The Winning Edge
It had been a few weeks since her family was arrested after turning her back on them, and life had never been greater for Melanie Walker. Not only was she finally free of her old life of crime, but she also had the love of her life at her side, Maxine Gibson, who she found out was Gotham's new Dark Knight, Batgirl.
Some days after she'd moved in with Max, Melanie was able to get herself enrolled at Hamilton Hill High. Even though she was practically homeschooled by her 'parents', Melanie still had good enough grades to be accepted. After that, Melanie got to know Max's friends, Terry, Dana and Chelsea and they all got along well with Melanie, even going out with them sometimes. Melanie even got to know Terry's mother and little brother, and they were well fond of Melanie.
Yes. Melanie had finally the life that she desired. A normal life, away from her former family. However, during that night when Melanie and Max spoke again after the Royal Flush Gang's arrest, Bruce had heard through the communicator everything that Max and Melanie spoke, even hearing that the former member of the gang knew about Max's secret identity. So, since then, Bruce kept a close eye on Melanie, if she was keeping her word of not telling anyone about Max being Batgirl. But seeing that Melanie had truly changed, Bruce didn't say anything about it. Until...
In the middle of the night, somewhere in downtown Neo-Gotham, a suspicious ice-cream-truck drove into an abandoned alleyway. At the end of it, stood a group of five Jokerz. Their leader smirked once the ice-cream truck came to a halt. "Hahahaha. Time for something sweet." He and his gang chuckled.
The driver stepped out of the truck as the Jokerz walked over to him. The driver ensured them. "Now boys, don't crowd." Before he pressed a few buttons, opening the truck, revealing large amounts of guns and other weapons. Clearly showing he was an illegal arms dealer. "There's plenty for everyone."
Seeing all the sweet weapons, the gang leader was eager to try one out first. He took out a laser rifle and tested it out. "Hahahaha. I could have some laughs with this." When he fired at a garbage collector, it destroyed it instantly! The Jokerz leader smirked at how destructive these tools were. "Nasty."
But suddenly, he was disarmed by a batarang. He looked up, being shocked to see it was Batgirl! "Drop it clown!"
While Batgirl flew down, all the Jokerz were shocked to see her. "The Bat chick!" Before all quickly grabbed a gun and started shooting at her.
"Kill her!" the gang leader called.
Batgirl avoided the laser fire and landed before she easily knocked most of them out. But as the leader of the Jokerz was about to kill Batgirl, he was suddenly knocked out by a delivered kick from Melanie, now dressed as Ten flying on her old flying card before landing on the ground. Though Batgirl was first shocked to see Melanie, she was also proud of her for helping her. When the driver tried to make a run for it, Melanie grabbed him and knocked him unconscious before Both Melanie and Batgirl got out of the area as the police arrived.
As the cops arrived, arresting all the Jokerz and the illegal arms dealer, Batgirl contacted her boss from the top of a nearby roof while Melanie stood next to her "That's one less armed shipment that'll never reach the streets."
"With some help from your girlfriend, I see?" Bruce asked.
Feeling awkward as Batgirl reminded herself that Bruce could see what she was doing while wearing the Batgirl suit, she sighed before answering. "Yeah. I... assume you already knew about Melanie being a former member of the Royal Flush Gang?"
"Indeed." Bruce answered. After a short moment of silence, Bruce told Batgirl. "Come back to the cave. And bring your girlfriend with you."
Surprised that Bruce wanted Melanie to come with her to the Batcave, Batgirl looked at her girlfriend for a moment. Melanie was just as surprised as she was, but gave a ensuring nod.
Batgirl then told Bruce. "We're on our way." And once they entered the Batmobile, both flew in the direction of the Batcave.
When they entered it, Melanie could never have imagined in her wildest dreams that she would ever set foot inside the lair of Batman. As Melanie exited the Batmobile and removed her mask, she was astounded as she looked around. "Amazing. That nobody had ever thought that the legendary Batcave was all this time here."
But as they moved further, both were greeted by Bruce. Melanie was surprised to meet Bruce Wayne, one of the richest men in the world. "Bruce Wayne?" But then she figured out what this meant! "You... you're the Batman?!"
Bruce didn't show any emotion other than giving a sigh. "I once was. But not anymore."
When Max removed her mask, she asked her boss/mentor. "By asking to bring Melanie here, I'd say you're trusting her well enough to share everything with her as you have me?"
Bruce formed a small grin. "Not everything. But enough to share who I once was." Then Bruce said to Max. "Though I knew that your girlfriend knew about your secret identity, I didn't speak about this before as I was first... skeptical about Melanie turning away from crime. But seeing how she'd been doing the last few weeks on the streets, I'm now convinced."
Max raised an eyebrow when she glanced over to her girlfriend. "Last few weeks on the streets?"
Bruce gave a nod before pressing a button on the computer, showing on the screen some images of Melanie in her Ten costume, stopping several robberies, attempted assaults or rapes, beating those criminals before handing them over to the police until finally he showed the images of Melanie helping Batgirl to stop that illegal arms deal with the Jokerz.
While Melanie was at first not happy of being monitored all this time, she understood that 'Batman' had to be sure that she had changed.
Max then gave a surprise look to Melanie. "So that was you? You were the one that stopped those crimes when I showed up a bit later?"
