[Comprehensive British and American] Jason Wayne's Road to Struggle

After the meal, Bucky and Jason stood in a line and chatted while doing the dishes.

"A water pipe was broken by the squirrel girl who came to play. I'm going to buy a new one. When I come back, I'll buy vegetables. What do you want to eat? I'll bring it to you."

"Buy a piece of brisket, I'll make you an authentic Texas smoked brisket, but I may come home later today, so be careful when you go out, Gotham is getting more and more chaotic recently."

"Aren't you going to school today? Anything else?"

"There are too many scouts looking for me. They all want me to play professionally. It's very annoying, so I skipped class today. I went to play with Roy and Frank."

Jason was very distressed. Even a good student like him was forced to skip class. You can imagine how annoying those scouts were after him.

Now he would rather fight vampires with Roy and the others than go to school and be watched.

I heard that Roy is now famous in the vampire hunter business, and has the intention of forming a regular team with Frank. The whole person looks a lot more energetic, as if he has found a new goal in life. Introduced to Frank was right.

However, that day, not only did Jason not go home late, he even drove back to Gotham with the portal open at 2:[-] pm, ready to go out with a cold face.

Bucky looked at his back in confusion, but Yin Sen seemed to have sensed something, and immediately called back all the children who were outside, and everyone in Crime Lane and even the entire East District became tense, as if feeling To the ominous breath.

Until the evening, news of a mass escape in Arkham came, and Bucky sat with Yinsen at the gate of the orphanage with a weapon in hand, wary of any criminals who dared to run here.

Yin Sen hugged his micro-chance and comforted Bucky: "Don't be too nervous, the killer crocodile and mutants will guard the sewer, but if there is something on the ground, they won't ignore it."

And in terms of the toughness and solidarity of the residents, the East Side can be regarded as the best in Gotham.

Bucky shook his head: "I'm worried about Jason."

When Jason left, that expression was really wrong, as if the sky was about to fall, and then he was going to put the roof back, and the circles of his eyes seemed to be red.

Bucky has known Jason for so long, but he has never seen Jason like this. In his cognition, Jason has always looked unapproachable, but in fact he is gentle and kind, and bravely takes on the responsibility of his whole brother. Tan East's young superhero.

He had never seen Jason's tears.

Yin Sen had never seen Jason's tears, they all fell silent, and after a while, Yin Sen laughed.

"Did you know? When I first met Jason, he was still a child, so thin that he could be blown away by a gust of wind. He didn't even reach my shoulders, but he was already a world champion."

He gestured: "My wife and daughter like him very much."

Bucky: "They..."

"It's gone. I wanted to die with them, but Jason rescued me. Then I stayed in a vegetable state for a year. When I woke up, I started working for Jason."

"Feel sorry."

Bucky apologized.

Yin Sen waved his hand: "It's okay, I'm already much better. In fact, it's not bad to be the director of the orphanage. I have a lot of children in one fell swoop. I don't even want to be lonely anymore."

He rubbed the handle of the gun: "I think Jason is a man who can do great things, and he will definitely save many people in the future. Such a life is not bad."

It was not until two days later that Gotham re-entered a relatively stable state. The criminals who escaped from Arkham have not been arrested, but most of them are scattered in various places, and there is no major action for the time being.

It was also at this time that Bucky learned from Jason who came back that Batman died in the war against Darkseid in outer space.

And Jason is the second Robin of Batman, and Batman is Jason's father.

……

When Jason came back, he was covered in wounds from fighting the scarecrow who escaped from prison. Bucky sat beside him, applying medicine to him, and observing his expression.

Jason's eyes were full of gloom, as if a dark storm was rolling in it.

He whispered: "I still don't believe he died like that. How could Batman die so easily? Bucky, this is unreasonable."

Bucky really wants to say that there is no one who is immortal in this world, even gods will fall one day, Jason is acting like he can't accept his father's death at all.

He even saw madness in Jason's eyes, Jason's rationality was on the verge of collapse, this was the first time Bucky saw Jason like this, so he didn't say anything in the end, just hugged him in his arms , let Jason lean on his shoulder.

"You haven't rested for several days, go to sleep first."

In fact, Bucky seldom hugged Jason, just like Jason rarely hugged Bucky when he was not having nightmares.

This is mainly because of Jason's gender issue. As an old-school person born at the beginning of the last century, even though Jason looks like a big and fit boy, Bucky still maintains his due proportion to him. This is a matter of upbringing and morality The problem is also the basic respect for Jason.

