A/N I hated the way Arnold and Uma looked in the movies. So think of Mr. Freeze and Poison Ivy as looking more like they did in Batman the animated series.

Thanks for all the great reviews. Too Anthony1 those chapters were new. And the Justice league and SuperGirl don't exist in this fic. I want to cross over with a few things, but I still want it to remain realistic. By adding to many people, the story becomes to comic book like.

Also a special shoutout to hattenjc, tdmasternl,Barshadatsky Roman, AnimeRonin, Mystiksnake, and Garg oyl for your reviews.

Chapter 14

World's Finest pt.2

"S...Superman?" Buffy asked in awe as she instintively took a step back. She had thought the man a myth, but looking at his well muscled body and his costume she knew better.

"Yeah, Batman sent me to...Ahhhh!" he yelled out as a powerful beam of ice popped him on the side, knocking him off his feet.

Looking up, Buffy saw that it was Mr. Freeze, who was shooting a steady volley of ice energy, from his position on top of the damaged truck. Spotting a batarang by her foot, she quickly scooped it up and flung it at him. As it curved in mid-air, it hit the tip of the gun instantly damaging the gun so it wouldn't fire anymore.

Chancing a glance over her shoulder, she saw that just like Batwoman, Superman too was now a sheet of ice. A sheet of ice that suddenly started to rumble. The ice started to crack and with a growl, Superman broke free from the ice, sending it flying eveywhere, and turned his gaze over to Mr. Freeze.

In a blur, he flew over to him, ripped the gun out of his hand and punched him hard in his protective helmet cracking it. As he was exposed to the heat of the Californian nightlife, he immediately started to gasp for air. Throwing him off the side of the truck, where he landed next to Ivy, Superman tore off a few metal bars from the truck and bent them around Ivy and Freeze. Using his heat vision on the side of the bars, he sealed them into makeshift shackles.

"Now like I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted." Superman started as he walked up to Buffy. "Batman...the one from Gotham sent me here to assist you."

"Why?" Buffy asked still in awe of what she had just seen.

"Because, he uncovered...what happened to her?" he asked as he looked over Buffy's shoulder. Following his gaze, she saw the still frozen body of Batwoman.

"Mr. Freeze shot her with his ray gun." Buffy said as she looked back at him. "Do you think you can help her?"

"I'll see what I can do." he answered as he walked up to the statue. Activating his eyebeams, he lowered the temperature on the lasers until the ice slowly started to melt off. With a final blast, the last of the ice fell off of Batwoman and she pitched forward, shivering in the strong arms of the Kryptonian. "Come on, I'll take you two back to the batcave." he said as he scooped her up in a carrying position. Hearing police sirens in the distance, Buffy jumped on his back and held her arms strongly around his neck, piggy back style, as they flew away into the night.

Gotham Memorial Hospital

"He has multiple bruises, abrasions, three cracked ribs, a concussion, a broke wrist, and his legs were pulled out of their socket." Dr. Hanson said to Xander and Alfred. "My God, what was Mr. Wayne doing?" he asked.

"He was beaten up by some thugs, when he tried to go home." Xander answered calmly. "Can me and Alfred go see him?"

"Under normal circumstances, I would say no." the slightly balding doctor told him. "But in a normal situation, your father should be out like a light, from all of those injuries, but he's not. He's asking for you now, but only one of you at a time though."

"Thanks doc." Xander said as the man walked off.

"Go ahead and visit with him, Master Alexander. He is you father after all." Alfred told his charge as he layed his hand on his shoulder.

"Thanks, Al." Xander said as he patted the elder man's hand and walked to the elevator.

As Xander entered his father's room, he started feeling shaky, once he saw him lying on the bed asleep with various tubes and monitors attached to him. He had never seen Bruce look so fragile. So hurt. Xander was about to turn around and let Bruce rest peacefully, until the older man opened his eyes.

"Xander...?" Bruce asked. With a sad smile Xander walked fully into the room and sat down in a chair next to Bruce's bed.

"Hi, dad. How are you feeling?"

"Like...like I lost a fight to a very big man." Bruce answered with a wince as he tried to move.

"Here." Xander said as he helped him to get into a more comfortable position. "How's that?"

"Better." he answered back. "Now what are you doing here?"

"What do you mean, what am I doing here?" he asked increduously. "How was I supposed to stay away, when the last time I spoke to you, you were screaming?"

"But what about, Sunnydale? The Joker..."

"Is being taken care of by Batwoman like I told you before."

"Xander, I let you be the Batman of Sunnydale. I never told you to recruit anybody." Bruce told him sternly. "I am proud of you though. Alfred has been keeping me informed of what you've been up too."

