Here's the bonus chapter presenting the version that's almost completely dialogue. I actually appear in this one!
Shining Knight Reads a Book
Bonus Chapter
"What are you reading Flash?"
"Just this book I found lying around."
"What is it about?"
"Well, it's about…About…Actually I'll lend it to you; I've already read it about fifteen times. I suggest you skip chapter three."
"Very well then." As the Shining Knight walked away a girl around five foot five with a hair color that was a mix of all natural colors came up to Flash.
"Hey Flash, have you seen my book?"
"What's it called?"
"It's called 'A Journey for Marriage'. Have you seen it?"
"Oh shit…"
"You lent it to him didn't you?"
"Yeah…Should we stop him?"
"Naw, should we make some footage of him readin' it and sell it?"
"Sure why not."
NEXT DAY
"Come and get it, five bucks apiece! See the shining Knight's reaction to a same-sex relationship dilemma!" The girl and Flash were selling copies of security footage all around the watch tower. Flash turned to the girl as she made a comment. "Hey, I think I have enough for a new copy of that book."
A ways away in the Senior Lounge some of the leaguers were enjoying the video as well. Nothing really happened for a while then all of a sudden the usually calm eyes of the Shining Knight went wide and he slammed the book shut. "Blasphemy." He muttered, so said the subtitle at the bottom of the screen, he then picked up the book and went to a fireplace.
"What's he doing?" Asked one leaguer.
"Isn't it obvious?" Replied another.
The Shining Knight fed the flames until he deemed the fire satisfactory before tossing the book into the flames. Muttering as he did so. "Blasphemy, just blasphemy." Then he let loose a short stream of obscenities and, most likely untrue, facts about the author and his family. The whole room burst out laughing.
Yeah, I liked the 1st one better... Anyways, so you all know for when I put fics up that go along with my 'junior league' idea I don't go my the comics because 1: I don't like being criticized by comic nerds (though I'm the one who can tell people almost anything on Jamie Madrox from X-Men) 2: I wanted to make everyone individualistic, no carbon copy characters for me please. But I tend to do some every now and then. And 3: It will give me a foundation for my DC/Marvelverse world.
If you're all good I might just give you a sneak peek of the DC/Marverlverse. For times, Marvel5 years after "X-Men: Evolution" ends, DCcurrent year, Batman Beyond ages.
