The two men dragged Rorschach's limp body out of the bar and into an alley. One of them brandished a knife menacingly and held it up between Rorschach's thighs. While the other man watched the door the other man attempted to start his grisly work. Rorschach leapt lightly to his feet and quickly turned the knife into the surprised man's throat. He left it there and stalked toward the other man's cowering form.
"Should not have attempted to mutilate me. Very bad."
"Damn man, i thought your ass was dead! I was just watchin' the door man!"
"Perhaps could work something out... Murder in alley three days ago. Small man, head severed. What do you know?"
"Oh shit man! I don't know! That fucker came in the bar one, maybe two times! Didn't say nothin'! Just sat himself there and looked ad some poor guy for a few minutes! Don't kill me man, c'mon!"
"Not worth my time."
"Oh thank you so damn much I can-"
WHOOMP! Rorschach's foot stamped down on his head with a sickening crack. He felt his neck.
"Hurm... Should find lead on murdered man..."
Urgent News Bulletin: Another Man Found in Alley, Missing Head
This man, identified by the NYPD as a certain Robert Carter, was found between two apartment building late last night with injuries similar to Thursday's grisly murder of an unidentified male. Further details to come soon.
"Oh God, what the hell is going on in this city?" Daniel Drieberg wondered to himself as he pulled himself up into the Owl-ship's driving compartment.
(Authors Note: This story is about the man who was murdered, not the murderer. I realized it could be confusing since only a few characters have names yet. And Daniel is not in the next chapter, he comes in later.)
