Chapter Nine~ The Secret Revealed.

(Bruce's POV)


I found her just in time. Me and Alfred had tracked him down and I and the police had arrived there together. I got my friend Lieutenant Gordon to get him and his force to surround the place while I went inside. I got in there quietly and attacked his followers before sneaking in the room with all the victims in. There she was, locked quickly to chair and being threatened by The Joker. The Joker was about to hurt her when I hit him on the head and he fell to the ground. The victims were cheering but Eleanor was still in tears. I unlocked her and held her up as her knees were giving way, she was weak. I called the police in to arrest them all and free the victims while I took Eleanor with me. "W-Where are you taking m-me?" She wondered nervously through her tears. "Home." I told her in my disguised deep voice. She breathed with relief and I helped her into my Batmobile. "Um... thank you for rescuing me." She said weakly. I didn't reply but just carried on driving.


When we arrived home I helped into the house where Alfred was waiting for her. She ran into his arms crying and he kissed her cheek about a hundred times. "I'm so glad you're safe darling." He smiled. "W-Where's Bruce?" She asked sadly. Alfred let her go and gave her time to look at me again. She was finally looking at me so I took off my mask. Shock overcame her face. "It's you? Y-You're Batman? But, I don't understand?" She gasped. I took a step towards her to explain everything "After witnessing my parents' death, I wanted to avenge them and fight against crime. One day I fell down a well full of bats. I feared them so I decided to base my suit and weapons on them to make criminals fear me. I trained for battle and have been battling ever since." She nodded and sighed deeply. "I missed you so much Bruce, I thought I would never see you again. I love you." She admitted helplessly. Butterflies erupted in my stomach. I pulled her to my waist before kissing her on her lips. When we broke apart I rested my forehead on hers and said "I love you too Eleanor, I'm so glad I saved you. You complete me." She beamed and kissed me again before turning serious "So where do keep your fancy car and gadgets and stuff?" She questioned. I laughed before leading her to the lift to go to the Batcave.
