She really had no idea how she got lured into a situation like if she had done something truly evil in past life and this was her punishment for it to be forever stuck with Bruce Wayne popping up like a daffodil in winter in her life.

He was tormenting her and she did not like it any bit.

And she still refused to call him Bruce. Even though she agreed to it, she was still not going to call him that, in fact she was not going to call him anything at all. Maybe she could call him Mr Wayne still just to annoy him and a little out of spite.


So, what if he was acting like a child. He was actually having some fun. And he enjoyed every moment he was with Clark because she treated him like Bruce and not as 'Brucie.'Plus he loved making her eyebrow twitch when she was annoyed and trying her best to hold back her anger.

What he did not enjoy was being called Mr Wayne because that was who his Father was and was just another reminder of what he had lost. And it made him feel older than in reality which was trying to pretend to be than actually which he was. And Clark knew he did not like being called Mr Wayne by now and kept doing it on purpose. She also did it out of spite, and he had put a stop to that and he was going to enjoy every minute of it.

He somewhat "pulling in her pigtails" Alfred had pointed out to him on several occasions and again when he had made conversation with Alfred to let him know what was going on.

And would like to know when Alfred had done the background check on Clark Kent not included who her mother and grandfather were. And how they were somewhat connected through their family by means of friendship and business.

He had met with Martha Kent when he was younger this was before his parents death. He had also caught a glimpse of her husband, Jonathan Kent the first day that he had met Clark.

Looking at both parents, he could tell in a split second that Clark Kent was not their biological daughter to either parent. He gave up that there might have been an affair because he knew Martha Kent and if her daughter and how he could tell about her upbringing there was none and would never be.

So, out of other possibilities there simplest and logical option seemed to be that she was adopted. He was surprised that he had not noticed that she was adopted earlier on, after all, she did seem to have that feeling of unknown grief about her. He could tell by this that she was adopted at a young age that she would not and could remember her biological family.


He was thinking too much and suspicious over nothing. His thoughts and time would be better spent elsewhere and doing what needed to be done to keep himself out of jail. Of all things, going to jail for the wrong vigilante, identity would be a cruel joke indeed that would be played on him. And would likely be the death of him if he was convicted and laughable because he always thought he would die as The Batman and not as the Green Arrow, of all things.

There was nothing that he could do now as Brucie Wayne to try and appeal to the public's attention that he was innocent. Now he would have to spend some time with the Kent girl to keep his Lawyer happy.

He knew that Clark did not like him and was annoyed right now if he but he could easily turn that around with the Brucie charm. He knew that she was not immune to it, and she was attracted him as he was attracted to her. He was going to charm her.

Oliver Queen had disappeared also from the Medias eye and had done quite discretely without any attention or news over his current whereabouts. If they had an ounce of intelligence they would have noticed there was no coincidence in both Oliver Queen and The Green Arrow disappear at the same time. Although it could be pointed out since his arrest t the Green Arrow's disappearance was no coincidence with Queen's disappearance. Not that they noticed or cared to pay attention right now as he was the most interesting news in America right now.

But Batman knew where the Green Arrow was.

The Green Arrow was last seen and located rescuing people in a bank in Star City. There were also rumours of a second archer dressed in black and was not one the good guys. The 'Dark Archer' as he was currently named by the media had used the people in the bank as hostages as unknown reasons. His current theory was that the Archer was using them as bait/distraction to get the Green Arrow to come after him. It was an obvious and predictable trap that someone with any sense could see miles away (Oliver was not one these people.) and had worked well.

Hostages were rescued by the police. An additional three men dressed in black outfits and blacks were found dead with green arrows as the result of their deaths. Four of the witnesses were found dead and some with minor injuries. There was no sight of the Green Arrow; all a small pile of blood was found. He had thought to be killed there by The Dark Archer

The same day Oliver Queen also happened to be in a motorbike accident that consisted with severe injuries. These injuries were more constant with a beating than a motorbike accident. Oliver Queen was currently in a medically induced coma because of these injuries and more importantly to keep him alive. Thus, there was no Green Arrow doing his job and the reason why he was under house arrest.

With Green Arrow out of action, this opportunity was used to frame him and takeover and hijack his company from under him. He knew that Lex Luthor was the main driving force behind this. But his suspicion was telling him that there were more going than on than the eye could see.

Merlyn Global had been succeeding well in business lately. Along with other companies as well but Meryln Global was second in the race of success and that place was usually reserved for Wayne Industries or Lex Corp.

If the rumours that he had hear about Malcolm Meryln from the League of Shadows was true the he would have to brace himself for what was to come next. And Oliver that is if he would already get himself together and wake up from that damn coma already.

By now he had come up with a few necessary arrangements and contingency plans if anything would not go in his favour.
