Batman: The Animated Series 'Fan Fiction Love Story'

By Tayla Drago

Episode # 55 - Shadow of the Bat

Rupert Thorne is supervising a loading at a warehouse late at night. They are interrupted by a squad of GPD officers, led personally by Commissioner Gordon, Bullock, Megan came along, and the new Deputy Commissioner Gil Mason.

"This is the police!" Gordon said on the megaphone. "We have you surrounded! Come out with your hands up!"

Trying to make the escape for Rupert for Megan to go after them while jumping over his two other thugs in her way once she made her way inside of the place.

"Sorry, boys, but I can't play, got a villain to catch. But I should not stand in that spot if I were you two. Bye!"

Seems that Gordon and the other cops brought in the big tanks to stopping the men on their end. With Megan catching up to Rupert in time to have his gun out to protect himself.

"I never liked this place…" he said to himself. "Megan, I know you're there. Try not coming closer to me. I don't want to shoot you, but I will slow you don't if I have to!"

"I know, so that's why I brought up backup with me." Megan calls out her partner. "Got Rupert Throne on the roof here, Batman! Back me up!"

Thorne tries to run, but is caught on the roof by Batman. Trying to shoot at him for Megan to fire back to push back the bullets in time, trying to hide to not get caught.

"Come at me! No one's going to take down Rupert Throne here!" he sees Batman. "You! If I'm going down, then I'm taking you with me!"

Firing some more rounds at Batman to move away in time and Megan trying to sneak from behind…Trying to find him, Batman was up top to tackle Rupert to the ground and Megan to shoot the gun out of his hands.

"You were saying, Rupert?" she mocks with the mob boss.

Just in time too for Gordon, Bullock, Montoya, Megan and the other officers to arrest Rupert and his other two men now. Manson has a look around for Gordon tells him to be strong and careful om his end.

"Study, Gil." said Gordon.

Manson moves in to make Rupert surrender.

"Don't make this hard on yourself, Thorne! Step out where we can see you!"

They hear a voice for Megan shows them the catch that she and Batman did together.

"Not even if I could, flatfoot!" he said out loud.

Looking around Megan appears to show the officers a present.

"Look!" Bullock said. "Hey, Megan…"

Trying to hit on Megan again, Bullock? Dream on!

"Looking for someone?" she said. "Everything I already is taken care of."

Well, that's taken care of thanks to Megan and Batman's help once again.

"Nice work, Megan. Both you and Batman." Gordon said to her. "Don't you just love it when he gives 'em to you gift wrapped?"

This makes Thorne the third Gotham City mob boss who has been apprehended thanks to information supplied by Mason, supposedly from a secret informant, but Bruce Wayne is suspicious. For him and Megan listen to the whole thing on every TV channel on today's news, same with Alfred as well.

"Who's the person work still works for Rupert, huh? Do tell…" Megan was interested. "I'm good for a fun mystery to solve."

Seems that Megan will do that part already to love solving cases a lot. With her a Bruce seeing a lot of the news going on lately, and hopefully it wasn't too much for Alfred to worry about them.

"You'll hurt your eyes if you change the channels too much, sir. Or your attention spam, why I would be seeing you two happy to have Rupert Throne brought to justice."

"I would like to know who the mysterious informant is." Bruce said to his butler. "Already Megan's getting down to business already, because she knows these things."

Megan does so for Bruce has a good point. No kidding, this Gil person is very good. Or at least 'too good'.

"I know, right? This is the third gang war that this Gil person brought down since he worked with Gordon. Too good if you ask me. Bruce, you might be on to something…as always."

"Well, if this keeps up then you two might have to take a vacation." Alfred made a joke.

Very funny, well business was at hand right now for them to get to work. At Gordon and his daughter's home, Barbara Gordon is practicing a gymnastics routine, while her father teases her about her burgeoning relationship with Mason.

"I just got you to stop treating me like a kid and now you're trying to marry me off!" Barbara said to her father.

Then Mason himself appears at their door and reluctantly places Gordon under arrest. Evidence found in the warehouse raid implicates Gordon in taking bribes from Thorne. No way, he was being set up! Poor Barbara. For Megan gets the news.

"What the-?!" she was upset. "Commissioner James Gordon arrested for making brides with Rupert Throne on the gang event?! (No way! He's being set up here!)" Megan goes to tell about this to Bruce right away. "Bruce! Hey, Bruce, this is bad news! It's about Gordon!"

