The cable car shook slightly in the air as it approached the heart of the industrial zone, the moonlight reflecting off the rusty warehouse rooftops.Blade turned his head toward Robin and said, putting on his mask with a dramatic gesture:"Robin, listen closely… I want you to drop me right on top of Warehouse 47. Like an express delivery at half price—no tip, no questions."

Robin frowned, glaring at him sternly:"Blade, this is madness! Slade is no joke, he's a calculated killer. You need to listen to a plan—"

But Blade cut him off with an outstretched hand, like a stage actor bowing to his audience:"Plan?! I walk with a divine flexible plan. Look at me—part hitman, part stage clown… I am the plan, Robin."

Robin exhaled sharply in frustration:"You're going to get yourself killed. Slade is a real threat!"

Blade winked with one eye, his bright blue eye cutting through the darkness of the car:"Oh Robin, Robin, Robin… my dear masked friend… the real danger would be letting you all interfere with my solo act. I need him to feel like this is a romantic one-on-one. The rest of you? Just focus on that hobby he pins all his hopes on."

Beast Boy, currently in monkey form, raised his hand:"So let me get this straight—you want us to handle the robots, while you go toe-to-toe with the psycho?"

Blade waved at him like a teacher praising a clever student:"Perfect, Beast Boy, well done! Full marks! Yes, you're playing the game: 'Keep the killer bots from ruining the love story between me and my arch-nemesis.'"

Raven cut in with her dry, calm voice:"Blade, you're talking like a lunatic. This isn't a play—it's a trap."

Blade's smile widened behind his mask as he replied:"Raven, my sweetest dark heart, if it weren't a trap, the show would be boring. I live for traps. I love escaping them. It's what I do—along with cracking jokes and killing bad guys."

Cyborg let out a heavy sigh as he reviewed the guidance screen:"We're over Warehouse 47 now."

Blade raised his thumb with childlike excitement:"Perfect timing! Curtain up!"

"Perfect! Drop me like evil Santa Claus. And don't worry… I'll come back missing a finger or two, but alive. Just… distract the robots. Leave Slade to me. Trust me, I'm about to dance the dance of a lifetime with him."

Robin gave him a long look, as if memorizing his features before the drop.

"Don't die."

Blade winked with one eye and said:

"Ah, Robin, that would be an insult to my character and my one true talent... I'll be back, but I won't promise not to spark a tiny fire in your hearts."

They opened the side door, and Blade jumped lightly onto the warehouse roof. The cold wind hit his mask, and the moonlight cast a long shadow as he rolled to balance himself, then slowly stood up.

He turned his head back toward the departing aircraft and raised both middle fingers to the ship.

"Alright, Slade… let's dance."

And he slid quietly toward the dark ventilation shaft, whispering to himself:

"Showtime."

Blade landed softly on the cold floor inside Warehouse 47. The place was dark except for moonlight seeping through broken high windows. The scent of oil, iron, and rust mixed under his mask.

He drew his pistols and walked slowly, head slightly lowered, watching the corners.

"Oh… emptier than my heart. So tragic. Hey Slade, mind turning on the lights? I hate tripping over corpses."

Slade's voice echoed from the shadows—deep, calm, the kind that knows exactly how to stir tension:

"Blade… the fighting clown. At last, we meet without the Titan brats interrupting."

Blade stopped, tilted his head, and lazily raised his pistol:

"Man, that voice brings back memories… like annoying voicemails from my dead grandma. But go on. Amaze me."

Slade emerged from the darkness, his black-and-orange armor gleaming, sword on his back, mask covering only half his face:

"Do you know why I brought you here? Not to fight. I hate wasting time. You're not an enemy—you're an opportunity."

"Ah, opportunity! Will you offer me a part-time job? Or discount coupons for hero-killing?"

Slade didn't smile. He just stepped forward:

"You're smart enough to see the truth of this universe, Blade. All those fools… Titans, Justice, evil… childish nonsense. The universe is chaos, and power is the only law."

Blade let out a fake sobbing noise, as if about to cry:

"Boo-hoo-hoo…"

"Yaaah… Teenager philosophy class vibes! Keep going, keep going! I wanna write this on toilet paper."

Slade's eyes narrowed:"You laugh, but I'm serious. Join me. Money, power, freedom to kill, freedom to mock every law. You don't belong with those heroes trying to make you normal. You're a killer. A clown. We're made of the same stuff."

Blade twirled his pistol in the air like a conductor's baton:"Same stuff? Listen, my 'stuff' is decorated with hearts and shiny stars! Yours? Drenched in filth and bad parenting. We're not brothers. Don't say we're brothers. That's disgusting."

