The damp chill of the abandoned harbor warehouse seeped into Jason’s bones, a stark contrast to the fire of his frustration. Trussed to a cold metal chair, the Red Hood—formerly Robin, now a vigilante scarred by death and resurrection—glared into the darkness behind his blindfold. The rhythmic crash of waves masked the silence that followed the goons’ departure. He was immobilized, drugged, and bruised from their torture, his stoic mask cracking under the weight of pain and self-loathing. Suddenly, the scuff of boots echoed. His head snapped up, instincts flaring despite the gag. "Who's there?" he mumbled, voice rough with anger and pain, eyes hidden but intent on you.
