Batman was constantly aware of his surroundings when it came time to patrol. While the heavy suit did not always lend itself well to being sneaky he was a master at the art of picking up stealthy behaviors. He had not moved far after getting rid of the thugs before he heard a sound behind him. It was a faint click on the sidewalk, a sound that shouldn't have been there based on his surroundings.<br/><br/>As Batman twirled around, his cape flowing in the turn his eyes caught the glistening of sharp metal claws in the moonlight. The fist that had swung from his right hand with the momentum shifted almost immediately as he recognized it was a woman in a black costume. His momentum shifted slightly as his narrow eyes widened for just a moment while his right hand grapsed her shoulder his left quickly following suit as he thrust her backward into a nearby alley and shoved her up to a wall making sure not to ram her head into the concrete.<br/><br/>Her green eyes caught his icey blue ones but his grip did not loosen in any capacity. "You should know better than to sneak up on me in the middle of the night. I don't know who or what you are but the streets are protected by me, I don't need a sidekick. If you are here as an enemy you picked the wrong night to mess with me." His deep gravelly voice generally left men piddling in their pants in fear as his eyes narrowed to show the seriousness of his words.
