Chapter Text
Keystone City. This coastal city is well known for different reasons.
Well, it's a city just next to the ocean, so the weather is always nice enough to go for a swim. It is also a city with enough population (est 789 169) so you could sometimes never see the same person twice. And if you do, the population is pretty friendly, and they will start a conversation with you. Finally if you see them enough and get friend with them, they will offer you some opportunites. Some are pretty neat, like a new appartment next to the sea, (like do you know the price of these ? Of course you won't say no) or a job opportunity. Finally, if you foolishly accept you will end up in an armed robbery. Deep down, you know all of this is pretty pointless. How could some regular bullets stop them ? You don't know who I'm talking about ? I'm talking of course of the Flshhhhhh-
What was that ?
You turn arround and all you can see is the shadow inside of the vault. So you turn again and start putting the money in your bag. With this, you will be able to retire way early. Plus, you are not doing really any harm, the bank is in maintenance and it's the middle of the day, so everyone is working and you can make noise, no one can hear you.
And it's at that moment that you realise. You have been filing your sport bag for two minutes, and it still feel light, as if you never put any money in it. This is the moment that you see a red.... V with a pile of cash next to him ?
No. It can't be, why would HE be here ?
At this point, you have exactly three options.
- You turn yourself in and hope that he's in a good mood
- You try and fight him
- You just run for your life man, why would anyone choose the other two options ??? You are not THAT level of crazy
So you run up the stairs and you see that all of your friends are unconscious ? And they have blades mark all over their bodies ??
Oh my god, OhMyGod, omygod, ogod, ogd
Now you know, it all adds up. The freaking NIGHTWING and the demon ROBIN are in town and they are already working, even in the middle of the DAY (do they not sleep ?) You run towards the door and you hear a loud "TT"
"What do you want man", you ask while trying to not crumble
"Criminals are truly a superstitious cowardly lot. It's really a shame that my blade only encounters the weak of your kind in this city", the Robin says, will he put his swords up in the sky
"Robin no ! You do not kill a thug, especially when he haven't done anything, look at his bag, it's completely empty !" Nightwing says while running toward Robin
"Yes man, thank you, I will run back to my flat and never speak to them never again. I... I swear", you say hopefully.
"Of course you can go man, but I will have to ask you to leave the bag here" Nigthwing respond
His response seems unbealivable. You stay dumbfounded for a while and the first word that you can think of is "F...Fo....For real ?"
"I have a reputation to maintain of the nice one of the family you know" said Nightwing with a warm in his voice
"Ah ! You the nice one ?? Do I have to remember you that YOU are the one that dragged me to this pointless trip ?" yelled Robin " You can tell him the truth, the police are wainting for him just behind this door and ..."
- "... AND I hoped that we could use this distraction to escape easily. You know, since you are the TruE heIr tO tHe BatMaN mAntLe, that we are not really welcomed since what happened the last time the family was here and the police doesn't want any vigilantes" Nightwing explained
"Last time ? The red hood is just a former shell of himself, he is nothing to the batman, I don't see why he have anything to do with this ! " mumbled Robin "I will wait for you outside, have fun with them"
And in a instant, he disapeared. You don't know how he did this.
" So, where were we ?" asked Nigthwing " Oh yes, you were giving yourself in to the police. You know, you should consider yourself lucky, you encontered a bat and didn't get any bones broken, not everyone can say the same."
And this is how you swear to never try any criminal activity. But now is a bit to late.
