Title: The Last Enemy
Author: D.L.SchizoAuthoress
Rating: R
Spoilers: "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" tie-in comics (issue #6) with Golden Age flavoring
Warnings: character death; language; slightly bizarre backstory/headcanon being employed; m/m pairing
Prompt/Fill: None! This is totally for me!
Word Count: 1985
Summary: How Vigilante and Shining Knight became people Kid Eternity could call upon...
Note:
1. Many of the characters mentioned in this story are public domain heroes, and not all of them were published by or acquired by DC Comics. They are used mostly to avoid any conflict with BTBAB canon that might arise from using more well-known Golden Age characters.
2. I know, this sort of contradicts Vigilante's 3-minute appearance in the opening of "Night of the Batmen!", but that contradicts his comics appearance (and besides I had a few quibbles with his portrayal). I'll explain him later.

Word of the Day: adamantine, adjective:
1. Utterly unyielding or firm in attitude or opinion.
2. Too hard to cut, break, or pierce.
3. Like a diamond in luster.
