In the Slums of Gotham.

"AAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" was all that was heard from a dark alleyway as a random thug was thrown out of it with a heavily bloodied and bruised face. He pathetically crawled away from the alley until reptilian tail wrapped around his leg and dragged him back into the darkness and a sickening crunch could be heard.

"No, please, please, please. I - I told you everything about Cobblepot, wh - what more do you want from me!?" The second thug screamed toward the heavily armoured figure in front of him. The figure simply grabbed the figure by his throat and began to tighten his hand around the thugs neck.

"I want to go to Hell" was what all the figure said through a heavily distorted voice before he easily snapped the thugs neck effectively killing him. The figure growled smelling Batman's scent coming his way, the figure suddenly turned fully invisible and the sound of flapping wings could be heard leaving two corpses for the Dark Knight of Gotham to find.

The figure was seen flying above a location that the thug told him about, it was a nightclub known as the "Iceberg Lounge" personally owned by Oswald Cobblepot, AKA the Penguin, he was a mob boss and a dangerous one at that.

The figure pulled out a sound tong and lightly tapped it against his arm guard, and through the figures left eye, he could see through the building and saw the amount of men that are under Cobblepot's employment. About 50 - 60 men in the nightclub doing lecherous things to the women in the nightclub, and of course, Penguin himself.

The figure growled hatefully, not wanting to kill the women in the club, the figure simply walked up to the two men guarding the entrance and growled at them.

"Who the hell are you, freak?" one of the men sneered toward the figure in front of him.

"You lost or somethin' asshole?" another man questioned holding his gun toward the figure, in the blink of an eye, the figure grabbed a large two bladed axe with the back of the axe blade being smaller than the other. 

The whole handle looked to be made from oak with the handle having golden engraved into the whole handle and pommel. The cutting edge for the axe had several Nordic runes on it. The figure swung his axe into the first thugs chest causing him to scream in pain, the other thug shot toward the figure, but the figure used the man he killed as a meat shield to take the bullets, the gun ran out of bullets causing the thug to gasp in fear when the figure's shadow loomed over him.

"N - no... please." the man quietly begged, the figure said nothing as he swung the axe toward the mans neck easily decapitating the thug's head from his body. The figure easily destroyed the door to see a room full of men. 

They didn't react fast enough to see the figure as snapped his fingers and a large war hammer with a short handle, the entire hammer was covered in lightning as it crackled violently

They didn't react fast enough to see the figure as snapped his fingers and a large war hammer with a short handle, the entire hammer was covered in lightning as it crackled violently.

The figure threw the hammer toward the group of men around a poker table as released a chain of lightning since the men had piercings on every portion of their faces, the lightning connected to the metal and electrocuted the men causing them to scream in agony as the lightning increased the skin of their faces began to peel off to show the facial muscles underneath before their heads exploded.
