CHP28: Two Missions Same Objective
Just finishing up supper and standing over a pot of soup, Alfred Pennyworth added a couple extra spices and peppers just before stirring the contents inside. He did so for a bit before taking a taste for himself and with a pleased smirk, it was marvelous. There wasn't much opportunity for him to savor it as the doorbell rang, and the butler wiping at his mouth with a nearby rag before stepping out of the kitchen. With his apron aside, Alfred stepped out of the area and to the front door. It was a large delivery that he signed off on, addressed to Bruce Wayne. Of course he hadn't any idea what was inside as he looked it over.
Whatever it was the two delivery men pushed it through over a cart on wheels and a couple and another two additional persons helped lift it off the cart and setting it in a corner. Afterwards they took off whilst Alfred closed the door behind them and went for the old clock in the next room unlocking it as he proceeded into the cave. It took but only a few steps as he heard the sounds of it all, combat. They were in the middle of a training session and the butler with his hands inside the side pockets of his jacket. He found the three of them inside one of the smaller training facilities making his way through but kept quiet and watched.
Damian and Sasha fought side by side and their opponent, Bruce. Both went at him instantaneously, while Bruce took hold of Damian's fist lifting him off the ground and leg sweeping Sasha. Bruce then tossed Damian aside as he jumped back and his two students again came at him without a moment hesitation. Their combined attempts ended the same way as it had since the beginning of the session, with the two of them downed but they were full of energy and determination so kept going and they were up on him again. Damian looked to have an opening but Sasha jumped out in front of him throwing out a knife hand strike, which Bruce so coolly slapped away and then elbowed her to the ground. Damian was then met by a spinning kick which forced him off his feet and in the opposite direction. The duo was immediately up again and charging him from different sides.
"Halt!" Bruce commanded.
Damian stopped but Sasha kept going as she leaped into the air and coming down over him with a powerful kick, but he reached out seizing her ankle and spinning her around before tossing her forward just beyond Damian. However, with exceptional acrobatic ability she spun and twirled her body around midair and landed over her feet. She had a distant look in her eyes as she again charged her father but this time her sea blue orbs turning to a blood red with a slit through them and a heavy aura surrounding her body as she powered up.
"Sasha, I said enough!" he again shouted.
The child vampire came to a sliding stop but with her fists sealed and her body tight and hissing under her breath. With a step or two back, Damian eyed her closely; never had he seen this side of his younger sister. She quickly loosened after a few breaths just before lowering her yokai back to normal.
"When I say halt, that means stop," Bruce frowned. "Do you understand?"
She didn't budge nor look at him and her arms crossed as she sulked and Bruce letting out a sigh just before taking a knee in front of her. He reached out with his hands over her shoulders and pulled Sasha inward while embracing her.
"Losing stinks. I don't ever want to lose," she pouted with her chin tightly pressed against his shoulder.
With her Bruce realized he needed to take a couple steps back, she wasn't an ordinary child. The way he handled her would be a learning curve and luckily he wouldn't have to do it alone with Akasha in the mix. The competitive edge and craving to succeed burning deeply in her, which was true for most vampires.
"Winning and losing doesn't matter here, Sasha. What happens behind closed doors prepares us for what we face out there, no one is keeping count. None of this is about attaining victory, we save lives and try to make Gotham... no, the world a better place. And before this exercise I told you there would be no use of yokai. What I want is to sharpen your overall fighting ability, without relying on strength. There might be instances where it's best you don't result to that."
"I think I understand," she nodded.
Bruce then pushed back and stood as he looked them both other.
"You're both so fixated on fighting as individuals and not together. It's because of this that you were constantly getting in each other's way and didn't allow yourselves a shot."
"Correction," Damian jumped in. "She's getting in my way."
"No, nii-san that's a lie I..."
"Enough!" Bruce again shot. "Arguing won't improve a thing. When the two of you learn to fight in sync and as a team we'll take things further."
Bruce's eyes specifically fell over Sasha.
"Damian is your older brother, and just like you he was trained from the time he could walk. From this point forward when the two of you go through your progressions I want you to follow his lead, he is the more polished and experienced fighter. I'll train and greatly improve your one on one combat skills, but working together as a team is equally as important, if not more. There will be situations where it's essential to overcoming a circumstance."
"Okay," Sasha nodded her head. "Got it, I understand."
Alfred took this opportunity to step in and clearing his throat as he rubbed his hands together.
"Dinner is ready, oh and sir," Alfred looked to Bruce. "A package just arrived for you."
The young vampire took off and sided with Alfred, as Damian followed close behind her.
"I'll be there in a minute, you can head up without me. There's something I must first review," Bruce informed.
"Very well, sir."
Alfred led the way with Damian and Sasha on either side of him whilst Bruce shut down the training room before heading out himself. On his way out and up the steps the bat computer's alert system sounded and he ran that way while looking up at the screen. By way of voice command Bruce unlocked the disabled the firewalls and there it was, right in front of him.
"Jitoshi Ichiro!" Bruce partially slammed his fist over the countertop.
Without any thinking it over he raced to the back room knowing what he needed to do and forcing open one of the glass cases as he stepped over a small platform. In just over a minute he marched outward and standing in front of the computer screen, fully dressed in his gear with the cowl pulled down over his face. On screen he mostly keyed in over the blinking red dot and in a couple clicks over the keyboard he zoomed in over the massive map out.
"London..." his eyes narrowed.
The caped crusader had no time to make a move as a loud boom erupted from behind as he swiftly spun around to a familiar face and ally.
"Victor."
Cyborg looked past him and to the computer screen.
"You know," Vic smiled. "I'll give you a lift."
"And Barry?" Batman questioned.