"Thanks." Xander said as he reached into his pocket and took out his wallet. "This is Diana and her little daughter Selina." he said as he took out a picture and handed it to him. Opening up his bruised eyes even further, he smiled once he fully saw the picture. For some reason his gaze lingered on the little girl. It was like he was supposed to have known her for some reason.

"They're a beautiful family." Bruce said as he handed him back the picture. "I'm assuming that the blonde...Diana is Batwoman? What happened to make you take those two in?"

"I'll tell you later." Xander replied sadly. He really couldn't stomach talking about the death of her husband right now, in light of what happened to Bruce. "Oh, wait here's another picture." he said as he reached into his wallet and handed it to him.

"So these are the friends that, Alfred has been telling me about?" Bruce asked with a smile as he looked at it harder. It was a picture of Xander, Willow, Jesse, and Buffy on a peaceful day in the park. "I'm happy that you were able to rebuild your past and get your friends back along with some new one's." he said as he handed him the picture.

"Believe me, I'm happy about it too." his son replied as he put his wallet back in his pocket.

"So you and that blonde...Buffy. Are you two dating yet?" Bruce asked teasingly. "She's a pretty girl."

"Dad..." Xander whined, his cheeks turning red.

"Seriously son." Bruce said losing his smile. "Don't spend your whole life in the darkness like me. Live. Get married and have children. You also have friends now...real friends. Cherish that, because it's a luxury to have real friends who care about you and not your money."

"I understand." Xander said getting serious himself. After it was revealed that Bruce was Batman, Alfred told him that he went all over the world learning and honing his fighting skills. He never had time to have a nice normal life. "But, hey you got two good kids out of the deal." Xander told him happily, causing Bruce to chuckle.

"Yeah, I did." he said thinking about his little girl. "Now go ahead and go back to Sunnydale..."

"But..."

"The guy I sent is probably getting himself into trouble, right about now." Bruce informed him.

"Who did you send anyway?"

"Superman."

"Superman!" Xander almost shouted. "How do you know him?"

"We met a couple of years ago when I went on a business trip to Metropolis. We had to join forces and I kicked his ass..."

"You kicked Superman's butt. Come on dad."

"Ask him yourself. Now go."

"But it's still gonna take me a whole day to get back there." Xander said as he stood to his feet. "I'm never gonna get back there in time to be of any help."

"You will. Go to my batcave and use the bat-jet. Just listen to Alfred's instruction's on how to use it and you should be in Sunnydale in just under two hours."

"Alright, I'll go." Xander said as he walked to the door. "But I'll be back to help..."

"Don't worry about that." Bruce said as he sat up a little straighter. "After Superman helps you out, tell him to come back here so he can patrol Gotham and Metropolis. Because honestly, it doesn't look like, I'm gonna be able to walk for awhile."

"Okay, I'll see you later dad." Xander said as he ran out of the door.

"Goodbye, son." Bruce said as he finally let sleep claim him. He couldn't believe how mature his son seemed now. 'Maybe going back to Sunnydale, wasn't a bad thing after all.'

Batcave

Two hours later

"Batwoman is doing just fine." Superman told Buffy as he sat down at the batcomputer and started typing. "She's taking a hot bath right now and then she's gonna order out some dinner for her and her little girl."

"Batwoman has a daughter?" Buffy asked as she sat down next to him.

'She doesn't know Batwoman's true identity.' Superman thought to himself. 'You really put your big foot in your mouth, this time Clark.' "That's not important right now. What's important is that there's one member of the Joker's army that's missing."

"Who?"

"Two Face." Superman told her. "I think that Two Face already hit the bank before the other one's got there. The only problem is finding him."

"He's at the Double Mint factory just outside of town." a voice said from the darkness. Turning they both saw Batman entering the cave.

"How did you get here?" Buffy asked, not seeing or hearing the Tumbler.

"Let's just say that I have new means of transportation." he informed her.

"How do you know he's at the factory?" Supes asked as he crossed his arms over his chest.

"Because, I've been reading up on some files from the Batman in Gotham, on Harvey Dent." he said as he walked fully into the room. "Believe me that factory, is the only place that can deal with his dual personality."

"Alright, so let's sattle up." Buffy said as she walked over to Batman's weapon display and picked out some batarangs.

"I'm afraid you're not coming, Miss Summers." Batman said as he looked over at her.

"Why not?" Buffy asked, almost angrily. "Is this some kind of guy thing..."

"No it's not like that. It's just the fact that your destiny lies in fighting demons and vampires, ours is fighting criminals." 'And I don't want to see you hurt.' he quietly thought to himself.

"He's right, Buffy." Superman said as he put a hand on her shoulder.

"Fine, I never get to have any fun."

"If that's not enough to convince you, Miss Summers it's almost mid-night and I doubt your mother wants you out this late." Batman told her.

"Oh my God, I'm so grounded."

