Welcome to the crime-ridden city of Allendale, a city in northern England. The year is 2043. The city is ruled by the Mafia, "El Sombra," and the corrupt, dirty police have all been bought out by said mafia. Well, most of them, of course. Some detectives haven't been corrupted, yet are helpless to do anything against the other members of the police. During all of this, a masked madman has been going on a murder spree, killing important people, and leaving behind nothing but a playing card and their dead bodies. This man has come to become known as "The Bishop of Death."

One dark, stormy night, a particular detective is called in to investigate the murder of a man, seemingly just a normal person. when they arrive they find that the killer is still near the scene of the crime.

Ugh. Theo couldn't believe that he had to do an investigation today. It was his favorite weather, the perfect weather to sit by an open window, letting the soft breeze hit your face as you read a book....not the perfect weather for doing work. Especially detective work, for that matter, as the rain could affect the evidence. But he couldn't get lost in daydreams of books, as he had work to do, and it had to get done now.

Sighing, Theo looked for evidence, taking as many pictures as he could. ~~ughh I woke up an hour and a half ago so sucky posts~~

I swear, I'm really trying
It just don't come natural to me to think that you'd want me for me
I swear, I'm really trying
Oh, I'm sorry, I promise, I'm doing my best
I just haven't learned how to be human as you are yet

Just out of sight of Theo, a shadow darted out of the room, out the window. The window creaked open, and a blast of chilly English air came into the room. This figure's shadow was barely visible through the corner of Theo's line of sight.

At first, Theo could barely see the shadow and thought it was a trick of the lightning. One of the many illusions that stormy nights cast. But when he heard the window creak and felt the cold air, he knew something was up. While it could've just been a coincidence that the window was barely open before and the air could've given the nudge it needed, he had a suspicion that wasn't the case.

Theo hesitantly approached the window, shivering a little bit.

Outside, a figure, clad in black, with sharp, cold, blue eyes, looked straight at the aspiring detective, clinging to the building opposite to Theo's. He seemed to laugh.

"Good job! You found me!"

Theo seemed unimpressed, a little angry even. Perhaps I've found the murderer. If he is, then that's a lot of wasted potential on someone so... He didn't finish his thought as he eyed the stranger.

Crossing his arms and narrowing his eyes, he called back. "And who exactly are you?"

"Oh, you cop fellows have a lotta names for lil' 'ol me. What was the one they gave me in the papers a few days back? Ah that's right!"

The man smirked under his mask.

"The Bishop of Death, I think? I dun' know."

"Ah, yes. Something about a playing card and 'leaving no evidence'." Theo said, almost laughing. "Honestly, news papers exaggerate too much. There's no such thing as 'leaving no evidence', as everything and anything could be considered evidence. But enough rambling. Why do you stay there, not fleeing?"

"I enjoy watching people struggle. 's quite amusing ta' watch as ya' cop fellows attempt ta' figure out who killed all these... worthless heaps o' trash."

The man was still hanging off the building, grabbing onto a windowsill with one hand, even through all this rain. The mask covered only his mouth and nose, and he let his long, golden hair loose, allowing it to sway in the wind.

"Hmm. Noted. So I'm the first to actually spot you? Maybe don't be so reckless with the creaky windows next time." Theo said, leaning on the windowsill. "Unless, and may I propose this insane theory...you wanted to be seen?"

"Oho! Wonderful detective work, sir. Though I do believe that's your job."

Kendo pulled down his mask, grinning.

"Your accent implies you aren't from around here. New to town?"

"Heh, thanks. And, yeah, moved here a few weeks ago." Theo responded, slightly confused. Is this guy lonely, or does he actually want to talk to me? ...his face-

"Now you must be wondering: 'Oh! Why is this devilishly handsome man taking time out of his *busy* schedule just ta' talk to lil' 'ol me?' Well, that's because You're not corrupt, yet. Unlike everyone else, 'Da mafia didn' get t' 'ya yet!"

"Wouldn't be my exact words, but close." Theo whispered. I agree with the handsome part though...But! That's besides the point! "...Your point being..? I already know about the 'corrupt' stuff."

"I need your help! While the police is as incompetent as they come, The mafia's a real pain the the 'ol neck, 'ya know?"

The mystery man pulled up the hood of his cloak, pulling up his mask.

"If you want to work with me, come to the alleyway behind Goode & Draken's Law Firm at midnight."

The man gave the detective a salute.

"That's about it! Adios, mi Amigo! See you there!"

He let go of the windowsill he was hanging onto, and disappeared into the night, using what seemed to be wrist-mounted grappling hooks to speed off.

Theo watched him leave, and stood there for a few moments, contemplating. Goode and Draken's Law Firm at midnight...hm... He looked around for a moment, then shrugged. Eh, why not? There's nothing else interesting anyway. And about this case...I'll just tell them what everyone else tells them. He grabbed all of his stuff before leaving.

It was about 7 PM, so there was plenty of time left. The sky was dark, and it was pouring rain. Quite windy as well.

The man's shadowy figure was seen jumping across the tops of building, flying though the air as if he were some sort of acrobat.

Midnight is in...five hours. ...One of the most famous criminals and of course I'm the one who spots him. This better be worth my time and not be a trap. Theo was walking home, carrying all of his stuff. ...Atleast it makes my job easier to file the paperwork...and then I can spend the next few hours reading.

In a alley somewhere, the man pulled off his black clothing, revealing the clothing underneath. He carefully tied his hair up into a ponytail and put on a pair of glasses, before pulling up the hood of his jacket. He slung a backpack over his shoulder and made his way to a nearby cafe.

I just need to file the case paperwork. And then I can finish reading my book. ...I've atleast gotta thank him for making my job easier. He was just thinking to himself while he walked, because he didn't have anyone to talk to anymore.
