Base
Marc began to load his pistols and any other weapon he had. Using ice to bring down his bruises as he did it. The surge of crime in New York rose to a point it made things difficult for him to keep up. A new stitch each night,
"You must deliver vengeance as needed"
The voice in his head became dark and echoed with each word. For Marc it felt like a horrible headache.
"It is painful, but it must be done"
Marc returned to his preparations putting every bullet in one by on into the clip.
"I know" He whispered
Placing the full clip into his pistol, and loading.
New York
"Arrgh!!!"
A man began to crawl out from a car that had crushed his legs. The sound of footsteps made him reach for his gun. Fingers just grazing the barrel, his hand was then broken by a white combat boot. Looking up his eyes widen in fear, Moonknight tilted his head in question.
"Where is it?" He asked twisting his boot
"Argh!! Fuck!!" The man howled
"Where does Black Mask send out his drugs?" He asked once again
"I don't know! They just give it to me! That's it!" He answered
Breathing heavily the man awaited for Moonknight to do something. Seeing the honesty the man in white then began to pull the car over.
"Wait!! No!!"
As it slammed down it killed him, as blood began to pour out. Seeing it go into a stream he stood for a moment.
"They must be shown mercy, or be seen as weak in their eyes"
Marc soon looked at the moon, only half full, no answer or even a whisper about Black Mask operations. He needed to find them, if he need to take him out brick by brick then he shall.
"You will not escape retribution" Marc said still gazing at the moon
"Tonight even more violence has spilled through the city as a gang war seems to be brewing. Jessica?
Yes, as Hell's Kitchen Dogs of Hell have been clashing with former Gothams All Americans police have stationed patrols, but they seem to be wearing themselves thin...
That's all for tonight New York, I wish you good night and stay safe"
Black Mask Warehouse
Gazing at his shipment before him, crates of every drug sold. This is what his new power would be planted on. Digging his into the pile of plastic bags grabbing one. Rotating it in his hand admiring the powder.
"Boss it's done" his assistant spoke
"Good, now are you ready?"
A lumbering figure stomped towards Black Mask. Towering over the two, as his assistant stood scared.
"And now with proper protection my shit is in safe hands" Black Mask chuckled
Hours Later...
Tracking every dealer he could find put a strain on Moonknight's time limit. If he didn't find the source then he would be too late to stop the distribution.
"All units! All units!! Heavy gunfire by the warehouse district!!"
"Found you"
Warehouse
Black Mask's men showered oncoming gangs with gunfire. The amount that came was unheard of. Everyone had seemed to come, fighting for what they had. Members of Black Mask's crew as did those attacking. At this time the others we're placing the packages into a trailer. Closing the doors the truck peeled out the warehouse hitting anything it's way.
Rival gangs entering their vehicles and followed. A chase was present on the highways of New York. Bullets hitting cars that were unfortunate to cross it's path. Crashes occurred more the once filling roads with totaled cars. Moonknight spotted the moving battle, flying over the massive vehicle. Jumping down stabbing the top with his claws trying to stay atop. The high speed winds attempted to pull him off, but were unsuccessful. Slowly rising walking to the truck. A shot flew past causing a stagger.
"Hahaha!! Moonknight! Glad of you to join! You gotta bounty on your head! And I'm lookin to collect!" Tombstone shouted aiming his pistols
Shooting a web into Tombstones eyes, blinding him, Moonknight swung to the side using his claws to stay atop the container. Stifly walking to the truck, a bullet passed by his head again. Looking forward Tombstone was on the move as well. Firing Moonknight barely dodged the gunfire, a few nipping his sides. Reloading Marc charged throwing a strong right, as Tombstone shot one of his own tossing a left, ducking striking him with a two hit combo in the ribs. Tombstone tried to land a backhand only for Moonknight to again ducked landing a strong left straight.
Tombstone struck him in the stomach, soon grabbing him by the throat. Lifting him in the air, Tombstone began to bash him in the head with his free hand. Tossing him to the other side of the moving container. As he was about to get up, a strong kick hit his chest putting him on his back.
Tombstone smiled showing his pointed teeth. As he walked towards the cresent crusader, gunfire hit the side of the truck. Turning he saw Redhood riding on his bike firing at Tombstone who shook off the bullets. Seeing his chance Moonknight stabbed him in the ribs with his claws.
