The next day, Bruce turns on the news on from his Batcomputer.
"This is Vicki Vale from the Gotham Gazette. Last night there was an incident at a manor. Video cameras caught a glimpse of what appears to be a man dressed up as a bat. Also, 15 dead bodies were found next to 15 bat-shaped emblems. Authorities are now in search of this elusive "Batman."
"Seems like you made the news," Lucius says.
"It's a start, Lucius," Bruce says sharpening a bat-shaped knife.
"You really think Batman is going to change Gotham?" Lucius says.
"Of course not. I believe he is going to change the world."
"So what is your next move?"
Bruce places his hand on a hand scanner which opens a chamber.
"Come with me."
Bruce and Lucius walk into the chamber. The chamber is filled with knifes shaped like bats, rifles, pistols, machine guns, bombs, and grenade launchers.
"You have certainly been busy," Lucius says.
"They think of me as a legend Lucius. A symbol that punishes those who deserve to be punished. That's what I can become."
"But do you have to be so harsh?"
"The world is a harsh place, Lucius. I learned that the hard way."
"I know that you're angry at the world for taking your parents away but-"
"Oh I am not angry at the world. I am angry at myself for not doing anything about it."
"You were just a kid. There is nothing-"
"That doesn't mean s***! Sooner or later they have to find out that the world is dark place."
"There is still hope."
"Bulls***!"
"Alright so tell me this. What is your next move?"
Bruce pulls out several bombs. He also pulls out a pair of pistols.
"I am going to find the leader of the child and drug suppliers and end him for good."