After all, unless it is a wife and girlfriend, it is actually very offensive to hug, kiss, touch chest, waist, hip, thigh and other areas without any scruples when dealing with the opposite sex, and if there is too little sense of distance, it will easily make women feel unnecessary misunderstanding.

It's like although he doesn't like to wear a shirt to sleep because of the metal arm, but when he lies on the same bed with Jason, Bucky will definitely wear pants, and when Jason wants to change clothes, he will take the initiative to avoid it. Even when Jason sometimes forgot to close the door while taking a shower, Bucky would not turn his eyes away, and he would not put his arms around Jason's waist or shoulders at ordinary times, unless Jason won the game or took the first place in the exam. , then they will high-five, shoulder-pound, and hug.

Bucky has a feeling of respect and love for Jason. The more he thinks Jason is respectable, the less he will behave in ways that offend Jason, because he believes that such a good Jason is worth cherishing. of.

On the clean and warm big bed, Jason buried himself in Bucky's arms. Bucky felt a little wet on his chest, and the back of his hands trembled slightly. This kid is always very strong, and it is really the first time to show like this. Second-rate.

To Jason, Bucky thought, his father must be very important.

"he treats me well."

"Ah."

"He would watch movies with me and let me sleep next to him."

"Ah."

"He sent me to ice skating, hoping that I would have my own hobbies and make more friends."

"Ah."

"He gave me everything, even if he doesn't kill the clown, he is still the person I respect the most."

"……Um."

Jason talked about a few things he experienced when he followed Batman as Robin, and how he walked into the Joker's death trap because of impulse, then died, resurrected, and walked on the current path.

Bucky never asked about Jason's past before, and Jason didn't say anything about it. Until today, Bucky didn't know about Jason's past and why he became the person he is now.

After a while, Jason calmed down and said something through gritted teeth.

"There are a lot of scum outside who are hurting ordinary people, and the scum in Arkham has also come out. I can't let them be arrogant."

Bucky patted him on the back: "I know, you're going to get serious, right?"

Jason replied firmly: "That's right, I used rubber bullets outside the Eastern District for the sake of Afu, Tim, and Barbara, but the current situation cannot be solved by rubber bullets. Take a hard hand."

His tone was sharp as if he had a knife in his mouth. Bucky thought that it would be a good thing that Jason would not be overwhelmed by the news, and was immediately ready to fight the criminals. This at least showed that he would not think wildly.

But he also feels sorry for Jason. After all, a person who just lost his beloved father doesn't even want to save time for himself to grieve. He only wants to protect others. Jason is too harsh on himself and takes the safety of others too seriously. up.

"What I'm doing is against my family, Bucky, and I'm going to make them my enemy again."

"do you need my help?"

"No, this is my war."

Jason's mobility is very strong. To a certain extent, he is the most complete person who inherits the rationality, calmness, high efficiency, and determination of the Bat-type Superhero. When necessary, he will completely abandon the influence of emotions. .

Even though he was actually dying of grief, he really wanted to take a spaceship to outer space immediately to find Darkseid desperately.

Even if he knows that mass killing will arouse the dissatisfaction of his family members.

But Jason knows that "killing criminals and protecting ordinary people" is the first priority, so whether revenge and family dissatisfaction should be put in the back row, and he is even ready to fight with his family, even the battle plan against them All from A to Z.

Bucky has always been by Jason's side, so seeing Jason like this, he finally understands why in the superhero group, the bat-type superheroes, whose members are almost all ordinary people, are always awe-inspiring.

If all the superheroes of the Bat series are like Jason, it really takes courage to be an enemy of them.

Yin Sen came in with his breakfast and whispered, "Jason, you have to remind me not to offend you in the future."

He glanced at the guy Jason had prepared for his family and shuddered silently.

It's no wonder that Jason and Thalia are so compatible, the two are exactly the same in terms of being ruthless.

On the second day, the external situation in Gotham changed. Black Mask gathered the criminals who had escaped from Arkham and prepared to cooperate with them.

The vigilantes headed by Commissioner Gordon were obviously powerless in the face of such a group of lunatics. They had to impose a curfew in Gotham, which means that people are prohibited from going out late at night, but within a few days, the number of victims caused by fighting against super villains , Let at least 15 police officers resign from the police department.

Jason knew that the Red Hood was the patron saint of the Eastern District. If he wanted to go out and kill people as the Red Hood, he couldn't guarantee that no one would go with him in the Eastern District, but that was something he didn't want to see.

So Jason threw away the red hood and changed his equipment.

Pure black Kevlar, helmet with bat ears, looks like a modified version of Batman.

