The city is at war
Gotham City was at it's boiling point.

In the streets, the wars between the crime families had reached its breaking point, with the death of another family head that previous night. The police had their hands full with trying to break up riots.

It had taken some very careful planning on his part, but Hush had managed to break out every prisoner in Arkham Asylum. The guards were dealing with their own personal hell, as the most dangerous criminals in Gotham City were all out of their cells, and they were trying to keep them from getting out into the city.

And now...it was time to test Batman and Robin. Hush delivered a package to Terry McGinnis, with pictures of Dana Tan tied up and beaten, along with his location, a warehouse in Gotham Harbor.

Attached was a simple note:

Choose.

This whole thing with Gotham crime families going to war just wasn’t sitting right with Marcus. He had been keeping tabs on them for anything major happening that he could disrupt or blow up in their faces. However not once had he gotten wind of any of the families ordering hits against the others like this. Now maybe one could have gotten by him but no not this many times clearly something was up there.

While he would have liked to look more into what that thing was he had much more pressing concerns to deal with. Namely the gang war currently consuming the city. Personally he could care less about some thugs and gangsters killing each other but there were innocent civilians in caught up in the crossfire which was something he was very much so not ok with.

But is there was one thing he was good at it was being resourceful and he had a plan to focus this violence out of the streets and away from all of those people. He figured if he could cause a big an enough amount of trouble for all the crime families’ fast, kill a bunch of their guys, blow up a bunch of their businesses and wreck a bunch of their major operations they’ll all stop gunning for each other and come after him. It was a bit risky but would definitely be worth it though getting through the finally part might be a bit tricky.

While Marcus was fairly certain he could accomplish all of this rather quickly time really was of the essence. He had heard about a guy operating out of Gotham a black sheep in the league of assassins’ family who had a particular interest in the Gotham crime families and would not minds killing a bunch of them that went by the code name Legacy.

After arranging a meet between the two of them Marcus convinced him to help him out. Though at the same time he could help but feel that this guy would kill him the first chance he got and was good enough that he actually could do it. Still he got the help he needed and at least he knew that the feeling were mutual.
