Do not go gentle into that good night but rage, rage against the dying of the light. -Dylan Thomas
That's when he met Talia while storming off trying to get away from Batman's hawk like eyes.
"Boy Wonder?"
The owner of the smooth silk like voice asked in curiosity. When Jason first heard her voice he instantly threw a set of batarangs at the source of the voice from whence it came. She instantly deflected them with her sword. Jason came rushing towards her. He needed something to take his anger out on and she was the closest thing. He threw a flurry of punches and kicks the punches aimed for her head and the kicks aimed for.her lower body and legs. But they were all easily dodged by her. She had the grace of a ballerina but the skill of a martial arts master. She gave him a wicked grin before finally going on the offensive. It was like she knew something he didn't, and this ticked him off to no end a little She swung the sword with blinding speed. Jason tried to dodge most of the swings and thrusts but she managed to give him a few cuts. It made him learn what to watch out for and what he could not,but more importantly what he could counter and parry. After being cut for the fifth time in there little tussle. Jason blocked the next swing of her sword with his gauntlets. Dropping down on one knee and releasing a jab to her stomach with his fist. The attack taking the air out of her for a moment. Jason smirked knowing he had gained the upper hand in the battle. He used the attack to take her by the wrist. He held it with both hands forcing her to kneel as her arm was held in a awkward position. Making her drop her sword. She returned his smile. It was a wicked one. Almost matching the intensity of his. The two didn't know it but they where both having the time of their life. Two warrior's two soldiers from a different cause in the heat of battle. Something was unknowingly blossoming inside both of their heart's. She did something he didn't expect at that moment. Sliding under him despite Jason still having her arm in a tight hold. It caused him to fall flat on his ass. As he had lost his footing combined with the sudden weight shift. Causing him to.do.a front flip on his back. Talia stood up a face of triumph displayed on her features. Jason looked up at her and glared at her teeth gritted.
"Is that all you have boy wonder? Cause if so Bruce made a big mistake making you Robin?"
She taunted wanting to see how.far she could push Jason until he cracked giving her a psychological advantage over him. She loved being in control but she loved to play mind games even more. Jason growled like a beast and jumped up and charged at her all in one go. Almost with blinding speed. He was seeing nothing but red. Talia was actually concerned for her wellbeing at that moment. But quickly recovered her composure. She woudnt let the teen recieve a advantage over her. Jason came back with a combination of kicks and well placed strikes. Talia having more and more of a hard time blocking them as Jason would change his foot work and the different combinations he would dish out. Talia was forced to backup to the point where she was inches off the roof. She was wide eyed and taken aback at the fury and rage Jason had. She never saw or witnessed anything quite like it until now. Even though she was so close to death at that moment she did not fear it. Jason saw that she was backed up to the point where she was on the edge of the roof. At that moment he couldn't really give a damn. He was tired of everyone throwing his mistakes and there mistrust for him in his face. He would show them all that he wasn't one to be messed with anymore. That he would be taken seriously.
"Is that all you have Talia? Maybe it was a mistake for Ra's to bring you into this game of his"
He said mockingly before spinning off his back foot. His boot connecting with her chest sending her off the roof. Talia was so shocked at the events that took place that she couldn't fight back. She was at the mercy of Jason no not Jason. This wasn't the Jason she knew or the Jason the intel had informed her of. This was a different person. She was glad. Glad to die at the hands of such a warrior. She closed her eyes and accepted her fate stretching out her arms and free falling to her inevitable doom.
