~Red Hood~

"The hell you say. You didn't set this up? Then whose party is this?!" A blond in a grey suit yelled at a bald man in brown and another man in blue.

"I thought it was you east-side losers. You already rolled over for the Black Mask and i figured you were gonna ask us in." The second man spoke up.

"Rolled over? The Mask whacked six of my crew in a month. Six. Some of my best people." The bald man protested

"So you set up this meet?" The blond asked

"No, i thought it was Chi Chi." The bald one gestured to the skull-capped man on the right.

"Wasn't my meet." Chi Chi shrugged

"Oh, the hell with this. I'm gone. You brain donors wanna hang around-" The second man stood

"Sit down, Freddie. It's my meeting." A voice sounded from the loft above

"It's him!" Chi Chi gasped

"Batman?" The blond questioned

"We didn't do nothing!" The bald man called upwards

"Well, we all know that's a lie." The Red Hood stepped out of the shadows and hoisted an AK-47

"Who the hell are you?" Chi Chi shouted

"Smoke him!" The blond raised his gun. The hood fired off a round into the table below. The eight drug lords dropped to the floor.

"I said, sit down."

"You wanna die? There's easier ways to kill yourself." Freddie shouted up at Red Hood

"Yeah, like yelling at the guy who's holding the AK-47. Listen to me, you drug-peddling scumbags. I will be running the drug trade from now on. You eight are the most prosperous street dealers in Gotham, I'm offering you morons a deal. You go about your business as usual, but kick up 40 percent to me. A much sweeter deal than the scraps Black Mask is leaving you. In return, you will have total protection from both Black Mask and Batman. But you stay away from kids and school yards. No dealing to children, got it? If you do, you're dead." Red Hood demanded

"Okay, crazy man, this is all very generous, but why in the hell should we listen to you?" The blond asked smugly. The vigilante tossed down a grey, blood covered duffel bag. The blond man zipped it open cautiously. The eight of them stared in horror. Chi Chi vomited at the sight.

"Damn." The bald man mumbled.

"Those are the heads of all of your lieutenants. That took me two hours. You wanna see what i can get done in a whole evening?" The hood cocked his rifle and aimed it down at them. "Make no mistake, I'm not asking you to kick in with me. I'm telling you." He let loose another round of bullets into the table. Everyone hit the floor again. Upon looking up, the Hood was gone.

"Forty percent works for me." Freddie spoke up.

~Batman~

"Go, go, go!" The tires of the truck screeched as the three men attempted their escape from Batman

"Where's Raymond and Denny?"
