Retrograde

Vol 8 - Fragile

Bruce thought of the million possibilites of the future. How desperatly he wanted to bring her into his life.
He waved goodbye to Bella as he dropped her off near her father's police car.
The car read Gotham PD.
Bruce looked at the streets around him and instantly realized.
He was in Gotham city.
He was free.
He started to remember every detail that seemed to have been blurred while he was in captivity.
Chief Swan... Barbara's father.
Gordon talking about his subordinate. Insulting Charlie at times.
He only never knew Charlie had a daugher.
A daughter so beautiful yet so fragile as Bella.
He knew what he wanted. A future with Bella. 
But, he needed to get back to his life if he wanted any future at all.
Bruce started to wonder about the technology and remembered the day when he fought against the perpetrator.
He wondered about the portal, the science brain inside him active, rambunctious.
It had teleportation abilities.
Which only meant one thing.
The perpetrator hadn't taken him far.
Only as far as he needed to go.
He was free to go home.
Only far enough to allow him to meet the love of his life.
He secretly felt thankful to the perpetrator.
But why hadn't anyone discovered that he was here?
The transformation! His super strengh, super speed.

He needed more answers.
"Oh and psychic abilites too" he muttered to himself.
He started to run towards the direction that he came from, desperate to get back to the perpetrator.

As Bruce reaches the cell, he calls for the perp, angry.
"SHOW yourself. I know what you've done" Bruce yelled, confidently.
"You've drugged me in ways I cannot explain"
Being away from Bella, Bruce's thirst was incontrollable. He needed a way of channeling his anger. Channeling it towards the perpetrator.
"SHOW YOURSELF! NOW!" Bruce yelled, uncontrollably as he started throwing the viles and chemicals on the wall, watching the glass shreds land on the floor.
Nothing. The perp wasn't there.