And Megan does so, for both her and Bruce become enraged and even more suspicious when he reads the newspaper report about Gordon's arrest.

"We'll see about this." He said to throw the newspapers all over the floor. "Let's go, Megan."

"You got it."

Outraged, Barbara complains to District Attorney Janet van Dorn, who says the evidence is solid, and that there are warnings that Gordon might flee the country if allowed bail. Bullock encourages her to trust her instincts, and tells her the police department will be holding a public rally to gather support for Gordon. Batman sneaks into the police evidence room to examine the evidence. Megan uses her computer book to scan for any finger prints and/or hair left on Gordon's to find nothing, so that was good.

"Strange…" Batman said to himself.

"Tell me about it. I'm getting something odd about these things…" Megan looks at them again. "Is like someone set this man up or something. Can't find other leftovers, but it must lead us to something big."

From getting out of the evidences room and back outside to try avoiding the cops…well, not for Batman as for Megan was on duty. For Batman throws something within the jail building, where he and Megan could communicate with Gordon in his cell, and tells him that the evidence looks as though it was forged by someone other than Thorne's gang, and that there have been rumors on the street of a new organization moving in.

"I was wondering when you two will get around for me." He said to them.

"What up, Gordon?" Megan said. "We're getting down to business for Batman and me to find something good." Megan prints out something for Batman see stand what they got from the data bases.

"I got evidences that was pinpointed to you. Turns out it was a perfect forging done by someone months ago, who worked for Throne's gang."

Then Gordon was step up! If it wasn't Rupert's doing on this one…

"Then who?" question Gordon.

"Well, word on the street is this…another new crime syndicate is coming around Gotham." Megan added.

"It could be a big connection. We'll go check it out." said Batman to ask Gordon on one more thing. "Anything you need?"

Before that, Gordon asks them to look in on Barbara.

"Yes. Check on Barbara. And keep her out of this."

Batman was long gone now for Megan to follow him on foot. For they explain and check on Barbara to tell her what's going on, and she begs of Batman the most to make an appearance at the rally, to show the public that he is also on Gordon's side. Megan might, but something was on her partner's mind right now.

"But you have to come to the rally." She said. "The public respects you. If they see you there, then they know that my Dad is innocent."

Megan didn't get it either.

"(Strange…Bruce never backs down to help out Gordon a lot. What gives?) Mind telling us the real reason of yours, Batman?"

"Sorry, but there's more to this than a simple frame up." He said to them. "And I'm not going to find out by appearing in rallies."

Batman refuses, saying the most important thing is for him to find evidence of Gordon's innocence. Still, Barbara needed the two to help her out.

"But don't you see-!"

"The best thing for you to do is to keep out of this." He tells her that it's best she stays out of it for her father's sake. "The people behind this are dangerous."

Megan will be there for Barbara to prove that Gordon was innocent to solving the case and finding out what Bruce's plans were.

"Just because he's saying that, Barbara, that doesn't mean he'll still won't save your father." She leaves with Batman. "We'll get to work right away."

"I guess…he's your boyfriend after all. You're a lucky girl." Barbara said.

That made Megan blush a little when Barbara said to her.

"Well, you know. Taking it slow. Anyways, it's for the best. Stay safe."

But once Batman's gone and Megan too, Barbara resolves that one way or another, he will be there. Instead of Batman, Bruce decides to investigate in his disguise of 'Matches' Malone.

"Could you at least leave a device for Megan and me to come to your aid if we have to?" ask Dick. "We can-!"

"No." he said. "It's too dangerous to track you two down with it."

"Well, there has to be something that I can do."

Dick Grayson protests at not being allowed to come with him, but Bruce suggests that Robin and Megan to appear at the rally in his stead.

"And you want Dick and I to do the rally while you risk your life to head on down to the bad area in Gotham." Megan agrees with Robin. "It's suicide to me. Let me come with you."

"It'll be fine, Megan, just do what needs to be done." He hugs her to ask Dick this next question. "And do you make public appearance?"

Megan must team up with Robin while Batman was out to go undercover and in disguise.

"I take that as a yes there."

At the rally outside police headquarters, Gil is giving a speech on behalf of Commissioner Gordon. Robin prepares to swing overhead with Megan on standby.

"It's show time!" he tries to impress Megan. "Watch me now, Megan, this one's for you."