Yin Sen looked at him speechless: "Are you serious? If you go out like this, people might think that Batman is a transgressive person who killed someone, right?"

"At this point, it's time for someone to put on Batman's cape and go out to frighten those lunatics, but he didn't come out, what can I do?"

Jason sighed: "I should have known, Batman's death is unbearable for me, and it must be even more unacceptable for him, he has always been like this, sometimes at critical moments hesitate."

Yin Sen: "Who is he in your mouth?"

"The person recognized by the family as the most qualified to inherit Dad's mantle is Batman's first Robin, but he probably hasn't adjusted his mood yet."

Bucky sat next to him and organized Jason's equipment. He said seriously, "I think you are the strongest in your family. You can use magic. In terms of strength, you should be the one who inherits the cloak."

Jason shrugged his shoulders: "It doesn't matter, after all, I have taken a different path from them, so I have no inheritance rights, and I wear this clothes in their eyes, it seems like a rebellious son stealing dad's clothes, it's explicit The point is the unfilial son who usurped the throne, but it would be nice if he could provoke that decadent fool while killing criminals."

Watching him go out with a few guns on his back, Yin Sen was suddenly speechless.

He asked Bucky, "You said, since he thinks his brother should come out to work in his father's cape, why does he have to make a battle plan against them?"

Bucky thought for a while and replied: "Because Jason's main goal is to kill criminals, he doesn't really care whether his family really comes out to fight crime at this time, because he thinks they are entitled to spend a period of time grieving, but If his family wants to hinder his fight, they will definitely fight, because Jason will definitely not give in on issues of principle."

"But if he does this, he and his family will become enemies. Can't they sit down and talk about mutual understanding?"

"Jason said that he and his family are not the same people. He has long been prepared to fight against them. It doesn't matter if he understands it or not. Let's kill the criminals and save more people."

Yin Sen couldn't help sighing: "Hearing what you said, this family is really conflicted. No, why do you know Jason so well?"

Obviously he is the one who has known Jason longer!

Bucky blinked his gray-green eyes.

This... is probably the extra gain from sleeping in the same bed for several months.

It wasn't until later that Bucky had thought that if he knew what was going to happen, he would go with Jason no matter how reluctant he was.

At the beginning of the operation, Jason first took out a few waves of criminals who made the most noise and killed the most innocent people, and then dealt with those difficult stubbles one by one.

Fighting crime, Jason is a skilled worker in this respect, and he has never minded using unscrupulous means when confronting the enemy. Attacking and gaining the upper hand, the criminals lost their momentum for a while, and they all began to panic about how to survive under the crazy new version of Batman.

As expected, Jason's brothers attracted attention.

What Jason didn't expect was that Damian was the first one to appear on the stage. This kid came out aggressively, and started fighting with Jason without saying anything. Pick up a crowbar.

This can be regarded as completely enraged Jason, this brat, just hit him once with a crowbar, last time he was able to convince himself that Damian didn't mean it, but now this kid definitely did it on purpose!

Jason, who knew how durable Damian, who possessed four times the healing power, beat the brat to three-quarters death.

This poor boy, he knew that he used the crowbar on purpose, he should have hit it so hard last time!

After Damian was beaten half to death, it was Tim's turn to play.

Jason was merciful to Tim, and only beat him half to death. If he takes good care of him, there won't even be any sequelae.

And just as he was about to leave, Ye Yi's roar came from behind him.

"Jason Todd, do you know what you are doing?!"

Jason beckoned without looking back, and jumped down into the night. The huntress and Batgirl rushed over to stop him, but Jason blocked him 10 meters away with bullets. Adding smoke bombs, Jason was very Get away smoothly.

At that time, Jason thought, maybe the next time we meet, it will be a battle between him and Ye Yi. He has never fought Dick seriously before, so he is a little excited when he thinks about it.

But what he didn't expect was that Dick knew his weaknesses as well as he knew his brothers.

In other words, Bruce knows what Jason's weakness is.When dealing with Jason, Nightwing used Bruce's plan for Jason.

It was a projection, and when Jason and Dick were playing evenly, Catwoman turned on the projector on the side.

Jason froze when he saw Bruce's figure.

He opened his eyes wide and watched the projection of Bruce's lips opening and closing, saying the so-called last words, saying that of all the mistakes in his life, Jason was the biggest one.

Am I wrong?

He said he was responsible for Jason's path of self-destruction, because Jason's mind had been shattered, and he hoped that Jason would realize his mistakes and make up for the gap in his mind.

"Turn off."

The projection continued to speak, and Jason yelled at Nightwing, "Shut him down!"

