The fire raged. Nightwing watched as a tower crumbled. He grabbed another girl and dragged her off the school yards. He turned back and got a kick to the face. Blue Beetle ran over and helped him stand again.

"Hello, Nightwing,darling." the woman said. "Remember me?"

"Too well." Nightwing said, wiping the blood from his mouth as the rain continued to pour down. 

"You need help, hombre?" Beetle asked.

"I'm fine." Nightwing said. "Get the girl to the hospital with Mal. And raise a line to Revenge. Tell him to get out. Now!"

Beetle nodded and ran off. Nightwing turned back to his adversary. Formerly known as Catalina Flores, Tarantula had the same devilish smirk as everytime they met. Her outfit was similar to Artemis's. Instead of green and lime green however, she was orange and black with a large spider emblem on her chest. Her orange domino mask was similar to Nightwing's except it had a large black diamond in the middle of it. Her hair was wet and clung to her face in the midnight rain.

"Careful, darling." she said. "My bite's poisonous."
