I have lost something very important and I am not sure where I put it.

Which I guess is the point of losing something, you do not know where you put it. It was a pendent given to me by my mother before she was called out. She gave it to me as a reminder that she is still in the world and that she does what she does to keep me, her only family left safe. Its a jade pendent in the shape of a heart and I wear it for good luck.

When family is something you do not have the little things that they left become important. I have always kept the things my mother left me close. I see her sometimes in the city, during the night watching over me making sure this city does not hurt me. Its hard sometime, living alone in Gotham City. You cannot hide from the dangers of this city.

But it is not the thugs or the coruption, its the slow way this city sucks the hope out of you with each passing day.

Like you are slowing going insane.

But you're not.

You're just scared... scared to lose yourself.

However, the vigilantes that run through this city create a sense of hope that keeps the citizens feeling secure, when in reality the city is only getting worse because everyone feels too safe to question what is happening around them.

I have become a questioner in this sense of security and I teamed up with the police force in Gotham. That lived only a short time, though.

I found out that the police here do not care what happens to the citizens. There are a select few who still do, Commisioner Gordon for instance. But the others they only care about what the system can give them.

Organized crime at its finest.

But you cannot blame them, they all have families they need to keep safe.

So what do I do now?

I quit the Gotham City Police Department, but I did not lose my sense of mystery.

I have my own way of solving Gotham's crimes. I'm not a vigilante, not even close, and I am not sure that I want to be one. But I follow the clues and solve the crimes. You know the crimes the police cannot be bothered with, and the ones too petty for the Batman and the rest of the Batfamily to get involved.

My name is Skyler Lincoln, and this is my fight.
