Karma: 2 Remembering.... « Thread Started on Aug 24, 2005, 5:08pm » Who am I? A lone figure sits,above Gotham,trying to think. He doesnt know who he is.He doesnt remember one part of his life before this. He remembers.... Nothing. NOTHING. "NOTHING!!!!!"He screams,angry. He doesnt know. None of it is familiar. Come on,focus....There has to be SOMETHING I can remember. My Job....My House....MY NAME....Anything! I cant remember any of it!!!! WHY?! Somehow,being on the rooftops of Gotham makes him feel safe.It feels....right,for him to be up here. He found out this place...whatever it was...was called "Gotham" when he read a sign that said "WELCOME TO GOTHAM CITY". But...Nothing rung a bell. He jumped down,and spread his.....whatever it was,which made him glide down to the streets below. And then....He walked. He didnt know where he was going,or where he was in the first place....but....He walked. Crossing through back alleyways throughout the city,He kept trying to remember. My name. What is my name? Does it start with an A?D?C?F?L?M?Z?.....B? B! It starts with a B. But...What is it? Bruno?Bryce?Bartholomew? He knew he was close.Especially with the first two. Just then,He heard a scream,coming from a nearby alleyway. Almost on some sort of....intstinct....He ran,to see where it came from. He looked around the corner,to see a woman being mugged. Something about that made him feel....anger. It wasnt the man....It was....something about the thing he was holding.It clicked.... And then,all of the sudden,He leaped from the shadows,and tackled the man,pinning him to the ground. "OH MY GOD!!!"The man screamed,looking at what was ontop of him. "Who....Am...I?"He said,confused. He didnt know why he was asking this man.....But....He needed answers. The man cowered,thinking it was some sort of threat. "Th.....The.....The Batman!!!"The man finally yelled,in fear. Batman. That name...it....sounds....familiar. It is mine? Is my name.....Batman?! Batman shook his head,in confusion,and got off of the man. Batman looked over at the mans weapon,which was on the ground.He slowly picked it up. Something about holding it...and picking it up...didnt seem right.It seemed wrong,in alot of unexplainable ways. He threw the weapon down,and looked at the man,who was running for his life. "...Batman?"He asked himself. He remembered it.That name. Batman.HE was Batman. He looked up at the sky,and leaped. Yes. It all makes sense now. Batman made it to the rooftops,and watched the city. "I'm Batman."He said,to himself. However....that was all he knew.Beyond that,He had no idea about anything. He even had these weird feeling that he had a SECOND name.... However,part of him didnt care. Part of him enjoyed having only one name. And it was Batman.

She could sense something was wrong.....she got into the car and drove off.. Pushing a button on her watch started to beep and she followed it. Getting out of the car she put in a ear piece and turned it on "Batman....can you hear me?" Her voice sounded fearful, afraid he was hurt...

"..zzzz..B...zzzzz....a.....zzzz......r....zzzz.....e......." He was confused. What the hell? Batman looked down,and the message became clearer....a little. "..zzz..Batm....zzz...ca..zzz..hea...zzz..m...zzz..." He didnt know where the sound was coming from. He reached up,and felt one of his pointed ears. Something...It was inside of it. Was there some sort of...machine,in there? He shook his head,again. "Weird."He said to himself,looking out at Gotham. Something about the sounds.... Aside from the buzzing,and the static.....there was something else. A...voice. A voice that he somewhat recognised. ..Somewhat,being the key word. He leaped from the rooftops,and landed in another alleyway,with his cape spread. Another scream. On another sort of....instinct....He reached into the gold thing on his waist...and pulled out some sort of...weapon. It looked similar to the other one he had picked up,but it was different. He shot it out.It shot a cord. Batman was becoming more and more confused by the second. He dropped the weapon,and leaped for the rooftops again. Somehow...being up there gave him some sort of...clarity. And he didnt know why. There was something else on his mind.Something about the voice triggered something....like....a mental image,of someone... Who? Who was this person? ...Should I know her? Part of me feels like I DO know her....but...I dont even know who she is. Is it someone I should hate? Or maybe....love? WHO?! Batman grasped the sides of his head.This was confusing.... Just then,He remembered....someone was in trouble. He leaped down,and faced the person,who was being held at knife point by a mugger. The thug turned,and widened his eyes. "...Sweet Jesus!"The man screamed,dropping the knife,and running away. Batman looked at himself. Why was everyone afraid of him? He then realised something..... He LIKED being feared,for some reason. Batman leaped,again,and landed on another rooftop. This was all so confusing....

