《The Memorial Day Murders》Chapter 5 : Military evaluation
Advertisement
When I returned Luke has already had the Riddler, now bruised and bleeding, in handcuffs. I noticed a smile on Bruce's face as Luke hauled Riddler to a nearby telephone pole. "You're done?" he asked when I approached. I nodded and stood beside him.
"Who's next when Riddler's down?"
"Mustang you there?" Kate's voice was heard.
"Yeah, I hear you." I replied. Hacking into the nearby surveillance cameras and accessing their footage I now have a clear view of the steel mill's perimeter. "Strange, there aren't any guards patrolling outside."
"Maybe they're inside?" she asked.
"I don't think so. Hang on a sec." I said, noticing a thin veil of red laser light. Focusing on the frame of a vantage point of the building overlooking the steel mill I saw a man, still a thug, glancing from the scope of his sniper rifle. "That's a fail for a sniper." I said. "Unless..." Pulling away from the frame I checked out the three remaining frames and spotted snipers each stationed on vantage points surrounding the mill. "All fails." I sighed in reply. "Come on, the enemy's gonna shoot you first."
"Am I clear?" Batwoman asked.
"Hold on cowgirl, take down the snipers first." I said. "Sending location now."
"Got them." she replied. Leaping off the rooftop she landed on a sniper's location, knocking him out instantly before the nearest sniper can turn his head. Unfolding a batarang from a pouch of her utility belt she threw it out, the projectile hitting the thug square in the face and knocking him out. "Two more." Bruce folds his arms, standing aside as we watch the take down unfold. Jumping off from the vantage point she grappled to a nearby ledge below the sniper's vantage point. While she finds a way into the steel mill I searched for the lieutenant held hostage in the mill.

"Nothing's here on camera." I said. "How are we going to find him?"
"Maybe it's the wrong point." he said. "Every police badge in Gotham PD has a unique serial number. We could try it that way."
"Maybe." I said, scrolling through the police department's database. After keying in the serial number a red dot appeared on screen, blinking in one of the rooms in the layout. "Found him."
"Where is he?" Batwoman asked as the groaning sounds of defeated henchmen were heard over the comms.
"Foundry. And it's not good." I said, accessing the cam footage. "They've tied him up, over hot searing metal. Black Mask is there."
"Saves me time." she replied. As she said that I looked into the availability of the cameras to listen on conversations which it doesn't have.
"Head through the grate exit on your right, Roman would be standing directly behind you."
"Got it." then Kate burst through the grate, pulling Roman out by his feet and throwing out two stun disks at the thugs when they charged. Securing the thugs and Roman to a nearby pole with zip ties Batwoman approached the control panel and utilized the panel to bring the hostage to safety. "Are you alright?" she asked.
"A bit shaken up but I'm fine." the lieutenant replied, brushing the speckles of dust from the sleeves of his uniform.
"Gotham PD's on their way." I said.
"Acknowledged." she said.
"Sorry to interrupt you two lovebirds but we have a problem here." Richard's voice came over the comms.
"What is it Nightwing?" I asked.

"The society of the past even though they had different problems, they must have an answer to their conundrum. Perhaps we can use them too." We continue our research, nights and days have passed, however all of our research only lead to one thing and one thing only the Philosopher's Stone. It could generate energy without having to take any energy. Basically, it broke The Laws of Thermodynamic and Einstein's Law Conservation of Mass Energy, no, all the rule and law that we know of, doesn't apply to the Philosopher's Stone. But how? Where can we found this crimson colored gem? 2094 ADWe the researchers at the Genesis Lab finally found our answer. The Philosopher's Stone is not a Gem or any other precious mineral. It is an Organism, that can replicate itself perpetually. Our greedy minds have already started thinking of various thing especially about 'how can we abuse this poor thing' kind of thought. We can feed them to livestock. Additionally the excrement of those livestock can be used as a fertilizer. Voila! Infinite food and oxygen. But still, we don't know where to find this crimson colored life-form. Spring 2095 ADWE FINALLY DID IT!When we are deciphering some sort of ancient text related to the Mayans, we found out about where it was and how can we obtained it. The method that ancient people used seems to utilize human sacrifice as an offering to Gods. But hey, now we know that Gods exist, and more importantly Their whereabouts. If the ancient people used human sacrifice as the toll to open the portal. Then, we the modern people could simply use some sort of mini-sized black hole with specific coordinate to force this hidden life-form come to this world. Fundamentally, we just needed to mimic the portal that Gods himself open to answer their offering. Allright, let's do this. Summer 2095 ADEverything is progressing as we wanted.Every trivial thing on our side seems to be working in order.We can commence the operation 'Child's Play' early next year.-LB-
