Chapter 8

I didn't get a chance to ask more because we lost the car.
"Check for a trail" Dick said 
I bent onto my knees. Dick did the same.
"This way" he said pointing down a dark street
He led me into an empty street. The only building was a huge warehouse. It had graffiti all over it. The windows were either boarded or shattered.
"Grapple up" Dick said then he disappeared
I followed. Dick was looking through a hole which at some point was probably a window. Inside was a man in a torn business suit he had a bag over his head. I looked back but Dick wasn't there. I looked down and realized that he was lowering himself down into the building.
I hooked the grapple to the ledge and followed. Glass crunched as I landed on the ground. I silently followed Dick to the man. He whipped the bag off the mans head.
"Bruce?" I asked in disbelief
"Hey kid" he said "get me out of here"
"What happened" Dick asked as he started on the ropes.
"First get me out"
An echo shattered the silence.
"Hide"
I dove behind some crates.
I heard a group of maybe five men approach. I saw four of them were dressed in all black. The biggest one was the one that gave me my cuts with his rings. The fifth man wore a business suit. One half of his face was normal the other was horribly disfigured it looked reddish and the look in his eye was murderous. This was the man who used to be Harvey Dent.
"Hello Mr Wayne" he said his voice wasn't like I expected I thought it would be raspy but it was quite smooth.
"Harvey please let me go" Bruce pleaded
"I don't know anyone by the name of Harvey."  He said
"Your Harvey dent" Bruce said "my friend!"
"Harvey dent is DEAD" he yelled the last word
"What do you want" Bruce asked "I'll give you money if you want it"
"I don't want money" two-face said
"I want just-"
I suddenly did something so stupid. I shifted my position which made the crates move.
"Who's there" one of the big guys said
"Check it out" two-face ordered
I ran. The men yelled and cursed.
"Meet on the roof" Dick said in the radio
"Sure thing" I huffed
I shot my grapple praying it would hook. I was whooshed up and off the ground onto the roof.
"You distract them" Dick said "I'll get Bruce"
