The Heist
Edge City was home to one of the few Wayne Enterprises technical depots in the American Northwest, and Damien knew that the Grand Design would need parts of the best quality for maximum output. The machine is nearly completed, but so much remained to be done. Tonight, he would kill two birds with one stone.

He would obtain the parts needed for the machine and test the loyalty of the League of Assassins' newest member. Lian Harper had made herself indispensable to him over the past week, but Damien was still wary of her. Morgaine still advocated murdering her (in her sleep was Morgaine's favorite suggestion), but Damien could not yet drop the hammer.

He hoped that Lian would prove up to tonight's task and handed her the binoculars so that she could see the their target from the top of the cliffs several miles above the facility. The pair of them, along with seven others, would rappel down the cliffside and into the valley to infiltrate the building.

"Once we have procured our items, we will exit the building and head for the chopper. It will be here on time. We will spare no civilians who stand in our way. Do you understand our mission, Lian?" Damien asks his Head of Security.

"I intend to change the world, Lian. My grandfather believed that lowering the world's population was the first step in creating his utopia. While I believe a lower population would aid in such, I also believe that using everyone available benefits us more." Damien says.

"Imagine what the world could be if everyone were united in cause instead of fighting each other over boundaries. I know that I can unite the world in a common cause with the correct motivation. The League of Assassins is what we are now, but I do not intend for us to remain as such, always." he hints.

	"You want to rule the world," she said, "That is what you intend to do with the League, correct? In order for the world to united, they'd need someone to lead them. Is that what you intend to do?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"No, I do not. Do you know how much administration would be involved in such a task? 'The wise man seeks only to master his world. The Fool seeks to master the whole world, without mastery of self'." Damien says.

"I have no interest in being king of the world, Lian. I do wish to live in a world that has no fear of death through war, famine or disease. If a man is just, and does his job well, he will be paid fairly and allowed to go his way. If a man commits a crime against his neighbor, he is judged swiftly and without hesitation. The lawful have no need to fear the law, or that is how it should be.

In this day and age, however, how often do you see the guilty go free while the innocent are punished? This has led to the proliferation of vigilantism and the rise of what is called the superhero." Damien tells her, kissing her lips.

"The League's purpose is not to rule the world, but to insure that the world will rule itself."

	No. You will keep your mouth shut about your thoughts on superheroes. You're undercover, goddamnit. "I see. I look forward to helping you achieve this goal." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That is good to know. I would hate to think you believed me insane." Damien chuckles. "If you had any one wish for this world, what would it be?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"We're all a little insane," Lian said, kissing him.

"For no child to have to go to bed at night wondering if it'll be their last. For them not to live in fear everyday, wondering if this will be the day that they die. To question whether or not there's a damn soul on this earth that cares about them." Lian was silent for a moment. "There's a lot of things I can't stand, but I can never see how someone can just abuse a child."

"I also abhor child abuse." Damien says, thinking of Morgaine. "I donate to several charities that help abused children. I learned that one of them was using them as slave labor while pretending to save them.

That organization no longer exists." Damien tells her.

"Some day, no child will ever feel that way, Lian. I am working toward that end with all that I am trying to accomplish."

	"It's disgusting," Lian said, her thoughts drifting to Mia and what her father and later Richard put her through. "I look forward to that day, Damien." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He leans in to kiss her neck and her shoulder again, biting gently. "I dislike the look of sadness on your face, Lian. I will do my best to see that it does not long find a home on your face." he whispers. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh?" She grinned, kissing him, biting his lip gently. "And what might that entail?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Why tell you when I can show you?" Damien smiles. And show her he does. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Another hour or two later (she really wasn't keeping track of time), she was grinning at him again. "You are really making this hard for me to stay here for just another night." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"As long as you stay with me, Lian, the location is not important to me." Damien says, running his fingertips along her spine. He peeks under the covers. "Do you have any tattoos, Lian?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rightontarget 2010-09-21 01:51 am UTC (link)
	A shiver went down her spine. "Two, actually," she said, "One on each hip." If he looked, he'd see them.Her tattoos weren't so big that they took up her entire hip, but they weren't so small that you'd miss them, either. They were just the right size, for her. On her left hip was the kanji for fearless. On her right hip was the kanji for strength. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Damien reads them easily, smiling at her. Then, he leaned in to kiss each one. "Your markings speak truth. I always wanted one, myself, but I cannot have tattoos." Damien tells her. "Do you plan to get anymore?" he asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Your mother would kill you if she found out?" Lian asked, smirking playfully at him. "I don't think so," Lian said, "But you never know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	headofthedemon 2010-09-21 11:39 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh, I wish it was that simple. No, my darling, I cannot scar. If I got tattos, they would simply heal over and my skin would appear good as new within days." he says simply. He kisses the tattos at her hips again. "I think that shall be another ritual of mine." Damien says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rightontarget 2010-09-21 11:56 pm UTC (link)
	"While the not being able to get tattoos sucks, I wouldn't mind not being able to scar." While she wasn't covered in them, Lian had her fair share of scars. Lian let out a contented sigh. "No objections here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Damien did not argue with this choice of activity. In fact, he endorsed it enthusiastically. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And who was it that said that staying in bed all day was bad for you? Lian certainly had no objections. She'd lost track of time, perfectly content to just spend it with Damien. The sudden growling of her stomach made her realize how late in the day it was. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
