Chpt.5
"Come on King Author! Time to go patrolling." I said opening his door peering into the room.
"Be right there Lady Nags a lot." Apollo shot back. I closed his door and went into the Bat cave. I had everything on except my glasses and wig. When Apollo came down his curly wig and bandana wasn't on either.
"Ready slow poke?" I joked. He flung on his Bandana and wig, and I did the same.
"Lets get going," he said. I hopped onto the motorcycle and Apollo went onto his.
"Beat you out." I laughed.
"You're on." he replied. We sped out of the cave and it was obviously clear that I beat him out, but he wouldn't admit it. Nothing seemed to be going on. It seemed like metropolis for a brief second, but then I saw the Bat signal light up the sky.
"Dad should be answering that soon." I said to Apollo. He nodded and we kept riding. Suddenly a banks alarm called out and Apollo and I were on the scene. A single man came running out of the bank.
A one-man bank robbery, wow this man's either very good at his job, or is just plain stupid. I ran and tackled him. Before I was able to get handcuffs on him, he was able to worm away from my hold and pull out a huge gun, and he started a rapid fire. I was able to dodge and reflect some bullets.
"A little help here?" I turned to Apollo, but he didn't here me. At least it seemed that way. A man with a dangling pocket watch swung it in Apollo's face.
"You are a puppet that will bend to my will," the man said.
"I am a puppet that will bend to your will," repeated Apollo.
"Now attack your partner!" exclaimed the man. Apollo then came running at me, and tackled me to the ground.
"Jhonny what are you doing! Snap out of it!" I exclaimed but Apollo didn't say anything. His eyes were blank. I struggled out of his hold and he ran to punch me. I dodged his punches and when I jumped over him, and he was in the mist of turning around, I punched him in the face knocking him unconscious. I ran toward the man with the watch and before he was able to swing it in my face I smashed it.
"No! My watch! My watch!" he exclaimed.
"You don't need a watch where you're going." I said putting handcuffs on him. I found the robber who had the gun staring at me with jaw dropped.
"Are you going to make this difficult, or are you going to cooperate." I said. He dropped his gun and knew he was defeated. I handcuffed him and tied both men to a street pole. "Don't worry, you two won't be waiting here long. The cops should be here soon to pick you up." I said going back to the unconscious Apollo. I picked him up and dragged him into the shadows of an ally way.
"Jhonny. Jhonny." I said trying to wake him up. "Oh well since I already punched you it can't possibly get worse if I do this." I smiled to myself, as I slapped Apollo hard on the face. I suddenly felt a pair of eyes on me and I glanced up to the roof of the building we were on top of. I thought I saw a figure dart back into the shadows of the roof. I wasn't sure if there was really someone there or it was just my imagination, but before I was able to find out, Apollo slowly came back into consciousness.
"Ughh… I feel like a truck slammed me in the face." he sighed.
"Yah my fist tends to do that." I smirked.
