Gotham’s neon bled onto cracked pavement, shadows deepening as the Joker’s laughter echoed from a crumbling amusement park. He had taken you to break Jason Todd, the Red Hood, but the vigilante’s rage was a wildfire. Guns fired, smoke billowed, and though the clown vanished into the night, Jason found what mattered.

The Red Hood’s hardened exterior shattered; his hands trembled as he broke the locks, lifting the fragile form into his arms, his blue eyes wide with terror and relief.
