Justice League of Amazons: Fire & Blood
…
Chapter 6
Aegon watched the video feed of him and Karen at the sperm clinic. His features were schooled and controlled, but inside he was angry and upset. Angry that his privacy had blatantly been ignored and upset that now everyone on this world had seen him in a very private and intimate moment between him and Karen. The rest of the Justice League also watched the video and each member had different expressions on their faces. Most of them didn't look too pleased, Karen most of all looked especially displeased look on her face. Since the video had been released on social media, the video had accumulated millions of views and comments. Some of the comments were quite lurid and unfit for polite conversation.
The original video had been taken down at the request of the Justice League, stating that it was a blatant breach of privacy. But there were copies of the video being passed around on the internet. Aegon had asked if it were possible to have them all taken down or removed, but Shayera had told him that it would be next to impossible to achieve and if it were, it would take some time to do so. Aegon had not been very pleased to hear that and was forced to endure the indignity of it.
As they watched the video, Helena made a comment, "They didn't do you any justice in that video," she said to Aegon and Aegon looked at her sideways. "The video makes you look skinny as a twig," she added.
"Perhaps I ought to eat some more sweets and fatten myself up?" Aegon said archly as he made to turn around and leave the room. "I'm getting sick of watching this anyway," he added as he prepared to leave the room.
Everyone watched him go, Kara then spoke. "Is Aegon going to be okay?" she asked as she stared at the door.
"Well, considering his privacy was blatantly disregarded and now everyone on the planet has seen him naked, I'd say Aegon has every right to be upset right now," Dinah said sagely. "I can't imagine you must feel, Karen," she added looking at the Kryptonian.
"Aside from the fact that everyone on the planet has seen me naked now, too? Yeah… just peachy," Karen replied with an irritated sigh. "What I want to know is how those hackers managed to get a video of me & Aegon," she said.
"Someone must've spilled the beans about Aegon making the first sperm donation," Shayera said calmly. "Could be any number of ways they found out," she added.
"Should one of us see how Aegon is doing?" Mari asked. "Can't imagine he's travelling well, right now," she commented.
"One of us should," Diana stated, and everyone glanced at each other uncomfortably. Karen spoke.
"If anyone should talk to Aegon about this, it should be me," the former Earth-2 native said. "I had my privacy breached as well, and I was no stranger to sexual objectification before all this," she added.
"I think we were all subject to being sexualised before all this, Karen," Helena said softly. "But far be it from me to stop you," she added with a slightly sad smile at Karen.
"I'll talk to you all later," Karen said as she left the room to find and talk with Aegon.
…
Karen soon found Aegon in the observation deck looking down on the planet below from the window.
"Aegon?" Karen asked gently and Aegon looked at her, a single tear running down his face. Karen's heart wrenched in her chest as she saw how vulnerable Aegon looked and she walked over to him. "Are you okay? Do you want to talk about it?" the Kryptonian woman offered to the Valyrian.
"I feel like a whore," Aegon said, his voice choked with emotion and he bit his lip in frustration, wiping his eyes roughly and gave a harsh sigh. It was clear to Karen that Aegon was struggling with the emotions he was having right now. Standing close to him, Karen wrapped one arm around Aegon's waist and held him to her side. Aegon buried his face into Karen's shoulder and gave a wracking sob.
"Why did I end up in this madhouse? I want to go home!" he said with anguish in his voice.
Karen felt tears prick her eyes as she heard the pain in Aegon's voice. "It's okay, Aegon, just let it all out," she encouraged. Aegon then embraced her and sobbed and Karen could feel his tears seep through her costume and wrapped her arms around him, holding him close to give some comfort at what he was going through.
"Is this how whores feel?" Aegon said through his tears. "Is this how they feel after everyone sees them bared for all to see?" he asked.
"You're not a whore, Aegon!" Karen told him. "You weren't paid to expose yourself and you weren't to know that you were being filmed," she reminded.
