Chapter 1 Arkham Asylum: The Madhouse
Within Gotham has rain and lightning hits the city and something was going within the streets as police officers setting up roadblocks and allowing a few to go or out, keeping a hard grip on what was going on. The cops soon saw a black battle tank driving past them and know that their prison was coming to his new cell at Arkham Asylum.
"All Units, The Joker has been apprehended. Red Robin is now in route to Arkham Island. Have units on stand by and ready for anything. Over and out," One of the Sergeants said over his ratio, making sure his fellow cops and friends are ready for the madman escape again.
The black tank drive passes police cars and kept driving fast towards Arkham island. (Batman Begins Tumbler with some upgrades)
In Tumbler has a costume hero driving, wearing a red body armor suit, black hood with white eye holes and black cape, golden bird symbol on his chest and utility belt with a lot of gadgets, black battle armored gauntlets that have three razor blades on the side and black boots. This was one of the heroes of Gotham, member of the Bat Family that was once known as Red Robin.
In the back has the madman and crazy villains within Gotham and threat to the Bat Family, The Joker himself. He was cuffed and laughing a little like a mad man.
Now Red Robin won't be doing this and Batman would have done it but the Dark Knight was called in by the Justice League and asked the young hero to watch over his city for the night. The bird themed hero hoped it will be a quiet night but in Gotham, nothing is quiet and here we are.
"Stand back, fool! I've got a bomb…oh right, Hehe, Hehe," Joker said but change into his own joke and laughed.
Red Robin kept driving towards the asylum and not bother with the clown, remembering his training and focus on the task at hand. He soon parked his car in front of the building towards Arkham Asylum's Intensive Treatment Lobby, where the clown will be out there and hopeful for good this time.
The black-caped hero got out of his car and brought the cuffed villain with him towards the building where armed guards have their guns pointed at him, making sure nothing happens. Warden Sharp was there as well, fixing his tie and glared at the clown.
"Hey, Sharpie! Love what you've done with the place," Joker commented with his grin not leaving his face and kept moving as the hero pushed him.
"That's WARDEN Sharp to you. Boles," Sharp corrected with his eyes narrowed and had a guard named Boles sept forward to take the prisoner.
"Yo, Frank-ay. How's the wife and kids? Ya miss me?" Joker asked but was stopped when the officer grabbed him by his collar.
"Shut it, clown! A lot of people here really want to talk to you," Officer Boles snapped as he brought the clown towards his transport and had his men lock him down.
"Really? I don't mind walking," Joker commented.
The guards were not taking any chances with this clown again.
"Not so tight, boys. You'll crease the suit," Joker joked with a laugh as the office started cuffing and pushing the transport towards the cell.
"Get that filthy degenerate out of here," The Warden ordered.
However, the center hero was feeling that something was wrong here, remembering how he captures the clown so easily.
"Warden, something's not right. I'm going with him," Red Robin said, moving forward with the guards, leaving the warden with nothing to say and just go with it.
As the hero follows the guards and clown, he stops for a moment to talk to one of the offices standing by.
"Is Commissioner Gordon here yet?" Red Robin asked.
"Yes sir, he's waiting for you down at Patient Handover. He got here just before you did," The office replied.
Red Robin nodded his head in thanks and kept moving forward.
"Sharpe loves his cameras. Hey Sharpie! Are you getting my good side? But heck, they're all good, aren't they?" Joker called out, seeing the cameras eyeing him as he was being transported towards his cell.
The hero didn't mind the clown for the moment but listened to the warden speaking out loud to Boles that said, "I want him securely locked away this time. Another escape and I will lose support for my mayoral campaign."
"Don't worry, Warden. I have every available guard stationed here today, sir," Boles replied, understanding his orders.
"I hope it's enough Officer North. For your sake."
Now, this the bird-themed hero knows very well as two people have been working so hard for being Gotham's Manor as while being the White Knight, but the votes were slow, and this hero wasn't voting this year.
But moving.
Red Robin, the guards, and Joker soon were on the left and move down towards the main floors. The guards kept moving forward with their transported prisoner as the hero followed him towards the metal scanners to scan for anything. Better safe than sorry.
"It's always nice to return to my sweet little ha-ha-hacienda," Joker said with a small laugh as he was in the scanners with the guards and hero on standby.
A blue light moves pass them, scanning for anything metal or items.
