PsykoReaper: This is the first chapter with good ol' Two-Face as the villain! Enjoy
...ONE MONTH LATER...
In an abandoned factory, the same factory where the Two-Face tragedy occurred, Two-Face, sits on a chair at an office, flipping his coin.
He wore a strange outfit, it looked like a business suit, but one side was white, but the other was black. His tie was like that too, except it was blue and red. He also wore a black glove on his right hand.
Then two men who look exactly alike came into the room, standing close to each other. "Hey boss, what do we do today?" asked one of them.
"Where is a good place to strike?" asked Two-Face.
"Well, I heard that there is a fundraiser, it has Lucius Fox there, and he must be worth something," sneered one of the men.
Two-Face looked at the ground, thinking.
"We will flip on it, heads, we go somewhere else, tails, we kidnap Lucius," said Two-Face. Two-Face flipped his coin, it landed on heads.
"We go somewhere else," answered Two-Face.
"Come on, Dent, we could-" before on the guys could finish, he was shot in the leg, he fell on the floor.
"Don't ever call me Dent, its Two-Face now," he growled.
"Sorry...boss," groaned the man.
"Any other business?" asked Two-Face.
"Yeah, we could rob this bank," said the other guy.
"Alright, tails, we go on with it, heads, we go somewhere else," said Two-Face. He flipped the coin, it landed on tails.
"Alright, we rob the bank," said Two-Face.
"Great, when do we start?" asked one of the men.
"In an hour, get ready, I don't want to wait for you fucks," growled Two-Face.
Two-Face and his men walked out of a car with Tommy guns. They rushed in and shot up the place, everyone ducked in fear.
Two-Face made his way to a female teller, pointing his gun at her. "What's the vault combination!" yelled Two-Face.
"I-I can't tell you that!" shrieked the teller. Two-Face pulled out his coin and flipped it, it landed on tails. He then pulled up his Tommy gun and shot the teller, she fell on the ground, dying.
He then got to the other teller. "Give me some money, bitch, or I might shoot you too," said Two-Face.
"I...alright, I'll lead you to the vault," said the teller. "Alright, boys, make sure none of the people do any funny business," growled Two-Face.
The teller opened the vault, she started to put in the money in a bag, and she looked to see Two-Face looking away.
She then pulled out a can and put it in the bag. "Alright, it's done," said the teller.
"Thanks," said Two-Face.
He then grabbed the bag, he looked in it and pulled out the can, he then put it on the ground. She looked at him in fear, not knowing what he will do.
He held up his coin. "Heads, you don't get shot, tails, you get shot in the head," said Two-Face.
He flipped his coin and it hit heads.
He then put the coin in his pocket and pulled out a metal string.
He then grabbed the teller and tied her hands; she struggled a bit, but was not as strong as Two-Face.
He then grabbed the can and shoved it in her mouth. He then walked out, as he walked out, he heard the can go off and a scream...
After a few hours, Bruce sat at his study, reading the news. He read that the once Harvey Dent, now going by as Two-Face, has robbed another bank.
That struck at Bruce's heart, he once had respect for the man, and he lost his respect.
He understands his plight, but this is not the path he should have gone. Alfred then walked into the study.
"I guess you have heard the news, have you?" asked Alfred.
"How did things get so bad?" asked Bruce.
"What do you expect, Master Wayne, Gotham is the worse place imaginable," said Alfred.
"I know, but I am trying my best to save this city, but every step I take is like I am stepping backwards," said Bruce.
"Don't worry, Master Wayne, everything will come to together for the best," said Alfred.
In a bar, Two-Face sat at a table, with a look of melancholy and a bottle of beer in his hand. The bartender came over to clean up the bottles from the table and floor. "Do you think you had enough?" asked the bartender.
"L-let me flip!" slurred Two-Face. He flipped his coin, it landed on the floor. Two-Face fell on the floor to look at it, it was heads.
"Alright, I'll be leavin' ya, I got...to go," slurred Two-Face as he got up.
He walked outside and stumbled into a car. The one driving was one of his men.
"Alright, ssstep in it, I want to go back home!" slurred Two-Face.
The car then started and drove off. "So, how was that robbery, I saw you kill the teller, what about the other?" asked the man.
"I-I don't give a damn, take me to Gilda'ssss grave," slurred Two-Face.
"But, I thought you wanted to go home?" asked the man.
"I don't make the rules, take me to her grave, that is home to me!" growled Two-Face.
"Yes, sir," said the man.
...THE NEXT DAY...
Dick looked out of his window, looking at his reflection. Alfred came in with a bundle of clothes.
"Master Grayson, are you alright?" asked Alfred.
"I don't think I will ever be alright, Bruce adopted me, but he doesn't stay, all I ever see him is him doing his own things," said Dick.
