Chapter 2: The Greater Good (Does Not Always Care For The Rules)
Not every thief is a villain, and not every hero plays by the rules
I have no idea if Eric's correct in saying that what DW's doing is illegal or not, and have no clue how Citizen's Arrest work.
In other news, Eric is so use to answering to Thief at this point. XD
"Woo!" The boy laughed as he ran away, jumping from rooftop to rooftop, uncaring of the Terror that chased him through the night.
Said Terror, one Darkwing Duck, growled out "Stop! Thief!"
To his immense surprise, the boy did stop. And turned, a grin on his pale face, contrasting dark hair and clothing. He looked innocent, playful, but shining blue eyes held cunning and trickery.
"Yes?" The boy asked, as if he couldn't fathom why Darkwing had called out to him.
"Er..." Darkwing shook his head, twisting his face into one of confidence, rather than confusion. "You're under arrest for stealing from the Golden Diamonds Golf Club!"
"Really?" The boy blinked. He pulled a notebook from inside his jacket, flipping through it. "You know, I have a lot to do this week, can't really fit in an arrest... How's next Monday work for you?"
"What?!" Darkwing squawked. "Sorry, but justice does not reschedule to fit a villain. Now, surrender peacefully or I'll have to get rough."
"Are you pointing a weapon at an unarmed teenager?" The boy asked, looking at the Gas Gun in amusement. "Not that I'm actually unarmed, mind you, but the cops wouldn't be able to recognize my stuff as weapons. You do realize what you're doing is illegal, right? Maybe I should do a citizen's arrest..."
"Sometimes the law must be ignored for justice's sake." Darkwing shrugged. "The greater good and civilians' safety must come first."
"On that, He Who Flaps On Darkest Nights, we are in complete agreement." With that, and a wink, the boy fell backwards off the building.
"Wait!" Darkwing rushed to the edge, looking over, but the boy was nowhere to be seen. He growled, thinking the boy must've found his way into one of the windows, and rushed into the building to find him.
In his rush, he failed to notice two red flames, peeking from a nearby shadow like a watchful pair of eyes.

This Oliver character gives off young Sheldon Cooper vibes.
Oh my God, I can't believe someone actually read this! :)
I've never thought of Oliver as being like Sheldon, but now that I think about it, there are some similarities.
If you like the character, he actually appears more in my Pure Koraz fic.
