[Western Crossover] A World Where Only the Heroine Gets Hurt

[A scheming spy heroine × a fledgling big bat]

(The bat's characterization draws on the 1992 Batman animated series and The Batman.)

-

Claire, who transmigrated from Injustice, has somehow ended up with PTSD about Superman.

Her first reaction to seeing the God of Man was to pull out a gun and shoot. Her first reaction to seeing the Dark Knight was to want to sleep with him.

Claire: No, I'm just an utterly ordinary fangirl, that's all.

Even so, she's always been a damn good mercenary, skilled at everything from quick-scoping to sneaking around.

She's also suspicious, calculating, and always ready to finish the job.

The utterly ridiculous incident where she schemed against everyone, only to get herself caught up in the end, still had something to do with Batman.

Claire: What? How can that bat compare to a mere mortal like me? Totally normal, totally normal.

But why does the me in this world also have a Hydra identity?

Three years, then another three years. Do you know what I've been through, S.H.I.E.L.D.?

Brief introduction:

As a Hydra agent, Claire not only has to work overtime at night as an assassin for the organization, but also has to work days at the Daily Planet as a gossip reporter.

The first person she offended was Stark. The second person she was paid to offend was Wayne. The third was Kent, the new intern at her company.

CP: Bruce

The heroine is neutral and occasionally chaotic evil. If you don't like that, don't read. Check the author's notes for specific content warnings.

Strong-willed all her life, but unfortunately she's got Injustice PTSD.

----Author's Note----

The timeline is a mess, and everything is a headcanon. I've given up on keeping track of the timeline and am just winging it.

Please, no canon sticklers. The author is sensitive and afraid of being criticized.

Addendum: The timeline is set at the very beginning of everyone's superhero careers. Everyone's ages and timelines have been shifted to fit the plot.

Blurb:

[1]

Some say she is an evil witch who claims innocent lives at midnight. Others say she is a pitiable girl who has never had a life of her own. Still others say she is a rose growing in the shade, blooming only for the one who shelters her.

The slender detective let the woman take his arm. In the dead of night, he woke a cameraman who had long since gone to bed, and on Christmas Eve, he took a very special photograph.

That photograph is now on the second floor of the Sherlock Holmes Museum on Baker Street in London, England.

[2]

Sherlock Holmes prided himself on using his powers of deduction to see through almost anyone. Yet after he deduced his female neighbor's profession, she shut the door in his face.

It seemed his deduction had been wrong.

His puzzlement only made him more curious: what kind of person was this mysterious female neighbor?

[3]

London at night is shrouded in mystery. Have you ever seen a ghostly figure flash past your window in the dead of night?

Crime, death, and the unknown surround you. Is there anyone willing to cut through the fog and catch the culprit?

"Come home with me, my dear Catherine." A voice repeated itself through the fog.

[Standard Blurb]

++++Catherine Baker was bitten by Dracula in Romania in the early nineteenth century. She later fled to England and settled in London. By day, she sleeps in her bedroom with the curtains drawn. By night, she goes out in search of suitable "desserts."

++++You need an invitation to enter a home, and you have to avoid verbena. Being a vampire isn't easy. Fortunately, Dracula disappeared long ago, and as long as she keeps a low profile, she can avoid all trouble.

++++But when she first meets Sherlock Holmes, the slender detective seems to see right through her disguise.

Follows the original works, with a partially fictionalized setting.

Set in the late nineteenth to early twentieth century.

Works referenced: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Dracula.

Vampire heroine × Sherlock Holmes as depicted in the original works.

Dracula is the second male lead. His story takes place around ten years before the events of the original Dracula. You don't need to have read it to enjoy this story.