"You know what? I preferred the good old cavity search. Much more personal," Joker commented as the lights soon turn red all the sudden and beeped when finding metal items.
"Got a red light. Multiple prohibited items," The office said, seeing the warning lights up.
"I want Joker searched again!" Cash ordered, not taking any chances with the clown like the other times.
"Err, it's not the patient. It's erred…," The office said, scanning the hero's items he has in his belt.
"Whatcha sneak in with you, birdy? Come on, tell me, tell me! Batarangs? Birdarangs? Bat snacks? Or maybe bird seeds?" Joker asked, getting the hero to narrowed his eyes and not answer the questions at all.
The two offices opened the doors and saw the green lights.
"I want weapons on him at all times. Do not let him out of your sight," Cash ordered as the doors open and his men aimed their rifles on the clown.
"There'll be time enough for you later, Cash. Speaking of time, tick, tock, tick, tock. It that a crocodile I hear?" Joker commented with a joke to what happened to Office Cash with a human-crocodile they have here in Arkham.
Soon enough the transport passes the scanners towards one of the open hallways towards an elevator that goes down to lower levels of the asylum. The TVs turn on to the warden's introductions which caused the clown to make fun of them with bad jokes and laughers.
In the hallways had cells of Blackgate's prisoners, being Joker's crew and started calling out for their boss but were stopped by the guards and the transport kept going.
"I'm telling you, the state if the wiring in these federal facilities is shocking. My boys over there could have been hurt in that unfortunate fire," Joker said, somewhat in a hurting matter as the transport stops for a check out for health and in front of doors to the open area of the evaluator was located.
"Just got to check your prisoner, Officer Boles," The doctor said as he walks towards the prisoner.
"Whatever, just be quick!" Boles snapped, wanting to get this done and over with it.
Red Robin wonder about the office's behavior but stay quiet and allowed the guards to do their work while he wants for anything to happen.
"Only following procedure. Patient seems to be in satisfactory condition. Looks like he suffered minor lacerations, probably in the last two hours. There seems to be…," The doctor started but stopped when…
"Boo!"
The Joker booed the doctor causing the guards to point their guns at him and laughed at this reaction. Red Robin didn't respond to this as he saw this coming and stood quietly.
"Need to take my temperature? I'd be happy to drop my pants," Joker joked with a few chuckles.
"He's all yours. Get him out of here," The doctor said, giving the all-clear for the transport to move out with their prisoner.
"He's good. Get the door open," The guards said, having the doors slid open and allowed the group to move.
As the group moved forward, the capture ratio spoked, "Alert in Intensive Treatment. Category Nine patient in transit. Pacification system active. Shoot to kill permissions granted."
Now, this was something Red Robin knows very well and want patient was coming up from the elevator.
"You heard the lady. We've got another psycho on the way," One the gourds said, having his men ready for their monster patient coming up on the left.
"Can you smell the excitement in the air? No must have been one of the guards, then. Croc old boy, is that you?" Joker asked, seeing the evaluator up and a center green scald monster coming out.
Within the evaluator has crocodile-like a man kneeling with low grows coming out and stood to step out, showing his full looks. He was a tall man, standing at 8 feet tall and had a crocodile looks. Green scales, claws on his hands and feet, and wore Arkham Asylum pants. Chains held his hands and feet in lockdown, keeping the monster down and had shock collar around his neck, set on a high level. This was Killer Croc, one of Arkham's most dangerous prisoners.
Killer Croc started to sniff something familiar to his noise that he knows very well.
"What's he doing? He seems hungry," One of the guards said, being a little scared.
"More like piss," Another guard said.
Once he found the scent, Killer Croc turns his attention towards the bird-themed hero with his eyes glaring and said, "I've got you're scent, Red Robin. I will hunt you down!"
This caused the main head guards to shout orders, "Power up the shock collar! Get that animal under control!"
The shock collar started to powerful, sending a powerful bolt of electrics into the prisoner and caused him to groan in pain as he held his neck. Killer Croc grunted in pain as the collar stops while having his glare on his target.
"A toy collar won't stop me from killing you, Red Robin. I'll rip your part! Eat your flesh and your bones!" Killer Croc shouted, promising his next kill as he moves into another elevator towards his new cell.
Red Robin had a few run-ins with most of Batman's Rogues for being a member of the Bat Family. Most were alright and some not so great to remember but moving on.
