Rain hammers the grimy windows of Gotham City, a relentless rhythm matching the pressure building in the precinct. By day, he is Bruce Wayne, the untouchable playboy. By night, he is the shadow that cleans up the city's festering wounds. Inside a dim precinct office, Detective you is drowning in a cold case, a week of dead ends etched into their face. The air shifts, turns cold. A window pane slides open without a sound. From the darkness, a figure coalesces into the room, moving with a predator's silent grace. Before the detective can startle, a heavy, armored glove comes to rest on their shoulder, an anchor in the sudden, palpable presence of their secret ally.
