Chapter #5

Batman was on the verge of defeat. His tactics and gadgets were all useless to this anonymous new fella. He seemed to quite comprehend all of his moves and even the arsenal of his weapons.

He was now lying down at the ground with a foot on his throat. The amount of force I exerted on him made is breathing become more nimble as it became hard and hard to breath.

Then suddenly, spider sense started to go haywire. A bunch of bat boomerangs were heading my way but I managed to evade each one of them.

" Batman are you okay?" Robin asked his adopted father as he tried to help him stand.

Now the whole party of bat freaks were all ganged up in one place. I had a gut feeling that this was gonna be a pain.

Robin was the first to make a move with bat girl as the support to intervene when things went south. I managed to take out Robin's staff using my webbing.

Then it all came down to martial arts. He was really skilled but I outclassed him in both speed and agility.

Batgirl ambushed me from the back but her effort were fruitless in the end. No one who could ambush me with spider sense on alert.

I couldn't forget that Batman was not out of the stage. The ambush attack was meaningless. They had to strategize and pour all of their training on taking me down.

They all attacked at the same time with a coordinated strategy. Batman was on the offensive this time, he was to prevent me from using my webs to get the upper hand. Hand to hand combat was his forte, and my martial arts skills were not good enough to suffice. But my superhuman agility and speed gave me an upper hand in avoiding his attacks.

I shot a webbing from my wrist to retreat and plan my moves but Batgirl cut the webbing using a boomerang.

Suddenly, I saw batman bend and the boy wonder jumped from his back with a staff on hand. The dark knight acted as a decoy so as Robin could take the hit. He clenched his fingers around the staff and swinged it with all his might. The staff connected perfectly with my left jaw knocking me down.

Everything started to get all dizzy but still I wasn't gonna go down that easy. I struggled to stand up as they all gazed at my pathetic self.

"Identify yourself, who are you?" Robin inquired as he held a staff pointed at me.

" Who am I? Isn't it that obvious."

"I know you are with the league of shadows but still you seem different somehow." Batgirl chimed in.

"You know miss. You look quite pretty in that costume. Would you like to go out with me sometime?"

"This is no time for jokes." Batman angrily rebuked as he held me by the collar and lifted me up.

"Tell me why was the league of shadows after you?"

I kept silent and chuckled mockingly.

Batman's patience was running out so he cooled down his anger and knocked me out with an anesthetic needle.

I blacked out and before I knew it I was in a strange room tied on a chair.

"Was this a torture room? I don't recall batman ever torturing anybody to get information from them." I thought.

The room was dark even with the flickering bulb lighting a small portion of it.

Then I heard the door open and a black woman with stuffy cheeks entered. Her eyes were kinda of spooky and she even made me feel some chills down my spine. She emanated an aura which stated unfriendly.

I guess by the looks you could probably notice that it was Amanda waller. Our eyes met and neither did I of her try to disconnect the contact. We were staring daggers to each other as if reading each other's mind.

But the gaze was interrupted by the intervention of batman who seemed to notice that something was off between the two of us. The detective then called waller outside for a few words of discussion. I could hear their conversation well but I was a master at reading lips.

"Amanda Waller's pov."

"The boy doesn't seem to be intimidated by me. I could not get anything from his gaze at all but for some reason I felt a chill down my spine. He isn't any ordinary villain. The way he looked at me is as if he knew me inside and out, not even my own daughter is aware of like that or any close colleagues.

His interesting"

"Amanda are you listening?" Amanda's thought were interrupted and she shifted her attention to the six ft guy standing before him with a serious look and frown which could be noticed under the half face mask.

"I need you to keep me aware of any tabs involving him. And don't try anything shady with me Waller."

"Aah! you are gonna make me laugh batman. I never thought that anything or anyone at that would ever give you the creeps that you would him over to me." Amanda chuckled with a scornful stare.

Batman just narrowed his eyes and looked at Amanda.

" Say whatever you wish. I tried to look in the database and his genetic composition seemed to be kinda of specially modified. His powers maybe something else entirely if he learns how to use them well. Just don't disappoint me." Batman concluded with a warning as he left Waller and walked away to attend to another business.

Waller's expression seemed to tell that she didn't like his tone. He seemed to act all might and above her in rank while he was just a fucking vigilante.

Waller then shifted her gaze towards me. There was a moment of silence before she opened her mouth.

"What's so special about you? Why is the league of shadows after one of their own? You must have some dark secret about the league that they would hunt you down like this."

I just kept quiet as usual and did not utter a single word.

" Well then if that's how it's gonna be then, am taking you with me to and I think by then you will change your mind."

She ordered some few guards to move me out and escort me to the worst detention cell with the worst if criminals, Belle Reve.