"Just be ready to go, alright?"

But then a figure dressed in a bat costume does it first. It turns out that Barbara has donned her own Batsuit for the sake of appearances.

"Wait…What in the-?"

"That can't be Bruce, can it?" Megan asks Dick. "Ah! I'm so confuse right now!"

For Bullock sees this for him to think Batman's a show off.

"Grand standin' psycho!"

After the crowd's enthusiastic reaction, she plans to slip away, but then a car speeds past the podium and the rider opens fire with a machine gun. Instinctively, Barbara leaps into action, catching the banner over the street and pulling it down over the car's windshield, causing it to crash. Megan stops the bad guys with a beat on some of them to see who the mysterious Batman backup was.

"Got you…" she then talks to the person. "Hey, you! Just who are you? Are you on Batman's side?"

As she starts to run, Robin catches up with her and grabs at her cowl, tearing away a piece of it and letting her hair fall loose.

"Hey! Wait up!" Robin tries stopping her but the piece rips off to show the hair coming out. "A girl?!"

"Wait! This backup person is a woman who's dressed up as Batman? Bat…Girl…Batgirl?" confused Megan. "Robin, what's going on here?"

"You got me." Summer Gleeson catches footage of the mysterious 'Batgirl' fleeing into an alley. Leaving Megan to have enough time to hack into the camera with her computer book to get all the things on film tonight. Well, the two-thugs escaped again to go after her thinking that she was Batman. Robin and Megan save her in time. "The lady is with me, gents." said Robin.

Escaping for Megan to fire some rounds with her gun to miss.

"Robin, let's help that girl out." She said. "I got your back."

They check on Barbara 'well they don't know it was her'.

"Are you crazy?" Robin said to her. "You're lucky that you didn't get killed!"

Still, this won't stop her.

"Come on! They're getting away."

"This is nut!" he follows Barbara/

Megan somehow recognizes that voice from someone she knows of…

"(I know that voice…) Hey! Wait up, you two!" she follows them. "This is nuts indeed, Robin." Barbara chases one of the masked thugs into an alley and pulls off his mask, getting a good look at his face. He manages to get away, however, and she must run before Robin and Megan catches up with her.

"Great, she's gone too! Funny, I never met a Batgirl in our club…"

Good point, seems that they have a new member on the team.

"What? You miss your future girlfriend already, Robin?" Megan teases with him.

"Very funny, Megan, my feeling is you only. Anyways, we need something to look this whole thing up…"

Megan showed Robin the goods from her computer book.

"Got it! Can I hack back at the Batcave?"

Watching the news report of the incident, Dick and Megan both notice something strange: in slow motion, Mason ducked well before the guns appeared out of the car's windows, as if he expected it. A very big clue on that part other than the mysterious Batgirl 'who's Barbara Gordon herself'.

"A new member on your crime fighting, sir and madam?" Alfred asks the two.

"When I find out who that Batgirl is, I'll-!"

"Hey, Dick, focus." Megan snaps him out of it. "We got work to do. Still need to try to find out something up about the shoot out during the rally."

Soon enough the two and Alfred find something odd caught on TV.

"Wait a minute…" Dick sees it first. "Megan, you see this?"

From Manson ducking down before the gun firing started. Is like he knew about the event to happen before the panicking started. From rewinding it and then playing it again for Megan has found something huge.

"Yeah, you're right. I see it. What's up with Gil doing that?"

"Mr. Manson ducked before the shoot out." said Alfred.

"Almost though he was accepting it." Dick thought about it. "So weird…"

"I still think we should tell Bruce about this. I better call him up." Before Megan could do that, Dick stops her for his jealousy to take over.

"Wait!" he said to suddenly hug Megan. "Bruce will be fine. It's all you think about is himself as Bruce or Batman. What about me?"

Alfred moves away a little to not get in to it too much.

"Huh? What do you mean, Dick? This is no time to do these things right now. This is serious for Gil to be a suspect, the Batgirl too, and who's setting Gordon up. Let's be serious here!"

And for Dick to just get on with his true feelings towards Megan to kiss her on the lips. Wow!

"Oh, dear…"

Well, this shocks Alfred and for Dick to really love Megan a lot for her to be confused about all of it.

"I don't care if you and Bruce love each other to get people to think that you and Batman have a thing…I love you, Megan!" he said to embrace her in his arms. "I loved you since we first met! You have to understand that."

