It was a warm Night in Gotham but the coldness of crime hung over the city sending Goose Bumps up any one's arm who dares to walk on the streets in the night.
In an abandoned apartment building two villions had hidden them selves, slowly plotting the perfect doom for the city.
One stood near the window his shadow could be seen, a man like person with metalic wings and Armour, ...
The FireFly. The other could not be seen.
[Inside the appartment building]
"I say we burn this city to a crisp," the FireFly stated.
His partner the other villian replied saying...

“I say let’s flip on it” replied the other villain. Two Face stood and turned towards Firefly. He pulled put his coin and flipped it into the air. The coin spun upwards and fell back down into Two Face’s open palm. He looked up from the coin to Firefly. “I hope their Fire Insurance is paid up”

"Okay excelent," FireFly cackled, "Now heres the plan."He leaned closed to TwoFace's ear and whispered a plan. When he was finished he braught up his head and said,"The first thing we have to do is take over the fire department."

“Take over the Fire Department?” Two Face looked displeased. “No we do what Bane did to Batman and run them ragged and then break them!”<br>
“You do the torching and I’ll cover you” Two Face pulls out a large gleaming hand gun.

"You don't see the beauty of the plan, if we control the fire department, who will put out the fires?" the Firefly questioned "And if we feel like doing some community service we can help the fire department, but we wont be spraying water on the fire we would be more of feeding them with, oh say gasoline."

"I see now..." mused Two Face. "...we hold Gotham hostage." All at once Two Face understood. "Pay up or burn down" he laughed a wicked laugh.

"Then it's a plan," replied FireFly who smiled under his mask Gotham is mine he thought. "We will take over the Fire Department tommorow night. All we have to do is make sure the bat isn't around send 2 of your men out to break into a jewlery shop as a distraction."

Gotham Gemstones was one of the oldest jewelry stores in Gotham. It sat in the shadow of Wayne Tower in the Diamond District for as long as anyone could remember.
The alarm was still blaring as GCPD milled about the broken glass and twisted metal bars. The safe had been cut open and most of the contents were gone. Glass cases were broken and empty.
Commissioner Gordon arrived and surveyed the damage. He looked up from the debris and notice a shadow cross the wall. “Everybody out, we need to wait for the Crime Scene guys”. The officers filed out of the store and he was alone, “Catwoman?” he asked out into the darkness.
“No, she’s cleaner than this.” Batman emerged from the shadows. “They cut the alarm first and then wrecked the place and spliced the wires back and set if off as they left” he continued. “Joker, then?” asked Gordon. “No, more like Two Face” replied Batman. “Why him? Why this store?”. The two men just stood in the darkness.
Gordon looked around and out the front window and down the street. Way off in the distance a eerie amber glow was coming from behind the buildings downtown. “That looks like a bad fire” he said motioning to glow in the distance. “That looks like why to me” Batman said grimly as he realized this heist might not be what it seemed. Gordon looked back to the fire “What do you mean…” and then back to Batman who was gone”…I hate when he does that”.

"Did you take care of the distraction?" Firefly questioned.
TwoFace had just entered there hideout. Carrying a sack full of jewlery.
"Well I'll take that as a yes. Stash those in the back, we got to get to the fire department," FireFly ordered.

*Wayne Manor, in the study*
Tim Drake sits in the study of Wayne Manor, puring over page-after-page in the Chemistry textbook.
"This is impossible," I said to myself, after going over the same dimensional analysis problem for the third time.
*Alfred slides into the study, slamming open the french doors"
"I'm sorry for the interuption Master Tim, but a large fire was just reported downtown!"
"Where at", Tim asked.
"Three blocks west of Wayne Tower, close to the Diamondd District."
"And Bruce?"
"I think he was on a jewel theft close by, he shouldn't be too far behind you."
*Tim slammed the book shut and within seconds was in uniform and on the cycle*

Batman walked across the rooftop and crouched atop a gargoyle perched along the top of the building. Gargoyles are the protector of buildings, warding off evil sprits. These gargoyles stood guard as the buildings across the street burned.
It was nearly a city block long. It was a bad fire that could have been much worse. The buildings were largely empty. They were being renovated and some were being torn down for new construction. A LexCorp sign nearby was singed by the flames.
From his perch above Batman watched as GCFD raced to contain and extinguish the fire. He touched his cowl, “Oracle, find me Garfield Lynns”. “Firefly?” she replied. “Yes” confirmed Batman. “He was burned badly in his last fire. He was last known to live in a convalescent home upstate…Why”. “Looks like he may have gotten better” Batman said grimly.

(Gotham Fire Department)
Two dark firgures led a clump of men into the building. One of the leading figures whispered "Knock out the Firefighters and tie them up in the back." To the other figure. Then he walked out of the building saying "I'll cover you."

TwoFace exited the Fire Department, and ran in to the alley where FireFly was Hidding Himself.
"Lets get out of here," FireFly said "Your men can watch the place.
They ran off into the shadows.

The building is in ashes now. A blackened shell that burned most of the night last night. Batman slips in unnoticed in the shadows. Fires are not normally his specialty, but his detective training tells him there is more than meets the eye.
The burn trail is obvious, the seared circle where gasoline or whatever fuel was used to set the fire radiates outward throughout the building. It was clearly arson, but why he wonders. The building was not insured and was set for demolition anyways so why stage a fire.
He stops by a window and looks up from the ruins. In the Gotham night sky, The Bat Signal shines. Another call for help, time to punch in and go to work.
