    In the vibrant city of Gotham, Nightwing, the trained protege of Batman, patrolled the quiet streets. A strange device in a suspicious van caught his attention.

    As Nightwing approached the van, a beam of light engulfed him. He felt a sudden jolt of pain and realized his gyatt had grown in size.

    The beam came from a ray gun. It was a device designed by the notorious villain, Dr. Klyburn. She intended to use it to wreak havoc on Gotham.

    Nightwing, despite his discomfort, knew he had to stop her. But his gyatt was now a hindrance, making it difficult for him to move.

    He contacted Oracle, his trusted ally, and informed her about his predicament. Oracle was shocked but promised to find a solution.

    Meanwhile, Nightwing had to stop Dr. Klyburn. He knew that the ray gun could cause widespread panic if used on the citizens.

    With his agility compromised, he had to rely on his intellect. He decided to infiltrate Dr. Klyburn's lab to disable the ray gun.

    Nightwing reached the lab, hidden in the city's outskirts. He had to be careful not to alert Dr. Klyburn of his presence.

    He managed to sneak past the guards and locate the ray gun. It was guarded by an advanced security system, requiring a voice command to disable it.

    Nightwing cleverly recorded Dr. Klyburn's voice and used it to bypass the security system, shutting down the ray gun.

    Meanwhile, Oracle found a way to reverse the effects of the ray gun. She needed Nightwing to return to the Batcave for treatment.

    Nightwing, after disabling the ray gun, was caught by Dr. Klyburn. She was furious and intended to use another experimental weapon on him.

    As she prepared to fire, Nightwing launched a smoke bomb, creating a diversion. He managed to escape and headed towards the Batcave.

    At the Batcave, Oracle had prepared an antidote. Nightwing was administered the antidote, and his gyatt started to return to its normal size.
