Nanda Parbat, Tibet, 14 years ago. A 25 years old Bruce Wayne is in the last phase of his training with the League of Assassins, led by the immortal Ra's Al Ghu, in ninja methods and purging his fears. He then learns that the League knows about Gotham and, believing the city is beyond saving, intends to destroy it. Bruce rejects the League and its edict that killing is necessary, burning down their temple during his escape. Gotham City, present day. Batman is trying to stop a mad scientist named Jonathan Crane from creating a toxin that would bring out the greatest fears of Gotham's citizens. By interrogating him, Batman finds out that he is working for the League of Assassins. Left speechless for a moment, Crane injects him with a dose of his fear toxin. Batman starts to see vision of his parents die, visions of Alfred telling him that he didn't fulfill his father's legacy and visions of his training with the League of Assassins, until it all goes dark. When he wakes up, he is in an abandoned cell with in front of him none other than Ra's Al Ghul, head of the League of Assassins. Batman must now escape from the prison and, with the help of Robin, stop the plans that the League has in store for Gotham.
