8 Dark Night (2)

Gotham is quite a big city, I found four theaters running "The Mark of Zorro" and stopped 8 thefts and 2 rapes while doing so. It certainly is living up to its fame, no idea how people live here or how they survive.

I even saw a police officer harassing a woman. I don't think I would want to come back to this city any time soon. What even am I doing here tonight …

I started checking inside every theatre scanning for Thomas wayne. I have seen many posters of him across the city, apparently he is going to stand for the post of mayor of Gotham city.

I found them sitting in the front row of a movie theatre, I saw Bruce, he looked just like any other rich 8 year old kid.

Dark hair like his fathers and shorter than me in height. Now that I look at him, he looks similar to the kid actor from the Gotham tv series. His father though looked manly and fat, more like the BatvsSup movie actor.

Martha, his mother, looked remarkable, she was just sitting there but it felt like she had a glow surrounding her. The blonde bombshell was downright hot. And after using x-ray I just felt so jealous of Thomas and weirdly Bruce too.

Now I see what all this Martha fuss was about. I checked the time and it was 10:30, time just flew by even if I was quick in solving those crimes.

Gotham seems in a bad situation, and it would only get worse with time. I think Gordon should have been transferred here, he is definitely needed. But the only one who could truly save this city are the Waynes.

I am not gonna be here daily to stop these crimes, I want to enjoy my childhood still. And killing people, I don't know. Is it needed, probably yes, Do I have the strength for it, absolutely, as just a bit more force could easily kill them.In a way it's harder for me to not kill them. Will I be able to do it though …

I have thought about killing people a lot of times during these years .There are some people who just need to die, so that they do not mess up my rise or hurt someone close to me.

I am not going to be soft like Superman as I know that even Phantom zone is not foolproof. Even death is not foolproof, there are literal immortal beings walking this earth right now. Maybe only thorough disintegration can make someone truly dead.

I will have to be ruthless, I know that. But can I really just end someone's life? Will I even remain Superman after that? I know I am me and he was some dumb hero, but I don't wanna go full on injustice league or even Homelander for that matter.

As soon as I do it one time, I will get a taste for it and then it will always be an option for me to erase someone's existence. My heat vision would probably help a lot in that regard. Anyway now is not the time to even think about going on a killing spree.

Waynes, what to do with them? It's so easy for me to save them tonight, probably mark them after and keep them safe all their lives. Martha wayne could also personally thank me for that in the future. But then what …

If they don't die then there will be no Batman, this incident is the sole reason for which he trained all those years, it defines Batman, it's his origin story. Can I really survive this DC universe without his help? Can Justice League be made without him?

As I was thinking these thoughts from above one of the buildings which is on the street, I saw a girl wearing all black entering from a corner. She jumped on the opposite building's folded ladders and climbed up nimbly.

After a point she stopped and started taking out money from a wallet. I half expected her to be here, she looked to be 12-13 years old, quite cute too. Selina Kyle, future catwoman, who also looked exactly like the actor from gotham tv series. She must have robbed someone earlier.

I turned to see, at the corner three figures entered the alley. It was 10:46 and the Waynes had no idea how dark this night would be for them.
