A world without Batman

It was late. I was running on fumes but that's what you get for going to college and crime fighting. My dad, John Stewart, had retired his lantern ring soon after Batman died protecting the world from Darksied. After Batman died, a few new faces joined the league. These new faces made a mockery of the league. Superman and Wonder Woman left. Soon my dad and mom (Hawkgirl) did as well. 

Soon crime rose. The streets flooded with hate. I knew something need to be done. The symbol of the Bat needed to shine. Clearly none of the Robins could handle it. Except Nightwing who is stil MIA along side his wife Harley Quinn. Yeah I know who they all are. Damian Wayne has recently taken the mantle but honestly I see him killing people soon. The world needs Batman... The real thing but he's not coming back... So the world needs a new symbol but one that is similar. So I dawned the identity of the signal.

At the sametime a small resistance known as the Revinant has risen bring with them a new Justice League called Phoenix Shield. A team consisting of metahumans. Kids with no experience. We see how this goes.

--------------------------------------------------------------
To continue my original thought. I was out hunting a lead on a new Joker gang in Gotham.

"Chuckles move your ass!" A thug said.
"Im going. But I heard the league was back." The other said.
"They aint coming back. The new league aint care about us."

I was ready to pounce. My power engaged. As i began to jump a black pit opened in the ground and looked like it ate the guy.

"Chuckles?"

The pit reopened spitting the man out. He laid almost dead. His skin was snow white.

"Damn it. Who the hell is here?"

The thug was getting scared. I was too. All of the sudden the pit ate him as well.  I looked around and say a woman in dark purple/black clothing.

I jumped down. "Freeze" I yelled to the lady.

She looked at me. She had blonde hair. One green and one blue eye. She was pretty pale but she was cute.

"Who you telling to freeze Batman wanna be?" She said in a weird jersey accent.

She walked to me with a sway in her hips. Her thighs were thick. Honestly I was attracted to her already... But fuck I cant show it.

"You with thw league?"
"Depends on what league you mean." She said with the same tone.
"The justice league."
"No. Are you?"
"Hell no. Let me guess, you are apart of the Shield right."
"Why do you wanna know?"
"Don't waste your time with them. Teams fail you. That's why i work alone."
"Sure that's the reason."
She moved right up on me. Her lips were right there.
"Who are you?"
"Ember. You?"
"The Signal."
This escalated quick.
"Look. I..." I fell into a dark pit. I looked up and she looked down at me.
"Sorry but you are in my way. And your boner is a bit distracting."
She began to close the pit. I activated my thrusters and flew out. But I noticed she was gone. "Fuck."