Melanie gave a nod while stating. "I thought about all the pain and suffering I'd caused to the people when I was first part of my family's gang, how I could make it up to all of it. And... I was inspired by Max being Batgirl, so... I figured I wanted to use the mantle of Ten for the greater good this time, to make up for all the sins I've committed."
Being so proud of Melanie, Max shared a hug with her while Bruce formed a little smile, though being the world's greatest detective, he'd already figured out that Melanie would do anything to make up for what she'd done under the Royal Flush Gang.
Seeing that there were no further big crimes to solve, Bruce gave Max the rest of the night off.
Later, as they entered Max's appartement, Melanie apologized to her girlfriend. "Max, I'm sorry that I didn't tell you before of what I was doing. I was-"
But she was interrupted when Max planted a passionate kiss on Melanie's lips. After a few seconds, Melanie gladly returned the favor and both their tongues danced like a tango in their mouths. After a few minutes, Max slowly broke the kiss, leaving a trail of saliva, saying. "Don't feel sorry, baby. I'm so proud of you."
Melanie smiled as she rubbed Max's ass. "Thank you."
When both resumed their kiss, both touched and rubbed each other's body nearly everywhere as they stepped into their bathroom, quickly stripping off their clothes as they stepped into the shower, letting the warm water flowing over their naked bodies while not stopping their making out.
Max broke the kiss and went straight for her girlfriend's neck, kissing and sucking it while making her moan. "Ugh. Oh yes. Fuck me, baby! Oh yeah!"
Max smiled against Melanie's neck before going down to her breasts, sucking on her left nipple while squeezing the other one as her girlfriend held and ran her fingers through Max's hair before Melanie gently pushed her down to her pussy.
Max, knowing what her girlfriend wanted, immediately began to eat her out, sucking on her pussy as Melanie held her head in place. "Ugh! Oh yes! Eat me, baby! Eat my pussy! Oh fuck! I'm... gonna cum!" Melanie yelled out before she came in Max's mouth, making her swallow all her juices.
Max got up and kissed her girlfriend, making Melanie taste herself in her mouth, finding it sweet before her girlfriend broke the kiss. "Why so quickly, love? We're both night owls so I'm pretty sure we won't be sleeping anytime soon."
Melanie gave a seductive smile and answered. "Well, with the test coming up tomorrow, I'd rather not take any chances. The last thing we both need are Fs or Ds on it because we fucked all night." Before she kissed and licked Max's neck, making her moan. "And besides, we'll get plenty of time this coming weekend. Then we'll really go at it." Before she got to her knees. "But I still can repay you for eating me out so well." She said before eating out Max the same way her pink haired girlfriend did hers.
"Oh yeah, baby! Fuck! Eat me. Suck it hard, baby!" Max moaned before her girlfriend did just that while holding her ass, eating her out before Max climaxed into Melanie's mouth, making her swallow all her juices before the blonde stood up and gave her a sweet lustful kiss, letting Max taste her own juices, which she found just as sweet tasting as her lover's.
Once they cleaned themselves, getting each other in their hard to reach spots, they got out of the shower after turning it off and dried themselves before going to their bed and going to sleep for the coming day. Fortunately for them, they were both night owls and as such, they only needed almost 3 hours of sleep, which was more than enough to refresh them for the days after nighttime.
The next morning at Hamilton High
The whole class was busy on their computers, taking their mathematics test. While Melanie tried as hard as she could, Max was already done before her, scoring a A+. When Melanie was finally done and entered the final answer, she was relieved to have scored a B+. However, she was then surprised to hear some snoring next to her. She looked and was surprised to see that Terry had fallen asleep.
Melanie gave an elbow to him while whispering. "Terry. Terry!"
Terry woke up, disoriented. "Huh? Huh... what?" But when Terry looked at the screen, his time had already passed, thus scoring a D, making him groan in annoyance.
However, their teacher had noticed Terry being asleep during the entire class and said with a serious tone while readjusting his glasses. "Mr. Mcginnis, I see that gravity has gotten the better of you." While Terry tried to explain, the teacher gave a disappointed look. "I'm sorry that my tests aren't more stimulating." Before he then took out a disk and handed it over to Terry. "Perhaps this failure-to-perform-file will capture your attention? Take it home and have your mother scan it."
Terry took the disk, just as the school bell rang. "Class dismissed!" The teacher called.
Terry knew he was gonna be in trouble with his mother. "Great."
Dana snapped the disk away from her boyfriend, ensuring him. "Cheer up, Terry. There's more to life than Vectors and birtasees."
Terry sighed as he took his disk and placed it in his bag. "I know. It's just like mathematics is getting harder and harder each year."
Max walked over to Terry while advising him. "Maybe you could ask someone to help you better understand them?"
"Like you?" Terry asked her.
Max gave a shrug. "If you want?"
That was when Melanie told Terry while they all left the classroom. "It's also because you're spending so much time with Dana that you're barely paying any attention in class. No offense, Dana." Melanie quickly told Dana.
Dana gave an ensuring smile. "None taken." Then Dana got an idea what they could do. "What about we all go to the big game after school? I'm sure it'll help to forget today's test?" She asked Terry.
Terry formed a smile. "Sounds good. And I'm sure Chelsea would appreciate it if we would come and cheered for her new boyfriend, Mason."
Later at night
While the whole group was about to see the game after school, Dana whispered into Terry's ear. "Hey, Terry, about you sleeping in class today: do you think that it was because of that passionate sex we had last night?"
Terry blushed while silently admitting that it was indeed because of that. "Yeah. I think that had something to do with it."
