Here's the epilogue written from Mr. J's POV. I just wanted to say a massive thank you to ALL the people who reviewed or added me or this story to the favourite/alert list. It means a lot!! Thank you! ^^ (And a special thanks to Rachel C who wrote a tonne of awesome reviews haha)

Y'see, the thing about human nature is… it's so… predictable.

I mean, take Red for instance. When I first laid eyes on her… ha… I knew she hated her father. You can tell when a girl had a bad relationship with her father because they always cling to other men. You show a girl like her an ounce of interest and… she'll be all over you.

Y'see… that's mostly… her… problem.

Now, me on the other hand? I'm never predictable. I sometimes… lead… people to believe that they know what I'm going to do next. But when it comes down to it, no one knows… who I really am.

Want me to prove it? Let's take a look at some facts.

I can come up with a perfect plan to get myself arrested, kill Rachel, kidnap Lau and escape without anyone suspecting a thing. Ha! Not only that but I destroy Harvey's soul in the process.

Then I stick together what looks like a plan doomed to fail. I take two ferries hostage with nothing but the detonator for protection, leaving my mobile phone on so that it can easily be traced and arrange for this to take place in a building where I can't easily escape. Now a normal person would think I just made too many mistakes but Red… She would have seen through it.

So… I had to go to the trouble of mixing up the hostages and my men, dragging a bunch of dogs up to the top floor and setting up a bunch of oil barrels that I never intended to blow up.

HA HA HA. You look… ah… confused.

People just can't be patient, can they? Gotham needs time. All it needs to do is just heal a tiny bit. Let people think that they're picking up the pieces. Nothing causes chaos more than one step forward and two steps back. People think that a bright future is just within their reach and then they get… dragged… under.

Now you think you understand. Now you think I planned to be caught.

Y'see? Humans are so predictable…

No… I didn't plan to be taken to Arkham until the very end. My initial plan was to force Batman to kill me. That's how I wanted it to be.

The thing I didn't want… The thing I… never… wanted… Was Red.

In… about… an hour. She's going to come and break me out. And I'm going to tell her that I like it here. That I don't want to leave. And she'll think it's because I don't… care… about her. Ha. Y'know… people really think they know me. Hm? They think… that I can't have feelings for people. That I can't hate myself for having them. That I can't push her away with everything I have and then annoy myself even more. They think they know me.

But sometimes I… lead… people to think they know what I'll do next.

But Red will do whatever I tell her too. She'll believe whatever I tell her to believe. Because… I'm a man of my word.

HA HA HA HA HA.
