AUTHOR'S NOTE: Sorry it took so long for the next chapter. Hopefully, the wait is worth it. I'll try to update again soon!
Chapter 10
Gordan tries to blow his frustration out with a sigh as he stares the report that Dr. Roberts sent him. While they were able to collect a well preserved sample from the boy, no one matched the DNA that was extracted out of the sample.
Taking his glasses off with his left hand, Gordan rubs his eyes as he gets himself ready to make a call to Bruce Wayne. Feeling a breeze blow across his face, Gordan places his glasses back on and look up at Batman.
"No Supercriminals tonight, Batman," says the tired police commissioner. "Joker, Two-Face, Riddler, and all the others are locked up tight in Arkham tonight."
"I'm not here for that, Gordan," growls the Caped Crusader. "I heard about Wayne's kid."
"The Grayson boy?" replies Gordan, flicking a hand toward the report on his desk. "No leads. I just got the DNA report and, while the hospital was able to get a perfect sample, it doesn't match any known criminals."
"What did Wayne have to say about what happened?" asks Batman, though he already knew what he told the police earlier that day when he reported what Dick told him.
"Wayne said his ward spoke with him a little about what happened, but that the boy didn't see the face and Wayne thinks this attack was meant to hurt himself."
"How so?" demands Batman.
"The boy told Wayne that, during the attack, the assailant kept saying how Wayne thought he was so safe and, after this, Wayne will think differently," answers Gordan.
"Have you spoke to Wayne about any know enemies the man might have?" asks Batman.
"He couldn't think of any, but you don't get to stay in power for as long as the Waynes have and not made a few enemies simply on the basis that they have money," replies Gordan, shaking his head. "I dread telling the man that we don't even know who attacked the boy."
Not hearing a response, Gordan looks up from the desk, only to find himself alone.