Dana just giggled and softly said to her boyfriend. "Well, I look forward to having more sexy nights just like last night. Maybe during the weekend, we can fuck all night." She said seductively, making Terry blush even deeper.
But unknown to them, Max, thanks to her trained hearing, had heard every word that her friend had said and looked at them before winking her right eye with a small smile, making Dana blush, as she'd forgotten that Max had really great hearing that could pick up sounds from a mile away.
A bit later at the game
The game was going well, with both teams scoring until it was 10-10 and the visiting team scored a goal, making them 10 points ahead of the Gotham team as Chelsea cheered them on.
"How lame." Dana said, getting a nod from Terry.
"Yeah. That was kinda lame." Terry said before looking at Max and Melanie. "What do you guys think?"
"A game's a game, Terry. Doesn't matter who wins as long as I'm entertained." Max answered while adjusting her trench coat.
"I feel the same way. But after everywhere I've been, it's just great to actually enjoy a good sports game." Melanie added while leaning on Max, making her lover wrap an arm around her.
Meanwhile, Creagar, the over-competitive game coach, was berating his players for what he thought was under-performing. "Mason, what kind of a bonehead pass was that?"
"Sorry, Coach." Mason apologized.
"You sure are! In fact, you're the sorriest bunch of losers I've ever seen! I don't care what it takes, I want you to get out there and kick butt!" Creagar told his players, not caring about anything else but winning.
"Yes, Coach!" They said before all but Mason got back on the court.
But while Melanie was watching with a close eye, Mason rolled up his right sleeve and placed some sort of patch on his arm, which instantly bulged with his muscles before he got back on the court. When the game resumed, the visiting team was close to scoring again... before Mason, under the effects of the strange patch, checked one of his opponents so hard he pushed him through the wall of the court, almost hitting Terry and Dana, if he hadn't moved her out of the way, in the process. The referee objected to this, but the Coach thought differently. "Quit whining, it was a legal check. Nice but, kid." But Melanie and Max weren't so sure, as they both knew that something was wrong.
Later on
Terry and Dana were with Max and Melanie, talking about the game. "Wasn't that a great game, you guys?" Dana asked.
"It was. Been a while since I could actually enjoy a game without having to leave through the middle of it." Melanie answered with a smile.
"How about you guys go ahead, Terry? Melanie and I wanna go out for some ice cream. I'll meet up with you tomorrow night to tutor you for the next mathematics test that way you don't fail the next one." Max informed her friends.
"Sounds great, Max. I'll tell mom to expect you so she'll know you're coming." Terry said with a small smile.
"I'll go with you to your house, Terry. I could explain to your mom that it was kinda my fault for the file. Hopefully, she'll understand and ease whatever her reaction will be." Dana said softly to her boyfriend. "Besides, if we do it right and work on not failing, more time for us to spend a lot more sexy nights together." She said seductively, making Max and Melanie chuckle before they went their separate ways.
When Max and Melanie were out of their friends' hearing range, Max asked her girlfriend. "What's wrong, baby?"
"Well, I noticed that Mason guy was putting on a patch before he got back in the court. And it was bulging up his muscles. Which is, if I'm correct, against the rules in school sports." Melanie answered while remembering what she noticed back at the game.
But suddenly, Max's phone rang. "It's Bruce. He must have something for me." She said before answering the phone. "What is it?"
"I've been testing the new sky cam and picked up something at Vidcity electronics." Bruce informed his protege.
"What?"
"Late shoppers."
"I'm on it. But... would it be alright with you if Melanie came with me this time? She's been doing great with stopping crime in the city lately, as you've seen. So I don't think it would be so bad if she helped me out now that we both know." Max said, wanting her girlfriend to be with her this time.
"Yes. I figure that she'd ask you sooner or later and with the good she's been doing lately, I don't see any reason why she can't help." Bruce said, accepting Max's suggestion.
"Thanks, Bruce. You won't regret this." Max said before hanging up the phone and looking at Melanie with a smile. "Let's go suit up, baby. We're going to Vidcity electronics."
A bit later
3 teenagers were breaking into the display cases and grabbing the most profitable electronics they could find. "Hurry, grab the goggles." The leader told the other 2, who did just that.
One of them went in front of the TV screens and said. "Hey, check it out. I'm on the big screen."
But that was when Batgirl dropped in front of him and tripped him over. "What's the matter, boys? Nothing good on at home?"
That was when Ten got in front of the other one and punched him in the gut before throwing him to the floor. "Should have stayed home, creeps. Now you'll have to watch what they give you in juvie."
The leader made a run for it as the one Batgirl tripped over yelled out. "Mason, wait!"
"Mason?" Batgirl asked with disbelief, as she couldn't believe that her friend Chelsea's boyfriend could be the leader.
When Mason reached a dead end, he knew that there was only one way out of this and quickly took off his coat and took out the rest of the patches he had and put them on his arms and chest, making his double in size and his strength increase.
As Batgirl and Ten got to Mason, the Dark Knight said. "It's over, Mason."
"NO!" Mason yelled out before he suddenly punched Batgirl away from him before he broke off a mini satellite and threw it at Batgirl but she easily avoided it before Ten tried to punch and kick him. But shockingly his increased size and strength couldn't even phase Mason before he picked her up and threw her into a set of TVs.
