Wayne Manor
Bruce Wayne watched the news broadcast in disbelief. Alfred standing beside him looking aghast.
" This is an unprecedented incident. Waylon Jones also known as Killer Croc was strung up in Gotham City Square sometime last night. The back off his skull blown open and bat-like wings spray painted onto the building behind the body. The pavement was also vandalized as a message was painted across it in front of the body reading 'We the people reject the monsters and their games. No more shall we suffer one to live'. This is clearly quite ominous although this reporter wonders if this is connected to the confirmed deaths of Penguin and Two-face. If so we have to wonder who is pulling the strings here? What is their endgame? And most importantly, where will they strike next? "
Bruce immediately begins heading for the cave only to be stopped by Alfred.
" Sir, I understand your haste however your schedule is full today and you cannot afford to miss these meetings and appearances. You have put off far to much already, and people are starting to ask questions. "
Bruce sighed deeply and put a hand on his face. But he stopped, and turned. This city would be the death of him and both men knew it. Bane had been returned to Arkham when he heard what happened with Two-face and went to the scene to investigate. Between both tasks his night had no time for rest.
Across the City in a familiar warehouse
A smaller group then the last time was gathered. Tobias smiled at the group, before glancing at a well dressed older man. Addressing the better dressed man he said.
" Are you ready for your interview Nicolas? I understand if you don't want to go through with this. Their is no judgement here. "
The older man smiled softly. Then he replied.
" Tobi, I understand the risks. But still I'm proud to be the one trusted with this task. I've spent my life in this city and seen it's fall into depravity. To be able to deliver the message of its salvation is nothing shy of a dream. And if my daughter was still hear today I'm sure she would be proud of me, no of us and our mission. "
His voice thick with emotion as his eyes glittered. His face shifted into a watery smile. Tobias sighed and smiled.
" All right, well we are behind you 100%. Go out there and bring our message to the people at large. "
The set of the Gotham Tonight show
" Lights! Cameras! Action! "
The narrator's voice rings out.
" Welcome to Gotham Tonight! With your host Lydia Engel! "
A tall thin woman smiles for the camera from her large desk before starting to speak.
" Hello Gotham City! Tonight we have a special guest here to reveal the truth behind the deaths of several of Gotham's rogues. Here he is Nicolas Gallavan! "
The same older gent from the warehouse steps into the frame with a smile. Waving to the camera as he moved to the large chair near the host's desk.
" Hi Nicolas, so you have something to share with our audience? "
" Yes and thank you for the opportunity to be here and share this with you all. Now what would you say if I told you that all three deaths originated from the same source? "
The show host smiles slightly and leans forward. At this reaction Nicolas continues.
" I am here to proudly say that this is the beginning of the end of the darkness plaguing this city. That those hurt by the madmen in this city are striking back! I myself am a member of this group. I say this to all you watching. Are you tired of being afraid? Are you angry at the state of our home? Are you ready to put an end to this deranged game the bat plays with his psychos? If so we have a place for you, a place for everyone willing to rise against this endless cycle of destruction. A place for you exists with us, with The Red Revolution! "
The host panics as the feed is cut and the entire city goes quiet, digesting what was said.
