League Of Assassin's Temple

It's been 9 years since then and I'm 14 now. I've only grown stronger and I've learned more about the world as well as training. I've learned about the existence of so-called superheroes. I've learned that the bastard they call Batman is the reason for my mothers death.

Grandfather told me it was him who allowed my mother to die during a fight with a villain when he could have saved her. Since then I've dedicated my entire life to killing Batman. I've asked my Grandfather who my father is, but he says even he doesn't know. Grandfather said that soon he'll let me see the real world, when I am of age and skilled enough, of course.

Anyways Grandfather has called for me again, even though we weren't supposed to be training today. Whatever not much I can do about it. Making my way through the temple I finally make my way to Grandfathers... office I guess you could call it.

Ra's: Boy, do you have any idea why I called you?

Jon: Are we doing more training?

Ra's: Incorrect. You are here today because I have something important to tell you after witnessing your talent and dedication to the league.

Jon: Okay. What exactly do you want to tell me?

Ra's: I have decided that you shall be my heir. You have the skill, dedication, and willpower. You remind me a lot of someone else who was just like you. Nevertheless he was a failure you shall succeed where he failed.

Jon: Of course Grandfather, there is no better honor! Do not worry, I will not let you down.

Ra's: I know. Anyways there is still more that needs to be done before you can takeover as clan head. Your skill has not yet met my standards and you're not of age. Once these requirements are met the league will be yours. Understood?

Jon: Yes Sir.

I guess my training from now on will be even more intense. Doesn't matter though, I've come to learn that any wounds, that are not fatal, I can heal from in a day now. I think I might have superpowers like all of the "Heroes" Grandfather showed me.

One example of this is my ability to heal. I can heal at unnatural speeds and it seems as though the speed increases every time I am wounded. Another example would be that I can adapt to any and all training I am put through with a few days. There seems to be no limit to my growth as well. At the age of 14 I am already as strong as an adult man. Just as fast too.

I'm certain that's what Grandfather and Aunt Talia mean when they say I'm special. Speaking of Aunt Talia there she is now.

Talia: Hello Jonathan.

Jon: Hello Aunt Talia. How are you?

Talia: I've been fine. You?

Jon: Grandfather has decided to make me his heir.

Talia: I already know that he made you his heir. Who do you think suggested you should be?

Jon: That was you?

Talia: No it was actually Nyssa.

Jon: Really? I thought she hated me.

Talia: She may have been hard on you, but she loves you because you are our nephew. She only wants to see you go far in life.

Jon: Well I guess I'll go say thank you to her. Speak to you later Aunt Talia.

Talia: Goodbye Jon.

With that I walked around trying to find Aunt Nyssa. It was pretty difficult as she wasn't in her room or at the training grounds like she always is. After finding her in the cafeteria, by herself like usual, I approached her.

Jon: Hello Aunt Nyssa.

Nyssa: What do you want brat.

Jon: I just wanted to say thank you for recommending me as clan heir.

Nyssa: You're welcome now leave me alone.

Jon: Is that how you talk to a future clan head? *Silent Snickering*

This lead to me being chased around with a sword for an hour. I'm just glad she didn't catch me, or she would have rolled me into a ball and kicked me to Mars. Also, yes, I do study because Grandfather said he didn't want an idiot grandson.

Anyways I think it's time for me to do some workouts before I go to bed as I need to get stronger in order to face Batman. After about three hours of working out, I've decided I need to get in the shower because I smell like a dogs butthole.

Making my way to the bathroom, I turned on the shower and got in. About half an hour later I was finally done washing off all the sweat on my body, though most of my time in there was spent thinking about how I'd go about killing Batman.

After a short walk to my room I finally laid down turned off the lights and went to sleep.

*Timeskipuuuu!!!*

I was awakened at about 5 am like usual, difference is Ra's wasn't the one waking me up it was one of the assassins that woke me up. It's odd but I'll accept it. I was going to the training grounds like usual, when all of a sudden a huge group of assassins attacked me all at once.

Knowing this was a test by my Grandfather I decided to put on a show.

Making distance between myself and them I was immediately forced to go on defense when I was attacked by one. Sidestepping a kick I countered by grabbing there foot and throwing them on the ground finishing with a stomp to the head that knocked him out.

Almost instantly a punch was thrown toward my head, tilting my head to dodge, I countered with a devastating right hook to the chin, which instantly put him to sleep. It went on like this for another five minutes with me taking a few hits every once in a while. Eventually I knocked everyone out and Grandfather came to congratulate me.

Ra's: Good, very good. Still not good enough, you need to be able to knock everyone out without being touched a single time.

Jon: Yes Grandfather.

Ra's: Doesn't matter you'll get there in another year or two, I will make sure of it.

With that I was dismissed. I immediately went toward the doctors office as I definitely needed some bandages after that.

After being patched up I went to my room to rest for the day.
