| Storyline |
A Wayne
employee was killed in Kravia when his vehicle drove over a land mine. His
daughter and her friend were missing. After talking it over with Alfred,
Batman parachuted into the country with a mine-sniffing dog. His dog was
immediately killed by a sniper. The next morning, he found a group of
locals who thought they might have seen the girls he was looking for. What
he found there was parts of the girl, also killed by a mine. He eventually
caught up with the mine-laying terrorists and took them down. Using one of
their guns, he shot the mines they'd placed. After encountering their
leader, he followed an envoy she'd sent out for the missing girl. Batman
rescued the girl and the local couple who had been taking care of her. As
he called for his helicopter, the girl reached for what she thought was a
toy. She was killed by the mine. |