"That reminds me. I really need to get me some new shoes," Joker said as he moves his feet before the transport started moving into the elevator.
As the guards and hero load up into the elevator with the prisoner, the TV starts to play again as it goes down to lower levels of the asylum.
"Great night for a party!" Joker shouted out happy.
"Not where you're going," Red Robin said.
Joker chuckled and said, "The night is young, birdy. I still have a trick or two up my sleeve. I mean, don't you think it's a little bit funny how a fire at Blackgate caused hundreds of my crew to be moved here?
Now this made the bird-themed hero wonder even more on what the Joker was up to, but he can't see what the clown might as he was crazy, and things are never easy for him. So yeah there was that.
"I thought I told you to stay quiet!" Boles shouted, pointing his shotgun at the clown.
"Oh, Frankie! You really should learn to keep that fat mouth of yours shut. It'll get you into trouble," Joker threated, sounding like a promise he will kill the officer he steps out of line.
Before Boles could say anything, one glare from Red Robin shut up him for good, being the same glare, he learns from someone. He also wants to ask Joker something as he remembers how easy it was to capture him and something was off. From he remembers from his and Batman's run-ins with the clown, that he wasn't easy to capture, and something was going here.
"Tell me something. You've never let Batman or me catch you this easily. What are you really after?" Red Robin asked.
Joker struggled his shoulders and said, "Oh, nothing much. Hundreds dying in pain and fear. All their meaningless lives brought to a horrifying conclusion. All thanks to you and a book of matches. Was that the answer you wanted?"
Red Robin didn't reply, thinking some things over and what the clown had told him, being close to the same old punch lines and answers he was told or heard before.
"All patients should avoid contact with prisoners from Blackgate Prison Facility. Their presence in our institution is…" The TV of Warden Sharp was playing but something happens as the elevator stops all the sudden.
Joker laughs as the lights turn off and elevator shakes, causing the two guards to panic little as they brought their guns out and shoot the clown if he escapes but can't see anything.
"What's going on? Get a flashlight! Get a light on him!"
"What's he doing?"
The guards spoked but soon heard someone choking and the lights came back with the elevator moving again to show what was going on.
Red Robin had his right arm outwards with his hand choking the clown's throat, making sure he stays put and had his eyes narrowed.
"What? Don't you trust me?" Joker asked through his choking breath for the need of air and was pushed back away.
Red Robin let his grip go on Joker as he pushes the clown back into his transport and allowed the elevator to keep going.
Once the elevator stops, its shows move guards on the other side with their guns out and ready.
"Our guest has arrived," The guard said as he opens the gates and allowed the transport to walk in.
The transports moved as one of the guards walks up to the clown and said, "So you're back. You killed three of my crew when you busted out of here."
"Only three? I'll be sure to try harder next time. What say we aim for hundred?" Joker said with a laugh, causing the guard to be upset, but didn't go in as the transports move into the hallway.
Soon enough the transports reach it way towards one of the offices where a center cop was filling out some paper walks, being Jim Gordon or Commissioner Gordon of the GCPD.
"Long night, Jim?" Red Robin asked, seeing the commissioner turn around to greet him.
Jim smiled at the hero, knowing very well of the hero that was the member of the Bat Family and has helped the Dark Knight of protecting Gotham more times he could count. He reached his right arm outwards to shake the hero's hand and did before breaking it up for him to answer his question.
"Joker invades City Hall and holds the mayor hostage when Batman is with the League, leaving it to me to juggle SWAT teams, the media and you. Yeah, it's been a hell of a night," Jim answered as he and the bird themed hero walks forward.
"Hopefully the last one we'll have with him," Red Robin said.
Little did anyone knows was that someone was watching them on the cameras, but one them, being the bird hero himself closely with great interest and mix emotions running around.
Soon enough, the transports move Joker out of his place and cuffed him for his walk to his cell.
"Hold it there. Sorry, Red Robin, Arkham staff only!" The guard called out, getting the hero and commissioner to stop.
"I assure you if anyone's qualified, it's…," Jim said but was cut off by the guard.
"Listen, I appreciate the assistance, but he'll unsettle the more violent inmates," The guard said, talking about Blackgate's prisoners and some of Arkham's patients that locked up in the next open cell block.
Red Robin didn't fight back at this, understanding it very well, but still felt that something was off.
