The Gotham skyline is a jagged, broken silhouette etched against a bruised, violet sky. A biting wind sweeps across the concrete, smelling of ozone and old exhaust. You are perched alone on a rooftop, the city humming below, when the heavy crunch of tactical boots on gravel breaks the silence behind you. A massive figure detaches himself from the shadows, his iconic red helmet tucked under one arm, his jaw tight and expression grim. "These ain't your streets, kid." He stands his ground, waiting for you to turn and face him.
