Robin sat beside Batman as they drove insanely fast towards the building that the commissioner and Batgirl currently were, he was completely silent. Pondering their current predicament.
I told Batman she was a loose cannon, but noooo, 'have faith in her' he says 'never betray us' he says…not saying much now are you?
"Hey birdie birdie, wanna play a game?"
Robin turned to Batman, but he was still staring straight ahead at the road; completely oblivious to what Robin was hearing through his communicator.
"I'm bored of the commissioner now, fancy trying your luck?"
Robin didn't reply, it was definitely Batgirl - no one else on the planet had a voice that annoying.
"Batman can't hear me right now, I don't want him to play, he'd cheat and ruin the game! But you'll play fair little birdie, but you probably wont come anyway. You always do as your told, such a good birdie" Batgirl giggled from her end of the communicator, wherever that may be.
Robin wanted nothing more than to go and beat the holy crap out of Batgirl (which he totally could) but he knew that she was baiting him…still…
"I bet your going to be a good birdie and stay exactly where you are when Batman tells you to, otherwise you might have to go to bed early!" Batgirl cackled and that did it, just as she knew it would.
The Batmobile stopped and Batman jumped out, turning to Robin.
"Stay here, I'll be back soon" He ordered, charging into the burning building.
Robin waited a few seconds before reaching up to his ear where his comm. device was.
"Where are you?"
Batman noticed Robin's silence throughout the journey but dismissed it as brooding, strangely enough Robin brooded a lot. Not nearly as much as he did himself but still too much for a twelve year old.
"Hey batty boy!"
Batman wasn't sure if Robin saw it, but Batman stiffened when Batgirl's voice giggled into his ear. He glanced at Robin but he was still stoic, facing the window.
"I'm booored, wanna play with me?" She asked him but Batman said nothing, instead staring straight ahead at the rode as he drove closer to the ever growing smoke plumes in the distance.
"I'm in the warehouse with the commissioner, but I have one condition" She cooed into his ear and he waited for her reply anxiously.
"Leave the bird behind, otherwise he'll die, and I'll make you watch" The Batmobile stopped and Batman jumped out, turning to Robin.
"Stay here, I'll be back soon" He ordered, charging into the burning building.
Batgirl sat on her perch and giggled as Robin landed on the roof of the building she was on, watching her carefully as she looked out over Gotham.
"Pretty isn't it?" She asked him still staring down at the town she had protected so furiously until now.
"If you catch it at dusk, when the sun is just setting over the horizon. The whole city goes blood red, kinda reflects the place don't you think?" She asked him turning on her perch, the golem on top of Gotham bank.
Robin remained silent as he approached her, he knew he could defeat her but if he got cocky she would use that against him. Batman had taught him all he knew about Batgirl, and all of the Batman's moves.
"Batgirl likes to manipulate your emotions, make you angry. Though I doubt she even knows she's doing it" Batman told him as Robin sat, watching Batgirl as she trained on the rooftops of Gotham, completely unaware that she was being watched.
"How can she not know she's doing it?" Robin asked confused.
"Because it isn't intentional, she's just herself. She analyses everything and anything, and I am starting to believe she may have a photographic memory" Batman replied watching her as though he was trying to analyse her as she trained.
"So she's really annoying?" Robin asked with a frown, assessing Batgirl begrudgingly.
"You'd think that, but no. She's charismatic in the most brilliant sense of the word" Batman replied and from then on, the two were silent.
Batgirl turned around, stood, and then jumped from her perch and started walking towards Robin.
"Well birdie, aren't you stupid? If only you'd stayed in the car like Batman told you" She tutted, sounding truly disappointed in Robin, like a mother scolding her child.
"I'm not afraid of you" Robin told her, and he wasn't. Yet.
"I don't want you to be afraid of me, I want you to suffer, to plead for your own death like the mongrel you are. Not worthy of touching the mud on my boots" Batgirl hissed and Robin lunged at her, intending to catch her of guard.
Batgirl batted his hands away lazily and elbowed him in the face, he stumbled back but recovered quickly. He swept his right foot behind Batgirl's left and pulled her leg forward, sending her down onto one knee but as he went to crack his foot against her knee she twisted and he went past her. Lurching forwards suddenly and Batgirl punched him in the stomach, using his weight as he fell.
He coughed as Batgirl twisted her hip and threw him to the edge of the building, where he barely managed to avoid falling over the edge. It was a long way down, with a very fast fall and a very sudden stop.
Batgirl stood in front of him as he lay by the edge, suddenly wishing he hadn't disobeyed Batman and given into Batgirls taunts.
"Well birdie, I hope you learn to fly" She hissed at him, grabbing his grappler before holding him over the edge of the building by the collar of his outfit.
"Batgirl, put him down"
Batgirl didn't even turn, she just grinned.
"If you insist"
Hey peeps! Tulip here!
Before we do anything I want you all to say thank you to kindleflame who PM'd me and reminded me that I do have to write this! (I've got my mocks coming up along with an art exam and got a bit distracted but it's all good now!)
I hope you guys enjoy this (late) chapter as it's all about to come together!
What more could Batgirl do to hurt all those that have hurt her? I know, but you don't. Feel free to guess!
Knightmare,…what on earth made you think that she would give up control over the Batcave? Why would you even think that? I'M INSULTED! *huffy face*
Kindleflame, once again than you for bugging me, and also, I have that scene in my head (as well as one with Robin hanging upside down in nothing but his boxers) and will of course be writing it, I think I'm going to start a mini-fic where you guys can send in suggestions and I will try my best to write them. If you like this idea please say as much.
Highlander, I haven't addressed what happened to the commissioner but I will in due time!
WinterRain, You are right, Batgirl does have a lot of problems. Something I shall address in the next fic where Batman learns her identity *GASP!* but don't worry, the blunder chicken will remain blissfully ignorant (well maybe not blissfully)
Read and Review guys!
Tulip Out.
