“Help me! Someone
please!” A woman cried from a parking lot as she was being mugged. Her
assailant ripped her purse from her arms and took whatever money he could. Soon
after, he slugged the woman in the right temple with a over-hand right and threw off her balance. He
took advantage of this and tackled her to the ground as if he was a linebacker.
He began tearing the woman’s clothes off and unzipping his blue jeans. At this

He then tosses him like a rag doll and checks up on the victim.
“Are you alright?”, Asked
the Caped Crusader as he was removing blood from his suit.
“Yeah, I’m okay. Just a

“Hey, I never got a chance to say thanks!” She turns back around to make eye
contact with Batman. “So than-”
Gone.
He was nowhere to be found. It’s just her
and her attacker lying on the ground grimacing in pain. Jennifer looks around.