"But how long before I do?" Aegon lifted his face to wipe it with the sleeve of his jacket. Karen's gut twisted as she saw the look of pain and betrayal in Aegon's eyes. "How long will it be before I start asking for payment to expose myself to everyone?" he asked.
"You won't!" Karen replied harshly, her own voice shaking with emotion. "Did you forget? I was there naked as you," she said to him. "How do you think I feel about all this?" she asked.
"Aye, I did forget you were there," Aegon said with a look of introspective on himself. "Am I really this selfish?" he asked.
"You're not. I know you're not selfish, Aegon," Karen said to him and she lifted Aegon's face to look him the eyes. "I know what happened wasn't the best thing to experience, and I can't promise it won't happen again, but you need to learn be a man about this," she told him.
"Heh… that sounds like what Lord Jon would say to me, were he here to tell it," Aegon chuckled thickly.
Karen gave a soft smile before she looked at Aegon more intently. They looked at each other, something passing between them. Hesitating for a brief second, Karen then softly pressed her lips to Aegon's. It was a simple touching of lips and Karen pulled away, looking at Aegon shyly. Karen was not normally very shy about intimacy such as kissing but she wasn't a hussy by any means as she chose her partners with some care and consideration. But the thought of kissing Aegon, the last man on Earth and quite possibly the new Father to Mankind made her hesitate a little.
Aegon looked at Karen more seriously as she pressed her lips to his and he hesitated for a moment before kissing the Kryptonian on the lips. His kiss was firmer than Karen's had been, and Karen did not resist or pull away. Karen gave a soft moan as she felt Aegon's lips mould to hers and she kissed him back, softly and sweetly.
Karen's lips were soft and felt wonderful to Aegon as he kissed her, and Karen could taste something sweet on Aegon's lips as she kissed him back. Karen's hands moved to the back of Aegon's neck, deepening the kiss a little and her eyes fluttered shut as she felt the sensation of kissing Aegon. Aegon's hands slowly moved down to Karen's hips, pulling her flush into him. Karen gave a little gasp at sudden initiative Aegon took and she kissed him more insistently, her breasts pressing up against his chest. Aegon's hands then drifted to grasp into Karen's buttocks, giving them a firm but gentle squeeze. Karen gave a slight yelp and she broke off the kiss and looked at Aegon in surprise.
"Sorry! I did not mean to…" Aegon tried to say when Karen suddenly shut him up with a swift kiss.
"It's okay," the Kryptonian said to him with a smile on her lips. "I don't mind at all." The smile on Karen's lips was sinful and mischievous and the blush on her cheeks gave her a flushed erotic look. Aegon felt his manhood throb almost painfully and he was surprised at himself; he had thought that after donating five cups of his seed would want his cock to take a rest for the day. But it seemed this kissing session with Karen was recharging his manhood.
"Karen?" Aegon asked and Karen looked at him kindly. "Yes, Aegon?" she replied to him.
"I… I'm not sure I'm ready for this yet," he admitted as his voice became slightly timid. Karen had a look of hurt yet understanding on her face.
"I understand perfectly, Aegon," she said before giving him one final kiss and moved away from him slightly, releasing her hold. "But I would like to revisit this someday," she added with a hopeful smile.
Aegon smiled back and replied, "I would like that, my lady."
"So, I've graduated to nobility status?" Karen asked with some humour in her voice.
"I do not mean to offend," Aegon tried to say when Karen put a gloved finger on his lips shutting him.
"It's okay, back on Krypton I came from what could be considered a noble house," the Kryptonian said.
"I see," Aegon mumbled. "So, I was right in addressing you as my lady?" he asked.
"Maybe, but I don't really do formalities like that," Karen said with a shrug of her shoulders. "But thanks anyway for the sentiment," she added with a smile and Aegon smiled back.