Batgirl grew angry before she called upon the suit's full strength and tried to punch Mason but he easily caught her by the wrists and squeezed before picking her up. "HAHAHAHA! I'M RIPPIN'" He yelled before throwing the new Dark Knight into a wall, stunning her and allowing Mason and his friends to get away.
When Batgirl got free and helped Melanie, Bruce contacted them. "What happened?"
"Guess we both underestimated how strong they were." Max answered.
"Any idea who they were?" Bruce asked.
"Yeah. We know one of them. He's a jock named Mason and he's Chelsea's current boyfriend." Melanie answered.
The next morning
Mason, wait up!" Chelsea called out while chasing after her boyfriend, who didn't really look so good. "I didn't see you after the game. Where'd you go?"
"Out." Mason answered.
"Out where?"
"Guy stuff."
But then Chelsea noticed something. "You don't look so good."
"I'm fine." Mason told her, lying.
It was then that she realized why he wasn't looking good and was weak. "Aw, Mace, you're not using Sla-"
But Mason just yelled at her. "I don't have time for this, Chelsea!"
But Chelsea didn't want anything to do with Mason if he was really using those drugs like she suspected. "You're right, Mason. None of us do." She said before walking away, breaking up with Mason.
But unknown to them, Max, who was standing a distance away, had heard everything and smiled when Chelsea walked away from Mason, as at least she wasn't involved in Mason's slapper using or the robberies he and his friends committed to pay for them before walking up to her to talk to her.
"Chelsea. Chelsea!" Mason called out.
But that was when his friends walked up to him. "Hey, Mace, we've been looking all over for you." The one named Jody said.
"Did you unload the stuff?" Mason asked.
The one named Dirk handed him a cash card while answering. "Here's the cash. Got top dollar."
"Great. I'll meet you at the gym. Sometime tonight I'll let you know." Mason said before putting the card in his wallet, while his hand was shaking. The other 2 saw this and he asked. "What?"
"You don't look so good." Dirk said.
Later on
Mason was at the school sidewalk, waiting for the delivery of more slappers when he finally arrived. Once Mason gave him the cash card, the dealer gave him a bag full of slappers before quickly driving away.
Once Mason was sure he was alone, he rolled up his sleeve and patched a slapper on his arm, instantly feeling better because of the steroidal drug. "Yes." He said before walking back to the school. But unknown to him, Melanie was watching from inside the building with a serious look. She had to get those things and show them to Bruce. But not as Melanie Walker.
Later at night at the school gym
Ten had gotten to the locker room and broke into Mason's locker before quickly finding a bag full of slappers under a towel on his bag. "Jackpot."
But that was when she was struck from behind...by Creagar, who was in his sports uniform. "Hey, girly, don't you know no girls are allowed in here? I don't know why you're in here." He said before going for another attack that Ten avoided. "And frankly I don't care!"
Ten avoided another blow before she kicked the Coach into the other lockers, which didn't hurt him before he swapped her into the practice court, where there was no gravity. "I eat punks like you for breakfast, guys and girls alike!" Creagar said before Ten used a grapple line that Max had given her yesterday night to restrain his legs before she swung him hard into the left goal, making the right side show number 1.
"Sorry to spoil your appetite, Coach!" Ten said before kicking him as hard as she could in the face, knocking him out before she quickly got out of the court and escaping with the slappers.
Later at Max's and Terry's apartment building
Melanie had found Max in the elevator and quickly got to her as the doors closed. "Max, I know why that Mason boy was so strong. It was because of these patches." She said while showing her the bag.
"Wait. These are those slappers that's been on the news lately. Where'd you find them?" Max asked while looking at the bag.
"In Mason's locker at the school gym I had to break in as Ten to get these without being discovered as Melanie Walker. Somehow, these things are increasing the users size and strength, like a steroidal drug. And if I'm right, Mason and his friends have been using these for a while. And that dipshit of a Coach is intentionally looking the other way while they use these, just because he wants to win those stupid games." Melanie answered.
Max knew this was troubling and that Bruce needed to get a look at the slappers to see what was in them and who was making them in order to stop them. She put her hands on Melanie's shoulders and said to her. "Get them to Bruce, baby. He's gotta see these things and what's in them. I'll meet you at the Batcave as soon as I get done tutoring Terry."
"Okay, baby. I love you." Melanie said with love as the elevator stopped at Terry's apartment floor before Max got out and waved at her lover before the doors closed and the elevator went down.
Max then adjusted her trench coat and bag before walking into Terry's apartment. "Mrs. Mcginnis, I'm here." She called out.
"Hi, Max. Terry told me you were coming. Where's that nice girlfriend of yours?" Mary asked with a smile.
"Melanie's going to fill in for me to run errands for Mr. Wayne. I told him about her and he said until I got finished here with Terry that she could fill in for me." Max explained before looking around for Terry. "I take it Terry told you about the demerit file?"
"He did. And I was about to ground him until further notice, but Dana explained that it was her fault he fell asleep in class and apologized for it. Terry did too. Said they lost track of time the night before and Terry forgot to come home cause he ended up sleeping on the couch at Dana's. After they explained everything and promised me that it wouldn't happen again, I reduced his punishment to at least a week. He also told me that you're going to help him with his mathematics tonight?"
"I am. Just until he understands the mathematics of this year. Hopefully it'll do him some good that he won't need any more help and won't come home with another demerit file next year or any other year after until he finishes school." Max answered while smiling. "Where's Matt?"
