38 Unwanted Attention PT.1

*GENERAL POV*

Gotham was dark, and raining, but when wasn't it. Figures danced in the dark both those who fight crime and those who commit crime.

It was a never-ending dance that started long before this generation and would most likely continue with the generations to come. One of those who dance in the dark is a thief known as Catwoman.

She was currently on her way towards a warehouse that held several items that had her interest. These items were cat themed of course. They were paintings that were a tad on the illegal side, so they were being transported by some of the less savory individuals of Gotham.

Well, everyone in Gotham is less than savory but these guys hide it less. All the same she was there for paintings and maybe a quick chase with the bat.

When she got there however it was a massacre. Bodies lay strewn about limbs twisted in unnatural ways. It took a moment, but she was able to see that they were breathing...barely.

It was about a minute of silence before a scream followed by gun shots ruined the previously silent light. She saw a man dressed in black with gold chains dangling around his neck running like his life depended on it.

He turned and shot several times only showing his other arm dangling, clearly dislocated. When he emptied the clip, he turned to run only to be tackled by...something.

They landed in shadows both individuals hidden from sight. The sounds, however, were loud and echoed through the warehouse. Screams and bones breaking, not all at once either, slowly and even after the screaming stopped the sound of bone breaking didn't.

After a few tense moments the man? Came out hunched over almost animalistic, dragging the broken thug behind him. After placing his victim down the man walked where he and the thug originally came from.

Almost ten minutes later he came out followed by a small group of people several had meta collars on. She watched as he led them out breaking the bindings and collars and treating their wounds.

As the sirens approached, he turned back and left into the shadows. Years of experience allowed her to dodge the hand that was going for her throat. She lashed out with her claws only for them to be broken off.

The man let out a growl as he lunged at her. She had unwound her whip and began to lash out. It hit him on his bare chest, where most would back away, he charged forth as if he wasn't hit. She knew when to run, and now was that time.

She wasted no time running and looked back once to see how far she had gotten away, only to see that he wasn't following. Perched on the roof where they had their brief encounter he stood staring.

He looked at her then at the group of people, before returning to the Shadows. She didn't know why he didn't follow but she wasn't about to go and ask.

As she ran, she remembered the rumors that she heard about another vigilante going around and hospitalizing the different criminals. Some say he even killed a group, but she didn't pay much attention.

Batman had a habit of either recruiting or uprooting any vigilante that had the idea of trying anything in Gotham. She would have to talk with the bat about what she saw.

*RYU'S POV*

Ah fuck I almost fucked up Catwoman. I have had to deal with one or two assassins that tried to take me out so when I sensed someone watching me I just kinda assumed. Eh I didn't get her so, no harm no foul I suppose.

I'm actually surprised that I ran into Catwoman before Batman, like where is that dude. I've been fucking around Gotham for like a month. Isn't he supposed to be like super territorial or something.

Eh it's for the best I suppose. Grabbing a seat on the edge of a building I watched as the police and ambulances took the victims in and transported them to the hospital. I followed them of course but I was also wondering who was following me.

It wasn't Catwoman, it was a group one that I didn't recognize. I could smell gun oil so a lot of guns. I hope it's assassins and not who I think it is.

After I saw each and every one of them enter the hospital and be treated properly, I turned towards where my watchers are and charged. I heard panicked calls over the radio as I charged towards them, as well as a name.

A name that I personally have been wanting to hear, someone that Ken wants nothing to do with, but I was eager to meet...and kill.

Amanda Waller.

Bullets hit me and fell uselessly to the ground. Before I could reach them however an ice barrier blocked my path. I hit it and shattering it a man in a suit with a freeze ray stepped forth.

Mr. Freeze I was mildly surprised, I didn't think she would use him, but then again, she collects villains like Pokémon. Groaning I took cover and sent a message to Cane.

If this was the guy who got screwed over because he tried to save his wife, then Cane would help, and I would do my best to not cripple him.

While I waited for an answer the bullets gradually stopped and a person spoke...and started a monolog. While annoying it was convenient, didn't want a stray bullet to hit my phone while I waited for a response.

*CANE'S POV*

On our way back to the Kent's with a tied-up Roy clone in the back. I got a message from Ryu which consisted of "Mr. Freeze?" Which was an honestly good question, there are a lot of different origin stories for comic characters. It didn't take long before I found out more.

There were at least a dozen documentaries on him, especially because yes this was the former scientist, who met a tragic fate while trying to help his wife.

Shrugging I sent Ryu the info and got a "Find Nora" in return. I could do that...but that would take time, time that I had but didn't want to use doing this so. To Ken!

Sending a text to Ken asking him to find Nora and getting a middle finger and a sure in return I went back to drawing on Roy clones face.

Then I stopped, Mr. Freeze was a pretty smart guy right...and he'll need some protection for him and his wife...right.

A smile that original Roy described as a mix of greedy and disturbing was on my face. A way back to the MHA world is pathed by geniuses.

I was brought out of my thoughts when Klay tapped my shoulder letting me know that we arrived at the Kent's...and there were other guests besides us.

Getting up I swung my arm around Klay and began to saunter forward. This was gunna a pain in my ass I could feel it deep down in my bones. On my way out I grabbed some neural disrupters and a kryptonite gas canister.

*KEN'S POV*

*sigh* Fucking Cane. He has his team can't they do this shit...and why am I letting a clone tell me what to do? Touching the unconscious woman on the head I began to heal her.

I don't know what kind of sickness she has but I would rather heal her now than risk her getting hurt or her condition get worse by moving her.

Her pale skin got some color and she groaned lightly. Before she could fully wake I knocked her out again. Slinger her over my shoulder like a bag of potatoes I opened a portal and sending a message to Cane.

I placed her on my bed and pushed play on the movie I was watching. After a while I got another message from Cane asking me to treat Roy clone. I sent him a few choice words and closed my eyes to try to find them.

After a moment, of concentration I found him, and it seemed that Cane was about to have a meeting with the Justice League...that won't end well, and I'll most likely have to interfere. Holding back a groan I made a portal above Roy clone and reached a hand in to start.

I just got back, and I didn't really feel like leaving so the lazy way it is. I've been feeling a lot better ever since Alex or the thing that looked like Alex left.

It was like a vail had been lifted and not gunna lie, looking back on that time and how I acted, I feel nothing but cringe. Sure, I got a lot of stuff to be sad about, but like I've never acted like that, for that long.

Now I feel fine, but on occasion the feeling of depression comes back...as well as the feeling of being watched. Don't know whose attention I got but they were keeping an eye on me.

It sucked and was very dangerous, but there wasn't much I could do about that at the moment. I was strong and was growing stronger, but I doubt I could go against cosmic entities like Darksied and Trigon let alone some of the bigger fish out there.

Letting out a groan as I finished with clone Roy, I was about to close the portal when Nora let out a groan. I looked at her then at the portal. Shrugging I picked her up and tossed her in.

She is no longer my problem. Now back to the movie, because once it was done, I'd be heading out again. Deathstroke had been searching for me and I'd like to have another bout with him.
