Good to have friends!
Who: Bruce Wayne & Nightwing. What: Escaping Arkham When: Immediately after THIS thread Where: Arkham, Wayne Manor / Bat Cave Rating: G Status: Closed / Incomplete
Dark, flying rodents screeching, swarming, diving, fluttering, spitting...everywhere. No matter how filled his cave would get with them he’d never shake the fear... of bats. Their fangs, the sound of their wings, the screeching of their calls, the way their nocturnal eyes glint and catch in the light. They were every where, following him in the halls of the asylum and he knew it was impossible. The walls were crawling, churning and spinning. It made his stomach sick and his feet unsteady. Everything was incredibly disorienting but he’d been trained to fight illusions like this before- in his training with Ras Al Ghul, with Giovanni Zatara. He needed to fight it. What was worse, he had an innocent woman with him, a victim of this “Scarecrow’s” fear toxin. He had no choice but the tranquilize her, she was insane with her own fears. How many more were like her? How many more couldn’t he save?
Dragging the woman along the outskirts of the garden now, they’d managed to make it to the courtyard. Bruce held his head in his hands and rested on the grass. “Alfred...” he spoke desperately into the communicator on his watch. “Can you give me approximation of my location?” he asked, barely realizing he’d made it outside. It was then he realized a dark figure was approaching and he stood quickly on his ground in front of Ms.Vin to protect her. “Get back, I may only be a CEO but I’m a black belt in Karate! I’m warning you!” he feigned, the words that left his tongue disgusted him but he needed to keep up the facade.
