I can't find anything!!! I've been watching news feed and checking every kind of news and media and even asking the local scum about a man or kid who  looked like a clown and nothing's matching the jokers M.O. for the past 3 nights. Also with going out at night i've helped with the crime and helped try to find this guy named Roman Torchwick who i found out works with the a terrorist group called the white fang and i've been also paying attention to their movements as well, i can't make the mistake of leaving a threat alone and what's weird with them is that most activity had been in vale which is worrying me. Torchwick could help me find the joker since he technically runs vale's criminal underworld. The joker would have killed someone by now or try to draw me out for attention or looking for me since i've been on the news lately and in the newspapers. I check the time and it's 8:00 AM and classes begin in one hour but i need to find him and at the same time i need to keep up my charade of being a normal student. I decide to get dressed into my uniform and out of my pajamas. I decide to wash up also and i notice i'm starting to grow a beard but i still don't shave because i'll be fine and then i take out a pair of contacts and put them in. Instantly they begin to turn on.i figured out way to bring the batcomputer with me without wearing my batsuit. I invented a pair of contacts that work like the eyes in my cowl and once they were done running a analysis and making sure everything was working i head out. As i lock the door with my scroll and right when i turn around i'm tackled to the ground. I look up to see Ruby with her team following close behind her.

"good morning ruby", i say casually

"morning matt!!", she screams. I push her off me and stand up and brush myself off. We begin to head to our first class which is history and i could learn alot from that class. We finally make it to the class and the teacher zips over almost as quick as the flash with a thermos in his hand. I've already scanned it the first time i've met him to see what he drinks but it turns out it's only coffee LOTS of coffee.

"good morning matt" says professor oobleck. I've been taking the history class very important and apparently it has gotten the attention of the professor He's actually very impressed with how well i've already learned everything and can memorize everything. I have to give my photographic memory to that.

"Morning professor", i say back before he zips off. throughout the whole class he was talking about the Faunus wars and i've decided to take a full hour one night to learn everything about the race, including their weaknesses. With these in mind i get another point of view with history. I can relate to the faunus. After my parents death i was treated differently not just because i was rich but because i was odd after my parents death. I was extremely antisocial and was always reading a book and learning something new that would later help me in my crusade. After about 30 more minutes the bell rings and i head to combat class with Ruby's team. I've sort of befriended them. During the day in my free time and i'm not looking for the joker i spend my time talking and training with them but also at the same time i've learned there weaknesses for future reasons. I find a seat away from the front row and i wait for the first match. Mrs.glynda goodwitch who i met on my first actual day here but didn't know her name. The spinner lands on me and Yang and i'm already thinking of a way to beat her. Also ironically she's been wanting to fight me for curiosity. She jumps up with a happy screech.

"Is everything ok mrs. xiao long?", Glynda asks. She puts her hands down and rubs her head in embarrassment.

"Ok you both can....where did matt go?". Everyone looks at where i was sitting and then look at seat then back onto the arena to find me fully suited up and ready to fight with my cape covering my arms and legs. They all are a little freaked out but yang who actually looks more intrigued then freaked out. She heads to the locker rooms while i stand there waiting and still planing on a way to beat yang. I pull up her stats and videos i took with my contacts. Yang has a semblance that absorbs hits and adds to her strength which reminds me of superman with sunlight but hers includes getting hit over and over again but when she uses this she can be put into a state of anger which can cause mistakes. She also uses a boxing fighting style with some kicks but mostly boxing so i decide to use taekwondo and savate since they mostly specialize in kicks. I check my inventory quickly too and find out i only have one explosive batarang and five normal and only a couple of smoke pellets and other gear that can be used constantly. I pop up my aura levels also which i found out one day i actually do have too like everyone else. i guess it's another side effect of being transported to this universe. Yang finally comes out and she's already in a boxing stance ready to strike. I already know how her weapons work. There like my gauntlets but every time she throws a punch a concussive blast is shot out like a shotgun so every time she throws a punch i need to keep her hands from pointing at me. She has twelve shots in each gauntlet which means she has twenty four shots in all so i'll be spending most my time on a defensive with using  keysi to waste her shots and possibly end this quickly. I get into a keysi stance and wait for the match to begin.
