The Undeniable Truth
Chapter 3
By Xavier
Sorry, the upcoming chapters are gonna be quite short. HEHE. Forgive me? I'll make it up to you with a good story. I added a few more characters, some from the comics, into the story, Flash is the son of Wally here, Marvel is still Billy ( I gave him the gift of prolonged youth), and a hero I made, Atom Master. I'll talk about them in future stories.
Meanwhile in the Metro Tower
Con El, Superman, had just finished rounding up some villains running amok in Hong Kong. He took a bottle of Guava juice and moved to the leisure area. (Recently added for the relaxation of tired heroes.)
In the room, Flash (Peter West), Captain Marvel and Atom Master were on the couch dozing off.
"Hey guys." All the heroes awoke.
" Aww man! I was almost able to fall asleep! Do you know what it's like fighting off Black Adam constantly?" said Marvel.
"Sorry, just wanted to talk about this weird dude I fought in HK."
"No one cares about ur adventures, Supes." They all said.
"Ok. So what do you guys wanna talk about?"
"Urg! Since you've woken all of us, might as well find something interesting to talk about."
"Did you guys know that Wonder Woman is back in town!"
"No. I thought some idiotic dweeb broke her heart and drove her away."
"Yeah. And that's also why she's back. To confront that dweeb."
"Whom exactly are we talking about?" asked Atom Master.
"Tall, dark and grumpy himself."
"Wait a sec… You mean Batman!"
"Yeah, didn't you guys know?"
"I thought that was just random gossip."
"Well, that's not what pa Kent says. Apparently those two have been in love for years, but Bats wouldn't act on it."
"Why not?"
"Cuz he was afraid of loss. He was scared he'd lose her."
The crowd smirked.
"Him lose her? Shouldn't it be the other way round?"
"Anyways, something terrible happened to one of Batman's partners. ( Tim/Joker affair ) Then he pushed Wondy away."
"Still. She's Wonder Woman."
"Yeah. But he doesn't want to endanger her. You know why he became Batman, right? To lose one's parents right in front of ya… It's only natural he would worry about her…"
"Well my dad said that the more Batman pushed someone away, the more he cared about that person. So he must really love Wondy, to drive her away like that." Said Flash.
At that moment, Arrowette entered the room.
"Can't believe you guys were "Gossip Guys"." she said
"How was the mission?" Superman asked.
"Nothing special. Just The Royal Flush Gang and some False Face Gang cronnies, is all."
"The FFG again? Black Mask's been busy."
"Enough with Mask Boy, what's up with Bats and Wondy?"
"Well, she's back to confront him."
"Batman is sucha dick!"
"He lost everything when he was eight! Give him some credit!"
"If he truly loves her, he'd let it go."
"If you were in his position, you'd understand."
After Superman's response, everyone lowered their heads. Imagining how hard it would've been for Batman when he lost his parents. He did deserve some credit.
Suddenly the alarm went off and the group returned to action.
TBC.
