The sounds of crashing metal and explosions shook the facility, sending debris flying. His cape billowed in the breeze, the light of the flames illuminating his cowl. Batman faced the towering figure known as Doomsday, a monster who'd brought terror to the world countless times, the very being that had once struck down Superman during their fateful battle.

Doomsday snarled in an animalistic fashion, staring down upon the Dark Knight, determined to eliminate the costumed crime-fighter standing in his way. The beast's eyes glowed red and fired off another heat laser at Batman, who ducked the attack in the nick of time, and the beams struck a gas canister nearby.

Another explosion ruptured the facility and Batman went flying, crashing into a beam. He felt a sharp hint of pain in his cheek, another slight injury, one he could walk off.

"GAH!" He felt pain explode in his back, recalling when Bane had beaten him. Doomsday had struck with his guard down, Batman grimaced and struggled back to his feet, he was not going to let the monster beat him like it once did with Superman.

He was vengeance, he was the knight, he was the protector and the crusader of justice.

He was Batman!

Doomsday's hook came at him again and Batman ducked, grabbing his grappling hook from his belt. He aimed at the monster and fired, the hook pierced through the beast's shoulder and dark blood tainted the ground. Batman made a dive for the Kryptonian spear that he'd brought with him, one of many weapons he rarely used.

Batman shrugged off the aches he was feeling, ignoring the battle damage he's sustained. Adrenaline was rushing through him like never before, no matter the odds, he would always fight until the enemy was defeated.

The monster lumbered towards the Dark Knight again, Batman prepared himself and threw the spear, the weapon's tip lanced through Doomsday's torso and the beast toppled over, bellowing in pain.

'Serves you damn right...' Batman thought.

Doomsday howled, eyes furiously fixed on the Caped Crusader, and his fist came down, hitting Batman in the side. Taken off guard by this last attack, Batman toppled over, clutching his arm, now feeling his consciousness slip away from all the pain and exhaustion he'd sustained during the battle. He remained awake, long enough to see Doomsday fall, to see Superman get back up.

His vision blurred, Batman coughed and lay still, seeing the Man of Steel hover over him while surveying the fallen monster. Then he heard her voice, hearing her voice her concern. His heart was still beating, he would live, but he needed rest.

And the last thing Batman felt was her hands under his back, lifting him up slowly...


Bruce's eyes opened, his sense of touch coming back. He could feel the ache in his arm, his back somewhat hurting, then he felt the smoothness of... grass. He rolled over, looking up at the sky, at... the rocks and the mountain, steam was filling his ears. He saw the tree, the leaves falling down around him. The superhero billionaire slowly sat up, noticing that he only wore his mask and his tights.

He was shirtless, even barefoot. A bandage rested on his arm, and he could feel another on his back. And he didn't feel a sharp pain in his ribs or abdomen, someone must have tended his wounds thoroughly.

And the last thing he remembered... was fighting Doomsday.

The recovering billionaire stood up, looking around in the direction of that steam, and he saw that he was next to a hot spring. The water looked... inviting, and yet, why wear a mask at a hot spring?

Bruce walked towards the spring, setting foot in the pool of steam and water. He rubbed his head, overcoming the last trace of dizziness. Someone had brought him here, but where was this place? And yet, he had this feeling that he was somewhere he'd been to before. He'd gone hiking in the mountains before and seen plenty of hot springs; this spring so different and so was the environment.

"You know you can take the mask off..."

He turned, hearing the serene and inviting voice, and his heart became a saxophone. Wonder Woman, Diana Prince, sat in the water by a rock on the other end of the springs as she looked up at him.

Bruce noticed her belt and costume laying on the ground near a tree, the only thing the Amazon was wearing was a deep blue string bikini with her tiara and gauntlets as the only pieces of her costume on Diana's person in the hot spring. Diana crossed her legs, her right leg resting over her left knee, her arms resting on the rocks behind her.

"W... Diana..." Bruce said, resisting the urge to speak in his superhero voice and address the woman he loved by her superhero name, "You're a serene sight for the eyes of a Wayne. Where are we?"

"The hot springs of Themyscira..." Diana said, "I thought it would help you heal, and, as a bonus, we get some... alone time... together, so we can finally have that hot spring date, which is overdue. Don't you remember talking about taking me to the hot springs last week?"

"Work's been rough, honey." Bruce replied, sitting down on the rock behind him, "And I don't recall planning on visiting an Amazonian hot spring..."

