth shot that Isla quietly sighed moving up on Luke.
"Allow me to lend a hand," the elf said warmly positioning behind him with her chest pressed against his back. "You're dwindling on the very basics. Archery starts with your feet and legs, you must stand firm and from there it steers to your bow arm and hand. You must physically relax yourself. Bend your bow arm just enough to disengage the elbow and let your fingers hang naturally in an eased grip."
Luke felt goosebumps as her fingers trailed so softly over his arms as she helped in modifying his stance. By this point Dinah had lowered her bow and instead focused on the two of them.
"You must maintain a sharp focus on the target you want to hit. Your grip hand must stay eased until the arrow hits the target and do try and resist the tendency to drop your arm when you release the string. This has plagued your accuracy as I noticed."
The elf general entertained him with several other pointers before ultimately backing off and allowing him to try once more. He didn't take a shot right away as he first took a couple deep breathes taking an arrow in hand and taking aim. His first shot was a miss that sailed up high, but the next six which followed were much improved as four out of the six connected with their targets and he was applauded by both Cecily and Isla.
"Very good, you're already looking a whole lot better," Isla expressed as she then looked to Dinah. "As the two of you improve we shall then move onto moving targets where you shall compete against others in training."
Isla then stepped aside as she made eye contact with Cecily.
"Would you mind overseeing the remainder of this session, there is somewhere I must go, Arlo and I both."
"Of course my lady, you can count on me."
Isla candidly smiled at her subordinate before untying her horse from a nearby tree, leaping upward and giving them all one final glance before galloping off. From then Dinah and Luke went right back to work and the session prolonging just over an as they were then escorted back to the castle. Luke immediately headed for the showers and got cleaned up as Dinah did the same but in a isolated ladies facility. It was only about halfway through that Luke heard a loud thump and then a clicking sound, but didn't think much of it as he finished soaping and shampooing his body and in a matter of minutes he stepped out drying himself with a towel. His shoulders squeezed at a whistling sound as he quickly spun around and in a defensive stance, ready to guard himself.
"My, my, it isn't just your blood that's delicious," the woman revealed herself from out of a stall. "But a body exclusive to it and there is nothing like drinking a target's blood after a hot bath."
A woman approached him woman with brown/tan skin at 5'7, red eyes with slit pupils, light green hair. She wore a red tunic with her hair tied in two long pigtails with red bows and black boots with a necklace around her neck.
"Miukei! This is the men's room for a reason, no women?!"
"Ssssshhhh, quiet down," she moved up on him with a finger pressed over his lips. "Someone might hear us, and please do just call me Miyu... and you know why I'm here."
The vampire licked at her lips.
"Look, okay the first two times were something but what do I look like to you, food?! Sorry I'm not going to..."
Luke was hushed as she jumped forward biting into his neck yet again and sucked away! This was unbelievable but just as the previous two times he did nothing to stop her as he was too absorbed in the moment and her left leg elevated off the ground as she finished with absolute satisfaction.
"Such a banquet," the vampire smirked looking downward with a chuckle. "And here you were complaining, looks like somebody enjoys being fed on."
"Like hell!" Luke shot back.
"Oh really, then what's that?" Miukei laughed again flicking her finger against the bulge stemming from his towel. "Looks like you've got quite the bundle too, but I'm only interested in your blood human."
Luke bit back as he shielded the area with his hands and looked her in the face.
"Can you really just identify a species so easily just by feeding on his or her blood?"
"Not always, but no other species has quite the sweet and delicate flavor of a human," Miukei stepped forward with her lips just beside his ear. "I don't know how you ended up in our realm or as a prisoner to the elves, but such a circumstance should have been reported to the yokai emperor immediately. I would have done so myself, but then I wouldn't get to enjoy this blood of yours."
She snickered as she stepped back and headed toward the exit but stopped short of it and looked back at him.
"Oh and don't get any bright ideas, about this meaning anything other than what it is. You're simply a means of nourishing and nothing more... I'd never entertain the idea of laying with a human. Bye, bye now."
She smiled just before slamming the door shut and marching down the hall.
