"Jim, get back to the mainland. It's too dangerous here." Batman told Jim Gordan as they approached the boat, with me standing by the railing up by the entrance to the Medical Wing.
"It's good to be back in my armor." I said, placing my helmet on, with everything coming to life. "Access everything on one Doctor Young." I said, with a lot of files popping up, even her bank account. 'Seems like she was getting payed by someone, but for what?' I thought as I looked in the direction of my secret cave. 'After seeing everything in that room, it's clear that she's been experimenting with Venom, and if I know my luck, she made something worse.' I thought, frowning at this. 'I have to get proof first.' I thought, with me looking at Batman as he started running.
Seeing him take down three goons in a matter of seconds, I watched as he ran up the stairs, with me walking up to them and shooting all three of them with trank's, enough to keep them out for a day or two. Following after him, I saw him finishing up with five as I reached the top. "Arkham." Batman said, standing up and looking at me, looking ready for a fight.
"Don't mind me, I'm not going after you, this time." I said, walking up to the wood and sliding a hand against it. "I have a good idea on where the Joker will want his final confrontation, but I'm sure you know this already." I said, looking at him.
"You're right, he wants me to go in to toy with me, but at the moment, I have to get to the Batcave." He said, looking from the doors to me.
"If that's the case, I'll clean up out here, you go do what you need to do." I said, with him nodding as we started walking towards the door. Stepping through, we continued on until we reached a plain door that lead us through a wall.
"Four of them, think you can take them out quick?" He asked, with me pulling out my pistols.
"Too easy." I said, with him grabbing my shoulder.
"No killing." He said, with me looking back at him.
"Trank darts only, as I said earlier, no killing." I said, with him pulling out a grappling hook and shooting it up, where he then took off. "Ok, let's get this started." I said, walking over to the four, who looked at me and started walking around me.
"You lost?" One of them asked, with me looking at him.
"Please, I know my way around here." I said, looking at the others. "Seeing as you guys are looking for a fight, let's get this over with." I said, with one of them running at me with a pipe. Grabbing the pipe, I ripped it away and hit his friend, with me shooting them at the same time. Seeing them fall in front of me, I spun the pipe around and hit the same one again, knocking him out, breaking the pipe. Spinning around, I kicked one of them away and caught the fist of the other one, where I shot him in the leg, with him falling forward soon after. Taking him, I spun around and tossed him at the last one, with him getting pined down by his friend.
Walking over to him, I stepped on him, making him groan as I aimed the gun at him and pulled the trigger, knocking him out. Looking around, I then looked over at the wall, with me running over to it. Jumping on it, I pulled myself over and started heading to Dead Mans Peak.
Later
Walking to the edge, I pulled out a device and dropped it, with it falling into the water below. Seeing the water getting sucked in, I jumped off, with me falling into the now entrance to my cave. Grabbing a wire, I started sliding down it and reached a computer, with me placing my hand on it. Looking to my left, a box opened up, with me seeing EMP grenades on a belt.
Taking the belt, I put it on and started heading towards the waterfall. Looking up, I pulled out my grappling hook and fired up, with me getting pulled along with it. Once I reached the top, I jumped over the edge and landed next to Batman who was placing someone on the ground.
"What took you?" Batman asked, with me looking at him as I walked up the stairs with him.
"I had to find the right way in." I said, with him nodding as we stopped next to the wall.
"Why are we the ones trying to open it? This ain't even the main door. If we even get it open, we don't know what it will do." One of the goons said, with us listening it.
"I ain't going near it, you even touch the door and it'll get you." Another said, with me knowing that they were talking about Crock.
"Yeah, you remember Mickey, right?" Another said, with me rolling my eyes.
"He was an idiot. Deserved to be eaten."
"I say we just tell Joker we couldn't find him. We'll be safer. No one will know." The first one said, with Batman pulling out some batarang.
"Yeah, yeah. That'll work. No one will know. It'll be sweet." The second one said, sounding excited.
"Yeah, let's just wait it out and hope the door holds!" The first said, with me frowning at that.
"Ok, but... Joker never finds out, right? He's worse than Crock." The third said, sounding scared.
"Five in total." Batman said, looking at me.
"Two each, whoever finishes first gets the last one." I said, with us running around the corner. He tossed the batarangs, with them hitting them all. Running over to them, I slid between them and kicked one of them in the groin. Grabbing his head, I slammed it on my knee before back flipping, kicking him and the person behind in in the process. Turning around, I saw Batman using his grappling hook to pull the last one over and headbutting him, knocking him out.
"You're quick, but you need to up your training if you want to beat me." He said, with me nodding.
