The Robin I needed

The Boy Under the Mask

Damian's POV:

I'm getting my ass handed to me by a girl. All these moves are just mine and Batman but quicker and more advanced. How does she know these moves? She knew my next moves as if we have fought many times before this. She seemed as if she could read my mind. But the real question is why does she want to kill me?

I receive a strong blow to the stomach by her foot and hit the wall at the end of the hallway. She stands at the other end of the dark hallway with something shining in both hands. the dim light hits the objects and I notice that they are daggers. She walked over with no emotions showing or any pain from when I was able to lay a few hits on her. As I try to get up a striking pain from where she hits me makes my arms and legs give out.

She comes closer to me not backing down or having second thoughts on what she was about to do. She hovered over my limp body and looked at me in my masked eyes. Those green demon eyes look so familiar showing pain, suffering, anger, and frustration. The anger she held inside her caused her pupils to grow and shrink the green in her eyes away until it looked fully black. Why can't I remember who had these eyes cause I know it can't be her or can it.

suddenly she finally spoke up again saying, "I'm sorry..."

Realizing what was going on I snapped back into the present, she raised the daggers up about to strike and let her arms fall about to pierce my chest. I close my eyes and wait for the pain that was suppose to happen a few seconds ago. I felt a gust of wind, a pain on the side of my face, and the sound of glass breaking. I open my eyes in surprise to see Batman standing in front of me and the girl on the ground in a pile of shattered glass. I get up swiftly standing next to Batman.

"Are you ok?" he asked still looking at the girl laying on the ground.

"Yeah. I'm fine." I feel a sharp pain on the side of my face and put my hand to it. Putting my hand into my eyesight I see bright crimson blood covering the tip of my middle finger. I also notice my mask is missing and look at the ground trying to find it.

The sound of the girl grunting in pain as she army crawled her way toward the open window. I look at her to see a thick piece of glass lodged inside the side of her knee and as she stood up against the wall for support I saw not only her daggers in her hands but also... my mask.

She looked up and scanned at my face looking at ever detail. Her demon green eyes opened in surprise at what she saw and I was a lot more shocked to hear what she said after seeing my face and who I really was.

"Damian...? You're the Boy Wonder? You're Robin? This can't be.... I have to kill you?! I can't do it..." the girl in black said.

Demona's POV:
I struggle to stand up while using the wall behind me for support. I look down at my hands to see a streak of blood on the dagger in my right hand and to see the dagger and something else in my hand. It was a ripped mask.

Looking up at Robin I saw his whole face but my eyes were attracted to his deep blue ocean eyes. They were calm but shocked at the same time, fear was deep within them too. His skin was smooth and tan, his face was round but his jaw line was strong, his cheekbones were perfectly toned, his thin lips were a light shade of pink, this nose was a bit bent as if it had been broken once or twice, and the cut on the side of his face that was just made by my dagger.

I know him... That is the kid from school who always tried to be nice to me and help me out even though I rejected him and was mean to him evert time. Finally finding the courage to speak after the shocking discovery I said, "Damian...? You're the Boy Wonder? You're Robin? This can't be.... I have to kill you?! I can't do it..."
