3 Days Later
Leona's POV
I am failing.
I am failing my own Mother
I haven't captured that pathetic boy in the cape
I haven't obey her orders
I haven't made any progress besides only stabbing him, and saving him
I laid on my back on the couch, as she calls it, my hands folded behind my head. I stared at the stained ceiling above me. What the hell is there to do around here!? A thought came across my mind, of how I so easily trusted Selena. I made so many more mistakes in three days here, than three weeks with the League...
Flashback
"So What's your story, we all have one"
"My DNA was fused with a Jaguars when I was young, I'm a trained weapon, Made to kill, trained to kill, not a very fun childhood"
The Feline examined her claws for a bit, taking in there sharp features, man they were dirty...
"Any family besides your mother"
Leona took a breath before answering another painful question, even though she didn't show her pain.
"I never knew who was my father was, Mother never told me, and I have a half brother"
Selina walked over to Leona, hesitantly placing a hand on her head. Leona was in shock for a few seconds before letting a soft purr out, causing the Catwoman to laugh softly.
Present
I remembered how gritty my claws were, just another perk of being a cat, spending hours to clean your nails, note the sarcasm.
I looked at the slightly open window, a small breeze flowing through it. It was dark currently, and Selina doing her 'Night Job', which I found out soon was meaning she was currently in her Catwoman form.
Speaking of Selina, does she have any food
I sat up from my position, hugging my knees to keep balance. I yawned, my tongue grazing my canine teeth, where fangs laid instead of human teeth. My arms released their hold on my legs and I jumped up from the couch.
The kitchen was small, but adaptable, especially when your flexible. I opened the refrigerator, squinting my eyes at the bright light that engulfed the dim, small apartment. A foul, yet intriguing scent emanated from the refrigerator, rotten fish. Also inside were, from the looms of it, other spoiled foods and nothing of interest. I began to search the cupboards, finding nothing....
"Cereal, can't eat that. Protein bars, too thick and not in my interest, Fish, wait"
I peered at the small tin can. "Tuna" I spoke. Extending a claw I slide it across the top, slicing through the metal top. The Pop of it opening made me grin. Something about the familiar feel of slicing made me happy. Mother said it was called animal instincts, part of the Jaguar DNA. The smell of Tuna made my brain go crazy, my eyes began to change to Amber.
I took a fork from the sink, not caring about Hygiene, never have much. A loud purr echoed through the apartment when I took one bite of the small dish. I hadn't realized I was that hungry, for the past three days I've been turning down most food Selina have given me. 'Takeout' as she calls it couldn't compare to Tuna.
"What the Hell"
I couldn't have eaten it that quick, could I. I only just started. With a sigh a threw the fork into the sink, and placed the can on a counter.
I Walked over to the cracked window, opening it fully as the night breeze flew by. Taking one foot over the window and on the fire escape I made my escape. The night air continued to blow softly as I jumped onto the rooftops.
I continued to leap building to building aimlessly, not losing balance once. It's been about less than an hour, I guess this building will have to do as a resting place.
I sat on the roof of a large mansion and brought my claws out. Grit and dirt were tucked deep at the base of most claws, disgusting.
I turned my hand over, the palms facing towards me. Taking my other claws I softly scrapped the loose dirt, watching as they fell onto the roof, and some on my hand. Now that, that was done I let my animal instincts take over. My eyes softly glowed amber. I used my fangs to gnaw at the base of my Claws, sharpening and cleaning them.
A Scent
Great, just when I was almost done with the first hand....
Metal, Rubber, or Cloth, Spandex?, Human, is that some fear or uncertainly, maybe anger, is it Birdm-
The Scents got stronger, so I stopped the Cat side from smelling more, whoever it was, was trying to sneak up on me. My sharp ears just picked up their footsteps faintly, they stopped, what imbecile is trying to sneak up on me now.
"I know your there, show yourself" I demanded, not turning. There was a soft sigh, in defeat most likely, and the heavy footsteps continued towards me. Silent to human ears, yet I heard them stop behind me. "This is privet property, I suggest you leave".
I faced the imbecile, glaring, Damnit! I forgot my hood!
The figure was, The Hell!? Intimidating, yet idiotic. Who goes around dressed as a giant Bat. Hey Bat, ever heard of pants!
I crossed my arms, looking at the Batman with cold grey eyes. "If this is privet property, why are you here, Isn't that trespassing" I inquired. His glare hardened, making a sly grin appear on my lips. He didn't even flinch, No look of disgust or fear. "To rid of you". His gruff voice seemed to get deeper, and supposedly scare me more. A small pout formed on my lips, "Aw, I was having so much fun, grooming my claws". I exposed my claws, and began to examine them. "Just looking for a certain Robin, A idiotic Robin in a bird suit, yeah him, What's with people and going out as giant animals" I continued, Not looking up from my claws. As much as I hated Selina's riddled way of speech, it came in handy to stall time, I honestly would've slit his throat if I had too.
