To Gotham by Midnight Part 4

LOCATION: Gotham Docks (Warehouse)

I climb on top of the high crates in the warehouse in order to get the high ground from up here I could see everything,

The warehouse looked like a giant maze of boxes and dead ends I try to ignore that 'dead' word but that's exactly what I will be unless I think fast,

 I keep low in the darkness as I watch the armed men scurry around the maze like lost mice

"Find her" Bane angrily orders his men they all share a anxious glance at one another as they didn't know who to be afraid of their boss or me. 

<I would vote me>

They all rush off in different directions to hunt for me little did they know that I am nobody's prey they will severely regret underestimating me.

One of the men soon reaches within firing range of my widow's bite he walked slowly as he nervously inspected around each dark corner,

 I sting him and he drops to the floor loudly I need to be careful my stingers although brand new need time to recharge after using so much power and the slight buzzing that they were giving off was a warning sign that they were near enough out of power.

The loud noise of the man collapsing to the concrete floor draws the attention of the last three men that were near by they approach their fallen comrade carefully, one of them tries to shake him to wake him up

"Get up" one of them says with an Australian accent, but they cannot wake him up there is enough power in that sting to keep him down for hours,

 I silently crawl in the shadows on the crates just above them I throw another smoke bomb down for some cover, but the men fire wildly in all directions as they cough and rub at their eyes, but I skilfully avoid the barrage of gun fire, 

"Some one grab her" one of them yells, "I can't see a goddamn thing!" 

I jump down and land feet first on to one of the men's faces and his skull make contact with the concrete floor making a nasty crunching noise, but that was just his jaw and nose he'll be fine,

<I think>

I use my grappling hook to pull the feet out from beneath one of the disorientated men causing him fall to the floor and drop his machine gum, 

I quickly kick it far out of reaching distance before any of the mercenaries can try and reach it 

I throw one of my sharp throwing knives at the other man who was firing at me it catches his hand the man screams in pain and drops his gun, but the two of them still wanted to fight me and I was more than willing to oblige.

I jump on to the shoulders of the man with the knife in his hand and use my legs to throw him at his friend the both fall straight through a wooden crate and they both wisely decide to give up

"Very impressive Romanoff, but let's see how you fair in a real challenge" Bane remarks from the shadows

Suddenly he steps out from behind me and twists the device on his arm allowing the Venom to run in to his system his already large stature grows substantially his muscles twitched as they quickly grew twice in size, but definitely not full strength still he most certainly has the upper hand.

I pick up a very sturdy metal pole from the ground and I swing it at his head hoping to make him lose control but the metal pole just breaks upon impact of his skull not good I stare at the broken pole in disbelief,
