A son of Apollo among Bats

Chapter 2.

No one POV.

It has been two weeks since Will's mother died and he had spent those two weeks in a Gotham orphanage. The orphanage wasn't bad or anything it was quite nice actually but he didn't care, he often would sneak out at night and walk around the streets of Gotham. For no specific reason, he just couldn't sleep and he didn't wanted tot hink about his mom.
Tonight he has snuck out again, tomorrow was the cremation and then the reading of his mom's will.
Will didn't even knew that his mom had a will but considering that they lived in Gotham for close up to two years it actually made sense.
Passing a corner Will took a sip from his water that he had bought in a 24/7 just down the street but suddenly he could hear moaning coming from one of the alleyways and it wasn't the I feel good moan nope it was a I am in pain moan. Will didn't knew why but he ran towards the sound and as he reached the entrance he saw several thugs laying on the ground unconscious and a injured man leaning against the wall. The man wore a skin tight black suit with a blue bird on his chest and a Domino mask, it was Nightwing and a knife was stuck in his shoulder.
Great Will thought as he ran to the injured hero, he assest the situation and the first thing he realised was the smell of shit that was coming from the knife. Will's eyes widen if this is really shit then he can't leave the knife lodged in Nightwings shoulder.

Will :,,You got any medical supplies on you?"

Nightwing nodded :,,Right side third pouche."

Will quickly got to work finding some basic medical supplies, like bandages, a small bottle of rubbing alcohol and a cream against burns. It wasn't much but it will have to do.

Will :,,Lay down."

Will instructed and Will could see Nightwing hesitating.

Will :,,Hey you can either wait till that wound of yours starts to fester or you lay down and let me help you."

Will's firm voice suprised Nightwing, seeing no other way Nightwing lay down on his back as Will kneeled down besides him.

Will :,,I will have to pull the knife out."

Nightwing nodded and Will got to work, he held a bandage in one hand and gripped the knife tightly with the other.

Will :,,Take a deep breath."

The hero did and just a second later Will pulled the knife out and then quickly put the bandage on the wound applying pressure. Then he took his water bottle and put the cap against the wound and pressed to wash it out. Nightwing let out a groan but didn't scream as Will cleaned the wound. After washing it out with water Will pushed the bandage back on the wound, he grabbed the rubbing alcohol and uncapped it with his teeth.

Will :,,That is gonna hurt."

Then just like he did with the water he poured the alcohol on the wound, this time Nightwing couldn't supress a scream and tried to sit up. But Will quickly reapplied pressure on the wound and effectively pushing the hero back onto the ground.

Will :,,Just a question you don't have a phone by any chance do you?"

Nightwing was catching his breath as he stared at the blonde boy infront of him. How was he that calm, he had worked quick and effective and didn't even seemed bothered by the blood on his clothes or hands.

Will :,,Hey? You still there?"

Nightwing :,,Huh? Oh no worry I already send out a distress call."

Will :,,When will they be here?"

Nightwing :,,In a minute or-"

They were interupted by the sound of a engine followed by the squeaking of tires.