"Let go, Dick! Let. Me. Go!" She slaps him on the face hard to let go of Megan at last.

Shocking to Alfred and hurtful to Dick a little, he went a little overboard for his love. He wasn't hurting her, but he needs to take a hint a little. Unlike Bullock was with Megan the last time, gross!

"Oh, no…Megan, I'm sorry. From hugging you out of nowhere and then kissing you like that…" he felt bad. "Listen-!"

"Don't!" she leaves the room to take off. "Go do what needs to be done while I find Bruce, okay?! What you did there, Dick, was…! I mean come on! You love me too! Bullock and I won't happen and now this?! Excuse me! Alfred, I'm going out to solve the case here."

Alfred understood a bit to let Megan go for Dick to really feel bad.

"Megan, I do mean it. I really am in love with you."

Trying to follow her, she shoots her gun in the air to give Dick a warning to stay away for now.

"Don't!" Megan said in anger. "Just…not now…! This isn't over yet. Just…be there in time."

Leaves him a locator device to just stay put.

"Ah, okay then…"

Once Megan left and Dick needed to clear his mind to feel bad just now and think of something to do next too, Alfred says this part out.

"Every gentlemen does seem to love Ms. Megan very much so, don't they, Master Dick?" the butler asked.

As Bullock hears about the new Batgirl super hero…

"Batgirl! Sheesh! What's next? Weasel-Woman?" Bullocks looks up to see Barbara and Montoya. "Heh heh!"

Barbara slips into police headquarters and looks through the mug books, finding the face of the thug she tackled, Mad Dog. Excitedly, she goes to Mason's apartment to tell him, but stops short when she sees Mad Dog himself sitting in his living room. Mason passes him off as a friend. Barbara hurriedly excuses herself, much to Mason's confusion. Meanwhile, Bruce is undercover at the Stacked Deck as Matches Malone. He sees Mad Dog make a phone call from the booth and, through lip-reading, realizes where he's going next. He follows him to an abandoned theater, but is disabled by its security systems as he is entering. 'Matches' comes around as a prisoner, confronted by Two-Face. He claims to be interested in joining his gang, but Two-Face, as always, lets his coin decide. It comes up 'bad heads', and 'Matches' is knocked unconscious. With Megan trying to follow Batman somewhere in the very bad area 'while doing something on her computer book' she does find something big for the mysterious Batgirl's identity from the hair piece left out.

"(What's this? As if my day has already gotten bad enough…)" she was speechless on what she just discovered. "(Wait! This isn't real, but my detective skills are never wrong. Meaning that Barbara Gordon is this Batgirl person! Why is she doing all of this?!)"

With Batman, mysteriously absent, Megan surprised to still to go find her true love and confused about Dick loving her now, and Barbara deciding that she can trust no one except herself, Barbara dons her new costume and prepares to enter the night as Batgirl.

"What am I gonna do? If Gil's involved in this, then there's no one that I can trust. And if Batman's not around..." she talks to her teddy bear. "What do you think Woobie?" Barbara then holds up her cape and cowl. "Could use a little work, hun?" Barbara created her own suit to go as Batgirl. "So Batman can't help me? Fine. Let's see what Batgirl can do!"

Nice look! As Robin felt bad for Megan to find her while still solving the case and finding Batman as well to also try finding Batgirl too.

"Where will you start?" Alfred asks Dick.

"With Gil Mason." he said to dress as Robin again. "The videotape clearly shows that he ducked before those shots were fired. If he knew that he was going to be shot at, he probably knows a lot more about what's going on."

Robin gets on his Batcycle to be ready to take off.

"Then he may know more then he's letting on about Commissioner Gordon's unfortunate situation."

You got that part right, Alfred.

"I hope so, Alfred, because if this lead fizzles, then I'm fresh out of ideas." he drives off to worry about Megan taking off on her own. "Megan, please be okay. I really am sorry..." Soon enough, both Batgirl and Robin run into each other on a rooftop outside Mason's apartment. Robin tells her that she's an amateur and should stay out, but she refuses. "Under other circumstances this could be fun, but I have a job to do!"

Just then, Mason receives a phone call summoning him to a meeting.

"What's he saying?" Batgirl asks Robin.

But Robin tells her to keep quiet.

"Shh!"

And she didn't take it well.

