Bruce looks back toward the metal grating. In front of them, in a small clearing, is a deep, dark hole. It reaches far into the ground, stretching out beneath their feet in a scattered web of caves. Once, the open maw of the cave had been uncovered, but now it has been sealed off with thick iron bars that criss-cross over themselves to block it completely. Ten years ago, a seventeen-year-old Bruce Wayne had fallen to his death in it while attempting to map the caves.

Clark looks down into the darkness. He can see the jagged rocks and stalactites that jut up from the rock. A cloud of bats swirl in one of the bigger caverns, and Clark can’t help but shiver at the thought of Bruce down there, alone and dying slowly in the darkness.

But he had died.

And now his ghost sits in front of him, destined to haunt the grounds of his ancestral home until whatever is tethering him to this plane of existence is resolved.

Super sight and super hearing aren’t the only senses heightened by Kryptonian physiology- aka the one where Clark can see ghosts.

Something shifted in Bruce. It wasn’t an amazing burst of colours, nor was it handwriting scarring its way onto his arm. No, it was a warm feeling, like the feeling you get after coming home from a long journey, or the feeling of relief and satisfaction you get from slotting the last piece of a large jigsaw puzzle into place.

Clark looked slightly flushed, his eyes were wide and his cheeks rosy as she stared back at Bruce. “Did you feel that too?” he asked.

“Yes. I…we…” Bruce trailed off, unsure of what to say.

“Bruce we just formed a soulmate bond.”

Clark and Bruce form a romantic soulmate bond. They mistake it for a platonic bond and then proceed to pine over each other.

Captain Kent sat in one of the chairs, setting up the chessboard for play. “Come in, come in!” He gestured to the chair opposite him. “Take a seat.”

Bruce did as instructed. Clark finished setting up the board and then moved a white pawn. “The tribbles are becoming a real problem. I was on the bridge earlier and they were everywhere. There was even one in my command chair.”

Bruce raised an eyebrow and silently moved his own pawn.

“I didn’t see it before I sat down.” Clark looked slightly guilty. “It didn’t make it.”

Captain Kent and Commander Wayne must work together to solve the tribble problem that threatens to derail their mission.

“Bruce.”

Batman smiled, happy to play the game. “Tut tut tut. What have I said about names in the field?” He sauntered around the table, circling like a vulture. “That’s not very professional now, is it? Clark.”

“What have you done? Why are you doing this?”

“So many questions. So many demands.” Batman stopped his circling to trail a clawed finger over the restraint around Superman’s left wrist. “Has my little kryptonite trick really riled you up that much?”

——

A villainous Batman and a heroic Superman continue to deny their true feelings for one another.

“Superman, come in,” Wally’s voice came over the comm in Clark’s ear. “We have a…uh…situation.”

“Coming,” he replied, he turned in the air and sped back to the rest of the Justice League. They were standing in a tight circle with their backs to him.

He touched down on the ground as Diana turned to face him. “There has been an incident involving Batman,” she said.

The cold grip of fear tightened itself around Clark’s heart. What had happened? If Klarion had harmed Bruce, he would hunt the boy down and twist his head until—

“He got turned into a dog!” Flash exclaimed, looking way too happy at the proclamation.

Bruce gets turned into a dog and Clark has to deal with it.

“What will you do about it if he does?”

Superbat Week 2020

Day 7 - First Kiss

(Making use of Batman vs Superman, Justice League and Batman comics - Earth-2.)

Excuse me?” Clark stared at the reporter as if she had kryptonite in her hands.

“Let me repeat again,” Vicky Vale smiled like a shark scenting blood, “When’s your first kiss, Superman?”

“Ahh...that’s...uhmm…” Clark stuttered, mind frantic.

It wasn’t embarrassment that had him all tongue-tied. It was just that he couldn’t remember. There were so many gaps in his memory – the side effect of returning from the dead. And even though he could only remember recent events well, those from the past – his childhood, his youth – he only had snippets of them, jumbled and not in chronological order.

So to be honest, Clark truly had no idea and he didn’t want to lie. The idea of giving fake information just didn’t sit well with him, especially since he was a journalist too.

