[NPC] More than just a butler. (Alfred Pennyworth)
#2
Bruce enjoyed the snappy remarks of his old friend again. From the moment Alfred arrived to the Omniverse, things started to look a whole lot better. Still, a whole lot of questions remained unanswered. Both he and Alfred have been keeping tabs on the news both imperial as Dataverse, hoping to figure out just how many of his friends or foes were brought here by Lex's machine. So far, neither had any luck in their investigation.

"What's on your mind master Wayne?" Alfred saw straight through him, like an open book the older man was able to pick up any sign when it came to the thoughts and simple read through his master.

"It's been a few weeks since my arrival to this dimension, and so far still no word or sign of the others. Either the others are laying low or I'm the only one that got send here."

"From what I've seen it's a pretty large world Master Wayne, I'm pretty sure you won't find them overnight. In the meantime, how are your 'evening walks' going?"

Bruce walked to a small table and poured himself a drink. As the water calmly flowed out of the bottle into the clear and spotless glass, "Subtle as always Alfred. A necessary exercise to maintain my sanity, you of all people should know." With a glass half filled he drank from the glass, leaning nonchalant against the table.

"Of course, sir. So what is the next step?"

Bruce remained quiet for a while, thinking long and hard about the very good question that just presented itself, the next step. "I'm unsure,  the way we are currently investigating the situation is not really working for us. I need time to think this through." Bruce walked to a grey coat that was hanging over one of the dining room chairs.

"Going for a walk again Master Bruce? You sure you took the right jacket for the occasion?"

Bruce continued to put on his jacket and straightened it, like anyone from the upper class, he'd make sure he would look the part. "Don't worry Alfred, I'm going to the hospital. That woman that I brought to the hospital a few weeks back get's released today, I wanted to be there as she did."

"Are you sure that is your only intention?"

Immediately Bruce knew he was referring to Sarah, the nurse who took care of the woman he saved. It was a mistake to tell Alfred about his encounter with her. And an even bigger mistake to inform him that he has had regular contact with Sarah. It didn't matter, he did what he had to do to make sure Bruce was seen around Coruscant regularly, and if it was with a woman, all the better. "Yes, Alfred, that’s my only intention. I can trust you will resume our research on the dataverse?" He said as he finished closing his coat.

"Of course master Wayne, stay out of trouble will you?"

Bruce nodded as he stepped out.
