I awake to heavy rain and thundering, basically your typical morning in Gotham. Slowly I drag myself off the mattress and I head toward my kitchen where I left my new clothes and weapons from last night. Seeing they were still on the couch I lean down and grab the handle of the bag and basically dragging it into my room. It's not that I hate mornings it's just I don't like waking up and I haven't eaten anything since breakfast yesterday so I am quite grouchy.

I open a drawer where I keep my hair brush and once I feel the cool white plastic handle in my hand I begin to brush the tangles out. Leaving my naturally wavy hair down I begin to pull on my new clothes. Once I place my mask, the final piece to my outfit I look in the mirror. The outfit is flattering to say the least. The corset gives my waist a nice shape and the pants are very flexible, allowing for easy movement. 

Grinning, I run over to the couch where I keep all my weapons. I secure two daggers on the outside of my thighs and I strap my machetes on both shoulders, making them cross at the back. I then put on my utility belt where my grappling hook, smoke bombs, gun, and knife are held. Quickly I head into the kitchen and grab an energy bar and a can of soda which I quickly down. Finally I'm ready to go and cause some mayhem in Gotham.

With that smile still tattooed on my face, I jump off the balcony and pull out my grappling hook where I swing off buildings, dropping my smoke bombs here and there. And laughing like a maniac at the screaming citizens. After hearing a few cop car sirens in the distance I quickly roll into an open window of an office building right above a bank. The moment I land in the office I crawl over to the back of an empty desk that is thankfully right next to an air vent. Making sure no one is watching I silently pull the cover off and stare into the dark void that awaits me. I'm not short I know that coming at five foot five, but it's my general build that people usually under estimate. I dive into the vent and manage to end up right over the waiting room for the bank.

Three guards armed. Easy.  I observe while keeping my breathing steady and slowing pulling out one of my machetes and my gun. Waiting until me guard is directly under me I knock the vent open and fall straight onto him, skewering him with my machete. Before the other two can even react I shoot one directly through the eyes and the other I rush over and stab him through the heart. "EVERYONE HANDS ON THEIR HEADS!" I yell pointing my gun at the crying and scared customers, "THEN ON THE FLOOR AND IF ANY ONE EVEN MOVES THEY GET A BULLET RIGHT HERE!" I laugh a crazed laugh while pointing to the part between my eyes. Looking around the room I realise just how messy my work was. The man who I jumped on had bleed out all over the carpet and the second's head had left blood and other bits surrounding it.

"Shadow your under arrest!" A man yells from behind me before feel a bullet? No not a bullet I've felt plenty of them before its more like a NEEDLE! Hits the back of my neck. How did I miss someone? I completely checked the area before and there was no other guard there. All I had was my thoughts before my world started to fade away into darkness.