"Terry's preparing him for bed. After that, he's all yours until his bedtime." Mary answered before Terry came out of Matt's room and quietly closed the door.
"Matt's asleep, Mom." Terry whispered before seeing Max.
"That's good, Terry. Because your private tutor's here." Mary said while pointing her thumb at Max.
"Let's get to work, Mcginnis. And I hope that for both our sakes, this is a 1 time deal." Max said with a smirk.
Later at the Batcave
Max had arrived before getting a kiss from Melanie. "Sorry I'm late, Bruce. Had to tutor Mcginnis. So, did you find out what's in those slappers?"
"Yes. It's Venom: a highly addictive steroidal drug. Only one man has the formula." Bruce answered before showing Max an image of one of Batman's old enemies. "Bane."
Max glared, having studied up on Bane and how his Venom drug granted him immense strength to compete and even surpass Batman in terms of pure strength and endurance. "I've studied up on him." Max said with seriousness.
"I've heard of that guy from my so-called parents. They said he was one of Batman's strongest enemies, next to Killer Croc." Melanie added after her lover and girlfriend. "They also told me out of all of them, besides themselves, that he was never sent to Arkham because he wasn't insane or had any mental problems."
"And they were right. But now you're both going to meet him as well." Bruce told them both.
"Good. We stop Bane, we stop this whole Slapper problem. Where is he." Max asked while taking out her suit.
Later
As Batgirl and Ten were flying to Bane's location on a remote island estate, Batgirl contacted Bruce on the vehicle's video link. "Are you sure Bane's here, Bruce?"
"He's there alright. It's been 20 years since he left prison, but I've made it my business to keep track of his whereabouts." Bruce answered before advising them both. "Remember, he was a formidable opponent. Be careful, both of you."
While Batgirl hooded, showing that she took her mentor's advice to heart, Ten wasn't convinced Bane could be a threat now that he was probably into his 80s by now. "Come on, he's gotta be in his eighties by now. I mean what trouble could an old man-" She said before remembering that Max had told her that Bruce could still handle himself in a fight, even at his age and with his declining health. "Oh. I take that back. We'll be careful, Bruce. Promise."
After they snuck into Bane's estate, knocking out any guards they found, they tied up Bane's attendant, Jackson Chappel. "Where's Bane?" Batgirl asked with an intimidating look.
"In there." Chappel answered while pointing to the room straight ahead.
After Batgirl and Ten opened the door and turned on the light in the room, they saw the man they were looking for. "Bane!" Ten said while fully opening the door.
But when they clearly saw Bane, Batgirl and Ten were shocked and to see that his once powerful physique had long wasted away to nothing, and he was now looking so weak that he could barely move and what was worse was that he was now hooked to an advanced respirator just so he could breathe. In short, Bane was now completely incapacitated, leaving him a complete contrasting shell of his former self.
Batgirl turned to Chappel and asked. "What the hell happened to him?"
"Too many years on Venom. That's what the stuff will do to you." He answered while explaining that Bane's fate was because of his decades-long use of Venom.
Batgirl and Ten seemed to be satisfied with that answer before they untied Chappel and left. As they were outside of the wall, Bruce asked them. "It was a dead end?"
"Yeah. Looks like that Venom shit is just like any other drug: long term use, especially decades-long, eventually takes its toll on the body and leaves you in even worse states than you were before you start using." Max said with disgust for drugs, and now she added Venom to the list.
"But if Bane's not making the Venom, then who is? From what I've heard about him, it's very unlikely he'd want anyone but himself to even know about the formula for that shit." Ten said with worry, as only Bane knew how to make the Venom but never shared the formula with anyone due to wanting it only for himself.
The next day
Back at the school, Mason and his partners were practicing for the next game. But because of them not having any Slappers to use, they were doing even worse than they were before, especially Mason, who was quickly going through the symptom of withdrawal from Venom, being so weak that Creagar easily knocked him into a wall.
"Wake up, Mason. My grandmother can hit harder than that." Creagar told him.
"I don't feel so good." Mason said before his friends helped him up.
"Can we take 5, Coach?" Dirk asked.
"Am I working you ladies too hard? Tough! Cut it out or hit the showers!"
When Mason and his friends walked into the locker room, Mason complained. "I can't even get through practice without a Slapper."
"Yeah. I'd be nice to have one." Dirk complained, as because of Ten taking their stash, they were all going through withdrawal.
"It wasn't my fault! I don't know who took them!" Mason said with frustration.
"Hey guys, no sweat. Look what I found at home." Jody said with a smile while getting out a cash card, making the other 2 smile as well.
Later at night
Mason took the cash card to the next drop off and the supplier quickly arrived before the addicted jock walked up to the driver's side. "You got them?"
"Not this time!" Batgirl yelled out before Mace was hit by a batarang and she glided down to them while Ten flew down on her card.
"Batgirl and Ten!" Mason said with fear, making the supplier quickly speed away while Batgirl quickly threw a tracker on the back of the car.
But Mason was so pathetically needy that he tried to run after the car to get more slappers but quickly fell down because of the withdrawal weakening him before Batgirl and Ten looked at him with disgust before restraining him for the police.
They then followed the supplier to the old Gotham Herald building and landed the Batmobile before contacting Bruce. "That must be the hideout." Batgirl told her mentor.
"The old Gotham Herald building? It's been abandoned for years."
"Sure. But it's a great hiding spot for something like drugs. I mean, nobody would even think to look in a place like that, considering that newspapers are long outdated." Ten said before Batgirl opened the door and they got out of the flying car.
