AN: So AlithiaSigma and I thought of an idea where Shun was Batman, and it was a silly idea (It still is.) it started off with one liners and stuff, and it ended up becoming our Saturday and Sunday. Oh, and we don't own Yugioh Arc V or Batman.

"That Falcon of yours is as harmless as a fly."

"It can't make a dent in our monsters!"

"We might as well call that Falcon a glorified Chicken."

"We'll see about that won't we? Go! Raidraptor Rise Falcon!"

...

"! It's Strength just rose tremendously!"

"We don't stand a chance against it now!"

"...is it too late to beg for mercy?

The Falcon rushed at the three criminals' monsters,engulfed in flames and destroying them and knocking out the criminals with the overwhelming shockwaves the Falcon produced.

"You shouldn't underestimate the power the Raidraptors hold, you punks." Shun Kurosaki, the vigilante who befriended and holds the power of the Raidraptors, said as he vanished into the night.

...

Shun stepped into the Kurosaki residence, a spacious, but not particularly elaborate house that still managed to be significantly larger than the living quarters of most of Heartland. He took off his cape and cowl and dumped them unceremoniously on the living room couch, where his childhood friend and housemate, Yuto, sat, looking at something intently on his touchscreen phone.

"Yuto, wash my cape for me," said the bird-themed vigilante. When Yuto's parents disappeared, the Kurosaki family took him in. They didn't expect that the Kurosaki parents would end up carded in an alleyway. Though embarrassingly crime-ridden, Heartland was rather forgiving to the orphans, letting them keep their home and livelihood, but did very little to actually help them. Shun, Yuto, and Ruri got along just fine without help, but many children weren't as fortunate.

Yuto didn't even look up from his phone. "No. I'm not your butler, go do your own laundry." He tapped something on his phone, continuing to watch the really engaging… whatever he was watching. "Really, it's all tattered, I don't get why you care about washing it if you don't even bother to patch it up."

"If you're going to be putting your own clothes in the laundry machine, it's not that difficult to just put mine in as well." He turned to leave, but turned his head back to his friend. "And the tears in my cloak commemorate the countless battles I've faced in it for the good of Heartland and its people. That doesn't mean it should smell like Heartland's streets."

Yuto almost audibly rolled his eyes. "Whatever you say. ...Fine, I'll wash them, but you're doing the dishes again. ...Where's Ruri?" Ruri had only joined the Raptors patrol recently, and kept active in both school and charity events. She was a natural leader, and Shun was proud of his sister.

"Thank you. Ruri had some lingering business with a few of her friends at school. It's really impressive how she manages both her academics and our work." Shun himself had left the education system as soon as he graduated high school and participated in monster dueling matches at Heartland's stadium, and had gained quite a following. Yuto was a skilled mechanic and technician, and had designed many of the Raptors' gadgets, not that they needed much more than their monsters. "I'm going to bed. Goodnight."

Yuto waved him off, eyes still glued to his phone. "Night, Shun."

Shun went to his room and collapsed into bed. Vigilantism was tiring. Though one of those muggers he defeated did use Fusion summons, none of them were responsible for carding his parents, nor did they seem to know anything about the recent epidemic of cardings. Tomorrow, he would have to do the dishes and participate in the qualification rounds of the upcoming tournament. As well as fighting Fusion scum, but that was obvious.

There was a ring of the doorbell. Shun groaned and rolled over, having just gotten into bed and not wanting to get out of it. Hopefully, Yuto would open the door. A minute passed, the door remained unanswered, and he decided to intervene. By asking Yuto to open it.

"Ugh..Yuto can you get the door? And drive them off to, I don't want to deal with visitors today."

Yuto grumbled, but Shun heard his footsteps walk to the door. "Kurosaki residence, how may— Commisioner Akaba?"

It was indeed Reiji Akaba, Heartland's young but brilliant police commissioner who had just been elected to the position a mere three months prior. Shun though that this was just going to be brilliant, and wondered what the commissioner was here for.

"Please, Yuto, call me Reiji. Are Shun and Ruri home? I have something to discuss with the three of you, I have an offer you three might be interested in." The composed commissioner said, calmly adjusting his glasses, awaiting to be welcomed in.

A/N: Eyy, this be Lith, AKA AlithiaSigma on this place. I… Actually haven't watched many episodes of Arc V, so I hope this turns out well. Do tell us if you have any questions, comments, concerns, or criticisms on any spelling, grammar, pacing, or characterization! Especially characterization. As much as Vec knows about the characters, a second opinion would be nice! Shun and Reiji are my favourite characters in the show, and you really are unlikely to change my mind on that.

Oops, sorry, long author's note. See you next chapter!