"Argh!!" Tombstone howled in pain
Pushing further in pulling out a Billy-club. Smashing the end against his chin, dazing him. Redhood edged towards the driver side, catching hold pulling himself up.
"Get in and stop-"
"Not so fast"
Looking up Hammerhead bashed his head against Jasons helmet. Luckily it absorbed most of the blow, cracking it open showing a small piece of his face.
"Hahaha!! Lucky you had on that helmet!! Or you would be dead!!" Hammerhead laughed out as Redhood hung off the side
Moonknight landed punch after punch each time stronger, but Tombstone caught his fist pulling him into a knee to the stomach. Dislocating his arm in the process, swinging Moonknight back to where he was. Redhood got onto the container, seeing Tombstone edge towards his ally. Pulling out his pistols firing at the pale skinned man. His hide was tough one that bullets couldn't pierce.
"Nice try!!"
Redhood charged ready to fight, Moonknight used a cresent dart to stab Tombstone in the leg. Distracted by the pain, Jason threw a pistol whipped landing in the jaw. Setting him up for a knee to the face, rising Marc feeling his shoulder ache.
Jason was struck to the chin rocking his head back, causing him to stumble. Another strike caught his jaw, grabbing his head with both hands Tombstone lifted him. Squeezing his head as his helmet began to break. Seeing the young man in distress Marc pushed in his shoulder. Rushing with his claws still wet with blood, stabbing the man in the side of his neck. Feeling the sharp pain, he tossed Redhood at Moonknight the two fell off the moving container. Hitting the pavement hard, even breaking a bone or two.
"Damn it! Fuckers!!" Tombstone shouted as he was covered in his own blood
Both of them saw the truck leave from their sight, Moonknight was the first to get up. Redhood looked at his arm, a fracture inside, a massive head wound.
"Damn, I hurt everywhere" he grunted
Looking to Moonknight whose injuries were severe, blood covered his once all white suite. Trying to get to his feet, he now found out he had a broken foot as well.
"Just great" he groaned through cringed teeth
Marc glanced between Redhood and the disappearing truck. Turning to help the young vigilante up, acting as a crutch.
"Thanks"
"Shut it"
Warehouse
Tombstone sat getting bandaged up, as a large wrapping covered his lower body.
"Be careful" Tombstone growled
"If you want this over with, you'll need to be patient" the doctor answered
Hammerhead heard his phone ring, opening it as soon as he seen the name.
"Yeah, boss what is it?"
Black Masks Building
"Did everything get there?"
"Yes, we had some trouble, but yeah everything's ere"
"Good, now get that egghead movin so that we can start making some money" he ordered hanging up
Taking a sip of his scotch that had been poured before the call.
Base
Jason sat on a worn out medical table as Marc took a look at his head. Pieces of the helmet had been embedded in his skin. Using tweezers to pull each one out and into a small tray.
"You're lucky, anyone who takes a hit like this from Hammerhead are dead" he complimented
"Ya? Why's that? Ow" Jason grunted as another shard was removed
"Hammerheads skull has a metal plate" he answered deadpan
Jason thought he was really lucky, as he winced from the shard removal. Finishing as Marc patched him up with a few stitches, getting an ice pack with his bruises.
"So this is your base? What's it called the Moon Cave?" Jason joked
"It's just a base" he groaned as he took the tray with shards and blood away
Jumping off the table Jason began to wander around. It resembled the opposite of the Batcave. Bruce had trophies of those he had defeated from his past. There were many of Batmans gadgets and automobiles that he had. Here Moonknight didn't have much, but he did have an impressive arsenal. Only a few vehicles were in his base. Finally coming to Moonknight's computer that had pictures of criminals in New York.
"What are you doing?"
Turning he saw Marc standing behind him.
"You don't have much here"
"Why would I? It's just me" he answered going to his computer
Gotham
Bruce had seen the reports of a massive battle on the streets of New York. A few videos were taken seeing the familiar Redhood or Jason as he knew him. Black Mask was gathering muscle soon New York would run red with blood. Bruce was about to leave for the city til he was stopped by Alfred.
"Where are you going master Bruce?" He called out
Bruce turned with a scowl on his face with darkness in his eyes.
"I need to stop this, before it gets worse"
"If you go sir, Moonknight won't allow you"
That reason alone made him stop and think about his actions. Moonknight still unknown, still unpredictable.
"So what should I do?"
"Let him handle it, New York is his home and like you he will surely protect it...to the end"
