Chapter 13: Homecoming
Some Lemon and Sexual Language Warning!

Pam's mouth dropped open as James relayed the entire story of the Justice Lords and Nightshroud to him. Robin had already left when he arrived.
She was extremely shocked at what the other world James had done.
"I was scared." James said. "I almost fell apart when I saw the other you like that. I…didn't know what to do."
Pam took his hands and pulled him into a light hug.
"I'd hug you harder but I'm still kinda hurting." She whispered in his ear. "I love you."
"And I love you! Truly!" James replied. "I just can't believe I would do what he did…it's unfathomable!"
"Well there are no Justice Lords here right?" She smiled.

He chuckled.
"Well they're in jail and don't have their superpowers anymore technically."
"Oh whatever." She kept smiling. "Besides, my ribs healed. I'm still just a little sore."
She pointed to the little table. He looked and saw some beakers and test tubes.
"I told birdboy to fetch some of my stuff from my greenhouse." Pam explained. "I'm a bit of a genius, so I was able to brew something up to speed up the healing process."
"Well, that's unexpected." James chuckled again. "Didn't know you could do that."
"Ha, child's play." Pam chuckled. "Got time for a quickie?"
He blushed. "Maybe…"
She pulled him into her chest. "Oh I think you do."
"Pam!" James's muffled speech sounded. "Your breasts are nice but you don't have to suffocate me in them!"
She burst out laughing. "Hey, come on, what better competition do you have than me? That flat-chested Supergirl?"
"Hey hey, I didn't look there so I don't know if she is." James laughed.
"Compared to me, she is." Pam grinned. "Come on, we've been over this. You can't have more perfection than me."
She posed sexily on the bed in front of him. He looked and noticed she was still wearing the lingerie.

"Poor Tim…" He thought, chuckling.
"If we're not careful, puberty's gonna come early for him." Alcor joined in.
"Ha! Now that's funny!"
He realized he was drooling. He quickly wiped if off and sat next to her.
"Aww, is the little Nightshroud unable to control his inhibitions?" She grinned.
"Ha. Ha. Ha." James muttered and started massaging her shoulders, enabling a moan from her.
He turned her so she was lying on her stomach and massaged her back.
"Ooh! Ah!" She moaned softly. "That's nice, do my butt next."
James blushed darker. "Damn lady you really are blunt."
"Well what can I say? Our last session was interrupted." Pam said.
So after her back was done, he slowly moved his hands over her bottom.
She gasped, and breathed out in a sigh.
"Just one thing before I vanish." Alcor said.
"What?"
"Perhaps you could use your Solarium and make the feeling better…"

Before James could answer, Alcor had gone to sleep.
"Use my Solarium? Never thought of that." James thought. "Something to consider."
He then flipped her over and started massaging her breasts.
"Ah! Oooh!" She moaned in pleasure. "I didn't ask to be massaged there."
He quickly withdrew his hands. "Sorry!"
She laughed and placed his hands back on her breasts.
"That felt good though, keep doing it."
He started to cover his hands with Solarium and kept massaging her.
"Oh!" She suddenly leaned forward and kissed him, catching him off guard.
"Mmmph!" James moaned under the kiss.

"Sorry…it's just that touch was so erotic…" Pam whispered. "What did you do?"
"Solarium…" He said.
"Ah…" She nodded. "Livening up the experience are you?"
James chuckled. "Anything to make you feel good."
Pam smiled. "Oh you're spoiling me!"
"Indeed. Now back down!" He pushed her back onto the bed.
"Ooooh…Taking the initiative are you?"
He started moving his hands down her sides, causing her to giggle.
"Are you…ticklish?" He asked evilly.
"No!" Pam insisted. "Just...nothing!"