"He's a busy man, Master Grayson, if you knew what he does for a living, then you would understand," said Alfred, he then started putting his clothes in the drawers.
"I think he adopted me just for a publicity stunt," said Dick. Alfred stopped and sighed, he then turned to Dick.
"Master Grayson, I never told you about Wayne's past, have I?" asked Alfred.
"Why would I want to know?" asked Dick.
"It would shed more light on his side," said Alfred, he the sat on the bed.
"Alright, if you say so, Alfred," said Dick, he then sat on a chair.
"Martha and Thomas Wayne were Bruce Wayne's parents; they were the kindest people anyone would have ever known. One night, they went to see a movie, The Dark Savior, after the movie, they decided to walk home, a silly idea...They were mugged, by an unknown assailant. Thomas I suppose, by Bruce's admission, that he tried to talk to the mugger. He was then shot, and Martha screamed, she was shot. The mugger left Bruce when he started to scream. For a few minutes, his screams were not answered, until the police arrived. They never caught the man responsible, and I doubt they will ever find the monster..."
"I-I never knew," said Dick.
"You see, Master Grayson, he has had as much trouble as you, even his best friend has been...killed," said Alfred.
"But, isn't Harvey Dent still alive?" asked Dick.
"No, Harvey died when Two-Face was born, the man we see in the papers is not Harvey, only the scarred remnants of Harvey Dent," said Alfred.
Two-Face woke up in his bed. His head hurt him; he looked around and saw his clothes on the ground.
He got up and put them on. He walked out to see everyone waiting for him.
"How long was I passed out?" asked Two-Face. "A long while, boss," said one of his men.
"Why do I have mud on my coat!?" growled Two-Face.
"You visited your wife's grave and kinda fell asleep, so we took you back here," said one of his men.
"And it didn't occur to you dumb fucks to wash my coat as I slept?" asked Two-Face.
"Sorry, boss, we didn't know," said one of the men.
As the man talked, Two-Face flipped his coin, it landed on tails. He then shot the answering man on his temple.
"Now, you see what my coin is capable of, it has the power to choose one's fate," said Two-Face.
"Yes, sir," said his men. "I think we should hit another bank, if my coin chooses so," said Two-Face.
He flipped his coin, it landed on tails. "We go ahead with it," said Two-Face.
Bruce walked to his library, he turned the head of a bust of William Shakespeare and a shelf of books moved up and then right, revealing a set of stairs.
He walked down them and the bookshelf went back in it's place.
Dick Grayson then stumbled into the library. "Huh, I thought I saw Bruce go in here," wondered Dick.
Bruce got on his Batsuit, Alfred was on the computer. "I wish you would get someone else to do your computer work, maybe a hacker," said Alfred.
"You are the only person I trust Alfred," said Batman.
"Well, why are you going now?" asked Alfred.
"So I can catch Two-Face in the act, and I have detectors in banks around Gotham, I didn't catch Two-Face last time because I didn't get there in time," said Batman.
"Very well, Master Wayne, if you say so," said Alfred. Batman then got on his Batcycle and drove off to the city.
Two-Face and five of his men entered in another bank, they shot their guns in the air, and everyone ducked to the ground.
"Get the money, I'll be on the roof," said Two-Face.
"Why?" asked one of the men.
"Just so I can, don't ever question me!" growled Two-Face.
"Yes, sir," said the man. Two-Face climbed up some stairs to the roof.
Two of the men then grabbed two tellers, a man and a woman, and forced them to the vault. "Open it up!" growled one of the men.
They did as they were told, unlocking the vault. As they were opening the vault, the men looked to see a batarang hit a guy in the face, toppling him and the other guy on the floor. They got up, but were both punched in the face by Batman, both fell by the force of Batman's punch.
The tellers looked to see Batman, he then rushed out of the vault room.
He saw two thugs with Tommy guns, they fired at him.
Batman jumped and slammed one guy on the floor. He then swatted the gun out of the other's hand, he then threw him at a pillar.
He then walked up the stairs, to look for Harvey Dent. He then saw one of his men guarding the door to the roof.
"Hold on there, freak, the boss doesn't want to be disturbed, so I am guarding this here door and you can do anything about it, BAT-FUCK!!!" yelled the man, he then aimed his Tommy gun at Batman, he then pulled out a device, he pulled the trigger and it released a cord and grabbed the gun from the man.
Batman then walked up the stairs, the man then pulled out a knife. He tried to stab Batman, but he threw the man on the stairs and fell down them.
"Aaargh, I think you broke something," groaned the man after he fell from the first set of stairs.
"I don't give a damn," growled Batman.
