It was dark out well past the hours of daylight,  The Wayne family one of the richest in the world (and thus highly coveted) were making their way home after watching a movie in the theatre it was a gift as Bruce the son of Martha and Thomas Wayne had his 8th birthday. They had gone to Japan as it was his dream to see his Idol All might in action and even if he never got to he was content with the time he spent with his parents.

Thomas: What a movie.

Martha: I hadn't known special effects had gotten so advanced since I've last seen a movie

Thomas: If I hadn't known better I'd have thought it was real he laughs

Bruce: It was SO cool with the lasers and space swords!

He starts imitating a lightsaber before his stomach rumbles

Bruce: Mom, Dad I want to have a meal outside before we head back home.

Martha: I'm sorry Bruce but it's terribly late already I think it's best for us to head back to the holiday home and have Alfred whip something up for us.

Bruce: But mom..

Thomas: Come on Martha it's the boy's birthday if he wants to eat out let's allow him to, we're only in a country like Japan every so often it could be a chance to try out cultural food!

Martha: Well if we must.

The family headed through an alleyway notorious for plenty of muggings and criminal activity.

Martha: Thomas I don't think we should be here at this time.

Thomas: Don't worry it'll be fine we've been through this path plenty of times it's nothing new.

Martha: Never this late at night though.

Bruce: It's cold

Thomas: We can't have you catching a cold now can we

He hands Bruce his jacket

Bruce: Thanks dad!

Martha: How much longer Thomas I can barely see at this time.

Thomas: Should only be a couple more minutes it's not that big of an alley.

Bruce: I'm so hungry.

???: Drop everything onto the floor and put your hands into the air.

Behind the family a mugger had been tailing them with a firearm and a quirk which allowed him to create bullets out of thin air.

Thomas: Hey hey let's calm down here we're just passing through

The Mugger fires a warning shot right next to Thomas's foot

???: Did you listen to a word I said? Drop everything on the floor or I'll blast out your brains!

Martha: Please calm down sir we'll give you everything just don't hurt us.

Bruce: Mom I'm scared

Martha: it'll be fine honey we'll handle it.

Mugger: Look just put everything on the floor before I shoot you.

Thomas: Right away.

Thomas started walking over to the mugger with his hands up, he put his wallet and cash on the floor before slowly backing up.