"Out on another mission, just me and you this time. If it's more than we can handle we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. Radioing for backup isn't out of the question."

Two workers of "Breeze Box it All," turned to leave the storage facility and were approached by a handful of strangely dressed folks. There were flames and explosions out behind them as they approached.
"Did Halloween come early?" one turned to the other and laughed as they did so together.
"Howdy boys, a marvelous night. I'm here for a little something and I could use a little assist."
It was an attractive woman with long purple hair with red eyes and wearing a purple suit with a combination of gold. Both guards looked at one another and smiled as their eyes returned over her and both whistling.
"Anything for a piece so hot," one approached with his hands inside his pockets.
They only got about within a foot of her as the sorceress giggled and throwing her head back.
"Aren't you just the little pigs, so why don't we make that official," the sorceress was with her hands out in front of her and glowing.
And just like that the two of them were turned into pigs. Behind her were Cheetah, Kahlua Shuzen, Kiria Yoshii, Kuyo, Killer Frost, Metallo and lastly, Bizarro. Another who was on his way out witnessed what happened and ran back inside. He was quickly zapped like the others and turned to a pig as the group of villains kicked their way into the storage building. Circe took quick stock of those inside the main space. It was set up much like a bank, with two tellers, a manager, three female security persons, and others working in the back rooms. Of the outlaws' Kahlua showed the most excitement, rubbing her hands together. Circe quickly disarmed the facility patrons using telekinesis, removing all their valuables and forcing them against the nearest walls with just her magic. Kuyo and Cheetah took off with two security personnel that weren't otherwise held in place. They were forced to unlock the main doors to where all the good stuff were kept. Cheetah giggled at the fright shown by each while Kuyo carried the sensory device.
They watched as one guard moved forward and tried several times to manipulate the panel, but he kept missing the numbers, because of his shaking hands. After a couple attempts he managed to hit the correct codes and the heavy door swung open revealing lots of contents. The yokai and cheetah both entered and forcing the two guards inward alongside them.
"Please... please don't kill me, I've got a family and they rely on me. Just take what you want and..."
"And shut up!" Cheetah snarled. "Your sentiments are making me want to puke. Keep quiet, do as we say and you live."
Cheetah clubbed the guard with the back of her paw and he went down without protest. Out of nowhere came a thunderous sound as something shot through a window in the primary area as glass shattered and all of Fairy Tale on its heels and Circe looking upward with her hands up in front of her. Once her eyes settled and she realized they now had company and who those persons were, the sorceress felt her very skin crawl.
"Diana Prince!"
The amazon princess hovered and floated above them, but there was another at her side covered by a green aura, white boots wearing a green and black suit. She was the Green Lantern, Jessica Cruz.
"For future reference, the next time you want to break into a place you should probably do so with a little less boom. Yeah you all practically broadcasted your little picnic. I'm crushed we weren't invited," the Green Lantern looked them all over. "Sorry, or maybe this was a convict's only, party. That would explain."
Killer Frost wasn't fond of the mocking tone and so she fired off ice shards at both, but the lantern shaping a barrier over both she and Wonder Woman.
"Damn this Justice League! You said they might come, but that was fast. I knew it was a bad idea to light up the block on our way here!" Kahlua looked to Kiria. "Now what?"
"There's only two of them, all we have to do is hold them off until Kuyo and Cheetah obtain what we came for."
Jessica lowered the force field and that's when Diana noticed all the people so tightly stacked up against the walls so vigorously and knew exactly whose doing.
"Circe, release them!" Diana blitzed downward and planted the sorceress into the ground.
The impact created a sizeable crater and knocked many off their feet, all but one being Bizarro. Wonder Woman got off a few hits over the sorceress before she was knocked back and over by Metallo. Jessica on the other hand took off for the open vault door, but she was met by Bizarro halfway through the air who thunder clapped and sent her mounting in the reverse direction and through a table. Diana was up on her feet and spinning her lasso around as she threw it out and connecting with Metallo's ankle as she pulled him off his feet and spinning him around a couple times before tossing him into Killer Frost and Kahlua.
"We've got trouble!" Cheetah hissed from inside the vault. "I leave this all to you, find it so we can get the hell out. I'll assist in holding off our company."
Kuyo was with a simple nod of his head as Cheetah dashed outward and into the larger space and scratching her claws together at the sight of Wonder Woman.

A mirror hung over a wall, reflecting the image of him, as if it were watching his every move. It was just over 3 A.M. in the morning, but this didn't bother him. He wore a ski mask and clad in all black. He stood there, staring at the glowing blue object which laid in his gold-gloved hands, intrigued by its beauty and power when coupled together with the many others. Each facet reflected moonlight and sparkled beautifully and radiantly. The beauty of the gem made him almost tremble at the idea of what it was capable and its purpose. He nor Fairy Tale had any clue of the details which led to it ending up in this museum, and it was irrelevant. Jitoshi had one job and one job only and that was to steal the Chirismoy shell. He needed to act quickly. The vampire heard footsteps. The last thing he needed was to get caught.
As He'd been trained, Jitoshi placed the usual black stone on the velvet pillow to take the shell's place, and dropped it into a small cloth bag, before starting for the window. He knew opening the window would create cluttering noises and alert security, but he was confident that he would be able to leap out the window before anyone caught him. On his way through the building he had already killed four, and left at least six others in with grave wounds. They were already pursuing him and he listened in over their footsteps from afar. He was working on the hinges when he heard footsteps coming towards the room he was in. In haste, the vampire pulled the metal clasp and pushed the door open violently, then leaped onto the window sill, getting ready to jump down. He was on the second level, scratching at his scalp.
The door creaked as he turned his head to get a glimpse of the first security official, who stood horror-struck, pointing a shaking gun at him.
