"Hello, and welcome to the SSCN, the only news network trusted by the Secret Society." The calm tone was the Voice of Jack Ryder, not this universe version though. Like hundreds of other reverse heroes, he came into this universe unexpected, and unchallenged. "As you know its been 1 year since I came here, and just look with what we done with the place. Already the world is better then ever, no more pesky governments getting away, I mean who needs a bill of rights when you have nice folks like Ultraman watching out for you"
The talk show host gestured behind him, as images flashed on the screen. The first showing men in bondage working bitterly"Now here we have a picture of Metropolis, as you can see the citizens are really getting behind the forced labor program, as Ultraman put it, they dont have a choice." Jack Ryder laughed happily, a mocking tone which penetrated the ears of every citizen on the planet. The image switched to a criminal beeting a cop in Gotham. "Here we see good old fashion brutality, gotta tell you it reminds me of home." The man said wiping away invisible tears.
"However, we have a problem" His voice got serious, a new image flashed on the screen, this one showing a simple Bat symbol. " You see, throughout Gotham, some so called heroes are fighting the Secret Society's new regime. Now that just isn't right." The picture was replaced with an obscenely large number " Now the big bosses are offering a reward for any Bats captured, and the price is doubled for the Big bad Bat himself."
"Its a shame, he just doesn't realize, his time is up"
...
"Alfred, I could very well not make it back from this, If I die, tell Dick to take up the mantle of the Bat." Bruce Wayne walked through one of his satellite caves, a calm look on his face, but his eyes danced with anger, rage, betrayal, and even, fear? "Tell the others Jason , Tim, Barbara, Cassandra, Steph, and Damien, that I leave Gotham to them, and that I'm proud of each of them." The Manor above them was burned to the ground, destroyed in an initial attack against the worlds rulers, unfortunately they were after Bruce Wayne, and Batman. "I'm not coming back even if I succeed, I have to find the others."
"Sir, where are you going?" The English man asked, his voice slightly shaken, but he remained strong.
"To metropolis." He sat at the bat computer, pressing a few keys quickly." I'm seeing the one man left who can help me, the one man who may be able to save the world." He said pulling his cowl off, and staring at the map in front of him. "1 hour ago I intercepted a transmission from Lex Luthor, I thought he died in the attack, but leave him to survive.
"Do you have a plan sir?" His master was many things, but Alfred doubted he had the ability to predict Luthors survival.
"No, were going to have to wing it." He grunted out, putting his cowl back on, the Batman calmly walked to his armory.
"Sir what about Gotham, what about the peop-"
"This is bigger then Gotham, bigger then me, the worlds at stake. I refuse to just sit back, and watch as the world comes to an end." He stated calmly, he walked to the Batplane, his last Batplane, and hoped he would live to see his family again.
"At least take Master Richard With you, he could help." The Butler argued.
"He could, but hes safer here." Bruce retorted calmly.
"So are you." The butler stated numbly.
"Good Point." Pressing a button he closed the roof of the Batplane, and began his flight to Metropolis.
