Red Hood and the Outlaws #5 (2015)

Jason recalls how he had taken part in an All-Caste ritual called the cleansing which involved being submerged in water for an extended period. Jason was the first human in a thousand years to survive it, and Ducra joked at the time that she couldn't tell if it was because he was worthy or stubborn. After completing his training as an assassin, Jason still harboured vengeful feelings. He wanted to kill the Joker), and make Batman) suffer for failing to avenge his death. Ducra responded that one day, his heart will shine brighter than the dark fury inside him, and that day will be glorious.

In that moment, Jason realizes that Ducra was right, and that now he can rise above his feelings of vengeance. He draws his own blood with the All-Blades and begins mercilessly attacking the Untitled. He warns that the truce between the Untitled and the All-Caste ended when Ducra and the others were murdered, and now he plans to kill every last member of the Untitled.

Crux grabs Roy up by the scruff of his neck and taunts him that without his arrows, he is just a burnout in a beanie. Taking his cue from the insult, Roy wraps his quiver of arrows around the creature's arm and then leaps out of its reach. The quiver has been equipped with a self-destruct mechanism, and it blows up along with every arrow Roy has left. Fortunately, it works, and Crux is rendered unconscious. However, he drags Roy down beneath the surface of a frozen lake as he falls.

Jason realizes as he makes the killing blow on the Untitled that he still must discover who it was that sent him after her, how many Untitled are left, and whether or not he's just fallen into the middle of a civil war among the Untitled. As he looks up, he realizes that the Untitled is reverting to her human form as the town sheriff, just as the townsfolk are approaching to find him standing over her mutilated corpse.

At the lake, Starfire miraculously crashes through the ice and flies both Roy and Crux out of the water. She explains that while Crux might have been able to render her powerless permanently if she were merely Tamaranean in physiology, she was experimented on while in captivity to the point where her power is beyond that of her people. She turns on Crux and prepares to unleash a likely fatal blast, despite Roy's protests. She is prevented, though, by the appearance of Jason running through the trees toward them. He warns that regardless of what's going on with them, they should run, because the entire town is on his heels.
