Chapter 08 - Greatest Story Ever Told

Three Years later, Lara was 17 and Terry 16 and they are very excited to finally start to work with their parents.

"Lara, are you ready?" Lois asked knocking on Lara's door. "You know your father doesn't have all day."

"Just a minute!" Lara screamed from her room while Lois, Clark and Martha were waiting impatient in the living room.

"Take it easy with her, Lois!" Clark said with a smile. "This is a big day for her!"

"I know I know But you know I'm not the most patient person on this planet," Lois confessed grinning at him.

"I know." Clark chuckled before Lara finally opened the door revealing her Super outfit very similar to Superman's that Martha also made for her.

"So, what do you think?" Lara asked with a proud smile io her face.

"You look wonderful, dear," Martha commented with a smile.

"Good Lord, Martha! Did you have to make it so tight?" Lois complained worried about Lara's outfit being so tight.

" Clark 's was tight too, and I never heard you complaining," Martha pointed out making Lois blush. "Besides it lowers their wind resistance while flying, Lois you know that."

"It's not the wind I'm worried about. They're going to know her cup size, Martha!"

"Mom!" Lara complained annoyed at her mother's comments.

"It doesn't seem to bother Wonder Woman either and what's good for her is good enough for my granddaughter," Martha pointed out smiling.

"She may be a wonder, but her costume sense leaves a lot to be desired," Lois continued before Lara interrupted Lois and Martha's argument about Lara's costume.

"Daddy?" Lara asked looking at Clark with a silly smile. "What do you think?"

Clark quick spun into Superman's costume and put his hand in Lara's shoulder. "I think I want to fly. And I think it's time my daughter flew with me."

Lara looked at her father and smiled. "I would love to do that, daddy," she said before they flew away leaving Lois and Martha alone in the apartment looking to the sky from the window.

At the same time in Gotham City , Terry Wayne was putting on his Batman suit for the first time as Bruce and Diana were there waiting for him.

"So, what do you think?" Terry asked about his Batman armor that was very different from Bruce's since the new high-tech batsuit that augments his abilities, fires Batarangs from the wrists, flies using jets fired from the feet, allows eavesdropping through a hypersensitive touch microphone, and provides camouflage abilities.

"Not bad," Diana pointed out with a smile.

"I think you are ready," a50 old year Bruce said with a serious look trying hard not to smile. "Let me see what you can do, kid."

"Great, what do you suggest?" Terry asked impatient to start to work already.

"Go to the plane. I'll monitor you from here. Take Ace with you." He suggested as the Bathound followed Terry to the plane.

"Okay."

Terry entered the plane excited abouthis new job and Bruce called him from his communication device.

"Terry, are you listenind to me?"

"Yeah."

"All right. You can switched the communication to the watchtower as well." Bruce explained while Terry was driving the jet.

"Hey, Lara?" Terry called her from his communication device while Lara was flying with Superman in the Metropolis sky.

"Terry?"

"Where are you?" he asked as Lara landed on the Daily Planet roof with her father. "Daily Planet roof." She frownedsuspicious. "Why?"

"Wait for me there. I have a surprise for you."

"Great. I also have a surprise for you."

Superman looked at his daughter a little suspicion narrowing his nose. "What are you two up to?"

"Nothing, daddy. Trust me."

"I do honey. But it's Terry I don't trust. He is Bruce's son after all."

"Daddy, please," Lara pleaded with puppy eyes. "Terry is a good guy."

"I know, honey. I know. But can you blame me for worrying right? It's my job after all to look out for my little girl who isn't little anymore," Superman explained hugging her tight.

"Of course not, daddy. This is a job for Superman after all."

"So, did you already pick a name?" Superman asked curious making Lara smirk.

"Super Woman," Lara announced as Superman looked at her for a moment. "What do you think?"

"It's perfect," he said grinning before noticing the Bat-jet landing on the roof. "Your boyfriend is here, Lara."

"Terry?"

Terry opened the jet's door as he and Ace got out. "So, what do you think?" he asked about his suit.

"I love it," Lara said approaching him.

"Very good, especially because Bruce updated it from the old one," Superman pointed out looking at Terry's suit. "Although I kinda miss the utility belt."

Lara and Terry glanced at him who noticed they wanted to be alone. "Okay. I'll let you two alone. Don't come back late all right, Lara? I mean Super Woman," Superman reminded her before he flew away leaving them finally alone.

"Super Woman?" Terry asked surprised. "That's your name?"

"Yeah, but now I'll have to wear glasses too. Daddy's suggestion. "And you are"

"Batman."

"Batman?" Lara inquired confused. "You'll keep your's daddy name?"

"Yes. I decide the world still needs a Batman. It's homage to my old man."

"I love it," Lara said hugging him. "Although it kinda sucks I can't see your face."

"I can fix that." Terry took off his helmet making Lara smile before they shared a very passionate kiss.

"And for the record, I love your name too, Lane I mean, SuperWoman."

"Thanks, Batman," Lara said with a giggle before they shared another passionate kiss on the Daily Planet roof.
