It was a few days later and Adair was lying on the cot, almost asleep, when Bane burst in. She jerked awake, and almost feel off the small cot. Bane slammed the door, with far more force than necessary, and left a hole in the wood.
"What's wrong?" she asked and hopped off the cot, walking over to him. She carefully reached for the knife that was in her belt, just in case.
"She is with him… she let him touch her!" he roared. She jumped back, like a scared cat, to the corner of the room, holding up the knife.
"He will pay!" he roared again. She backed farther into the corner and held the knife up. He spotted this, and he let out a dark chuckle.
"You think you can hurt me with a knife? Ha, you're pathetic!" he yelled and lurched forward, grabbing the knife from her hands and snapping the blade in two. She let out a little cry and straightened to her full height, pressing her back against the wall. Bane chuckled again and his hand went to her throat and he lifted her off the ground, and she gasped, desperately trying to get air.
"I won't kill you. Now yet, not until I kill him." he whispered and then dropped her. She landed on her knees and she coughed, rubbing her throat. Bane stood over for her for a moment, and then turned and walked out of the room, leaving Adair coughing on the ground. Bane had enough anger to kill Batman and he had the strength to do it. Watch out, Batman. The beast is coming for you….
o0o
Crack.
The Batman's back broke. The beast broke him.
Adair cringed and turned away from the gruesome sight. Catwoman was standing behind a door, and she caught her eye. Catwoman handed Batman practically into Bane's hands. Fright made people do things they never would have done before.
Bane stood over the broken man. Compared to Batman, while anyone actually, Bane is a giant. He is completely muscle, all strength. He could easily break Adair in half if he wanted to.
The Batman was unconscious. And Bane decided to send him back to his prison, the Pit. One of the worst fates a man can be sent to. They took Batman away, and as soon as he was gone, Catwoman ran away. Adair was still on the metal bridge where she watched the fight. Her knuckled are white from gripping the railing. She heard the familiar, heavy footsteps on the metal behind her.
"You really destroyed him, didn't you?" She asked him. She didn't turn to face him, only continued staring at dark ground.
"He needed it," he grumbled and suddenly he lashed out at the metal railing, breaking the rods and they fell to the ground with a loud clatter. She caught her breath and stepped backwards, away from the angry monster. He turned to her, fire lighting his eyes.
"She went with him… he touched her!" he yelled angrily. She shied away from his harsh voice, the anger in his voice so different from his usual soft tone he used with her. She was silent for a few moments, allowing Bane to release his anger on the metal railings.
"Talia? Talia went with him?" she asked once he was still.
"Yes… why would she do that?" he asked angrily, releasing another strike at the metal, breaking another piece.
"Well, it's Bruce Wayne-"
"Would you do it? Would you be with him?" he asked, anger rising in his voice.
"What? Of course I wouldn't!" she cried, anger rising in her own voice. Doesn't he know better by now?
"Oh, you silly little girl. Of course you would-"
But he was cut off by her crushing her lips against his metal mask. Her eyes were squeezed shut, and her hands were on his cheeks, forcing him closer to her face. His arms are frozen momentarily, and then the relaxed and his hands touched her hips, and then he grabbed her and crushed her body against his. It hurt, being in his huge, strong arms and being crushed against the leather, but she didn't care. She pressed her face even closer, feeling metal cut her lip and she tasted copper. She then pulled away, out of his arms. She backed up; gasping and she wiped the blood away.
"There is only one man I would ever be with. But you would never be with me," she said and then turned and walked back to her room, leaving Bane alone on the metal bridge.
Ok, your turn! Please, please review!
