History: (Daredevil I#296 (fb) – BTS) –
Spear, a ninja loyal to the
Hand, was recruited by the Chaste. His training was rushed due to times
being
desperate and the heroic ninjas had no idea that he was loyal to their
dark
enemies.
(Daredevil I#296) – The Chaste's Stone, Spear,
Flame and Star, arguing about tactics now that Stick was dead, attacked
a Hand warehouse
in New York City, where Izanami and Jonin as well as many ninjas were
battling Daredevil while keeping several civilians strung up, including
Christine Harris, Jerry "The Whale" Sabini, Derek Tully and Pamela
Sennet.
After defeating the ninjas, the Chaste liberated the civilians then
Spear
battled Izanami before she fled outside, where the police waited and
Izanami
was shot and killed. The Chaste quickly faded away. In civilian
clothes, Stone
soon reached out to Matt Murdock, saying they needed further help from
the
Hand, and Daredevil soon joined the Chaste as they waited for Izanami
to come
back to life and attack them. Spear turned on the others, knocking out
Star as
Izanami attacked. A massive fight broke out and Izanami tried to kill
Daredevil
but Spear rushed in to do it himself. Daredevil defeated Spear then
used his
weapon to kill Izanami. Stone comforted Daredevil, reminding him that
Izanami
wasn't even human.
