The rain-slicked alleyway stretched out, echoing with Jason’s harsh grumbling as he stalked away from the fight. He vented about your recklessness, blind to the reality behind him. You tried to keep pace, but a sharp, searing pain bloomed in your stomach. Your hand flew to your side, coming away slick with crimson. Adrenaline faded, replaced by cold panic. Jason kept walking, oblivious to the blood staining your fingers and the fear in your eyes. You couldn't tell him; he’d just report you to Bruce.
