Back with another chapter. This chapter may not be the best, but it should hopefully still be good.

Let's get to it.

Chapter 10- Training

Nora and Stephen speed around the outskirts of Keystone City. It's been two weeks since they visited the Reverse Flash in Iron Heights, and they are continuing their training under Thawne's tutelage. Over their comms, they can hear the voice of Thawne.

"How are you doing on your speed?" he asks.

Nora looks at her wrist, where a device William made for her to track her speed rests. "We're running at three times our previous record. Right about Mach 10. And we're not going as fast as we can," Nora responds.

"Good. I estimate your top speed right now to be between Mach 13 and Mach 14. According to your reports, that should be close to Godspeed's new top speed," Thawne says.

"Yes! Finally!" Nora says victoriously.

"Now. I think it's time for you to learn your next trick. Do you two see any walls nearby? Preferably made of concrete," Thawne asks.

"Why?" Stephen asks.

"Because. I want you two to run into one. Or rather, through one," Thawne says.

"What?!" the twins respond in unison.

"If you vibrate at the natural frequency of air, your body, your cells, will be in a constant state of excitement that should allow you to phase through that wall," Thawne explains.

"You're kidding me, right?" Stephen asks.

"No. I'm not kidding," Thawne responds.

"I don't know if we can do that," Nora says.

"Listen to me you two. Listen to my voice. Breathe. Breathe. Feel the wind on your face. The ground beneath your feet. And the lightning. Feel the lightning. It's electricity surging through your veins. To your nerve ending from the crown of your head to the tips of your toes like an electric shock you never want to end. You're part of something greater now. You're part of the Speed Force. And it's power, it's power is yours to use. Now do it," Thawne says.

The twins look at each other, and nod. Then, they focus. Following Thawne's words as they begin to vibrate.

Up ahead, a brick wall looms in their path. Confidently, the twins run right at it. And phase right through it.

The two come skidding to a stop, surprised at first. Then, they turn to each other, beaming at their success. "Thawne, we did it!" Nora cries in excitement.

"Good. Excellent work," Thawne praises them.

(Flash lair)

Jenna grunts in pain as she is thrown to the ground again. She looks up at Diana, who is smiling down at her.

"You know, I'm regretting asking you to not take it easy on me," Jenna responds.

Diana smiles as she extends her hand and helps her to her feet. "You are adept at swordplay for someone your age. I am impressed at your skills."

"Well, I did have a little training from Slade Wilson," Jenna says.

Diana smiles again. "And you have advanced since I started teaching you. Yet you still have far to go," Diana says.

Jenna smiles and nods. Diana then sets down her sword and picks up a bo staff. She turns to Zoe and says, "Alright, Black Canary. Your turn now."

Zoe smiles as she holds her batons. The two circle each other for a few moments, then Zoe rushes at Diana. Diana blocks Zoe's blows without any trouble, but Zoe is able evade Diana's counterstrike. For half a minute, the two spar, until Diana gets under Zoe's guard and trips her up, laying her on her back.

"Excellent!" Diana says in praise. Despite her defeat, Zoe smiles. When she started training with Diana, her record for how long she could last was 9 seconds.

"I think you two are making excellent progress," Diana says as she helps Zoe to her feet.

"BINGO!" Jenna and Zoe jump a bit at the exclamation, and they hurry into the next room, where William is looking very triumphant.

"What is it?" Zoe asks.

"I found it! I found where Godspeed and his Rogues have been operating from!" William says excitedly.

Jenna and Zoe's eyes widen at the news. At the same time, John comes rushing in as well, looking excited.

"Where is it?" John asks.

"It's an old compound that Amunet Black used during her days as a crime lord. It's located on the northern outskirts of the city," William says.

"Where are Nora and Stephen?" Zoe asks.

"I don't know. They're still doing that training with Thawne. Their comms are off right now. But, I don't think Godspeed is gonna be a problem. I just saw him run out of the compound on traffic cameras. If you go there now, you may be able to get there before he gets back," William says.

They all look at each other, and John says, "Alright. Let's go."

They all hurry into where the team's motorcycles are kept. They each grab one and speed off through the streets heading towards the compound.

Thanks to the lack of cars on the road, it only takes them about 20 minutes at high speed to reach the place. They come screeching to a stop outside and leap off the motorcycles. They all look at each other, nod once, then head towards the door, with Diana leading the way.

As they get to the door, Diana looks back at her new allies, nods once, then turns back to the door and kicks it in, racing inside.

Instead of coming face to face with any of the Rogues, she is met by several men wearing black camo and wielding assault rifles. They are caught off guard by her sudden appearance, giving Diana the chance to race forward, drawing her sword and decapitating them all in three rapid strokes. Their bodies hit the floor as Diana turns towards a hallway leading further into the compound. As she walks towards it, two more men race into sight, guns raised.

