Pt. 3: Guilt
Third POV
A figure jumped from one building to another, it was Nightmare and she was bored out of her mind. As she strolled at the side of the building, behind the mask were pair of black orbs as a part of it was clouded by the past.
Flashback
"Come on, you're going to be late!" a rather childish voice came, making the playful Robin turned to her. "Wait up!" it was as if they were made for each other, but it was all in the past...
"Be careful.." she muttered as she looked towards the older man's black cape, he turned around before petting her head "We will, little Rose.." Rose, it was one of the nickname Batman once gave her, it was her sweet attitude that could turn deadly, just like a beautiful rose that was filled with invisible thorns.
"Hurry up!" another childish voice could be heard, as the young girl turned, it was her best friend that had waved his hand towards both Batman and at her. She waved back, she was worried about what would happen to her dear friend but she knew he would return safe...even with a few bruises...he will keep his promise..
Flashback End
Tears fell down Nightmare's cheeks as she dwells to the past, she shook her head. Even as she slowly losing her sanity, she couldn't help but feel like the past had helped her to be a normal sane person she used to be.
"What's wrong little kitten? Dust in your eyes?" her head shoots up to meet with Red Hood's white lenses. She got up and looked away, not wanting to face the man she just met a few days ago.
"Yes, what are you doing here?" she manage to keep her voice from cracking, as she turned towards her new so called partner. "Just taking out Black Mask's goons, wanna join me?" he leaned closer to her as she lightly pushed him away.
"Sure" she spoke as both of them begun to sprint towards Black Mask's office. "Wanna barge in, or kill from here?" he asked as he took what looked like a bazooka. A smirk appeared on her lips as she muttered "Both.." this took Red Hood's attention as he blew up Black Mask's office, once again.
Nightmare took this chance and glide down towards the office using her wind manipulation and landed gracefully. The sound of fire flickering and boots stomping was the only thing that echoed through the burnt building, Black Mask manage to survive as his eyes widen upon seeing Nightmare's figure within the flames.
"What the hell do you want?!" he said as he shoots as her, but before the bullets could get to her, Red Hood came and shot the bullets before it even hits her. "Hello Roman.." he spoke as Black Mask begun to pale upon seeing Red Hood's presence.
"I did what you want! What else!" he shouts as Red Hood took the survived man and hanging him by the windows. "I want you to go to hell..." he muttered the last word with voice filled with poison and coldness.
Red Hood took the shot, he let the collar go, it won't kill the man but it was enough for him to know who runs the city..
The red masked man turned around, to see a frowning Nightmare "What?" "I told you would let me kill him.." she said as he chuckled, "He will but not now, little kitten" he muttered as he wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her close before running away from the crime scene.
"Put me down.." she hissed as they landed on a building. "What? Scared of a little height?" he purred causing her to whip her scythe at him, thankfully he dodged it. "I don't like being touched..." and that certainly took him by surprise, he placed his hand beside his head in a defeat motion as Nightmare walked away from him.
He was about to apologize but she had already disappeared, he never felt this feeling before...
The feeling of..guilt..