"Dork." Each spy in their own way, learning where to go, but they don't share the information with each other. "Nice guy, but a few bats short of a belfry." she said about Robin's attitude. They follow Megan 'to get there first' to an old subway entrance. While Robin was stopping one thug at a time, Megan gets inside to bump into Batgirl. "Megan Tsuki?"

"Batgirl? Or should I say, Barbara Gordon?" Megan said it quietly.

Surprises Barbara for Megan to figure it out.

"Ah, no. I'm Batgirl at all…"

"Oh, please…I can tell that your voice, your eyes, and long red hair says everything about you." She said. "I know it's you after Batman and I told you to stay put."

"And let my Dad be a false criminal? Forget about it." said Batgirl. "I want to help. Seeing that Batman's partner Robin has arrived."

They see that right now to keep hidden.

"(Oh, perfect timing!) Fine, I won't tell who you really are, just be careful on what we're in right now. Just be ready to help me save Batman."

"The man being corner by Two-Face and his gang is Batman in disguise?" asked Batgirl. "Oh, and thank you for keeping my identity a big secret, girlfriend."

"Whatever, I just have a lot on my mind right now." Megan sees Manson with Two-Face. "Is that Gil Manson…I knew it! He's a dirty cop."

"I should've known too."

She was right about that and so was Robin, leaving Batgirl a bit surprise to know that something was up with that man. For them to have a talk and Two-Face shows 'Matches' to Mason, asking if he's an undercover cop. Mason says no, and complains about being called out for such a trivial thing. Two-Face reminds him who's boss, revealing his plan to the eavesdropping heroes: as Harvey Dent, he had Mason instated as Gordon's assistant, but after his transformation into Two-Face, he has been the one giving Mason tips, eliminating his gang rivals while boosting Mason's popularity.

"Don't get wise with me, Mason! Remember who got you set up as Gordon's assistant?" Two-Face said to the guy.

"Right, Harvey, right." said Mason.

Only for Two-Face to not question him twice already.

"Don't call me that! It's Two-Face to you, pretty boy!"

Soon, Mason will replace Commissioner Gordon while Two-Face himself becomes the biggest mob boss in the city. However, due to the recent snooping, Two-Face has decided to break Gordon out of jail that night and then do away with him. Batgirl moves in a bit closer to hear the rest for Megan tells her that it was a bad idea.

"Wait…! Barbara-! I mean, Batgirl. Get back here." She said quietly.

Batgirl is tripped by the trussed-up guard to fall on top of Robin, revealing their presence.

"Perfect, we got company!" said Two-Face. "Over there."

Two-Face and his thugs open fire, then flee with Mason for him to fight back in time as Matches 'who's really Bruce Wayne/Batman' warns them in time.

"Robin! Megan! Look out!"

Megan open fires right back to fighting while Robin gets Batgirl out of danger, only for Two-Face to hear Matches call out for Megan and Robin.

"Robin? Megan?" he gets his gun out to shoot Batman below the train tracks while hiding. "Robin? Megan? If he's Robin, and that's Megan, that makes you-" Two-Face started to fire rounds at Batman to know who he was.

Firing a lot of gun shots down below, as Two-Face, Manson, and Mad Dog get out of the train station in time before Megan could stop them.

"Gil! Hold it right there!" she said. "You, Two-Face, and Mad Dog are coming with me!"

Fighting with Two-Face, only for Mad Dog to open fire on her to move away allow Manson to help them get out of the place.

"Let's go!" he said.

Using explosives to collapse the building entrance. They'll drown to death! Well, they were trapped inside the place with Megan helping Batman out from being tied up and all as she uses her pocket knife to untie him.

"You okay?" she asks him.

"I'm fine, thank you." Bruce notice that something was on her mind. "What's wrong? We'll find a way out to stop Manson, Two-Face, and his other goons. Don't worry."

"That's not it…Batgirl just showed up to helped us out. And…look, Robin just…"

Bruce didn't have to know the last one to guess on that one.

"Don't tell me…" he leaves it be for not to not be a bit happy on. "Robin! I see you brought a date."

A little joke aside to know that everyone was alright which was good.

"Me? I thought she was with you! She's got your taste in clothes! Speaking of which..." he sees Megan. "Ah, hi Megan…"

"Save your flattering for later."

Barbara was surprise to see Megan was getting so much attention right now to be lucky, for some parts.