Diana raises her shield as the men open fire, bending forward slightly to reduce the chance of a bullet catching her in the leg. She just holds her shield steady as the men keep firing.

Suddenly, a loud scream split the air. Diana, already equipped with earbuds to protect her from the noise, isn't bothered, but the two men drop their guns and clutch their ears in agony. Then, John jumps into view, firing arrows into their shoulders and causing them to collapse.

"Good timing," Diana says. She then motions them forward.

The team heads down the hallway. As they do, a door is suddenly thrown open and more men rush out of it.

The team reacts instantly. John nocks two arrows at once and fires them at two of the men. Zoe draws her batons and clubs another over the head. Diana kills two more with her sword. And Jenna summons her psychic sword and kills the last two.

They stand there for a moment, then Zoe says, "Let's check that room." Everyone nods. John walks into the room, bow raised, but lowers it once he gets into the room.

"Looks like their armory. Not much in here though," he says as he comes out of the room.

"Hmm. That's weird," Jenna says.

"Indeed. We should proceed with caution," Diana says before proceeding down the hall, holding her shield out in front of her. The others follow her cautiously, weapons at the ready.

As they reach a corner, Diana pears around it, then doubles back. Seeing that, the others stop.

"What is it?" Jenna asks quietly.

"It looks to be the main room. There are several computers and cabinets…and at least 25 men," Diana responds.

"At least 25? Well, that shouldn't be too much of a problem," John says confidently. Jenna and Zoe both grin a bit.

"My thoughts exactly," Diana says. She then adjusts her grip on her sword before turning and sprinting around the corner, the others following her.

The guards are caught completely off guard. John fires two arrows as Diana swings her sword and cuts a man in half. The guards cry out in alarm and start to raise their guns, but Zoe unleashes her Canary Cry, and many of them clutch at their ears in agony.

The four heroes attack the guards as they are attempting the recover. Nine more guards get taken out before they start to fight back. Realizing their guns are not as effective at such close range, some draw knives, others drop their guns and attack with their fists, and some try to use their guns as melee weapons.

It doesn't take long before they have knocked out all the guards. But, right as they do, 10 more race in.

Diana takes on three. She ducks under one man's blow and cuts off his hand before smacking him with her shield and knocking him out. Before the others can make a move, she stabs one of them through the chest.

As she is turning to the third, there is a whistling, and the man collapses with a cry of pain, a black shape stuck in his back. Diana looks down, and to her surprise and joy, she says a black metal bat sticking out of the man's back.

Right then, four more guards rush into the room. As they do, there is a flapping sound from overhead. They look up, just in time to see Batman, fully masked and now wearing a cape, flying down at them from a broken window. He lands in the midst of them before they can react and quickly knocks them out with quick punches to the face.

By now, all other guards are all unconscious or dead. John, Jenna, and Zoe turn to see the last combat in the room, and Zoe and Jenna's eyes widen.

"BRUCE!" they both cry in surprise.

"The Batman," John says in amazement.

Bruce turns to face Diana, who is looking at him with a smile on her face. "It's good to see you again, Diana," he says.

"It's been too long, Bruce," Diana replies.

Right then, Jenna and Zoe run up and give Bruce a hug. "It's so good to see you again, Bruce!" Jenna cries. Bruce can't help but smile a bit.

"It's good to see you both," he says to his former students.

"What are you doing here? William says you were planning to die on Lian Yu," Zoe asks.

"I thought a lot about what William said while he was on Lian Yu. And I realized I'd hidden from the world long enough. If I'm gonna die, it might as well be while fighting to protect freedom. I didn't want my legacy, and the legacy of the Batman, to end as a hermit on Lian Yu. And I knew you needed all the help you could get," Bruce replies. He pauses, then grins as he says, "Plus, I didn't want to be the butt of jokes between Jenna and Zoe for sitting around when there's a fight going."

Jenna and Zoe can't help but laugh a bit. "We weren't doing that," Jenna says.

Diana and John join with a few chuckles. Then, Diana asks, "So you are here to help?"

"Yeah. I may not be much help in a fight. Like I said to William, I'm not as young as I used to be. But, I'll still help any way I can. Either way, the Batman is back in action," Bruce says.

And, I'll end there. Hope you liked this chapter.

I felt this was a good place to bring Batman back. The final battle is almost upon us, so it's time for him to come back to help them prepare for it. I don't plan for him to actually be in the fight, as like I said in the end of Soldier of Star City, Bruce is in his late 70s, so he's not in prime fighting shape. He'll be playing another, yet very important, role.

Let me know how I did with this chapter, and stay tuned for the next one.