Grinning, James ran his hands on her sides again, causing her to giggle again.
"You bastard…" Pam breathed, giggling.
He started tickling her hips, making her laugh out loud.
"Oh god James no! HA! HA! HA!"
He then traced his finger to her belly button and tickled there.
"Not there! BWAH HAHA!" Pam exploded.
He was having so much fun, he accidentally brushed his hand between her thighs.
"OH!" She moaned in ecstasy. "Oh my…!"
All of a sudden, the mood changed from bubbly and happy to lustful and sensual.
James threw his shirt off and pulled a towel from under his bed and placed it in front of him. He didn't want to piss off the landlord now.

At that moment Pam came.
"Do it again! Rub me!" She cried desperately.
Not making a sound, James complied. He started rubbing his hand on her sex, causing her to scream out in lust.
"This…Solarium is changing everything!" He thought, surprised. "Wow…"
"Ah!" She cried out. "M-More!"
Suddenly, James stopped. He raised his head and looked around. He started to hear footsteps growing louder and louder on his floor.
"Shit! Someone's coming!" He whispered.
"Damn it!" She groaned, annoyed.
Pam quickly gathered her other clothes and ran to the bathroom. He quickly burnt the towel with his Solarium and made the bed. Quickly putting his jeans on just in time for someone to knock on the door.
"Who is it?" He asked.
"It's Barbara!" the voice of Barbara Gordon sounded.

"Come in!" James said as he finished up the bed and put his shirt back on.
The door opened and the red-haired crime fighter walked in.
"Hey James! I heard everything, are you alright?" She sat next to him on his bed.
"Yeah I'm ok. It's been madness though today." He replied as he looked outside. The sun was starting to set on Gotham.
"I missed you!" She said as she threw her arms around him.
He hugged her back. "Thanks Barbara! You too!"
"Ahem!" Pam's voice sounded.
She was wearing a light blue sweater and white pants with sneakers.
"Going running Pam?" James asked cheekily.
"Shut up." She replied, annoyed.

"Pam! How have…you been?" Barbara asked a little awkwardly.
"Bleh, three broken ribs now fully healed, you interrupting us, everything's peachy."
"Didn't need to know that last part…" She replied, nonplussed.
James took out the journal and showed both girls.
"I stole this from Nightshroud's base." He explained. "I'm going to read this and find out what he did those two years."
"Ok cool." Barbara replied. "I heard everything from both Superman and Batman. Must've been rough."
"You have no idea." James nodded. "Ugh, real bastard this guy was."
"You mean you."
"No!"
"Well he is another version of you…"
"Not helping Pam!"

"Look, it's almost time to head out into Gotham. Just read a little bit in the city while we patrol. Batman and Robin are already out. Pam, you wanna join us?"
"I don't know what you're talking about." She denied.
"Ha ha." Barbara rolled her eyes. "Ok, how about Masteria?"
Pam gasped. "Shit."
Barbara giggled. "Hey, it's no big deal. Technically you aren't a villain anymore. So I trust you. What do you say; wanna fight your old friends?"
"Uhh no." Pam replied. "Well…later. I'm gonna take a rest first…"
James took the hint. "Barbara, I'll meet you in a few minutes."
His glare was enough for her to figure it out.
"Alright, I'll see you then!" She walked out of the room and shut the door behind her.

"Well, you got my subtle hint." Pam smiled. "Now finish me."
James cracked his knuckles. "Don't scream too loud for me now…"

10 minutes later…

Pam was breathing hard, as was James. Both of them were under the covers with their clothes spread out all over the floor.
"You're the reason I'm never fat." Pam breathed. "The endless stimulation is helping me a lot."
"Nah." James disagreed. "You're a vegan aren't you? It doesn't matter how much you don't exercise for you always have that figure. I mean that's impressive."
She giggled. "You unknowingly say the right things. Now I think birdgirl is waiting for you."
"Are you sure you don't wanna tour Gotham with us tonight? It's gonna be different now."
"I will later tonight." She said. "And trust me, it's gonna feel really strange when I do go out as Masteria."