The bikini-clad Amazonian superhero giggled and winked at Bruce in a flirtatious manner. "The hot springs of Themyscira are open to the relaxing needs of mortal men like the famous Batman and are ready to heal you, Mr. Wayne." She said in a seductive tone.

"And your generosity and regard for my well-being makes me feel better already, your highness." Bruce told Diana.

His girlfriend adjusted her legs, causing a slight ripple and splash in the water, and rose to her feet, revealing her figure to the Dark Knight as she approached him with her hips swaying. The steam swirled around her as the bikini-clad Amazon walked towards Bruce and stroked his chest gently, looking at him into his deep blue eyes behind the mask with an enchanting smile.

"I love you, Bruce Wayne..." Diana said, "And after what you went through today, after what you've been through, I don't like seeing you so badly hurt and I want you safe and in less pain. I care about you immensely, just as you care about Gotham and the rest of us. Let my love be your medicine to your pain, the potion that soothes your trauma and sorrow..."

"You are..." Bruce said, "You're the one who ensures my faith in humanity never wavers, your beauty makes my heart and soul mold. And your beauty makes me feel strong as Bruce Wayne, giving me the strength to keep going as the one who brings the Justice League together..."

Diana pressed herself against the Batman's torso, sending a slight chill up his spine as he felt her cleavage rub up against his being, and the dark-haired swimsuit-wearing beauty cupped his face.

"We Amazons of Themyscira have enchanted men over the ages with our beauty, mostly to lure unfortunate souls who come our way into a trap before harshly dealing with them..." Diana whispered, "But the love between is us different, unlike the affairs between men and amazons of the past, you and I are brought together by compassion above all else..."

Bruce folded his muscular arms around Diana's smooth back underneath her long hair, holding her closer to himself as their eyes locked. Their hearts pounded in sync, becoming intertwined, Bruce and Diana could feel their love growing with the need to express it becoming more irresistible.

"I love you so dearly, Diana..." Bruce whispered.

Diana smiled and leaned her head in, Bruce leaned closer, and the shapely Amazon connected with the billionaire in a hard, deep kiss. Bruce returned the kissed, kissing the dark-haired beauty to the limit.

He stood up and let Diana remove his mask, revealing his face and his dark-brown hair, and then she cast it aside, letting drop upon the grass next to the tree, helping Bruce let go of the persona of Batman for now. Bruce and Diana melted further into the kiss as the steam swirled around their beings, kissing harder as Bruce cusped her hips in a gentle manner.

Paradise, it felt so right.

A few minutes later, Diana lay upon the smooth grass next to the hot spring with her bikini top partially unhooked, her chin resting on her wrists as Bruce sat atop her, legs between his, as he treated her to a special massage with his hands massaging Diana's back and moving up and down her spine all the way to her shoulders.

The Batman gently massaged every inch of his shapely wonder girlfriend's back and shoulders, making her feel happy and content. Diana then sat up, leaning back against her boyfriend's shoulders while she reached over her shoulder to stroke his chin.

"Did you know that Themyscira is also called Paradise Island?" Diana asked.

"I didn't..." Bruce chuckled, "But I know why it's also called that now..."

He finished massaging her shoulders and Diana turned around, kissing Bruce on the nose. Then she snaked her arms around his neck and pulled him into another kiss. Bruce pressed himself unto her, pinning Diana to the ground as they kissed. They then turned over with Diana laying atop the Bat, they locked eyes again and began to make-out with Bruce gently holding Diana's smooth bikini-clad hips.

Diana licked Bruce's cheek, Bruce returned the favor and licked her neck gently before planting another lick upon her cheek. Diana giggled and nuzzled her head against his chest, then she sat up, straddling Bruce in a playful manner before leaning in to give him another kiss.

Unbeknownst to them, a pair of leather-clad Amazons in spears were watching from the peaks, one amazon was blonde and the other had red hair. The blonde gazed through a pair of binoculars, observing Bruce and Diana's make-out session for a time, then she put them down.

"Should we go talk to the queen or let them be?" Amaine asked, turning to her associate.

"Let them be..." Dilia replied, "The Queen has no objection to what the princess' choice is."

The two guards began to walk away with the blonde, Amaine, looking at her red-haired friend and saying, "You want to travel to the lands beyond and make-out with a mortal man?"

"Our duty binds us here..." Dilia said, she then smiled, "But Diana's suitor is quite handsome..."

Amaine seemed to lighten up, liking that idea and turned around to observe the scene of Bruce and Diana making love by the hot springs one more time, then she walked off with Dilia before they began to discuss their ideas of hanging out with tasty handsome mortal males...

The End
