One day in the city of Gotham, Bruce Wayne was getting a cup of coffee. Today was a very busy day for the entrepreneur. He missed the action in the night time, it's been awfully calm the past week, Not a lot of crimes, no murders, heck even the joker hasn't pulled on a plan since ten days ago. Bruce thought he was planning something big, so he kept track of everything.

His thoughts got interrupted as the cloak hit 7pm, meaning his working hours are over. He finished his coffee and got out to get to his house so that he can rest for a while before his job as the infamous batman started.
He drove off to his house while looking for any crimes that might come into view.
Nothing.
After about 15 minutes he arrived and was barking his car. He got out and walked to the door of his mansion, and so he got inside.....
after exactly an hour. Bruce was inside the batcave, the man was getting ready for his duty as a hero, he got into his batsuit before checking the monitors on his larg screen. He went through the sketchier places first, as they're known for having lots of crimes and drug dealers, though they were all clear. Then he went on checking some public places such as banks, parks, a few shops, and of course jewelry stores. Nothing.
Batman was getting slightly anxious that nothing is happening, sure he can always put criminals to justice, and also stop the joker's shenanigans, but he felt that something was off.... like something big was about to happen.
"Just like the calm before the storm." He thought out loud.
He kept going through the monitors for about 10 minutes, until something caught his attention. "A robbery." He said while narrowing his eyes. This is not what he expected the big event would be, but he might take care of it as well. He went to the batmobile and hopped into it then went off to take care of this little problem, not expecting anything more to happen other than the usual.
After a few minutes of driving he got to his destination, the three thiefs still inside the jewelry store.
"Hurry up and grap that necklace!" One of the three men said. "I'm on it." Said the second and seemingly the youngest, he was about 19-21. He grabbed the golden necklace and got back to the other two.
The first man was in his thirties, and the third was a middle aged man. They were storing the jewelries in two backpacks.
"I don't get it, why are we doing this. Can't we just find ourselves a job?" Said the young man, "THIS is our job, Jeffrey..." said the man in his thirties. The man now called Jeffrey sighed "I wish I could quit" he mumbled quietly, irritated.
Batman was observing the scene from one of the windows (which was opened by the thiefs), making sure not to get spotted. He hummed, then got into action.