"I think he's talking about you, birdy," Joker commented with a laugh as walks pass the bird-themed hero with a guard with him towards the open cell block.
Red Robin kept his eyes narrowed at the clown, not losing his eye on him as he can feel that something was very wrong. He can feel it and knows that something was up.
"Don't be a stranger. You're always welcome here. Got to say it's good to be back!" Joker called out as Boles hands him over to the other guard and doctor for his walk to his cell.
The elector's bars light up, locking up the way to escape up and allowed the clown to his walk. The commissioner started to see something in the hero's eyes, knowing that look anyway.
"You okay?" Jim asked, getting the hero's attention.
"He surrendered almost without a fight…I don't like it," Red Robin replied, speaking his thoughts at loud as he and Jim walk forward to a glass window to see the clown's walk.
"At least he's back where he belongs," Jim said.
Before the group made it to the ramp, Joker falls on his knees all the sudden and guard ordered him to get him, but the clown headbutted him and started to choke him with his own cuffs.
"Joker's loose! Alert the Warden!" Red Robin shouted, ordering as he started to punch the glass window down, causing the spider-like web to form up with each punch he takes.
"Hurry! We're losing him, doc!" Joker called out as finished choking the guard and knees the doctor in the face, breaking his cuffs free.
The clown took a knee on the dead cop and said, "The chokes on you."
Joker started dancing little before pointing his right arm outwards, like ring a doorbell and said, "Honey, I'm home."
As if right on time, the elector cell bars open, unlocking and causing the clown ran towards the other side.
Red Robin broke the glass window and flew into the next opening room to see Joker had his arm outwards like a show was going on.
"Welcome to the madhouse, Red Robin! I set a trap, and you sprang it gloriously! Now let's get this party started!" Joker called out as he moves into the control room as the elector call bars lockdown and starts his fun.
Three prisoners from Blackgate walked out of their cells with their fits up, wanting to fight the bird-themed hero himself and a fight was going to start.
Taking the first action, Red Robin strikes at the first prisoner with two punches, one to the face and other to the gut. He was about to finish him off but soon stopped his punches to countered one punch coming behind him and back elbows him in the face, sending flying into the ground.
Red Robin punched the next guard into the wall, knocking him and jumped into the air to swing his right leg to kick into the face of another prisoner to knock him out cold. The last guard tried to jump the hero but was back fisted and knocked out before he could do anything.
"I'm just warming you up, birdy. Fresh from Blackgate Correctional Facility with a combined sentence of 752 years. Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding! It's round two!" Joker called out, having six more cells opening up and allowed his crew to fight the bird.
"Sorry birdy got to run! I've got places to go, people to slay," The bird themed hero heard from the clown as he brings out his bo staff and started the next beat down.
Red Robin swung his bo staff towards two prisoners' faces, spinning their bodies around and land in the ground. He then stabbed another prisoner in the gut three times before using his left hand to punch in the face and kick the legs, causing the prisoner to grunt in pain of a few bones broke.
The bird hero then throws his staff towards two prisoners, causing them to fall into the ground by the sudden weight of the staff for the hero to finish them. He grabs his staff and swung towards the left, hitting the faces and knocked them out.
Seeing one last prisoner, the bird hero broke his staff into two and started many swings of attacks onto the prisoner before kicking him into the ground out cold.
Red Robin puts his staff together and away as he looks back Jim for some good news, being away out of the holding cell.
"The system's jammed! We're stuck in here. Joker's in full control of the security gates," Jim said as he tries any codes to open the doors and allow the hero to go after the madman.
"I'll find a way out! Gordon, try and contact the Warden. Let him know what's happened. I'll be back," Red Robin said as he started to look around for a way out.
Before a plan could come up, the TV turns on and shows Joker going into a room. He looks at the TV on his side and said, "Don't make promises you can't keep birdy. I'm in control of the asylum. You're not going anywhere I don't want you to. Understand?"
"If you think I'll let you run…," Red Robin started with his eyes narrowed but Joker cut him off.
"Blah, blah, blah! Always with the hero speak like Bats. I'm getting bored of watching you. Why don't you just come to find me…," Joker said as the cell bars started to unlock before the hero.
Now, this had to be a trap and the bird hero knows this to be true.
"You know it's a trap?" Jim tested, making sure the hero knows what he was doing.
"Of course, it is," Red Robin answered as he walks forwards, leaving the holding cell and towards where Joker wants him to beat.