Looking up she noticed him, she walked in and panted "Batman...." She walked over Her face now seen in the moon light "Im glad your alright, you didn't answer me" Standing beside him she smiled looking into his eyes "Is everything ok?"

Batman looked at the woman infront of him blankly. ..First of all,how the hell did she know where He was? Secondly,WHO was she? Thirdly... Batman took a long look at her face.He was about to say something,when He stopped. Her eyes.....something about her eyes....they were familiar,in a sense. His eyes widened. The girl.The WOMAN. SHE was the woman. The woman that kept "haunting" his memories was standing right infront of him. He didn't know her name,He didn't know how she knew him.....But.....She was definatley apart of his life,in some capacity. He reached up,and touched her face,curiously.It was like it was the first time He had seen it....though,He knew that wasn't the case. So many emotions... He couldn't take it.He had,literally,a million questions to ask this woman....But....Something about seeing her made his emotional state too much to handle. So,instead,He turned around,and dove off the building. Shooting a grapnel line,He swung above the rooftops,leaving the woman of his dreams.....literally....behind him. She seemed....worried about him.He could sense worry in her face and her voice when She talked to him.He also noticed a ring on her finger..... An Engagment ring? A....Wedding ring? Batman shook his head. It was just a ring.....It could mean nothing.... Batman continued swinging over Gotham's rooftops,until He disappeared into the shadows of the night....Wondering what could have been....and what WAS....

She cried and tried something else, she put the ear piece back and made some adjustments and started to realize something, she looked down seeing something with a symbol on it, her eyes went wide "He doesn't remember..." She looked at the ground and sighed. "Batman.....I know something is wrong....meet me in the alley behind the theater, i will answer yoru questions because the man you went after did something to you" Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged It's Not Who You Are Underneath...but What You Do That Defines You Forum Jump--------------------» Home--------------------» The Forum--------------------- Rules- Updates- Suggestions And Complaints- Questions- The Story--------------------» Character Creation--------------------- Taken Characters- Applications- Gotham Residents--------------------» Gotham City--------------------- Gotham Square- Wayne Tower --- Wayne Enterprises --- Applied Sciences- Wayne Station- The Police Department --- The Roof- The Opera House- The Court House- The District Attourney's Office- GothCorp- The Wayne Hospital- The Gotham Church- The Clock Tower- The Gotham Cemetary- Falcone's Black Market Club- The Iceburg Lounge- The Docks- The Sewers- Crime Alley- The Slums- The Gotham Carnival- The Gotham Museum Of History- Gotham Plaza- The Thomas Wayne Bridge- The Narrows Bridge--------------------» The Narrows--------------------- Arkham Asylum --- CELL 0801:Joker,The --- CELL 0241:Crane,Jonathan- Stonegate Prison- Ace Chemicals- The Oil Mill--------------------» Homes and Mansions--------------------- Wayne Manor --- The Batcave --- Bruce And Rachel's Room- Rachel Dawes' Apartment- Jim Gordon's Home- Jonathan Crane's Lair- Edward Nigma's Apartment- The ?- Selina Kyle's Apartment- Harleen Quinzel's Apartment--------------------» Out Of Gotham--------------------- Hawaii- The Honeymoon Suite--------------------» Out Of Continuity--------------------- General Board- The Dark Knight- The Gotham Globe- Fan Creations- Requests
