Batman went flying down to the children, a tree braking his fall and his wrist.

Batman screamed in pain making Damian look, letting his guard down. Batman yelled for Damian to look out, but it was too late Damian had been tackled to the ground with curved, barbed blades holding him down.
The barbs stabbed into his skin every time he let his arms down slightly.

Hope sat on his legs, stopping him from kicking her off. She pulled out a large knife.
She watched the blood run off her Brother's arms and she watched him struggle and squirm in pain.

Damian managed to get his left arm close to the top of the blade, once Hope noticed she forced his arm back down the through the barbs as slowly as she could, watching Damian scream in pain.
Once his arm was on the ground again, Hope pulled the knife towards Damian's chest over his heart.

Batman tried getting back up to help his Son, but was kicked in the face as Talia glided down and watch her Daughter pull back ready to make the strike.

Hope raised the knife above her head as she smiled brightly. All of a sudden Hope was jumped on by a green lion.
She was tackled to the ground and Talia ran. Hope pushed the lion off and swiped at it with the knife, hitting the beast's shoulder as it collapsed and winced in pain.
Hope approached the beast as it's appearance changed to that of a boys. He sat there holding his severely bleeding shoulder while looking up at Hope, he smirked slightly.

Hope stopped and pulled out a gun pointing it at the boys head.

"What do you find so pleasing, you little shi...." Hope didn't have time to finish her sentence before being stapled to a near by tree, being knocked out cold.

................Several hours later....................

Hope woke up in a small room, she was restrained and unarmed.

Hope looked around the room, seeing nothing of great importance.
Her eye's darted to the door as it opened revealing 6 people entering.

The Titans, Starfire, Nightwing, Robin, Beast Boy, Raven, and Blue Beetle.

"Fuck off, peasants!" Was the first thing that came out of Hopes mouth.

"You sure we needed to do a blood test?" Beast Boy asked Nightwing amused and slightly smirking. Damian elbowed him in the ribs, death glaring Beast Boy.

"Though the evidence being shown is highly promising we still had to make sure" Robin said as Raven and Starfire got closer to Hope.

"Don't touch me Cretan's!" Hope shouted as Starfire and Raven reached out to her.
Hope gasped as she felt her restraints loosen. She looked down to see the cuffs that once stopped her from creating damage, now lying on the floor, her hands free.

Hope was forced to her feet, and glared at her Brother.

"You have brought shame to the name Al Gual, (forgive me if it's spelled wrong) Brother!" Hope blurted out. The team looked at Damian and back to Hope as she stood up shoving Starfire and Raven out of her view with Damian.

Hope stepped closer and produced a knife from behind her.

"We unarmed you, how is this possible?" Starfire asked flying forward but being put into a head lock with the knife to her throat.

"Yes, you unarmed me. But what of yourselves?" Hope said smugly with an evil smirk striking her face.
Nightwing gazed at the knife. It belonged to Starfire.

"Kori! I thought I said no weapons in here!" Nightwing cried, a little annoyed that he wasn't being listened to.

"My apologizes Dick, I thought it would come in handy" Kori said innocently.

"Well it has, Kori. For me" Hope said while stepping back.

"Let her go!" Nightwing spat as he stepped forward.

"Let me go, and she will be spared" Hope said flatly. Hope pulled the knife closer to Kori's neck.

"I don't think so! AZARATH METRIONE ZINTHOSE!" Raven shouted from behind. Much Hopes dismay, she'd completely forgotten about the semi-demon behind her.

The spell made the restraints that once held her come back and drag her to the ground, dropping the knife and Kori.

Hope became pined to the floor, the cold metal making her bare arms tense at the touch. She hit her head, hard, but not hard enough for any real damage. She could feel the air being drained from her body as she tried desperately to catch her breath in the ever tightening mess of chains surrounding her body.

Dick ran to Kori and helped her up, instantly grabbing knife from the ground. He turned to face everyone.

"Did anyone else bring in weaponry?" Dick was directing the question towards Damian. Both Damian and Blue Beetle put a hand up. Nightwing gave a small sigh. "I guess you can't really help it your case, can you Jaime?" Nightwing asked the blue armored hero. Dick then turned to Damian and held out a hand in frustration. "Hand it over"

Damian handed over his katana and turned away to the girl struggling on the floor, making scratching noise's as she squirmed. She looked so much like Talia.

Jaime looked at the green skinned Beast Boy standing next to him. Beast Boys eye lids scrunched shut with his hands pressing against his ears as he gritted his teeth and made small whimpers.

"Hey Gar, I know the sounds annoying, but it's not that bad" Jaime told his friend.

"You're not the one who has dog like hearing" Gar said before he collapsed to his knees as the scratching became louder. (I don't know about you, but I'm cringing while writing this part. I hate that noise)

Jaime looked over at the blue eyed girl who was apparently Damian Sister, she had a smirk lacing her lips as she continued to scrape the chains against the floor for the shear porpoise that it was it was putting Gar in pain.

Raven made the chains tighter as Hope just lied there, amused she torturing someone. She eventually passed out from oxygen deprivation. She was still and quiet. Raven made the restraints as they were when they walked in. Hope gasped in a large breath as air filled her burning lungs again, she coughed and took rapid breaths but still didn't make any efforts to wake herself just yet.

Damian stepped forward and crouched down next to Hope. His gaze went from her to his arms, that were now bandaged up but blood still seemed to seep through creating crimson patches on the white fabric.

"She looks like her" He mumbled sadly, hoping no-one would hear. Dick caught on quickly and ushered everyone, but himself and Damian, out of the room. He walked over silently and sat down cross legged next to Damian.

"Wow. A Sister. Didn't see that coming"
