Wrenching the man over his shoulder and slamming him into the ground, Jason breathed out heavily. Turning back to his charge, he frowned. "Don’t go in alley’s. Horrible idea, if you couldn’t tell."

To be absolutely honest, Jason was horrible with children. Half the time he scared them, the other half he was too pissed to deal with the little assholes. So he was starting the job of being a bodyguard, he definitely wasn’t expecting to deal with one. But after what happened with the Joker…

…

Maybe kids needed them. If Jason ever saw a little, naïve child think they’re so strong, just to end up dead, he’d never forgive himself.

He ran a hand through his hair and sighed. “C’mon,” he muttered, leaning down a bit to take the kids hand. “We should hurry, before he gets up,” Jason said quietly.
