Jason
It was 2:30 when I finally arrived home after another long night playing vigilante. All I wanted was sleep. I finally reached my safe house (house? Apartment?). I dropped off my things, getting ready for bed when I hear the window open.
I grabbed one of my numerous guns, made sure it was loaded, and went to check who was stupid enough to mess with me tonight. They had come in though my bedroom, I was in the kitchen only with my shorts still on. I got closer to the door, I hear scuffling and a man's moan. I opened the door to a "tt, Todd put your gun down before you hurt yourself." The insufferable demon spawn, holding a young man about his age, and a girl next to him.
"wh- who? Demon Spawn what are you doing here?!" I yelled ignoring the other two.
"I want to question these two but I wouldn't get answers till we fix Re- Daniel." Damien stopped himself and looked at the girl. She was about 5'8, hair and face covered by a hood, her tannish skin was covered in scars, she seemed a little familiar.
"why here?" I asked bluntly
"tt, you're the closest thing around and I'm not taking them to the cave." I saw the young man in Demon's arms, with the exception of the white hair he looked exactly like Damian. I had heard the story of Respawn, I figured this was him.
I pointed at the two unknowns," who are you?"
The girl hesitated," this is Daniel, I am ... Abby." Why did that name sound familiar. A distant memory was nagging at me, but I couldn't -
" he needs help Todd." I went over to see Daniel. He was bad, patched up by someone with decent medical skill, still. I lifted him up and set him on my bed, Abigail stiffened when I carried him over, obviously she cares for him. Romantic or something else?
"look, I have the equipment, but -"
Abby cut me off "I can just show me."
A hour later after fixing Daniel.
Abby finally rests in the kitchen, exhausted but still on edge. I sit across from her and Damien next to me.
Damien says" answers"
She shook her head," names first. I told you ours, now you tell me yours. Also lose the mask." Demanding.
Damien points to me then himself," Todd, Robin" I know she's glaring at him.
"no, real, first names. No answers till then and your mask." Why doesn't she care about last names?
" ok, as long as you take off the hood." After a minute to consider, she nods. I look at Damien.
Reluctantly he takes off his mask. She takes a sharp breath but says nothing. Curious, since Daniel was just in other room, no comment about the two looking nearly identical, maybe Daniel told her about Damian.
"My name is Damien." She nods and looks at me.
"Jason" she was staring at me, it felt like forever.
"Jason, do you remember a little girl you tried to help long ago? She was in chains, and next to a pit." At last she began to pull down her hood.," You gave her a name, do you remember what it was?"
As she let her hood down, I saw her face. She look strikingly like a mix between Talia Al Gual and Bruce. More towards Talia, but she had Bruce's blue, intense, eyes. Her hair was so dark it was hard to tell if it was brown or black. She had a streak a of white in her hair, like I did, only hers ran longer. Her hair was up, and in knots, as if it had never been brushed. I would put her age at 13 or 14. I knew her.
For a moment, all I could do was stare, Damian kept looking back and forth perplexed. At last, I nodded" Abigail" she started to cry, a smile on her face. She had kept the name I had given her.
