She wiped the sword to her left connecting her blade to the other assassin's blade. It created a loud clash. But Selina quickly brought her sword up seeing how he reacted she kicked her leg up and kicked his stomach pushing him away and onto the floor. She quickly turned around to the other assassin that she sent to crash onto a wall. He came toward her aiming for her side but she twirled away and slashed his back. Another came one that finally got off the floor from when she punched his jaw. The other she sent to the floor mere moments ago got back up and both attacked at the same time. She switched from attacking one blade to the other, making one go back a little to attack the other. She twisted and turned, slashed and stabbed, kicked and punched when given the perfect moment. As the end finally came by she stood, breathing heavily leaning on her sword as the assassin got back up. She fought ten of them. Some came after another; others were at the same time. She had slight bruises and cuts but nothing to major against ten men. She looked up seeing a dark figure watching her. She thought it was Ra'd but it wasn't, it was someone who had such an interest to her, the Bat. She eyed him down as he looked down at her. Her teeth showed in gritted anger, she wanted to be alone, she didn't want to be distracted by those blue eyes.

She looked at him longer as all the assassins finally get back up regaining their consciousness. "You really like being a creeper, stalking me around this castle don't you?"

He just continued to look at her striking bright green eyes, "Not stalking you, just wanting to know more about you."

"Hmm, I do believe you should be doing that with Talia otherwise she'll get jealous that you're taking an interest in me," she gave him a fun teasing smile. He smiled as he saw how beautiful she was when she showed a true side of herself. He missed the smile of Selina Kyle, her teasing cleverness, and he missed her.

"You are just an interesting mystery."

"I'm a mystery? And you are the detective?" she smiled and gave a small laugh, "May I ask how I'm a mystery?"

"You fight with such passion yet I know when you kill you feel guilt. Why would a killer show such guilt when she has done this time and time again? In addition, how is it you have more respect than the daughters of Ra's, when you are a woman who came here at the age of ten while they were trained when they were younger and were raised here knowing these assassins?"

She narrowed her brows looking at him from above. How did he know how old she was when she came here? "I wouldn't know detective, maybe you should find evidence of how that came to be." She stared at him longer looking at his eyes. "What is your real name Bat?"

Bruce looked down at her, smiled, then winked and then walked away. She raised her eyebrow looked back at the assassins walking out of the room. She walked out along with them. She got to her room and saw Ra'd laying on her bed, with his arms folded behind his head. "Don't you have your own to lay upon?"

"Mmm but I enjoy being in this one, of course with company."

"I'm sure you would." She placed her weapon down on the dresser top, and stripped off her armor. She then took off her shirt leaving her bra on and walked towards Ra'd swaying her hips. She crawled on top and kissed his lips. He pulled his arms out from behind but she held his wrists with her smaller softer hands. She brought the kiss to be more passionate but stopped abruptly pulling her lips from his, causing him to groan. "Can you do me a favor?"

"Anything." His eyes were still closed as her lips hovered just above his own.

"Find more about the one you call the Bat." He eyes widened, and she sat up letting go of his wrists as he moved up as well.

"What believe he well effect the plan somehow?"

"Well he could give us trouble. He seems to have a lot of interest in me, he's been getting close to Ra's and Ra's seems to be loving him and how well he progressed. His moves have become better and it looks as if he has trained with us just as long as I have. How is that possible? Furthermore, he has gotten close to Talia. I thought he may have not been someone to worry about because he was nobody and seemed weak, and didn't know he was watching me so closely. I want to learn why is he here, why he is interested I me because if he learns about us killing Ra's, I'll be dead in the middle of the night, never knowing when the day will come."

"Hush, you worry too much," he brushed strands of her hair out of her face and put them behind her ear, "I will do as you say but as off right now," he kissed her lips passionately and brought her down with him.


She pulled on a robe and starred out to the dark night sky covered with clouds showing no stars and only showing pieces of the moon. Reminded her exactly of Gotham, dark and covered the sky with smoke with only parts of the moon shinning down on the earth. Why do I miss a place that had just as many problems as this one? Why couldn't I end up somewhere better where I wouldn't have to kill or be kill, where I be safe and enjoy life? As her eyes looked up a small bright light illuminated from the village at the bottom left of her vision. Her eyes looked down and saw a small fire starting to burn buildings. She looked at Ra'd content and sleeping peacefully, she grabbed her clothes and quickly left the rm. She ran down the hall pulling on her hood and her cloth to cover her mouth.


Bruce who slept alone and away from Talia was wondering about Selina. Wondering what her life must have been like. She had scars on her back and two tattoos that seemed to be more burned on them with colorful ink on a needle. He wanted her to remember him but would she. Does she even remember where or who she took the box from? Would she even care for me? His eyes wondered around in the dark room. He tried to close his eyes but then he heard the high pitch scream from a close distance. He looked to his window and saw a village burning but also a figure helping people escape out of buildings. But he also saw a herd of people on horses with carriages.


She was told to kill the rapist, the murder, the kidnapper, the crime lord, anyone who gets in the way of a better tomorrow. Of a cleansed world.

She was never told to protect or save the innocent. But she was never told not to save the innocent. Ra's told her the innocent are weak and minor sacrifices that must be made. But world would there be if everyone was cleansed? The innocent are the ones she is willing to protect, willing to save, willing to disobey Ra's for. The innocent are what make her strive to take over Ra's and make new plans for the League of Assassins. Assassins will no longer leave a trail of defenseless lives behind.

