Hello all! I'm writing from school. I cannot promise very often updates, but I will try my hardest to keep up with this story. I think this will be the last chapter for Batman Begins, and then I will have a bridge chapter between movies. You know, set up of MCU. =D gotta have that!

Rae—Thanks for noticing that. You have no idea how hard it is to keep in line with it. It's surprisingly hard, I'm finding. LOL

Hannah—Yeah, I'm not happy about here today, but I'm here. =( I wish that I could have just stayed at home and slept. LOL Good luck with school tomorrow. We have to run a mile tomorrow in PE…..=( I don't like running LOL Oh well. Here's the update.

Jousting Elf—What turn are you talking about? I don't really pay attention to what I write; it just comes out. Then I read it over again, and if I don't like it, I rewrite it. That's just me though. So you must tell.

Johanna—Well, I hope that I captured Bruce's suaviness…if that's actually a word. Gotta tell me if I didn't get his character right. I think I got close, but I'm not sure.

Tasha—I'm glad that you like it. Don't worry, there will be a few more romance scenes, and watch what you're writing. LOL See ya tomorrow!

Here is the chapter. Hope you like it.

I followed Batman down the streets of the Narrows. Honestly, I was scared. I didn't know who these people were that I was up against, and I hadn't used my martial arts stuff since I was training. I pretty much relied on my gun. I wondered if it was that man that was at Bruce's party, and his men. He did seem kind of sinister, but I didn't want to let that affect me. I reached back and pulled out the sword and messed around with it, just to get a feel for what I was going to be using. I looked over at the towering black figure that stood next to me, and for a second, I was scared witless of this guy. I took a deep breath and gained courage to ask what I was actually going to be doing. Yeah, I still didn't exactly know what the plan was. I cleared my throat and he looked down at me. "What exactly am I doing again?"

He really wasn't that much taller than me, but just his presence made me feel small. "I want you to go to the train. Just blend in and do exactly what he says."

I cut in. "Who's he?"

He looked at me blankly. It was a cold stare.

I shrunk away. "Sorry. I was just wondering." I smiled; it was small and shy. "So then what?" I brought the conversation back to where it was supposed to be going.

"Hopefully, their leader will be in a different car, which is where I'll be. I want you to take out his men."

It sounded so much simpler than it probably would be. "You make it sound so easy!"

"I hope that it is, but they are very well trained," he reassured, sort of. He looked at me with dark eyes. He saw my uncertainty. "You'll do fine."

I smiled and nodded. "Thanks."

We continued walking. The fog seemed to be getting thicker. I coughed from the stuffiness. "Can I take this mask off till we get there?"

He nodded shortly.

I was surprised that no one was coming to bother us, but I soon saw why. There was woman and a boy that reminded me of Jimmy. I just stood there and stared. I didn't think that it was Jimmy, but I couldn't move to find out. I was just frozen. It didn't even seem like I could blink.

Batman placed his hand on my back. "It's not him." How could he always read my mind? "I'm gonna help them, but you need to keep moving." He gave me a little push.

I was forced forward by his hand, but I couldn't tear my eyes away from the little boy and that girl. That girl I suddenly realized was Rachel Dawes. She couldn't seem to stay away from trouble, but none of the good guys could these days.

"Don't look back," he growled.

I walked on, leaving Batman, a man that I had learned to trust with my life, behind. I obeyed his command and didn't look back, not once. I was focusing so much on the task at hand. It was going to be difficult, but he trusted me to do it, and I wasn't going to let him down. I came to where they were and pulled the mask over my face. I was, thankfully, about the same height as most of them, but I sure hoped that the leader, whoever he may be, didn't do a head count. If he did, I was screwed. I nodded to the other men as they saw me approaching. I looked over the men; there were about ten. I sighed. This was not going to be easy, but hopefully Batman would help out with that.

The man from Bruce's party was observing a couple men moving this machine thing over to us. He was tossing orders around with his cane tossed over his shoulder. He looked completely calm about what he was about to do. I clenched my fists, but I tried to keep my cool about this. I couldn't let them know about who I was. Ropes dropped from the train above; two of the men grabbed the ropes and carefully wrapped them around the machine that was obviously causing the vaporization of the water in the mains.

"Raise it up," the man that I think was Ra's al Ghul ordered.

They obeyed and the machine was hoisted into the train car.

"Men, let the destruction begin," he smirked.

Thankfully, Batman came sort of swooping in. "It ends here."

"For you and the police, maybe," he cooed. "My fight, however, lies with the rest of Gotham." For a sinister, evildoer, he was rather charming. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a city to destroy."

I stared at Batman with terrified eyes as I was pulled up to the train on a rope. There was no way I could beat all of his men. There was just no possible way. He nodded to me in reassurance as I rose further.

