Everyone Knows (Except the Two People Who Should)
Danny Fenton has been living in Crime Alley for three years.
He showed up around the same time Red Hood did.
He’s strong. Fast. Weirdly durable. Doesn’t flinch at gunfire. Gets into fights to protect people who can’t protect themselves. The working girls adore him. The kids follow him around like ducklings.
And—most importantly—he once picked up a gun and shot a guy’s weapon clean out of his hand from across the street.
So, naturally, everyone in Crime Alley knows Danny Fenton is Red Hood.
They are very polite about not saying it out loud.
Crime Alley protects its own.
Danny, meanwhile, has no idea what’s going on.
“Why do I have three hitmen after me this week?” he complains, ducking another bullet. “I didn’t even do anything!”
(He absolutely did do something. It’s called existing with Fenton luck.)
The weird part?
None of these guys are using anti-ghost tech.
Just regular human guns.
Danny is deeply offended.
Jason Todd has a problem.
Because apparently—
He has a civilian identity now.
And that civilian identity is walking around Crime Alley, getting shot at, and somehow not dying.
Jason would like to know:
Who the hell this guy is
Why he’s using Red Hood’s name
How he’s still alive
And most importantly—
Why everyone in Crime Alley is acting like this is completely normal
The real issue?
No one in Crime Alley is stupid enough to tell Red Hood they know his identity.
So no one tells Jason.
And no one tells Danny.
And the misunderstanding?
