Fear

Selina Kyle raised a single brow at the pair before her. It was a odd sight to the women. This massive man with a petite beauty at his side? Selina was skeptical.
The thief had her run in with the familiar women. Selina could see the compassion in the women's eyes. The compassion and adoration was for the man hovering over her protectively.

"Cute couple" Selina purred.

Londyn cocked her head squinting at Selina. Londyn wondered if she was on some sort of drug. She peered up at Bane.
Bane stood unfazed by the Cat Women's remark. He seemed rather bored to Londyn.

"Why are you here?" Bane asked his mechanic voice humming.

Selina flinched reflexively from Bane voice "I want to make a trade" she stated.

"I can sense the desperation"

Bane automatically took a step forward deciding to crack Selina's skull. The women was boring him.

"How dare you show your face to me"

Selina gracefully took a step back. "Wait" panic rushed through her.

"I can give you what you want" a slow smirk played on Selina's lips.

"I do not desire any-" Bane was interrupted by Selina's words.

"I can give you the Batman" she said quickly.

Bane raised one brow. His interest suddenly peaking. "A bargain?" He asked.

"I walk" Selina stated.

Bane mused over the women words. Selina betrayed Daggett. But Daggett was dead nonetheless she tried to be a curious and stupid.
Curiously killed the cat Bane mused.
Bane placed his hands forward causing the women to tense.

"Very interesting"

"I'm giving you what you want" The desperation was clear in her voice "It's a fair trade"

Bane could not resist to gaze down at the girl next to him.
Londyn bit down on her lip. A nervous tendency Bane noticed.
Suddenly green eyes met his gaze.
Bane looked away.

"I will inform my men of our compromise" Bane slowly said.

Selina ears perked up. "We have a deal?" She asked.

"Certainly" Bane nodded his head.

Londyn whole body seemed to tense In that very moment.
The scene before her was slowly unravelling.
Bane was seeking to destroy the Batman.
But why? Londyn wondered. Destroy the dark knight what will that bring?
Power.
Of course Londyn realized.
Londyn met the brown eyes of Selina Kyle.
The women looked satisfied and yet terrified. Londyn couldn't blame her.

"Bane-" Londyn interjected on a whim.

Bane instantly turned his gaze to the girl glaring. Londyn huffed out a sigh and gazed away annoyed.

"How did you get mixed up in this kind of business?"

Londyn met Selina curious gaze. "Did he
kidnap you? I just don't see you staying willingly" Selina scoffed.

Londyn raised one shoulder "Eh sort of" she said sheepishly.

Selina lips raised her lips into a devious grin "You got yourself a keeper" her gaze turned to Bane.

"Enough" Bane stated more calmly than expected.

Simultaneously both women pressed there lips together tightly. Bane lips twitched at the sight.

"We have a deal" Bane repeated. "Barsad will infrorm you when you will bring the Bat" his lips formed in a pleased smile.

"Gotcha" Selina said. She peered up at Bane nervously for her bold statement.

Bane eyes crinkled and he stretched out his hand.
Londyn tensed beside him. She couldn't bare to witness him killing another being in front of her.
As sick as that sounded.
Selina jaw clenched and her hand began to shake slightly.
Bane waited patiently for her hand to meet his.
Selina sighed dramatically and took a step forward clasping her hands in his.

"I must advise you" Bane said. Selina felt his grasp tighten. She felt unbearable pain "Betray me again and I will break you"

Selina gasp and pulled her hand away.

"Also do not leave town Ms Kyle"

Selina shivered as she comprehended his words to her.

Her express was controlled immediately "Why of course" she said dryly.

Selina turned on her high heel. She shot Londyn a smirk "You take good care of him" she winked and stepped into the shadows.

"What the hell?" Londyn muttered crossing her arms tightly.

Bane lips spread into a smile and now allowed himself to meet the girls curious gaze. Londyn met Banes gaze with a smile

As Selina crossed the rooftop she glanced back and stopped midway.
Bane. She gawked.
He too held the adoration in his eyes and that shook Selina.
And that is when Selina worked a plan to escape Gothem and dodge Bane's wrath.

Selina Kyle found Banes weakness.

"Kill the Batman?"

Londyn tripped in the darkness as Bane stalked away from her.

"Bane" she steadied herself against the wall "I don't think you understand. You can go to jail"

Laughter escaped his contraption. The girl was to amusing for Bane. "Do not worry about unnecessary things"

"But Bane" Londyn began

Bane halted in his steps and felt the girls body collided into in his back. Bane slowly turned around to face the girl.

"Do not fear" he brows furrowed.

Londyn sighed and rubbed her cheek. She could not help but fear. It was not fear for herself but for Bane. She feared for him.

"I strongly disagree with your actions" she raised her chin. Always challenging the man.

Bane rolled his abnormal eyes. "You are a child"

"I'm twenty freaking four !" Londyn snapped.

Londyn suddenly froze and cocked her head "What is the date?"

The date and months did not matter to Londyn while she was kept in the tunnels.

"Tomorrow is the eighteenth of September" Bane informed her with furrowed brows.

Londyn expressed a sadden smile "I'll be twenty five tomorrow" she informed him. "That is not the age of a child"

Londyn suddenly hysterical pushed past Bane and walked deeper into the tunnels.
Londyn calculated the math mentally.
Five months and seventeen days.
Spent with Bane.
Londyn scrunched up her face. Then her thoughts were clouded with the images of her family. Especially her neurotic mother.
Tears escaped her eyelids. Her family probably imagine there daughter was dead.
Bane to Londyn was not the worst man she ever encountered. Murdering and plotting to kill a hero aside Londyn was blinded by the rescuing. Time after Time Bane was the one who saved her.

"I will keep saving you" rang through Londyn ears.

She winced slightly playing the words in her head.
She missed her family and friends in Chicago.
She missed her freedom.
She wanted to move to Vermont as she always planned. Londyn missed her life.
The dorms door was in view. But Londyn instead leaned onto a wall covering her eyelids.

"What is wrong?"

Londyn flinched from Bane as he voice was inches away from her.

"You shouldn't do this" she shook her head. Londyn pressed her palms deeper into her eyelids. "The outcome will be horrible" she mumbled.

"How?" Bane wondered.

"It's sort of a gut feeling" she shrugged.

"Someone will die" she stated and felt her heart take off in her chest.

"Do not fear death. It's natural"

Londyn slowly peered up him incredulously "Of course but not when it's forced"

"Why are you crying?"

Bane hand brushed against her wet cheek.
It was complex to Bane to see tears.
For he never express such emotion in his existence.

"I am emotional" she shrugged defenseless "Birthday blues"

Bane brows furrowed deeply "What?"

A laugh escaped her lips from his confusion. Bane cocked his head and smiled behind his mask.

"Can I try and change your mind?" She whispered meeting his gaze.

"Absolutely not" Bane stated stalking away.

"I'm going to try" she called "Im not giving up"

Londyn watched amused as Bane stalked away and slammed the door behind him.
Her mind was set. Londyn was determined.
Londyn will try with all of her might to stop Bane from destroying the Batman.
