Chapter 2
"A Kidnapping and Return To Gotham"
"What? This isn't good..." Yami said.
"I should've let him take me." Justin said softly.
The boy wasn't making eye contact with anyone. He was trying not to show emotions... Like his dear old DaddyBats.
"I fear his life is slipping." Yugi said not knowing Jamie was Superman's son or that there was green kryptonite in the room with him.
"Gotta find him... Not-much-time..." Justin said weakly.
Yugi and Yami found him and Yugi ran to him and looked at Yami. Yami looked pissed. Jamie was tied and gagged he was tied to the chair and a glowing green stone was on the table a lead box was on a table in the hall that they had past. Yami went to fetch it.
/Hurry./
Yami went and sealed the stone. It took a while for Jamie to come to because of how weak he was. Yugi picked him up and carried him out and to safety. Justin felt sick but was getting better.
"Superman!" Yugi called.
Clark went to the call.
"Safe... Mommy... Daddy..." Justin whispered.
Yugi looked at Clark then the unconscious child and explained how they found him.
Clark told of the attack On Justin's Birthday Party.
"Oh of All the-!" Yami muttered.
"Protoman, told me." Yugi said.
"I was just more focused on finding Jamie." He added.
"Justin's on a guilt trip... Doubt either his new Navi Or his Nanny will break him from it." Clark said.
"Jamie could when he snaps out of it. Two halves..." Yugi said.
"And for the record..." Clark started.
"One soul is shared between them...Jamie the darkness and Justin the light." Yugi said.
"No... That His nanny I believe... related to you..." Clark said.
"Lenore Hikari?" Yugi asked.
"Yes... She's awfully sweet with him... And Protective but willing to let him find his way." Clark said.
"And hopeful if I know her." Yugi said.
/Roll./
-what?-
/Lenore the nanny is Roll./
-Well, I'll be... Wondered where she got to... I know Talla and the twins look for her in times of needs... Takes them a bit.-
Yugi nodded. Jamie's green eyes slowly and weakly opened.
Clark looked at his boy.
"Yugi..." Jamie started.
"Hey, kiddo." Yugi said smiling.
"I'll tell Justin." Yami said, vanishing and reappearing at the ruined party.
In truth he had something for the boy. Lenore looked at Yami.
"Yami..." She started.
"Jamie's safe And I have something for Him." Yami said.
Lenore sighed in relief.
"Justin." Lenore called.
Justin went over at his nanny's call.
"This is Yami. He's one of Hal's nephews. And kinda my cousin." Lenore said.
"Hello." Justin said quietly.
"You and Yugi saved Jamie didn't you, Yami?" Lenore asked.
Yami nodded. He handed over his gift. Justin opened it up. Lenore smiled as she watched.
"A dueldisc..." Justin started.
Justin never had the time to build a deck but seen kids at school play. He watched televised tournament matches when possible. He was into it.
"Yami here and Yugi are co-world champs." Lenore said.
"I know that." Justin said.
Lenore smiled.
"Don't know Yugi was human, turned navi and can now interact." Lenore whispered to Justin.
Justin nodded. Yami chuckled at the tone.
-Now where have I heard That tone...-
/What tone?/
Yugi looked at Jamie who nuzzled in slightly.
-Bruce Wayne... gets this tone when doing business.-
/Yeah?/
-As they Say: Like Father...-
/True./
Yugi smiled and looked at Clark. Clark shrugged.
"I think he takes after his older siblings." He said.
Jamie was still very weak.
"We barely made it in time." Yugi said looking again at Jamie.
Clark agreed. Justin was trying on the duel disc. Yugi heard faint a thought drift through a link and heard Jamie thinking about Maylu and wanting her. Yami understood. Justin showed off the placement.
/Maylu...Jamie's thinking of her...he wants her at his age.../
-Will she and the kids agree to it?-
/not sure about the kids./
-Get the consensus Then go to Oberon.-
/I will./
"Here. His mom must be worried sick." Yugi said offering Jamie to Clark.
Clark took Jamie back. Yugi disappeared using shadow magic to teleport and appeared in front of Kat first. The teenager looked.
"Kat, Talla, your both here." Yugi said.
"Yeah... What's up?" Talla asked.
"Jamie...he wants Maylu." Yugi said.
Talla looked at her cousin.
"I think mom would do it if not for my younger siblings." Kat said.
"Same with mine... At least the kid's a cutie." Talla said.
"Yeah." Yugi said.
"That kid's Gonna Be A Heartbreaker, Let Me Tell Ya." Talla said.