She ran into a building finding a child in a corner. She picked him up and held him tightly to her chest as she looked back into the entrance of where she entered being closed off. She looked around and found a window. She ran and covered the child's head from the breaking glass and ducked down her head.

She landed on the ground and looked up at the building seeing it fall down slightly. She ran to the where everyone was and found the mother of the child in her arms.

"Is everyone out?" Selina asked in their native tongue.

"Yes, thank you." The middle aged woman replied with tears streaming down her face.

"I know this must be hard but all of you must leave to the nearest village. Do you know how this started though?"

The woman shook her head.

Selina grimaced and looked at the floor. There were footprints of horse's hooves. These people only had donkeys and most died because of the fire. Selina looked to the woman and the child as well as everyone in the village who huddled together in the cool night air. "They took our daughters!" So many women cried, and Selina couldn't help but remember of the case Jim Gordon had with children in the streets including he being taken.

She nodded and ran in the direction of the hooves. She followed the hooves to another village. But no building was on fire. She knocked on a door but no one answered. She went to another building and looked through the window. Lights where on but no one answered. She saw horses but that's not where the trail went. The trail continued through the village. She jumped onto a black gypsy horse and followed the trail some more. She was the horse bare back but that didn't bother her. What itched what struck at her more was that there were people taking children away from their homes. And they will get what they deserve.


Bruce followed the herd to an old city that seemed abandoned. They took the girls into some building but he saw there were over twenty men. He saw men with guns, men with blades., and men taking young girls into a buidling drugging them.

He heard more hooves but not as many as before. He looked out beyond somewhere in the horizon where the sun was starting to rise there was a horse running towards the clan of people. The horse came closer, he kept turning his head to people back to the horse curious if there was another child taken but as the horse ran through the streets, no one was on it. Suddenly he was grabbed and punched in the face.


"Where are the girl-" She saw his crystal blue eyes. "Detective?" She groaned and rolled her eyes. "What are you doing here?" She snarled through her black cloth.

Bruce rubbed the side of his face. "I followed these men he after they burned down a village." She growled and looked to the building. "They are drugging the girls, and putting them in somewhere in the building."

Selina looked at Bruce, "I have no time to watch your pathetic ass so stay here." She jumped down and immediately through blades at men's throats. Man after man guarding the area where taken down.


No one was alive. All those men died. Society was to do that. Justice was to determine whether a man should die or live. Men are suppose to get a trail a fair trial.

Bruce watched as Selina killed the guards and then entered through a window. He heard gun shots but he knew the only blood being spread where the men pulling the triggers by Selina's hand. No its Ra's! Ra's took her and made her this way! Or did he? He wanted it to be the first thing but he only saw the ladder. Selina choosing this path.


She cut throats, twisted necks, and suffocatedmen. She found girl after girl tied to a bed, drugged, nearly beaten and almost raped. She saved them.

"Who the hell are you?" It was spoken in a slang tongue but Selina understood. He had a gun pointed at her but she acted quick disabling him.

"Where is your boss?" He didn't speak. "You have over two hundred more bones to break, so speak now and you'll die quickly for what you have done."

She saw the fear, and he finally spoke, "He's… He's on his way to some clients in Riyadh."

She stabbed his heart. She grabbed some girls helping them stand and walk out as she saw the Detective help some as well.

"Why did you kill them?" He sounded angry and she was confused.

"You're telling me you would rather have them live and do this to more girls? Have them burn down more villages? Have them hurt more of the innocent?"

"You can't decide their fate! These men deserve trails and se what they get."

"You know what they get? To escape and continue hurting others. No matter how many times you put a murderer, a rapist, a kidnapper, a physco in jail, they a will always be that and continue to do that! Justice will do nothing but allow them back on the streets to harm others. Now if you don't mind I have to find the guy behind this all." Selina jumped onto a horse but he grabbed her arm.

"I'm coming with you. The girls will be fine here." He jumped onto a horse as well.


It wasn't long until they came across a small shelter with more men in guard. Again Selina killed them while he was told to sit back. But he followed behind her as she finally found the man watching explicit TV and smoking a cigar with his two body guards. She sliced ones neck and stabbed the blade through the other. The big brave man who was in control of sex trafficking jumped and started to pled for his life. "What you do is completely unacceptable." She growled in Arabian. She raised her blade but Bruce ran and grabbed her arms.

"Selina don't!" Her eyes widen. "He deserves justice!"

She heard nothing but her name echoing in her head in his voice. "You want justice!? Fine!" She took the man by the collar and put him in back of her horse tied up. She went back to the girls and got them to their families. She then tossed the man to the village people. "This man," she points to Bruce, "says this man deserves justice. He ordered men to burn your village, take your children and I give you what he believes this man deserves. Do as you please." Selina walked away as the people started to beat him and Bruce looked at it in horror. She passed him, "that' your justice."

Bruce followed her to the castle but before they made twenty close to it she punched him. "Who are you and how do you know my name?" He didn't respond. He didn't know how to. "Who are you!?" She snarled and punched him again. He wiped blood from his now spilt lip. "You stock me! You know my name. You come into my room and walk out without anything to say! Who are you?" She grabbed her dagger and poked under his chin with it.

He reacted quickly and kissed her lips. He didn't know why but her did. She kicked him away and her green eyes showed more anger than before. "Where did you get that sliver box in your room?"

"What?"

"That sliver box in your room, where did you get it."

"I stole it from some dude, didn't live after our encounter."

"Are you sure?"She eyed him more closely, "Because I remember you taking that box from me and kissing me, then leaving."
