Prologue
The remnants of what once was the innocent eight-year old boy, Bruce Wayne, had changed as soon as his parents were gunned down in front of his eyes at the once peaceful alleyway, now dubbed Crime Alley, having had its' true origins and name erased far from anyone's memory. In this very same instance, the world began to rot. The two most honest, richest, and influential citizens of Gotham City just happened to be this boy's parents, Thomas and Martha Wayne.
Without them, Gotham City, one of the most influential and richest cities in the world, became overcome with despair, hatred, and evil, over time. The untouchable were touched, the only hope was destroyed, and the only two who led the movement of modern-day philanthropy and kept the world from corruption and poverty were savagely murdered, by one of the few untouched by their heroics. What was contained by Gotham City began to spread around the world, after this tragic event. The death of two began a deadly chain reaction. ...And from there, the world became in need of heroes. Some began to rise to the challenge, as seeds began to be placed to start revolution, yet others became corrupt. The police force and military were not enough, and their ruination thus began...
In response to this need, however, the death sparked something else, something that could meet the worlds' demands, and thusly, Bruce Wayne was plunged into a pit of black vengeance… and a solution began to develop itself within the center of the problem. He was forced to see the harshness of life, long before any soul should and soon set out to discover the truth of it all, both with, and without, his faithful servant, Alfred.
Meanwhile Gotham's police force was not what it once was. The mystery of the Wayne killings was never uncovered. They were left unavenged and left the police of the city to feel responsible. No matter how many years of search and dedication they brought through for it, the case was, unofficially, brought to a close, a cold case that was unlikely to become warm, or attempt to be warm, again. The police soon became corrupt and only a handful truly honest. A promising rookie, out-of shape officer in training, and poor Hispanic girl were the three who became destined to change that.
And all that was left of the night was an evil CHILLwhich threatened the world…
