As if fate itself wanted to test their mettle, a rocket spontaneously fired out the window.
[color=00aeef]"That fucking idiot! MOVE!"[/color] Damocles roared at her, which in a millisecond confirmed to her that he was aware and need no help. 
In a fluid movement she reach in, took the grappling hook and fired it at the next roof. But while she was swirling through the air, it happened: the rocket changed direction to the exact location she was heading. Not just a rocket, but a ficking homing missile.

[i]Think, think, think! [/i]She thought to herself.

Batwoman had only the smallest of moments, when she reached her destination, and as the missile caught up with her, she used every ounce of strength to move to the side.
The rest happened in slow-motion. The thing flew right next to her face, past her and exploded a few meters behind her. The orange bubble of fire and death burned brighter than any human eye could endure. Then came the shockwave that hit her like a moving train. Before she could blink the massive force lifted her up into the air. And only now did she feel the unbearable heat reach her in a painful embrace.

Suddenly a dark figure rushed in, as if gravity and time did not exist to him. When she finally got the time to blink, they were both standing further down the roof, hearing the sound of the explosion still happening. Both were they breathing and in one piece. Batwoman stumbled, but found her footing and a new breath of air. She only needed a second to figure out what had just happened.
The speedster, Xane, was not exactly a model citizen and yet…
[color=f7976a]“Thanks,"[/color] she sighed.

In that moment, the doors of the factory opened and out poured a swarm of people.

[color=f7976a]“Black Mask’s men are retreating. The sheep trying to escape the wolves, just as expected."[/color]
There was a certain satisfaction in watching something finally go as planned. A small army, that Bane would now never own, flooded into the nearby streets. However, as the cowards reached the pavement something happened: Another rocket flew up from the crowd and hit a parked car that turned into a ball of flames.

[i]What? Why would …[/i]
And then it hit her. Bane's men were hiding amongst the fleeing crowd. This was how his lieutenant planned to escape: Have his men mingle with Black Mask’s and have them cause as much chaos as possibly. A simple yet effective trick in battle.

Batwoman grabbed Xane by the shoulder to emphasize the danger of the situation. [color=f7976a]“You see those in black clothing? Slightly military-types? They are not with the rest, who are simply trying to flee. They are there to cause havoc and to distract us from Bane’s lieutenant. This distraction is about to cost a lot of innocent lives. Don’t let them.”[/color]

A hollow sound of an engine starting came from the factory.

[color=f7976a]“Go!” [/color]Batwoman shouted and shot out her grappling hook just as a monster truck busted through the backdoor and drove out into the night. It was the lieutenant, Trogg, she had been waiting for. She swung down, just barely slammed into the roof of the car, and the fight was on…