Once he was safe and no one could hear him, Red Robin placed his right hand on his ear, starting his ratio com online in his hood and call in for some help.
"Oracle, do you read?" The bird hero asked.
"Lord and clear. What's up?" A female voice spoked on another end, being Oracle or Barbara Gordon, member of the Bat Family.
"Joker's escaped custody. He's running free in Arkham," Red Robin answered as he walks forward towards a hallway.
"Do you need anything? Should we call Batman and Robin? Is my dad still there?" Barbara asked, sounding worried.
"He is safe. Batman is with the League and Robin is with his friends for the night. We'll call them if things get of hand here in Arkham. Joker's not far ahead, I'll stay in contact," Red Robin replied, easing the worried within his friend and started to move forward in the hallway.
He ended the call and walked a little faster towards the next hallway while the radio speaks out warnings and security breaches. The bird hero knows that these are going to get a little interesting within the next few levels as many Joker's crews were here in Arkham and make a little sense now but not the whole picture as too what the clown has a plan which the bird-themed hero will find out.
The next doors slid opens, being the Patient Pacification Chamber and heard a guard called to a patient.
"Think about what you're doing, Zsasz!" The guard called behind the bars and saw his friend capture by a center monster.
Red Robin knows something was wrong and needs to help. Joker could wait for a second, Zsasz needs to stop and will stop him.
The bird themed walks to guard named Zach and started to talk to him.
"Thank god! It's Zsasz. He's got my buddy, Mike. He's strapped in the chair. Zazas has totally lost it!" Zach said, being worried for his friend's sake.
"Wait here," Red Robin ordered.
"You can't! He'll kill Mike if he sees anyone trying to get close," Zach warned.
"He won't see me," The bird themed hero resumed with his eyes narrowed, having a plan in mind to take down the animal in the next room.
As Red Robin walks upstairs for his plan, he heard Zsasz said, "If I see anything that looks like even bit like a bird and this guard dies. Do you hear me!?"
Then screams followed behind, being the guard in the chair that was being tortured.
Red Robin made his way up to the plate form and talked to one the guards leaning over to the sides.
"Zsasz has got my buddy. He's gonna fry him! Do something, please!" The guard begged, wanting to save his friend.
"Keep him occupied, I need to get behind him," Red Robin ordered, getting a nod from the guard and started talking to buy time for the hero.
The bird themed hero had run-ins with this prisoner of Arkham, being Victor Zsasz. Each scar on his body is the number of victims he has killed over the years and this hero will stop from adding another one to his mark.
"Zsasz will see me coming from ground level so I will stay up high," Red Robin thought as he looks up and turns on his DV (Detective Vision), scanning something he could use.
Old stoned rafters were located around the chamber, being four and were perfect.
"Those stone rafters are very old, but they will support my weight and I will strike when Zsasz is not looking," Red Robin thought as he brought out his grabbing gun, pulling the trigger to fire his hook and pulled him upwards into the rafter.
The two guards were shock and wonder where the hero went but shook off and kept the animal busying for the strike to come at him.
Red Robin waited on the rafters for Zsasz looking away and soon glide downwards with his cape towards his target.
"Huh?" Zsasz questioned as he turns around to see something coming at him at high speed.
The bird-themed hero drop kicked the madman in the face, causing him to fall into the ground very hard. Zsasz was about to get up and push the button but was stopped when Red Robin grabs his wrist to break it into two and had his leg kicking the face. The animal groans as he was knock out cold and that gives a sense of freedom in the air for the guards.
"Someone put this animal back in his cell," Red Robin ordered as moves to a TV that was turning on for some reason.
The guards followed the order and started to free Mike before taking the animal back to his cell with a hard lock on his cell.
"Can you hear me? Is this thing on?" The person on the TV asked, being a woman as she fixes some problems.
Soon enough the screen showed another clown that the bird-themed hero knows all too well, being Harley Quinn herself.
"Oh, hiya, Bird! Harley Quinn here," Harley greeted with a wave and smile on her face, seeing the bird before her, well screen to screen wise.
Red Robin stood quiet, having some mix thoughts going and noticed that Harley was wearing something new which the mistress noticed it.
"How do you like my new uniform? Pretty hot, huh?" Harley asked as she spins around, hoping the bird loves her new looks.
