Chapter 3: Bat VS Moth

So after an aerial battle, the villains had crashed onto Gotham Park and Batman and Killer Moth readied themselves for a one-on-one battle. Nightwing and Firefly just watched for now and the GCPD are all witnessing this battle.

As Batman and Killer Moth faced each other and are in position, they did nothing for a minute somehow. All stared at them in confusion until both made their move at the same time. Batman threw a batarang and Killer Moth fired a laser shot. Both projectiles collided as Killer Moth powered up his tech flight and in mid air from the ground engaged Batman in close combat as he delivered hooks, punches and even kicks in mid air. Batman however blocked his attacks moving only one arm to do so and kicked him back. Killer Moth retaliated by flying off in the air. "What the-" Nightwing and Firefly exclaimed for a moment.

"He's just getting started." Batman stated with realization as soon enough, Killer Moth reappeared flying down at a supersonic speed and attacked Batman pushing him all way until he crashed onto a tree. There, Killer Moth delivered more close combat but Batman evaded them all and used both legs to deliver a powerful kick sending the villain back a few feet away. Killer Moth just fired his laser gauntlets but Batman used his cape and all his shots were deflected. One of them somehow hit a police officer's hat while he's eating a hot dog while watching the fight. It somehow shocked him greatly as he dropped his food but another officer caught it up and finished it off surprising him.

Now back to the fight. "Impossible!" Killer Moth exclaimed. "Laserproof Batcape." Batman answered to him as he took out his grappler and fired a grappling hook that attached to Killer Moth's feet tying them both together. "What the-AHHHH!" Batman reeled Killer Moth closer but a distance away from him as he began swinging himself and the grappler at the same time. Killer Moth was feeling a bit dizzy as he was dragged and spun around thrice and Batman let go releasing him. Killer Moth then crashed onto the ground. The police and Nightwing cheered but Killer Moth stood up and flew up again. Batman expects him to do his move again but noticed something. As Killer Moth flew down, it appears he was not aiming to attack Batman because all of a sudden, his flight suit launched 4 green explosive spheres!

"Say hello to my moth balls!" Killer Moth called out. "Well, that doesn't make sense." Firefly thought to himself as Killer Moth's explosives landed and exploded, When the smoke cleared, "Hey! Where is he?" Killer Moth looked around when, "Hey. Look up." He looked up and saw Batman who just jumped from a tree gliding above him. "What goes up." He then glided down pinning him down also and crashed him onto the ground. "Must come down." finished Batman as Killer Moth who was still being pinned down kicked Batman off and flew up. "Ineffective. Watch me Batman. The old Killer Moth you fought before many times is no more. He used to get his ass kicked around brutally but now, I have been reborn as the newly improved version of myself!" Killer Moth pointed his laser gauntlets at Batman and opened fire. Batman dodged every single shot as he threw some batarangs but the villain too evaded them all. "This is taking too long. I shall finish it with this!" The back of his flight suit instantly launched out the 3 green capsules and they appeared to be-"Are those mechanical moth drones?" asked Nightwing. "Absolutely!" Killer Moth answered as they unfold themselves activating their arms and miniature wings and the moth drones encircled Batman. "Is that all you got Moth?"

"Oh Batman. You worry too much. You'll see how it goes. Now watch and learn," Soon enough, the green domes on the moth drones opened out 2 holes and 2 laser cannons emerged out and opened fired at the dark knight but thanks to his laserproof cape, it had no effect on him but they kept him pinned as they flew around shooting their weaponry. Batman threw a few batarangs but they managed to evade them all. "Ha! Ha! Ha! You need to work on your aim better!" Batman just switched to using his grappling device and fired. "HA! Missed!'

"I never missed." said Batman as he reeled in the grappling. Killer Moth turned and, "PRACK!" a tree branch that was attached onto the hook struck him down and as Killer Moth fell, Batman gained the upper hand and delivered some close combat that beaten Killer Moth down. The GPCD cheered and likewise, Nightwing. "It's over Killer Moth. You may have new abilities and skills but it still makes you the same as always."

"That may be true when I easily got my ass pwned by you within seconds before but you have yet to see my full potential!" Batman stared at Killer Moth for a moment but never noticed that...

Nightwing: "BEHIND YOU!"

He turned and the 3 moth drones Killer Moth deployed opened up 5 holes from their green domes and 5 homing missiles were fired from each of them!

Firefly: "5 times 3 equals 15! that's gonna be op!" Soon enough, the missiles bombarded the area around Batman and even though he used his cape to endure the explosion, they are too great as he was sent flying and crashing onto the ground. Killer Moth then gained the upper hand as he flew up and flew towards the unconscious bat and kicked him up in the air as the moth drones grabbed onto his arms and back. He then delivered close combat onto the unconscious bat. "Moth beats bat!" He laughed as he continued inflicting pain on Batman. "Enough already Mothy. You've gone too far!" Nightwing called out as he drew out his twin short rods.

"I don't give a damn about you fool! Firefly! Burn him!"

"With pleasure." Firefly got his flamethrower and opened fired. Nightwing jumped back as all of a sudden before all this could continue...

"BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!"

"Fire! Stop them at all cost!" Commissioner Gordon could not stand seeing Batman get beaten down so he took action and successfully, Killer Moth was taken by surprise as his moth drones accidentally dropped Batman down to the ground and Nightwing caught him in time. "Way too heavy..." he stated as he gently dropped him.

Back to the villains, "We can't finish the job since the police interfered." said Firefly. "No matter, we'll finish it at another time. Let's go!" The duo flew off quickly taking the stones they took from the store and the 3 moth drones folded back and safely attached themselves back onto Killer Moth's flight suit.

After they flew off, Nightwing checked on Batman. "Alive but crushed." He said in relief as Commissioner Gordon approached him. "Will he be alright." he asked. "As always, he will be alright." Just then, the Batmobile revved in. "I knew you did that." Nightwing told Batman as he helped him up and they walked slowly into the vehicle. "Put it...in...autopilot." Nightwing got the message as he put Batman in the Batmobile and the ride into autopilot. After that, it drove off as Nightwing took out a controller and pressed a button and his motorcycle revved up and parked in front of him. He got in and waved the commissioner goodbye and drove off. An officer asked him. "Sir. is everything alright?"

"I'm fine officer. I never expected that Batman got defeated easily...

"By a D-list villain even though he put up a good fight. I got a bad feeling that what he said is true. The moth has indeed been reborn and it was proven to us today."

How shocking. The Moth beat the Bat for once and it was unexpected. Will Batman regain his strength and defeat Killer Moth? You'll find out soon enough. I hope I also made this fight a challenge too since it's challenging to describe all the battles the Batman fought when he faced villains.
