“NO!” Robin screamed as he awoke.
Becca stirred beside him and woke up.
“Robin! What's wrong?”
Instead of answering, Robin brought her into a long, passionate kiss. Becca responded instantly and then pulled away.
“What's wrong?” she asked again.
“Nightmare.”
“Aww! What about?”
“You...died! I couldn't do anything! I thought I Lost you!”
Becca went into his embrace. Never had she seen him look so lost, so weak and helpless. She soothed his hair as he cried into her neck, hugging her tightly.
“Shh. It's okay. I'm right here. I'm alive. No matter what. I'm right here.”
Robin stopped his crying. He gave her another long kiss and fell back onto the bed, holding her close. Becca snuggled closer to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. She closed her eyes as he slowly fell back into sleep, still keeping a tight hold on her. Becca smiled and pulled a black rose from her pocket. She sniffed it and smiled again.
“Silly Robin. It was no dream,” she whispered. “I almost died that day. But a sudden wave of magic kept us together. wewe see, this bod maua, ua is not ordinary. It's magic is unique and activates on love. I was carrying one that day. Had it in my pocket.” Becca placed the maua, ua on the nightstand, cuddling back with Robin. “You loved me so much and wanted me to live so desperately that it allowed it's magic to heal me. And here we are know. Thank wewe love. Without wewe I'd be lost. I'd never be here now. Thanks for loving me. And thank wewe for believing in me. And to think. I never would have been here had it not been for that black rose.”

Revenge watched. The Shadow placed something in the drawer and began to close it.
Revenge jumped down and kicked him in the face. The shadow fell to the ground. Revenge pinned him before opening the drawer. The body was disintegrated, an acid ate through the flesh, muscles, bones, everything. Revenge collected a sample before he saw the grenade.
It was a timed grenade. And the timer indicated ten sekunde before detonation.
"Shit!"

"I don't wanna die!" the boy howled, digging his face into Revenge's knee.
"You have no say in the matter."
"I do." Revenge growled.
The assassin turned his head slightly before tossing a kisu in Revenge's direction. It caught him in the chink in his armor. Literally. Revenge glared at the blood seeping from the wound. The black clad assassin continued his approach. Revenge punched him in the throat, crushing his windpipe, causing the man to stumble backwards.
"You wanna play with knives?" Revenge yelled. "Two can play at that game!"
For a second, the assassin couldn't breathe. Then, he stood up, rubbing his neck.
"No way." Revenge muttered, stepping back.
"Red Revenge. For interfering with the mission, wewe too shall feel the talons of the Court of Owls!"
Night of the Owls.
Coming Soon.

For a moment, Revenge was pressed against her in the narrow hallway in complete darkness. Then, there was a light, from Revenge's mask, and the hallway was lit in a dim red light.
"Ladies first." Revenge said.
"Scared?" Batgirl asked.
"Funny." Revenge said. "I'll take point."
Barbara cut him off. "I'LL take point." she said.
"I've got the light." Revenge said. "And the armor, and the brains."
"Har har, funny."
"Indeed. Watch my back."
"From the scary dark?" Batgirl asked in a mocking voice.
Revenge turned and tossed a dagger into the darkness behind them. It went farther than the three feet of the iron door through which they had entered.
"Any zaidi smart remarks?"