"C'mon, I have a feeling we could both do with a hot shower and some food," Karen then said and Aegon nodded in agreement as they both left the observation room for the showers.
Aegon entered the showers and stripped off his clothes and stepped into the shower bay, turning on the hot water. Steam began to fill the room as hot water sprayed out of the showerhead and pelleted against Aegon's bare body. Closing his eyes, Aegon let the hot water wash way his troubled thoughts, letting them slough off his body and down the drain. After spending a few minutes under the shower, Aegon turned off the shower and stepped out, grabbing a dry towel and began to dry himself off. Cinching the towel around his waist to conceal his indecency, Aegon then stepped out of the bathroom where he found Karen also stepping out of the adjacent bathroom with a towel wrapped around her body and another towel wrapped around her head.
"Oh, hey," Karen said to Aegon in surprise. "All cleaned up?" she asked him. Aegon tried not to stare before he managed to reply, "Y-Yes. I'm all cleaned up now," he said.
"So, I see," Karen remarked and she quickly noticed Aegon trying not to stare at her too much. A slight smirk crept on her face as she said, "You've already seen me naked, remember? And I've seen you naked as well," she reminded him.
"I do, but I should not stare at you like a piece of meat," Aegon replied tersely.
"Well, you get points for that in my book," Karen said with a smile. "Nice to see a guy using his head and not his head," she added as a joke.
"Head?" Aegon repeated that word. "I have two heads?" he asked in confusion.
Karen gave a giggle at how clueless Aegon was when it came to modern slang. "You do," she said giving an obvious glance down at Aegon's towel covered crotch. Aegon saw where Karen was looking and gave an "Oh" of understanding and blushed slightly.
"Still, good to see you're trying to use the head on your shoulders," Karen then said. "Although, I hope that you'll use your other head sometimes," she added with a sinful smile.
"Perhaps…" Aegon said guardedly unsure of what Karen was getting at. Karen gave another giggle at Aegon's reaction before saying, "Well, I'm gonna get dressed and get something to eat. Will you join me?" she asked.
"I'd be happy to," Aegon answered as he looked through the nearby lockers for some fresh clothing.
Karen dressed herself in some shorts and a sleeveless Lakers basketball t-shirt. The shirt hugged the Kryptonian woman's enviable curves and strained nicely against her chest, making it a little more pronounced. Aegon gallantly did his best not to stare which made Karen smile slightly and a quick sweep of her X-ray vision told her that she was indeed having an effect on the young Valyrian man.
After dressing himself in some sweatpants and a shirt, Aegon then joined Karen in the cafeteria where some of the Justice League were enjoying a meal. Barbara had her cowl off, showing her face to Aegon and Aegon noted that Barbara was an attractive young woman with a face worthy of any song. Truth be told, nearly all the women of the Justice League had faces worthy of song and their bodies would put many to shame. But, Aegon would do his best to be a gallant gentleman and not do anything to dishonour these women, although he knew it would be a challenge to control himself around these women.
Aegon must've been staring at Barbara for some time when she looked up at him and asked, "You okay, Aegon?"
Aegon gave a little startled movement before replying, "Ah, yes. I'm fine, I just… this is the first time I've seen your face," he explained.
"Yeah, I mean, I do have to take the cowl off sometimes," Barbara replied. "And I mean, I'm beginning to trust you, so I can show you my face, can't I?" she said.
"I find it hard to argue with that," Aegon said. "It does not matter much to me who you are under your mask," he added.
"Yeah, well in this business, you kinda have to keep your identity a secret, or else the bad guys will go after your loved ones," Barbara said wryly. "And you even have to keep it secret from your family too," she added sadly.
"You parents would not approve?" Aegon asked in slight surprise. "I'd have thought your family would be proud to know that you are protecting the people," he said.
"Yeah, but my father was a police officer, and technically what I do is considered illegal in the eyes of the law," Barbara said. "And my family would be worried sick if they knew what I did at night, busting bad guys' heads and coming home with bruises and scrapes," she added.
