"Beware the Court of Owls
That watches all the time,
ruling the city from a shadowed perch behind Granite and Lime
They watch you in you hearth, they watch you your bed
Speak not a whisper word of them, or they'll send a TALON FOR YOU HEAD!" Hazama shouted making the girls scream
"Seriously, the court of owls?" Nagisa asked
"Didn't take you for a Batman fan Hazama" Isogai said "And besides its 'ruling Gotham from a shadowed perch'"
"I was making it more spooky by imply they could be in any city" Hazama said grumping
"Well I'm off to read another couple of comics" Isogai said
"Enjoy the weird dreams, I mean that's how I got into those dream fights with Deadpool, but reading some of them before bed." Nagisa deadpanned
"Okay then" Isogai said unsure.
That night Isogai started to dream, it started off with him in a cave filled with high tech computers and armour. Suddenly a bat symbol flashed on the screen.
"Another case tonight sir?" an English butler said
"Yes Alfred, are the kids in bed?" Isogai asked as he slipped into his Bat theme suit
"And fast asleep, I swear not even Gotham city exploding could wake those two" Alfred said.
"And yet your English muffins get them out of bed" Batman said as he pulled down his cowl. "Keep them safe" he said as he got into his Batmobile and took off.
Ten minutes later Batman arrived at where he was needed.
"I'm not liking this, Oracle you on?" Batman asked
"I'm here, what's up Isogai?" Oracle asked via earpiece
"I need to know what I'm up against?" Batman asked
"Give me a second, oh shit" Oracle said
"What is it?" Batman asked
"A message written in blood: Beware the Court"
"The Court of Owls, how long has it been?" he asked as he carefully descended into the building
"Five months. They nearly killed you last time. Physically and mentally" Oracle said
"Is that concern I hear Rio" Batman said
"Fear" Oracle said "And I haven't gone by that name in ages" she laughed
"I'm going in" Batman said
"Greetings Batman, we've been waiting for you" a voice said
"Talon, how long has it been since I kicked the court's ass?" Batman asked
"Too LONG!" Talon said revealing himself to be a ninja with Owl themed goggles, clawed gauntlet and grieves. Shortly two dozen more Talons joined, these ones lacking the grieves and gauntlet.
"Nice flock" Batman said as he threw his cape in the face of the head talon before sweeping off his feet. Several Talons leapt in. Batman quickly dodged or countered all of them with a flurry of kicks, punches and throws. "Is that all"
"No its not" The head Talon said as he drew an ancient sword. "We're just getting started" Talon said swinging his sword which was covered in a type of poison, forcing Batman onto the backfoot. Luckily he was wearing a titanium reinforced Kevlar plates over a suit made of titanium nanocompisite allowing him both protection and movement. The sword did slicing into the plating barely You upgraded your suit! Too bad it will not save you" Talon said as he slipped the sword in between the plates and his organ "I was hoping for your heart."
"Too bad" Batman said as he grabbed two Batarangs and shoved one of them into the Talon's eye
"ARGH!" Talon let loose an unearthly scream before batting Batman away while a flea.
"I hate it when these things turn undead" Batman said as one of the Talons jumped on his back.
"Down Birdie" Someone shouted as a whip curled around the Talon's throat and pull it off "Only I can play rough with the bat" a sultry voice said
"Catwoman, good to see you finally made it" Batman said
"You've seen better days" Catwoman said high kicking a Talon solider in the face.
"GET HER" Talon said
"Um did the big bad talon forget I'm a cat"
"So what" Talon asked
"I'm a cat!" she said slashing at the gathered soldiers with her Diamond tipped claws and whip while Batman took on the main Talon soldier with his bare knuckles.
"You're weak Batman, maybe playing with the twins! Oh yes I know who you are Yuuma Isogai" Talon said
"What" Isogai asked.
"Oh yes, dear little Maaya and courageous Youichi" Talon said "I'm going to enjoy killing them while listening to them scream!" Talon said
"NEVER!" Batman shouted breaking his neck. "I have to get back!" he shouted, soon he was killing the rest of the Court of Owl's soldiers
"Batman, Batman calm down" Catwoman said
"What?" Batman asked looking around seeing nothing
"You've been fighting shadows for fifteen minutes" Catwoman said
"What do you mean?" Batman asked confused
"You were doused by a new batch of Fear Toxin. A Talon was here, only he used the fear toxin on his sword. Once I leapt in to help you with they were gone" she said
"How did they get the fear toxin, and how did I get rid of it?" he asked
"We managed to find a antidote" Catwoman said unmasking Batman "Are you alright Yuuma?" she asked sweetly before being kissed
"Yes" Batman said exiting the building "thank you" he softly said
That night Isogai stood out on the bedroom balcony as Meg, Catwoman's alter ego laid in his bed.
"Yuuma, come back to bed" she said
"I will, I'm just enjoying the city" he said looking back
"It is rather beautiful at night isn't it?" she asked removing the covers from on top of her.
"I have to agree" Isogai said
"But what about me?" Meg purred as she twisted a piece of her hair around her finger. She stopped walking once she was in the moonlight, it illuminating her naked skin. "Am I pretty?" she asked
"The city cannot compare to how beautiful you look" Isogai said as he took her in his arm and kissed her neck. "And even the moon cannot help but enhance your beauty; inside and out" he whispered making Meg shiver in love.
"Well, most days us girls have our an ugly side" Meg said
"And that is hidden by night" he said as he kissed Meg before they were surround by light.
Isogai woke up smiling, he had an awesome dream. Suddenly a downpour of icy cold water flooded his vision
"Damn Ikeman, when I have a comic book dream I get my ass whooped, but when he does the comic book dream he gets the girl!" Nagisa said
"Seriously dude" Maehara said
"Morning guys" Isogai said "what's up?"
"Um...how about that" Karma said pointing to the tent in the bed making Isogai go wide eyed
"Damn it" Isogai muttered
"Hm, oh by the way, you may want to start running" Nagisa said
"Why?" Isogai asked as Kimura and Sugino walked in.
"5" Nagis started counting as the boys loaded their guns.
"Crap" Isogai said getting tangled in the sheets
"4" Karma said smiling as Isogai was in the hall way
"321" Maehara counted quickly running after him.
"That was a nice dream, maybe I should find a catwoman cosplay for Isogai's birthday" Meg said exiting the girls bath.
"GET BACK HERE!" five voice said
"What?" Meg asked as she saw her boyfriend and five of his friends, including his old friend Maehara
"Morning darling" Isogai said kissing her before running off. Meg just glared at the guys who froze.
"What do you have to say for yourself?"
"Damn Ikeman" Nagisa muttered
G'day Guys Grizz here with a big thanks to my usual partner in fanfic crime: animeandmangafangirl for suggesting Batman, so I decided to use my favourite Batman villains, as well as his greatest enemy: The Court of Owls, these guys are basically Gotham City weaponize being a secret society that controls Gotham from the shadows. Also they do something no other Batman villain does: Drive Batman insane, so much that you actually have to turn the comic! These guy beat the Joker hands down!
so until next time I'll catch you on the flipside, see you later
