Taking Flight

Chapter 7- The Chill

Gotham City

Two Face was down. 3 More gang bosses to take down, but they would all be a lot more difficult. Firstly, they would have been more difficult anyway, and know they would be aware, and almost everyone would now be searching for him, just to gain a free passage out of this hellhole. And there was Deadshot. Everyone in Gotham would be looking for a way out. He would have to be careful. Even though his little escapade was necessary, it was stupid, and reckless, but needed.

He knew that everyone in America would have seen it in an hour, most of the rest of the world by the end of the week. He wondered how Bruce would take it. How Zatanna would take it, how the league and team would take it. But he couldn't. Not now. He had to concentrate. He had to attack while the wounds were still fresh. He could attack Penguin by the end of the week.

He had crept through the ventilation system of the Museum, and was nearing the Iceberg Lounge. He knew that Penguin would keep himself there. He always did. Suddenly, a bunch of guards burst in, and said that they had found one of the guards knocked out. Damn it, they know I'm here now. He saw the guards step out, and start scanning the area, as one of them went to check the vent he was hidden in, he quickly flung his foot out and his foot found the thug in the face. He quickly threw out 10 smoke bombs out around the room, leaving just a haze of smoke. He saw men up of the different platforms, and sent out explosive shurikens, and saw them land in the platforms, sending guards all flying down to the bottom floor. He then threw out multiple shurikens that had his laugh recorded on it. Suddenly, all they could hear was his laughter resonating from out all over their room.

He threw out even more shurikens, this time normal ones, and disabled all the guns in the room. He jumped up, and let out some quick punches, and high kicks, and after a few minutes, had taken out many of the guards, when the smoke finally cleared, and almost every eye in the room, had turned around and charged at him. He quickly dodged multiple strikes, and after being pushed back, he jumped into attack, letting out fierce punches, high and low kicks, flipping the upside down with his feet, and finally, only 2 guards, and Penguin himself. Both guards lunged at him, one going for a low punch, one going high, he quickly slid under the first thugs legs, and jumped up, holding the thugs head, and landing his shins on the other thugs shoulders. He locked his feet and arms, and then suddenly pushed up, slamming the thugs head first into each other, and jumped down, with one leg outstretched and other bent, with one hand on the floor. He looked over, and saw that Copplebot had started to run. He simply jumped over him, and delivered a swift kick to the crime lords face.

He set up some rope, and tied the criminal up. He quickly hoisted him onto the grapple hook. They set off across the roof, and in a hour, the Penguin had been dropped off back at Arkham. Luckily, the guards wouldn't attack him. They knew he could save them. Now only the Black Mask and Riddler were left. Only 2 more men to take down to save Gotham.

He found himself back in his base, looking over the progress of the cure. Last night, his computer had finally got what was in the fear gas, and was now attempting to find a way to neutralise the threat. The other project he was working on was under good progress, and everything was coming along. He had also had multiple hits on the Riddler, who had been popping up everywhere. Suddenly, a new alert came up, a new hit about Riddler, and Dick suddenly saw a pattern. If he changed out every other Riddler incident, with a Bird's Eye View, it gave a very disturbing message. "Where the good Doctors fell, and where a legend rose, a chill set across the ground, as marbles fell." Dick immediately figured it out. The Doctors, Thomas and Martha Wayne. Chill, Joe Chill was their murderer, and Bruce had told him how he saw his Mother's marble necklace break across the ground. And the Legend was clearly Batman. He knew where to go. Crime Alley.

He ended up on the theatres roof. Looking down, he saw the sewer cover had been covered with a green Question Mark. He quickly scanned the area, and sure that no one else was there. He was sure, so he jumped down, and as he pulled up the cover up, he slid under the cover, and landed in the sewers. He switched on the thermal scanners in his domino mask, and saw there was a large concentration of people a while onwards. As he turned towards the door, his scanner suddenly went haywire, so he turned it off, and he was plunged into extreme darkness.

"How do you lure a creature in the dark? Give him some LIGHT!" Suddenly, fires lit up all around the room, and Riddler and dozens of thugs were surrounding him. He saw all of them pull down Night Vision Goggles, and suddenly knew why his Thermal Vision had been knocked out. He was going to be attacked, from all sides, in complete darkness. Suddenly, Riddler tapped his staff on the floor, and started speaking

"Now, Lights out little bird. No lights this time"

Then The Lights went out.
