When me and Alex are done talking and I didn't share anything about Damian, I gladly sit and watch the now bright stars out. I decide to practice a little more. I pull up the water and then I try to freeze it. I look. Up and I am successful. But now I am also very tired. I don't know if I'll be able to do the water walk back. But I'll try anyway. I stand up and am about to make my way back to the water. This place may be nicer than gotham, but I don't wanna risk it. As I begin to walk around the bend that leads to the steps down someone grabs my wrist. I fling my head around in fear. Damn I should have waited to practice at the tower. I wouldn't have been so tired. Their hand on my wrist frightens me. I look up and don't recognize this guy either. And suddenly I am pushed up to the wall."HEY!!!GET OFF ME!!" I scream he is startled."there will be no more of that." He puts hand over my mouth and I realize what he's about to do. I knew him in the crotch which gives me a second to turn and run. But that second isn't enough through his pain he managed to grab my hair and slam me into the wall. My head feels funny now. I probably have a concussion. Why am I so weak...oh yeah the water. I am so stupid. I feel the guy grab me by the neck and pin me to the crate again. I lift my legs and push into his stomach. Tears in my eyes. I feel him go flying back a bit. I stand up and run to the water attempting to concentrate which is successful as I run on the water. I make it about half way before I realize I can't do this much longer. I'm almost to the shore, and i know my wrist is bruised and my neck. The concussion probably isn't helping right now either. I make it to shore and I collapse to the ground on my knees hyperventilating. That...I can't believe that...I got away that's what matters...but he almost... I know I have tears streaming from my eyes. I bring my knees to my chest facing away from the water. I don't wanna use the water ever again in less there's no other possibilities. I sit there trying to slow my breathing which makes me feel like I'm dying. Or well suffocating. I stop that fast. Then I realize I don't want to be alone. I walk up and into the tower. I look for raven she's with Garfield. So I start to look for starfire and it doesn't go well the first few minutes and I lean against a wall to tired to keep walking. And put a hand to my mouth to try to stay quiet. I just want-. I wonder if damian is in our room right now. I stand and slowly with the help of the wall trudge to Damian and I's room. I don't want to bother him though if he's still upset. So I knock and there's a sigh on the tother side in frustration I think. I don't know if he will answer the door.And I slide down the wall. My hand still on my mouth. I choke back a sob. It wasn't loud but it was loud enough for him to hear. In a second the door is open and he's looking out. My pathetic form is sitting knees to chest hand clamped over my mouth. Wrist still bruised. It takes one more second before he is crouched in front of me."Umbra! What happened." He seethes. Is he still mad at me. I cry a little harder. I see his hand go towards my wrist and I pull away a little. That seems to startle him. I see hurt flash in his eyes. No...i didn't mean to...oh he's going to still be upset with me. He must be so angry. But in a sudden and swift motion I am being carried into the room. I don't fight it.
He sets me on the bed."Beloved I need you to tell me what happened." I sniffle." I'm sorry." He sighs."don't apologize beloved you did no wrong." I look down."you looked upset and left, I...I didn't want to be alone so I meet with Alex a the pier...and she had to go eventually. So I kept practicing...and when I got tired and decided to come back...this guy he he tried... I kicked him and ran off. Until I got to the beach. I didn't know if you were upset. I didn't mean to do the water thing. I barely understand how I did the water thing." I keep rambling and he stands up. I see him grab his katana."Damian, what are you doing?" I ask my voice starting to even out a bit. He looks back. And grunts moving to the door."Damian." He looks back."That man doesn't deserve to live." I look down feeling as though I'll be left alone again."Please don't leave me alone."I am suddenly incased in a hug. A tight hug as though to save me.i am practically crushed but I don't mind. It's comforting and protective as well as assertive and strong."I'm here." I don't know how to react I just cry." You're not alone I won't leave you."I hold onto him for dear life. That was scary for me. "Umbra, I love you." I just push my face to his neck. He just embraces me in the dark damper of our room."I wasn't upset with you. Those memories were unpleasant to me though." He is doing the sigh thing like when he's thinking."I'm sorry." I whisper. He keeps holding me. "Habibti, this is my fault." I shake my head"no it's not. If I wasn't so weak it would have been easy to get away. It's my fault I shouldn't have been pushing the limit and