The Boogeyman

Same as the last two chapters, Chapter 3's will display more bloody and gory scenes, but not too much.

And there's still the action that Batman and Nightwalker fans have come to love.

And also in this chapter, the Batman and Detective Yin, as well as Amanojako and the Ghosts at School

gang learns more about Shido Tatsuhiko's past, the N. O. S., Cain and the Nightbreed, and more. And the

heroes will hatch a plan on how to track down the Nightbreeds and their hiding place. And things will get

more complicating than they can handle.

And one more thing. There's a slight lime scene later, but it's a very important part of the story. Don't

worry, it won't border on the rated M category, since it won't be that much.

This fic is rated T for:

Blood and gore.

Violence.

Language.

Slight Lime Scene.

Disclaimer: see Chapters 1 and 2. By then you'll know.

Part 3: Children of the Night; Wild-goose Chase

Gotham City Police Detective Ellen Yin, and some of the Yokohama District residents managed to hold off

the Nightbreeds (in the guise of children), but were in danger of extinction. More and more Nightbreeds

appeared out of nowhere, outnumbering them. And Detective Yin was running out of bullets. She and some

of the residents had to rely on long rakes as weapons to keep their attackers away. But slowly, Yin's team

were slowly decreasing as some of the Nightbreeds consumed their attackers one by one. But then, the

Yokohama police force arrived, and opened fire at the Nightbreeds. With the children's body rendered

"inoperable", the Nightbreed abandoned the bodies, revealing their true forms in the process, and fled. Yin

thanked Police Commissioner Artemio Yamagata for their quick response. "My hunch was right. This is a

supernatural case. Speaking of which, where's your friend, the Batman?" Yamagata said. Then a child was

hurled in front of them, his head was almost severed from his body. Then, a Nightbreed left its host body

and fled. Yin and the police went to the source, seeing Batman and Shido fighting off at least 15

Nightbreed-possessed children. Yamagata then ordered his men to open fire at the Nightbreeds, instructing

them to aim at their heads. The police did so, killing the attackers. Then the Nightbreed appeared from their

host bodies, but Shido used his "Blood Sword" to eradicate the escaping Nightbreeds. After that, things

became peaceful again. Shido and Batman thanked Yamagata for their assistance, while Yamagata insisted

that it's his duty to defend everyone. When Yamagata asked Shido if they have any leads regarding why the

Nightbreeds were possessing the kids, Shido told him that they'll eventually get to the truth. Then a shot

was heard. Detective Yin looked around for the source of the gunfire. Batman clenched his fists and said,

"The kids at the Aoyama house! A Nightbreed is there!". Immediately, Shido, the Batman, Yin and the

Yokohama Police Force headed towards Hajime's house

At the Aoyama residence, Hajime just fired another shot at a Nightbreed on the head, as the Nightbreed

was half-way through the broken door of the bedroom. Then another Nightbreed smashed another hole onto

the door, increasing the screams inside the bedroom. Leo and Satsuki were shielding Keichiirou in the

front, while Momoko, Aya, Fuko, and Natsumi were covering Keichiirou from behind. Hajime and

Amanojako were standing between their friends and the assaulting Nightbreed. One of the Nightbreed

spoke. "Hand us the small boy, and we'll let you go…". But Hajime cut him off. "You'll have to get

through us if you can! Keichiirou is definitely not on your menu!". He then shot him in the head. Then

three more Nightbreed broke more holes on the door, and the Ghosts at School gang realizes that in a few

more seconds, the door will give in. Then a tap from the window was heard. Looking back they were

relieved that the Batman was there. "Leo, open the window! Quick!" Hajime screamed, then fired his last

shot at the Nightbreed, and after that, he threw the gun at them, as Hajime ran out of bullets. Soon Batman

came in and threw tear gas at the Nightbreeds, temporarily disoriented them. "Nice of you to drop by." Said

Amanojako. Batman smirked and said, "You still haven't changed, fur ball.". Batman then had all the gang

out of the house through the window. After a few minutes, the Nightbreeds jumped out of the window, only

to be shot on the spot by the police. Then it was over. The Yokohama District was calm again, save for a

few grieving parents whose children were killed by the Nightbreeds. Then unexpectedly, Satsuki and

Keichiirou's father came home. He then hugged his children while the siblings were crying. Hajime and

Momoko were hugging out of relief, only to break away as Momoko's three friends were teasing them.

Batman and Shido then motioned Hajime, Momoko, Leo and Amanojako to step forward, telling them that

they're help is needed in order to track down the Nightbreed's lair. Shido then had Batman, Yin, and the

Ghosts at School gang go to Hajime's house. Once there, he explained to them about his past, the

Nightbreed, the N. O. S. Agency, and Cain.

Everyone were puzzled as to why the Nightbreed began to target children below eight. Batman then said he

has a plan on how to find the Nightbreed's lair. Batman then told everyone his plan.

A week later, Keichiirou (actually, a dummy that looked like Keichiirou) was "sleeping" at Hajime's

bedroom, which was repaired (I don't know who shouldered the expenses, though). Beside him were

Hajime and Momoko., who were lying down side by side. Each of them were given a codec (a tiny radio

transmitter that you'll see on Konami's Metal Gear Solid series), so that they can communicate with each

other in case something came up. Momoko and Hajime were a bit worried about this set-up. They were a

bit scared that, if their plan went awry, they may end up getting killed, but Batman assured to them that as

long as they stick to the instructions, they'll be safe. Another reason was that if they fall asleep, the attacker

might strike first. Then Aya contacted the two through the codec. "Since you two will be playing a couple,

then you should act like one, so why not try a little kissing so that the attacker will think that you've let

your guard down, and it'll make him do something hasty.". Hajime and Momoko blushed profusely at what

Aya just suggested. Shido seemed to agree with Aya's suggestion. Detective Yin then told Hajime and

Momoko that they'll have to "go with the flow" if the plan they were planning were to succeed. Hajime

looked down at his lap, feeling that he is going to violate his "love interest" even if it is needed to execute

their plan to track down a Nightbreed. Momoko looked intently at Hajime. She could see the look of

uncertainty at his eyes, telling her that Hajime was not comfortable with Aya's suggestion. Momoko

smiled, knowing that Hajime was careful with dealing with her. "Hajime…" Hajime looked at Momoko.

