DK-Verse: Batcave?: On the Road Again (and Again)

[bat-daughter.livejournal.com]

Great.  One moment she was in the Nexus--having previously been in a Gotham more than three hundred years in her future--the next she's in the Batcave.  Only... it's definitely not her Batcave.  Some of the souvenirs were off, for one thing.  And, well, she just had a sense about this kind of thing.

Truth be told, the more she examined it, the greater the differences became.  No giant penny, no mechanical dinosaur, no old Robin and Catwoman costumes stored in glass cases, no Batmobile--at least not that she recognized...

She was definitely far from home.

Another person flew out, but she too was unconscious, and then silence fell inside the room.

Helena tensed, ready for more. Silence did not necessarily mean the bad guys were all finished.

Something stirred, followed by a thump.

"Do you have ties?" asked Pru as she bent over the man who'd been playing possum and bound his hands.

Helena approached, pulling something out of her utility belt. "I've got Bat-Cuffs."

The catwoman lifted her head and looked, then tossed her a bundle of what appeared to be long plastic things that doubled over, fed into a slot and locked.

"And once again, I'm out of date," she muttered, but went to work anyway at getting the ties set on the others Pru had knocked out.

"It's a different world, Huntress," Pru reminded her gently, then carefully kicked another possum player in the head and rendered him insensate.

Huntress nodded to show she understood. Different world are not, it just really seemed like she was way too many steps behind wherever she went.

She did, however, catch a stealthy sound behind her well before the alien could strike.

She spins quickly, driving a roundhouse kick toward its head.

The Weequay ducked and came up under her leg, intending to grab it. It was plain that he was a skilled fighter. But it was equally plain that for some reason he'd underestimated his opponent.

Maybe it was the other guys hurrying to join the fight.

Four against one? Hey, this might be a fair fight!

Helena pushed off with her other foot, turning the kick into a flip that got her some distance. She closed it just as quickly, ducking another another blow and landing an uppercut on his jaw, even as she tried to keep track of where the others were.

Two, a second Weequay and a hulking Rodian, attempted to circle around behind her, while two other Rodians watched with their expressionless faceted eyes and waited for an opening.

She was ready for them, lobbing a pair of batarangs over the Weequay's head, so that they'd swing back around and catch him from behind. For the Rodian, she dropped low, turning into a spin kick to try and knock him off his feet.
