Gotham City

As the bus pulled up to Gotham's station, I jolted asleep. I thank the bus driver and threw my bag over my shoulder and walked to the address of the apartment my uncle sent me. He bought me an apartment! I realized this when I opened the door and no one was there. There was a note though, explaining how this apartment was now mine and how he would cover the expenses and stuff. Okay... I walked to the bedroom and put my clothes and stuff away. I opened the fridge and there was food inside. Okay they seriously didn't have to do this for me. I sent my uncle a huge thank you text. I put my coat on and rain boots and walked out into the Gotham night. I knew from my uncle that there was a nice cafe around here. I cut through and alley so the walk would be shorter. "Look at this Bob, who's this lovely lady." "I don't know, Tony, but I'd just LOVE to get to know her better" I started to run but they caught me and pushed me against the hard brick wall. Oh my God, they were going to rape me. I kept kicking and screaming, but it seemed like no use. Bob kept smashing his lips to mine and putting his grimy hands up his shirt. I closed my eyes and waited for this all to be over. I feel the weight of the the two men lifted off of me and saw a man in a red helmet fighting them. Oh yes. This must be one of the vigilantes my uncle was telling me about. I didn't know I was crying until I felt my tears freeze up in the cold winter night. After the helmet man finished beating up the two men, he turned to me. I sunk to the snow and hugged my knees, still crying. He came next to me, and very awkwardly asked if I was alright. I nodded my head and tried to stand up, but I fell down. I looked at the man, and he wrapped his arm around me and swing me to some large cave. I opened my eyes and saw two beautiful blue eyes before I passed out."
