The Red Hood frequented bars. She knew that. She already knew where he'd be. But it didn't exactly play out the way she wanted, but witnesses were inevitable, were they? Cassandra had seen his every lethal spots and could end this precarious situation. But killing was not her objective. It has never been for her. Cassandra opted for a direct kick to the chest, disarming him without any serious injuries. But then, curved and sharp blades pulled out of his gauntlets. With ease had he immobilized her, ready to end her in a swing of the arm. Had it been not for Dick Grayson intervention, she would've not last long. She held back though. Dick had understood it quickly. Jason didn't. Instinct and raw strength he was. A bit like her.
Tim, Stephanie and Harper had come too. They all settled down, taking a seat to the counter or walking around the bar. Cassandra took a seat beside Jason, listening to the conversation between him and Dick. She could hear his complaints about her barging in suddenly and interrupting his pool game. And the beer wasted. Beer. Cassandra leaped out of her seat quietly and silently, heading behind the counter. The girl grabbed Jason's empty mug and refilled it with beer from one of their large barrels. Setting it on the counter, Dick rose his eyebrows slightly. The two men glanced at her a little oddly as she quietly sat down again beside Jason.
Jason: "Huh, thanks..."
He said, and she nodded in return. This girl sure was a mystery to all of them...Soon, they had to go to the Batcave due to Harper's wounds opening again. Beside, she needed a safe place to heal. So they left, leaving the bar in a messy state.
To be continued...
