Bethany's POV:

I jumped down, just like I had done a thousand times off of the roof of my house. I landed and then forced myself into a roll to keep the momentum. I ended up rolling all over shards of glass and pieces of splintered wood. My back was definitely going to be scraped up after this. I made a mental note to ask Robin to teach me a better way to jump off of two story buildings.

I used the momentum of my roll to bound back up and grab an unsuspecting Bane right at the neck.

My heart started racing extremely fast from nervousness, fear, and excitement.

I wrapped my legs around Banes upper torso and held the strongest choke hold I could do on him. He struck around trying to hit me, but I just held on tighter. Did Bane feel bigger than before? I did my research on him before we came, and it said that he could pump himself with venom to make himself stronger. Did he already do that? Because it felt like his shoulders were growing and jumping underneath me. I looked down to see that a yellowish red liquid was pumping through the tubing in his suit. Oh shit.

Before I could think of a way to destroy it, two burly arms grabbed me from behind and flung me across the room and into the wall. I hit it with a crack and collapsed to the floor, my cape billowing over me.

I looked up, the room shifting and tilting around. Was the room pulsing black and fading out, or was that just me? My head must have hit the wall. I looked at the wall and sure enough, there was a dent from where I had hit it.

"Huntress!" I heard someone yell my name. I think it was Robin, but I couldn't tell because there was a ringing in my ears.

Someone tugged me to my feet. Robin.

"Move!" He yelled in my ear. He grabbed my hand, familiarly, and tugged me away. I blindly ran with Robin, looking behind me in time to see Bane crash into the spot that we were just standing on. We ran back towards the others, but suddenly, Robin dropped my hand and collapsed onto the ground next to me with a groan. The next thing I knew, I was joining him. I clutched my temples and curled up in a ball, rolling back and forth. The whole room spun and tilted and I couldn't think about anything except the pain in my head. It stopped.

I looked up to see a grinning Psimon and behind him, Bane barreled at us. Time moved slowly. I looked straight into Bane's bloodshot eyes and realized that he wasn't heading for me. He was heading for Robin!

"Robin!" I screamed. He was still on the floor, rubbing his head, oblivious to the 200 pound boulder about to crush him. He looked up at me slowly, not processing what was happening. Bane was only ten feet away. 7 feet. He jumped and leapt into the air and was about to pound Robin when something knocked him aside.
