Chapter 1448 A New Bat
I don't own Bleach or any of the powers and gear used in this story.
Draco was with Victor at the mansion as the demon Slayer rubs his arms.
"Damn that thing, there just had to be a rogue symbiote." Victor said.
Harribel came. "It seems your having trouble."
"With everything that's happening that's to be expected." Draco said.
Nel checks on Victor as she was worried about him.
"Also I heard that Eric went to Batman's world." Victor said.
"It seems he wanted to do something important." Draco said.
They wondered what he'll be doing there.
With Eric
He was going down Gotham and he was inside of his Ranger Javelin armor.
"Better go around in a Javelin to be in the superhero theme." He said.
He saw a few punks and they were walking around with guns.
"We better go before Batman comes."
"Don't worry, if he tries anything he's done for."
But then they're guns got shot off and they saw Eric come foward with the lawgiver ready.
"I am the Law!" Eric said.
"Who's this guy?!"
"I don't know!"
They took out more guns to shoot but the bullets bounced off his suit as he kept going.
He then strikes them one by one knocking them all down.
"Your all under arrest." He said.
Someone comes down and he looks back to see Batman.
"Impressive, you must be one of Team Light's new allies." He said.
"Yup, the names Eric." He said.
"It seems you only use the gun to disarm the enemy." Batman comments.
"I follow what my father does, he's Judge Dredd and he always taught me to follow the law." He said.
Batman nodded at what he said, then he thinks of something.
"Follow me." Batman said.
They went to the Bat cave and Eric comes out of his suit to look at the computer.
"This is a impressive, so what's this meeting about?" Eric asked.
"After the Joker came back to life, I can see a danger growing to the other worlds. So a new Batman must appear in case I can't do it." Batman said.
"Oh like Red Hood, your daughter or even Batman Beyond?" Eric asked.
"I'm looking at him." He stares at Eric.
"Me?! But we barely know each other." Eric said.
"From what I saw and heard, your team gave me details about you and the rest of your team, you have the chance to do something greater." Batman said.
Eric thinks about it and looks around and stares at batsuit on display.
"Well I would need to make my own armor." Eric said.
"Then let's get it done." Batman said.
The two started to work on a new armor as Eric scans his own suits to get an idea from them.
As they build it Eric was training with Batman as the two traded blows with Batman flipping him to the ground.
"Always be ready for the enemy." Batman told him.
"Okay." Eric grunted.
They went above a building as they looked around before they used a bat grapple to swing foward.
Then Eric was now carrying weights to push his limits making him grunt but he kept going.
Eric did sit ups as Batman watches him, then he climbs up a rock wall shirtless.
Batman was on the top watching Eric climb, he doesn't have a rope to test his will power.
(Insert why do we fall? Here)
"To survive the future battles, you must rise." Batman said.
Eric then loses his grip hitting the ground as he grunted, it wasn't that high where he fell off but it still hurt.
"Why do we fall?" Batman asked him.
Eric looks at him and wonders.
"So that we can learn to pick ourselves up. Rise through the fear and become the next in line." Batman told him.
Eric grunted as he stands back up, he starts to climb up again.
"I won't fall, I will... Rise up." Eric said.
He's mostly a normal human, with hacking skills so he's not the most impressive of his team. But he will grow to be they're equals.
Batman stares at him. "Rise."
Eric kept going, he goes to a edge and climbs up before bats came out making him duck.
He looks up to see another platform that has some distance with Batman on top as the bats fly out of a hole behind him.
The moon shines through it with Batman still looking at him.
Eric looks at the platform and looks down to see it would be a big fall.
He takes a deep breath and jumps foward, then he grabs on to it climbing up.
Eric then sees Batman staring at him and he nodded since he conquered death.
Batman helps him up since he did it. "You finished the task."
Eric smiles since he felt better after that.
They finished the armor as it comes out of a machine being the Justice armor. A black armor with red lines and a red bat symbol.
Eric puts it on and it felt like Batman now, Batman watches him and nodded.
"Your ready." He said.
"Thanks." Eric said.
They went out and stood on top of a building looking down at the city as many bats fly around.
Eric has now the legacy of Batman and will show every criminal to fear the night too.
Red Hood and Huntress joined them too as a new bat family member was born that day.
Note: Eric is now the one to carry Batman's legacy getting the justice armor to fit with his Anthem suits.