"I thought she was with me to come for all three of us really. (Dick. You, me, and Bruce will talk later.)" She said to give something to her partner. "Ah, Batman, here."

Batgirl was happy to see that uniform again thanks to Robin bringing it for him.

"Yes!" said Batgirl. "Am I glad to see you!"

Batman loses his disguise to change quickly without Batgirl or even Megan want to see him get undress in front of them.

"Do you mind?"

"Sorry." She turns away.

"Megan, I don't mind you watching me." He made a joke.

With him holding her hand, Megan still turns away.

"Maybe another time. (Not now, Bruce…)"

To make doubly sure, Two-Face detonates a bomb left on the wall of the abandoned line, letting in the river to flood the tunnel. Not good…! After Batman gets undress, he tells Batgirl of the dangers she was getting herself into.

"I don't know who you are or why you're doing this but let's get one thing straight: It takes more than a costume and an attitude to do this work."

"He's right, Batgirl." Megan said to keep Barbara's identity a secret. "You'll get hurt or worse…killed!"

Like that would stop this girl, Barbara was Gordon's daughter after all.

"Look, I have my reason to be doing this-!"

"You already mess up once, so just stay out of our way." said Batman.

Well, he was right but Batgirl had to do it. For a perfect two timing plan of Two-Face doing all of this to make Manson a big shot and still making crimes for once working with Rupert to get the goods, by setting up Gordon. To soon be killed by Two-Face's hands soon enough for Batman to guess on that to make Batgirl worried – to have a judge, the jury, and execution on her father. Not good!

"Guess it all make sense when you put them together." said Megan. "Should've known that Gil was a no-good timing creep!" she hits her hand on the walls.

Just then, the four hear something from inside the old subway tracks to get even louder. It was water running down.

"Sounds like a train." said Robin.

"No, it's water!" Megan was right again. "Get on top now!"

For her and Batman made it for Robin to be push away from the strong current as they and Batgirl uses a rope to save his life in time.

"Hold on…!"

Just in time too.

"Not bad…" he said to Batgirl. "Maybe there's some hope for you after all."

Not good, more water to be rising some more! The four hang on to dear life from drowning, as Batman blasts a hole in the wall of the tunnel, then sends Batgirl up with his grapple gun.

"Great, but only how do we get to it?" question Batgirl.

"Always carry a spare." Robin had a grappling hook on him.

Using that to shoot up and Megan's ribbon, they could get up now. As Batman grabs hold of Megan hold on to dear life and Batgirl had to go up first.

"You first. Use this button to go us and then send it back to us." He tells her.

"Wait." Robin also gives her a couple of Batarangs. "Just in case you run into trouble up there."

"Thanks."

Before she can lower it down again since Batgirl got up first, another surge of water sweeps the three away.

"Robin! Batman! Here comes another one!" Megan tells them. "Wipe out!"

This was really bad. As Gordon was still staying in his cell while talking to Bullock who was eating.

"If I ever get re-instated, Bullock, remind me to do something about the food in here."

He said, only thing get bad to worse for Two-Face's men to take Gordon way. Leaving Bullock useless to not get the cell key in time.

"Get some keys down here!" he tells the other officers. "Never a blasted cop when you need one!"

Batgirl calls the police station, but it is too late: Commissioner Gordon has already been broken out, and the damage to the phone lines caused by the explosion makes it impossible for them to understand her warnings. It's up to her now. This was going from back to worse now…Back in the tunnel, Batman and Robin manage to bust out by throwing the brake of an old subway car, but for how long can they stay in there?

"Think she made it?" Robin asks Batman.

"I hope so." he answers.

"Think we'll make it?"

And what's worse, Megan was out cold from getting push a lot from the oncoming water for Batman to keep her awake.

"Megan? Megan!" he was panicking to feel her pulse. "Good, she's all right. She just tired from getting us out of water. I just hope she got out the same we can try getting out of here."

"How do we even get out of here?" ask Robin. "The water will come through to drown us all if we don't come with something." He then checks on Megan. "How is she-!"

"Don't touch her!" Batman snaps. "As if you already did something that I should've known you would never do…"

So Megan told Bruce for Dick to hear about it. Now it was on, and the worse time to be fighting like this.

"Is that so, Bruce? Well, let me tell you something…you don't derive her."

"Excuse me?"

