Barbara was independent. She had to be, since the funeral her father had buried himself in his work and become oblivious to anything but his work. It was as if Barbara simply didn't exist anymore and she was alright with that. Why? Because it was her fault, even if he didn't know it so him blaming her is perfectly A-ok, even if he is doing it subconsciously.
She sat, in the Batcave as her alter ego and stared at the screen in front of her digesting the information that was on it.
Morgan Le Fay;
Morgan Le Fay is an Arthurian sorceress bent on destroying Camelot and giving the thrown to her son, Mordred. Now with Camelot gone she wants to conquer the world and rebuild it so that her son may still have the thrown.
"Well this doesn't tell me anything I don't already know" She grumbled closing the basic files on the bat computer made by Batman and opened up another one labelled 'Powers and/or abilities.'
Morgan Le Fay is an adept sorceress and relies solely on herself, however with the presence of her immortal son she must be careful. On several occasions the league has beaten her since her number one priority is protecting her son.
"Sorcery? That still doesn't tell me much…I'm gonna check google" Batgirl muttered and minimised the file and pulled up google.
"So wikipedia, what have ya got for me?" She muttered to herself and started reading and only remembered the important parts.
Morgan Le Fay was King Arthur's half brother and 'Le Fay' is from the French words 'La Fée ' meaning fairy. So it is presumable that she isn't an ordinary human. Her first name may refer to the Morgens (Morgans Mari-Morgans) which are water spirits.
So her name presumably means 'The water fairy' or 'fairy of the water'.
Morgan was sent to convent when her father was murdered by Uther Pendragon and he married her mother. She trained under Merlin.
"So…she wants revenge on Merlin why? I can understand the whole 'my son is heir to the thrown' thing, but was Merlin just in her way?" She asked but never got to finish reading as Batman's comm. came on to the screen.
"Batgirl, the league needs backup, were sending a zeta tube for you so be ready" Batman ordered and her face lit up. A chance to fight with the league? HELL YEAH!
"Who are we up against?" She asked as she stood where the coordinates instructed.
"Morgan Le Fay" He Informed her and she grinned as she materialised on the battle scene, only to leap to the right to avoid being crushed by superman.
Batgirl's head flicked around to where Morgan Le Fay currently was, surrounded by a swirling mass of yellow energy that looked thick and reckless, almost as if she couldn't control it.
"Batgirl! To your left!" Batman called to her and she turned expecting some kind of attack, but instead she saw a small blonde haired boy.
A victim perhaps? An innocent bystander?
She watched him for a moment and saw that he was cheering when the league was attacked, whenever Morgan Le Fay spoke her words he cheered.
Mordred, definitely Mordred.
She ran towards him and grabbed him from behind, wrapping her arms under his armpits and locking them tightly behind his head.
"HEY!" He cried out in anger and dismay as he was captured and Batgirl glared over at Morgan who had J'onn by the throat.
"YO! FAIRY OF THE WATER!" She yelled recalling her earlier translation and the result was instantaneous.
Morgan Le Fay's head turned so fast that Batgirl flinched, and then she was glared at fiercely as Morgan registered what position her son was in.
"Release him, or I crush the Martian" Morgan threatened and Batgirl tightened her hold enough for Mordred to yelp in pain.
"And I'll snap his neck" Was her only reply and Morgan laughed at her.
"You wouldn't dare to even think of doing such a thing, as a hero you cannot" Morgan informed her and Batgirl grinned maliciously.
"Haven't you been told? I'm not one hundred percent hero, and I'm not one hundred percent here either" Batgirl informed her, squeezing just a little harder and Mordred starting groaning in pain and Batgirl could feel his neck straining.
Come on bitch, make my fucking day.
Morgan, sensing the danger her son was in, released J'onn and took several steps away from him. Batgirl released Mordred and threw him unceremoniously to the ground and Morgan and Mordred both started to vanish.
"Before I leave I will give you one final thing girl, hatred is all you have ever known and now they shall know it as fiercely as you once did, enjoy your curse child for as long it may last" She hissed at Batgirl, and then she was gone.
"Well, that was certainly interesting" Batgirl commented and turned to the league who were dragging themselves off the ground and over to her, Superman smiled at her patted her on the shoulder.
"Nice bluff" He told her and she frowned, genuinely confused.
"What bluff?" She asked him as she turned to Batman and grinned at him, he glanced away from her.
"Go on, you know you want to" She grinned whilst chuckling and Batman glared at her.
"No" He simply said and her grin grew.
"Aw, your such a boring old fart" Batgirl laughed as they lead the way out of the large cavern that Batgirl hadn't realised she was in.
"So any idea what Morgan Le Fay said before she vanished?" Flash asked zipping up to Batman who shook his head and Batgirl frowned.
"What? You mean you didn't hear her?" She asked and they looked at her and shook their heads.
"No, what did she say?" Batman demanded rather than asked and Batgirl shrugged her shoulders and waved her hand nonchalantly.
"She said that she was going to give everyone hatred for some reason, told me to enjoy my curse as long as it lasted blah-di-blah crap like that" She told them in a bored tone and Batman sighed at the fact she was taking it so lightly.
"Aren't you the least bit worried about this?" Green Lantern asked her and she shrugged her shoulders.
"I've dealt with worse than some curse, trust me. It'll be a walk in the park"
WOOO! Here it is! Number three!
This took ages for two reasons;
Reason number was is that I wrote it five different times before I was content because I wanted it to be perfect (The other four ideas will be four other stories XD)
Reason number two is that I strained a tendon in my wrist and have had trouble typing as my left wrist is in quite a bit of pain. (Though it has been getting better)
Lionfire, I read that review, and I just about died laughing. That was comical genius, and for that I applaud you.
WinterRain, I'm glad you thought it was so funny! I had planned on hanging them upside down but then when I wrote it I totally forgot to put it in! GASP!
Knightmare, yes I think I might have my own special little idea for the trophy wall…hehe…
Kindleflame, I will work that scene in at some point! As it sounds, hilarious. Thank you for the suggestion!
Highlander, COOKIES! YAY! Ahem, I'm glad you liked the cave, the Batcat (Sabrina) and the chair/bed will be permanent! (Batgirl needs somewhere to sleep after all)
One final thing for you all, are any of you opposed to the pairing Barbara and Roy? I was pondering on it for the next fic (As Morgan's spell has a special twist) and this was the pair I came up with, and in my head they are perfect. I have fallen in love with this pairing but I wanted to run it by you guys first.
Read and Review guys!
Tulip Out.