"I'll eventually get there." I said, following him down the hallway. Walking over to the door, I stopped him. "This leads to Crocks lair, and by the way they were talking, he's free. It would be best not to go in here." I said, with him looking from me, to the door as Crock hit the door, with us backing away from it.
"I will find you. Rip your flesh like paper." Crock said, with us seeing him leave the next second.
"Ya, I'm not messing with that." I said, looking back at him. "How you beat him, is a mystery to me." I said, with us walking the other way and down the other way. Seeing him stop, he held his hand to his ear, with me walking all the way towards the door. Looking back at him, he was still talking to the other person, with me crossing my arms and leaning against the door, waiting for him.
Seeing him walk up to me, we entered the door, with us making our way over to the railing, looking down at the bottomless pit below. "It's hard to believe that they made it down here in the first place." I said, pulling out my grappling hook.
"That is useless, you wont be able to get a grip on anything." Batman said, with me smirking at him.
"Good thing it doesn't grip but pierce." I said, shooting it up and getting a snag. "I'll wait for you at the door!" I said, getting pulled up.
Later
Seeing Batman walking through the door, I dropped the body by the box, with him walking over to me, looking down at him. "He's out cold, he didn't give you any trouble, did he?" Batman asked, with me shrugging.
"I just needed a good opportunity to get him without him calling for backup." I said, with us walking up the stairs.
"Where did you get your training, you had to of started somewhere." He questioned, with me looking at him as we rounded the corner.
"Self taught, most of what I know, I copied from you. Photographic memory." I answered, with him nodding at that.
"Rare to have, you could of been anything with it, yet you come after me. Why is that?" He asked, with us stopping at a wall while he sprayed some explosive gel on it.
"Nothing personal, but if I can beat you, then I can prove my existence. I wont be defined by the child born in Arkham, but the man who defeated the Batman." I said, with him backing up and blowing up the wall, with us seeing a good fall. We both ran across and jumped it, where we walked into the door.
Walking across the destroyed roof, we came to a stop. "Ding don't, Joker again. Don't worry about the Bat. I've put a few surprises along the way if he decides to turn up and spoil the fun." Joker said, with me looking at the guard posts, seeing that the goons had gotten ahold of some sniper rifles. Looking at Batman, he nodding with us taking out our grappling hooks and shooting at different posts, with us getting pulled towards them. I went to the furthest one, with me jumping over and grabbing the man in a chokehold and knocking him out. "Oh, and if you hear a shot in the dark, don't worry. That's very little chance of you getting hurt. It's the Bat I'm after!" He said, with me jumping down and landing on one of the goons below, taking them out as Batman did the same. We both reached forward and flipped the other over us, with us knocking them out. "Still, you might wanna check your health insurance. Who am I kidding? You don't have any!"
"I'm off to the Arkham Mansion, Joker was paying-"
"Doctor Young to make something with the Venom that Bane uses, I know that much, and I'm guessing that's where she is?" I asked, with him nodding.
"The formula was missing, and she knows where it is." He said, with me nodding and following him through the doors.
"You want the three on the left of the two on the right?" I asked, with him looking at me.
"What do you think?" He asked, with me shaking my head as we walked forward.
"Ok, the two for me." I said, with me quickly turning around and shooting them down, with them sliding across the ground while Batman fought the three. Walking over to the two guards that were hung, I reached up and looked at them, with me shaking my head as I didn't know them, but they were still workers here and didn't deserve this.
Seeing two batarangs fly, I watched as they cut the ropes, with me catching one of them and setting them down. "We have to hurry if we are to stop Joker." Batman said, with me following him through the doors.
We shot our grappling hooks up and made my way up to the guard posts. I went to the closer one this time, and pulled the man off, with a wire catching him, where he watched the gun fall down. "I seem to be losing men like there's a plague in town. I guess the Bat is back. I've got a couple of men in the guard towers covering your movements, but be careful. They're both loose canons with itchy trigger fingers and, well, you know, accidents do happen."
Pulling out my grappling hook, I added an attachment to it and held it up, with two wires shooting out of it. One hitting behind me, the other hitting the ledge on the Arkham Mansion. Sliding over to it, I watched as they fired at me, but my shield activated, deflecting the bullets into other directions. Reaching them, I jumped off and tackled one of the two, with me tossing him off. Looking behind me, I aimed my gun at him, but Batman jumped up and landed on him, knocking him out.
"Any available psychos, killers, mailers and murderers that are not yet in the Old Mansion, hurry up, you fools, before I feed you to the Bat himself!" Joker said, with us jumping down and entering through the front doors.
