//-------------------------------------------------------// /\RKHAM KNIGHT -by Jantremendous- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// chapter 2 going solo //-------------------------------------------------------// chapter 2 going solo hapter 2: JD (short for johnny-dash couple nick name) 6 MONTHS LATER Batman and I and robin were patrolling Gotham for any signs of crime, but I asked my dad "Batman, I want to go solo, become my own superhero". Batman told me "Ha, you're crazy kid; you couldn't survive a knight on your own…" "But there is a test to prove to me you're ready to become a solo superhero, though I never thought I'd actually use it" "Please dad give me this test I want to prove I'm ready". I told him begging he told me "alright fine" "it's called 'the gauntlet', rules are; you have to avoid me on the streets of Gotham for one night from-sunset to sunrise WITHOUT any outside help". I willingly accepted "OK, thank you". But batman told me "tomorrow night, you have to be here at sunset and have to get back here at sunrise, SUCCESSFULLY!" I was very excited and anxious, so I jumped home (because I'm wonder woman's son, and I can super jump), Rainbow was wide-awake when I reached our condo, and she was sitting there in front of the TV, watching just plain static with all the lights off. I felt an eerie horror-movie vibe when I entered our loving and caring condo; I walked up to the couch and saw her in her pajamas, consisting of orange and blue long sweat pants made for sleep, accompanied by some slippers and a short-sleeve shirt with a design on it that was a thunder cloud and a lightning bolt with a rainbow colored border."rainbow, are you OK?" she responded "(sigh) john I'm fine…" she said with a sad tone of voice when she spoke, "What's wrong? Why you are sad, aren't you usually happy". She told me "just tired sweetie" "I got fired…" "WHAT!?" I yelled in shock" "why'd you get fired?" She told me"I baked bad cupcakes, I wasn't paying attention when a couple of customers ordered, I was late getting back to the bakery when I took an extra 5 minutes on my lunch break without realizing, I made a mistake with a customer when I was counting his change and gave him more than he owed without realizing, got reported to human resources and you know the rest... (Sniffle)" "Dash, look at me, you don't have to become depressed because you got fired, don't you remember I'm a member of the Wayne family , I'm rich , I'm rich + financial problems = FINANCIAL PROBLEMS ARE SOLVED" She smiled and brightened up "Your right john, that's the best thing you've ever said to make my day". "The SECOND best thing I've said to brighten your day, Batman told me I can go solo if I can pass 'the gauntlet ' if I'm successful I can go SOLO". She had the biggest smile I'd seen of her all day"YA, this is gonna be great" she hugged me softly, almost cuddling, and she kissed me "(smooch) love you john good night" "'night dashy" (just to note, she kissed me on the mouth (john narrating)). I took my suit off and took a shower and went to sleep, I kissed her on the cheek, before going to sleep, and fell asleep. I stayed in bed throughout the day. "(yawn) good morning Gotham, oh johns still asleep, must be resting for the test, (smooch) love you john". That night I had set my alarm clock to 4:00 PM to get to the chapel at 4:29 PM, when the sunsets, so I slept for 8 hours until my alarm clock went off at 4:00, when the thing rung, the minute the alarm clock when off, I boosted straight into the air like a bullet and put on my suit and kissed rainbow dash and made it to the chapel right when the sun set. Batman told me "it's sunset, from now to 7:13 AM tomorrow, you will be on your own, if you survive from now till then and take down all criminal activity and capture a super villain, you will no longer need assistance from us 2, but if you're in a jam with a criminal when your solo, come to us for help" "Ok, wish me luck…". I scoured all of Gotham till I found a crime in progress, I was a mugging "Hand over the necklace" "But this was my mother's" I jumped down there "Step away from this family NOW" "Or what? Your gonna be a hero? Get lost kid come find me when batman has time for me" "OW!" I twisted the criminals arm with my super-strength "Batman doesn't have time for the likes of you, he has more important matters to attend to, not petty thefts like you" "I give I give". I kicked the criminal to the ground "Good, I'm calling the police to pick you up ""is everyone ok?" I asked the family. "We're good, no harm done" "That's a good thing". I took care of a lot of crime. "Aw crap, it's almost 7:00 AM and I haven't taken in a super criminal". Right when I said that the joker came out of now where running