"Let Elsa's family go Ra's!" Batman growled
"Not until she accepts her fate as the head of demons."
"Not gonna happen."
"I don't think that's your decision to make detective?" Ra's then turned to Elsa "So your highness what will it be? Your family's life for the league?"'
As Elsa pondered her next move Robin started studying his surroundings, despite being wounded he still felt enough strength in himself to fight back. He had a saber to his throat but the assassin's attention seemed more focused on Ra's then him, that would turn out to be a grave mistake.
"This is why you did all of this is it Ra's?" Elsa realized "You freed Scarecrow, used him as your puppet, hoping that him destroying my home would be enough for me to give in and join a madman like you."
"Very smart of you your majesty, but regardless of my actions, everything I do is for the greater good of this planet. Look around you Elsa, the world is full of evil, brother will kill brother just for the fun of it, for nothing more than the motive of the thrill in it. Not me, I kill because it is the only way to save this pathetic world. Imagine a great disaster, millions, no, billions of people wiped out in the matter of days. Those who survive will have no choice but to put their feelings for their fellow man aside to work together to save the planet. Don't you see Elsa? My goal, my dream, is for unity, peace, for a world with no violence, no crime, and the only way to do that is to wipe out the evil and start anew."
Elsa couldn't believe Ra's way of thinking, this man was completely deranged. "Your insane. You think playing God will bring peace to this world? Newsflash, there will always be bad people, even if you wipe out every single person not in your League and start the world over with them there will still be evil. Maybe not eventually, but in time rather in the next generation or the one after the world will find it's way back the same way it is now. Don't you see Ra's? You can't change anything, because that would require taking away people's free will, which you can never do. Your fighting a battle that you will never ever be able to win."
Suddenly, before his captor could expect it Robin grabbed the sword that was to his neck, elbowed his captor in the gut, took out two Wing Dings and tossed then at the other two assassins causing them to drop the swords held to the necks of Anna and Kristoff.
With her family and friend free Elsa could now strike, She created several icicles in the air and shot them at Ra's direction, causing Ra's to have to dodge towards his right to avoid getting struck.
"I will never join you Ra's no matter how many assassins you send my way, no matter how many attacks you take on my home. I will never stoop down to the sadistic level of someone like you."
"If you won't join us," Ra's growled as he took out his sword "Then you will die!" Ra's swung his sword in Elsa's direction. Elsa had to quickly create a sword of ice in order to counter Ra's blade. The two blades quickly made contact, barely avoiding piercing Elsa's skin.
Batman and the Birds of Prey was about to join Elsa in battle but suddenly several assassins appeared and surrounded the masked crime fighters. Taking out his Batarange, Batman lead the attack, tossing his batarange, knocking the sword out of one assassins hand. Then Batman lunged, tackling the assassin to the ground and slamming his head against the ground before turning his attention to another assassin.
The birds followed suit, using her Canary cry Black Canary caused several assassins to be sent into the air scattering in many different directions. With the assassins scattered, the masked crime fighters could now focus on one at a time. Black Canary walked up to a female assassin who was picking herself off the ground. The assassin swung at Black Canary but she easily dodged her swing before kicking the assassin in the face with her heels, knocking her out. A male assassin tried to take Black Canary from behind but she sensed it, grabbed the assassin by the arm, twisted it backwards before turning around and delivering a knee to the crotch, causing him to instantly drop.
Batgirl found herself dodging the swing of a male assassin twice her size. She delivered a punch to the gut but that did little to slow him down. This assassin was big, and all muscles. She wouldn't be able to take him down with just brute strength because he definitely had her beat in that category. Batgirl quickly studied her surroundings. There was a crane right above them, left over for some construction going on for another business.
"That would work." Batgirl said to herself. Dodging another swing from the giant assassin, Batgirl took out some explosive gel, sprayed it on one of her bataranges and threw it towards the crane, once it hit the chain holding the crane it exploded. Batgirl suddenly retreated before the assassin knew what was happening. Seeing the shadow of the crane he turned around and screamed as the crane fell on top of him knocking him out.
Huntress and Katanna both tagged team several assassins wielding weapons. Huntress shot several arrows at one assassin but the female assassin was able to block each one with her sword.
"You think you can beat me with a mere crossbow?" The female assassin laughed "I am way to much trained to go down like that!"
"Than maybe you should get a load of me!" The assassin turned around and saw Katanna lunging at her. The assassin barely had time to block Katanna's strike before Huntress took the opportunity to shoot a arrow behind the assassins knee causing her to scream in pain. Then Katanna spoke a chat in Japanese and took the assassin's soul, trapping her in Soultaker.
"Huntress behind you!" Katanna suddenly screamed Huntress turned around and shot a arrow into the shoulder of another assassin causing him to fall.
"Thanks," Huntress replied before her eyes widened "Katanna behind you!"
Katanna turned around and using Soultaker she took another assassin's soul.
"Thanks."
Elsa and Ra's continued to do battle, Elsa created a small blizzard that circled them as the two continued to clash swords.
"Give it up Elsa, there is only one way this is going to end!" Ra's roared "Either you strike me down or I strike you down! Either way, the only way you get out of this alive is taking my spot!"
Ra's words only infuriated Elsa more, screaming she created a giant wind that tossed Ra's several feet backwards. Gaining control of himself however Ra's was able to cause himself to land on his feet and his right hand.
"Impressive Queen Elsa!" Ra's chuckled "Your skills are better than I ever dreamed with these powers you could send the entire world into another ice age. I knew you were the perfect choice to be my successor."
"Only it won't happen!" Elsa screamed shooting several more icicles his way. Ra's was able to block several of them with his sword but a couple was able to scrape both his arms causing Ra's to yell at the pain and grab one of his injured arms.
"I'm impressed Elsa, you were able to wound me, but can you finish the job?" Ra's grabbed his sword again and lunged at Elsa, once again Elsa was able to block it with her own sword. The two struggled to gain dominance, but Elsa was soon finding out that Ra's was well more stronger than her, and he was about to overpower her.
"Your skills has improved Elsa, but your strength is your biggest weakness, you cannot overpower me."
"I don't have to!" Elsa screamed as she put her hand on Ra's abdomen and started freezing him, causing him to scream and fall off her. He raised his shirt quickly to see he had a patch of frostbite. Looking at Elsa surprised he was defenseless against her next attack. She created four giant ice walls that trapped him inside but that wasn't all though, as a finishing blow Elsa froze Ra's from the neck down. Once Elsa was insured that Ra's couldn't escape she lowered the four walls and walked up to Ra's.
"You should have killed me," Ra's hissed "All you have done is put a target on your family's back. I will not stop, until you either take my spot or die."
"Your wrong on both statements." Elsa replied "I will not kill you, but you will not be threatening me or my family ever again. Because I am going to ensure you never get out of prison."
"You think a mere prison will hold me? I am the Demon's head!"
"And I am the snow Queen, and what better way to contain a demon, then with ice!"
Elsa then punched Ra's over the back of the head and knocked him out as Batman joined Elsa at her side "I will ensure you that I will have him locked up in the tightest secured prison Elsa where he will not escape."
"He attacked my home, he is my prisoner. I will create a ice prison, warm enough to keep him alive, but cold enough to where he won't be strong enough to escape. And if the league tries to free him, I think I have proven I can defend myself pretty well."
"You have," Batman replied "I was wrong about you, you truly do have what it takes to be a hero."
Elsa liked the sound of that. "A hero," Then a idea crossed her mind, "About that?"
Next chapter wraps everything up, don't go anywhere.
