A Fling Once Past [Jaina]

[Bruce Wayne]

Bruce hadn't gone far before he heard the door. It was probably Jaina, but why? Did she want to talk to him more? He went back the way he came and looked, but didn't see her, so he went to the door.

He was about to knock, but he listened. He heard more than one person inside. A friend, perhaps? There was probably nothing wrong with this, but it still was a bit odd. He just listened.

[Jaina Hudson]

They sat her down in a chair and another man taped her legs, while the speaker sat down across from her.
"We know you killed him." He said simply.
"I don't know what you're talking about, I honestly don't." Jaina said.
"Don't lie." He nodded to the man with the tape, and he gagged her, eliciting a surprised mumble from Jaina. "You just sit right there and wait. We'll be done in a jiffy." Three of the men began scouring her apartment while the fourth dragged to the closet.

[Bruce Wayne]

"We know you killed him."

Things didn't sound good. He touched the handle, making just enough movement to feel it locked. He needed to do this quickly. He put his shoulder against the door and pushed with all of the strength he could, pushing the door open. He quickly moved forward, grabbing a chair and swinging it towards the closest man.

[Jaina Hudson]

The chair broke into pieces, taking him out quickly, and the man near Jaina whipped out a switchblade holding it to her throat. "Move and she dies." He said simply.
Jaina was frozen in fear.

[Bruce Wayne]

"Ok, ok...," Bruce said, completely stopping, not even putting his hands up out of fear for her safety.

[Jaina Hudson]

"Why are you here?" The man with the knife asked. The others watched him, making sure he made no sudden movements.

[Bruce Wayne]

"I was here to visit Mrs. Hudson," he told the man, thinking. He had no good moves.

[Jaina Hudson]

"Search the closet." The man with the knife said to another, and he nodded, going towards the closet. Jaina's eyes shot wide, and she tried to get free, but was pinned back down.
"You just walk out, real nice and slow, and tell nobody. This is between us and the girl." The man with the knife said to Bruce.

[Bruce Wayne]

"And if I refuse to go?" Bruce questioned.

[Jaina Hudson]

"We kill you." The third man pulled out a switchblade of his own.
"Jake, relax. If you refuse to go, she dies." The man with Jaina said.
"Well, well, well. Look what we have here." The second guy dragged the mannequin bearing the costume White Rabbit wore.
Jaina froze. They found it. Now Bruce knew.

[Bruce Wayne]

He had only taken a single quick glance earlier, believing it to be her costume as a Playboy Bunny. Now he saw it for what it was.

Bruce had no moves. He wasn't sure what he could do.

[Jaina Hudson]

"So, you are that chick who killed Harper and Carter." The man said. Jaina shook her head violently, and managed to headbutt the guy, knocking him to the ground and the knife out of his hand. The other armed man charged toward her, while the second moved on Bruce.
Jaina went limp, slumping in the chair.

[Bruce Wayne]

Bruce span to the side, using a sweep of his arm to push the man aside in case he was too close. He broke into a run for Jaina, tackling the man from behind who went for her with the knife.

[Jaina Hudson]

The first stumbled and fell, and the second fell with Bruce, stabbing at him.

White Rabbit shot awake. Dammit, Jaina had gone and gotten into trouble again. She saw a knife on the ground and dove for it, trying to free her hands.

[Bruce Wayne]

Bruce barely avoided being stabbed. He grabbed the man's wrist and twisted it quickly in an attempt to break it.
