He wrapped his arms around her from behind, pulling her back in and trying to get a sleeper hold on her. He didn't want to do it while she was on the ledge, he wanted her inside first.

She felt the arms wrap around her and immediately figured it was the Ex League of Shadows member. She pulled against his grip, trying to wrench herself free. If she could jump down now maybe he'd have a tough time following. If he pulled her back inside she'd be in a really unfavorable position. She had to fight tooth and nail to stay on the ledge.

He planted his foot against the wall and pulled back to try to get her inside.

Alice struggled with all her might but Bruce was stronger. She still had control of her sword so she swung down, planning to slash his arms and get him to release her. She only needed a moment. If she could jump to the ledge beneath she'd have time to plan the rest of her escape.

He was forced to release her and dodge back to avoid the sword.

As soon as Alice was free she jumped to the window sill beneath the ledge she stood on. It was a good 10 feet or so but she made the landing. She turned around and looked up, seeing if the man was going to follow her. If he tried to jump down too Alice would originally have the advantage as he struggled to reposition himself.

He hurried and looked out, but didn't pursue. He wanted to, but he was having too much trouble.
Too much trouble shedding his identity like this, and becoming what he needed to become.

She watched and waited. When he didn't follow she continued her escapade down the building. When she finally made it to the ground she looked around anxiously. It was possible he had taken the elevator down and come to meet her outside. If he hadn't she would run home and collapse. She needed rest. She hadn't been this drained in a long while.
