Prologue

Six months since Green Dragon: Year One

Rain poured from the sky as a man and a woman walked through a graveyard in rural Ireland. They needed no direction in order to find what they were looking for. They had done this many times before, however it was two years since they were last here.

They were both dressed in black suits and trench coats. The woman had a scarf around her neck to hide tattoos which adorned a vast percentage of her body. They both held up umbrellas to defend themselves from the freezing cold water which was falling freely from the sky.

Eventually they arrived at their destination. Five graves in a row, oldest to youngest. Five lives that were taken before their allotted time. Five lives which two individuals had promised to make right, even if it destroyed them.

Samuel and April MacEntee stood in front of the graves of their family. It had been close to eight years since their family had died and their lives had practically ended. It was a long time and both had changed dramatically. Samuel had laser eye surgery to fix his eyes so that he didn't need glasses anymore. April had took to wearing contact lenses permanently. April's hair was now much shorter and dyed red at the tips. Samuel's hair was now cut close to a buzz cut, only a centimetre longer than one. And both had vast amounts of tattoo's on their bodies.

But underneath all the physical changes their personalities and character had not changed. Samuel was still the kind, competitive, short-tempered, nerd that he was before. April was still the hard-headed, over-achieving, book-loving, perfectionist that she always was. They are the same underneath for their family's sake. Because that's how they remembered them.

Quietly Samuel and April move forward and placed the flowers they were carrying in front of each grave, pulling out any weeds which had sprouted up. Stepping back, Samuel broke the silence which had been present since the pair had arrived at the graveyard;

"So we're sorry we haven't been here in a while. We had some things to try and sort out." Samuel spoke, sparing a glance at his sister beside him. She continued on;

"Yeah just a bit of sibling rivalry." Which was the polite way of saying that were trying to kill each other. But April didn't mention that. "But we've made up and we're better now."

"Yeah much better. So latest news in my life is that I've met someone. Her name is Julia. She's a spitfire. I think you'd like her. I'm still living in Gotham, helping out there and working at my dream job."

"Well I've been moving around a lot, exploring the world. But I have just purchased a nice apartment in Paris. You guys would love it. You open the window and the first thing you see is the Eiffel tower. I just need to fix it up and furnish it. It's a little run-down. But I always loved a challenge."

April and Samuel continued to tell their family about their lives, as if they were sitting at the dinner table after a long time away. Samuel talked about his job and April talked about her travels and all that she had seen. Eventually they said everything they needed to say. Before leaving they made one last promise;

"We promise that we're going to make this right."

"Whatever it takes. The wrongs will be righted."

They turned and left. The rain stopped halfway to their cars so they folded up the umbrellas. Reaching their cars they placed them into the car's boots. A large suitcase was in Samuel's boot. Before they left, Samuel turned to his sister;

"I'm gonna go and do some recon on the target, make sure that nothing's changed for tonight."

"OK. I'm going to do a final gear and plan check. Make sure that everything we need is working properly."

"Got it. I'll see you tonight."

They got into their cars and drove off, going two separate ways.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

12 hours later

The messenger ran through the corridors. He had memorised the path to his destination years ago. If he had not then he would not be alive. His master had no patience for inept servants. So he moved with quick efficiency, the message also memorized for security purposes.

He reached his destination. The guards at the door spotted him and lowered their defences, opening the door to let him in. The messenger passed through the door and immediately got down on the ground in a bow. Sitting in front of him with his legs crossed and fingers entwined was his master, Ra's al Ghul.

"What news do you have?" Ra's asked the messenger.

"My lord, we have just heard from our Ireland base. It was attacked and destroyed four hours ago." The messenger answered. Ra's knotted his brow and his fingers tightened in frustration.

"Was the method similar to the previous two attacks in Italy and Portugal?"

"Yes my lord, initial contact was via an internal explosion. The attackers moved fast and efficiently, taking down most of the inhabitants of the base with physical attacks. The wounds included blunt force trauma, slashes, stab wounds and burns. As well as that all were infected with an airborne pathogen derived from Doctor Crane's fear gas. It caused the men to experience severe hallucinations before rendering them unconscious. It also caused the men to have no recollection of the attack or the attackers. Once all the men were dispatched, all information was taken from the computers, before being destroyed along with all the weapons. The result was a destroyed base but all men were left alive. However the attackers left a message this time."

"What is the message?"

"It was written in the Irish language. Translated it says 'We are your greatest mistakes. We are your destruction.'" Ra's became even more unsettled. He had no idea who was attacking him as he had so many enemies. He hated not knowing what was attacking him. He made it his business to know everything. Reaching a decision he stood up. The messenger, who had raised his head to speak, ducked it down again as Ra's spoke;

"Alert all bases in Europe. Tell them to be at maximum security level. Also alert every bounty hunter and mercenary that there will be a substantial reward for information on those attacking my organisation and a greater one for those who kill or capture them. Understood?"

"Perfectly my lord. I will make it so." The messenger got up and quickly left, leaving Ra's in his throne room to further think of who is attacking him. The smallest drop of fear in his mind.

Next Chapter: The new normal

A/N So what did you think? If you didn't see it, this story is the war with Ra's al Ghul. Also Red Phoenix is a primary protagonist here as well. Also I have a little confession to make. In the last story I called Green Dragon's weapons mars hammers but in actual fact they are known as meteor hammers. Just a heads up. Also I'm taking inspiration from the first 12 issues of Red Robin so expect some similarities. It's a great series and I suggest reading it.