out of a bank, I saw that he used joker gas to take down the guards. "HEY JOKER!" batman overheard me on my com-link "Joker? Night wing you can't take him on, he's one of Gotham's most dangerous villains, you'd die" "The name's ARKHAM KNIGHT". "OH, what fun, batsy has a brat, or HAD a brat once I'm through with him". I punched him right in the jaw "Shut up, we get it you make jokes". He pointed a pistol right at my face "Well you're no fun, not as fun as your old man, (yawn) my god your boring". I beat him up right there, punch and kicking him. "(Maniac joker laugh) you think you can beat me boy?" "I already have" "huh" the GCPD showed up and tossed him in the police van. I made it back to the chapel "I brought in joker, its 7:13 AM, made it back to the chapel on time; I'm ready to go solo" Batman sighed "(sigh) night wing you are successful , you are now ready to go solo" "YES, THANK YOU" "under one condition, get rid of the suit and choose a new name, piece of advice its optional though" dad smiled at me and I made it home //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 3 the /\rkham knight is born //-------------------------------------------------------// Chapter 3 the /\rkham knight is born CHAPTER 3: THE ARKHAM KNIGHT IS BORN I ran home, slammed the condo door open, but unlocked it first, I ran in "PINKIE, IM SOLO NOW" I yelled with a big grin, she was already cooking breakfast, but wearing the same clothes as two days, meaning she's stressed "Great, that's GREAT". She Smiled happily and hugged me and kissed me,"Great, I was making a celebratory breakfast cause I knew you were gonna pass". I asked her curiously "how'd you know?" She responded "god came to me in a dream and told me you were gonna pass". For a moment I paused and saw a mysterious figure on top of another building, looked like it was observing us, it seemed coincidental that rainbow dash and I broke up a year ago and this mysterious figure just shows up to watch us, at the moment though I don't care. "Pinkie, could we sit down and eat". She nodded and we sat down to eat. We finished eating, I asked pinkie "pinkie, do you still have rarity's phone number?" She said "yeah, why do you ask?", "because I'm gonna need a tailor for a new suit". I threw away the night wing suit I had, and burned it, "the name night wing is dead to me". Pinkie called up rarity and from what I heard while they were talking their still on good terms. "That'd be great, alright thanks, see you at 8:00 rarity thanks bye" 8 HOURS LATER We drove up to her shop/house I guess you would call it, and everyone came out to greet us. They were all happy to see us "wow, you guys missed us; all 4 of you girls are still on good terms with us, except rainbow dash?" "Well obviously, why wouldn't we, you 2 are our best friends and you hate rainbow dash also". Twilight told us, I asked "is this some kind of sick game you're playing?" All responded "nope". "Then let's get started on what we came for" we all walked in and first thing I did was to stand for rarity to measure me, while the other 3 and pinkie pie, sat and watched. Rarity asked me a couple of questions like how tall I was, responded "5-foot 10", she took measure of me and used a weighting scale to see my weight "Hmm, how odd, 5-10 and 21 years of age you are of mesomorphic build with a 6-pack , yet weighing 105 pounds?". She said that in a confused tone of voice, I told her "Don't worry rarity I'll take it from here". "Ok, heh, do you even know how to create armor?", but I'd already gotten to work on my suit, "Ok then it's seems you can handle everything from here on out", "Do you have any titanium around here, some black and red Kevlar fabric around here? Thanks". 4 hours later "Applejack what time is it?" dash asked, "(yawn) 12:00 AM". "FINISHED", I yelled with enthusiasm, everyone rushed in to see the suit, "Lemme seuh (dash was drooling because she almost fell asleep)". I had titanium plated boots that kept me running at full speed, gauntlets that looked a little bit like vambraces, black Kevlar fabric mixed in with red Kevlar fabric to look like black and red cameo pattern, with reinforced shoulder pads, with 4 pouches around my hips and a belt buckle with a gun holster, with a canister holder on my left leg to hold canisters with a type of chemical, grenades etc., with a collar around my neck with Kevlar fabric, I had a batman-like cowl except my whole face was hidden, you couldn't see my mouth my eyes nothing, glowing blue eyes and tiny bat ears and I had an A on the front looking like this , _/\_ . The name night wing is dead to me, I am now know as the _/\_RKHAM KNIGHT NOT THE END CHAPTERS 4, 5 AND THE REST ARE COMING SOON WE HOPE YOU ENJOYED THESE 3 CHAPTERS STAY TUNED FOR THE REST