"You-You're… that monster! I saw what you did, the bodies downstairs!"
Jitoshi ignored the guard, leaping down swiftly, and like a cat, landed gracefully as if it were nothing. The security guard was right, upon his entry he slaughtered at least four guards. His footsteps echoed in the night as he ran through the gates and out into the streets passed the museum. London was filled with dark alleyways and narrow streets, and no one knew about them better than he did. When away from the yokai realm and in the human world it was the location he spent most his days and nights. Alarms sounded all around and it would only be a matter of time before backup came running, but that didn't matter. Average humans didn't have the strength, nor knowledge to put down a vampire like himself. He loved it when the dead streets of the London night became lively again when policemen with lights ran around, and the chase on. He could just hear them, which he left far behind, roars of their shooting and panic.
His lips curled into a sneer. The chase was so on and there was nothing quite like it. There was a young officer, just sworn in and he loathed night shifts. His whole body seemed to be still asleep and he was filled with sluggishness. But the rush of the chase and going after criminals boosted him with energy he hadn't any idea he had. Being a part of the police was hard and tiring, especially when you were given a heavy lamp and yelled at to do this and that.
Flashlights brightened much of the street corners as patrol cars scoured the area for the vampire. Jitoshi casually just ran his way through the dark streets and sticking to the shadows. Officers were splitting up to cover more ground and one walked by himself away from the rest who looked for the thief/murderer elsewhere. He was turning a corner when he thought he heard light footsteps. He stopped. And then came another footstep. Something was up and he knew the convict was close.
His heart leaped and suddenly wished he had chosen a different path. But this was his job. He had to make sure, just in case. More faint footsteps echoed through the chill night. The officer tip-toed his way into a narrow street nearby, where he thought the sounds were coming from. He was panic-stricken when he saw a black cloth flip in the air and disappear around the corner.
"Hey!" he shouted, his lips trembling.
He couldn't hide his fright. He sprinted and turned around at the corner and that's when the dark figure lashed out over him. The officer was forced on his back and the vampire's fang's tearing right through his flesh as Jitoshi fed over him before tearing open his neck, but didn't stick around to see him bleed out. Again he got caught up in the sight of another few officers as he came sprinting out of an alley.
"Freeze!" one spat out, knowing that he wouldn't anyway.
The vampire turned his head to glimpse at him as he ran. They chased after him, as he turned another corner and he was proving to be too fast for any of them to keep up. London was a maze. A perfect place for a good chase.
After turning at the corner and running several meters, he was surprised when he realized he had lost track of them all. He stood there for a moment before eying the rooftops and so he jumped off two adjacent walls and made his way up. And so he then removed the ski mask and tossed it aside as he ran forward with glory. He had done it, and he did so on his own. That would certainly earn him extra points with Ched Vlet. With the Chirismoy shell in his possession he held a wide grin as he continued forward and pressing down over his ear piece.
"Akua, Zorvu... I've got it! The Chirismoy Shell!"
"Good," Zorvu's voice came in through the ear piece. "Now hurry here..."
Jitoshi was just about to make another jump but was tackled downward and to the roof as he readied himself to make the jump. He lost hold of the Chirismoy shell which bounced around and off the ledge.
"Batman!" the terrified vampire stared upward into the glowing eyes of the caped crusader.
"Here to collect another one of the magic pieces?" the masked vigilante grabbed at his collar and pulled him up. "Not tonight!"
Batman slammed him down over the roof just as he stood upright and looking back at Cyborg who pointed to their left.
"Down there, just passed the sidewalk... there it is."
The caped crusader didn't have to be asked twice as he leaped, spreading his cape and gliding downward over it. But just before he could touch down a lone figure zipped out of the shadows of a nearby alley and with a flying kick which sent Batman into the side of a light post. He quickly pushed up and laying his eyes over a very familiar foe who smiled down over him.
"The Batman. Don't you just have a nag for appearing at the wrong places at the wrong time?"
"Akua Shuzen..." the dark knight glared as he stood.
"We never did finish our little bout," the vampire grinned as she stepped into a fighting stance. "How about it?"
"How about not," Batman threw out a smoke bomb, disrupting Akua's vision.
The caped crusader then shot forward and going for the shell just as Cyborg dropped down behind him. Batman was just half an inch away from it when a chain wrapped around his ankle and he was pulled back and tossed away. An individual dressed in armor from head to toe was responsible for this and the caped crusader ending up on his side, but just as quickly rolled up and on his feet. The foggy atmosphere quickly blew away and both he and Cyborg got a good look at the armored individual but they had never seen him. Akua walked over and took the small shell into hand, and in her opposite she was with a small device which she waved over the shell with a buzzing sound from it.
"The real deal it is," Zorvu took a single step forward.
"Yes and it is all ours," the vampire smiled as she brought it towards her chest.
In that split second Batman tossed out a batarang which slice through and completely destroyed the handheld device as he ran at Akua. From the rooftops Jitoshi Ichiro dove from the ledge with his fist outward and coming down over Cyborg as he attempted to attack. Victor however reacted at the last instant and sidestepped the attempted assault. Akua held an unmistakable grin as she looked to both Justice League heroes.
"You want it," she dropped it through the neck of her cheongsam. "Come get it."
The vampire immediately took off and towards a building across the street and Zorvu shouting out to her.
"Shuzen this isn't part of protocol!" the armored yokai yelled.
Akua only slightly glimpsed over her shoulder and happy to see Batman had already taken off and following after her as she wanted. In a single bound she was up and over the roof but with Cyborg arriving just as she did, using his booster pack and in front her. His left arm morphed into a cannon as he took aim on her but as he looked to fire something soared out of the air and tackled him over the roof. It was a woman, but resembling a bumble bee, having purple hair and her attire a combination of purple and yellow.