"It is a lot better than your last look I saw," Red Robin said, honestly and likes the new look from her old a while ago. (1)
This caused happiness within the Mistress of Clowns that the hero loves her new look but shook her head and remembered something that she needs to show/tell the bird-themed hero.
"Oh, I got something to show you. One second, Bird…. Ta-da!" Harley said as she steps away from the screen and brings someone back tie up in tap in his own chair, the warden himself.
Red Robin narrowed his eyes, knowing that was well planned and Joker has big in mind than a simple take over. He has control over Arkham Asylum and has all the codes now since Warden Sharp was capture.
"I'm now subbing for the old man. Old Sharpie's never been happier! In case you haven't figured it out, today's the Jokers' big homecoming, and you're the guest of honor due B-man not being here," Harley said before pushing the old away from the screen and rest her hands on her new cane.
That makes sense. Ever since Red Robin started crime fighting with or without Batman, Joker has started fighting him as he does with the Dark Knight to prove a point and cause him to fall. It hasn't happened now and won't happen.
"You could surrender now, but I believed you want this keep going on," Red Robin offered, but knows that the clown very well.
"True, very true Bird. Now the inmates are running the asylum. Well, technically Joker's goons shipped from Blackgate, but you get the idea. Bye, bye for now!" Harley shouted with a wave of goodbye and smashed the camera with her cane, cutting it off.
Red Robin thought for a second and know that Harley will shut this room down, hoping to slow him down, but that won't work as he found another way out of the way from a nearby wall.
"Red Robin, you are picking this up?" Barbara asked.
Red Robin placed his right hand on his com and said, "Oracle, I'm here."
"Arkham Asylum just vanished off the network," Barbara informed, seeing the map of Arkham has disappeared before her very eyes.
"He's in control of the security system. He's probably isolated if form the grid," Red Robin said, seeing the plan of control and isolation.
"That's not all he's done. All police feeds are reporting he's placed bombs all over Gotham. Says he'll detonate them if anyone or members from the Justice League set foot on Arkham Island. It's being suppressed at the moment, but the story will break any time now," Barbara said, giving more bad news of information.
"He's lying. It's just a diversion to keep people away," Red Robin said as he walks towards an air vent for his escape of this room.
"How do you know?" Barbara asked.
"It's that easy," Red Robin simply answered, ending the com line and started his escape.
He ripped the air vent part as ease and started crawling within the vents. Oracle started patching the hero into the guard radio feed, getting some reports of Joker killing police officers and guards in Arkham, making him upset but control it and that pushes him to take down the clown himself.
Soon enough, Red Robin made his way towards air vent, using his strength with right and kicked the vent off, allowing him to leave the vents and land on the ground. He noticed that he was in the Processing Corridor and on the right path from looks.
The bird themed hero kept walking forwards, following the green arrows on the floor that leads to where he should be going and destroyed a few toys teethes that were left behind. He was getting close and was not going to fall behind.
Small Time Skip
After saving a good number of people from Joker's Gas and cleaning the room from the laughing gas, Red Robin was back on track on Joker's trail and soon found a door with a green face painted, being where he should be at.
As the doors open, Joker rested on the chained cage that leads to very heavily guard cells, but that will change and bird themed hero knows this.
"What took you so long?" Joker asked.
Red Robin grabbed a birdarang out of his belt and throws it, launching a well-aimed rang towards his target, but Joker ducked on time and hits the chains.
"There's no escape, Joker. I will find you," Red Robin said with his eyes narrowed.
"I'm counting on it. Just not yet!" Joker shouted as he put his foot door, opening the cage doors of whatever was inside, being deformed monster of the human being and had green eyes.
"Ooh! He's a big one," The clown joked as the monster roars and charged at the bird.
Red Robin knows he won't win in a fist fight with this monster but saw some things he could against the deformed creature and had a plan of an attack.
First, the monster threw a dead cop body towards the bird, but he evades the attack by moving toward the left and waited for the monster to come at him. The deformed monster roars before charging towards his target and was wide open for an attack.
Within a snap, Red Robin gets something out of his belt and throws it into the ground as he jumps towards the left to avoid the speeding monster coming at him. The deformed creature grunts in pain as the things of the floor explode smoke flashes and caused to smash head first into the wall.
