Chapter 6

The Turn


Aisha walked into the stock exchange with a smile and a brief case. She was alone to set up the program to jump start when their plan would take foot and fly.

"Good day Ms. Noor" the security guard said as he stood in front of the office doors. "What happened to your face?"

"Ahh Barry, it is nothing I fell down the stairs" Aisha said with a smile as she walked forward "Could you be a darling and open the door for me, I have to set up a few things for the Wayne enterprises"

"Forget your keycard again" Barry said and Aisha let out a small laugh "You know I am not supposed to let you in"

"Oh but Barry I promise I will be quick before anyone else comes so you won't get in trouble" Aisha said as she stepped closer and rested an arm on Barry's. "Please darling, just need a few moments"

"Oh alright, here you go Ms. Noor" Barry said with slight redness in his face.

"Thank you darling" Aisha said with a smile as she entered the office with and quickly headed down the hall to the server room where the large computers were.

Aisha walked down an aisle and opened up a panel where she hacked into the camera and did a loop where she wouldn't show up. Aisha then proceeded to start to plant the program, it would need a day to finish the program install, but it would go undetected to anyone on the system. Soon she finished and started to head out and gave Barry a kiss on the cheek as she silently stole his ID badge and headed outside and down a street to where Bane was waiting on the bike.

"Is it done" Bane said as Aisha climbed on the back of the bike.

"The program is doing what is necessary and should be ready tomorrow" Aisha said with a smile "I have the means to get everyone in place tomorrow all is a go"

"Excellent" Bane said and notice Aisha got quiet. "Problem"

"I fingerprints were not good enough" Aisha said "We need new ones and done by an expert, Daggett needs to get another person to do in order for the program to work to its full potential. To finalize it we need better prints from his right hand not left"

"You will get what you need" Bane said "He will not fail me again"

"Good I would hate to see this plan fail because of a fool like him" Aisha said as they headed off back to the hideout and Bane head out again with Basard.

Aisha thought it would be good to get out once more to see what the city is before it started. She knew for a while something was stirring in Gotham, it was a city that needed something. The Joker had started something more so than the League of shadows did years ago. He started a new kind of criminal that would enter the city. Aisha walked into a restaurant and saw Miranda as she headed to her seat, she knew who she really was. Aisha thought that she was a foolish woman, her motives weren't in there. She was simply doing this because she thought it was a duty.

"As long as she leaves me alone I will leave her alone" Aisha said to herself as she looked back down at her menu.

"Ms. Noor?" Miranda said as Aisha groaned on the inside but lied with a smile.

"Ahh Ms. Tate, how good it is to see you" Aisha said as she laid the menu down and noticed her clothes "Come from the party at Wayne Manor?"

"Yes it was delightful" Miranda said "Well, have a good evening"

"As do you Ms. Tate" Aisha said as she followed Miranda across the room with her eyes before lowering them to the menu again.

Aisha was walking down the street with a bag left of the food she didn't finish in the restaurant.

"You think you're so smart" a voice said and Aisha recognized it as Miranda's.

"Really" Aisha said as she turned and saw Miranda standing there "I am not the one trying to play nice with Bruce Wayne" a spark of shock was seen in Miranda's eyes before it faded.

"You know nothing of what we are trying to do here" she said and Aisha just laughed "I can have you killed"

"Go ahead" Aisha said as she starred at her "I'd like to see you try, you may think you are privileged from being Ra's Al Gaul daughter, that you are the best. Since you were in the League of Shadows, since you escaped Hell on Earth" Aisha stepped forward right up to Miranda and looked into her eyes "If you ever come near me again I will personally gut you with this" she then pulled out a knife "I will make that pretty face of yours into a monster, I will show you what hell is like and no one, not even Bane will be able to save you. You may have escaped Hell, but I never left" Aisha then gave Miranda a sweet smile "Get out of my sight you whelping bitch"

Miranda stood for a moment before she huffed off and Aisha just turned continued down the street before she was pulled into an alley and slammed against the wall and let out a noise.

"She is to pretty to waste; let's have some fun before we kill her" the man said as he held Aisha by her neck.