"Your assist is unnecessary, Q-Bee," Akua looked down at her, as Cyborg wrestled his way out of her grasp.
Q-Bee flew around and dodged the shots fired at her from his cannon and by then both Zorvu and Jitoshi were also atop the roof and right away going after both Batman and Cyborg.
"Take the Chirismoy shell and go, we'll hold the two of them off," Zorvu said.
He was up on Batman as the two exchanged more than a handful of blows while Q-Bee buzzed in on Cyborg with Jitoshi not far behind her. Akua however didn't take off and instead watched them but only for a moment as Zorvu was taken down and then Batman setting his eyes over Akua who again took off running and jumping from one rooftop to the next. The caped crusader wasn't far behind and they got only about six buildings over before he intercepted her through the air and both plunging downward off the roof and near a large crowd of people where a live telecast was underway! Q-Bee and the others also came into view not long after. Zorvu was thrown and tossed into the side of a news van which tilted and ended up on its side.
It wasn't just the civilians who focused on the activity but the newscaster and her crew included. Akua had jumped up and kicking into Batman as Zorvu tossed out a chain which wrapped around his throat and Shuzen landing a couple dozen blows before he managed to break out. And overhead Q-Bee transformed her fist into a bee hives in which smaller bees flew outward at not only Cyborg but the crowds standing around and he destroyed them all in just a couple shots of beams.
"For those of you just joining us here on channel nine news, a very unbelievable chain of events have just unfolded behind us! The Justice League sprung onto the scene just moments ago and look to be engaged with some unknown threat!"
The cameraman kept the news anchor in view while at the same time following the action of the heroes taking on Fairy Tale. Not far from the area came a ringing sound indicating an approaching train. Akua looked that way and up a flight of stairs where the train station was and ran. The train itself passed by swiftly as she leaped atop one of the passenger cars and Batman following with his grapple gun. Cyborg was too busy dealing with both Jitoshi and Q-Bee to even realize what was happening. Akua smiled at the caped crusader just before going intangible and passing through the roof of the passenger car. Batman jumped forward and took hold of the edge as he kicked through a side window which shattered and into the empty passenger car, except for Akua.
"Alone at last," the vampire licked at her lips as she dropped back into a fighting stance. "And for a good doer like yourself it should be a weight off your shoulders to know there are no passengers. This seems to be transporting cargo and other supplies. So how about it, ready to finish this?"
Batman's eyes narrowed as he looked the vampire over and said nothing.
"Is that what this chase has been about, a conclusion to our last encounter?" the dark knight looked her off for a second and breathing out before his eyes again returned to her. "You aren't like them, not really. Maybe you think you are, but I know somewhere deep there's someone begging for affection and acknowledgement. I've read about your past... you had it tough, I can relate."
"Don't talk!" she hissed with her fangs exposed. "You don't know a thing about me!"
"You lived in secret in man's world in your early years, and with another vampire that you considered family, like a sister. But then she was taken from this world, mutilated... all because you, no vampires were misunderstood. Man fears what it doesn't understand, just as others but they... no, we can be forgiven. The act committed against the young girl, your friend was cruel and unforgiveable, but you can't really want the extermination of an entire species all because of the evil acts of a select few. There are good people out there, more so than bad. Don't allow that one incident to dictate the way you view them all. Living the life vengeance can take you to dark places, trust me… I know."
Akua swallowed back wondering where he learned any of that, but it only infuriated the Shuzen vampire.
"Don't you dear speak about her!"
"That's why you joined Fairy Tale, isn't it? They shared your hatred for mankind who took away the one thing you loved most in the world."
"Shut up!"
In that instant Akua dashed forward and with the dimensional blade active. She was going to slice him into tiny little pieces and feed it all to the roaches! But then through the same window he used to enter came the yokai in armor, Zorvu. Batman ducked down as the enemy tossed out his chain and rolled about over the ground and avoiding the weapon and Akua slowing up her steps as the member of Fairy Tale was in the way.
"Stand aside Zorvu, I'm going to end him myself!"
Beneath the armor the yokai warrior glowered over Akua and his fists clinched.
"We aren't here to fight, we got what we came for and now we go. Fighting these so called heroes of the league wasn't in the arrangement, they shall be dealt with later. You're out of line and I will not ask again."
Shuzen was with a laugh and a hand to her chest, beyond entertained.
"You have no authorization nor the means to carry out such a threat. I'd watch my tongue if I were you."
Zorvu gazed back at Akua just as another of the glass windows within the passenger car shattered and someone tumbling over the ground, but their features covered by a dark green cloak. But it was felt by them all that whoever this cloaked person was gave off a heavy yokai presence. And in their left hand they carried a mace with spike at the tip and in one step the weapon was tossed directly at Akua, but the vampire going intangible and instead piercing into the right shoulder of Zorvu and dropping him to the ground. Both Akua and Batman were in a defensive stance with no clue as to who this person was. Zorvu slowly rose and pulled the weapon out of his shoulder which then morphed into a bat, flapping its wings and returning to the cloaked individual's side.
"Hello, nee-san."
A woman removed the hood from over her head revealing green eyes, red/orangish hair which was tied in pigtails by two red bows. She wore a white blouse, short black and white tartan skirt, dark stockings and black boots.
"You shouldn't be here, Koka-chan," Akua lightly bit over her tongue. "Your refusal to rejoin Fairy Tale and your antics a couple weeks back haven't been forgotten. You had the opportunity to redeem yourself and you continuously chose the highway."
