A bad Day
Earth-0,Gotham:
The streets are filled with chaos, fire, and people killing one another, and in the highest tower of Gotham it's Batman holding another man a crazy batman( i'll b e calling the batman who laughs as TBWL so i don't have to write the whole thing), TBWL looks at Batman with a smile on his face.
"YOU'RE FINALLY GOING TO DO IT?" TBWL asked.
"NO!, i won't kill you!" Batman said.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAH….. YOU TRULY HAVEN'T LEARNED ANYTHING DURING OUR LITTLE SHOW, BREAK OFF YOUR CHAINS, YOU KNOW AS WELL AS I THAT THERE'S ONLY ONE TRUE RULE TO FOLLOW:" BATMAN ALWAYS WINS" HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHPfff" TBWL said but got cut off by a punch by Batman and continued saying:
"THIS GAME WILL NEVER END!, THE ONLY WAY TO GET RID OF ME IS TO KILL ME OR TO SEND BACK TO MY DARK LITTLE CORNER OF A UNIVERSE, BUT IN DOING SO THE OTHER ONES WILL COME TO SAY HELLO HHEHHEHEHE" TBWL says but gets hit again by Batman and then Batman says:
"I won't become you, you're just a bad dream, no more no less" and activating something on his belt keeps saying " and yeah i won't kill you, and I can't send you home, BUT! i will make sure you can't finish Babados's Plan" he then continues to punch TBWL and then says " That's why i'll send you to the deepest part of the multiverse so…(his voice starts to change) you won't keep making BAD JOKES" he then stumbles back holding something back and BTWL starts laughing:
" HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH, YOU'VE DONE IT, YOU'VE SMELLED THE JOKERS OLD HEART FART HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA, COME ON GIVE IN! DO IT!" and from behind him a device created by Batman comes to the roof and activates, Batman immediately pushes TBWL to the machine and then disappears, Batman drops to the ground resting for a second and gets back up to deal with what's going on in Gotham.
Earth-?, Grasslands:
He fell on the ground, with an ear to ear smile on his face, he knew what would happen back in the bats cave, he no longer needs to go back, checking his equipment he hears birds, insects and feels the grass beneath him, for a moment his smile disappears and turns into calm expression, taking in the sounds and feelings of his environments and stands up looking around hearing the sounds of people, he keeps walking through the forest and sees a small village with what seems to be some kind of celebration, as he sees this his smile comes back and says "This, is going to be FUN!".
A week pases…
Inside a moving carriage a young man is sleeping surrounded by boxes and many items and food with another person watching him while checking his equipment and then heads to the front and says:
"Hey Alari how much until we get to the village" and then a girl with brown hair and blue eyes and what seems like recon armor and a bow says:
"A few minutes until we arrive Boss, by the way Birger says that you should stop sitting your ass inside the carriage and come out, i can keep an eye on the kid for a while"He then laughs and the girls laughs a bit too and he then starts to leave the carriage and then sees a man with armor and a double sided axe walking on the side of the carriage talking to another man but in robes and a staff:
"Birger, i've told you to stop talking carelessly, we can be attacked by goblins and you will still be talking about you and your food recipes!" said the Boss.
"Sorry Boss, but i had to ask do you hear that?" they then stopped talking and heard…. nothing, "What are talking about?, i can't hear anything" said the boss, "Exactly, there's usually some noise coming from the village but i can't hear anything now" as Birger stopped talking the Boss got nervous, he knew that wasn't a good sign " Alari, Stop here, i'll wake up the kid you go around the village and check if there's people but if something seems odd come back immediately" said the boss.
"Understood" said Alari.
She then stopped the carriage and instantly starts moving towards the village stealthily and the Boss wakes up the kid.
"Hey kid, kid, SAM!" the kid wakes up in a rush scared and relaxes seeing the Boss and then says:
"S-s-sorry for falling asleep", "Don't mention it kid but something isn't right around here, so get ready to run if necessary and we will protect you if things get really bad" said the Boss.
"B-but what happened?" said Sam.
"The town is awfully quiet we're just waiting for Alari to come back with the state of the village" said the Boss.
"That is quite weird for them to not do that much noise but there are sometimes they don't make that much noise because something important is happening" said Sam.
Then Alari showed up out of nowhere and scared Sam and then turned to the Boss and said "I couldn't see anyone outside the town, no visible signs of hostility in the village and no signs of any demihumans around the village"
"Hmm… what do you say kid?" said the boss.
"Well.. i would say we should go in since you said that there weren't any signs danger" said Sam.
"Ok, tell Birger to get ready in case something bad happens and tell Erlen to use spells to if need be" said the boss.
As they began to enter the town they noticed that no one was around or that no one wanted to go outside and as Sam and the Boss got off the Carriage Birger said "No one is here, the houses are all empty and no signs of fights inside or anything at all, it's almost as if they all left and leave everything they had behind".
"Maybe they are at the village Heads home, he usually has room so he can meet with people to take ideas" said Sam.
"Look there's someone inside the Village Heads home!" they all turn to it and see a silhouette of person inside the home.
