Batman holds out his forearm for superman, Superman stares at it for a second. It seems with the sudden interruption from Lois and the mentioning of Martha and Sarah, Batman has come to his senses. Superman accepts Bruce's hospitable gesture. For the first time their hands weren't at each other's throats, rather clasped together in a friendly manner.

"Luther," Superman grunts to a standing position, "He wanted your life for theirs. They're losing time," He manages to explain.

"The scout ship seems to be drawing power from the city. It's got to be Lex," Lois warn looking between Batman and Superman.

Bruce's turns to Superman and says, "I'll find them-" Superman looks down at the placement of Bruce's hand on his chest, "My mother and girlfriend needs me," He tries to leave, but Batman stops him.

"Wait," He says sternly, pushing Kal back. Batman takes some deep strenuous breaths, "I'll make you a promise," Bruce began, "Martha and Sarah will not die tonight,"

Clark searches Bruce's eyes and finds truth in what he says. Superman gives him a slight agreeing nod, Batman reciprocates.

Batman enters the Batwing and takes flight.

"Master Wayne," a familiar voice interrupts the quiet moment.

"Alfred," Bruce acknowledges.

"Uh, I'm sorry for listening in. But I've tracked the Russian's phone to a warehouse near the port. You're locked on to it,"

"I don't deserve you Alfred," Bruce mumbles into his comms.

"No sir...you don't," he comments in return.

Batwing shoots off, towards the coordinates.

Martha breathes in and out anxiously watching Anatoli lighting the flame thrower, he turns to one of his henchmen and whispers, "Bring the girl here, I'd rather kill them both at the same time,"

Anatoli turns his attention back to Martha, "I'm afraid, this is goodbye, goodbye for both of you. And everytime we say goodbye, you die a little,"

The steel metal door opens revealing a disheveled Sarah. She briefly gets a good look at Martha before the henchmen, that were sent for her, kicks Sarah to the ground.

Now, on her hands and knees, Sarah turns her head towards the man that forced her to the floor.

Sarah's expression turns dark, the longer she stares at him the angerer she gets. Fear never strikes the henchmen, he believes the collar around her neck makes her powerless and weak.

A loud roaring engine and Beaming headlights interrupts the commotion inside. The whole floor shakes. With everyone's attention at the window, Sarah takes this time to surval her surroundings.

Sarah's comes sweeping her leg up into the henchmen's stomach. He succumbs to the pain, clenching his stomach. All heads turn towards the yelp of pain, only in time to see one of their colleges fall to the floor.

Several gun's pointed in Sarah's direction. After hearing the guns cock, a smile appears on her face. Martha jumps after hearing the first shot ring out. Sarah fails to move, she trust that her suit would protect her, and it does. The bullet that was meant for her heart fell to the floor after hitting her suit.

With one swift movement of pulling her hands apart, the cuffs that were holding Sarah's wrists together fell to her feet.

Anatoli frowns, "How?" he questions.

     "Strength, isn't one of my powers, it's in my blood,"

-✦-

Batwing circles the warehouse, finding a place to land wasn't going to be easy. The watchers began to fire their machine guns, but the bullets weren't able to penetrate it's thick haul.

"You have to take it, Alfred,"

"Ah, right. Commencing drone mode...Thermal images is showing me?" He pauses, and says, "that's odd-"

Alfred gets cut off, "What is it, Alfred?"

"There seems to be someone engaging the hostiles on the third floor,"

"That must be Sarah," Batman Cringes.

"Why don't I drop you off on the second? Let her get her anger out before she turns it on you,"Batman ponders for a second realizing he almost killed her boyfriend, "Good idea,"

Several gun's pointed in Sarah's direction. After hearing the guns cock, a smile appears on her face. Martha jumps after hearing the first shot ring out. Sarah fails to move, she trust that her suit would protect her, and does. The bullet that was meant for her heart fell to the floor after hitting her suit.

A man charges towards her. His fist hurdles towards her face, However, she saw it coming from a mile away. Sarah wraps her arm around his complete entrapping it. She shoves him forward, ever so slightly, before twisting his arm causing him to flip over her shoulder.

     "Stop it!" Anatoli yells, "Or I'll kill her," he trains his flame thrower at the back of Martha's head

"Stop it!" Anatoli yells, "Or I'll kill her," he trains his flame thrower at the back of Martha's head.

Martha cries.

Breathing heavily, Sarah. The last henchman left conscious indecisive on where to put his weapon. He could either aim it at Sarah, or turn it towards the door, where everyone can here gunfire, grenades and henchmen groaning in pain.

Upon crashing in the wall, Batman wraps his arm around the man neck grabbing the Weapon in his hand and pointing it at Anatoli,

"Drop it," Bruce stared him down, he watches as Anatoli pushes the flame thrower closer, nearly hitting Martha's head, "Believe me, I'll do it,"

"I believe you," Batman Fires the weapon at the flame throwers canister.

Sarah's eyes widen, flames escape the canister. She made the instinctive decision to hurdle her body towards Martha. Freedom lands on top of Martha, just in time for her suit to block the explosion.

Freedom stands, breathing heavily she turns to the Bat, "You could have killed her,"

"Hey," Bruce backs up, surrendering his hands, "I'm a friend,"

"Well I should bloody hope you are. What did you do with Superman?" She question.

Martha listens in, also worrying for her son.

"Nothing. Clark, is fine,"

Freedom looked at batman liked he had two heads, "You figured it out,"

"-Just like I know your name is Sarah,"

"And I know you're Bruce Wayne," Sarah smiles at his shock, "I can spot a billionaire in a suit of armor any day of the week,"