What the bird-themed hero throw was caltrops with some upgrades and saw an opening to attack but stopped when he noticed that something was very wrong. The deformed monster walks out of the wall with grunts in pain and started breathing out of control, like having a heart attack. The monster moves to the center of the room with grunts in pain until his heart start all the sudden and fall backward.
"Well, that was unexpected, wasn't it? Oh well, not to self, need stronger test subjects," Joker mumbled to himself which the hero heard him and wonder.
Test subjects? This cause Red Robin to wonder more what was going on and what Joker was planning. This deformed monster reminds him of someone he once fought some time ago but he can't put his finger on it just yet and soon saw the clown walks forward all the sudden.
"Seeing as how I'm feeling generous, I'll give you this one for free. Knock me off, I dare you! End this, pull the plug, stop me once and for all!" Joker dared the hero to end his life, causing the bird-themed hero to pull out a birdarang.
Before he could, Red Robin stopped all the sudden, knowing he can't and will not end the clown's life, something he vowed and will never take the life of someone's else. He sighed to calm himself before putting his tool back into his belt, causing the clown to laugh at him.
"You're getting too predictable, birdy, just like Bats! Well, I'd love to stay and chat, but I have a party to organize. I've guest flying in from all over Arkham. You'll see," Joker said with small laughers as the cage moves backward towards another room that the hero was unsure of.
The doors closed and soon someone started to wake up from being knocked out.
"Red Robin! I'm over here!" The guard called, opening the doors and allowing the hero to walk into the room.
The bird-themed hero walked towards the room and hears what the guard needs to say.
"They came out of nowhere. I dragged Jerry in here, powered up the gate. Must have passed out," The guard explained.
"Joker went through that door. What's on the other side?" Red Robin asked as he doesn't know due to never going this far into the asylum before.
"We call it Extreme Isolation. The only way is via the transport system," The guard answered.
"Open it," The bird-themed hero ordered.
"Not a problem. I'll just need to call another cell."
The guards started to call another cell, but something was wrong as he had no control and couldn't get an answer from his computer.
"Having a little trouble up there?" The TV asked, being Joker as he turns the screen on and got the hero's attention.
"Joker," Red Robin growled.
"You were expecting maybe Two-Face?" Joker questioned.
"There's no escape, Joker," Red Robin said with his eyes narrowed.
"Silly birdy! I don't want to escape. I'm having way too much fun. I even have you here to keep a smile on my face," Joker said using his hands to form a smile on his face.
"Not for long," Red Robin said, promising on giving the clown a good beating.
"Really We'll see. Ta-ta…Oh, I forget to say," Joker said, turning the camera towards another screen, showing Jim and Boles in the room.
"Just in case you were planning on following me. I've arranged a little insurance. Gordon is on his way to Harley as we speak," Joker explained, showing Boles knocking Jim out with his police nightstick.
"Boles," Red Robin said with his voice lower and glared at the cop.
"If I see you trying to follow me, he dies. Harley is looking forward to it. Maybe I'll film it and post it on the internet," Joker said, laughing.
This changes everything and Red Robin knows it. He will save Jim first before going after Joker in the Extreme Isolation place. Maybe he could get some answers as too why Joker taking over Arkham and maybe more maps of the place out, giving a good read out.
This was going to be a long night.
1: Assault at Arkham Harley Quinn's looks.
AN: I bet a lot of questions are going into many heads. Like why is someone taking Bat's role in one of the greatest Batman video games in history and why have Naruto here again and why Red Robin? Well like I will explain all that in a few flashbacks with a central master of fear himself and why Naruto is here in DC.
Naruto (Red Robin) Information
Weapons (At the moment): Robin shuriken. Birdarang. Batarang (Batman Beyond). Grappling hook (Might have misspelled that). Bo staff which can split into twin fighting sticks. Bolas. Caltrops. Stun gun.
Powers: Healing Factor. Sensor (Read People's emotions)
Allies: Bat Family. Justice League. Young Justice. Mr. Freeze.
Enemies: Joker. Penguin. Lex Luthor. Cadmus. Killer Croc. Riddle. Clayface. Most Villains.
Now for Harem, I have some ideas but could have help on that and don't say they are hot (Won't blame you if you do). Give me a good reason on how they can work with being pair with Naruto.
Side Pairings:
Batman x Talia al Ghul
Others TBA
The Crossover of this story is Naruto, Justice League (Some New 52 elements), Young Justice, Arkham Games, and other DC elements that come into mind.
