The Knights

Enter Nightwing

How did he get here? Where were the others? God, Dick was in pain. What he could remember was the party that Bruce put on for the entire Bat-Family, and then a bright light, and after that? Nothing. It wasn't the first time he's been in this situation, he and the rest of the Robin's have had this phenomenon happen to them.He looked around, seeing what looked like a park. He was sitting against a tree in his normal attire, jeans, a white shirt, a short sleeved grey over shirt, and a belt with a bat on it. He stood up, not wanting to just sit there all day and do nothing. He didn't know where he was or where he was going, but the best thing to do was to get some information, and stealth was the best way to get it.

                                                   New York Public Library

It wasn't hard to find this place after asking a local man where it was. He looked around, not surprised that not many people were there. He walked to the young librarian at the front desk. She was a very young woman, a year younger than himself. He leaned on the counter, in waiting for the girl to notice. "Please do not lean on the counter." She said without looking up at Dick. He raised an eyebrow, shook his head while smiling, and got off as she asked. She looked up as him with a frown. "Now, is there something I can help you with?" She asked.

He took a minute to look at her, she had strawberry blonde hair, brown eyes, a curvy body, and she was about 5'6. "Yeah, I was wondering if I could use one of your computers, Ms?" he asked smiling. She gave him that same look, not interested in what he was there for.

"You can use one if you want, it really doesn't matter to me if you do or not." She said. Dick's smile wavered a little at her tone of voice. 'Man, is she for real?' He thought to himself. I mean, he was Nightwing, Batmans first apprentice/ Son. And in his appinion quite the ladies man. He walked to one of the few computers that were still open, hoping to find some information on this world.

                                 Two hours later

It's been two hours since Dick started to surf the internet, looking for all the hot news rumors, and trends. He leaned that just like his world, there were heroes. Tony Star, AKA, Iron-Man was a hero in the open. He was a self proclaimed genius. Then there was Bruce Banner, AKA, The Hulk. He was a scientist who was exposed to Gama radiation, due to that, whenever he gets angry he gets all big and green. Dick learned that there were people called mutants, those that are born with the X-Gene and had many different powers. People like this were hated by the public. He learned that as time went on many, many heroes showed up, and with them, more villains. He could see from the corner of his eye that the girl at the desk would always take a peek at him from time to time. He smirked as he shut the computer down and headed to the door. He waved to the girl as he finally left. 'Maybe... hopefully, she is interested. Well, who can blame her? I'm just awesome.' 

 'So, the question is, what now?' He asked himself as he continued to walk. 'What do I do from here. There are many people out there who'd surly run me out of town if I start heroing.' He thought as he walked the streets. Suddenly, out of nowhere a piercing scream accrued. He looked around swiftly to find the source, but couldn't see where it was coming from. Running to the direction he heard the scream, he saw that seven men had cornered a girl of about seventeen. It was late, and almost time for the sun to set. He ran into another part of the alley and quickly yet carefully took his cloths off, to reveal that all this time he was wearing his trademark red and black uniform. He jumped from wall to wall as he made his way to the roof. As he perched there he saw her trying to defend herself.

"Come on little lady! Lest see what you got under that pretty nice skirt of yours." One of the thugs said with a perverted grin.

"Yeah, give it to her boss." Another said as the 'Boss' took a hold of her arm. Nightwing glared, angry at such disrespect. 

"Out for a late night stroll boys?" He said threateningly. They looked around, trying to find who the voice belonged to. "Right behind you, Dumb asses!" He shouted. The looked behind them and up, only to see the white of his eye mask. A few of them screamed in fear. Others just looked frightened. He jumped into the air and as he made his decent, he kicked one of he thugs in mid-air. Nightwing took quick work of the villains, not getting too much resistance. As he looked to the girl he kept his stoic face. "Are you OK, Ma'am" He asked. She dumbly nodded. He nodded, and seeing his work was done he turned to leave. The girl suddenly shouted.

"Who are you?" She asked. Nightwing looked back at her and smirked.

"The name..." He said, giving a short pause. "Is Nightwing."
