Billy opened his eyes again.
His final memories still echoed in his mind: the Watchtower strewn with corpses, Clark and Jonathan howling like beasts, the stench of blood, and the hideous grin on the face of the Bat, a figure he wasn't even sure could still be called Batman, a grin that looked just like the Joker's.
He could never let any of this happen again. Metropolis? The Watchtower? Clark probably hadn't finished work yet... Thinking this, he opened the door. On the other side of the threshold stood a pair of elegant, handmade leather shoes.
It was Bruce Wayne.
Bruce opened his eyes again.
He had just witnessed the destruction of the world. The sky had come crashing down, flames licked at the corpses, and the merciless queen and her iron cavalry left nothing alive in their wake. It had all started with that little adventure at Titans Academy, when the powerless Captain Marvel recklessly led his classmates straight into Hell.
His gaze dropped to the document in his hand... a DNA test report. The results confirmed that Billy Batson and Bruce Wayne were biologically related.
"Alfred, let's go." Batman always had a plan.
Billy Batson (Earth-22, the Dark Multiverse) vs. Bruce Wayne (my own take on Future State). Note: this is a versus pairing, not a romantic one.
A chaotic everyday life of father and son, with both convinced the other is responsible for the destruction of the world.
Please note:
1. Many original elements. Billy is a mix of the P and N versions (he's called Captain Marvel, not Shazam), while Bruce follows the N version. The author decides the timeline.
2. Read at your own risk if you dislike OOC. Read at your own risk if you dislike OOC. Read at your own risk if you dislike OOC.
3. The pairing is tentatively Cyborg. If I don't get that far, there will be no pairing.
4. I'll keep writing if I get more ideas.
