AN: Hi again! Please don't grind me into a pulp, it took me a little bit to refine how exactly I want to end it. I have it now, and as it is summer, it will definitely be done before fall. Thank you for reading (if you have read this far) I love reviews and you guys have been great! If you have not reviewed and are just reading I hope you are enjoying the story and that you will review when its over. If not thank you for reading! Okay so this isn't the last chapter I'm just pretending it is lol. There will be at least one or two more. I decided I wanted to start this as a flashback, so we're going back to the past when Bruce was still Batman, the time is just before he retires. (at least at the beginning…) Tom is c) DC comics although they never really gave him a name or a personality. He inspired me to do this, however I'm not sure about Melody so please keep me informed about her. I will use ( ) when speaking ooc about the flashback ordeal so you don't get lost, here we go!

Bruce watched as the thieves packed into the armor truck. It was just a routine night and Bruce had been tracing these guys for weeks. He went into action.

A couple of minutes later they were all wrapped up and police signals could be heard in the distance. He escaped to a rooftop and watched as the perpetrators were arrested and charged for their thievery. He then turned to the side of the street where the car was waiting.

He jumped down and instantly heard footsteps. Hiding in the shadows he saw her familiar form.

Talia looked around for him. "Batman I know you're here, I have something I need to tell you…" She said not seeing him through the darkness.

Bruce stepped out he looked at her suspiciously.

"You have a son, Batman, his name is Tom." She said looking at him with tears threatening to form in her eyes. "I put him up for adoption. 20 years ago"

(4 years later, different point of view.)

Melody ran when she found out what had happened. Tom… dead? She continued running, tears streaming down her eyes. She could hear her dad storm out the door. She knew he would catch her but she didn't care she ran on.

"Melody!" She heard him yell. She tripped and fell onto the ground. She started beating it, beating all her rage out.

She felt hands grasp her shoulders comfortingly but nothing could ever stop the pain… nothing could ever stop the tears.

"Melody…" Her dad said quietly.

She looked up at him, into her father, her hero, her role model, even when he wasn't playing the part as Superman. She had always been a daddy's girl and she used to be laughed at for it.

"Dad… I'm pregnant…"

(end of flashback)

Dana parked across the street from the harbor and turned off her car. She found herself trembling and thoughts were rushing through her head. Could he really be alive? How? Wasn't he dead? She opened the door and stepped out, everything around her did not seem to matter. Her heart was pounding powerfully in her chest, and her thought was dry. She looked around, unsure of where to go, unsure of whether she wanted to go. A car pulled up in front of her. She watched as if she were standing outside her body as the window rolled down. She watched as a fist came and slammed her upside the head. She did not watch herself black out, or fall to the ground…

The door opened and Terry's crystal blue eyes followed the sound to the door. Today it was not Psycho who walked in, instead Spellbinder looked from the hall.

"We have a guest and he asked to see you," Spellbinder stated simply.

He walked into the room and went to the control panel for the device sustaining Terry. Terry remained quiet as the red light cut off. Spellbinder continued to type until the metal restraints let him free. Spellbinder walked behind him and grabbed his wrists.

"Just because you have no restraints doesn't give you any obligation to attempt to escape,"

Terry felt something press into his skin on the back of his neck. He let out a moan before falling to the ground. What does he have? Terry thought to himself as he felt his strength rapidly decline. He began to struggle, to fight back. Then the pressure on his neck ceased, as did the feeling of weakness.

"Cooperate or I will do that again except next time I will not take it off. Now get up and move," Regaining his breath, Terry did as instructed.

Eventually he was directed into a small room where he found someone who couldn't be there staring back…

Dana woke up and looked around. She was encased in a dark room. Soon she realized that she had an intense migraine. She reached to her head and felt a gigantic knot. She heard a laugh and took her hand away from her head and looked around her. The dark was so complete she couldn't even make out a silhouette.

"Don't worry, I know you can't see me and for a while you won't see anything at all. Your lover boy will soon be here," He laughed hysterically and she heard a door open and slam closed. Then silence, as she sat alone in the cold black room…

Terry glared as Lex Luthor studied him.

"So this is him?" He asked as if Terry were a thing.

An interruption occurred as Psycho made his way into the room. He looked pleased with himself about something. "She is here," He stated with a devilish grin on his face.

Lex smiled "Bring her here," Psycho nodded before leaving the room. "You have certainly grown Terry," He stated as though they had known each other for years.

Hatred filled Terry's eyes and he then spoke, "You died years ago,"

"Really? Who told you that? Bruce?" He grinned, "I almost died and then I found someone who could help, someone who restored my life and my youth! His name was Ra'az Al Ghoul, you've met him, however you only saw him when he had to kill his daughter to live. It's a pity, the man was great, someone you should look up to," Terry remembered, he remembered when 'Talia' had returned offering Bruce a new life with her. He remembered how they discovered it was only her father who had stolen her body to survive. He remembered watching him and what was left of Talia die.

"Why are you here?" He asked. Another interruption occurred as Psycho slammed into the room throwing Dana down to the ground. She looked up and saw him. Their eyes locked for the longest time and Terry saw a tear roll down her cheek, his heart stopped.

"Your question will soon be answered Terry,"

Author: If I had a nickel for every time I left you guys with a cliffhanger I would be rich really fast! Hopefully this time it will be the last lol. Sorry I just have to say this, yes Bruce had a kid with Talia. Everyone always thought that it was him and Catwoman, well according to the comics its not. It was supposed to be him and Talia, and those people who keep writing these fanfictions with him and Selina is grinding on my last nerves, I just needed to clarify this. Sorry I'm really sleepy so I'm off for the night, the next chapter will be the last I think, so… yeah… I hope you enjoyed this chapter please tell me your opinions on it, its one of my faves!
