Opening
It was a dark and stormy night, on a place not too much different from the Crime Alley, albeit in a larger size. A young boy, Bruce Wayne himself, saw his feet splashing into the waters the rain produced on the place. Gunshots where heard by the young boy, as well as the sound of pursuit.

- Give me the jewels! Said a figure on a darkened part of the alley. Two shooting sounds were heard, and Bruce Wayne, now an adult, awoke. It was all a nightmare, a nightmare Bruce constantly had since the day in which his parents were brutally killed right in front of him. He was fading, looking around all his vast dormitory, whereupon he saw the portrait of he, eight years old, and his parents, Thomas and Martha.
