Jason's vision glided over to the small lithe heroine next to him. Studying her in silent reverence, he noted perfectly her small form was silhouetted by the lights of the city below them, and how the few strands of dark hair that had come loose from the high ponytail danced hypnotically across her porcelain skin in the light wind. The mask that hid stunning eyes complimented her soft features wondrously. And Jason could help but admire how well her costume fit her, or how nicely her utility belt rested on her hips, accenting the curves.

Even now, perched on the ledge of Gotham's clock tower, clad in leather, Kevlar, spandex, and mask; covered in dirt and grime from a long patrol, he still thought she was the most beautiful creature he had ever seen. The most beautiful and the bravest.

Of the two of them, Jason knew it was she who was the true hero. And not for the first time, he wondered who had really saved who?

It had been a long hard road for both of them, but they had traveled it together. Hand and hand they had walked the difficult path side by side. And standing by each other they had faced the many challenges and roadblocks along the way. No matter what happened, they never abandoned their shared struggle or the bond that had formed between them.

'It was worth it,' Jason smiled behind his helmet as he thought of the new life they had found together.

The pair's comms went off, breaking the comfortable silence that had surrounded them and a familiar voice sounded in their ears. "Come in, Red Hood. Do you read me?" it asked.

Jason pressed the comm in his helmet to reply, glancing at the woman next to him to see if she had heard the voice as well. A small nod was her response, never leaving her vigil of the buildings they were positioned above. "Yeah, we read you, Nightwing."

Nightwing's voice came to life in the comms again. "We just received a report. Looks like Poison Ivy's up to something at the old greenhouses just outside of the city. Need you to go check it out; I'll meet you there," he informed them.

Jason stood, his partner following. "We're on it. Red Hood and Jade Dragon out." He ended the call.

"Time to go?" the masked female asked from behind him. Her voice was smooth and mysterious, but held a hidden ferocity that warned against underestimating her.

He turned back to her. There was a small smile playing at the corners of her painted lips. "Yeah," he answered.

The woman's smile grew into a smirk. Stepping to the edge, she vaulted off it, dropping gracefully down towards the city below before launching a grappling line and swinging to a near by roof.

Jason chuckled, following after the woman who was both his partner on the job, and the love of his life. And right then, in that moment, he felt like the luckiest guy in the world.