"Jason, your childhood experiences, and your body have left you with unhealed wounds, and you need to heal, not vent, but it's not too late, Alfred knows a very good The psychiatrist..."

boom!

Jason smashed the projector with one shot, and Ye Yi took this opportunity to rush up to Jason and punch him hard.

"I'm not going to say I'm sorry, Jason. From the time you attacked your family, I knew you had become an irrational lunatic. Gotham is already in chaos. She can't afford another lunatic."

He held Jason firmly and handcuffed him.

Jason spat out a mouthful of bruises and sighed: "I just said hello to the two baby birds, at best the way was not friendly, God, I thought I would never say that, I really hate you It's better than using this trick if you call Batgirl and Huntress to attack me together."

Ye Yi reluctantly twitched the corner of his mouth: "They are going to stabilize the order in other areas, and I can only deal with you alone, without resorting to some means."

"You're such a dick."

"..."

"Tell me, this projection was not left to deal with me."

Dick still didn't speak, Jason also fell silent, he blinked his eyes: "I killed all the little thieves who made trouble, I beat the black mask to half, and I froze Poison Ivy with the air-conditioning of Freeze Man , Riddler's bones are almost broken, can you handle the rest by yourself?"

Ye Yi suddenly leaned over and kissed Jason. The kiss was very fierce, like a beast biting and venting, with a strong smell of blood.

Jason never expected that seven years later, after the two had been separated for a long time, and each had a new relationship experience, he would kiss Dick Grayson again.

He thought he had let go of Dick, but this kiss awakened Jason's memory, and he suddenly remembered the "Brokeback Mountain" he saw in his study.

Catwoman standing next to her whistled directly.

When the kiss was over, Dick gasped and smiled wryly.

"Are you crazy or not? It's such a time, and you're still so calm. What did you go through after your resurrection to become like this?"

Jason licked his lips, a little surprised: "What do you mean? Why..."

There was a hint of sadness in Dick's tone, and he looked Jason in the eye.

"Do you know? You are a dead person who has no identity. You have done these things. I can't put you in prison. I can only send you to Arkham."

"Lazarus put a monster in your body, can you say hello to that monster and ask him to return my Jason to me?"

If Jason had been able to maintain his sanity when he was fighting with his family before, or even facing Bruce's backup plan against him, his heart was really cold at this moment.

Jason once wondered why he couldn't get along with his family after he came back. He used to think that it was because he took a different path from his family, but now Jason finally understood the reason.

It turns out that in their hearts, he is now a monster created by Lazarus, not "Jason Todd".

Jason's "hate you to death" before was just a witticism after the battle, but now he really hates Dick a little bit, and Dick's words made his first love a joke!

The sky began to rain, Jason gradually put away the expression on his face, stared at Dick coldly, and showed a sarcastic smile.

"The second-generation Robin in your heart never really existed. Realize the fact as soon as possible, Dicky Bird, it's just a phantom."

The author has something to say:

Collect all 100 comments, the Mushroom Beast can release its secret skills: One-click East, Flying Immortal from Heaven (two more nicknames).

Mushroom has always thought that Ba Ji is a graceful little Brooklyn prince, gentle and charming, so he must be a very educated and polite person. Maybe he doesn't mind being rough and can fight, but he will respect women and polite.

And Jason has experienced Dick's first love... Well, it's overly enthusiastic, and he doesn't mind hugging and touching at all, but this kind of character that has no sense of distance and doesn't know how to refuse can easily make people sad. For example, Dick was almost rejected The time Barbara kissed, Jason was very sad when he saw it.

So now Jason has a better impression of men who maintain a sense of propriety and demeanor (the influence left by Dick). He feels that such a person gives him a sense of security, and a sense of security... For Jason It's a big killer. Sister Ta was able to hit Jason in the first place because she said she wanted to kill the clown who hurt Jason.

Although Bucky didn't say anything, his performance in daily life gave Jason a sense of security. Jason now trusts him very much, and is even willing to call Bucky "dude" and "brother" jokingly, It's up to him to show him how vulnerable losing Bruce was to him, because Bucky reassures Jason.

================

The plot of this chapter comes from "The Battle for the Cloak". In the final crisis event, Bruce was hit by the villain Darkseid's Omega ray and passed through (on the surface he hung up). After Batman disappeared, Gotham was in chaos stand up.

The "fool who should wear a cloak to work" in Jason's mouth is Dick, but after Bruce's death, Dick was unwilling to take over the cloak for a while. Come out, it's not that Jason loves Bruce less than Dick, but to Jason, it's meaningless to be sad, it's more practical to save a few people first.
