In the plane

Ras was fed up.

"Get this plane back and landed now, or your heads will decorate my front lawn!" he near snarled from where he hovered anxiously over Brenda, working to keep her alive as his jet raced for his hideout.

"We're going as fast as we can, sir," one said. He snarled at him, and the soldier took that as his cue to leave and stepped out.

Ras turned back to Brenda, hard gray eyes softening as he stroked her hair.

"Hold on, fair one, you'll be saved soon enough," he murmured.

There was no reply save the hiss and swish of the breathing machine. The woman on the bed was still, showing no hint of the battle she was putting up to live.

He closed his eyes, trying to will her to hang on.

"Sir, we're approaching the base. We will be on the ground in five minutes," a soldier told him.

"Get out," he snapped. "And make it three."

The heart monitor faltered, the peaks and valleys growing shallower.

"NO!" He bellowed, jumping over and starting to do CPR.

"Sir?" One of his followers looked inside.

And the brainwave monitor began to falter.

"Get the plane down now, have all doors and passages to the Lazerus pit open, do you understand?"

"Yes, sir!" The door banged shut again.

As soon as the Jet had landed twin boots hit the floor running, Ras carrying Brenda alone.

The man sprinted through his lair, as he'd instructed all the doors were opened.

Finally he reached his sacred room of healing and health.

Kneeling by his bath he lay his loved one in, closing his eyes as it hissed and bubbled.

"Come on, Brenda, you're strong," he murmured, placing her all the way in.

"Wish I knew this place better." Mornbein scowled as she led Batkid and the little girl Robin through the portal. She cocked her head and listened, then smirked and jogged for the door, bare feet soundless on the marble floor. "C'mon."

Bree turned and looked at Batkid, her face sullen and dangerous behind the mask.
