Chapter 13 - The List

George was in the captain's office along with his partner recounting what they saw. "....Then he vanished. " " what do you mean he vanished?" The captain asked, he had listened to the story but all it did was leave him with more questions.

"I mean he vanished, there was a bang and then he was gone." The captain held the bridge of his nose as he heard what they just said , " at least we have confirmed... okay we are leaning more to him being human and we have a drawing of him " he places his hand on a sketch created by a sketch artist, after a moments pause he speaks to the detectives once more" okay go ahead and interrogate Antoine, I want to know who this..... batman is maybe he can give as a clue as to who he is or what the batman was after."

George and his partner moved out of the office and headed to go interrogate Antoine. " So George, why do you think he's doing this?" Matt questioned George as the were on their way." I don't know what he's after, but what I do know is no one in their right mind goes around beating other's in a bat suit and even if he is trying to do good, one does not go outside the law to obtain justice. " George spoke with a strong conviction which stunned Matt.

George was a strong believer of the law and he did not believe in vigilantes. They soon arrived in the room where Antoine was kept, "I want my lawyer" he spoke immediately he saw them enter the room. George moved towards them and dropped a folder filled with evidence on the table, " illegal possession of narcotics, selling narcotics, selling under age girls and a whole list of offences.... I think this is enough to keep you behind bars for a long time. So go ahead call your lawyer I want to see if he is that good. "

Seeing all the evidence the indifference in Antoine's face disappeared it was replaced by a slight look of panic but he remained silent. Matt decided it was time to cut in, " look we are after the guy that came after you.... you cooperate, then we can help to reduce your sentence which you are definitely going to obtain when you go to court. Do you have any idea who the batman is or what he was after."

Antoine remained silent as his mind remembered everything, he began to weigh his options he either kept his mouth shut and hoped the people behind him felt he was worth it and came to save him or he took his chances and confessed. Antoine was silent for a while before he spoke up " he was after the list..."

In the batcave

Jeffrey had managed to grab the flash drive and escape and was now before his computer which had finally decoded the flash drive.

"Have you found anything sir?" Sebastian came right behind him asking. " It seems to be a list. A very interesting list, most of the people on this list were the people running the place but now it seemed they were all wolves in sheeps clothing. " Jeffrey looked through the list and was surprised by the sheer number of people on the list as well as the power the people on the list had.

" Oh my! What now master Jeffrey? " Sebastian asked " It seems I have my work cut out for me."

In an undisclosed location

"master Antoine has spoken to the police and apparently the batman has the list." A man dressed in a prim suit came up to a man who was in a office chair looking at a video of Antoine in the station.

"Oh? whose this batman?" The 'master' asked his man " he appeared a month ago and apparently all who have seen him claim he is a demon. He is also the reason Antoine was caught he provided the evidence as well." "Oh now that is interesting. Find out everything about this batman" "Yes sir! erhm..... sir what about Antoine." the 'master ' sneered at what his man said " He has lived long enough don't you think. "

"I understand." The man then proceeded to walk out , the master spoke to himself " batman huh..... interesting "
