"Whoa." Tim snorted as he looked at the expression on Barbra's face.
"Can you not look happy that we just got our asses handed to us?" He asked. Barbra tried not to blush but it was kind of hard since the butterflies in her stoma...

Dabria was easy to track. Her suit still had it's GPS tracker in it but that didn't give Bruce cause to celebrate. "She's taken it out before. The fact that she hasn't done it now is... Unnerving." Bruce had said before they all took off after her.
"Just let me talk to her B. I can help her." Tim had said as they left the cave.
"I'm not sure you can Tim." Bruce had replied. "Whenever Jason made up his mind about something, I could never change it."
"Dabria isn't Jason." Tim said but it was hard fro Barbra not to see the similarities in their narratives. Both orphans. Both picked up by Bruce. Both were hard headed, stubborn. One foot in the darkness and one foot in the light type of people. Both had even come back from the dead. According to Dabria and Tim, Dabria's heart had stopped when she took the Binding Stone and the only reason she hadn't left this world entirely was because Tim managed to resuscitate her.
"She's in Gotham Square." Bruce says, his voice pulling Barbra back to the present. She revs the engine of her bike and speeds forward to catch up with the Batmobile and with Tim's Red Wing Bike.
"She hasn't move in the last ten minutes." Damian said offhandedly.
"Is she waiting for him?" Barbra said. "He's never shown his face so openly before." Had Azrael said something to Dabria at some point? Had he told her to meet him in Gotham Square if she was ready to end their fight? Would Azrael actually show? There was only one way to find out.
When Barbra and the others reached Gotham Square they were surprised to see it empty, save for Dabria. Had she done something to make everyone clear out? Did she portal everyone away? That couldn't have been easy. She had turned to look at them as the batmobile and Barbra and Tim's bikes came to a halt by the pavement. She was just staring at them, katana in her hand. "I'm going to approach her. The rest of you be on your guard." Bruce said as he made his way towards Dabria. "Phantom!" He said. Barbra watched Dabria clench her jaw. "Enough of this."
"I'm sorry about this Batman but I can't work by your rules anymore." Portals began to form along the ground in between herself and Bruce but he adapted quickly, jumping and maneuvering around all of them.
