After fully recovering, Helena received special training. This training was about taking on multiple opponents simultaneously. Bruce, Selina, Damian, and even Kate contributed largely to this training regimen.

"Try again," Batman commanded.

Helena pushed herself out of a puddle of her own sweat. Her pink and white Tee and gray sweatpants were drenched. She panted heavily as she looked at her father. "Okay." She slowly brought her body into her fighting stance.

"You sure you don't need a little break?" Catwoman inquired.

"Mom, I'm fine." She expressed tiredly. "I can keep going!"

"You look like you're about to fall over," Robin commented. "You don't need to prove anything to us. We know how talented you are. Take the break."

"No!" She growled. "Let's continue."

"Fine."

Robin charged at her, pushing his fist towards her chest. When his fist connected with her arm, he followed up with a low kick.
Staggering from the impact and due to her fatigue, she barely managed to launch herself into the air and flipped over him.
Before she could fully recompose herself, Batman swung in with a kick. With her guard up, he pushed her back.

"Let's show the boys how it's done, Kate." Catwoman smiled.

"I was about to say the same thing!" Batwoman smirked as she dashed for the little girl.

Surrounded by her family, Helena dropped to the floor and swept her feet under them.
Before her feet got to him, Robin pushed her forward causing her attack to be stopped.
Batwoman followed up his attack with a light sidekick.
Batman threw his fist at the girl before she could recover, launching her directly into Catwoman's kick.

Caught in a frenzy, She struggled to hold her guard. She was subject to their constant attacks until Catwoman's whip knocked her across the Batcave.

She pushed the floor but was unable to move. She had reached her limit. "I'm not... done... yet."

"Stay down, Helena," Robin demanded. "We don't need you to be in the same condition as last week."

She winced at the mention of last week. "But... I can still..." She started.

"You're resilient and stubborn if nothing else." Batwoman joked, taking off the mask. "But now it's time to get rest, kiddo."

"I guess I can't win." She grumbled. "You guys are all suited up and you're really bringing the pressure."

"I'm sure your enemies will also bring the pressure." Catwoman smiled. "You did well though. You were able to keep up with us for the most part."

"We've been doing this for a long time," Batman remarked. "You stood your ground and gave it your all. You lasted longer than I expected and that's worth some recognition."

"Thanks, Dad."

"You're welcome." He smiled as he took off his mask. "Need some help getting up?"

She nodded slowly. Her body was numb and sore. She felt irritated by the clothes that stuck to her.

"Mom, can you help me take a bath?" She asked after being scooped up by her dad.

"Sure, no problem." Selina smiled as she secured her suit in the glass case. "Damian, go run a warm bubble bath for your sister and then go check on Alfred to see if he needs anything."

Bruce handed Helena over to Selina and began to take off the suit. "Kate, you staying for dinner, or do you already have plans?"

"I'm staying. Alfred is making my favorite soup!"