“Nine.”

The out-of-the-blue answer had both Clark and Vicki staring at Batman in surprise.

“Did you just...”

“Next question, please,” Batman cut Vicki off and the other reporters immediately clamoured to be heard, drowning out her attempt to pursue the matter.

Clark heaved a sigh of relief as the press conference shifted back to its main focus – explaining the Justice League to a world that was ambivalent towards them. Their battle against Steppenwolf had brought about much awe and respect. But it threw up tons of conspiracy theories as well, and Bruce thought it best to address the issue as quick as possible. Hence, the press conference, but with only Batman and Superman in attendance so as not to ‘scare the masses’.

Though Clark was much relieved, he couldn’t help but cast curious glances at Bruce.

What does he mean by nine? Is Bruce withholding information again? Clark was gripped by an anxious uneasiness, feeling as if he had forgotten something important.

When the conference ended, Superman waylaid Batman before he could slip away.

“B, can you...”

“If you can’t remember, there’s no point in telling.”

Bruce brushed him off and attempted to walk away. But Superman grabbed his arm instead, stalling him.

“Shouldn’t you be telling me, precisely because I can’t remember,” Clark whispered fiercely, not wanting to draw attention from the backstage crew that were dismantling the stage.

Instead of a reply, Bruce forcefully wrenched his arm out of Clark’s grasp, knowing that Superman would let go to avoid making a scene. With a swish of his cape, he stalked off, leaving Clark gritting his teeth.

That night, Clark had a dream.

He was back in Smallville, among swaying wheat and twinkling dots decorated the night skies. Besides him was a boy, foggy and indistinct. They were talking when all of a sudden, there was a loud crack and Clark yelped, in surprise rather than pain.

“Why?”

He stared at the boy who had just whacked him with a branch picked from the ground.

“Why did you hide it? You’re stronger than you let on. Stronger than anybody.”

And Clark couldn’t breath, heart constricting in fear. Had he been found out?

The dream shifted, slipping into a scene with him standing by a black limousine. The boy, his eyes now distinct, blue as the ocean waves, was bidding him goodbye. Clark was devastated, feeling as if he had made a dear friend but now they must part. Impulsively, he pressed his lips against the boy’s, clumsy and butting their teeth together. There were chuckles in the background but Clark only had eyes for the boy who was gaping in shock.

“Please don’t forget me. I will remember you so please, remember me.”

Clark woke with a start and was amazed to find tears wetting the corner of his eyes.

Is this just a dream or a piece of memory?

Clark had no idea.

That same night, very much later, at the Lake House.

Bruce pulled open a drawer and drew out a worn baseball. He squeezed it tight, pain, sharp and anguished, halting his breath and breaking his heart.

He had forgotten so how could he tell.

Sliding the glass door open, he stepped out onto the balcony and stared at the lake, still and dark beneath a new moon. Raising a hand, he threw it hard, intending to sink the ball into the deepest depth available.

However, someone caught it instead.

“What’s this?” Clark muttered, rolling the ball in his palm.

And Bruce yelled.

“Give it back, damn it!”

Clark narrowed his eyes at the agitated man who was turning pale at the sight of him. He had come because he couldn’t go back to sleep, and it seemed that he had come at the most opportune moment.

“You’re hiding again, aren’t you?” Clark clutched the ball, extremely annoyed, “And I’m not leaving until you tell me the truth.”

(For Clark's dream, I borrowed some of the dialogue from the comic. You can read it here.

And this is the last of the lot for Superbat Week 2029. Thanks for reading them and the next to tackle will be Writer's Month, starting today as well.)

Superbat Week 2020

Day 3 Prompt - Arguing

Summary:

It was their night off and Clark was looking forward to spending time with Bruce. Unfortunately, Bruce had something else in mind - his recent fixation on gaming getting in the way. So Clark decided to do something about it, resulting in a totally different game being played - one that required a chain and some sensitive technology.

(As there's some mild sexual content in the story (nothing explicit), I've posted it on AO3 instead.)

Read on AO3.