Slade took another step forward, his voice growing calmer:"But we are. You fight their laws just like I do. The difference is—I don't hide behind jokes. You're afraid of your truth."

Blade laughed loudly, a wild metallic laugh:"Afraid? Buddy, I wear bright red pants in combat. I fear nothing—except the electricity bill. And angry Superman. That one's legit."

Slade, as steady as a trained killer:"You'll grow tired of those heroes. They'll turn on you. You'll be left alone. With me, you won't be. You'll be free."

Blade suddenly lowered his gun slightly, voice softening with a hint of seriousness:"Free?"

Slade took the bait:"Yes. Free. No stupid orders. No moral codes. Just… our power and will."

Blade raised his other hand as if contemplating deeply:"Oh my god… total freedom? No rules?"

Slade stepped even closer, almost sure he had won:"Yes, Blade. Join me, and let's rule this chaos."

Suddenly, Blade pointed his gun at him with a mocking flourish:"Mmm… no! But I liked the pitch. It was like a political speech, only with more charisma and murder."

Slade stepped back slightly, his tone sharpening with anger:"You're wasting my time."

Blade bowed like a ballet dancer:"And you're wasting my oxygen. See? We're even."

Slade slowly draws his sword:"I'll return you to the Titans in pieces."

Blade spreads his arms:"Oh, Slade, at least take me gently! On our first date? You're so rough."

A red light flickers in Slade's mechanical eye:"Enough nonsense."

"Slade, my love. Nonsense is all I've got. Don't take it from me, please."

Slade tightens his grip on the sword, while Blade lazily strokes the trigger of his pistol with a finger.

"Listen, I'll give you one last chance…""Noooooo, don't! I'm terrible at making choices. Look at this outfit I picked! No last chances—make it fun."

Slade raises his sword, ready. Blade steps sideways lightly and responds:"Oh, you look serious. Perfect! I was getting bored."

Slade advances with heavy, confident steps, his gleaming sword reflecting the pale moonlight. His eyes lock on Blade like a hawk tracking a mouse.

Blade whistles a mocking tune, slowly returning his pistols to their holsters, lifting one eyebrow behind his mask:"Oooooh, big sword! Compensating for something small, Slade?"

Slade's grip tightens."That's the last time I tolerate your crap."

Blade draws his twin swords with an exaggerated theatrical flair, head tilted mockingly:"Ah! Finally, some honesty. I admit, this sword is a bit heavy for me... but don't worry, I'll use it to draw some fine artistic lines on your body."

Slade lunges suddenly—The clash of metal rings out, sparks flying as their blades collide. Slade shoves forward with power, forcing Blade to step back—But Blade laughs:"Ooooh, so aggressive. Is this your way of hugging? Do you really want to act on that weird tension between us?"

"You're a filthy clown.""Ahhh, the sweetest thing I've been called today! Keep going!"

They spiral into a whirlwind of rapid strikes, each barely blocking the other. The sound of blades echoes through the empty warehouse.

Slade – delivering a sharp side stab:"You talk too much."

"You'd make the perfect weapon. You kill without remorse. Chaotic. No real loyalty."

Blade, dodging the stab with a full spin and scraping both his swords across Slade's armor:

"Ooooooh, are you trying to adopt me? Sorry, already got a mom… her name's Raven, but thanks for the offer."

Slade grits his teeth and brings his sword down in a crushing arc—Blade blocks, staggering backward:

"Join me, and I'll free you from your delusions!"

Blade steps back twice, claps his swords mockingly against his palm:

"Wow, dude! My delusions are the best part of me! Without them, I'm just a sad guy with overpriced swords."

Slade steps in closer, slower this time, his voice low—but deadlier:

"Don't hide behind your sarcasm. You're afraid of the truth."

Blade shrugs with indifference:

"The truth? The truth is I'm hungry, exhausted, and I'm probably gonna have to kill one of us real soon. And honestly? This place stinks more than your philosophy."

Slade counters with a low thrust that nearly slashes Blade's stomach—but Blade leaps back, laughing:

"Ha! Nice! 9.5 outta 10! Lower the hips more next time!"

"I swear I'll cut your tongue out."

"Haha! Get in line, Slade. You'll need a reservation."

Their swords clash again, faces inches apart. Slade snarls:

"This is your last chance."

Blade smiles, his face leaning so close to Slade's it's almost a whisper:

"And what a beautiful chance... but nope."

With a sudden strike, he breaks free, stepping back slowly, sword held forward, his crooked laugh echoing through the air:

"Come on, Slade. Let's make this a fight worthy of my next movie."

Slade resets his stance, his eyes glowing with fury and cold-blooded hate:

"As you wish, clown."
