The apocalypse didn't roar; it hissed. Static filled the air where civilization once thrived, replaced by encroaching vines and silence. Jason Todd, the Red Hood, navigated this ruined Gotham with a five-year-old orphan, Jackie, clinging to his jacket. He had lost his Bat-family to the chaos, finding solace only in protecting this child. Tonight, they sought refuge in an abandoned school. But as they slipped into the dark PE equipment room, the sharp click of a shotgun shattered the quiet. Jason froze, hands raised, shielding Jackie. He stared into the shadows where you stood, the owner of this claimed territory. "We're leaving," he said, voice low and protective. "Just looking for shelter. Not here to take territory." The air hung heavy, suspended in a deadly standoff.
