Rise Above the Storm

AN: Hello and welcome to Rise Above the Storm. This is the sequel to Before the Storm. If you hadn't read that one first, then stop right here and go read it! Now like Before the Storm this story will be posted every Saturday. Also, I just wanted to point out that I made a little mistake. Looking back now, I notice I put that Bruce stayed in the west wing, but in the movie he stayed in the east. So in this story it's the west, so I don't have to go back and change it all. Also some of the things on here like some lines from the movie may be a little different, because I'm going by a script that I have found. So now sit back, and enjoy!

And a shout out to @LilBeanNik for making this cover for my story. I recommend reading some of the stories she has written. They are pretty good :D     

In the last two weeks, Gotham has been quiet, beside a few muggings, and robberies. At night I lived the life of the crime fighting vigilant Batgirl, during the day I lived the life of Lily Smith future restaurant owner who started working at the local diner, Molly Fries and Burger, so I could get use to serving and cooking for people. At my breaks I meet with my best friend who I have grown to love, but is to afraid to tell him my feelings because of Batgirl.

We would go out once a week and just hang out, or watch the latest cool movie that came out in theaters, and I was positive he was very close of asking me a question I did not know what to answer it with. Since the death of the Penguin I have grown stronger and more agile, from taking a dance and a self-defense class on my days off. Mr. Fox has even updated my suit, making it more easier for me to move in, but it still had that damn v cut in it.

While on patrol at night, I've hardly been bothered by the police, it seems that they know I'm here to protect them, but I did have the occasional trouble from Ross. He never did like it when I had left him and John that night of the two police cars being destroyed.

"Lily, could you fix a tray for Master Bruce?" Papa asked me as he helped some of the staff that was hired for the party that was held in Harvey Dent honor.

I nodded my head and went to fix it. When I was finish Papa ordered one of the waitresses to take Bruce his meal.

"You know I could had took it up to him" I told Papa as he went to check something.

"I know, but I need you to help keep an eye on the cooks to make sure they are cooking the food correctly" He said and walked off.

I let out a sigh and walked around to make sure the chefs were cooking the food correctly. Sometimes I think John's job was better than mine. He get's to sit in his car and watch the area to make sure nothing crashes the party.

Checking around to see that everyone was busy and doing their job. I left the kitchen and headed for to the front door, but stopped and quickly turned back when I saw Papa talking to a woman. I snuck out the back and walked in the grass in the black heels I was forced to wear with the stupid black dress like all the other women.

As I walked through the party a man smacked me on the butt. I stopped and turned quickly glaring at him.

"Where's the fire, hot stuff?" He asked and I had to control everything in me not to smack him in the face.

"Touch me again, and that hand will be shoved so far up your" Before I could finish the man quickly walked away in fear.

I rolled my eyes as I head for the gates where John was sitting in his car. I quietly walked to the side he was in and saw that he was asleep. I smiled mischievously to myself as I set a bag of food I had packed for him on the top of the car. I then banged on the window quickly causing John to jump awake and turned to me quickly with wide eyes. I laughed as he got out of his car.