"We were paid to kill her not fuck her" the other said.

"Who will know the difference" the first said and Aisha just starred at them.

She recognized them from a few men she saw Miranda talking with in previous months, the thought made her laugh which caused her captors to look at her.

"What are you laughing at bitch" he said.

"You" Aisha said as she then took the knife that she was still holding and slammed it up into his jaw and the guy jerked back in shock and let Aisha go as his hands went to his jaw. "Do you honestly think I am helpless"

"You bitch" the other said and charged at Aisha as she then took the knife and stuck it into his neck cutting his artery causing blood to spray on her. Aisha turned her face so she would worry about it going in her mouth so her hair caught most of the blood with splotches on her face. He dropped like a rock and Aisha turned her attention to the other man on the ground holding his job.

"Oh you poor sweet thing" Aisha said as she leaned down and saw on the man's chest and ran the knife across it "Must hurt" she then grabbed hold of his jaw as he tried to cry out "Not so tough now are you" she then leaned down with a wicked smile "Welcome to Hell"

By the time Aisha was on her way back to Bane's hideout she saw cop cars everywhere as a frown formed on her bloodied face. Once she reached the tunnels she noticed two of Bane's men dragging Commissioner Gordon who was not with it. This enraged Aisha. Gordon was a good man, one of the few still remaining.

Aisha had gotten looks as she marched after the men who then dropped Gordon in front of Bane who wasn't wearing a shirt and she stopped for a moment to admire.

"What are you doing here" Bane said with his back still turned.

"You heard him" Bane's guy said and kicked Gordon and Aisha marched over to him and punched him in the face "OW you bitch!"

"I was talking to you" Bane said as he turned around and glared at the man "Choose your words wisely, and then I will kill you" before the guy could talk Aisha interrupted.

"What the hell did you kidnap Gordon for" Aisha said as she got in the guy's face "He was always off limit you baboon, did you get stupid or is the stupid showing"

"I thought you would want to question him" he said and Aisha let out a growl as she turned away from the guy wanting to smack him again but didn't get a chance as Bane shot him.

Aisha knelt down besides Gordon and noticed he was drifting in and out of conscious state, and noticed something in his pocket and took it out as she stood up and turned her back. Gordon then got up and went into the water and people were starting to shoot at him.

"STOP YOU GODDAMN IDDIOTS" Aisha hollered and they stopped.

"Go after him" Bane said calmly as he kept an eye on Aisha who was still covered in blood.

"But these go all over the city" another man said and Aisha shoved a tracking device on him and then Bane shot the man and he fell backwards into the water.

Bane's attention then turned to Aisha as his men left him alone. "Why are you covered in blood?"

"Killed some people" Aisha said as she walked past Bane and to the bathroom with Bane following her "Some thought it would be fun to try and send people to kill me"

Bane didn't reply just took a step closer to Aisha, and her whole body tensed. She then turned around and looked at Bane.

"You don't understand the meaning of personal space do you" Aisha said as then she lifted her hands and touched Bane's mask and watched his body change its stance "See, you are as uncomfortable to have someone touch you as I am" she then dropped her hands but then Bane picked her hands up and placed it on his mask.

"If I can tolerate it so can you" Bane said and then placed his hands on Aisha "I have told you, you will learn to not fear my touch" Bane then bent over and picked up Aisha and put her over his shoulder.

"Hey!" Aisha said "Put me down!"

"No" Bane said as he walked out of the bathroom and into the his bedroom where Aisha had kept all of her clothes as he gently put her down "Change"

"Right now" Aisha said and gave Bane a look.

"Then I will clean off the blood" Bane said "Then find whoever send those men"

"What if you do not like what you find" Aisha said as she turned and opened a draw that held her clothes.

"I will deal with it" Bane said "No one touches you"

Aisha looked over her shoulder at Bane, for the first time in a long time someone wanted her safe. She didn't know what changed, but now Bane had become her protector, now all she had to do was let him protect her. All of these years spent along watching her back, relief set in that someone would watched her back now too.