"Just wait for me by the cave entrance and I'll take you home." he said. After watching her, walk off Batman went up to Superman. "I'll take the Joker and you take Two Face."

"I don't think that's such a good idea, kid." Superman said with a shake of his head. 'Rookies.'

"Why not?" Batman asked, taken aback. "And don't call me kid."

"Fine, Alex."

"Keep it down, before Buffy hears you." Batman said, slipping back into his Xander voice.

"Fine, Batman. The reason I want to go after the Joker is because I can cover more ground then you and I'm immune to most of his toxin's."

"Fine." Batman replied with a glare, as the two stood side by side. "Now let's move."

Sunnydale Street

"Woohooho..." The Joker yelled crazily as he drove his truck wildly.

"Mister J aren't you gonna spring the others?" Harley asked as she looked over at the crazed clown.

"Why the hell for?" he asked. "I already got what I wanted. We're getting the hell out of here." and as soon as those words left his mouth, something violently smashed into the truck. "What the..." he trailed off as he looked in his side view mirror and saw Superman flying behind him.

"It's Supes." Harley said nervously. "What are we gonna do now?" before he could answer, Superman used his eyebeams and hit the trucks front tire. Losing control, it flipped over five times, spilling gold out the back as it did so.

"Damn." Joker said weakly as he came out of his daze. Looking over at Harley, who was now unconcious, he undid his seatbelt and climbed out of the truck. Seeing Superman flying down to his position, he looked around for a place of refuge. Seeing one, he ran for the high school forgetting all about Harley.

Double Mint Cake Factory

Sametime

"Boss, why are we waiting here for the Joker?" one of Two Face's thugs asked. "What if the Bat shows up?"

"I'm actually counting on him to show up." Two Face said as he turned away from him. "You. Sport. Any thoughts? Counting on Batass to rescue you?" he asked a security guard, laying on the floor, wrists and feet bound, trembling with fear. "We sure are."

" ...You gonna kill me?" the guard asked nervously.

"Might. Might not." Face replied with a shrug. "Could say we're of two minds on the subject."

"I got family. ...Please." he begged.

"What say we flip for it?" Two-face asked as he shoved his silver dollar under the guard's nose, showing him the smooth side."What could be fairer than the random toss of an honest coin? Life..." The other side bore deep, disfiguring burns. "...or death."

"Please. I swear I won't say noth-"

"The coin wants to decide." Face said as he flipped the coin. The coin spun in the air, gleaming, and landed on the floor only inches from the guard's face. With a smile Two-Face stomped the coin and winked at the sweating guard. "Exhilarating, isn't it? The suspense? Sudden death or a new lease on life? Really makes a man live in the moment." he said as he removed his foot to reveal the unblemished side up.

"You're in luck. You get to live and whimper another day." he said causing the guard to sob with relief and for Harvey's thugs to grumble. Two-Face then folded his jacket into a pillow, placed it under the guard's head, now the nicest crook in the world. "That floor has got to be very hard. Is that better?"

"Uh, yeah. Thanks, Mr..uh...Face." the guard said nervously.

"Just call us Harvey. Can we get you a sandwich? A soft drink? Given all the trouble we caused you, how about we cut you in for a share of tonight's haul?"

"Face! For cryin' out loud!" another one of his thugs bellowed. "You're not gonna pay him.." he stopped as Two-Face turned on him with a vengeance, shooting out a hand that pinned him by the throat to the wall.

"Did we ask your opinion? The coin has rendered its verdict. This man has a family to take care of. You have a problem with that?" Face asked.

"Oh no, Face. Anything you say." the thug said changing his tune.

Suddenly there was a ding from the elevators.

"Showtime." Face muttered to himself, as he and his thugs all whirled around, machine guns coming up, opening fire, armor piercing bullets punching holes in the metal doors, shredding anyone inside. As there guns clicked empty they stopped to re-load.

They all stood watching as the now perforated elevator doors slid, jerking, open to reveal...an empty elevator. Then suddenly the skylight overhead exploded and, in a rain of glass, Batman dropped to a high catwalk. Seeing Two-Face and his cronies, he jumped over the edge.

A thug fired at the figure hurling towards him, but Batman landed on his chest, smashing him to the floor. Suddenly, bullets cracked beside the caped crusader's head. Evading the blasts, he did a somersault and hid behind an opposing wall. Waiting until there was a break, upon firing, he threw a batarang hitting his assailant in the hand and making him drop his weapon.

With a quick elbow and and a leg sweep, he sent him to the floor. Seeing two more thugs running up to him, he side-stepped the first one, sent out a knee to the groin of the one in front of him and whipped around to palm strike the man behind him in the face. Making quick work of them, he was about to turn around, when he suddenly heard a click behind his head.

"Time to die, Bat's." Two-Face said with a wicked gleam in his eyes.

