Fics like human shield

María hadn't expected to see the Red Hood that night. Crime Alley had been quiet lately and usually that meant Hood was camped out on a roof, watching but not engaging. Hell, he should probably have turned in by now. But, around 4am, when María and Stella were the last ones out, and even they were getting ready to go home, he dropped heavily into the alley behind them. María knew he could move silently, if he wanted to. “When are you heading in for the night?” He asked. “Was gonna give it until 4:30.” She could tell by his body language that he was going to respond, but squealing tires had all of their attention on a car twisting around the corner. The windows were down. María had just enough time to register the flash of guns before Hood dragged her and Stella to the ground. He hovered over them, back to the street, as gunshots echoed off the buildings.
