Batman: Souvenirs

Chapter 2- Bat Blood

Hey Boss, I see them.

The pilot peered down through the glass as the helicopter hovered above the Batmobile.

Good. Keep it steady. Well attack once we reach the Gotham City Bridge.

The pilot nodded and continued to follow. The Bridge was only moments away.

The boss sat in the passenger seat of the helicopter and was giving hand signals to the other helicopter that was right behind them.

The two helicopters were as black as midnight and only a mere outline of them could be seen. They were special military manufactured stealth helicopters that were not only close to being invisible, but were silent as well.

The 2nd helicopter was packed with 4 henchmen who were all trained in the field of violence and were thirsty for Bat Blood.

The truck rolled onto the Bridge and the Batmobile was only seconds behind. The two vehicles cruised down the Gotham City Bridge without a clue.

Batman kept his eyes on the vehicle in front of him and was still baffled as to why he was asked to aid in transporting this nameless prisoner. What could be so special? Well, nevertheless the night was quiet and Batman needed something to do.

Now, Boss? the pilot asked

Lets do it

The 2nd helicopter drooped down over the Batmobile and slid their door open. Four henchmen jumped out and landed on the Batmobile.

Batman looked up and frowned. How could he have not seen this coming? Of course there was a reason he was assisting in the transport. Someone was going to try to kill whoever this prisoner was.

The henchmen all attached hooks under the speeding Batmobile. Batman looked from his left to his right, counting the number of intruders.

Each henchman jumped off the Batmobile and onto the pavement of the Gotham Bridge. They put the other end of the hooks onto the railings of the Bridge. The slack began to tighten.

Batman looked forward and saw another helicopter drop down in front of the transport vehicle. The helicopter began shooting at the transport vehicle.

Just then, the cables fully tightened and the Batmobile was restricted in its pursuit. The Batmobile flipped back and tore apart. Pieces of the vehicle scattered across the Bridge. Each henchman watched as they obliterated The Batmobile. Batman laid his concrete coffin unconscious. The henchmen approached him and lifted him up. The 2nd helicopter landed about 20 feet away from the carnage. The henchmen threw Batman into the helicopter and strapped him in. They jumped in and it disappeared into the night.

Meanwhile, the transport vehicle crashed into the railing. The two guards had been murdered. The first helicopter touched down onto the pavement. Out stepped The Boss. He walked around to the back of the transport vehicle and opened the doors.

The Bloody Prisoner looked out into the darkness and saw the impressionable figure before him. The Boss extended his hand.

The Prisoner accepted the assistance and stepped out onto the Bridge. He spits out a mouthful of blood and cocked his head to the side. The popping sound was loud and reflected the feeling of relief. He smiled at his rescuer and said Damn, brother. What the hell took you so long?
