Across The Worlds ⊳ Peter Parker

68 | IN THE SHADOWS

NAYARA SIGHED FINALLY getting a tracker that worked on Sharon. Using the Batcomputer and its system was something else. It was something that both Bruce and Alfred thought it will be a good idea. She hadn't answered Peter's call.

Her plan was simple, get back into the Marvel world and get answers. She just needed help from Batman to keep track of Sharon. She didn't trust anyone else to stand their ground.

"It will do you good, return to your world." Bruce said to her as he came out of the shadows. It was early morning and Nayara was full awake, the nightmares getting more aggressive, almost as if Queen Saphire was now closer than ever.

"Trying to get rid of me? It isn't easy." Nayara joked, seeing Alfred help Bruce with the suit. He was clearly with some injuries which weren't a surprise by now. Especially not to her. "I finally put the new tracker on Sharon. I need you to keep an eye on her while I go and drop off Spider-Man off to his own world. He real name is Peter and we...it's complicated." Nayara said to him.

"Going off world, I see." Alfred said to her as he placed everything when it needed to be.

"Something like that." Nayara said looking unsurely at Batman. "I heard the League of Shadows is back in Gotham." Nayara mentioned to him.

"And how will you know about them?" Bruce asked her.

"I know." Nayara said lightly thinking of Thalia Al-Ghul and she shivered. "You sure your hand wouldn't be full?" Nayara said to him.

"We will manage." Bruce informed her. As Alfred left he approached her. "You don't seem to happy returning back." He said to her.

The brunette looked ahead at the screen. "I...It will mean that I have to face Steve's death and a world without him. It's not something that I want to do personally." Nayara said.

However the piece was broken up by the sound of a motorcycle speeding inside the cave. The two of them turned around to spot a pool of blood passing next to the motorcycle. "Dick?" Nayara whispered as she ran out to help him.

But Richard Grayson AKA NIghtwing, wasn't the one hurt. The person he was holding was. "Red Hood." Nayara muttered as she saw the red helmet that was split in half. Dear God, Jason. Nayara thought."Are you okay?" Nayara asked Nightwing as she helped him with Red Hood.

"I am fine." Nightwing reassured her, but he questioned how she knew of Jason Todd's identity.

Bruce called in Alfred as they placed the body on the infirmary. The brunette clean her her hands and put on gloves as Nightwing removed the kevlar. She saw the injuries which weren't deadly but there was clear blood.

As quickly as she could Nayara and Alfred helped patch up Jason Todd. Nightwing just stood, seeing how Alfred mentioned what Nayara had to do to help out. She knew how to do stitches because of Steve.

. . .

Nayara was quiet sitting next to the bed where Jason Todd laid, his face still covered by the mask. She knew how secretive the Batfamily was, and for very good reasons. Plus, she was too.

Jason Todd began to stir in his sleep before sitting up. The brunette snapped her head towards him. The young man raised his gun towards her and she raised them. "You are in the Batcave, Nightwing bought you in. Bruce is busy but he will be back shortly. My name is Nayara Lilly." Nayara said raising her hands.

"He picked up another stray." Jason said to her lowering his gun now. He had heard the name before from Richard, whom he had told him about Sharon Carter. All so he could run surveillance on Carter.
