Chapter 168 - [AT] Get McFly’d…

[After Transition]

I continue to stare at Two Face for a second as he kneels on the ground cradling his injured hand that still has the Batarang embedded into it but he suddenly breaks eye contact and looks to the side and when I follow his eyeline I can see that he's looking towards his other silver handgun that he dropped earlier before his eyes darted back over to me and we stared into each other's eyes again (well I am because he is just staring into my black lenses and since my head didn't even turn when he looked at the gun the he probably doesn't realise that I've noticed it, man were these black lenses a good decision) before he suddenly darts toward the gun and grabs towards it but not letting him do what he wants I run towards him and again use my grapple which launches through the air as I run at him and grapples onto the front of his shirt just as he picks up his gun and before he can even level it at me I retract the grapple pulling him towards me and I myself jump up into the air pulling him with my grapple but by this point he's already airborne and flying towards me at a heigh speed and I myself have just jumped into the air and I stretch out my arm to the side and when we finally collide it's in a clothesline that impacts his jaw/neck and ends up with him slipping through the air and tumbling towards the ground where he lands with a clatter utterly dead to the world (not actually dead just unconscious, that's just a phrase of speech) while I just gently land on the ground again, damn that was also badass and I was feeling unsure about this career decision earlier but right now I'm seeing the benefits and I'm enjoying it a whole frickin lot because of the thrill I just got screwing this deranged man and his crew over and I can feel my mouth curling up into a wicked grin unbidden and I can't stop it but I don't worry about it either since my mask covers my chin as well so they can't see my wicked grin which I'm glad for since the image of a grinning/smiling Bat themed person doesn't exactly fit the theme and I don't really wanna cramp on the big bosses brand plus just the idea of a grinning Batman sends shivers down my spine for some reason and fills me with dread but that must be because it's an unimaginable sight since I've never properly seen a grin on that chin when he's wearing a cowl since he smiles a whole lot when he's Bruce Wayne.

Looking down at the ground behind me I can see Two Face laid out on the ground with a pretty bruised neck and probably an equally bruised larynx so I feel like the guy won't be doing any talking any time soon but as I look closer at the man I spot something on the ground next to him which glints and catches my eye and so I move to go and inspect it which immediately results in about a dozen different red spots focusing on my body being directed by the snipers behind them but even so I don't even stop in my stride as as soon as the laser sights aim at me they are immediately called off with a shout from Commissioner James Gordon who tells them to hold their fire and so I continue to walk to the thing that caught my sight on the ground next to the defeated form of Harvey Dent and I bend down to pick it up and bring it close to mud eye to examine it, standing back up I can here James Gordon rushing in my direction along with a few other footsteps following him but he tells them to hang back a little and let him deal with it since he has experience when it comes to Bat people but I hardly pay it any kind as I'm more focused on examining the silver coin in my hand which must've slipped from Two Face's pocket as he flew through the air as I can clearly see that it is a two headed coin but one side has a pristine silver glow while the other is burnt to a crisp making the head on this side bȧrėly legible and as I look at the object in my hands I get the feeling that it is a cursed object not in a magical or spiritual way but I feel that it is ominous and while it may only have sway over one man it still unsettled me to see the object which can literally be seen as the duality of man along with belonging to the literal personification of the duality of man as if it's some kind of Dr Jekyll and Hyde shit. "I didn't know that there was another one of you crazy goddamn Bat-people running around, it wouldn't hurt to get a warning before another one of you show up just so I can keep my guys from shooting at you on sight. Unless this is you Batman and you decided to have a costume change, hell I still remember the first time I saw you when you started out and you had that thin bat-symbol on your ċhėst and those purple gloves as well."

Gordon comes up behind me and starts to talk to me as I continue to face away from him and look at the half burnt silver two headed coin in my hand and pondering if I should just take it with me or destroy it but after a moment I come to the realisation that I have no right to torch probably the only thing this man in the ground still cares about plus I could be inviting even more trouble by doing so as it might make the man more unhinged or even make him vow to take revenge and come after me effectively giving me a nemesis and man who will constantly be trying to kill me and I don't want one of those no matter how small the chance of hat happening is and so I kneel on the ground once more and pull open Two Face's suit before tucking the ominous coin back into one of his inside pockets and patting it for good luck before getting back to my feet and spinning to look towards Gordon who was hammering on behind me about costumes, he was saying something about Batman having a thin bat symbol on his ċhėst and purple gloves as well which if I'm remembering correctly seems to be very similar to earlier iterations of the Batman so I guess in this universe he did wear that sorta stuff before wising up and donning proper equipment plus I'm kinda wondering if he also wore black brɨėfs on the outside of his costume but that's a question for later since a very tired police officer is looking at me with questions in his eyes. "I'm not Batman, I'm Orphan. I'm new in town and I just thought I'd go and see the welcoming committee, most of the thugs beside have been knocked out and zip tied but there are probably a few who don't have suitable restraints on them plus the five or so guys who are taking a nap down in the vault so be ready for them. Apart from that the hostages should all be out of the building by now and they're probably around the back of the bank with a few of your other men, they're all there and I'd recommend you getting Two Face restrained and in the back of a police vehicle as soon as possible before he wakes up."

"This ain't my first rodeo kid, I know what I'm doin here probably more than you do. So Orphan huh, I guess your story is pretty self explanatory but I think the names a bit on the nose. So are you one of Batman new sidekicks or something? Better hope you are because your running around with the visage of a bat on your head and if you didn't hear that kinda taken, I heard you can get sued for that type of stuff for using their likeness or something." Gordon reaches into the inside pocket of his brown duster/overcoat (what's the difference, really) and pulls out a pack of cigarettes from which he pulls a single cigarette and stuffs it into his mouth before he puts the cigarette pack back in its place and pulls out a light from one of his other pockets to light his cigarette before he waving on the men behind him which promptly signalled them to storm in threw the front of the bank so they could begin cleaning it and taking the men inside into custody while another came up to Two Face behind me where they grabbed him and cuffed his arms behind his back and then began dragging him towards their police vehicles to suitably detain the man and make sure he can't escape, but even as this happens the man stays calmly smoking his cigarettes while staring towards me with me staring right back at him and I've gotten pretty pissed since he called me a sidekick when I am in actual intact just a temporary worker whose only staying till all my boxes are ticked but it still pisses me off that I was called a sidekick by this man and he's just calmly staring at me and so I decide to take a little petty revenge by a pulling a trick on him that he's probably used to but not in this specific way and so I move my gaze from him towards behind him and I point my hand out pointing towards something in the background and with Gordon being curious what I was pointing at he turns around to stare into that direction along with all the other cops outside who saw me pointing and also looks around to see what I'm pointing at.

"God fuċkɨnġ damn it… Every time, goddamn bat-people…" I hear Gordon sigh out as I watch him from the shadows of the roof of the bank since he turned back around after not seeing what I was pointing at and noticed the fact that I was already gone along with dozen other cops who also got tricked by me and looked only to discover that I was gone when they turned back around which is a classic trick that Batman always does on Gordon but I bet he's never done it at the same time to a couple of police squads as well and he's never done it by making them look way by pointing behind them which is My revenge in Gordon for calling me a fuċkɨnġ sidekick which I'm not, he got what he deserved when I fuċkɨnġ Marty McFly'd him.. classic trick from the back to the future series, wonder what that movie is like in this universe…
