Scarecrow limped his way through a crumbling corridor under the Heracles Theater. He and Joker were so close to beating Stein and Spirit, he could practically taste it, but a single powerful strike from Stein sent Scarecrow spinning through the air and into one of Death City's many channels. He could have stayed in weapon form and let the current carry him safely out of the city, but he returned to human form as soon as he entered a tunnel and a half-kishin ambushed him, dragged him back into the water, clawed his face, and broke his leg. He morphed his right hand into a scythe blade and stabbed it before it could do any more damage, but he wasn't going to get far in the condition he was in and he knew it. He dragged himself into a fissure and used some scrap metal to make himself a crude brace for his leg. He waited for three days for Joker to come and find him, and when Joker didn't come, he set out for the theater under the cover of darkness.
He made it up to the auditorium and saw a long pale arm sticking out from some rubble…Stein? He shoved the rubble aside and saw that it was not Stein. He stared down in disbelief at Joker…lying dead. He had a gaping hole in his chest that went all the way through and a look of total shock frozen on his dead face instead of his usual grin. Trembling, Scarecrow lifted the body by the shoulders and let what blood remained drip onto his tunic rather than let it leave a trail. He dragged it back down the way he came, through the sewers, through the city's mercifully empty streets and into Hook Cemetery…the last place Stein was likely to come looking for them. He set Joker down, used his blade-hand to slice the lock off a nearby shed, and opened the door to find four shovels. He took one and began digging, ignoring the pain in his leg as best he could. When he'd made a hole just deep enough to fit Joker inside, he rolled him in and covered him with damp soil. He then ripped the nearest tombstone from its proper place, scraped the plaque off, and carved a large crude J into it. Joker deserved better, but this would have to do. He set the stone over Joker's grave and dragged himself to Stein's house. He didn't have time to mourn his partner, he had to get far away from Death City, but there was one last thing he needed to do first.
He made it to Stein's house, looked in every window, and saw that he was not here. He was probably on his way to the theater to look for Joker's body right now. He had hoped to find Stein passed out so he could end him here and now, but he got another idea; he used his blade-hand to inscribe an encrypted message on Stein's front door…when decoded, it would read Madness will tear death city apart. He welcomed any opportunity to make Stein suffer and robbing him of a night of sleep was the best he could hope for right now. Without waiting for Stein to show up, he limped his way further away from the city until he spied a truck. The driver had stopped to have a cigarette, so Scarecrow knocked him out and got inside. The key was still in the ignition, so he took off, determined to put as much distance between himself and Death City as possible before it ran out of gas. As he drove, all he had on his mind was revenge. Scarecrow may have been the brains of the duo, but Joker was the heart and soul; Stein's punishment had to be spectacular…an inspiration, Joker wouldn't have approved of anything less.
It should be on a night that's very special to them. He thought. The anniversary of the founding of the Academy? No, Medusa did that.
It had to be a night that gave everyone just as much joy, if not more. And then…it hit him.
Christmas Eve…
Scarecrow would lay low and return Christmas Eve…no…next Christmas Eve. That would give him plenty of time to get some helpers and concoct a fool-proof plan. He would track down the Academy's most troublesome living enemies and with their help; he would take all of Stein's friends and allies out of the picture, leaving him all alone…just like Scarecrow was now.