Batman opened the door and walked into the roof, he saw Two-Face, he was looking at the city.
"Harvey Dent, why are you doing this?" asked Batman.
"Because...Harvey is dead, only Two-Face remains, Batman," he said.
"What about Gilda, does she not matter anymore?" asked Batman.
"She's dead, dead because of this city, this city that allows crazed animals to live and stay in cells, and I am one of those crazed animals, and what do you know of Gilda?" asked Two-Face.
"I know she would never want you to do this, Harvey," said Batman.
Two-Face was silent. "Heads, I kill myself, tails, I stay and continue to wreck the city," said Two-Face.
"I don't want either, Harvey, just give yourself up without a fight!" said Batman, with Bruce almost slipping out.
Two-Face flipped his coin, it landed on...tails.
"Sorry, I stay and harm this city like it harmed me, Batman, and there is nothing you can do about it, funny, this is what our good country has offer," growled Two-Face, he then sarcastically said, "God Bless America!"
He then turned around and pulled out a gun. He then held up his coin. "Heads, you live, tails, you die," said Two-Face.
He flipped the coin, it landed on heads.
"You are a lucky man, Batman," growled Two-Face. He then walked past Batman, but Batman grabbed his arm.
"I won't let you walk out of here, Dent, you are a criminal, a psychopath, a monster, I will not let you out of here!" growled Batman, with Bruce almost non-existent.
Two-Face then threw his arm at Batman and knocked him on the ground. He flipped his coin again, to rejudge Batman's fate, for attacking the judge, it landed on tails.
He then shot his gun at Batman, but Batman dodged the bullets. Batman uppercut Two-Face, sending Two-Face tumbling to the ledge.
He then was about to fall. "DENT!!!" yelled Bruce.
He then ran to Two-Face and grabbed his arm as he fell. "Why are you saving me? I am a monster..." asked Two-Face.
"I won't let you die, Harvey, I can't give up on you!" said Bruce.
He pulled up Two-Face and got him to his feet. Then, Two-Face punched Batman across the face, sending him off the building, but he grabbed the ledge.
Two-Face walked over to Batman and stepped on his fingers. "You saved me, that means you get another flip, heads, you have help, tails, you stay," said Two-Face, he then flipped the coin, tails.
Two-Face the walked away from the ledge and got out of the roof. He ran down the stairs and ran to his car, he then drove away. Batman then got up and fell on his back. "I...I lost...him," said Bruce.
He then lay there, until he heard the sirens, he then jumped off the ledge and used his cape to lessen the fall. He then got to his Batcycle and drove off.
Alfred looked at a map of the city on the computer and saw a red mark moving, through the city.
"What is all this?"
The voice spooked him and looked to see Dick. "Master Grayson? What are you doing here!?" asked Alfred in a surprised tone.
"Is...is Bruce Wayne Batman?" asked Dick.
"You must leave Master Grayson, Master Wayne must not see you here!" said Alfred as he moved Dick out of the cave.
Before he closed the door, he said, "Please, don't let Master Wayne find out," said Alfred. He then closed the door on Dick's face. Dick stood over there, he then walked away.
Later that night, Two-Face sat at his table in the bar, drunk as hell. He looked at a reflection of himself on some spilt beer on the table, from his own beer. He looked at it with disgust and hatred.
He then grabbed a napkin and washed it away, but the reflection was still there. He then saw someone appearing behind him, he couldn't tell who it was. The man then put his hand on his shoulder.
"Harvey, Harvey, Harvey, how the mighty have fallen, heheheh, you swore to fight crime, now you are like me! Disfigured and crazy, but unlike you, I got my girl still with me and not six feet under...but I have a question, Harvey Dent, or is it Two-Face, do you want to avenge her death? Don't you want to kill the man who killed her? Don't you want to make him suffer? Make him wish he was never born?...Don't you want to kill me? Name the time and date, and we, along with Black Mask, will have a battle royale that no one has EVER seen before...heheheheheh, it got me the giggles just thinking about it! Anyway, I'll leave you my card, Two-Face, with my cell number, and you can choose my grave..."
The Joker then left the bar with a smile. Two-Face looked at the card; it was a Joker playing card with a phone number on it.
He looked at it for a long time; he then snatched the card and stumbled out of the bar and into the car. "Sorry about earlier today, boss, but don't worry, we will get Batman," said the driver.
"I don't give a damn about Batman, my prime concern isss the Joker, I'll tell you about it when I am sssober," slurred Two-Face.
The car then started. "Where to?" asked the driver. "Gilda's grave..." said Two-Face.
PsykoReaper: I kinda think that someone like Two-Face that goes into an accident like that would be an alcoholic. Flame me if you want, but I think Two-Face should be a drunk, final word, whatever...
