Unusual people (Batgirl and Nightwing)

Oswald, had decided to update his aquarium with new sharks, octopuses, penguins, etc. He walked down the staircase to the Aquarium section. Opening the metal door that was somewhat heavy and large. He walked in, and the place already smelled like fish. Smelled like home in a way. He had his team update everything and get rid of things that weren't needed. After cleaning the Aquarium and training his penguins, he went back up the stairs entering an elevator. Now going up to his private level.

He noticed that his bird cage was missing with his birds. He had many birds, in multiple cages. Smaller ones in smaller ones, larger ones in larger ones. "Sherry!! Where is my Bird Cage!" Sherry didn't answer.

Oswald was pissed, he liked his falcon cage, right where he left it. "SHERRY!!!" A thunderous roar, came from his mouth. Still no reply. This was ridiculous, she should be here. He pressed down on a small green button that turned on his private channel with his security team. "Will one of you bafoons please find Sherry and my Falcon cage.

" As soon as he did that. A man was sweating and his nervous aura was felt by Cobblepot who was shocked to see him there. Shocked that he was just standing there and not doing anything. "What! What do you ya want!' "Penguin.. um we have a problem.. I took the cage out for cleaning and the falcons flew away. I'm sorry, and I'll work double time to fix it."

"Fix it you say." Penguin's eyes lit up like a lightbulb. This incopetant idiot lossed six falcons. Penguin grabbed his umbrella and clicked the button on it, a flash of smoke and a gunshot was heard. Bullet went straight into the man's chest killing him instantly. Penguin put the Umbrella down and seemingly penguin like ran over to the man, looking down on him in a devilish manner. " Tell me sooner, and I may have put the bullet in your head." Oswald kicked the body twice. The elevator doors opened and one of his security guards came up, noticing the body with uneasyness. "Joseph, glad you could join me. Take the body and dispose of it in the Vulture pen. Remove evidence of him being here."

Joseph continued staring at the body. "Joseph!". He immediately snapped and looked at Cobblepot. "Uh, Yes Mr. Cobblepot". Joseph took the man and dragged him into the elevator, the doors closed as Cobblepot waved goodbye. "Idiotic sicophante. "Sorry mr. Penguin, but I lost your birds". Good thing I shot the bastard. The vultures will enjoy his services more than I will." He smiled, he loved being the center of attention. His influence was perfect, his power and prestige in the city growing daily.

The election for Mayor was soon, and he would put his name in. Cobblepot had kept things clean, no one would be able to mess up his goal of being mayor, no one. He walked over to the table and started skimming the newspaper. Reading about who intends to run..

[Dick Grayson - Nightwing]

(ooc: Let me know if there is anything you would like me to change about it)


Since the FBI had been in town, everyone in town was trying to keep things on the down low. Even the vigilantes had been cutting back in there work to try and avoid any of the FBI. But the Bat-family was still trying to keep their pace. Keeping tabs on all the crook in Gotham, even if they were in Arkham. There were times when things seemed to be too quiet in Gotham. And when Gotham was quiet, something was about to blow. It was only a matter of time before something went down.

Dick had taken the time to look over some old business of the criminal record files. And now was the time to strike when everyone thought the vigilantes would stay quiet during these times as well. Just because the criminals were taking their time to plan out and not act, didn't mean the vigilantes were going to do the same.

That night, Nightwing found himself outside of the Iceberg Lounge. He had keep an eye on almost all the crooks in town. And the Penguin of late had been one of the quiet ones. Dick knew better than to trust some people thinking maybe the guy was turning around his life. Like that was going to happen. After the FBI had come into down, the Penguin seemed to go under the radar, even with shipments being stopped the guy usually seemed to find away to get what he needed.

The guy was rich and tried to keep his criminal life in the dark. But for the Bats it wasn't enough to throw them off. And Nightwing wasn't about to buy into his who act going on. Something was up and he was going to try and find out some information. Even if that meant questioning the Penguin.

Nightwing sat on a rooftop of a near by building, hiding in the shadows. He looked through a small part of binoculars to get a closer look of what was going on in the place. He could see the Penguin was in the upper level and it was time to make a move while his help was out. Nightwing put the binoculars away and glanced down at a digital monitoring screen he held in the other hand. "Come on Batgirl...you said you'd be here," he mumbled to himself. He had been waiting too long for his likes. He knew Babs probably got caught in some other work and knew she would catch up once she got there.

Well, looking at the time, he had done enough waiting. It was time to pay the Penguin a visit. He placed all his gear back into the compartments he had gotten them from and stayed to the shadows, firing off his line gun to a taller building. Once it hooked, he swung across to the Iceberg's rooftop. He looked around for an entrance.

On the far side was a sky lights. That would have to do. He ran over to it and quietly pried the window open. Nightwing rather sneak in than get noticed. Either way, he was going to get the Penguin's attention. Once it was opened, Nightwing looked in and saw there was no one at the moment. So, he slipped in through the window and jumped down in the the dimly lite room. He crouched down to catch himself and make the landing easier on his legs. He then stood up and looked around the room. Nightwing would wait for the Penguin to come to him. And he was sure the security would have picked up that he was in the building now. He expected the Penguin to know someone was there.