"It's alright. I understand what they're trying to suggest. Remember the stage play that Leo played at the

elementary school? He knows that a ghost was doing this, yet he played along.". Hajime nodded, recalling

the time that they sealed a ghost who was going to take Leo. "Then we should think that this is a stage play.

Let's pretend that we're a couple making out. That way we'll look convincing enough to fool a Nightbreed.

Then Batman can place the tracking device on him, enabling Batman to find the Nightbreed's lair." Hajime

blushed deeper. "B-but…I haven't kissed a girl yet…" He stammered. Momoko then said, "Ok, I'll guide

you.". Then Shido called the teens through their codecs. "A Nightbreed is coming. Better get your acts

together." Hajime's heart began to beat faster, as he slowly puts his lips over Momoko. Momoko held

Hajime's cheek, also puts her lips over his. "Follow my lead, Hajime…" She whispered. Hajime did what

she said. And in ten seconds, their simple kiss turned into a passionate one. To the teens' surprise, their

bodies began to heat up. Hajime broke the kiss, feeling that he overdid his part. Momoko blushed but told

him it was ok. Hajime blushed deeper and said, "I-I have a problem." "What is it?" She asked. Hajime

blushed deeper. "Please, tell me" she pleaded. Hajime stood on his knees, and Momoko looked at his

shorts, realizing the problem. Momoko blushed, but it couldn't be helped. Their plan was to make the

approaching Nightbreed think that they let their guard down so the Nightbreed will kill the "bait". Momoko

summoned all her courage and told Hajime that they'll have to go with the flow, all for the sake of stopping

the Nightbreed. Hajime summoned his courage, and started to kiss Momoko on the lips. It was very

passionate by any standards, and both teens could feel each other's desire. He broke the kiss, and looked

intently at Momoko. Momoko nodded, knowing that Hajime was being delicate in executing their acts.

Taking a deep breath, Hajime slowly lowered Momoko on the bed. He then slowly lifted her skirt, exposing

her panties. Hajime stared at it for a few seconds before removing his shirt and shorts, leaving him only in

his briefs, and Momoko saw his "hidden desire", which became obvious. Hajime gently parted her legs,

then slowly placed himself on top of Momoko, making sure that she wouldn't get crushed underneath.

Momoko could feel Hajime's desire between her legs, as he started to kiss her. After a minute of kissing,

Hajime began to softly kiss her neck. To her surprise, Momoko felt that her body was heating up, but

unlike her making out with her ex-boyfriend Charles, Hajime was very gentle and delicate. And despite

being aroused, Hajime was very careful, remembering the plan that he and the rest had agreed on. Their

making out ruse worked, as a Nightbreed, possessing the body of a 7-year old girl, sneaked his way inside

Hajime's room, and started to pull the "bait" off the bed, and slowly dragging it away from the bedroom.

Hajime and Momoko noticed this, and stopped their acts, and started to get dressed. The Nightbreed

then started to hack away at the "bait", only to realize that it was a fake. As he headed back to the bedroom,

Hajime sprayed the intruder with a fire extinguisher, and the intruder ran away, heading downstairs,

towards the exit.

As the Nightbreed reached the exit, the Batman fired his tracking device, hitting the pants of the girl that

the Nightbreed possessed. The Nightbreed didn't noticed this as he was busy running away. The Batman,

Shido, and Amanojako gave chase stealthily, as not to arouse his "prey's" curiosity.

Hajime waited for Momoko to get fully dressed, then they went to where Detective Yin and the rest of the

Ghosts at School gang were standing. Holding the Bat-Wave tracker, she told the police to follow her, but

advised them to turn off their sirens. Yin and the Ghosts at School gang rode on a police car, using the Bat-

Wave tracker to follow the signal leading them to where the Nightbreed's lair was located..

Meanwhile, Shido called Yayoi, and soon she arrived in a car. Shido and Batman boarded the car, and

began to follow the signal, not losing track of it. Amanojako used his ESP to keep track of the runaway

Nightbreed. "It seems that our prey is heading away from the city. It seems that…oh great, we got

company!" Amanojako stated, looking behind. "You go ahead, Batman, I'll hold them off." Shido said.

Batman, through his utility belt, summoned his remote controlled jet pack, and got on. Amanojako hopped

aboard, intent on going with him. As Batman and Amanojako went to the sky to track down the runaway

Nightbreed, Shido and Yayoi stopped their car and began to fight off the rest of the Nightbreed.

To Be Continued…

Hope you liked this chapter. And please don't get too hard on it because of the brief lime scene. Besides,

nothing bad happened between Hajime and Momoko.

And no. They're not yet a couple. But soon, they might be… hint, hint…

Anyway, The chase continues in Chapter 4, and the Midnight Detective and the Dark Knight, as well as the

Ghost at School gang, will meet the mastermind behind the children's murder, and it won't be that pleasant,

I assure you.

And don't forget your reviews. It's very important to know your feedback regarding this fic.