He chuckled. "True."

After jumping into the shower, James suddenly started coughing up blood again. He saw the blood sink into the drain, then shut off the shower. He switched to his Nightshroud attire save the mask and looked into the mirror.
"Why am I suddenly coughing up blood?" He wondered.
"I don't know James, but I haven't found anything so far." Alcor said. "Don't worry, maybe just a bruise. It should stop soon."
"Hope so…"
James put his mask on as Nightshroud and flew out the window into the Gotham night.
He flew higher over the buildings and saw Batgirl and Batman fighting off a group of thugs led by The Penguin. Swooping down low, he grabbed two thugs and threw them into other thugs, knocking them down.
"What!?" Penguin protested. "Who are you?"

Nightshroud floated down next to Batman.
"Aw come on, you forgot me already?" He pouted. "I mean it was you and Hatter that abducted me."
His eyes widened. "YOU!"
The moment the words left his lips, Nightshroud had grabbed the scruff of his neck and lifted him up.
"For some reason I don't feel like taking my revenge on you." He said. "Maybe it's cause you're already a sorry villain as it is. Whatever. He's all yours Batman."
He dropped him in front of the Dark Knight, who handcuffed him. After the police had hauled him away, he turned to Nightshroud.
"You're late." Batman folded his arms.
"Sorry, I got held up." Nightshroud held his hands up. "My fault."

"Ah leave him alone Batman." Batgirl smiled. "At least the Penguin's out of commission."
"For now." He replied.
"Where's Robin?"
"Asleep. He's been out and about for nearly three days in a row."
"Shoot. I feel really bad now for asking him to watch Pam…"
"Doesn't matter now." Batman shook his head.
"Oh and James, I need to speak to you." Batgirl said.
"Oh?" Nightshroud/James looked at her.
"I'll be with you in a second Batman." Batgirl promised. "Something important to James I gotta tell him."

Batgirl and James/Nightshroud stood on top of Waynetech, overlooking the square.
"Look James." She turned to him. "Supergirl's been texting me all day about you."
"M-Me!?" He asked, surprised. "Why me?"
"Look, I'm not gonna jump to conclusions, but it's pretty clear that she has a thing for you."
"Already? But we only met once!" James insisted.
"Some girls can be hooked by first impression. I did with Bruce." Batgirl/Barbara said. "You must've made a great impression with her…"
James shrugged. "I don't know exactly what I did. We were just talking normally."

"Well think about this for a second." Barbara said. "Have you met any other crime fighters or superheroes our ages?"
"Besides you and Nightwing? No."
"Exactly. Right now at least you're the only guy near her age that can fight very well. Meaning she could look at you with a little extra attention being who you are."
"But that's like saying there's no other guy my age so you'll have to do!"
She sighed. "Wrong. You're the first, and that means a lot."
"Oh great, just like in the other dimension…" James muttered.
"Now hold on, that was a different case. Pam was lobotomized remember?"
"Yeah but I very quickly abandoned her and just went after Kara! I mean, I never thought I could be so selfish and heartless that I'd abandon the first girl I ever loved for someone else! Even if our ages are different that shouldn't mean anything!"
"Well mostly. You're right, but people will wonder why you dated such an age difference in the first place and not someone your age."

James folded his arms and looked at her.
"Really? You tell me."

She raised her arms in protest. "Hey hold on, I'm on your side! I'm not saying it's wrong, I'm saying that's what the general population would think. We may be living in a modern time, but it's easy to change an environment. People's feelings not so much."
He nodded. "You're right. Thanks. Now you should go, I think Bruce is waiting for you."
She smiled. "Am doing. See ya."
Barbara/Batgirl leaped off the tall building, discharged her grappling hook and swung into the night.
He smiled as she darkness overtook her. James then flew to North Gotham to keep watch on a tall building.

"Well now that I'm here…"
Sitting down, he took out the journal.
"Here goes nothing…"