"Reviving a demon dictator that might overrule us all... is that really what you want?! I've made my decision and it's final. I have an eye or two still loyal to me in your ranks. How else do you think I knew to find you here?"
"Pity," Akua closed her eyes as she sighed. "That puts us against one another, again but if you must die for the greater cause... then so be it. And revealing your inside source was a bad move, we shall find these persons and they will be dealt with."
"You would kill your own family?" Kokoa posed.
The older Shuzen laughed as she looked away from her sister and to Zorvu.
"Rough her up, but she isn't to be killed. Keep her alive and we shall return with her to Fairy Tale and see if there isn't some sense we can knock into her. Leave this one to me."
Akua's eyes then returned to the caped crusader and the four warriors in a standstill as the train raced fast over the tracks. Kokoa was the first to make a move, pulling off the cloak/hood and tossing it aside as Zorvu raced towards her. Batman and Akua too ran at each other and exchanging blows as she disabled the dimensional blade. With a chain in hand Zorvu spun it around just before tossing it out and the weapon wrapping around Kokoa's throat.
"Let's take this to the roof, shall we?"
Kokoa had no say in the matter as the chain was wrapped tightly around her throat and she was forced out of a nearby window and onto the roof by Zorvu. And with the chain still attacthed the yokai covered in armor immediately slid forward and throwing his opponent over him and slamming her face first over the passenger cart. Below them, Akua was lifted and slammed into a seat which split in half and she fell back dazed. Suddenly the female vampire then saw a boot coming down on her. She rolled out of the way before throwing out her leg to try and sweep him off his feet but he jumped and avoided this. And then came a climb in her yokai as she powered herself up and Batman doing the same while in a defensive stance.
Batman was somewhat taken off guard by her display of speed as she zipped forward and with a strike to his gut and then a spinning kick to the side of his face which knocked him to the ground. Batman rolled out of the way of an attempted stomp before rising and facing Shuzen. Next came something she hadn't shown against him in their previous encounters, being a profusion of uncountable blades which he leaped out of the nearest window to his left to avoid as the blades completely decimated the entire passenger car.
"Nice reflexes..." Akua silently whispered.
The Hyakujin Ryouran came in handy and she rarely used it unless completely necessary. And so from there Akua again went intangible passing into a separate passenger car. Batman was falling downward towards a lake, but used a grapple gun to pull himself upward and crashing through the window of another car. Akua stood and awaited him.
Up top Zorvu sliced into Kokoa's left cheek with a small blade. She fell back somewhat and rubbing at the wound but it really was no big deal and so she quickly sprung back into action. Komori Nazo shaped into a long black katana blade as Kokoa slashed away at her armored foe and had him on his heels. Zorvu took hold of the weapon in the vampire's next swing, pulling it out of her grasp and tossing it aside. Zorvu then threw out an explosive that detonated on contact with Kokoa's body and sent her flying in the opposite direction. Beneath them Akua kicked at Batman and smashing his head into the side of a glass window but then he followed up with a knee to her stomach which drove her back the other way and then he took hold of her leg. Batman spun her around before tossing her into a pole. She twisted with a knife hand strike but he was ready for it, blocking and elbowing her in the face as she dropped and that's when it happened. The Chirismoy shell hoarded in her shirt fell out and bouncing up and down off the ground. Batman raced forward and reaching into his utility belt. He was up and over Shuzen as he chased down the small item.
"Like hell!" Akua popped up and taking off after him.
She was quickly over him and by then he already had the shell in his possession but in a burst of speed she tackled him as he lost hold of it and she reclaimed it.
With the shell safely secured, Akua again went on the attack pouncing over him, but Batman lifted his right leg striking her with the heel of his boot. Akua rolled forward losing her grip over him as both jumped back to their feet. Shuzen ran throwing out a series of kicks which Batman eluded and or dodged. Eventually she landed one with a slight pivot and the kick forcing Batman into a pole before Akua jumped up and swinging by as she took hold of an overhang strap and knocking him down with a forward straight kick. He quickly rose and spinning around and smashing his heel into Akua's forehead! The force of the kick propelled her sideways and back in the opposite direction as her head collided with a window that shattered. She tried to slow up her momentum but couldn't as she rolled off the leather seat and to the ground. The vampire laughed as she spat blood and stood, eying the dark knight who was in a fighting stance.
"It's unfortunate we're on different sides," she smiled throwing her hair back. "You would make for the perfect sparring partner. I've worked on my craft and you could say I've perfected it. Yet you stand here, dictating this fight... and dear I say doing so offhandedly. Well don't. Show me the best the Batman has got."
Fists tightened and all, he was unmoving and kept quiet. Akua's demeanor was different compared to how it was not long ago as it seemed she wanted to tear him to shreds, but now she seemed to be enjoying herself.
"You can't deny it, you're relishing this much as I am. They say the greatest of warriors can feel one another out in battle. And now that we've passed the warm up, shall we get to the main course?"
Akua immediately powered up her yokai and aura as Batman grew tight, taking in the feel of her inner power pouring out. He was still in a condensed state physically and for the time being he was incapable of matching her strength, but even so he powered himself up and readied himself.
With a look of bloodthirst in her eyes, Akua straightaway flew forward slamming herself into Batman and knocking him to the ground. Again he was up on his feet as the speed and quickness of both took a substantial jump. Akua slid as the dark knight zipped forward and getting behind her. She turned only to feel the sharpness of three batarangs piercing her chest, but she just as quickly went intangible as the weapons fell harmlessly to the ground.
"When I choose to end you Batman, you shall perish. There's absolutely nothing you can do about that, but for now I'd like to savor this."