"Why not flip for it first?" Batman asked as he turned all the way around.

"What?" Face asked as he stepped back some.

"I said why don't you flip for it?" he asked again. "Killing somebody is a big decision. Do you really think that you should decide something like that without flipping first?"

"Say no more." he said as he took his coin out to flip it. Taking his eyes off of Batman, he totally missed the punch that came his way.

"Superman." Batman said into his communicator after tying up Two-Face and the other thugs. "I caught Two- Face and..." he stopped talking once he heard Superman's screams. With wide eyes, Batman took out his grappling hook gun, fired it to the broken skylight, and dissappeared into the night.

Sunnydale High

Minutes Before

With a growl, Superman watched as the Joker left Harley Quinn for dead and dissappeared into the highschool. Making sure she was alright, he quickly flew into the school and using his x-ray vision, saw that the Joker was hiding in the library.

"Come out Joker, I know you're in here." Superman said as he strolled into the library. And that proved to be a big mistake. As he stepped into the center of the room, the ancient seal of Danthazar suddenly flared, causing the spot under his feet to glow red.

Looking down he saw a red glowing pentagram forming and as he tried to get out of it, he found that he was stuck to the floor. Pumping more power into trying to move, violent winds of crimson started to twirl around the pentagram. The power was slowly starting to burn him.

"It looks like you're in a pickle." Joker said as he walked from behind a bookshelf and watched as Superman fell to his knees in pain.

"Wha...what are you doing to me?" Superman asked as he felt his power being drained, only to be replaced by something evil. It seemed that every good thought he would have, would twist itself into something dark.

"Me...why nothing." Joker said as he reached out and tried to touch the barrier, only for it to burn his hand. "Damn." he said as he shook the fire off his gloved hand. "Now that's hot." he said as Superman again howled in pain.

"Well, I see you're busy." Joker said with a smile as he turned to leave. "Be seeing you Supes." he said with an evil cackle as he ran out of the building. Waking up Harley, he hot wired a school bus and loaded it with all of the cash and some of the bricks of gold from his truck and fled the scene.

Red streams of lightning then crackled between Superman and the pentagram, causing his eyes to turn black, black veins to appear on his face, and for lightning to start sizzling around him. The ground suddenly began to shake and the wind started getting even stronger. With another cry of pain, bolts of green magic shot from Superman's body toward the pentagram.

"Superman!" a voice yelled, making him look up from his aparrent anguish. Lifting his hand up, he fell over as he tried to reach up for Batman's help.

Not knowing what else to do, Batman reached into his utility belt and threw a batarang at a spot behind Superman and as it exploded it knocked him out and away from the glowing death trap. Watching as his new ally, slowly returned back to normal, Batman helped Superman stand to his feet.

"What the hell happened?" Batman asked as he helped Superman lean against a table, that wasn't overturned from the blast.

"I...I don't know." Superman replied weakly, as he looked over to the spot where he was moments earlier. "It was the wierdest sensation, I've ever felt."

"Well let's get out of here then." Batman replied as he looked from Superman, to the still smoking hole in the floor.

In The Hellmouth

Sametime

"No, I was so close." a demon hissed as it hit the side of it's chair, breaking away the arm rest. It had waited centuries upon centuries to find an avatar. Someone it could control, so it's physical presense could be felt on earth. "Again, I am made to wait." the First evil said, calming down, as it sat back in it's chair. "But soon the human world will be mine."

Batcave

Later that night

"I'm sorry, I couldn't catch the Joker." Clark Kent said as Xander stepped out of the costume room.

"Hey, we got Two- Face and all the other one's didn't we." Xander asked as he sat down heavily on his chair. He was so exhausted. "That's gotta count for something."

"We do make a pretty good team don't we." Clark asked as the two finally shook hands.

"Yeah, we do." he replied as he stood to his feet. "Now do you want to join us for dinner? Knowing Diana, she probably ordered out something."

"I am a bit hungry." the man of steel, replied as the two started to walk up the stairs of the batcave.

"Hey, can I ask you something?" Xander said as he leaned his arm on Clark's shoulder. "Did my dad really kick your ass?"

"In his dreams." Clark replied as he made a little pfft noise.

Gotham City

A slight, but curvy raven haired woman, wearing all leather quickly sashayed out of a jewelry store. Seeing a man looking at her, the dominatrix gave him a chilling smile...even as the store behind her blew up in a glowing roar of fire, knocking the man off of his feet.

"God, I love my job." Catwoman said as she took off with her bag of loot into the night.

A/N I'm also skipping the next few chapters and going right to the episode Prophesy Girl. Don't worry, I'm not ending the fic there, because I have a few more surprises left. There was also supposed to be another scene with Batman and Buffy in this, but I didn't feel that it was all that neccessary.
