tws:cursing, drug mention, slight violence

I was faced with a pale white man standing over me, shades of grey and black clothes and a grey knife in hand. Said knife was pointed at my throat.

"Now now listen hear you little bitch- just hand over your wallet and we can be done with this." He gestured to my pockets as if to demonstrate what I should be doing.

I groaned silently as I gave the man a once over. His skin was whiter than most, dark spots under his eyes with a strong stubble. He looked like a drug addict which would explain why he was trying to mug me.

"Look, dude, I am a young adult living in Bludhaven trying to get college done with and am working two jobs to make due. You really think I have money in a wallet to carry around." I was basically face palming now. I had just finished a double shift at 'Toby's Dine and Wine' and was already exhausted.

Thats when the man decided to lunge at me, barely giving me a chance to dodge out of way. Realizing what I did he turned back towards me knife ready to stab and slash. Taking another step back I tripped over something I didn't see, falling on my backside. As the man started towards me a shadow feel from above the alley.

"Its not nice to pick on people." The shadow remarked before flying into morion. Swift punches and kicks were thrown as the attempted mugger sloppily tried to dodge, ultimately failing and ending up as a bruised heap on the ground.

The shadowed man took a step towards me and into the light. A black skin tight suit cladded his body, a dark grey bird like symbol on his chest. The symbol and costume clicked in my head as I stared at Bludhavens resident vigilante, Nightwing. A smile came up to his face as he offered me a hand.

Scuffing of soles against concrete met our ears though as the attempted mugger took Nightwings distraction as an opportunity to escape. Nightwing only sighed in response as he turned his gaze back to me.

He once again offered me his hand, this time I actually took it. His face turned from a dull white to a beautiful tan, the symbol on his chest a dark blue. Words I had been hearing for years clicking and matching the thousands of shades that suddenly surrounded me. Nightwing also seemed taken aback, so much so that his grip loosened enough for me to fall back on the ground.

I looked back up only for my eyes to met those of his mask. "We're....We're soulmates." I was barely able to say those simple words as the shock of the situation sunk in.

"Yeah...I guess we are..." He seemed to be as shocked as I was until he realized that I was still on the ground. For a third time he offered me his hand. I grabbed it and this time he pulled me to my feet fully. He stood in front of me and was looking me over. Weither he was checking me out or looking for any injuries the mugger could have left I don't know.

A small childlike giggle left his lips. His hand still holding mine when he enters a mock bow, taking our still connected hands close to him, before kissing my knuckles.

"Shall I escort you home my dear?" He looked up and met my eyes, even if I could only see a mask.

"That would be pleasant kind sir." With a small nod he wrapped his left arm around my waist as I clung onto his neck, before he shot his grapple gun to the top of the building.

And with that soulmate took me to safety where we could get to know each other and this new beautiful world of color.