With a quick glare, Batman rushed in with a hard right before sweeping the vampire off her feet. With Akua on her back the caped crusader raised his boot ready to put her out. Quickly Akua rolled to the left as she got up on one knee throwing out three star shaped shurikens. Batman's reflexes enabled him to catch each and tossing them aside and then ducked down avoiding Akua's dimensional blade with her hand shaped in a knife hand. Akua landed a hard right to his jaw with her opposite hand and Batman following with a punch to her nose. A knee to the gut then sent her off balance and that's when the ceiling above them caved through and Kokoa falling through. Zorvu dropped in over her and the vampire still conscious and holding her weapon. But there was also a square shaped item over the ground which rang and beeped and Batman's eyes widening.
"Kokoa!"
He ran forward taking hold of her wrist as the small device exploded and the two of them smashing through a nearby window as the entire passenger cart went up in flames and the impact of the explosion launched them away from the tracks and into a forest where they plowed into a tree. From there they sprawled downward over a hill before catching their footing. Kokoa was up and running but held back as Batman seized her arm.
"What are you doing, they're going to get away! Do you even know what they plan to do, or what they got their hands on tonight? Take your hands off me, I have to stop them!"
The vampire forced her way out of his grasp but he quickly raced out in front of her.
"Let them go," his gaze was sizzling over her. "That train had no passengers and while they might believe that they do, I can assure you they don't have it."
"Don't have it?" Kokoa looked up at him suspiciously.
Batman stepped back as he reached into his belt and revealing a light blue glowing object.
"That's... it, the Chirismoy shell! How and when did you get it?!"
"A quick trade in the moment, it isn't essential. And you're coming with me, I want to know what you've learned and what your inner guys have serviced you with."
"Thanks, but no thanks. I don't work for you, or anyone!" the vampire hissed.
"That wasn't a request, you're coming with me," Batman frowned just before turning and pressing down over a panel on his gauntlet. "Cyborg report, what is your status?"

Deadline, damn how he hated it. It always seemed to sneak up on him and then hit him over the head. Never did he get through all his paperwork with time to spare and today was no exception. Aono Tsukune was behind as he sat at his desk. The week in particular had gone much smoother than the starting of the semester, as it seemed the students were truly starting to finally settle in. He was with a grunt as he went through a set of his files, and realized one was missing and Ruby wasn't around to fetch him a replacement. He took a deep breath as he tried calming his nerves. But then came a kiss on his neck and a pair of strong, yet soft hands running over his chest. He reached out and touched them, as the one beside him rubbed the side of her head against him.
"I missed our night out again didn't I, Moka-san?" he asked as she again kissed him.
"It's fine. I like to watch you works," she teased. "I have a flight scheduled for Gotham tomorrow. It slipped my mind or I would have told you earlier. Just a quick trip and then I'll be back. Ditch all this, it can wait."
Tsukune stopped what he was doing and pushed everything aside as he scolded his wife.
"If I don't finish this today, in time for the conferences it'll be trouble," he tried to get out of her grasp but couldn't budge. And then his tone got serious.
"Moka-san, I mean it."
She obediently released him. But boy did she love that. She loved making him do things; she loved controlling and having all the power. But sometimes it was nice to see him take control and give orders. Specifically when it was in-between her legs. While she backed off, Moka remained standing nearby and Tsukune wondered how how much of his work he'd actually complete with her around. And it wasn't like he hated it. He always had a cynical smile on his face as she ordered him around which was most evident in the bedroom. That's where he really shined. He would do anything, literally anything she told him to do. Hell, last week he made love to her in a private villa in Japan, as she grinned recalling this. But her favorite place was the bedroom of their home where they got the most creative. Tsukune returned to his paperwork, but Moka wasn't going to have any of it. She was in heat and he was going to take care of it.
Tsukune squirmed in his seat as Moka's hands returned over his body. He heard a soft moan from behind him as he tried retaining his composer. Don't look at her, focus on your work. He told himself as his body cried out for her. Crap, is all he could think as he felt an erection mounting!
Of course, Moka knew of his desires and which buttons to press. They so rarely gtt the chance to be alone while he was at the academy. Somehow she needed to get him away from his dammed desk and onto the nearby sofa.
Tsukune was just barely holding on as her felt her hands moving downward. Unlike last time though, they were probing, questing, demanding, and begging. Her lips found his skin and she moaned as she pushed gently up against his chair. Damm it Moka-san! He thought as the last traces of his resistance ebbed away, why did she always have to do this to him? Tsukune moaned as her hand slipped into his trousers and stroked off his hardened member. And as he realized that they were going to do it here in his office, he hoped no bypassing students would listen in. But third period had just barely started, so the chances of anyone walking in on them was slim.
"The door locked?" Tsukune looked up at Moka.
"Of course," she lowered her head and kissed at his lips while continuing to stroke him off.
Tsukune removed himself from the chair and took hold of Moka's hand as he guided her to the sofa where they locked lips and began making out as they slowly removed each other's clothing.
The band had just finished a show and everyone was exhausted from the show but it was a success nonetheless. All headed backstage and a woman with long blue hair and fair skin, sitting in front of a mirror, exhausted but reflecting on the performance of the night. She undressed and headed for the shower where she got cleaned up and just so happened to be one of the last people out of the building. She was on her way down the street and in search for a taxi when she slowed up at the presence of another monster energy.
And this wasn't just any monster aura, but one that she acquainted herself with and knew quite well. The cat woman in human form bit at her tongue as the sounds of high heels clicking over the pavement. She wanted to continue punishing the succubus by pretending she was a ghost and didn't exist but it appeared the time for all that was finally coming to an end. The footsteps became slower and then came a familiar voice and speaking her name softly. She didn't respond, nor turn to face the individual, but her body tight.
"Felicia," she called out once more when the cat woman didn't respond.