draining myself." He holds me tighter."you aren't weak."eventually after a long while of talking we go to sleep. I've gotten better with nightmares, when I have them I no longer act suddenly, I just sit there. Unmoving. But what confuses me is when I wake up it wasn't from a nightmare. This also happens sometimes, I'll wake up at random times in the night. I remember Damian telling me that it's my instincts, and that when that happens I should find why I'm awake wether it be a sudden small noise woke me up or I feel something watching me. I stay unmoving,y eyes open, I glance around the room, there are many people in here. What the hell. I feel Damian take a deep breath, most wouldn't realize it as off, but this lets me know he's awake. I tap on his chest in Morse code, again very unnoticeable."who" h feel him tap his hand that's under a blanket against my side lightly,"assassins." Oh boy," what do." He taps back " "attack...3...2...1." I process what he said and the second he taps 1 we both jump from the bed covering each other's backs.someone runs at me with an attack, I dodge to the side grabbing their hand and side kicking them in. The chest. I rip the katana from his grasp. He lands against the wall. I turn the the other 4 by my side. They do synchronized attacks. I am not used to their... but Damian has double the amount of people and he's doing alright...and he is the one who taught me much. I freeze my second in time taking a deep breath noticing the heart beats of all of them, mostly steady and the footsteps are so quiet. I know exactly where they are now though. I hear the wind change and I now they threw something...a Shuriken. I catch it between my fingers before it hits me. And then they charge. I throw the shuriken and it loved itself in the guys who threw its eye, then I use the katana and battle the two in front of me, I feel their blades, their attacks are strong and the form is great...but they're slow. As one is recovering to hit again, I duck down sweeping his legs, as I come up I elbow him in the chest, and grab his ears to pull his face to my knee. He's out cold. Then I turn to the other one who just ran his katana down my back, in an attempt to kill me. Shit... these guys probably lace their weapons with poison. I need this guy out fast then. I block his weapon with mine and slide between his legs, kip up behind him and tack eking him to the ground. I then pull the knife me and Damian keep under the mattress and stab his shoulder, close to his heart...but not on it."you missed." I shake my head with a smile."no...not really. I want this to be extremely painful for you. So I'm not going to kill you, I'm just gonna stab you as many times as I can. I bring the knife down into his other shoulder and I notice he grabbed a small vial, I try to grab it from his hands but he takes it and...no he's dead I think... I stand with a sigh. I look to Damian, he looks a little out of it.damn what are they saying to him. I run behind one and pinch a nerve, he seems relaxed enough for it to work. He drops to his knees taking deeper breaths. I take the opportunity to kick him in the face. That puts him out. The group with Damian splits and more run at me.i sweep two and they jump over lunging at me, I do a back handspring dodging . I need a weapon, I find it easier and considering I woke up probably 10 minutes ago I'm not all to awake. I run the rough the new group of 5... wait are there more of them. Shit. I do an aerial over someone trying to trip me. I land, ducking back from a round kick. I keep running a few more steps and unsheathe the katana that Damian gave me. As I do I see a couple of eyes turn to me. What... I hear one holler."how dare you wield a weapon of the al ghouls." In Arabic. I knew I got better at translating it. And faster. Damian and me still worked on it. I grab Damians and strap it to my waist, attacking through the crowed of growing assassins. I get to him and yell his name."Damian catch." I toss it to him as he appears a little perplexed in this situation. He notices it and catches the katana unsheathing it and fighting back again." Thanks Ya Habib Alby" I return back to fighting. There are probably 20 or so assassins in this room. I need to fend some off Damian and we need more space or we can't fight. He notices the glances around the room. He understands."NOW!!" We fling the door open and run down the hall into the elevator." Once the doors close, he looks to me."they are probably listening to us. They are only after us. When we get outside it's going to get bloody. I love you. Don't die." I hug him."what do they want." He stiffens."they were sent by my mother they want us to rule the leauge." Oh..."I though you said the leauge was destroyed." He shakes his head."my mother has been rebuilding." Oh...shit..."well be careful. Don't die." He nods."I won't. I hope you don't see me differently after this." I shake my head."that's mutual, I might do some immoral things out there." He nods. I kiss him hard, Then the door opens.