"Which one?" Yugi asked.
"Wayne." Talla said.
"Yeah, his birthday party kinda got ruined." Yugi said.
"Of all the low down..." Talla said.
"By Luthor trying to kidnap Justin. Jamie protected him by hiding him and got grabbed by mistake." Yugi said in explaining.
Talla sighed.
"But now Jamie is safe just a bit weak." Yugi said.
Talla nodded.
"He had Justin freaking I think and guilt-ridden." Yugi said.
"He knew that he was the intended And whoever had Jamie was-." Talla said.
"Yeah." Yugi said.
Talla had her dad's way of leading.
"Yami and I found Jamie just in time." Yugi said.
Talla nodded. Yami looked at Bruce and Kara. Jamie nuzzled into Clark weakly. Clark soon landed. Lois ran to Clark.
"Is he ok." Lois said.
Clark explained. Lois sighed.
"But Justin feels that he should've been taken... Since Luthor-." Clark started.
Justin tried to hide from his family, knowing it was useless. He hadn't realized How Advanced that PETs had become.
"If he had been the one taken he may have died before rescue." Lois said.
"Try telling him." Clark said.
Lois sighed and nodded. Justin was in a spot that he used in playing with his siblings.
Lenore found Justin.
"Justin..." Lenore started.
Justin looked up.
"Should've let 'im take me..." He muttered.
"And you could be dead now from the kryptonite." Lenore said.
Tears began falling down Justin's cheeks.
"At least Jamie is alive and safe. He'll be fine given time." Lenore said hugging Justin.
Justin wept in the arms of his nanny, Confidante and His soul mate. Lenore comforted Justin as best she could. Justin was drifting off due to his state. Lenore picked him up. Justin felt it.
"Aw, just..." Rockman whispered.
Lenore smiled and took Justin to his room but was unsure of leaving him afraid Lex would try again.
"You can use your weapon capabilities out there, right?" Rockman whispered.
"I am a navi using a MDE not copybot so yes." Lenore said.
Rockman gave a look that would remind of one from the past.
"It was something Lan made." Lenore said.
Rockman nodded. Justin was struggling to stay awake.
"Sleep." Lenore said.
Justin eventually fell asleep. Lenore smiled. When put to bed, Justin slept through the night. He got up at his usual time and was getting ready for his day.
"Your dad's taking you on a business trip today." Lenore said.
"He hadn't said anything about it. Know where?" Justin said.
"Domino to KaibaCorb." Lenore said.
Justin nodded.
"There's a game shop you can get some cards from there." Lenore said.
Justin nodded, getting his dueldisc. Lenore smiled. Justin soon joined his parents for breakfast with Rockman and Ace at his side and heels. Lenore smiled and joined them petting the puppy knowing the only reason the puppy looked like a bull-dog and was still flesh and blood was it's collar.
"Remember not to take the collar off at least during the day." Lenore said.
Justin gave her a playful glare.
"I use to live at Xanatose's so know about Garbeasts...Specifically I know his clan." Lenore said.
Justin nodded.
"He was the runt." Lenore said.
Justin frowned at that.
"He was the Ugly Duckling?" He asked, not unkindly.
"Just the smallest. A mini version of his dad." Lenore said.
Justin nodded, thinking that he had to leave Ace at home. Lenore looked at Bruce as she pet Ace.
"Has to stay?" Justin said.
"Best at his age." Bruce said.
Justin nodded.
"Don't worry." Lenore said.
Justin again nodded and went on to eat his breakfast. Lenore scratched behind Ace's ear. Ace seemed to like it as his foot thumped upon the floor. Lenore smiled. Justin finished and went to get Ace's breakfast ready before he had to leave.
"That's his dad's favorite spot." Lenore said as she stopped to let him eat.
Justin laughed and looked at his family. Lenore smiled. Bruce smiled at Justin. Justin was ready when his father was. Soon Bruce was on his way to Domino. Justin was with him. When he wasn't in school, tagged along with his father. He was working and calculating strategies should he be challenged. He was an ace when it was netbattles. He was quickly learning how to duel and was becoming known in Gotham.
"My brother runs a shop in Domino." Alfred said.
Justin looked up. He then looked up at his father in the eye.
"Brother?" Bruce asked Alfred.
"He uses an alias. At least last name...Justin has meet one of his grandsons if not both. Yugi and Yami Motou." Alfred said.
"Dad, They were at my birthday party... They saved Kent, remember?" Justin said.
"Oh yeah. Yami's the one that gave you that Duel Disk right?" Bruce asked.
