[3 days later] [Training ground]

It's been three days since Pamela started mastering her power. She was slowly getting better. She could control it to some extent but was still having trouble controlling it on a larger scale. She couldn't use her power for hours without feeling tired and drained. In some instances, her alternate ego took over and tried to seduce Bruce in front of Selina and Diana.

Well, Selina at first didn't feel anything since she knew it was a side effect of her power, but on the third day, she couldn't control her jealousy. Diana noticed her expression, "You like him?" She whispered in Selina's ear.

"What?!" Selina looked at her as if she had two heads. Diana gave her a look and tilted her head toward Bruce. She blushed hard when she realized who Diana was talking about. "Yup!" Selina replied. "Look, it's just..." She sighed. She felt a weird feeling clenching her heart, "Bruce and I, we... We love each other. But..."

"But what?" Diana asked her with a smile. She liked seeing the two together and could tell they loved each other. But their chemistry and emotions always made her wonder what was stopping them from being together.

Selina sighed.

"I just don't want to get in his way. It's not that I can't go there and tell them directly because trust me, I am so fucking jealous and angry that I want to punch that green face of hers. But, it's not my place... I... I have a promise to fulfill, a debt to pay... To live for him, to die for him. It's an oath that I took the day he saved me from the streets and reunited with my sister. Thanks to him I learned what a family is. Maggie is living a life I always wanted for her..."

She leaned on the railing with a bitter smile, and continued, "That's what Bruce did to me... He opened a new chapter in my life, gave me a chance to start fresh and find my roots. Before, my world only consisted of stealing and fighting for survival. I didn't believe that there could be something else, that someone could take me out of the shadows. But he showed me another world. And... And I'd do anything for him. My body, soul, and my very existence belong to him... That's why I will accept anything he wants as long as he doesn't forget about me..."

She paused for a moment, trying to arrange her emotions, "But, the thought of her being near him... It's killing me! I just... I don't know how to explain this to him. What do you think? Is it weird?"

"Well, I'm not an expert in the romance department, but from what I've gathered, I'd say Pamela is pretty attracted to Bruce, but look at him. He is trying to keep his distance as much as he can, even though I could see how she's affecting him. Bruce isn't the type of guy who would willingly cheat, especially on someone he cares about..."

Selina nodded, "You're right! He has a lot of self-control. But I don't want him to hold back just because of me."

"Then why don't you two sit down and have a chat? Tell him what you feel and I am pretty sure he will tell you what he feels. Considering he is from another universe, he must have someone he loves or a few girlfriends... You know how cool he is, all heroic and stuff. And to be honest, I..." Diana stopped in the middle of her sentence.

"You... What?" Selina asked with a hint of amusement in her voice. Diana couldn't help but look confused.

"You want to keep going?" Bruce asked Pamela as he noticed her huffing in exhaustion. The training ground was filled with plants, thorns, and blooming flowers.

"How the hell did you do it?" She asked as she wiped the sweat off her forehead with her left arm. "Facing me without your suit or any gadgets... With just that katana and your physical prowess..." She looked impressed.

"Years of nonstop training and Elana beating my ass and almost killing me!" He laughed. "It's nothing personal, though." He told her before cracking his neck. "Besides, you're getting stronger, I doubt I will be able to hold my own against you in a couple of years without my gadgets."

"Years, huh?" She smiled shaking her head, "So confident in yourself..."

"Yup!" He pointed the katana toward her, "Without confidence, one cannot achieve anything. It's like the saying 'Believe in yourself and your power and aim for your dreams'. Nothing in the world can stop you unless you stop yourself..."

She summoned a giant venus fly trap behind her and grinned, "Big words..."

Slice!

All it took for Bruce was a fraction of a second to slice the venus fly trap in half before it could do anything. His body reacted before his mind registered the threat, just like how he trained.

"I am glad to see you are up for another round," He smiled at her and assumed his stance, "After all, no matter who your enemy is, they will always aim to strike at your weakest moment. That is what this is. A test. Keep fighting and do not underestimate your enemy. Shall you begin the finale..."

"Fuck!" Pamela transformed into Ivy, "Let's dance, sweetheart."
