Issue #50: Wrath of Bane Part 3: Outlaws
"Say your prayers, kid!" The joker goon told me as he was about to shoot me. Before he could shoot the gun, someone broke a chair over his head. After the thug fell over I saw Tim about to collapse holding the legs that remained from the chair. I quickly got up and grabbed him.
"Come on, dickhead. We've gotta get you out of here." I told him.
"protect...steph...and-"
"I'm gonna stop you right there. I don't think Orphan is gonna need me to protect her ever and neither of those two have been pistol whipped and stabbed for the last half an hour." I said shooting batarangs over Tim's shoulder at various henchmen as I dragged him out of the smoke. As I got out of the smoke I placed him by a box and looked back to see Steph and Cass still cleaning house. "I'd say don't move but I'm pretty sure if you move again you're gonna pass ou-" I began to say before I heard a bird cry and felt something land in my hair, digging their claws into my scalp. As I tried to get it off a fist suddenly punched me in the face dropping me. I started to get up before Bird kicked me in the face. He picked me up and I immediately punched him in the face. His falcon flew towards me again but I shot a net around it, dropping it. Bird grabbed me and drove me into a support beam before pulling out a knife. I grabbed him by his dumb frilly shirt and pulled him into the support beam face first.
"You're gonna need to hit a lot harder than that to beat me." I said. Bird chuckled before blowing blood out of his broken nose.
"I don't need to hit ya harder... he's gonna hit ya harder anyway." Bird said pointing behind me. I looked over and saw a big hairy guy in a green tank top and camo pants charging at me.
"Oh sh-" I began to say before I got clotheslined. Somehow he managed to wrap his arm around my neck and drag me along before throwing me straight into a wall. I stumbled forward into a powerslam to the ground. In the excruciating pain I was more angry than hurt at the fact I was getting bullied by a C rate henchman. I growled in anger and as he picked me up I pounded on my armor underneath my T-shirt. After I did I let out an electric shock that zapped the guy. I kipped up and stared the guy in the face as he looked at me angrily before a boot hit him in the face, dropping him.
"Are you Okay?" Steph asked me.
"I've been through way worse."
"When the hell did Trogg get here?"
"Is that is name?" I asked. "I think the more important question is what happened to-"
"Bane." Me and Steph looked over to where Cass was pointing and saw Bane standing at with Bird by a van which was being loaded with money and weapons.
"Do not leave until I am finished here." Bane then looked over at us and slowly started walking over. Menacingly. One of the goons Cass knocked out slowly reached for Bane's help and Bane stepped on his head, crushing it.
"oh god..." Steph muttered. Her voice was shaky and she was obviously scared.
"It's one man. We can easily take him." I told her.
"B-Bane isn't a man... he's a monster."
"You niñas have cost me much tonight. This debt you owe me will not go unpaid for." Bane said. "You must either be brave or stupid."
"Did he just call me a girl!?" I asked offended before narrowing my eyes. "I have a plan, but you guys might not like it." I said.
"What is it?" Steph asked before I flipped off Bane. "ARE YOU INSANE!?" She shouted.
"I see you are stupid!" Bane said before smacking a button on his glove, causing venom to start moving through his tubes. He began to charge at us. I grabbed Bird's knife from earlier knowing I had a clear shot at Bane's tubes. If I could jus-
My thought was derailed by Bane ramming into me while batting Steph and Cass away. He drove me through a support beam and into a bunch of glass panels in the corner of the warehouse. He then grabbed me by the shirt and punched half my mask off my face before throwing me across the building.
"My... fucking... everything!" I said before coughing up blood and clutching my side. Bane started stalking me like I was wounded prey before I got up and punched him in the face. He turned his head before slowly looking back at me.
"I am impressed. That slightly stung. Surprising considering your current condi-" He began to say before Cass stabbed him in the neck with a batarang.
