Adrian left with Helena in his arms undetected, leaving no trace behind as any and all evidence were dealt with as he had no intention to clash with the heroes over their rigid principles ,not that he thought any of them could beat him.
With his bond with Kara and Raven Adrian didn't want to put them in a difficult position so if he was going to take out trash then he wasn't going to do it while letting others know.
With his skills it would be hard to find a better Assassin than him…..
…..
"Ugh!" Helena groaned uncomfortably as she opened her eyes and she sat up slightly and the first thing she saw was the person she saw before blacking out.
Helena felt relieved as she looked around to notice that she was not in the abandoned warehouse anymore.
Helena got up from the comfy mattress on the ground as she walked over to the person in dark armor as they sat on the edge of a ledge while looking over at the horizon….
….
"Thank you.." Helena said gratefully to Adrian who nodded at her as he contemplated what to do since he received another quest and knowing the content he couldn't reject it.
[ Help Helena Bertinelli get her revenge and prevent Amanda Waller's goons from forcefully constricting her into Task Force X. Due to her recent actions of killing several criminals and being framed by her father Santo Cassamento she is someone that seems ripe for the picking. The government is already snooping around Gotham to take care of Harley and Ivy whom they had marked as Potential recruits, with Harley being a deserter… Accepting this quest means there is a high chance of clashing with the government and you as an outsider would face repercussions in the form of Justice League ]
Adrian wasn't afraid of the league and he didn't think the League would fight him , and even if they did he was not going to lose.
Unlike before he had the power to help thus he didn't mind helping Helena before him, not to mention this was also tied to Pamela's safety….
…..
Helena didn't say anything else as she didn't know what to say as her saviour didn't seem that talkative.
She just continued gazing at the horizon deep in her thoughts wondering what to do as she was knee deep in trouble now, and it would be quite difficult for her to do anything as she has zero backing or resources in this city since the Bertinelli no longer commanded any presence in Gotham's criminal underground….
….
" Work together? " Helena was surprised at the proposition the person before her was offering.
" Yeah , I was going to take care of the Cassamento family anyways, Don't you want revenge? " Adrian's words made Helena stiffen as she took a deep breath to compose herself.
"Sure…" Helan said with conviction as she reached over to shake Adrian's outstretched hand. With his help maybe things would be much more easier….
….
"T-This …" Helena was utterly bewildered as they were just walking through the Cassamento family's territory while the armed guards in place didn't even react to their presence.
Helena just held onto Noir's arm as she feared that her invisibility would wear off if she strayed too far from him.
She was feeling very tense since they were in the middle of enemy territory but no one seemed to react to them.
Helena once again was awed by how simple today's events were from being nearly killed to walking headfirst into the territory of the guy who seemed like a huge wall she had to surpass.
And it was all due to this mysterious guy that showed up in her life just an hour ago….
…..
"H-Helena! How the heck did you get in here ?! Guards! Guards! " Santo yelled in fear as he gazed at the young woman before him who was looking at him with a chilling gaze as she aimed her weapon at him.
Santo didn't know how the heck she survived the thugs he sent after her, especially after she got shot two time , and now she was in his Mansion which was heavily guarded by armed guards.
"Aaaargh!!" Santo yelled in pain as he received an arrow to his thigh as a response as he fell to the ground.
Helena just gazed apathetically as the scene from her childhood flashed through her mind , the images that kept her awake at night for years.
Making her afraid to get into tight spaces as she remembered hiding under the bed while the assassins slaughtered everyone at sight.
They spared her , she didn't know why at that time but now she did.
But despite this revelation Helena's hatred didn't subside as she loaded up another bolt on her crossbow under the fearful eyes of Santo…
…..
Adrian was like a shadow as he knocked out all the guards one by one permanently erasing the ones that needed cleansing which were only a few as the guards over here turned out to be mercenaries since Santo was preparing for a war with some rival gangs.
But he won't be needing this manpower anymore since after tonight most of the gangs would be out of commission for a while…