"I suppose I understand," Aegon said quietly as he served himself some food from the buffet. "So, what is it you do when you're not… busting bad guy's heads?" he asked.
"I'm a data analyst for the Gotham City Police Department," replied Barbara. "But since the virus, I'm now the acting CEO and chief stockholder of Wayne Enterprises," she said.
"Wayne Enterprises?" Aegon echoed.
"It's the business company that my mentor Batman ran whenever he wasn't wearing the cowl and cape," Barbara told him. "Multi-billion-dollar empire with various facets of business such as technology, medicine and other interests," she said. "And with Batman gone and all the other members of the Bat-family gone, I'm now the sole heir and beneficiary of Bruce Wayne's will and family fortune," she added.
"I see," Aegon mumbled. "Could you tell me what your mentor was like when he was alive?" he asked politely.
"Where to begin?" Barbara said with a chuckle and she launched into the life story of Bruce Wayne and his transformation into the feared almost mythical Batman of Gotham City. Aegon listened with rapt attention as he was told of the tragic murder of Bruce Wayne's parents as a young child and how he made a vow to protect Gotham City from the criminals that rampaged in it. It all sounded like the stories of the Age of Heroes in the far-off times of Westeros; of how a young boy who had lost everything and made a knightly oath and went on to become a great hero in his own right.
"An interesting story," Aegon said once Barbara had finished narrating the life story of the Batman. "He must've been quite a man to work with," he added.
"If you want to look at it like that, then sure," Barbara said dryly.
"Not that good a man I take it?" Aegon asked unsurely.
"He was a good person, but he had very high standards and could be next to impossible to work with, given how he acted to people," Barbara said with a slight chuckle. "It was one of the reasons Dick left," she added with a slightly sombre look on her face.
"Dick?" Aegon repeated the name.
"Oh, Dick was the first Robin. His actual name was Richard Grayson, but he preferred to be called Dick," Barbara explained.
"Did he realise the connotation that name meant?" Aegon asked.
"Yeah, he did, and he was actually fond of making those sorts of jokes," Barbara said with a giggle. "Still, it hurt when he left for a time," she added with a slightly sad expression.
"I'm sorry to hear that," Aegon said kindly.
"It's okay, it was years ago and he came back, just not as Robin," Barbara replied and she looked at Aegon more seriously. "You know, if Dick were still alive, I'd get the feeling you'd get along with him pretty well," she said.
"I imagine I might," Aegon said with a slight smile. "From the sounds of it, he sounds a bit better than Bruce," he added jokingly.
"Yeah, he was in a lot of ways," Barbara said with a smile. "Still, what's done is done, now. You can't change the past," she added unhappily.
"Are you alright, Lady Barbara?" Aegon asked in concern.
"I'll be fine," Barbara replied. "I've just got very big shoes to fill now that Batman is gone," she said.
"Well, if you require my assistance, then feel free to ask," Aegon offered. "I do not know how much of assistance I can be, but I hope I may be of some use," he said self-deprecatingly.
"I may just take you up on that, Aegon," Barbara said with a smile and Aegon smiled back.
TO BE CONTINUED…
A/N: There! The sixth chapter of this done and dusted! I apologise for it being a short pointless filler chapter, but hopefully the next chapter we'll see some action, but then maybe not?
In other news, I had recently published another Game of Thrones/Justice League crossover called Game of Thrones: Gods & Monsters, so feel free to have a read of it if you want. And I'm working on writing another Marvel/DC Comics multi-crossover somewhat similar to my Infinity Convergence Crisis story just using Draco of Maribor/Aegon VI Targaryen from my Witcher/Game of Thrones crossover and I've set up a romance poll for that idea, so feel free to cast your votes.
Other than that, I haven't got much more to say, so I'll see you all in the next one.
Be kind to another,
Angry lil' elf.