Justin nodded. Alfred pulled a box out of a pocket and put it on a tray table in front of him. It held a old deck it was an old duel monsters deck. Justin curiously looked inside. Alfred watched the boy. Justin took out the cards and began looking through them.
"A-Alfred…How did you come across this deck?" Justin asked.
Alfred kept watching.
"My brother sent them to me years ago." Alfred said.
Justin sighed. He put them in his duel disc.
"He said that you would know what to do with it when the time was right." Alfred said.
Justin slowly nodded. Alfred started coughing. Justin's hearing went into S mode.
"Rock... Vital stats..." He whispered.
Rock checked Alfred.
"Um...Justin..." Rock started sadly.
Justin picked up the PET and listened. Rock told him when the scan showed. Justin looked at his dad.
"Justin?" Bruce asked.
Justin relayed the results.
"Alfred?" Bruce asked.
"Gentlemen do not discus their health like that, Master Bruce." Alfred said.
Justin shook his head.
"And you think that I'm scared of doctors?" He asked his father.
"One of the research projects I fund..." Bruce started to thinking.
"Anything to do of why Kaiba's meeting..." Justin asked, almost saying us.
"Oh that one no...but...Victor Freeze could cure the first to stages of that disease." Bruce said.
Jamie though still weak from the kryptonite tried to fly to Arkham to talk to Mr. Freeze. Justin knew Jamie would sense what was going on through their bond. He usually kept quiet during business trips unless he was the one sent. Jamie flew into a lab that Mr. Freeze used.
"Excuse me, Dr. Freeze." Jamie started politely.
Victor looked at the boy. Jamie was in his supersuit and mask.
"I was hoping you could help a friend." Jamie said.
"Now why would I do that?" Victor curiously asked.
"Bruce Wayne might not be to happy if you didn't." Jamie said.
Jamie didn't know if his dad had followed him or not. Victor sighed then agreed.
"And yet you have the same eyes as his boy." Victor said.
"Well my daddy is..." Jamie started as a small breeze was felt.
"Hi, Daddy."
Clark looked between the two.
"I was getting help for Alfred...he has...Mc-Gre-gors..." Jamie started.
Clark nodded.
"The Wayne's butler's... special to them." Clark explained.
"Stepped in for Bruce's daddy after..." Jamie started.
Clark looked at Freeze. Jamie almost collapsed. Clark caught him as Justin hissed softly. Jamie had tired himself out.
"What happened?" Victor asked curiously.
"Wore himself out." Clark said with a slight chuckle.
"Did something happen before?" Victor asked.
Clark told of the bond, leaving out to past life angle. Victor sighed and showed Clark a photo of a baby girl. Clark gasped.
"My daughter." Victor said.
"This'll cause Bats to have a fit..." Clark said.
"Lex exposed me to green kryptonite...almost killed me but, the Motou twins saved me." Jamie said softly.
"He meant to get the latest Robin." Clark said.
"I hid him though and let Lex take me." Jamie said.
"Jamie... He was ready for that." Clark said.
"But. Lex still didn't get Robin." Jamie said.
"And we still need to get the medicine to Bruce and Alfred." He added.
"It's probably the stage you treated." Clark said to Freeze.
"If he's just showing signs then most likely." Mr. Freeze said pulling out the vials for Alfred.
Clark nodded as he took them.
"The two vials throughout the night by morning..." Mr. Freeze started.
"I'll tell Mr. Wayne." Clark said as Justin hoped that his Signal got through.
'Justin...' Jamie started mentally.
'Yeah Kent...' Justin mentally said.
'We got the cure for Alfred daddy and I got it from Mr. Freeze.' Jamie mentally said.
Justin let out a breath that he hadn't known that he was holding and it came out in a long sigh of relief.
"Justin?" Bruce asked.
"Superman and Superboy got the treatment... And before you start Alfred, you spent years looking after us, ain't it time we looked after you?" Justin said then asked with the innocence of a child.
Alfred sighed and smiled softly. Clark carried Jamie to where they could meet up with the three.
"Justin!" Jamie exclaimed.
Justin went to his cousin. Jamie hugged Justin.
Justin snuggled in, few knew how much of a little bat that he was if Jamie Wasn't there.
"You ok?" Jamie asked and Clark gave the medicine to Bruce and explained how to give it.
"I think we should take the bags to the car." Jamie whispered to Justin.
Justin nodded as Bruce understood. The deck was visible.
"You got a deck?" Justin asked.
"Alfred got it from his brother who was holding on to it..." Justin said as they worked.