"I can't beat two of your pawns?" I couldn't tell if it was a threat or an insult.

"As you wish," al Ghul smiled as about three or four of them dropped down to fight Batman. I would have personally preferred less, but what could I do? He helped me the most he could, and I was certainly thankful.

I watched as Batman fought them. I sat in the train, and kept silent. It seemed to be a general thing that all of them did. I waited for a while, and as I waited, my mind wandered. I wondered how Dad was doing. He wasn't that great of a driver, and since it was rather sensitive, I wondered if he was going to make it. I smiled under my mask, but then my mind wandered to Bruce Wayne. I was almost sure that he wasn't Batman, but his conversation with Ra's al Ghul made me wonder. I couldn't get Bruce's smile out of my head. When he saw me, he just looked so happy. It was rather entertaining actually, but it was all disrupted by Batman; physically and mentally. Just as he burst into al Ghul's car, he turned around and nodded at me.

Go time. I stood up, but they were faster. They had all ready gotten to their feet and were closing around me. They didn't need their swords, and I decided that I wasn't going to use mine unless I actually needed to. I pulled off the gas mask and facemask and let my hair fall around my shoulders. Normally I hated my hair not pulled back, but now, it was important to me that they knew I was a girl. Besides, I didn't have time to pull it back. "You fellas ready to get your butts kicked by a girl!?" It was mostly to boost my confidence, but maybe to intimidate them a little bit. The fights began.

Batman wasn't really fighting, but I could see some tension that would turn into a fight; it did. I looked over for a second, and I got socked in the face. Okay, now I was getting serious. I just began kicking butt. I don't think I could ever do what I pulled off again. I was like, surprised to say it, but like Batman. I took out all of those guys. I was impressed. I dusted off my hands as I looked at several men lying unconscious on the floor. I turned around to see Batman on the floor, pinned downed by al Ghul. This guy had to be really good. I cautiously stepped over to his car. Neither noticed.

"…afraid, Bruce," al Ghul soothed.

I stood there as I had come in on a part of the conversation that I didn't want to hear. I brushed it off as a hit to the head that was making me hear things. I was thinking about Bruce and I got hit in the head. That's what it was. Batman was not Bruce Wayne, right? No! I moved forward.

"You're just an ordinary man in cape," he ridiculed. "That's why you couldn't fit injustice."

I had drawn my sword and was right behind al Ghul. Batman looked up to me with hopeful eyes, and when I stared into them, I could see Bruce. Now I was seeing things. Great. I held my sword poised over al Ghul's neck. I held my breath and noticed the sword jammed into the breaking system.

"And that's why you can't stop this train." I could tell that he was pressing down on Batman's neck, and that he was getting close to unconsciousness.

I pressed the sword down on his neck. It wasn't hard enough to injure him, but there was just enough pressure to show that I was there. "Who said anything about stopping it?"

He turned around to face me. His eyes were filled with shock, as he looked deep into mine. I didn't know what he could see, but I knew that he had never been beaten, or put at sword edge, by a woman. He was not happy. He took the blade of the sword and slammed it into my stomach.

It wasn't enough to knock me out, but it was enough to throw me back with the wind incredibly thrown out of me. It hurt. He had a lot of strength beneath the velvet suit and charm. I lay on the metal floor with my hands on my stomach, trying to get my breath back.

"You never learned to mind your surroundings," Batman hissed as the support gave way and fell to the ground.

I smiled because I knew that Dad had done his job.

"Have you finally learned to do what is necessary?" al Ghul interrogated smoothly. He seemed at peace with whatever was going to happen.

"I won't kill you," Batman explained as he blew out the back of the car, "but I don't have to save you." He grabbed me. As we flew out, I saw Ra's al Ghul's eyes fill with terror, but he smiled as he came at peace with what was going to happen.

I clutched tightly to Batman as we glided over Gotham. I was scared senseless, and despite my best efforts, I don't think I succeeded at not showing it. He dropped me off next to Dad.

He nodded to both of us. "Good job." He flew off into the night. He was our faithful companion and savior.

I smiled, knowing that Gotham was in the safe hand of Batman.

Well, I don't think that it was that great, but I don't have time to fix it. I hope that you guys like it. Please review! I always love reading what you have to say. I was thinking I was gonna be done with Batman Begins, but then I remembered the very ending scene. How could I forget? So I'll write a short little chapter about that, and hopefully, I'll be able to get it up tomorrow. Sorry that the fight thing wasn't that great, but I'm not really good with that. Please review, and tell me how I did! Wish me luck on my mile tomorrow! I'm gonna need it! Till next chapter!
