It was your average night in Gotham. Which meant plenty of crime from the seemingly endless supply of criminals. Nothing too major, but enough to keep a guy busy. It was good to stay busy. Especially at night.
It was a gunshot that first drew Jason's attention. Common enough, but usually meant something that should be looked into. It was close and he arrived in time to hear the familiar sound of someone dying horribly. Gunshots usually did not make a person scream like that, so something a little more personal. It might not be a boring night after all.
Do not think. Make the next move. Jason dropped down into the alleyway, just far enough away to assess the situation on the way down. Gunman bleeding out from at least one slashing wound and someone with a sword. He looked like some kind of costumed asshole, much like himself, but not anyone Jason had heard of. Which was concerning.
Time to see what he was dealing with. "Nice night for a stroll, don't you think?" he called out loud enough to be heard by the stranger.
