"Arkham who?" Rocket asked as he got up
"Arkham knight..."
"So...is that who you really are?" Rocket asked as he saw that no one was around
"Yes...I..I mean no!" he said as he clutched his head and staggered back "I..Don't know what I am!...I used to be Ro_-no! that's not who I was" he continued
'Robin? is that what he wanted to say?' Rocket thought,then he asked it "R..Robin? is that you, Jason?"
"I_-"
"Freeze! NOVA core here! PUT YOUR HANDS UP!"
The Knight withdrew a pistol and to Rocket's surprise, he shot the NOVA core officer straight on the chest killing him. Rocket's eyes widened and he thought that this figure standing before him couldn't be Jason, no way! Jason was kind and loving and he'd never take a life
"Gotta go!" said the knight as he threw down a smoke bomb
"NO! WAIT!" Rocket shouted as he reached to grab him but he was gone "Who are you?" Rocket whispered to himself... as he fell to his knees
A few hours later on the Milano, Rocket decided to tell everyone about his little encounter
"Guys there's something I need to tell ya"
"What?" Gamora asked
"It's about that dead NOVA corpsman"
"Continue" Drax said now turning serious "That man had a family...I will kill whoever's responsible"
"He was killed by a guy called the Arkham Knight"
That name struck Peter home, he knew who that was and he didn't have the heart to tell Rocket
"But it was by mistake...the Knight was startled and mistook him for one of those assassin guys, but he did murder the Grand-master's body double" Rocket continued
Quill's suspicion was only confirmed by what Rocket had said
"Quill?" Gamora said
"Hm?! Yeah?" Quill said as he was startled
"Is everything ok?"
"Yeah" Quill said as he moved to his room quietly to finish off a comic where the Knight's secret I.D was revealed, Rocket got the feeling that Quill knew what was going on and followed him.
He saw Quill take a comic off the shelf and read it out loud
"Batman found Jim Gordon tied up to a chair, he quickly went towards him and said "I'll free you" but then the Arkham knight showed up with his gun pointed at the Batman "I don't think so!" He shouted. Batman calmly turned around and saw his enemy "Who are you?" Batman asked"
Rocket placed his ear on the door to hear what he was going to say
"The Arkham knight was surprised and said to his nemesis slowly "You still haven't figured it out yet?" he retorted as he took his mask off "Have you Bruce?" continued the Knight. Then Batman's eyes widened at who he was facing "NO! It can't be...You're dead!" "SHUT UP! I'M HEAR NOW!" Screamed the Knight "No..." Moaned Batman as he fell to his knees "How are you still alive...Jason" " Quill dropped the comic book and sat down on his bed.
Rocket went back to his room and locked the door, he sat down behind it with his back leaning against the door, he then started to cry "What happened to my best friend? What happened to him?! He's never like that! Oh Jason! What happened to you!"
