Chapter 3
"I look stupid." Terry mumbled tying the bow tie as he stared at himself in the mirror. "Yeah, you do now come on we're late enough as it is." Bruce said as he locked the front door. "Alright, I'm coming. What is this for again?" he asked holding the door open for Bruce to climb in the car. "This is something Sesshoumaru and I have been planning for a while. His sister's birthday is also tomorrow." Bruce said giving terry directions to the hotel the party was being held in. "Here we are." Terry said parking the car and waiting for Bruce to get out of the car. "Just in case, you have that Batsuit correct?" he asked as they walked into the building and towards the elevators. "Yeah, I'm wearing it under the tux." Terry answered. "Good, I have a feeling Psiren will show up tonight." Bruce said. "How do you know? Oh wait never mind just ignore that question." Terry said sheepishly. "I was planning on it." Bruce said letting a ghost of a smile drift across his features.
"Sesshoumaru, it's good to see you again." Bruce said addressing a silver haired man in front of them. "Bruce, it's good to see you as well. This must be your assistant." Sesshoumaru said turning around and staring at Terry with his molten gold eyes. "What are you?" Terry blurted seeing how young the male in front of them looked. "Excuse me?" Sesshoumaru asked arching an eyebrow. "I mean-" "Where's your sister? Don't tell me she couldn't come, what with her birthday being tomorrow." Bruce smirked. "No, she is here. When I left her, she was fighting with her dress." Sesshoumaru answered. Bruce nodded and turned to the guests. "Quite the turn out old friend." He said. "Yes, my sister is well liked." Sesshoumaru said. "Excuse me." Bruce said hobbling over to a group of his friends. "To answer your question, I am an inu youkai." Sesshoumaru said. "A dog what?" Terry asked. "I'm a dog demon." Sesshoumaru answered, looking at the confused teen. Terry stared at him for a few seconds and smiled. "Schway."
Sesshoumaru smirked and brought his champagne glass to his lips, "very." "Sesshoumaru, your sister refuses to come out of the room." A passing female waitress whispered. "Thank you, please excuse me." Sesshoumaru said nodding his head at Terry and walking away. Terry sighed and walked over to where Bruce was standing. "Terry, you remember Barbara Gordon and Tim Drake. This is Dick Grayson; he was the original Robin and Nightwing." Bruce said introducing the two and whispering the last part so no one could hear him. "Nice to meet you." Both males said simultaneously.

"Kagome, come out of the room." Sesshoumaru said knocking on the door she was behind. "No, you lied to me." She said. "How?" he asked sipping his champagne. "You didn't tell me this was really a birthday party; you said that you both just decided to throw a party." Kagome said cracking the door open. "I'm sorry, now will you please just come out? They have champagne." He taunted. He heard a small sigh before his adopted sister appeared in the doorway. "Alright, I guess I have no choice do I?" she asked smoothing the bodice of the dark purple dress. "No, you don't." Sesshoumaru said holding his arm out to her. Kagome hooked hers through his and let him lead her to the party room and left her to go and announce her presence via the microphone on the stage.
"Everyone, may I have your attention please? Not only is this party something Bruce Wayne and I have decided to just throw together but it's also a birthday party for my little sister. Please help me give her the best 18th birthday party she will ever have, please help me welcome Kagome Higurashi-Tashio." Sesshoumaru said leading everyone into a round of applause.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Terry choked on his champagne as Kagome walked through the doors and up onto the stage with Sesshoumaru. "You okay McGinnis?" Barbara asked. "Yeah, fine, it just went down the wrong way." Terry said rubbing his throat. "Sure it did." She said with an unreadable tone in her voice, with something akin to amusement dancing in the depths of her eyes. Terry stared at the girl that he had danced with hours ago hug Sesshoumaru and smile at him and felt something stir inside of him. "Okay everyone, now then, I hate speeches and everything that goes with them so everyone have fun and party, but first, we eat!" Kagome exclaimed happily.