"You don't and you want to know why?" Dick tells him. "All you do is act like you flirt with women as Bruce Wayne while loving Megan as Batman to be a two timer to make her worry and jealous to other female villains having a piece of you to take it. And without thinking about her first to making her upset. She showed me the way when I was affected by the Scarecrow's fear gas! And you want to know another reason why I love her? Because I get her more than you ever would!"

Then Bruce said something back to Dick.

"I love her more than you know than another other male villain to love Megan back and keep Detective Bullock away from her!" he said. "I do get her but I have no choice but to keep the secret for people to think that when I'm Batman loves Megan more! I saw her first while you like Commissioner Gordon's daughter Barbara."

So Dick likes Barbara Gordon…How shocking.

"What does Barbara have to do with anything?" ask Robin.

"I see you hanging out with her to have a lot going on. You only love Megan because your heart is confusing you between one woman to another who's a bit older to seeing someone else to try deciding who you really love. I was even in love one time to be normal that made me on who I am today. I love Megan more because I get her than you do when we're on mission when you barley show up!"

Now he has really done it…

"Shut up!"

"Make me…!"

Ouch! From Robin punching Batman in the face for saying that, and him shoving him back. They started to fight with the water still rising inside the sub thing to really go at it over Megan's love as she wakes up to feel cool and was out for a bit and not dead to see what was happening, for two men fighting over one woman like her. Seeing that the water was rising for them to drown inside of it and there was no way out. Seeing that she had a plan only to use her baton to smack some sense into both Bruce and Dick just in time to hold their heads up and not to drown under water.

"(Really? Right now, at a time like this? At least Barbara got out to take some action…)" she hits the two boys. "Stop it! Bruce! Dick! Stop fighting over me this instant! We're going to die if we don't do something right now! No more! Dick, I'm sorry. You're a good person who deserves someone better than me. And Bruce, I would never cheat on you, they come on to me, okay? I do care for you more than any villain or Bullock. So please no more! Also, I think I got an idea…Bruce, go loosen the breaks."

Well, they felt silly to make it up afterwards once Megan puts her plans in to action. Batman goes under water to do just that for it might just work.

"I get it…on it, Megan, and I'm sorry."

"It's about time!" said Robin to be happy about it. "And…I'm sorry too, Megan. About this and from before."

Megan forgives Dick by hugging him.

"It's fine…" she said back. "I do love you, just not in love with you. It would've been different, but again. I'm already taken. He gets me. Anyways, hold on tight!"

Megan holds on to something for both Robin and Batman coming back up to do the same thing.

"Where are, we going?"

"We'll know when we get there." He answers back.

For Batman pulls down the lever to loosen the breaks to moving the cart, it skids to the end of the abandoned track and smashes a hole in the wall, emerging above the river. The three get up to the top in time before it could fell right into the waters, nicely done.

"Subways are getting more dangerous everyday!" said Robin. he then says something to Bruce next. "Listen, Bruce, I'm sorry…"

"Most likely." Batman said. "We've got to get to Bayshore wharf."

"Am I too, Dick." He said back. "Look…I love Megan and I know you'll love Barbara back, we'll leave it like that. But if anything were to happen to me, then..."

Now they're made up for Robin to finally understanding Batman for him to love Megan only, but she'll still care for him as her friend. No more fighting like that anymore after today.

"I know, just keep Megan happy then."

"And you back her up when needed too."

Now both Batman and Robin were back in the game with Megan to help them out.

"Now that's more like it." said Megan. "Anyways, Gordon, we need to save him next and help out Batgirl."

"You think they go the Commissioner?" Robin asks them.

"Most likely, yes." answer Batman. "We got to get to Bayshore Wharf right away. Come on!"

Robin follows both Batman and Megan since his shoes were still wet.

"Glad it's not far, I hate wet shoes!"

At Bayshore Wharf, Gordon is being held prisoner by Two-Face and his gang, and Mason is preparing to execute him personally while gloating about how he will become the next Commissioner and likely eventually Mayor.

"You're sick, Gil! A lot sicker than him! At least I can see his bad half!" angered Gordon who wasn't afraid to die. "I may not be around to stop you, but I know someone who will!"

But Batgirl appears and distracts them with a gas grenade, letting Gordon escape.

"Run, Commissioner!" said Batgirl.

And the shootout happens for the two to stay away from the gun fire to come up with something next.

"Batgirl, I presume." Gordon said to the new female super hero.