Meanwhile inside of the building
The supplier and boss of the slapper dealing had gotten to the lab and got out of his car, much to his employees' confusion. "You're back early, boss."
"No deliveries tonight, thanks to Batgirl and her new partner." The boss said with contempt.
But as if on cue, Batgirl and Ten burst through the skylight before the Dark Knight asked. "Somebody mention our names?" Before the boss turned around, revealing himself to be Chappel. "You. We should have known." She said with a glare.
When the employees tried to shoot them, Ten threw a card that exploded into knockout gas, knocking them all out before she and Batgirl jumped on Chappel's car. "How'd you con the formula out of Bane?"
"In the end, he needed Venom just to keep going. It got so bad, he couldn't even make it himself. He had to trust someone." Chappel answered, revealing that Bane's condition only got worse to the point where he couldn't even make the Venom himself, and that he became so desperate to have Venom just to stay alive that he had no choice but to entrust the formula to his attendant.
"And now you're cashing in by selling that poison to kids?" Batgirl asked with disgust.
"That's right." Chappel answered with no remorse as he took off his shirt, threw it at Batgirl and put 4 slappers on both his arms, increasing his strength and doubling his size as he groaned from the effects.
As Batgirl called upon the suit's full strength and Ten nodded at her lover, Chappel threw an oil drum at them but they avoided it before Ten jumped on the pumped up thug and tried kicking his chest but it didn't work as he just pushed her off before Batgirl tried punching him in the face several times and while it did seem to have a little effect, it didn't really hurt him, as Chappel swapped her into his car before he tried to smash her but Ten got her lover out of the way before she kicked him hard in the face, which seemed to work before Chappel countered by uppercutting her and tried to punch her again but she avoided the other 2 blows and another that hit the wall before Ten grabbed his legs and allowed Batgirl to grab and threw Chappel into a wall before she tried jumping on his chest!
But this didn't hurt Chappel, as he grabbed Batgirl by the neck and tried to choke her but she headbutted him, making him let go before she jumped back, allowing Ten to try to hit him with a metal bar, which didn't hurt the overpowered thug before he grabbed the bar and threw Ten back and tried throwing it like a spear at her before Batgirl got her out of the way.
The 2 lovers then jumped on the slapper making machine and Ten threw a card that restrained Chappel for a few seconds before he used his drug increased strength to break out of it and climbed on the machine as Batgirl and Ten got to the upper bridge as Chappel grabbed the safety railing and broke a large part of it off before Batgirl threw a batarang at the start up button, turning on the machine and making Chappel fall down before he got back up and jumped after Ten before Batgirl grabbed him and threw him away from her, making him land on the slappers and getting a large portion of them on his body, triggering a massive and painful overdose that increased his muscles far beyond what they should be, similar to how Batman caused Bane to overdose on Venom by stabbing a Batterang into his old Venom disruptor many years ago.
As Chappel walked around hold painfully holding his head, Batgirl and Ten jumped down and casually walked up to the overdosed thug before he grabbed them both by the ankles and threw them into a wall before they got back up and Batgirl threw a batarang at the Venom formula, making it explode in Chappel's eyes, blinding him and making him yell in pain!
"You want us, you drugged up piece of shit? We're right here!" Ten said with hate for the drugged up thug while leading him away from her lover.
Chappel, now nearly insane with rage, yelled out. I'LL KILL YOU BOTH!" Before he swung his arms around wildly as Batgirl got her lover and grappled them out of the way as Chappel hit the machine, causing a massive explosion that destroyed a majority of the lab!
As Batgirl and Ten got up from the rubble, Bruce contacted them. "Max, are you and Melanie alright?"
"We're fine, Bruce." Batgirl answered.
"What about Bane's friend?"
Ten quickly found Chappel and saw that his eyes had rolled into the back of his head as he was now nothing but a brain-dead vegetable because of the overdose and the explosion he caused. "Brain-dead. That Venom really is just like any other drug out there, especially when it's massively overdosed."
Later on
After Max and Melanie had returned home, both were exhausted after their fight with Chappel. After they put their suit's away and Max hung her trench coat, both sat down at the couch while watching the news on TV.
They saw on the screen how Mason and his two friends, together with their coach who tried to cover his face out of embarrassment, were escorted out of the school in handcuffs, while the news host said. "Tonight we have a real sports scandal for you folks. Three Hamilton Hill High school athletes were arrested last night, charged with using slappers. Although their coach denies any involvement, he's been giving a 'time-out' from teaching, pending the investigation."
Melanie shook her head in disgust while listening to this. "Unbelievable that that dickhead of a coach would just allow his students to use venom, just to win at any cost."
Max agreed with her girlfriend. "Indeed, baby. It sickens me that some teachers out there would allow this kind of thing to happen, while they are supposed to be an example for their students." Then she moved Melanie closer to her. "Good thing that you noticed it sooner before I did. After tonight, you might have saved even more kids' lives to stay away from Slappers. And thanks to you, and with Bane and his friend unable to make Venom anymore, Bane's terror to Gotham is finally finished for good."
Melanie glanced at Max while forming a flirty smile. "So did you, Max. And at least we won't have to worry about fighting another Bane anymore."
Both were this close to kiss, but their moment was disturbed when the doorbell ringed, making both raise an eyebrow at who it could be at this hour. However, Max got a good idea who it could be as she curiously walked up to the door and asked. "Who is it?"
