Alfred:Master Bruce…
Bruce Wayne:Ugh, my head...
Alfred:It seems you have had quite the nightmare…
Bruce Wayne:So it seems…
Alfred:Well Master Bruce, I have you're breakfast ready if you so desire.
Bruce Wayne:Thank you, Alfred. My nightmare, it seemed unreal…
Alfred:Sometimes our nightmares are our own twist of reality…
Bruce Wayne:In my darkest of moments, I still see them…
Alfred:They loved you dearly you know, and often spoke of the great things you would come to accomplish.
Bruce Wayne:I know… do you think they would be proud?
Alfred:Indefinitely. I've watched you grow from a young boy into sometime more… a symbol of great hope to a city who needs it most. You have faced many evils in your crusade as the Dark Knight.
Bruce Wayne:I simply could not stand idly by while death and destruction plagues the city…
Bruce then gets out of his bed and walks the great halls of Wayne manor. The hallways shined brightly from the clear windows of the estate. He enters the library and looks at the old bust of his father.
Bruce Wayne:Bat Computer, initialize.
Bat Computer:Power Online… Authentication required… *Beep boop*
After pressing a hidden button, the bust's eyes open and scan the Dark Knight's retina. The bookcase is unlatched and a dark corridor awaits him.
Bat Computer:Access Granted.
The Dark Knight approaches his battle station and looks at his screens.
Bruce Wayne:Bat Computer, open radio frequencies to all Gotham Police signals.
Bat Computer:Action Completed.
Suddenly, the bat computer's screen flickers randomly and the lights in the Bat Cave turn off.
Bruce Wayne:Bat Computer, initialize!
Bat Computer:Access Denied!
Bruce Wayne:Alfred! What happened?!
Aflred:It seems as if there was a blackout.
Bruce Wayne:No. Something's not right. The Bat Computer denied me access to commands.
Alfred:Then it seems that a more sinister plot is at hand.
The bat computer then flickers again and turns a greenish color and a large question mark appears.
Bruce Wayne:It can't be… it's Enigma!
From the computer a voice is spoken with it breaking up with each word.
Enigma:It is I! The Riddler, I have finally broken into the dark knight's computer!
Batman:Enigma! How did you get into this server?
Enigma:Oh dear dark knight, you're a detective! You figure it out!
Batman:Get off this server, or I will find you.
Enigma:Before you go prancing into the night in search of me, I come bearing important message for you.
Batman:Speak!
Enigma:You and I are alike in many ways my dear friend. Our good friend Ra's Al Ghul has risen again from the pits of the underworld.
Batman:Impossible. I saw his death along with the end of the Lazarus Pit.
Enigma:So it would seem. He comes for you now, detective, and the reckoning shall be great.
Batman:Why tell me this?
Enigma:Because my good friend, I still have use of you before your inherent death.
Batman:I'm done talking. Bat Computer, kill connection.
Bat Computer:Access Granted.
Alfred:Do you believe him?
Batman:Strangely, I believe him. The Lazarus Pit was destroyed by Clayface at Arkham City. However, it could be possible. I should contact Talia.
Alfred:Talia? That will be an interesting visit.
Batman:I must find out if he is alive.
Alfred:I'll get the Bat Wing ready…
Batman:It's time to pay him a visit…