With a deep sigh, Felicia moved forward and with her eyes peeled as she continued her search for a taxi. As she did this, the footsteps from behind picked up speed and then came a hand down over her right shoulder and she was held back from moving any further.
"Felicia," that same voice came out louder than the first times but still soft. "You aren't still angry with me, are you? I've called you like hundreds of times and every time you haven't returned them. It was a one night stand, just sex… I have no feelings for him then, nor do I now. You can have him, what happened was nothing, we were both just enjoying the moment that is all."
Felicia grumbled as she pivoted her body and forced the succubus off her, who was also in human form. She only got off two additional steps before Morrigan firmly took hold of her right arm and wouldn't let go.
"This is childish, you can't ignore me forever. We need you, I need you."
Morrigan forced herself in close and rubbing the side of her face against Felicia's. The cat woman wanted to feel disgusted, but she didn't and in fact it was the opposite. It was comforting to be so softly and lovingly embraced. Morrigan was far from perfect and made her share of mistakes, but at the end of the day she was one of the few persons that Felicia cared for.
"Anything change while I've been away?" Felicia slowly turned.
"Nothing significant, no. There's a coffee shop nearby, how about a little one on one? We can talk about whatever you want and I could catch you up on some things. What do you say, hun?"
Felicia swung her bag around but her answer came quickly.
"All of us aren't rehearsing until mid-day tomorrow, so that's fine."
And so with their arms locked, Morrigan pulled her along as they skipped down the block.

It was a clear and bright night over the city of Metropolis with not a single cloud in sight. From all the skyscrapers only one really caught a visitor's eyes, the Luthor Corp building. A Chinook Crane helicopter hovered from down the street and headed toward the building. The helicopter lowered and landed atop it. It was carrying a very special payload signed off by the CEO himself, Lex Luthor. Coming to a hover over the landing pad, it lowered the payload onto a small-motorized flatbed, which was controlled remotely. The scientist holding the wireless remote held down the forward button to go into the docking entrance for the Luthor building. And it was almost on the other side of town where Lois Lane arrived in the newsroom of the Daily Planet, finding Clark at his desk once again with a little over time.
"You should really call it a night, don't you think? You must be tired... who am I kidding, of course you aren't. You've been the last one out for the past couple days. You've been keeping busy, is everything okay with the team?" she gave a knowing look.
Clark looked at her for a second, and smiled.
"Everything is fine, in fact couldn't be better. Just making up for lost time and the days that I've been forced to leave early, if you know what I mean." he was with a smile.
Lois walked around placing her bag beside her desk, gazing over the different files over the surface. It had been a long evening and she too was with a little bit of over time.
"Maybe not tonight, but tomorrow let's have dinner, just you and I. Jon should be fine on his own for an hour or two."
"You read my mind," Clark tipped his hat.
Within the minute Clark was called to Chief Perry White's office. They had a short discussion of his previous paper before he returned and Lois sitting as he'd left her. He only halfway sat into his seat when his sense of hearing picked up on gunfire and commotion. Lois took notice of his expression and she knew something was up.
"Clark," she stood and leaned forward over her desk. "What is it?"
"Something is happening," he stepped away from his desk and shaking his head. "I must go."
She knew exactly what this meant and so she just watched as he took off towards the elevators. And once on the main level and out the side doors, he glanced around and with no one looking he took off into the alley and changing in a flash. He was quickly suited and taking off into the sky. In just seconds he was on the other side of town and over the commotion, but something caught his telescopic eyes. Looking down at an ambulance, he floated down to the spot. Once he landed, he saw a couple dozen persons being loaded and or treated on scene.
"What happened here?" he asked with an exclamatory sound in his tone.
The paramedic was far too busy to give an immediate answer and was also without eye contact for a while. Eventually she looked to him and almost jumped out of her boots.
"Oh it's you, thank heavens!" she lowered a hand over his shoulder. "I don't know exactly, eye witnesses say there was a group of them, all dressed strangely. Most the action occurred down the block that way."
The woman pointed just before jumping into the vehicle and closing the door. Superman patted the left side giving them the signal to go.
Grinding his teeth, Superman felt tremors through his body. Kicking off the ground, he quickly flew up and above the city. There were Two F-22 raptor jets zipping through the air and over a storage facility. And that's when Superman spotted the activity that had relocated outside.
"Diana and..." he quieted as he looked around and seeing the Green Lantern tossed into a pickup truck by Bizarro. "No!"
He was perplexed by the scene unfolding before his eyes, with no idea of the context and there was no time to think about it. From what he could tell there were only two leaguers against all of them, enemies of the JLA and Fairy Tale. The man of steel particularly eyed Kiria Yoshii before zipping downward. Bizarro was with his hands raised above his head and looked ready to put the Green Lantern through the ground, but the kryptonian zipped in leading with his shoulder and sending the villain wheeling through the air and into the side of a building some distance away.
"Superman!" Jessica said.
"What's happening here," he looked all around.
"In there," she pointed towards the storage facility. "One of them is inside. It must be another of the..."
"Chirismoy shells," Superman finished for her. "Go after whoever it is and I'll aid Diana, do it fast."
"Got it," Jessica nodded as she quickly took off.
Superman looked outward and to the sight of Diana being knocked around by the combination of Metallo, Cheetah, Kahlua and Killer Frost! Circe also lent a hand firing off magical projectiles at her and by way of TK, grabbing hold of her throat as she attempted to suffocate Diana. It was only for a moment as Kal blitzed them all that they couldn't see it coming. Circe was the first to drop, followed by Cheetah and then a back hand to the side of Metallo's face which sent him off his feet and into the air.
"The kryptonian!" Cheetah growled as she clawed away at the concrete.
