action news special report
Billionaire Bruce Wayne has returned to Gotham city! For those who don't know, Wayne left Gotham when he turned 18, and has been of anyone's radar for three years. Here's Peter McElroy with foreign affairs.
As you may know, recently, several spacecrafts have arrived around the globe. The beings inside, a race of beings known as gems have asked one thing of our governments: a place to call home. Some countries have already granted them this, but many others, America included, are extremely hesitant. Back to you Becky!
Thanks Peter. In other news, a strange bat creature has been spotted in Gotham. Several criminals have been found around the city babbling about it. These criminals are usually extremely battered, some even having several broken bones.
A man ran down the street as if his life depended on it. He had tried to mug a family, but was being chased by... something. He dashed into an alley behind a theater and looked around. Safe he thought. This secure feeling was premature however, as he was grabbed and pulled into the darkness. "who are you?!" he asked as he feared what would happen to him.
The thing holding him stepped out of the darkness, revealing itself to just be a man in an advanced military armor, a black cape, and a black mask with pointy ears. "I'm Batman" he growled right before throwing him into the wall, knocking him unconscious.
He raised a graple-gun, and zipped up to a jet-like vehicle hovering in the air. He got inside the vehicle and a video call greeted him. "Sir, I believe I should inform you that the news has been talking about you. Also, you should head home. You have a conference meeting tomorrow, and you should sleep" said a British man on the other side of the chat.
"thanks Alfred. I'm on my way home" he replied.
About a half an hour later, Batman drove through a waterfall, and entered a cave. The cave was littered with pieces of computers and other technological gadgets. "hello, sir. Glad to see you're back in one piece" his butler Alfred said.
"I'm sensing a lack of faith"
"well, I did have my doubts"
"I hope that these doubts have been eradicated" Batman said, taking parts of his suit off.
"well, I hope that you get plenty of sleep, as you'll need it. After all, Bruce Wayne is a busy man"
"and he must stay that way" a costume-less Batman, now Bruce Wayne said, determined.
