The girl was gone; she vanished in the nearby alleyway as I jumped to the ground below when I went to the driver of the car that she stopped with her bare hands. The driver was holding his neck with his hands probably from the whiplash he received when the girl slammed onto the hood and he also looked like he was in shock to see what happened.
"Are you alright sir?" I asked the man turned he looked completely shocked to not only see what happened to his car but to see a vigilante near him.
"Yea...h...my neck hurts...I thought I hit that girl. What did I hit?" he exclaimed to me, I nodded moving to the hood of the car tracing my fingers against the imprint dents in the hood.
"I honestly don't know...just get home safely and take care of your neck." I replied watching him look down for a minute allowing me to slip away into the shadows. I headed back to the henchmen that laid still unconscious on the nearby roof where I saw there was one who was semiconscious. That girl was very powerful with her strength and she was very skilled in acrobatics. I noticed I had a strand of hair sticking to my emblem, I pulled out the small plastic vial from my utility belt and placed the strand inside it. I knew I could run this strand in order to analyze for any alternations to this girl's DNA and of course to find out her identity. I began to move towards the one semi conscious henchmen who looked like he was holding his face and then my mind flashbacked to the fight earlier. I remembered while I was fighting two of Desmond's henchmen that the girl was fighting the other, she fought this one. What did she do to him? I hoped to get any information that he knew about Roland Desmond or what he was planning. He looked up at me as I grabbed him by his collar of his jacket lifting him up the ground with my strength then I slammed him up against the wall hard. Now I got a better view of the guy; I saw his face was soaked in blood, the blood was coming out of his nose and mouth soaking his shirt. My eyes noticed that the bones that were in his jaw were hanging by now only muscle tendons and skin. "What does Desmond want with that girl?" watching him try to struggle to speak with all of the blood in his mouth and the movements made it impossible to understand that I could make out a few words.
"I'm not....intimidated....by you...you are....not......the Bat..." He slurred if he could make a facial expression it would probably be a snickering smile.
"You're right, I'm not the Bat." I started pulling him a bit closer to me until we were almost touching noses, I squinted my eyes at him with my gaze now firm in his eyes and I could see the fear build up inside him. "I'm a lot worse...now talk before I make that jaw a lot worse."
"Ok...ay...all I know is Desmond is very angry that she escaped...she is the key...that's all...I know...I swear...now let me go..." he begged slurring with his words when I noticed that dawn was approaching behind the inferno of Desmond Corporations and I had to disappear before I attract unwanted attention.
"You tell Desmond, I'm coming for him. Enjoy your broken jaw." I hissed slamming his head into the wall knocking him unconscious, I released him from my grip watching him slide down to the floor. Turning away from him I ran from the roof towards my bike that I had parked and hidden in the shadows when I was scanning the area earlier. I pulled on my helmet, I started the bike letting the engine roar and drove off into the dawn lit sky. "Oracle? Are you there?"
"Dick? Thank God I thought we lost contact there, is everything okay?" Barbara replied in my helmet com, I bit my lip a bit because my heart was still very wounded from our break up but that feeling had to be pushed to the side until I figure out about this girl and Desmond.
"I need you to send me all the information that Bruce has on Roland Desmond aka Blockbuster. Any research on his serum and any suspicious activity from him recently." I exclaimed turning each wide corner, my foot scraped against the concrete to push me back into motion. After I was realigned I found my next turn come up fast, with a swerve I forced my bike to turn onto a dusty patch of the road where not many people live in.
"Are you sure you want to tango with one of Blüdhaven's notorious crime lords?" Barbara asked with uncertainty I knew why she was worried about me getting in too deep but I can't pull myself out of it now. Not with this girl who was somehow caught in the middle of it, she needed my help whether she wanted it or not especially since I saw what she could do.
"Just do it Barbara, please. A young girl's life may be in danger. Send it to my mainframe when you have it all." I answered not wanting to hear her lecture, I ended the conversation by cutting the com and I pulled the bike to the back entrance of my apartment which was out of sight to prying eyes. It looked like a normal garage on the outside but inside it was a mock appearance of the Bat Cave which I called the Wing cave. Bruce kept this house as a safe house for us if somehow the manor was compromised and we needed another base. So I decided to use this apartment since I decided to go solo and it was fully equipped to handle my needs. I pulled off the helmet placing it onto the handlebars heading over to the main computer. Reaching into my utility belt I pulled out the vial with that girl's hair placing it onto the scanner, I typed a few keys to initiate the scan and saw the computer begin to identify. Moving towards the sink area I pulled off my mask that was on my face placing it onto the desk, I took a towel soaking it into the water and began to wipe the black makeup from my eyes. The black makeup helped to conceal our identities so the bad guys wouldn't attempt to figure out our identities easily. The makeup was now cleaned from my eyes as I threw the use to be white now black cloth into the basket nearby. The computer made a loud dinging noise as I moved back to the computer seeing that the scan was complete. Plopping down into the chair in front of me I clicked the results to see only a small piece of information which I suspected since it wasn't a full DNA sample. My hands folded against my chest and I used one hand to touch my chin allowing my finger to trace across my lips."So Miss Scarlett Lynx, what does the biggest crime lord of Blüdhaven want with you?"
~~I know that this is the Bat Cave from the Dark Knight Movie Series but in order for you to know what it looks like, this is what Dick's cave would look like in this series~~
