This is the final chapter. I know this story isn't much, but I hope you still enjoyed it, more or less.
Leave a review after reading, please.
Special thanks to baratta. jennifer and Steve993 for reviewing the previous chapter.
To Bulelo: I'm afraid it's gonna have to wait. I want to finish my Arrowverse stories (and "Infinity 2") before I continue my Descendants FanFiction stories. Sorry. By the way, please don't review here if you're not gonna talk about the story. I don't mean to sound rude. It just irritates me when someone leaves a comment unrelated to the story.
At the D.E.O., Supergirl was being checked in the medical bay.
"Well, seems like you're 100%," said Alex.
"Of course I am," said Supergirl.
"Are you sure it was good idea to let the Batman keep the Mother Box?" asked Alex.
"I trust him," said Supergirl.
"Does he trust you?" asked Alex.
"I think he does," said Supergirl.
"I don't even have to read his mind to see that," said J'onn.
"How's James by the way?" asked M'gann.
"Still sore, but he's at CatCo, so he's fine," said Supergirl.
"It was bold of him to leave Henshaw without a scratch," said J'onn.
"I would've bruised his metal face, but it shows that he's willing to show mercy," said Supergirl.
"I thought he doesn't kill," said M'gann.
"She means he's learning to not beat up criminals unless it's necessary," clarified Winn.
"Kara, I need to speak with you," said J'onn.
Supergirl and J'onn leave the room to talk in private.
"What do you want to talk about?" asked Supergirl.
"How dumb it was for you to put yourself in danger," said J'onn.
"In my defense, I was testing Batman," said Supergirl.
"What happened to our little talk about patience?" asked J'onn.
"Guess this girl got tired waiting," said Supergirl. "I'm sorry."
"It's okay," said J'onn. "In fact, you taught me a lesson. Sometimes, it's not about patience. It's about trusting your gut, and that makes me proud of you."
Supergirl smiles.
"By the way, how's our pointy-eared friend?" asked J'onn.
"Haven't talked to him yet, but I'm planning to before he leaves," said Supergirl. "He still owes that one chat."
"And what would this chat be about?" questioned J'onn.
"If you're implying that I'm interested in him, maybe I'll give him a kiss too," joked Supergirl.
Supergirl giggled. J'onn laughed a little.
"It took your cousin two years to gain his trust. It seems you gained it in less than a week," said J'onn, impressed.
"Well, I'm hard to resist," said Supergirl.
J'onn smiled in amusement. "Get out of here, Ms. Danvers."
"Excuse me?" Supergirl felt offended.
"Go find the Dark Knight and give him the talk," said J'onn. "I'll tell Alex to put on her overprotective sister face the next time she sees you."
J'onn walks away.
"Sarcastic joking fits you better," commented Supergirl.
Meanwhile, at CatCo, James Olsen was organizing some photos. He then sees something sticking out from under the couch. It was little box. The card attached to it had a bat symbol on it. James smiled, knowing who it came from.
He opened the box and finds a shield similar to the one on his suit. There was a card attached to it. It says:
"Lead coated with MR Fluid. Not even a cyborg can dent it."
James turns the card around in case there was something else. There was. It says:
"You did good, kid."
James smiled again. He actually impressed the great Batman. He closes the box and looks out the window, thinking about the man who had just helped him take the first step into turning Guardian from a symbol of fear to a symbol of hope. He only hopes he sees him again. He has so much he wants to learn from the veteran vigilante.
Kara heads to L-Corp when she heard Lena was saying goodbye to Bruce. She arrives to see Lena with Bruce, who was just about to enter his car.
"Am I interrupting something?" started Kara.
"Ms. Danvers, nice to see you again," greeted Bruce.
"Uh, Lena, can Bruce and I talk for a moment?" asked Kara.
"I take it this is about the date," guessed Lena.
"Something like that," said Kara.
Bruce didn't argue and goes with Kara. The two pick a spot far away and out of Lena's sight.
"For the record, I've already thought of twelve things you're probably gonna say to me," said Bruce. "One of them is probably, 'Hurt my friend and I'll burn your suit'."
"Always one step ahead of everyone, aren't you?" Kara smiled at him.
"Just tell me what you have to say," said Bruce.
"I just want to say thank you," said Kara.
"For what?" asked Bruce.
"For helping James," answered Kara. "And for trusting me."
"Who says I trust you?" asked Bruce, speaking as if Kara is talking nonsense.
"I trust you, you trust me, remember?" replied Kara.
"Can't argue with that logic," said Bruce.
Kara smiles.
"Stay safe, Bruce," said Kara.
"I always am," said Bruce.
Kara just chortled. She puts both her hands on Bruce's face and gives him a kiss on his forehead.
"What was that for, Ms. Danvers?" asked Bruce.
"Just wishing you good luck," said Kara. "And call me Kara."
"No problem," said Bruce. "Kara."
Bruce returns to Lena. Kara kept her distance, wanting the two to have a moment alone. Kara was surprised when Bruce leaned in and gave Lena a kiss on the cheek. Lena looked like she was blushing. Kara didn't know if she should be acting like a couples shipper or an overprotective friend.
Bruce enters his car and drives out of the city.
"Looks like someone has the hots for Bruce Wayne," teased Kara.
"Well, I wouldn't go that far," said Lena.
"He sure is something," said Kara.
"Well, you can't believe everything you read on the papers... or the internet," said Lena.
Kara and Lena sigh with glee together as they watched Bruce drive away.
And that's the end. Personally, I didn't think this was a good story, but I hope all of you out there think it's good enough. Besides, this story is setting up something big. That will have to wait a really long time, I'm afraid.
