I always dreamed my life as a comic so it turned it into one. It is placed in Bludhaven with my character coming in a little later. I've also added a new aspiring heroin to spice things up a little and add some humor.
Bludhaven, night, Nightwing takes his usual patrol. While up on a remote rooftop he gets the feeling he is being followed. After a quick check of his surroundings he finds nothing and goes back on patrol, almost instantly there is an explosion at a nearby bank known for its mob affiliation. Nightwing responds immediately to find a group of armed thugs holding four night guards hostage in front of a now blown open safe. The thug in front has an electric cattle prod and is guarding the hostages while the other four have over-sized, cartoonish vacuum-like contraptions and are sucking cash from the vault with them.
Thug 1: The boss is right, this IS easier!
Thug 2: Twice the haul away, twice the pay out!
Thug 3: You really think he'll cough up the extra dough?
Head thug: O' course he will! Now shut up and do your job!
Thug 4: Awww we're almost done, keep…What, what is that!?
Thug 2: It's Nightwing!
Nightwing: Took you long enough.
Head thug: SHOOT 'IM!
Nightwing: Oh crap.
Nightwing flips out of the way and continues to cartwheel away from bullets. Shots ring out, all of the sudden a thug's gun is struck with a ninja star and jams.
Thug 3: (staring at star in his gun) What was that?! (starts to panic)
Thug 1: (seriously panicked) Must be the Bat!
Head thug: Then shoot him too! (abandons hostages and raises gun)
Head thug is zapped from behind with his own cattle prod and drops to the floor. Holding the prod (smiling) is a tall, thin but muscular blonde girl dawning a mask. She is wearing mid forearm, fingerless gloves, a corset with shoulder straps (goes about two inches above her belly button) and low raise booty shorts, all in midnight black. She also has a complete utility belt (in brown), some of the visible weaponry includes nun chucks (with chains dangling down), a row of smoke pellets, ninja stars, a police-style ratio and handcuffs hanging from her right hip. On her right leg is a black guarder with a large sheathed knife in it and she wears over-knee black boots. The girl drops a smoke pellet and starts bashing the other thugs.
Thug 2: That aint on danm Bat!
Thug 1: I didn't sign up for…*mmrrpp* (thug is dropped by girl).
Thug 3: I'm gettin outta here! *uufff* (thug receives a boot to the temple by the girl)
Nightwing engages thug 2 as the smoke is fading
Thug 4: Please! Please, don't hurt me! (with hands up and girl standing in front of him)
Nightwing finishes thug with a fist to the head and turns to see the girl interrogating the thug.
Girl: Drop the gun and the vacuum. (cattle prod in hand)
Thug: Oo…ok. (nervously drops gun and detaches vacuum) I'm doin what you want see. (puts hands back up)
Girl side swing thug and he drops to the ground, the girl walks up to the, removes his mask and grabs his hair to make him look at her.
Girl: Who are you working for?
Thug: Scc…screw you!
Girl: Wanna try that again? (zaps thug in the leg with prod)
Thug: *AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!* Ok, ok I'll talk!
Girl: WHO are you working for?!
Thug: The Penguin alright! It's the Penguin!
Nightwing: The Penguin? What does he want in Bludhaven?
Thug: Said he was startin up a new operation. I don't know what though I swear!
Girl: Where were you taking the cash?
Thug: Van down stairs, boss said ta sound the alarm if anything happened. I swear it wasn't me, Frankie musta! Please just don't hurt me!
Girl: Relax, I'm done punchin you. (handcuffs thug) But stay still and quiet *ZZZTTTTTT* (zaps cattle prod), or its lights out, got it?
Thug: Gg…ggg…got it, got it.
Girl: And as for you, (walks towards Nightwing, pointing prod at him for a moment) you almost got your ass shot back there. (walks in tight circles around Nightwing) *Mmmm* *Mmm* Even better in person.
Nightwing: (grabs girl by the wrist and pulls her into his face) Who exactly are you?
Girl: Exactly? Still not sure, how about you? But one thing's for sure, I'm the one who just saved your ass.
Nightwing: I could have handled it.
Girl: Sssuuuurrrreeee.
Guard: *Mmm* *Mma *Mmrrr* (still tied up on the floor)
Girl: (brakes away from Nightwing's grip) Oh God! (kneels to the ground near guards and pulls out knife) Don't worry, I'm just gonna cut the tape. (Cuts tape and removes tape from mouth on all four)
Guard 2: They ambushed us, we…we didn't have a chance.
Nightwing: Did you get a good look at the van?
Guard 2: Yeah, big white movin van thing.
Guard 1: Oh God! Charles! Is he…
Girl: Unconscious, but he'll be fine. (Stands up and walks forward) Sty here and keep him safe until the cops come. (inspects cattle prod) I think I'll keep this, little memento of my first big hero bust.
Nightwing: I'll ask you again, who are you?
Girl: (walking backwards) What, I need name? Can't just kick ass in peace? Oh look an open window. *BBBBBYYYYYYEEEEEEE!* (as she falls backwards out the window)
Nightwing instinctively runs to the windows edge, suddenly a line shoots to the opposite building. The girl grapples to the rooftop, turns around and gives a sassy two finger solute. She then runs off out of sight.
Guard 4: That girl is either crazy, or some kinda crazy.
Nightwing: That's what scares me.
Early dawn, Dick Grayson's apartment. Dick returns home and takes off his Nightwing costume and heads for the fridge.
Dick: (thinking to self) Note to self, check for guns before running into fire. Who was that girl, and how did she sneak up there? One thing's for sure, she does have skill. Aaaaannnnddd, there's no milk, (closes fridge and heads to cabinet) well, black coffee's still coffee. (opens cabinet) And no coffee, looks like it's a coffee and donuts day, eh, maybe a nap first.
