Ok so it looks like I forgot to say thank you to all of the Reviews I have been getting, so if its not to late Thanks a bunch I love to read them. Here is another chapter Hope you like it. Really I should be doing my paper on The Turn of The Screw, but I just dont feel like it. R&R please :) This if for Julia LC, sorry I made you yell at the monitor.
Steph was just looking at Ranger with out saying a word, just staring into his eyes, and Ranger was starting to get worried that his Babe was going to turn him down. He could already feel his heart start to break at the thought of his Babe rejecting him.
"Well, I guess having a complicated life goes with being Batman." His babe said while having a small smile on her face. She wanted to be with Ranger, wanted to be a part of and in his life; and she was, this was what she wanted and what she needed.
"I am not a super hero Babe." This was said calmly on Rangers part, although he just wanted to scream it at the top of his lungs. He was not a super hero, he was just a man, why couldn't his Babe see that, why did she have to think he had some kind a fancy power?
"Batman is not a super hero Ranger." His Babe spoke in a voice that had authority in it, one he only heard when she talked about deserts. "Its not your fault you don't know this, many people get it wrong. To be a Super Hero you have to have some type of super power. The Flash can run faster than any normal person, The X-Men crew are mutants that can read minds, control the weather, things like that. Batman, however, is just a man. He has no powers to help him along, if he gets hurt, then he is hurt, he can't heal himself like Wolverine. He is just a man doing what he believes is right, and making the world a safer place, with help form the wonderful toys he has. Where does he get those toys." (AN this is a line that the Joker says in Batman. I liked Michael as Batman, Val was also good, George sucked, I don't know why but he did. If you like him well then I am sorry about what I said but it's what I think, so maybe I am not that sorry.)
Ranger listened to what his babe said, then watched as she laughed at something she thought was funny. He never once thought that Batman was not a super hero, of course before his Babe came along he was not interested in anything of that sort, but what he heard about Batman was that he was a super hero. Leave it to his Babe to know what makes a super hero and what doesn't.
"See you are just like Batman," his Babe went on, running the back of her hand down his cheek as she spoke. "You do what you feel is right, you keep the world safe. You even have the cool toys to help you. You also wear all black, just like Batman, the only thing missing is the cape, but I'm sure that you can find one. You life is hard, but I'm no picnic to be around either. I go through cars like most people go through socks, and I am almost always covered in a mess of some sort, and I have psychos after me at least every month. Not some one you want to have in your life." Her eyes were now lowered and she had stopped touching Rangers face. He could see the sadness in her eyes, the fact that everything she heard from her mother and from that stupid cop play in her head.
"Babe that's just part of your charm."