Diana clobbered both Killer Frost and Kahlua with a spinning kick, but there was no time to exchange words between the two heroes as Bizarro zoomed in on Kal from out of nowhere and tackling him to the ground as he threw out punch after punch over his face with great ferocity as the foundation around them shook. Circe stood and shook herself off and from the corner of her eye realized the Lantern had sprung herself free with an opening to the building, curtesy of Superman. In literally the snap of a finger Circe teleported, re appearing inside the storage facility and blocking off Jessica's path.
"Oh rats!" the Green Lantern bit down over her tongue.
"Did you really think you'd get by us so easily?"
With Circe off her tail, Diana took charge zipping forward and landing a knee into Kiria's stomach and then a follow-up overhead kick to his skull which planted him face first into the ground and rendering him unconscious. And with her lasso thrown out and around the throat of Killer Frost, she forced the villainous up and off her feet with a powerful strike to the jaw which sent her through the air. And with Diana's guard dropped slightly, Cheetah barraged in over her but the amazon princess had more than enough reaction speed to counter and block the first couple strikes as the two of them went at it.
Superman rid himself of Bizarro in a single strike as both took to the air and Kal drove his right fist straight into the his opponent's left cheek. Superman could feel Bizarro's cheekbone break and his face cave in, with the sounds of crushing bone. The villain instantly flew backwards, flying over the streets and past the edge of the city, slamming into the East River creating a huge splash of water, nearly thirty miles away. Superman quickly flew off after him, and there in the blink of an eye and diving inward.
Civilians gathered at the seaport railing, separating them from falling into the water near the sidewalk. The ground shook with substantial shocks, the water with every punch looked like explosions ensuing underneath it. Bizarro suddenly came shooting outwards from the water against his will, slamming into a city skyscraper. Pieces of the building crumbled around him and fell with him toward the city streets. Superman used his enhanced vision, zipping through the upper floors and pulling nearly ten office workers to safety. Luckily most the building had been vacated at the time. Bizarro took off running toward Superman, as he was checking to make certain each civilian wasn't with injury. And at the last second Kal looked as the Bizarro was already up on him. Superman immediately clasped his hands around Bizarro's wrist as they came down upon him, creating a massive crater as surrounding bystanders were knocked off their feet and a few parked vehicles flipped upside down. Sending his left knee into Bizarro's gut, the villain doubled over for air. Superman sent a right uppercut, and a left jab into his face, seeing him only stumble backward he sent a shot of heat vision into the Bizarro's chest. His opponent fell over the ground, grumbling as he rubbed his chest with his left hand as it healed. Quickly rising again he flew into the air and hovering over Superman.
The villain then flew upward landing atop a building, and wrapped his arms around a sizeable antenna. Once it was gripped he ripped it up out of the concrete and the cables that were attached. As Superman flew upward and got close, Bizarro swung it backwards and then slammed it forward into Superman like a baseball bat. Flying backwards through the air, he slowed himself down until he came to a stop. If anything Kal wanted to lead him away from the city away from all the civilians. He could barely let loose as is without worrying about civilians and damaging the turf. Superman started flying back up increasing speed with every second. Once he was a foot away, Kal increased his speed tenfold and threw out a powerful punch to the gut of his foe, essentially spearing it right through his stomach. His back bulged outwards. The force of the punch sent Bizarro through the air and much of the city shook within a thirty mile radius. Windows shattered, at least a dozen fire hydrants exploding and vehicles over the road rumbling up and down, and light posts exploding out of place as they fell. Bizarro's body zipped upward far passed the clouds and out of the earth's atmosphere.
"What the hell is going on out here?" an owner of a supermarket stepped out over a sidewalk. "A damn earthquake?!"
And within the minute the villain returned through the skies. Superman flew further up, seeing the damage had an effect, but as himself he was Krytonian so that wouldn't last for very long. He needed to somehow put him down with as much little damage to the city as possible. Slowly hovering up, Kal looked down at the surrounding streets and buildings. People huddled around, looking up at the scene. He couldn't fight anywhere near his full strength with so many around, but in order to defeat his foe it would require more of an output of his inner strength. Bizarro slowly lifted his head up, grabbing at his stomach and exhaling. The villain breathed heavily and spitting blood. His anger rose as he huffed and puffed. Both then flew at one another with their fists out in front of them and colliding as the entire city received another shockwave, but this time over ninety miles in any which direction.

It was out and atop the rooftop to the capital of Hiklorhan where she stood in dark colored dress and black bow tied in her hair. It was a beautiful evening and she was just so ready to put it all behind her. And then came his footsteps as she could feel his very presence as he approached. The Dark Lord turned and face him as he came within two feet of her, but she wasn't with her usual smile that he was used to seeing. And if he had to say, it appeared she was with sadness in them.
"Akasha," Colton moved in beside her over the balcony. "You don't look so hot, talk to me. I can't even recall the last time you looked this stressed."
That same distress remained in her eyes as she looked outward over the city and away from him while her heart ached and sprinted.
"There's something I must… must tell you and I'm so very sorry."
Her grip tightened over the railing as she bit over her tongue and became tense, but he lowered a reassuring hand over her shoulder. At this point he was very much worried about her and contemplated if maybe something had happened to her daughter.
"Go ahead, no matter how bad. I'll listen and be there for you no matter what."
At first she couldn't bring herself to look up at him directly, but eventually found the will to do so.
"I hope you can find it in yourself to forgive me, but it's over," Akasha bit over her lower lip. "You needed to know before I formally announced it."
"Over, I don't think I understand," Colton backed away from her with the shake of his head.
"You and I," the Dark Lord swallowed. "We're done, I'm calling off the ceremony…"