Batman and Robin arrive and quickly subdue Two-Face and his gang, and did Megan as well.

"Hiya, boys." Megan appears. "We're back and watch me remove your guns out of your hands in seconds. One. Two. Three." She shoots them out using her own. "Smoking!"

Robin shows himself to Batgirl for she was happy to see them alive and well.

"Miss me?"

"I think you're safe now, Commissioner." She said to him.

Mad Dog grabs a gun and opens fire until Robin throws him overboard. As for Batman and Megan stop Two-Face's other goons easily to stopping him next.

"You two have screw up with my plans for the last time, Batman and Megan!" he had his gun ready to fire on them.

Overpowering Batman for Megan to try kicking and punching him, to get kicked to her legs to fall to almost getting stabbed to hold him off. Batman saves her only for him to push him aside for them to give chase. When Mason jumps into a boat and speeds away, Batgirl runs after him and grabs one of the mooring ropes. For Batman uses his Batarangs to push the coin sign down and Megan shooting her weapon at Two-Face to remove it out his hands, she uses her baton next to send him flying.

"Hey, Two-Face!" she calls up to the villain.

"What?!"

"Tails, we win!"

One hit sends Two-Face flying to fall and then the coin lands on top of him, so he was done.

"That's a first: a coin flips Two-Face." Gordon made a joke.

With Gordon, Megan, Robin, and Batman now leaving Batgirl to stop Manson on her own.

"She's on her own now." said Batman.

"Hopefully she'll be fine." Megan worried.

Batman kept Megan close to his side to make her not worry so much. As Batgirl is dragged along, Mason empties his gun at her, but misses. Catching up to him, there is a struggle in the boat, and he rips off her mask.

"Now let's see who you really are!" he rips Batgirl's mask. "Barbara?! I didn't know it was you!"

"Would it have made a difference, Gil?" she knocks him out. Momentarily shocked to see it is Barbara, Mason lets go, and she delivers a kick that knocks him back and he hits his head on the transom so hard that he falls into a coma. As the boat careens toward the Gotham Statue of Liberty, she reluctantly pulls him free before it crashes. "I ought to leave you here..."

The other four see her doing a fine job, good thing that Manson won't remember that Barbara was Batgirl to then be arrested for good. At a press conference, an exonerated Gordon reports that Mason is still in his coma, but has been indicted nonetheless. In response to questions about Batgirl, Gordon gives his blessing for her to operate in Gotham.

"And what of the mysterious Batgirl?" Summer asks Gordon. "Who is she and where has she vanished to? Any thoughts."

"As far as I'm concerned, she's as welcome in Gotham City as the Batman." He said.

"Good to know, Commissioner. Welcome back." Summer said on her microphone.

Bruce Wayne, Megan Tsuki, and Dick Grayson are also in attendance. With Megan passing on something to Barbara as she was watching the rest and looking normal.

"Thanks for everything, Barbara, you were great out there." She said. "Just call if you ever need us to help you, or I'll call you up."

Welcome to the team, Barbara Gordon. AKA Batgirl.

"I think it'll be fun to hang out with you, Robin, and that handsome Batman…"

"Yeah…" Megan got a bit jealous there. "Hey! Handsome! Batman's mine! You hear me?!"

Well, she does a have a crush on Batman to watch out for Megan with Barbara here. Too young, don't you think? Dick asks Bruce what he thinks Batman would have to say about all this.

"Jealous, Megan?" Dick teases with Megan.

"Very funny…Well, she does mean well at least."

Then Dick asks Bruce about Batgirl joining the team.

"How do you think Batman will feel about that?"

Bruce says he supposes there's always room for one more and muses that they will see her again someday.

"I suppose there's always room for one more. And I have a feeling we'll see her again."

For Bruce to hold Megan's hand secretly to still care for her only, they think so as well.

"You could be right about that part, Bruce." She said.

Barbara, standing nearby, beams and says this part next…

"I wouldn't be at all surprised."

For Barbara to be hugging Gordon her father and was happy to be back on the police force to be proven innocent, all was well. For her as Batgirl would be good to have around as new super hero on the team. And for Megan to look out for a little to keep away from her Bruce/Batman very well. Jealously makes you do crazy things, huh? At least Dick/Robin still cares for Megan to one day find his true love for Barbara later to tell her on how he feels about her. Soon enough…