"That's all you have to say?" Sesshoumaru whispered as he helped her down the stairs. "I said that I don't like speeches. Oh look, people." Kagome said as Sesshoumaru led her over to a group that were just sitting down. "Kagome, this is Bruce Wayne, Barbara Gordon, Dick Grayson, Tim Drake, and Terry McGinnis." Sesshoumaru introduced. "Hey, nice to meet you thanks for coming." Kagome said keeping eye contact with Terry. "Nice to meet you finally as well, Kagome. Your brother has said so much about you." Bruce said shaking her hand. "I hope everything he's said has been good. Sesshoumaru has a thing with stretching the truth sometimes." Kagome said laughing lightly.
Terry watched as Kagome laughed with Sesshoumaru and Bruce, everyone else in the group disappearing to talk to someone they had seen. "Kagome, I would like to introduce you to my assistant; this is Terry McGinnis. Terry, this is Sesshoumaru's little sister." Bruce said. "Nice to see you again Terry." Kagome said coyly. "Yeah, you two." He replied mataching her seductive stare with one of his own. "You two know eachother?" Sesshoumaru asked, raising his brow. "Yeah, we met at a club. He's a great dancer." She said turning her gaze to her adoptive older brother. "I thought you said you hated dancing." Bruce said as the waitresses began bringing out soup and salad. "Only your kind of dancing." Terry replied.
Kagome sat between Terry and Sesshoumaru, catching bits and pieces of the conversations at the table. She glanced to her right at her brother, glarring daggers at Terry. "I thought you liked him…" she trailed off. "I did, that was until I discovered that you two had already met and shared a connection." He whispered back. Kagome smirked as she picked her glass up with her right hand and let her left hand drop onto Terry's thigh, making him jump. "Sesshoumaru, have you heard about Psiren?" Barbara asked. Now it was Kagome's turn to jump at the sound of her alter egos name. "I have, I think she's either very brave or very foolish as to what she's doing." He replied. "She really must be good to get a comment from you." Dick said. "What do you think about her Terry?" Tim asked the noticable jumpy Batman. "I-I think she's very…uh…good at what she's…trying to make us think she's part of our…um…side…" he stuttered. Everyone at the table looked oddly at him before going back to their converstions. Kagome's hand began trailing slowly, softly up and down the inside of his thigh. "You know, if you don't stop-" "-what are you giong to do?" Kagome asked squeezing his thigh.
Terry cleared his throat and grabbed the hand. "Will you all excuse us for a few minutes, she wants to see something." Terry said standing up and pulling Kagome behind him. Kagome looked around as Terry ushered her through the doors that led out to the balcany, out of eyesight of everyone. "This is what I wanted to see?" Kagome asked in a flirty tone. Terry turned towards her and pressed her back to the wall, bringing his mouth over hers. Kagome gasped when he pushed up closer to her and Terry quickly darted his tongue into her mouth, making her moan at the deepness of the kiss.
*Bomb noise (because I forgot how they sounded haha)*
"What was that?" Kagome asked jerking away from Terry as smoke began pouring into the room from where the wall was exploded. "I don't know, come on, let's get you back to your brother." Terry said whisking her towards Sesshoumaru and Bruce. "Are you prepared?" Bruce asked. "Yeah, if I can figure out what's going on here." Terry responded squinting as the smoke began to clear. "Greetings Gotham!" a maniacal laugh followed after the weird greeting. 'I know that voice!' Bruce, his former wards, and Terry thought at the same time. Sesshoumaru growled as red seeped into his eyes as the intruder made his appearance known. "Calm yourself brother." Kagome whispered placing a hand on his arm. Terry made eye contact with Bruce as he slowly began to leave the room. "Poison Ivy is here too." Barbara said anxiously. Bruce groaned as all of his old wards began rattling off the names of all his old nemesis' that were appearing seemingly out of thin air.
Kagome glanced around the room and ran towards the door that she and Sesshoumaru had walked through moments before. 'Bad, this is so bad!' she thought ducking into the room she changed in. Quickly; she kicked off her silver shoes and unlaced the corset style back of her dress. "This is so not a good birthday for me." She grumbled pulling her blonde wig and mask on. Sighing, she opened the door and slipped out. Psiren ran back into the ballroom and found all of the guests in an unbreakable cage made of vines. "What are you doing here?" a gruff voice asked to her left. "I'm here to stop them. I don't know why you're here though." Psiren said in a flirty tone. Batman narrowed his eyes and looked towards the people that had been revived. Kagome felt a faint tug at her heartstrings and brought a hand up to her chest gasping as a faint pain began to throb. 'Jewel shards? There's no way that's possible!' she thought looking at the Jokers forehead then at every other villain that was in the room, only getting the same results.