"It's me." The one behind the front door answered. And by the sound of his voice, it was Bruce.
Max opened it, confirming that it was her boss/mentor. "Oh... Bruce. I didn't expect to see you here."
Bruce formed a little smile. "I know. I wanted to do this personally, if you don't mind?"
When Max allowed her boss/mentor to enter their home, Melanie stood up from the couch when she saw that it was Bruce Wayne and gave the former Batman a friendly nod.
Max then asked Bruce when she closed the door. "It must be very important for you to come to our home personally, Bruce, especially at night."
Bruce gave a nod. "It is, Max." He said before he then glanced back at Melanie and handed her over a package. "I figured that considering your past, your Ten costume would be inappropriate. I believe this one would suit you better, Miss Walker."
Confused, Melanie took the package. When she opened it, she was surprised to see inside a whole new costume. It was pure black as Max's, but had several black-blue armor pieces attached to it as well as a mask that could cover all but her jaw. And on the chest was a blue Falcon symbol and was made to be worn by a woman.
Max instantly recognized it as it was similar to the costume of Nightwing as she too checked the outfit "But... this is..."
Bruce nodded as he stated. "Another suit that I had been working on, but I stopped after I... retired. After Melanie's performance in the last few days, and weeks, I've restarted working on it, while making some small changes in it, making it more suitable for Melanie."
Seeing that Bruce Wayne offered her a whole new costume, Melanie knew this could mean only one thing. "Mr. Wayne. Does this mean, you-"
"Yes." Bruce answered before Melanie could finish her sentence. "Considering how much you've helped in the last few days and cleaning up the streets the last few weeks, I could use another ally to keep Gotham safe, and as another assistent of mine." Both Max and Melanie had lost for words while Bruce formed a grin and extended his hand to Melanie. "What do you say?"
Slowly, a smile formed at Melanie's face as she took Bruce's hand and shook it. "I'm in, Mr. Wayne."
Bruce gave a nod while saying. "Welcome to my world... Nightwing."
The next night
Melanie, now wearing her new Nightwing costume. She sat next to Max, now in her Batgirl costume while driving the Batmobile. Melanie had tested out her new high-tech costume back in the Batcave in a simulation and was surprised at how much her strength and agility had increased. "I have to give him credit, baby. Bruce Wayne sure knows how to make a costume."
Batgirl could only smile, seeing how 'hot' her girlfriend was, wearing her new identity.
Just then, Bruce contacted Batgirl and the new Nightwing. "I've detected some strange activity at the Gotham City Bank. Any communication didn't go in or out in the last ten minutes."
Bruce then showed the last recorded security footage near the Gotham City Bank, seeing a group of fifteen criminals entering through the 'employee entrance'.
Batgirl shook her head. "Bank robbers. To think that there's still criminals these days that like to steal money the old fashioned way."
Melanie formed a grin while putting on her new high-tech eye mask. "A good moment to introduce myself."
Batgirl formed a smile too and went full speed ahead toward the bank.
Inside the Gotham Bank, three criminals were using their laptops to hack into the remaining security systems. One smiled evilly as his screen showed. 100% complete. "We're in."
Suddenly, the big vault door opened, showing billions of old fashion dollar bills. While five of them went inside to load as much cash as they could carry in their large sport bags, one asked their leader in confusion. "I don't get it boss. Why would we steal these old paper bills? Everyone now uses cash cards."
Their leader just smirked as he explained. "Not to worry. I know someone who can turn these old Benjamin Franklin's into plastic gold smooth. By tomorrow...these paper bills are worthless. Well... unless some homeless people want to burn them up for some campfire." He then laughed, followed by the others.
"Not gonna happen, slik!" a woman's voice suddenly was heard.
All the criminals looked up, seeing Batgirl jumping down and knocking out two of them with one blow.
"It's Batgirl! KILL HER!" The leader ordered, making everyone grab their guns and start shooting at Batgirl! But she was able to avoid their fire and knocked out several with her fast punches and kicks.
However, another one on the floor above grabbed his sniper rifle and aimed at Batgirl's head while smirking. "Time to put you to sleep, girl."
But as he was about to pull the trigger, he was suddenly disarmed by a thrown batarang. He angrily looked back at who'd thrown that batarang, only to look in shock before Nightwing knocked him unconscious with a heavy kick to the face!
While Batgirl took out all the thieves at the ground floor and Nightwing took out the remaining ones at the floor above, the leader of the gang used this moment to take two bags full of money and make a run for it. As he exited the emergency exit, he sprinted as hard as he could to a nearby car, clearly being stolen to be used as a clear escape.
He smiled brightly as he looked at his two filled bags. "Well... more money for myself." But then, Nightwing landed in front of the gang leader, stopping him in his tracks, making him nearly fall back in shock.
While Nightwing marched at the gang leader with a serious face, he threw one of the bags at her but easily avoided it. The gang leader then tried to deliver a fierce punch, but Nightwing blocked it with her left hand and delivered a fierce right uppercut! The gang leader fell a few steps back before trying to deliver several blows at Nightwing, but easily blocked and avoided them while returning many punches and kicks before the gang leader hit the wall at his back hard.
Nightwing marched up to him, as the gang leader's fear increased before she then grabbed him by the collar.
Being afraid and confused, the guy asked. "You... You're not Batgirl...! Wha... who-what are you?!"