"Hey mister! come out already! we mean you no harm!" said Alari.
In response they heard a voice that was very elegant and serious that seemed to calm the heart.
"Sorry i can't, the village's head is having an important talk with everyone else" said the man's voice."Come on in here the Village's head wants to talk with you"
"Okay!" said Sam quickly going in but gets grabbed by the arm by the boss, they exchange looks and Sam gets what he means and goes to the back of the group and then they go into the house.
As they go in the door behind them gets shut immediately and then they hear the same voice of the man but now it's voice sends chills down everyone's spines "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! it seems that we got a new group of players in our new game of musical faces!" as he says this they see the corpses of the villagers but with smiling flesh masks as he keeps saying "As you can all see we have been playing for a while now and we have ran out of players, so we are all grateful for your participation!"
"YOU SICK FUCK!" screamed Alari looking around for the man, "WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU YOU FUCKER!" she screamed again.
"HEHEHEHEHEHE, don't worry little girl i'm right hereeeeee!" as he reveals himself they see a man in dark robes clouding his eyes and a wide smile on his face surrounded by people with smiles carved in their faces, but their mouths being covered by pieces of cloth preventing them from screaming but it couldn't hide their tears and frightful expressions.
As he shows up the boss immediately rushes towards him sword in hand and slashed at the man killing him instantly dropping him to the ground.
"Got that son of a bitch" said the boss."Let's help these people" said Alari going near the people who were tied up near the corpse of the crazy man but even after the man died they were still scared, she thought "maybe they're still scared of what he did to them and the other villagers" as she starts to undo the cloth in their mouth they scream and panic trying to tell them something, she tells them "don't worry we'll free you from this hell, Erlen! can you use healing magic on them?", "Yeah i can use it on a few on them but i'll leave me very tired and i won't be able to cast more magic" said Erlen while checking around for other people who might had survived this inhuman torture and starts healing them.
Alari finally manages to take off the cloth on the mouth of one of the victims but struggles a bit almost as if it were tied to their tongue, and the moment she finally rips it out she realizes what the crazy man had done, he had put a small makeshift bomb in their mouths and tied up with the cloth.
It immediately exploded and stunned everyone in the building and caused the others bombs to explode and damaged the building even more and caused it to be very fragile and crumble, Sam being at the back of everything didn't get hurt by the bombs but he did get temporally confused by it, the boss and the others got heavily injured by the bombs and can barely move.
Sam goes up to Birger who was the closest to him and tries to pull him out of the ruble but got stopped by a pale hand on his shoulder and then a dog collar is suddenly put on his neck and gets pulled back from Birger and looks over to see… a man, no...a demon, no man could create this much suffering and enjoy it like this monster did and laugh at that sight, he wore dark leather and a spiked helmet that hid his eyes, the man gets close to Sam and whispers to his ears "Let's go out for a walk shall we" and starts to drag him outside"HOW ARE YOU STILL ALIVE!" Sam screams at the top of his lungs, the monster turns to him laughing "HAHAHAHAHA you truly thought that was ME!, he was nothing more than a knock off store substitute that was only good for dying"he then stops after exiting the building and turns to Sam and says "OH! I forgot to tell you, we are staying here tonight and we'll need a campfire, so let's start a fire shall we?" grabbing a nearby piece of wood and a tool from his person he uses it to start burning the piece of wood, he then gets near the collapsed building, Sam grabbing his chain trying to pull him away from the building screaming "YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS!" and then his hopes start to rise as Alari starts get out of the rubble but they start to crash down as the monster gets close to her and says "OH look at what we have here, a very pretty girl".
"f-fuc-ck y-y-y-ou" says Alari.
"Oh come on you don't have to be so sad, here catch" he throws her the burning piece of wood and starts to burn her hair, as she screams in agony he turns to Sam and sees his traumatized face and asks "Is this not enough?" he then grabs another of his tools and starts burning the rest of her body with the house while laughing at the screams of those who were still alive, Sam is covering his ears desperately trying not to hear the screams of his friends, the monster then turns to him and says "Is that good enough?", Sam yelled at him "WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS? ARE A DEMON?".
The monster gets close to him almost like an owner would to his dog, and grabs his cheeks and pulls and says laughing" No, no, no you're getting everything wrong, i'm just doing this because it was FUN!".
How was that possible was what Sam thought, demons, undead, demihumans and even crazy people would do this kind of inhumane acts for a goal, like killing to summon demons, undead, or just as food to torture those staring at it, or terrorism but... for FUN?
The monsters continues talking to him" You can call me"the man who laughs" and i've got for you a one time offer, come with and be my partner in crime, be my robin and we can go around seeding chaos and showing everyone that we are the sane ones".
"SHUT UP YOU DEMON!, I WILL NEVER JOIN A MONSTER LIKE YOU!
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, you're truly special aren't you" he then knocks him out and starts dragging him down and says while dragging him "OHHHH trust me, you will soon understand what i mean... after all you need is ONE BAD DAY! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!".
