It's in their DNA| Prologue part 2/3: The unwanted child
Warning: dark fic, lots of stabbing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At an island, somewhere in the Caribbean Sea a babies' cry could be heared.
Which was quite odd as the inhibitors of the island were villians and most of them weren't even responsible enough to take care of a baby. So how was it that there is one, who looked no more than a week old, crying their lungs out on the shore of the island.
"You're looking at the thing as if you've never seen a baby before," said a voice behind Ubu, "I hope that wont stop you from silencing them."
Without facing the voice he knew so well, he answered," I know what a baby looks like its just... how is it still breathing?" "Ugh I dont care about that, just make it stop crying." Said Talia as she marched down to where Ubu and the baby was at.
That's when she understood Ubu's comment, there was a hole in the bundle of blankets exposing the child's stomach. That hole, Talia realized should have been a stab wound, so wheres the wound? The only thing she saw instead was a dark substance around the exposed skin, and she was positive it smelt like blood.
When Talia swept the damp hair out of the babies' face, the baby stopped crying.
"Stab it," commanded Talia.
Ubu did a double take at what she said, but followed her command. As quick as lightning, Ubu whipped out a blade and looked at Talia before plunging the blade right where the child's heart is at. He left the blade in the child and watched as the child's chest stopped rising and saw crimson spreading out on the blanket, where the knife still lay.
From the corner of Ubu's eye he could see Tilias shoulders slouch right as she turned around and walked away. Ubu was still near the now dead baby looking for something that he didn't know.
He sighed as he pulled the blade out and cleaned off the blood using the babies' blanket and then went to follow Talia.
When Ubu caught up with Talia, she was lost in thought as she walked towards the hidden doors.
"I thought that for a moment the child could have been ..."
Talia snorted, "when you put it that way it sounds impossible. Humana are all the same. Easy to kill with our many weakness and I had thought the child might have had an ability to heal itself and keep getting up."
"If something like that ever does exist it wouldnt be-" Ubu was interrupted when a child's cry cut through the air.
Before each of them knew it, they were both running towards the crying child that they both presumed to be dead after getting stabbed in the heart.
As they both reached the scene the baby was crying, if possible twice as hard then they were before and it was definitely alive. But this time there was two holes in the blanket, both exposing skin.
Talia quickly picked up the child and hushed them to be quite, of course once the baby was picked up, they stopped crying.
"Would you look at that," said Talia as she looked at the child, already planning their future. _________________________________________
When Talia and Ubu presented a baby to Ra Al Ghul, he was skeptical about his daughter's claim of the baby not being able to die.
Of course that all changed after witnessing the aftermath of Talia stabbing the baby at their heart and taking out the blade. Ra could see a gold-like whisp at the damaged skin as it healed itself together, at a slow rate and then the baby breathes again.
So he decided that she would be put underground with the other kids who have great promise of being a future weapon. Except the baby has to be isolated from the other kids and be worked twice as hard because of her ability.
Ra didn't want any word of an unkillable baby to reach the justice league so he would be having his personal and trustworthy allies to train her.
If Ra plays his cards right this small thing could very well destroy the justice league when they least expect it.
"Father what are you doing?" Asked Talia, as she just got done dropping off the baby underground.
Her father turned away from the computer to address his daughter, "I'm looking at the information about the child you found and erasing all data of her." "Oh?" Talia questioned, "what exactly did you find father?"
As Ra moved aside Talia saw a nun being stabbed by a dark haired women from behind. Then as the nun crumpled to the ground the women quickly grabbed the baby before she, too hit the ground.
That's when she saw the women's face. Its Magdalene Kyle, the younger sister of Selena Kyle which is the poor excuse of a cat burgalur trudging around in Gotham.
Then the videos were clips of Magdalene appearing and disappearing from the shadows until she appeared around Gothams harbor. At an edge of the dock, Magdalene stabs the baby right in the stomach and pushed her into the water. Then Magdalene looked around herself and dissapeared in the shadows of Gotham.
"She didnt want the child," said ra, once the video was over.
"How was the baby able to come back to life?" Questioned Talia, "As I remember her husband was human."
"I'm trying to figure that out," answered Ra, "what I know is that the child, (y/n) was in her stomach when Black Mask tortured her and her husband. which shows y/n had those powers in the womb or else Magdalene would have had a miscarriage."
"She didnt want her," Talia murmured as she still looked at the, now blank computer.
Ra looked ar his daughter, hoping that was not the only thing she heared from his little speech.
"And as far as I can tell nobody else knows of the child's existence," said Talia as she smirked at her father," nobody would be looking for her and shes going to be a perfect weapon."
Soon enough all videos of (y/n's) existence was wiped out, making (y/n) Kyle nonexistent and all data of her, forever lost.
