Gotham City After Midnight: The Darkness of Knight

  Gotham City After Midnight: The Darkness of Knight  The Darkness of Knight   1 Andy and Ben were exploring an abandoned mansion on the outskirts of the city. Once inside they found the place abandoned, but practically untouched in decades. Like a time capsule. The place had been looted, but you could see that someone just up and walked away from the abandoned mansion.   The rumors had been that drug dealers lived there. Upon being busted the house was foreclosed on, but that did not appear to be the case. The furnishings didn't seem to match those of criminals, but more like a family.  "Look at this place."

In fact they probably knew the police department wouldn't be pulling over as many vehicles. So they'd get a little benefit from these treacherous storms.  As Batman made his way across the rooftops he saw two men. One of them created from the lightning strikes as they crashed into each other creating someone who clearly wasn't a mortal human. Batman didn't see where the second man came from, but he appeared to be a gladiator of sorts. Batman had no time to waste. Approaching them quickly, and out of the shadows of darkness.  They heard him before they could see him. "Who are you two?" Batman's voice gravelly and harsh.  "I'm Raiden...the God of Thunder." Replied the first one.  "Who are you?" Replied the second one. "Do you come with the ...
