____________________________________
The plane landed. Nothing strange or dangerous happened during the flight. I was glad of it like no one else. If my feet don't touch the ground, I feel uncomfortable, because in a plane I feel locked in, with no chance of retreat.
No, I'm not afraid of flying, but when my super intuition screams that something bad is about to happen to me, I start to worry. Whatever it was, we landed safely, which means that danger awaits me on Mother Earth, and this at least inspires hope. Well, enough of these anxious thoughts, because we are finally in Midvale.
This, if anyone didn't know, is a fictional town from comics, which means that in this world it exists in only one copy. Therefore, there is no DC or Marvel prefix next to it.
After looking around a bit and admiring the new views, I once again focused my attention on the main task - Kavito Rao. I rented a car and drove to the specified address for the meeting place. I drove for about fifteen minutes, and suddenly the anxious feeling returned. I was being watched... This is not the first time I felt under surveillance.
Thanks to my intuition, I felt a close look on me during my stay in Gotham. But I did not know who it was, and what their intentions were. Since they followed me even to another city, they are serious. It's time to deal with them and find out who is spying on me. I changed the route and led them to a place where there would be no witnesses, to an abandoned building that used to be a metal recycling plant.
Yes, I did not find this place by chance; I found out about it before the flight and prepared for this meeting. Leaving the car nearby, I headed inside the dilapidated building. Hmm, the looks are getting more and more intense, and I can even feel the murderous intent among them.
Well, now it's clear that they weren't following me to do me a favor or ask me to take out a loan from the bank. Although I'm not sure about the latter, you can expect anything from these hyenas.
Their thirst for murder is getting stronger. It seems they don't even think about the fact that I can sense their hidden nature. But my intuition is an even more accurate sensor than Batman's paranoia. It's time to end this farce.
"Hey, people, come out! Let's talk about a humane life, about semolina porridge," I said a little louder, and my voice echoed along the walls of the empty building. "I know that you were following me back in Gotham, and now here. But then you weren't so brazen and tried to keep your distance, acted cautiously, as if you were afraid of being discovered. But here you behave differently, as if the shackles were removed from you. It seems you didn't expect me to know about the surveillance, so you were acting cautiously last time not because of me, but because of someone else. You were afraid of the Dark Knight, thought he might find out about you... Ah, I think I figured out who you are. I didn't think the League of Shadows would take an interest in me so quickly."
As soon as I said those last words, I was surrounded by ten men in black robes, their faces hidden by masks, katanas slung over their shoulders. What a mess I was in….Why did they need me? Ra's al Ghul was interested in me? But why? I don't think I've shown any special activity worthy of his attention.
In his eyes, I must still be an ordinary person, a rising celebrity, certainly not someone to be followed. Is it because I'm Batman's apprentice? Did he find out that Bruce is training me? Perhaps, but again, that's not enough.
What else? Wait, did he find out that I was the one who told Wayne about Damien and Jason Todd? No, how would he know that? Bruce would never have told him, and there were no other witnesses to our conversation.
Maybe... No, that's crazy. Although... Don't tell me he figured out everyone Bruce had contact with and was looking for the one who could have given him information about his son and the revived student.
After all, Gotham's protector almost immediately went to the Demon's Head as soon as he checked Jason's grave and did not find a body there. And not long before that, it was I who met him ... This prehistoric monster is really very paranoid, but at the same time he deserves all his years of life, since he managed to figure me out.
I doubt that he was sure that it was me who gave Bruce the information, but after today, he will definitely take me on the hook and will not let go until he finds out everything. To hell with him, this is a matter for future days. At the moment, I need to deal with the problems that are in front of me.
"So ten people?" I looked around. "And the other five are not going to join us?" In the places where my gaze fell, four figures in the same shapes as the others soon appeared. But the last enemy was not going to show up.
Apparently, it was their leader, and they did not want to do me the honor of revealing themself. Well, to hell with them, I'll deal with them later.
Anyway, thanks to my intuition, I know exactly where you are hiding, and you will not be able to catch me off guard. All this time, I tried to stay in the shadows and not attract attention to myself. Who knew that even in the shadows, they could find me?
Looks like the time has come to declare myself to the world of villains ... This will definitely not end well. No matter how you look at it, they do not want to talk to me. I doubt that they will kill me, no, they will most likely stun me and deliver me to their boss so that he can personally deal with me. This gives me an advantage, since I do not have to fear for my life. Which is not at all what I can say about their lives, because in this fight I do not intend to hold back one iota.
"Come on, come on, ninja, take your fists while they're hot," I took a pompous stance and began to lure them to me with my palm. Three of them jerked in my direction, when suddenly, balls fell on the floor, from which clouds of black smoke began to burst out at the same moment. A white mask with a lightning-shaped mark on my forehead and a smiling mouth was already on my face.
It's worth noting that it appeared on my face in literally a second, as if out of nowhere, just like these balls of smoke. Of course, I took them out of my inventory... To be honest, I really like the possibility of this ability, with which you can instantly wrap yourself in the necessary equipment.
So, having sensibly assessed the situation, I realized that I was in deep trouble. I had not yet mastered the technique of battle so much that I could single-handedly take out fourteen fighters from the League of Shadows, even despite the fact that they were just pawns.
