Hey Everyone This is my first FanFic so I hope you all enjoy, since I'm just starting out I would love it if you all would take the time to review my story just to tell me what you think or even to leave some constructive comments to help with my writing or ideas for the rest of the story.

The alleyways in the narrows were no safe place to be walking through at night, drug dealers, rapists and murders hide in every dark shadow, but tonight something worse hid the shadows, waiting for an unexpecting victim to walk by before he pounced. The sound of high heels rang loudly in the empty alleyway as Amy Napier walked home from her friend's house late that night, still dressed in the office attire consisting of her plain white shirt and her black skirt. Amy walked straight past him not even noticing the glimmer of the switchblade that had been removed from his shoe. He couldn't believe his luck, this one was even prettier than the last one and tonight he was going to have all the fun he wanted. He stalked the blonde haired woman like a lion would tail its prey before he made his move. The screams echoed through the streets but it was the narrows, even if someone had heard her cries for help it wouldn't have been surprising if they had pretended like it was nothing and walked home to their loving families and warm cosy homes, but not Amy, tonight someone had very special plans for her.

Bruce Wayne awoke screaming with a bead of sweat running down his forehead as he had done for many nights now. Alfred was by the bed setting a tray containing a breakfast of scrambled eggs, bacon and toast by the bed before walking to the curtains and opening them the intensity of the sudden change in light caused Bruce to cringe as he pulled a pillow over his head.

'Sleep well Master Bruce?'

'No Alfred I had that dream again, I keep seeing a little more each night, seeing my mother and father killed over and over in my head isn't my idea of a good night's sleep Alfred'

'I would imagine not Master Bruce'

'but there's more now Alfred I can see who it was that shot them, he was always hidden in the darkness but I see him now, it's me Alfred, it's, it's... Batman.

'Not to worry Master Bruce, they're only dreams after all' Alfred replied with a smirk growing on his face.

'I know Alfred but the dreams are just so intense'

'Well sir While Batman was busy catching up on some well needed sleep it would appear that our mystery murder has made the headlines again sir.'

'The newspapers say another woman, a Miss Napier I believe was found mutilated in the streets of Gotham last night, the paper would give any more information I'm afraid.'

'That's alright old friend I'm sure Batman can find out some information on this mystery killer.'

So there it is Chapter 1 hope you all liked it, please don't forget to review and don't be afraid to throw a few ideas of what you would like to see in the story thanks ill try get chapter 2 up ASAP.
