Part 14: Back In Gotham (1)

[Y/n POV]


It's midnight in Gotham City. I had came back home to Gotham for some tech and the Batpod but decided to stay to clean up the streets a bit and wait for those hitmen. Im sitting on the tallest building in Gotham, Wayne Tower. I walk to the edge and let myself fall. About half way down I start to glide down.


As I'm gliding I hear a woman scream in an ally. I land on the rooftop above to see what is going on. I turn on detective mode and see a woman backed up to a wall and a man in a torn up strait jacket with a knife standing a few feet in front of her. I jump down and land safely behind the man.


???: "Well if it isn't Batman." The man says still facing the woman.


(Y/n): "Put the knife down and you will be taken into custody with your bones intact."


The man turns around and reveals scars on his forehead and a crazy look in his eyes. I recognize him almost immediately. Victor Zsasz. Dad had problems with him back when he wore the mask.


Zsasz: "I never did get a chance to add the first bat to my collection of marks. But I guess you will have to do."


(Y/n): "You don't want to do this Zsasz." I say standing my ground.


Zsasz: "I believe I do. After I add this little pig to my tally I will put you as well."


Woman: "Please just let me go."


Zsasz: "Enough talk, time to die."


Zsasz lunges at the woman. I act quick and pull out my grapple gun and shoot it at his hand. It hooks into his hand and he drops the knife in pain. I pull him towards me and I uppercut him knocking him unconscious.


Woman: "Thank you." She says almost in tears.


(Y/n): "Call the police and get home quickly and safely."


The woman runs out of the ally and out of sight. I get to tying up Zsasz and leaving him for the cops. I get finished tying him up when I see a red dot on my chest. A sniper. I grapple up but the shot still hits my chest. I get to the top of the building and take cover. I check myself for a wound but the bullet hit my armor. I throw a remote controlled batarang with a camera and throw it to check where the shot came from. I see him about a mile away.


I fly the batarang back and make my move. I throw down a smoke bomb and dive down to street level. I then call in the Batpod with a press of a button. It drives to me and stops right Infront of me.



I get on and drive through the streets and allies. I get close enough and hop off. I grapple up the building to the shooter's location. I get their and find no one. I do find a bullet casing on the ground with the word Deadshot on it. Another one of my dad's  old friends. I thought he quit to be with his daughter. I pick up the casing and get back to the Batpod.


I drive through the streets to get to the cave only to get a wall of fire block an entire street. I look up and see a man in a jetpack shooting flames onto the street below. Guess I have been meeting all of dad's ' buddies '.


Firefly: "BATMAN! TONIGHT *gasp* YOU AND THIS CITY WILL BURN!"


(Y/n): "You won't like where this is headed Lynns!"


Firefly: "OH DON'T WORRY, *gasp* IM NOT THE ONLY ONE YOU HAVE TO DEAL WITH TONIGHT. HAHA."


Before I can try and catch him he flies away. I hear the sirens of the fire department coming down the street. I drive back to the cave to try and see how many of these guys are out right now.


Time Skip After Drive


I get back to the cave to see Alfred on the computer.


Alfred: "I just finished talking with the commissioner, she says that quite a few super criminals have surfaced within the last few hours. She has also ordered a city wide evacuation."


(Y/n): "Okay. I did have a run in with a few of those criminals on the way here. Did she say how many are out there?"


Alfred: "She said that they have confirmation on Firefly and Deadshot."


(Y/n): "These must be the assassins that are hunting me."


Alfred: "What do you plan on doing about it."


(Y/n): "I just do what dad would do. You might want some coffee Alfred, it's going to be a long night."


Alfred: "Yes. Probably a good idea. I will stay on the computer for assistance."


(Y/n): "Alright. I'm going to need the shock gloves."


Alfred: "They are with your father's old gadgets."


I walk to dad's old gadget storage and grab the gloves. I activate them to see if they work still. I punch my fists together and I see the electricity spark. I turn them off and hop back on the Batpod. I drive out and head back to the city.


Time Skip Back To Gotham


I get back and the streets are cleared. Only cop cars are left driving on the once busy streets. I look to the skies and see black smoke. It must be Firefly. I was about to drive when I see a swarm of rats run and attack a few cops on the street. I follow the rats to a man with dirty orange boots and gloves, green trench coat, and a gas mask. He also has a staff with a lantern on it.


???: "Its ok my little friends. It's just fresh meat." He says to the rats.


(Y/n): "Put the staff down or you will regret it."


???: "From where I'm standing, you're the one who will regret it. If I don't kill you tonight then someone else will."


(Y/n): "Don't count on it."


I throw a smoke bomb at him and charge. As I run at him the army of rats start to climb on me. They start to bite at my armor and try to bite at my skin. I hit them of and realize I can't take this guy head on. The smoke clears around him so I grapple away.


I stand on top of a building and see the guy and his army of rats run away. I decide to radio Alfred.


(Y/n): "Alfred I need you to add a new name to the list of super criminals."


Alfred: "Oh goodie. Another crazy running on the streets." He says sarcastically.


(Y/n): "Code name this one The Ratcatcher. He is male, name is unknown for now."


Alfred: "Alright the file as been made."


At that moment I see the Bat signal light up the sky. Seems Commissioner Gordon want to chat. I go back to the Batpod and drive to GCPD.