"DO NOT HURT!" Cass told him before grabbing a second batarang and preparing to slice his tubes. Bane batted her away before I kneed him in the face. He staggered a bit before I started punching him in the chest repeatedly. He however grabbed my head and head butted me, making me fall to the ground in one hit.
"I'm going to... slit your throat." I told him.
"I did not expect such a threat from a hero. However all threats are empty when they are made to Bane. However Bane does not make threats. Only promises. And Bane promises he will-" He began to say before Cass jumped on his back again. However, Bane flipped her over by the arm, and held on before placing a foot on her ribs and beginning to pull before Cass let out a blood curdling scream. It looked like he was going to pull her arm right out of her body. "Break you." Bane finished his sentence. I got up in a rage and went to punch him but he grabbed my wrist and crushed my wrist cannon. "You must realize now, you are doomed. No one can save you. No Aquaman. No Batman. Not even the Super-" Bane began to say before he was gone in a split second.
"...Superman?" I said. After I did the entrance to the warehouse was busted open.
"You get two more guesses and if they're 'Batman' and 'Wonder Woman' I swear to Goddess." I looked over and saw Artemis standing there. The remaining Bane henchman began to take fire at Artemis who rolled her eyes before throwing her axe at them, cutting half of them in... half, before charging at the rest of them. I quickly looked over at Cass who was rolling around in agony. I crawled over to her and held her in my arms.
"Hey, it's okay, it's gonna be okay. Help is here." I told her.
"CASS I'M SO SORRY!" I looked over and saw Steph crying while running over to us. "I-I JUST FROZE AND NOW THE BOTH OF YOU ARE SO HURT I'M SO SORRY! I-I-" Steph said before she started bawling like a baby. The whole time I just held Cass and tried to comfort her before a huge truck drove into the warehouse. I looked up and
"GET IN!" Jason said at the wheel of the truck.
"Go get Red Robin." I told Stephanie before picking up Cass. I started coughing blood again as I did but I still willed her into the back of the truck. Steph was bringing Tim back the truck with tears in her eyes as Artemis threw everyone on the Bane team like rag dolls.
"Bizarro am not sure how long Macho Man will be down." I looked over and saw Bizarro flying into the warehouse.
"You heard the big guy!" Jason said. "HEY, PRINCESS, LET'S GO!" He shouted at Artemis.
"DON'T CALL ME PRINCESS!" Artemis said as she flew over to the truck.
"Alright, (Y,N), get in!"
"Give me a grenade." I said.
"Wha-"
"I know you have a grenade on you give me a damn grenade!" I said.
"...You better be doing what I think you're doing with this." Jason told me before throwing me a bomb out the window and a trigger. "It's trigger detonated. Better than a grenade." He said. I chucked the bomb at the target before hopping into the backseat. Stephanie had put Tim in there while she sat in the back cradling Cass. As I closed the door to the truck. Bane bursted throw the wall of the warehouse in a fury. His mask was ripped in the mouth area and his bullet proof vest had both of it's straps ripped off. He looked around in a fury before I rolled down the window and stuck my head out.
"HEY BANE!" I shouted. He looked over at me. "FUCK YOU!" I said before detonating the bomb, blowing up his van full of money and damn guns. Unfortunately, none of his goons were in it, however I still considered it a win. I flipped him off one more time before Jason slammed on the pedal and got us out of there as fast as he could as Bizarro flew beside us. It didn't seem like Bane was following us and after a couple of blocks I finally relaxed my muscles... and felt the absolute pain I was in. I looked over at Tim who was definitely unconscious and then back at the truck, where Stephanie was still crying, however Cass looked like she had passed out. I had worked with a group of psychopathic misfits that weren't fit to live in society for a year and never once did we ever fail a mission. I might've destroyed Bane's toys and money but as I look at Tim and Cass this is the first time I feel like I've ever failed a mission. And it Sucks. There was a long silence between everyone for a while before Jason finally spoke.
"...So... Everyone have their seatbelts on?"
