Part 3
"Serena! Breakfast!" Irene Tsukino yells.
Serena Moonchild leaves her room, calmly walks down the stairs, and walks into the kitchen. She sits down, and waits for breakfast.
"So, how is school?" Ken Tsukino asks, as he sits down his morning newspaper.
"I am enjoying it," Serena replies. "I find that the school children make an interesting case study."
"…"
"Well, I'm glad SOMEONE likes school," Sammy Tsukino interjects.
After Serena and Sammy leaves…
"Do you find our houseguest…unusual?" Irene asks, while washing the dishes.
"She seems so…mature for her age."
"I know. We have to get her to loosen up."
At school, Serena is paying attention, while taking notes in class. She could hear whispers of derision, calling her a "goody-goody". On one hand, they were beneath her; on another, her loneliness was becoming more palatable.
Though, that might change.
During lunch…
"Is…is this seat taking?"
Serena looks up. Amy Anderson was another new student at Crossroads Middle School, and, like Serena, she was seen as an odd-ball.
"Hey, you can sit here," Molly Baker says, as she and her friend Melvin turn to notices Amy.
Melvin smirked, seeing Amy as a rival of sorts in the "brainy" department.
Meanwhile, later, across town…
"HA!" Ranma Saotome said, as he threw a round house at multi-millionaire Bruce Wayne. Bruce smirked, as he caught the fist, and proceeded to Judo throw him. Ranma, used Bruce as a fulcrum to attempt to leg sweep Bruce. Bruce saw this, and leaped out of the leg sweep. Finally, Bruce let go of Ranma, and got back into a fighting stance, as did Ranma.
"Ranma! Uncle Bruce! Dinner!"
Bruce smiled, as did Ranma.
"Race you!" Ranma said, as he took off for the dining room.
"How can it be a race, if I win?" Bruce smirked.
Ever since Ranma's father had died from an accident involving a pit of cats five years ago, it fell on Bruce's shoulder to continue to teach Ranma the tenets of the "Anything Goes Martial Arts". Years ago, when Bruce was younger, he was a student of a demented martial arts master, who was also a teacher of Genma Saotome and Soun Tendo. Out of the three of them, only Bruce's self-discipline, brought on by personal tragedy, kept him on the path of Justice. And it was because of this that Genma and Soun made a pact with Bruce, that if anything happens to them, Bruce would continue their children's training. Now, Ranma was Bruce's ward, and Bruce has made sure that Ranma has as much of a normal life as he could possibly have. Well, except for that time in China…
It should be mentioned that thanks to Genma's reputation for malfeasance, Bruce used his connections to create a second identity in America for Ranma. He took the name "Richard Grayson", after the untimely death of an entire acrobatic family, who was performing in Gotham at the time, after the mob had tried to extort money from them. The youngest Grayson's death allowed Bruce to use his identity to craft a new one for Genma's son, thus allowing Ranma to have a normal life.
At any rate, Bruce's outlook on life as improved because of Ranma. Bruce is still the grim avenger known as "The Batman", but with Ranma as his "Robin", Bruce could be himself, rather than using "Bruce Wayne" as a disguise. Recently, Bruce took Ranma back to Japan, not only to visit his mother, which is done on a regular basis, but to meet his fiancée. Of course Ranma's team-mate "Starfire", from the Teen Titans, didn't like this, since she had feelings for Ranma. Still, Ranma made Bruce promise not to push for the engagement, so that he could get to know the Tendo sisters better.
"There you are," Nabiki Tendo smirked. "I was wondering if you two would get here."
"Now, Nabiki," said Kasumi, her older sister. "You shouldn't be so rude to our guests."
"Hey, it's nicer than what I want to say," said Akane, the youngest sister. "I mean, really. Must you train ALL the time?"
"Daughter, a martial artist never stops training," said Soun. "Right, Bruce?"
"You said it, Soun," Bruce said, as he ate his meal. "So, have you talked to Akane about what we discussed?"
"Actually, I haven't."
"Okay, Dad," Akane demanded. "What have you two been talking about?"
"Well," Soun began. "Bruce and I were discussing on whether or not to let you become a 'superhero'."
"Really?" Akane replied excitedly.
"Indeed," Bruce replied.
"Aw, man!" Ranma rejected. "Do I have to work with an uncute tomboy?"
"Ranma, you jerk! I ought to-"
"Anyway," Bruce began. "With Ranma busy with the Teen Titans, I'll need help dealing with things in Gotham City."
"Does it mean that I'll have to…leave Japan permanently?"
"I'm sure that Soun and I can work out some arrangement-"
Bruce suddenly felt a disturbance. He was being beckoned to help…the Moon Princess.
"I…I have to leave," Bruce said, as he suddenly bolted right up.
"Bruce, do you need-?" Ranma began.
"No. Stay here."
Everyone was wondering what was going on.
A short time later, Batman stopped his Batmobile close to an after-school learning center. He got out, and used his gun-hook to get himself on the roof of the center. Quickly, he looked for a window on the roof, so that he can peer through it.
"Hmmm," Batman said, as he looked inside. He could see a pitch battle between the Silver Sailor Moon and some sort of creature. The creature then threw a flurry of CDs at the alien…
"AH!" Moon cried, as a CD sliced into her arm.
Batman desperately wanted to protect her. From what he knew of the alien, Moon was particularly vulnerable to magical attacks. So, after removing the sun-roof, Batman got his "bat-a-rang" ready…only to realize that he had that magical rose again. Shrugging, Batman threw the rose…and made his mark!
"AH!" the youma cried.
"Moon," Batman began. "no matter what, you will always have allies."
And with that, Batman slinked back into the shadows.
The Silver Sailor Moon blinked her pupil-less eyes, just as the new "Sailor Mercury" makes her appearance.
"Use your power Sailor Mercury!" Luna the Magical Black Cat says.
"Right!" said the blue-haired, short-haired girl in the fancy Sailor fuku, whose true identity was "Amy Anderson". Earlier, on the suggestion of Luna, Silver Sailor Moon had followed Amy, only to discover the presence of a Negaverse node. And it was during this battle that prompt Luna to release Amy's hidden power.
"Mercury Bubble BLAST!"
A fog bank covered the area, blinding the youma.
"Now, Silver Sailor Moon!" Luna cried.
Moon raised her hand.
"Moon Beam ELIMINATION!"
FWOOSH!
"Ahhhhhh-!"
After the battle, Moon took to the night skies. She was searching for Batman, but seemed to be unable to locate him. Ever since they had met, years ago, he reminded Moon of her Prince Endymion, the Prince of the Earth. Now, she was more than convinced that he may be the prince…her lost beloved.
"Endymion…" Moon said with sigh, as the rays of the Moon reflected off of her metallic skin. Even if her suspicions were correct, she would be unable to give her love to Batman.
Such is the way of a herald of Galactus.
Meanwhile, in the Negaverse…
"Now, will you let me help?" Mephisto asked.
"NO!" Queen Beryl replied, who was fearful of what might happen if Mephisto actually succeed in vanquishing. "We don't need your HELP!"
Mephisto smirked. It was only a matter of time before he will succeed in freeing his sister Metallia.
Fin.