"He's Right here"
I retracted the claws and looked up, great....
Time to stall, "Round Two Bird Boy, I thought you would learn after the first one" I taunted. The Batman switched his gaze to the Bird Boy's. I Noticed the small stitching on the chest of his suit, he must have the scar still. "Robin No" The Batman growled. The Bird Boy glared harshly back at the Batman, that's a lot of glaring. "This is my fight Father, this Cat Girl deserves to have her head hung" Bird Boy used the hand with the katana in it, gestured in my direction. Please, if Mother didn't ask me to kidnap you, you would've been dead long ago.
Their heads turned in my direction, one cold gaze, with curiosity under it, and another surprised one, with anger, and amusement? Oops, did I say that out loud.
I lowered my body stance to defensive, keeping my legs wide and part from each other, hissing loudly and extending my claws one again. Bird Boy did the same, yet holding his katana right in the middle, making it look like a sliver of silver.
"Robin"
"She deserves this, to feel every organ in her body burning"
"Robin"
"Don't try to stop me, She'll be dead before you do"
A small smirk appeared on his face, and as quick as it appeared it was gone. Bird Boy ran towards me, holding the katana to the side, most likely to swipe to the side. I stood still, my limbs anticipating to jump. As he came, swiping to the side as I anticipated, I jumped, Using both of my feet to kick his chest, Pushing his body to the ground. I watched as Bird Boy grunted and put a hand to his chest, Since as soon as I made contact with him I flipped over and tumbled away, I saw. There was the sharp sound of something being thrown, just like training. I turned around, my back facing Bird Boy and now facing Batman, catching two bat shaped boomerangs, one in each hand. As soon as I did, they begun beeping madly, That's not good. Smoke clouded my vision, when the two boomerangs exploded. Damn Cat senses, smoke also filled my nostrils and lungs, Don't Breathe, Don't Breath, God Damnit. I fell to my knees, gasping for air, my lungs slowly began to burn, Great, Just Great. A large boot, I guess, kicked me from behind. I fell onto my back. The Smoke slowly was clearing now. A heavy mass was on top of me now, pinning me down, not in a romantic way either. One hand had both of my wrists pinned together, while a pair of legs held me down. I pried open my eyes to only look at the masked face of Bird Boy, who placed his katana at my throat, applying pressure slowly. "It's always a joy to kill scum like you" He spat, applying more pressure on the blade. A slow smirk grew on my face as I began to speak weakly. "Same Here". I took my legs and pulled them close to me, using the gap Bird Boy provided from using his legs to pin me down. Before he could react I kicked him, square on the chest again, a weak spot. Bird Boy, actually I should start calling him Robin, Not the time. Robin Fell back, onto his back, his knees propped up. I quickly got up, using my knees to pin down his feet as my body hovered over him, once again, not in a romantic way. One arm was securely on the ground, while the other rested on his cheek. I took any claw and jabbed it into his cheek, light enough to merely make blood flow. Taking that claw I trailed down his cheek, to his jaw, smirking as blood dripped down onto his hood. I reached for his katana, that was miraculously arms length away. I got it, grinning at the deathly sword. Slowly standing I held the blade over my head, Yes, finally... The grin only grew as I prepared for his blood to spill. I let out a cry as the katana sliced through the air.
3rd Person
Batman seemed to just watch the whole fight, like his son said, it was his fight. But when that sword almost made contact with Robin, he went into action, kicking the young girl to the side, watching as the katana skittered across the rooftops, clanging against it loudly. Leona rolled over, she grunted and laid on her side. Her long bags covered her face.
The young Robin was unconscious from blood loss. Batman lifted his son in his arms, bridal style. As soon as he turned, a certain cat leapt onto the roof, with sympathetic eyes she did the same for Leona who had passed out also, from the hit she took from the Dark Night, and the energy she used.
The Lioness squinted her eyes, not recognizing the black blob and not caring. "I need to find my brother" she slurred in a hushed whisper, before passing out once again. Both Catwoman and Batman turned, facing eachother, and thinking the same thing.
"You think they-"
"I don't know, I'll scan the DNA, but if they are-"
"Meet me at the rooftops next week Brucie"
"Selina you do understand the importance of that neither of them know their identities or locations"
"Of course, you can trust her, underneath all that rage is a young girl who wants to please her master"
"Her Mother-"
"Treated her like a weapon, a pet, Like I said, either way you have a habit of picking up strays"
"Selina-"
"She proved she isn't just the weapon she's trained to be ever since she saved your Bird, Under that Hood, she's just a mislead girl on the path of darkness"
The Catwoman turned her back to Batman, beginning her journey back to her apartment. Batman looked down at his son, staring at the scar that traveled down to his neck.
"Can the Robin trust the Cat, or is he tempting fate"