Batman stared at the woman next to him and held a hand out. "Truce? Until they can be brought down?" he asked. Psiren looked at his hand before nodding and grasping his hand with her smaller one. "Let's just go." She said before letting go of his hand and running to the big group of enemies. Pulling out a card, it turned into a sword and she began swinging at the fat, short guy in a tux and a top hat holding an umbrella. "What is this? The new Batgirl?" he asked shooting something from the tip of his umbrella at her. Psiren gasped as she felt something tear at her shoulder before something caught her around the waist and crashed through the top of the disappearing vine dome. "You okay?" Batman asked. "Fine, my shoulder is a little sore is all. Shouldn't you be out there fighting them?" she asked looking through her bleary eyes and the man holding her. "No, something's going on. Poison Ivy dropped the dome, here try sitting up." He said wrapping an arm around her un-injured shoulder and helping her sit up and turning his attention to the stage.
"Who was that?" the Joker asked with a stupid look on his face. "Someone trying to be another hero, that's all. Hurry up and get him out here." Catwoman purred sitting on the edge of the stage next to a much younger Harley Quinn. "Right, hey, Naraku get out here and do your thing so we can get out of here. Batman looks ready to try and pounce on all of us." Harvey Dent said holding a gun and waving it around. Psiren heard something that sounded like Sesshoumaru's growl in her head as she struggled to sit up. "Don't move too much." Batman said as a man with short black hair and red eyes walked onto the stage and smirked at Sesshoumaru. "People of Gotham, a new order of business is at hand. You may all think that Batman and the new Batgirl-" "It's Psiren Naraku, try getting it right the next time!" Psiren called out angrily. Naraku rolled his eyes and scoffed, before walking over to the stage and began walking towards Psiren and Batman. "Can someone please come over here and take care of this over grown rat with wings?" he asked. Poison Ivy smiled and flicked her wrist, vines wrapping around Batman's body and taking him away from Psiren's form. 'Terry, work through this, think like Batman.' Bruce thought watching as Sesshoumaru lunged at Harvey Dent.
*Bang*
*Thump*
"Sesshoumaru! Get the hell off of me! Sesshoumaru!" Psiren yelled struggling against Naraku as he picked her up and walked out onto the balcony of the building. "Tell me something Batman, are you fast enough to get to her before she hits the ground?" Naraku asked shifting his hold to hold around her neck. Batman stopped struggling and slid a Batarang out of his wrist and began cutting at the vines holding him. Psiren narrowed her eyes and kicked Naraku in the stomach, a knife blade shooting from her heel and receding back in after it went into his stomach; causing him to release her, and free fall to the hard cold pavement 13 stories below. Batman engaged his jets on his feet and flew over the ledge of the building, noticing the smoke as all of the revived enemies of the original Batman disappeared into thin air.

Bruce, Barbara, Tim, and Dick ran over to Sesshoumaru's unconscious form and began giving orders to the few surrounding people that hadn't ran out as soon as the enemies were gone. "Call 911." Tim yelled pointing to one woman. "Bruce, what do you think?" Barbara asked with a worried look in her eyes. "I think that Terry's going to bring her back to the Batcave. We need to figure out who she is and what her angle is." Bruce whispered as paramedics rushed in. "I don't think she has and angle. She was trying to help him." She said. "She obviously knew, Naraku, was it? Something's going on and I'm going to find out what it is." He said turning his eyes to Sesshoumaru being wheeled out of the room. Barbara sighed before shrugging and walking out with her former flame, Dick. "Go ahead and go." Bruce told Tim. "I'll drive you back to the manor. You don't need to have a heart attack while driving." He said clasping Bruce on the back and leading him back to the parking lot. "What do you think about all of this?" Tim asked. "I think Psiren may know something that we could use." Bruce said closing his eyes and pulling a picture of Psiren and one of Kagome in his mind comparing the two people. 'I wonder…' he thought opening his eyes.
