I bit the inside of my cheek, and glanced at the ground, closing my eyes. With a deep breath, I opened my eyes and looked back at him,

"(Y/N), please tell me," he said as he leaned in closer.

I leaned back and closed my eyes again,

"Ra's Al Ghul has found me..."

"How can you be so sure that was him!?" Liam raised his voice slightly as he wanted to yell, but didn't. He knew that he'd startle me or the public around us.

"Those were his men, plus that Joker wasn't real, the heat signatures could've been a phony," I explained as both boys gave me a questionable look. I rose to my feet, and brushed off my knees. I could feel myself start to overheat, so I took off my mask and took a deep breath in.

"But what if it wasn't Ra's?" Hayden skidded over to Liam and I, as he looked at me in the eyes. His dark, yet bright eyes meeting my (E/C) ones, as he held a confused look.

"It has to be, there's proof that the Joker broke out of Arkham, but there's no evidence that he left the island. So he's out of the picture of suspects. Harley and her little gang were down below fighting my brother, so they're out. Riddler wouldn't attack like that, Hush would definitely not attack like that, along with any other criminal, so..."

I leaned my head on Liam's shoulder, feeling drained from flying all over. I felt myself yawn as my eyes squinted shut. Hayden continue to look at me as he pointed a finger.

"Yes, but you see, there's no evidence that the Joker escaped on his own. He escaped, but he could've had someone else get him out, but the only one crazy enough to do that is either Harley or Ra's (if he needed him for something). Harley clearly didn't because of those two's fight. And well..."

Liam's head, that once rested on top of mine, lifted up as he walked away slightly from me, in deep thought. He held a finger under his chin as he paced around, until he spun around and glanced at me, "He plans to use the Joker against you, and as a way to manipulate you!"

"Because of the accident months ago..." I said under my breath, but loud enough for the others to hear.

"Exactly," Hayden said as he rejoiced with his conclusion, while I stared at the ground. My eyes traced every piece of rumble below as my mind became empty from thoughts. I didn't know what to think of it. Ra's wants my power, but he can't have it. I'm basically the Demon's Head on crack...but...

"Oh my God..." I looked back up at the boys, both of them snapping their heads towards me as the sound of sirens were heard in the background.

"The reason Ra's wants me is because-"

"You're the actual Demon's Head." A deep voice bounced off the walls of the Alley we were in. It's origin unknown as we all gathered together in a circle, facing the outside. I readied my energized fists, as I scanned the street for someone. Liam grabbed his recently new red and white katana and drew it in front of him. Hayden pulled out a few random devices and machines he had in his pockets (all of which, i don't know what they are).
