Robin grunted as he felt the kidney attack and gave a thankful thought at having the kevlar enforced tunic on. That attack to his kidney's could have done some damage.
Tim then threw the heel of his right-foot down onto Shinobi's foot in a quick thrust. That loosed his hold on Robin, who slid out of the ninja's grip. Robin then struck the ninja with an upper-cut and grabbing his tunic, rolled back and flipped Shinobi over him, before leaping back onto his feet.
"Good," Robin said. "But be careful with those sorts of techniques. Shiva thrives on close quarter attacks and she no doubt has more painful ways to get around them."

"I figure as much. muey thai kickboxing is a very brutal discipline. perfect for an assasin." Shinobi said getting too his feet. "but how is she as a grappler?" he asked as he got to robin feinting a punch and getting around his neck performing a basic hip throw. (at least thats his plan)

Robin smiled as he grabbed Shinobi's shoulder and executed a simple pressure point attack, freeing him before he was completely flipped and rolled with the fall.
"She's one of the best in existance," he replied, kicking Shinobi in the back of the leg, forcing him to drop to one knee. "But she perfers to make things quick. She is often known to use a single blow to take down her opponent unless they truly look like competition."
The Boy Wonder grabbed Shinobi's arm and he'd it painfully behind his back. " Distraction is the key. Give her something she won't expect of you."

"well i do have one thing i've been wanting too do in a fight...and no one would expect it."
"you realize what she's likely too do if you kiss her right?" enoki asked not looking up from his book.

"She'll kiss him back before ripping out his heart and showing it to him," Robin said relasing his hold in Shinobi.
"Let's take a break," he told his fellow Titan. "You're tired. I shouldn't have been able to get you into that arm hold so easily."
Robin grabbed two towels and threw one to Shinobi before walking towards Enoki. "You've been awfully quiet..."

"Im worried. i did help train her after all. she knows what too expect. or at least has an idea. that puts him at a disticnt disadvantage. as well as her being willing too kill..adam is not..." The old man shook his head. "if i need too i may have to use 'that' technique on her..." He trailed off as adam dried his sweat. "and adam. you need to stop reacting to your enemy. anticipate. get inside of what he does."

"You can't just kill her," Robin said to Enoki. "You be giving her what she wants. She's looking for death. Whether it's her own or someone else's. That doesn't matter." He lowered his head slightly. Enoki was a strong martial artist despite his age. But fact was fact. Aside from Batgirl who's skills were boarding on in-human, Lady Shiva was the best fighter on earth.
"And with all due respect sir, I'm not sure that you can beat her. She's trained with a lot of other masters after she left you, and she's killed almost everyone of them. She has techniques in her repreture that are known only to her."

"I understand that...but if i must try to correct my mistake i will. adam's training is still a long way from being complete but he shows great potential...what he needs is a great rival to bring it out. someone who is neither too strong nor too weak...like you...but at the moment that is not the point...getting adam to survive is."

"Agreed," Robin said. "I wish we had Batgirl were here. She's the only fighter who is better than Shiva. But I can't get in contact with her or Batman."
Robin hadn't told them how he had once beaten Shiva, but it had not been under his own skills. A russian freedom fighter called Dave had drugged Robin with an plan call Aramilla, which was a form of steroids that increased Robin's speed and strength to the level almost rivaling the Flash. It allowed him to move faster and hit stronger than Shiva. It had also allowed him to kill her. He had been able to revive her thought CPR, but it was an event that he could never forget.

"you two DO realize i can hear you right?" Shinobi asked performing kata's instead of resting.
"yes i know you do. but...honestly what do you rate his mere odds of survival. forget victory."

"Very slim," Robin said, before looking back at Adam who was still pushing himself when he should have been taking a break. "And getting slimmer by the minute..." He walked to Shinobi with an annoyed scowl.
"Adam, I told you to rest. You aren't doing yourself any good by pushing yourself past the point of exhastion. You're not only weakening you body but you mind as well." Robin rolled down his glove and looked at his watch. "In fact, you should get to bed. We've got one more day. We'll need to make the most of it."
He turned and walked out of the room. Again, he didn't want to sound so harsh but this wasn't a time to use kid gloves. He couldn't let his friend die at the hands of Shiva.
"Hello Little Bird."
Robin spun around to face Lady Shiva. He felt his blood run cold. She scared him. Always had.
"Shiva."

Adam finally consented and walked into the basement to sleep on a cot. (freind? yay shinobi has freinds lol) Enoki continued his reading although thought he something seemed odd.

"It's been a long time," Shiva smiled.
Robin nodded but didn't say anything. He did his best to look strong and defiant. But inside he was scared to no end. If she came to fight, he'd in no way be able to beat her.
"Do not worry, Little Bird," Shiva said, almost reading his thoughts. "I only wish to talk."
Robin raised an eyebrow. "What about?"
