Chapter 3 【 Batman】

𝐸𝒶𝓇𝓁𝒾𝑒𝓇........

Batman was currently racing in the Bat-mobile heading to one of the many headquarters of A.R.G.U.S. Amanda Waller called about an hour ago and said she needed to speak to him. He was annoyed; she could have simply sent an email or told him over the phone. After all, she knows his secret identity so that wouldn't be a difficult task. But she insisted he came in person. She said it would be much more appropriate if the issue was discussed in person. As soon as he reached the facility, a couple of guards rushed to help him, but Batman brushed them off, walking straight to her office. He has been here more times than he would've liked, the location of Amanda's office was burned into his memory. When Batman reached the door, he knocked and heard the okay to go in. He was only met by Amanda who was currently shuffling through papers.

"Hello Batman, glad you could make it," she says, still going through the papers.

"What do you want, Waller?" Batman said in his usual curt tone.

"Please, take a seat." she gestured to him to sit.

Batman ignored her.

"I have no time for child's play. Talk.

Amanda let out a sigh and got up walking towards Batman.

" I need your help handling this.....problem," she says handing him a file.

He began to scan through it and noticed it was about a girl by the name y/f/n.

" This is my niece. Not by blood, but I've known her since she was a child and she is everything to me. Her parents were scientists here and they were amazing at their jobs. When she was just eight her parents died in a car crash and she was orphaned. It was an assassination by some of our enemies. Y/n was sent to live with her real Aunt and Uncle, however, the two didn't have the best financial situation. So I decided to pay for everything the girl needed. Education, with health insurance, you name it ."

Batman continued to look through the file with her basic information. She is 22 now, was born in Blüdhaven, and moved to Gotham three years ago. He noticed that she was an accountant at his company. One particular thing caught his eye under abilities it had the sanguine (blood) disease also known as poison blood.

"Is she a meta-human?" Batman asked looking up at her.

"You could say that. When y/n was six, her parents injected her with the disease, along with other participants, all varying in ages"

"Her own parents injected her with a disease?" Batman interrupted.

"Yes, but for a valid reason. During that time A.R.G.U.S was searching for a way to kill meta-humans fast and easy. Mr. And Mrs. y/l/n had created a parasite to inject them with the disease and when it was tested it worked better than expected, however, this is still a parasite and it needs a host to reproduce. Each host we injected instantly died once injected with the disease. They decided to try a new approach and went for their daughter and surprisingly she was immune. So now the girl was a walking superhuman killing weapon. If one drop of her blood comes in contact with any naked part of the body you'll instantly die. Her parents knew it was dangerous for her to keep it so they extracted safe amount blood for later use and created a cure and it worked for the time being." Amanda paused.

"What do you mean for the time being?" Batman was now very interested.

"After her parents were killed, I made an agreement with her Aunt and Uncle. Once a month they'd take the girl to the hospital we bought, and there we ran blood tests on her to see if the disease was growing back luckily for years it always came back negative. Unfortunately this time the test came back positive. The disease. It's back." Amanda walked over to Batman.

"How is that possible?" Batman asked.

"This disease is almost like cancer. You can't just kill off all the cells, but you can slow them down by killing most of them. That's what the cure did, but now the disease is back and it's stronger. It's mutated." Amanda let out a sigh.

"I'm now asking this favor to Bruce Wayne rather than Batman. I want you to supervise her over the course of 6 months. By then we will have a cure and she'll be out of your hair." she said with a small smile.

"No." Batman casually says and began to walk towards the door.

"Mr. Wayne!" Amanda's voice was now laced with anger.

"I'm not a babysitter, Waller."

"Have you forgotten all the things A.R.G.U.S has done for you? All the things I've done for you? I know most of your secrets Mr. Wayne and I am not afraid to let them out."

Batman paused. He knew Amanda long enough to know she doesn't bluff. He turned around and faced her.

"And why can't she stay here?" He asks.

Amanda folded her arms.

"A.R.G.U.S is like a prison for meta-humans. Harley Quinn herself stayed here. Y/n didn't commit a crime so it is not fair for her to stay here like a criminal. I don't want to put y/n's life on pause because of a mistake her parents made. Sadly there is a 50% chance". Amanda pauses

Batman could see the sadness in her eyes.

"The new cure we are making could kill her or kill off the disease for who knows how long, so please Mr. Wayne-"

"Fine" Batman finally accepted. He knew that Amanda wasn't one to ask for something, let alone beg, so he knew that this favor meant a lot to her. Besides, y/n was around Damian's age, so if the tables were turned he'd want someone to do the same.
Amanda then cleared her throat and brushed her clothes, feeling slightly embarrassed that she let her emotions get the best of her.

"I'll call her now to explain everything and you can just take her home," she said while picking up a phone

"Now? I only heard about her today."

Amanda placed the phone to her ear, the number already dialing.

"Time is an illusion, Mr. Wayne"

Batman lowly growled and walked to the door and just hopped y/n wasn't anything like Amanda.