Melanie held him closer, introducing herself in her new identity. "I am Nightwing." Before she then pinned him with his belly to the ground and put some cuffs on him while strapping him to a pipe.
Batgirl then arrived, seeing that Nightwing had already apprehended the gang leader. "Nice work, Nightwing."
Nightwing just gave a shrug. "Didn't really put up a good fight."
Then both could hear police sirens coming in closer. Knowing they had to leave, they nodded and flew away, using their jet boots and retractable wings. While Max's were bat-like, Melanie's were more eagly-like. After entering the Batmobile, they flew away from the bank.
When they were away from the area, Batgirl then contacted Bruce. "We've stopped the robbery. The police will take care of the rest."
Bruce gave a nod. "Good. I'll keep you guys updated for any other criminal activity."
Batgirl nodded and pressed a button before breaking contact. She then sighed, knowing from experience that sometimes it could take long before another lead would show up, Batgirl checked the clock and told Nightwing. "Usually the next lead would show up within 15 minutes, on an average."
Nightwing moved some of her hair behind her right ear and seductively asked her lover. "And... the longest one?"
"Well, those don't come along that much, but if they do, it takes more than an hour before..." But Batgirl slowly stopped as she felt Nigthwing's left hand rubbing between her legs. "...before they would... show up..."
Nightwing moved closer to Batgirl, rubbing her girlfriend between the legs and slowly massaged her breasts as she softly said in her ear. "Plenty of time to show you my... appreciation... baby."
Feeling turned on by her lover's/partner's seducing skills, Batgirl made the Batmobile to climb to a higher altitude. When it came to a stop, Batgirl pressed a button, creating a fog around them for some... privacy. Batgirl then switched on the autopilot and then grabbed Nightwing and pulled her closer to her, making her sit on her lap.
Nightwing gasped of this sudden reaction, but formed a seducing smile again while removing her mask and Max's mask too before Max and Melanie just stared at each other for some seconds with nothing but love and lust in their eyes and then instantly embraced in a passionate kiss.
Meanwhile, in the Batcave
Unknown to them, Bruce had actually heard the whole thing. The old Dark Knight gave a short look at his dog, Ace, who gave a bark. Bruce gave a nod and pressed a button, breaking all communications with the Batmobile, so his 'assistants' could have the privacy they wanted for their 'moment.'
"You're right, Ace. Everyone deserves their privacy for their moments. Although... this will take some time to get used to." Before Ace walked next to his master while Bruce scratched him behind the ears.
Back with the 2 Dark Knights
Max and Melanie stripped themselves of their upper costumes, only showing their bras while continuing their passionate kiss and touched each other everywhere while their tongues dueled in a wild tango in their mouths and soon, they disposed of their bras massaging each other's breasts.
When they broke their kiss to catch their breaths, Melanie kissed down Max's neck while softly rubbing her lover's breasts and twisting her nipples. "Aaah... yes... yes! Ooh Melanie!"
Max then pressed a button, making her seat swoop back, making her to lie down while Melanie was on top of her. Both kept touching and kissing each other while struggling to gain control as they disposed of their pants and panty's. But Max in the end got the upper hand and pushed Melanie down to the side while fingering her girlfriend and kissed her at the same time.
Max fingered Melanie so good and so fast, making her go crazy as she grabbed the side of the cockpit. "Oooh! AAH! Oh yes baby! That's it! Yeaaaah!"
Melanie quickly returned the favor and fingered Max the same way while sucking on her nipples. "Oh fuck, yeah! Finger me baby! Finger me like there's no tomorrow! Yeeeah!" And not long after, both climaxed at the same time, releasing their juices.
After some time of recovering, Melanie smirked and quickly took control by pushing Max aside and went down to her wet clit, licking and sucking it, making Max let her girlfriend have her way as it felt so good, while also making her play with her own breasts to increase the pleasure. "Yes! YES RIGHT THERE! OH YEAH...! FUCK ME!"
After Max climaxed in Melanie's mouth, drinking all her juices, Max did the same to Melanie, eating out her pussy and making her blonde lover play with her breasts as she moaned out. "Oh yes, baby! Just like that! Right there! Oh fuck yes! AHHHHH!"
After Melanie climaxed in Max's mouth, they got into position and began rubbing their vaginas together, scissoring each other so hard and moaning like crazy, that Melanie accidentally pressed a button, turning on the big flamethrower of the Batmobile, shining through the fog like a bright star as they reached their biggest climax of the night together.
As Max and Melanie breached slowly in each other's arms, both sweated heavily of this lovemaking in the Batmobile as It was so hot that it made the windows foggy.
Melanie then whispered in Max's ear. "That was... amazing..."
Max nodded. "Yeah..." Then, as Max saw how messed up the Batmobile was, she chuckled.
"What?" Melanie asked, confused.
"Well, I think... Mr. Wayne is probably gonna make us do a... double shift... when he sees how much we've messed up in here?"
Melanie giggled. "Yeah... but as long as we're doing it together... it was totally worth it."
"Damn right... baby." Max said sweetly while rubbing her lover's hair.
Both shared one final long passionate kiss, before cleaning a bit inside and putting their costumes on before flying back to the Batcave.
There you go, my dear friends, the Winning Edge is complete. Next will be the Spellbound episode, where Batgirl and Nightwing face off against a new deadly foe while finding a way to fight the ability he possesses. Rate and review and I'll see you next time, my dear friends.
