I was standing in a large circle with Batman and Nightwing looking at me. Nightwing had his arms crossed on his chest and Batman was looking at me with those blue eyes, looking demanding. I was very nervous because I didn't want to kill them. that was the last thing that I wanted to do.
"Not only is fighting physical," Shouts Batman, "But it is also mental."
"Sometimes," Nightwing butts in, "You need to get into your enemies head. Given your powers, you can probably do that."
"You can only do it with your race," my father said with annoyance.
"I can only do it with my race," I said, sounding more like a robot than anything. Batman shakes his head and comes closer to him. My father was telling me how love was a human emotion and that life wasn't about love. It was dragging me down. I was starting to believe him. How can Batman actually save me from this nightmare that I was in? There was no possible way that he could. I was an alien race that used fear and demons to control myself. How can you train something that was into the darkness like I was? I stood there while Batman came closer to me. I was nervous, I couldn't possibly hurt him. I was falling in love with the Dark Knight. Not because he saved people but the mystery of him pulled me in. His eyes showed something more than just a dark cowl and evil glares. It showed a human under that mask.
Who was he?
"Don't come closer," I whispered.
"You won't hurt me, Jasper."
"You don't know that,"
He stops and stands there.
"Take a deep breath," He said to me. I did as he had asked. Taking a deep breath and thinking about the evilest thing that I could possibly imagine. That's when I felt my Pandora's box opening. I saw the demons come out and latch onto my body. Now, I was wearing a black suite. I was hearing all the voices of my people in my head telling me what to do and it was making the anger worse. I can hear Batman's voice on the outside, he was close, very close but his voice somehow soothed me.
"Listen to your heart, Jasper. Don't listen to your mind. Your heart and your spirit are pure,"
"They want my soul," I growled, "They want the souls of the damned," I told Batman. He wasn't showing fear so my body felt normal for once. I was still mad and when I opened my eyes, which had been the first, I saw darkness everywhere. What I saw was the coolest but the scariest ever. I saw darkness, I saw their souls. Nightwing didn't know God, I can see it. I saw his soul and it was little. My body felt hungry though, he was weak. Then when I looked to Batman, his spirit was strong. There wasn't any darkness inside. He believed in God and he was strong, mentally and spiritually.
"What do you see?" Batman asked.
"Your souls," I whispered, "I'm craving them," I commented. This was strange, even for me.
"Like a vampire?" Nightwing asked. Batman shot him a glare and he put his hands up and indicated that he was going to be quiet. I looked to Batman and down to his chest where his spirit was, it wasn't only his spirit but I saw his heart. In the Bible, they said that sometimes people harden their hearts to the truth. His heart wasn't hardened. Of course, this wasn't his actual heart but his spiritual heart.
"I want you to ignore all thoughts in your head. Take in deep breaths." Batman whispered. I did as he said and really concentrated on it. My father was being harsh, cursing and hurting me. That's when the leaders of my planet started to hurt my body. I screamed, fell to the ground and coughed up blood. My body was aching in weird places, my nails digging into the cave floor. Batman came down and wrapped his arms around me, Nightwing came to help but Batman told him to stop.
"Jasper! Jasper calm down! Ignore them! Fight back!"
I wanted to so bad but they were too strong for me.
"I want you dead! You don't listen! You haven't done anything besides kill that deadbeat mother of yours!" My father hollered in my head, "You're the worst mistake of my life!"
My heart was breaking and it was becoming easier for darkness to fill in the cracks. I knew that from that night on I was going to change. Eventually, my father and his friends left and I was left there bleeding on the floor. My body was slowly healing and I didn't know what else to do besides fulfill my fathers wishes.
