(3rd person POV)

The League was originally thought to be nothing more than a myth created by Ra's al Ghul, to frighten his followers into submission, but in reality, they were created by Ra's to stop mankind's course of destroying itself. After learning of Ra's true purpose for the Shadows, Shiva turned them against him and used them for her own path of destruction and power.

Right now, they are at war with the League of Assassins.

Lady Shiva was overseeing the training of her army. As she watched her students spar, she couldn't help but think of a plan to destroy the League. The Shadows were the best of the best. They were ruthless, cunning, and most importantly, loyal to their cause. It didn't matter what she wanted them to do, as long as she was alive and well, the Shadows would never question it.

This batch of shadows is going through their final year of training. Out of these fifty students, only twenty would survive. After years of training and discipline, Shiva knew these students' limits, and she made sure that their training was going as planned. She only wants the strongest Shadows and nothing less.

The weak would die before becoming an elite Shadow. She'd done it dozens of times before and would continue to do so. Shiva looked up towards the sky. The sun is slowly creeping over the mountains, signaling a new day. She felt a sense of uneasiness for some reason. It was as if a weird pressure was coming from the sky.

"Humm." She could feel a faint vibration on her body. It's coming from the sky, but what could it be? The vibration kept coming every once in a while. It lasted for a few hours, before finally disappearing. Whatever it was, it left her with a sense of unease and discomfort.

'Damn.'

That wasn't supposed to happen. Her mind started going crazy at this feeling, searching through the different scenarios that could lead to this. One in particular came to mind. The blue and red streak in the sky she saw this morning! She knew it. She saw two human figures disappear in the sky this morning. No one saw them but her, but she had a suspicion that this incident had something to do with their appearance.

'Metahumans?' She wondered what kind of abilities those have other than flight at supersonic speed. To travel faster than the speed of light! Such technology did not exist, that's why she concluded them as metahumans. 'We need to take care of Ra's before aiming our daggers at the rest of the world. I wonder, what kind of fight will they give me?'

Lady Shiva couldn't help but feel excited. She doesn't even remember feeling such uneasiness in her entire life. She's the strongest. A true master of lethal arts. But at the speed the blue and red streaks flew, there ain't many humans who could see them at that speed, and she couldn't think of anyone faster than her. But not everything could be seen with her eyesight. She needed to think beyond her five senses, and now the appearance of these "Metahumans", has opened her mind to new possibilities and strengths.

After a while...

Lady Shiva stopped the training session. She looked at her daughter, Cassandra, and spoke to her through sign language, telling her to get ready for 1v1 fight with them.

Cassandra was the daughter of David Cain, an operative named "Orphan", who worked as an assassin for Mother. He raised Cassandra alone and forced her not to speak but to "listen" to body movements and react accordingly, with deadly precision. She was intended to be a "gift" to Mother, to show her that child assassins could be manipulated through "the old ways" instead of through the use of drugs. When Lady Shiva found out about David's plan, she killed him in cold blood for using her daughter and dealing with a mere human trafficker.

Cassandra felt a piercing pain. She touched her stomach and saw blood. Her wounds weren't deep, but this was the first time someone from training shadows had managed to hurt her.

She didn't know what happened. She was too fast for her opponent. She shouldn't have been hit.

Lady Shiva stood up and looked at the man.

"Treat his wounds," She ordered and then turned to Cassandra. She talked to her in sign language, "Patience is what can not be taught. It's what you have to learn by yourself. If you are too impatient, you will die. Go back to your room, apply medicine to your wounds, and meditate. We'll talk later."

She turned around and left, followed by the rest of the shadows.
