Outside the Gotham Public Library
Dana Tan walked out of the library, a pile of books in her arms. She had a long paper to work on for her Western Civ class, and she wanted to get a good start on it.

About halfway back to her dorm on campus at Gotham University, she got the feeling that someone was calling her.

"Is someone there?" She turned her head over her shoulder. No one. She was probably just being paranoid. Yeah, that's what it was. Paranoia. She continued walking.

Okay. This time she was almost sure that she thought that she heard footsteps behind her.

"Hello?" Her voice shook, and she sounded afraid. Which, she was. She could feel the shivers going down her spine, as she continued to walk back to her dorm, keeping her eyes peeled.

And then...someone sprang out from behind and clamped a hand over her mouth. Dana struggled, trying to scream, but an overwhelming smell caused her vision to blur, and her world went black.

The man grinned, carrying Dana down an empty alleyway. Things were starting to fall into place.
