Fear

Londyn pushed the door closed and leaned into the door with her hand over her mouth.
Bane and Miranda Tate she allowed herself to process the possibility.
That is when Londyn began to hyperventilate.
Londyn defiantly questioned Bane motives toward her now.
Eliminate? Londyn thought.
No I won't allow that. She quickly rushed in the bathroom and locked the door behind her.
Londyn fumbled around searching for clean clothes. Shorts and a shirt were spotted and Londyn undressed and stepped in the shorts.
She picked up the shirt and without realizing the size Londyn pulled it over her head.
It was Bane shirt.
It smelled like him.
And it was a dress on Londyn.

"Son of a bitch" she huffed.

Londyn did not want to be in his shirt. She didnt want the shirt to cloud her judgement.
But the shirt felt so comforting.
Then the thought of Bane seeing her in his clothing might throw him off.
Heavy footsteps were heard in the room. Londyn scrambled to the shower and turned the faucet.
A light knock on the door had Londyn clutching her chest.

"Bane?" She called.

"Why is the door locked?" Bane asked through the door.

Londyn never locked the door.

"I'm just showering" she called back. Londyn turned the faucet and walked over to the door.

Londyn unlocked the door and peeked her face through the door.

"Yes?" She asked peering up at him.

"I want to talk to you" his abnormal eyes turned dark.

Londyn nodded pressing her lips together. She opened the door wider and stepped out.
Londyn realized this was the moment Bane will "eliminate" her.

"Is that my shirt?" Bane said bewildered.

Londyn took no time and picked up the nearest thing. Which was a chair.
She threw the chair and the chair broke against Banes raised arm.
Londyn ran to other side of the bed.

"Eliminate me?" She shrieked.

"Miranda Tate?"

Londyn pressed her hands on the bed leaning on to it.

Bane threw the broken chair in the middle of the room. He turned his attention to the girl.
Bane stepped forward. Londyn eyes squinted and shook her head slightly.
Her gaze landed to the open door.
Londyn jumped onto the bed.
She scrambled making her way toward the door. But not surprisingly Bane threw her against the pillow.
Bane took ahold of the girls ankle and pulled her toward him.
Londyn ignored Bane as he bent his face to her. As the pair were inches apart Londyn could only imagine how his lips would feel against hers.
She shook her head banishing the thought.

"You were eavesdropping" Bane stated.

Londyn nodded fixing her gaze to her left avoiding his eyes. "Yes"

"That's very unfortunate"

Londyn shook from Bane words. "That it is" she glared.

Londyn shifted herself and collided her leg into his chest. Bane sighed and placed his fingers through her hair.

"Londyn"

Londyn met his eyes and began to cry.
Bane pulled away uncomfortable at the sight of the girl crying.

"Londyn" he said again and gently placed his finger on her chin. The girl broke her sobs to stare at him with wide eyes.

Bane eyes crinkled at the side and thought of her being so vulnerable.

"I just want to talk" he stared down at her intently. "I have no plans on killing you"

Londyn wiped her eyes and gazed up at him. "Do I have your word?" She whispered.

Bane winced at her words. "Yes" he found himself saying just to stop her crying.

Londyn smiled slowly "I'm sorry I threw a chair at you"

Bane chest rumbled and his gaze fixed on the broken chair. "I was very fond of that chair"

It took Londyn a moment to realize Bane was teasing her. Londyn smiled pulling her knees to her chest.

Bane tried to calm himself.
He was now in a tough predicument.
Bane was protecting the girl against her wishes.
Londyn watched as Bane seemed to grow more perplex as the moments grew.
Londyn cleared her throat causing Bane to snap his attention toward her.

"So.." Londyn began gazing around "Miranda Tate is now a mercenary?"

Londyn met Bane gaze.
Finally she thought another women at his side besides me.
Londyn ignored the jealousy but instead focused on what she heard.
It was as if Miranda was giving orders to Bane. Londyn cocked her head staring internally at him.
Another women..
Londyn froze and peered up at him.

"You're the protector"

Londyn met the abnormal blue eyes. Bane leveled his gaze and inched his face toward her.

"What makes you so sure?" Bane wondered.

Londyn wasn't sure of her accusation. She closed her eyes for a moment to regain her thoughts.
When she opened her eyes she found her courage.

"You are Miranda Tate's protector"

Then it finally miraculously dawn on Londyn.

"Miranda Tate is Talia Al' Ghul"

And as she met Banes eyes. His abnormal eyes held the secret that she just broke.
Then Londyn knew she was speaking the truth.
Bane was apart of Talia.

Bane leaned in closer to meet Londyn wide gaze.
With shaky fingers she place her fingertips on to the contraption.

The girl never realized that Bane was her protector now. As she was Banes redemption.

Londyn took a deep breath and whispered

"You can finally trust me now"
