Nightblood

Chapter 4 - A Sidekick Or A Nuisance? (Mini Chapter)

I've decided to patrol by what the locals now call, "Ghetto Vee" on 1st Ave. I'm now standing on top of that particular Hyvee and am looking at the very worn down looking area here. This place has the smell of old blood, s.e.x and drugs. I'm in the right place. Turning into my bat form, I flew over the southeast side of Cedar Rapids and sure enough, not too long later I found trouble makers.

There is a drug deal going down and I smell gun powder, so the dealer and the buyer are armed. To make matters worse, the buyer is just some young kid probably only 15. They're selling drugs to kids.. Time to die sc.u.m! I darted forward in my bat form, and rapidly tore out the throat of the dealer. Sorry kid, got blood in your face. The kid collapsed onto the ground and started firing off his gun. I warped behind him in humanoid form and chopped him behind his neck. I took his gun away and used his fingers to dial the cops on his cell. Pocketing the gun, I quickly left my calling card in blood on the side of the black Escalade. Then I turned into bat form and flew away.

However before I made it into the air, a hand caught me and brought me into a pair of b.r.e.a.s.ts. A woman? Reverting my form, I leapt back and stared in disbelief. The woman was wearing a blue and black colored version of my outfit except she didn't have a cowl like I do. Is she a fan? Suddenly the woman, or rather young girl as I realized spoke.

"So you have a cowl Nightblood? I'll need to get one too.. I'm called Nighthawk and I wish to be your disciple. Please take me under your wings great night stalker!" The girl then got down on one knee and stuck out her left wrist palm up. Ah I see, she wants to be turned. I sighed and shook my head. "I'm flattered. Really. However, I'm not looking for disciples or partners at this time. I'm a solo act, so sorry I can't accept you." I thought the girl would listen to me but she surprised me by giving me a fancy looking business card that said Nighthawk and had an email address on it. I smirked and pocketed the card before swiftly departing the area.

Nighthawk huh? Hmmm... Maybe in the future. I'm now back downtown in CR and I am currently eavesdropping on an interesting conversation below me in front of the Doubletree hotel. A man and a woman were talking. "Lucien, the elders in our Illuminati have discovered the Chalice of The Other World. The goal of creating a purely good world somewhere else by filling ours with pure evil can finally be realized! We can unlock the prisoners of Hell and set them loose upon the Earth!" This was said by the woman in her 40's roughly. The man chuckled and said, "Indeed. To our greater enlightenment! To the holiness of the Other World! May we see Terra soon!" I laughed inside at their behavior, but part of me was worried. Will I be fighting the Illuminati?

After listening to the absurd and chilling conversation, I made my way back to my mansion. Not too long a smile lit up my face as I laid eyes upon my abode after a night of miscellaneous encounters. I think I'll take a break from being Nightblood for a week and focus on getting more hobbies. Maybe I should consider joining a swimming club or something, or maybe go clubbing. The world is mine to enjoy forever.
