Red Rain [Jason Todd]

.02

I stood on the roof then laid down, positioning the stand right. When it was perfect for me, I gripped onto the trigger of the sniper and aimed.

I took a deep breath as I saw my target in the window, three buildings away from where I was. Another drug meeting that no one was taking care of yet, so I guess it was up to me.

They were arguing for some reason, but I could put a quick end to that. And I did as soon as I pulled the trigger. All I needed was one, and that's what I got when the bullet went straight through the drug lord's head. I saw moving arms and all the men running out of the room in panic.

"Nice." A voice says and I turn around, instantly swiping out a pistol and aiming.

Red Hood put his hands up, "Hey, easy there. I was just complimenting you."

I smirked while putting my gun back and picking up the sniper. I put it on my shoulder while putting my hand on my hip.

"Yeah, I'm pretty good with snipes."

"I see."

"Was that your next target?" I ask, pointing over my shoulder with my thumb and he crossed his arms. "Yes, it was."

"Well, maybe you came a tab bit too late. You can still go chase after the scumbags I let get away, I was just sending a message." I smirk, walking pass him. I crouched down and started putting my sniper back in the duffel bag.

"I'm sure they got that message loud and clear."

I smiled, "Dido. So who else was your target tonight?"

"Just them, but now I'm free."

I chuckled as I zipped my duffel bag up and swung it over my shoulder. I saluted him with two fingers, "Well, enjoy your night, monsieur Red Hood."

"You never told me you were French." He says, grabbing my arm.

"Half. My Dad was, so I kept heritage." I reply, shrugging my shoulders briefly.

"I like it."

I chuckled and shrugged again, speaking seductively, "Well maybe I could teach you sometime."

"Why not tonight?" He asks and I look out to the city.

"You may have said you were free, but I never said I was. I'm a very busy girl, Mister Hood."

"I'm sure you could spare some time." He says in the same seductive tone, grabbing the buckle of my belt and pulling me into him roughly.

"Eager, are we?" I ask, raising an eyebrow.

"I wouldn't call it being eager," He claims, raising my chin, "Just really, really interested."

"I'm fun in all, but you didn't think I'm that easy, now did you, Mister Hood?" I pushed off of him, Izzy speaking in my ear.

"The Bat's searching for you. Told me to contact you. Meet him at Gotham Bay." She informs and I sigh. Not another one.

"Tell him I'm on my way. Shade out."

I grabbed the duffel bag and swung it over my shoulder again.

"Who is him?" Red Hood asks, crossing his arms and I smirked. "You're jealous?"

"No. It just would've been nice to know."

I patted his chest as I passed, "No, I just have to meet up with someone. We only meet on business occasions. Nothing more. Plus, I'm not looking for a relationship right now."

He grabbed my arm, "That makes me like you even more."

"And we can't even see each others' faces. What a shame."

"Maybe that would keep us from having any ties to each other." He says and I shrug.

"I guess you're right, but how else would I kiss you if you have that thing on your face all the time?"

"Kiss the helmet." He says jokingly and I smirk and do it.

I kissed his helmet like he told me to.

"Happy?" I ask, strutting to the edge of the building.

"Or I could've took it off like this."

When I turned around, he had his red helmet in his hands while a red domino mask covered his eyes.

"Wanna try again?" He asks, a smirk tugging at his lips.

"Yeah, but I can't. Business comes first. Have a nice night, Hood."

"You won't get killed meeting whoever you're meeting, right?" He asks and I wanted to laugh.

"I'm almost positively 100% sure I won't get killed by him...or anyone else in that matter."

"Sure about that?" He asks and I chuckle.

"You sure as hell couldn't kill me, if that's what you're saying-"

"I'm pretty sure I could've killed you last time I saw you-"

"That's only because you caught me off guard-"

"Then maybe you should've had your guard up-"

"Maybe if I knew you were there, I would have."

We were only centimeters away from each other by the time we stopped going back and forth.

"You made me waste time." I huff, scowling up at his masked eyes.

"And to think, we could've been doing something else."

I smirked and glimpsed down at his lips that I wanted to kiss. I looked away before I did though. The Bat...right.

"I seriously have to go. I'm already late." I say, running and jumping off the edge of the building, disappearing to go meet Batman.
