The Dark Knight: Batman and the Flock of Fear

The Dark Knight: Batman and the Flock of Fear book cover
CHAPTER 1 THE CROW Jonathan Crane couldn’t run fast enough No matter how hard he tried he just couldn’t seem to pick up his pace It was almost like he was wading through deep water His legs wouldn’t do what his brain told them to do Behind him Jonathan heard the caws of the crows He looked over his shoulder There were hundreds of them They were as black as shadows Their wings flapped violently The birds sharp beaks glistened in the moonlight Their jet black eyes were staring right at him That was when Jonathan felt his foot catch on a rock on the cliff side THUDDDDD Jonathan fell to the ground The crows would surely catch up to him now He could see the swirling mass of birds flying closer and closer still His heart pounded in his chest The birds wings flapped loudly in the air But the noise wasn’t quite right Crow wings didn’t sound like that Jonathan squinted at the approaching birds And that was when he realized it They weren’t crows at all The mass of fluttering flying beasts was actually a cloud of bats
