Gotham Harbor, the DC Universe , 8:45 PM

(A ferry makes its way towards the Wayne/Stark Interdimensional Portal)
Captain: Making final approach to MU NYC Portal; please fasten seat belts for the transition
(Cut to the cargo hold, with crew members screaming bloody murder)
Crew: AUGH! GET THEM OFF ME! GET THEM OFF ME!
(The boat crosses through the portal, as a mist makes its way into the ventilation shafts)
Queens, the Marvel Universe 8:45 PM
(Ben swings through the streets, his first solo patrol in quite a row)
Ben: (internal) Feels good to have a night to myself again. Love Connor to death. But that kid is crazy.
(Ben lands atop a lamp post)
Ben: (internal) Quiet night, not even any gangs prowling around. Thats pretty odd...
(In an alley a block away)
Random Guy: AUGH! MY GOD!!!
Ben: (internal) There we go...
(Ben leaps into the air and swings fast to the alley, spinning out of the swing and landing on the wall)
Ben: Hey! Sir! You in there?
Random Guy: Augh! AH! AHHHHHHHH!
(The man drops to the ground clutching his chest)
(Ben's eyes widen and he jumps to the mans side)
Ben: Holy shit! Do you need the hospital?! Deep breaths okay? You're gonna be okay!
Ben: What the hell did you do?!
Shadowed Figure (Stepping from the shadows): I showed him the truth; much like I'm doing to you
(Seeing a living Scarecrow, Ben's taken aback as he's hit in the face with a cloud of gas)
(Ben coughs hard)
Ben: What the hell was that for?
(Getting kicked in the head by the Scarecrow)
Scarecrow: TRUTH!
(Ben flies back and feels his nose)
Ben: Ow..
(Ben looks up, the freak is gone.)
Ben: The guy!
(Ben turns to see...nothing)
Ben: The hell...?
(Ben pulls the hood low and pulls his mask up, checking his nose)
Ben: So the perp and the victim disappear...and I get the silver lining of having my nose not broken. I miss the quiet night
(Ben pulls the mask down and jumps back into the air, swinging away)
(From the nearby sewer grate)
Scarecrow: Hehehe....

Our Lady of Saints Church, 8:57 PM
(Ben is sitting atop Our lady of Saints, his mask off.)
Ben: What the hell did that guy get all over my mask? It smells disgusting.
Ben(Cont.): Ah well, there's nothing I can do about it now, and I can't be swinging around without it!
(Ben pulls the mask on.)
Ben: Huh...this place is actually kinda peaceful.
(Ben swings out over the city, hoping to continue his patrol)
Ben: Well, in the eerie church way
Ben breathes through his mouth, trying not to smell the rancid mask as he lands on a light pole outside a hospital)
Woman's Voice: Benjy...
Ben: Huh? What the hell?
(Lands on the rooftop)
Ben: Someone up here?
Woman's Voice: Benjy, why couldn't you save me?
Ben: Mom...?
Man's Voice: I thought you promised me you would keep her safe?
Ben: I..What?
Man's voice: So much for making your old man proud...
Ben: Dad? Mom!?
Voices Together: You let us die.

Rooftops of Queens, 8:57 PM
(Connor goes off swinging through the night, looking for Ben)
Connor: School and homework both suck! I almost completely missed patrol! Now I have to look for him!
(Connor swings past our lady of saints, looking for any sign of ben)
Connor: Man where is he? He didn't answer his phone...
(See's a body in an alley)
Connor: Holy crap!
(Connor swings down into the alley, and checks the man's pulse)
Connor: Oh crap!
(Connor picks the man up and carries him to a familiar hospital, dropping him off in the ER before swinging away)
Connor: Jeez! What a way to start patrol!
Connor(cont.): I've gotta see of there was anything in that alley...
(Connor swings back to the alley where he found the man's body, and begins searching)
Connor: Lets see what we can find here... Beer cans, a yellow stain on the wall... What have we here?
(Connor's Spider Sense goes off as a gloved hand reaches from the shadows and grabs Connor by the neck)
Batman: Where is she!?
