Chapter 9: Plan B


"Watch the screen" Riddler said and a screen came on showing different images of Gotham City "I've placed several bombs right in the heart of Gotham City" then an explosion filled the whole room people began screaming and running

"No" Alex yelled he looked Riddler's smiling face then a message was in the sky

People of Gotham, Riddle me this, Riddle me that: What is the name of a creature that can control all four elements, Air, Water, Earth and Fire?

"Monster" Ahsoka snarled then another explosion sounded and more and more and more, the group watched in horror as Gotham City was blown to smithereens

"Isn't it just beautiful" Riddler chuckled "all those people running and screaming"

"My god" Alex gasped "you're killing everyone in Gotham"

"Yes, Avatar" Riddler chuckled "that is what will happen if you don't solve our final problem quickly"

"I'll never do that" Alex snarled

"Well then" Riddler chuckled "your own choice" and Alex watched in horror as bombs continued to destroy Gotham itself


"Now Bats" Joker started to say but he was cut off by an explosion "what?" he said angrily "who's exploding Gotham?"

"Riddler" Batman said

"Ah" Joker laughed "he's putting his plan B into place, I told him plan A would never work after all B was my idea"

"You sick twisted monster" Batman snarled "people are being killed"

"I know" Joker laughed "but on the other hand" he kicked Batman's chair out of the window "find a cure Bats!" he called from the window "I'll be in touch!"

Batman contacted Alfred

"Alfred"

"Yes sir" Alfred's voice answered

"Joker's poisoned me, and Riddler's destroying Gotham as we speak"

"I've been monitoring the destruction on the Bat-Computer" Alfred explained "Robin's trying to evacuate as many people as possible, more to the point our Jedi friends have gone missing as well"

"That doesn't sound good" Batman said "I need to find them"

"Yes you do" Alfred said "but they can manage on their own, in the meanwhile you need to find a cure"

"But Alfred" Batman said "Gotham is being destroyed"

"The Jedi will stop that" Alfred said "I know because the Avatar is with them"

"You're right" Batman sighed "I'd best go find a cure maybe Mr. Freeze can help"


"Alex" Ahsoka said as Alex stared silently at the screen watching the destruction of Gotham "come on I know you, there's always a plan with you"

"No" Alex sighed "not this time" and for once he looked as hopeless as ever

"But there must be something" Ahsoka stammered "I mean we can't"

"Ahsoka" Alex said sadly "there is no plan"

"No" Ahsoka said crying "I've always believed in you"

"That's the problem!" Alex snapped he looked at the ground "this is all my fault, everything"

"What?" Anakin said "it can't be"

"It is master" Alex snapped "I can't stop Riddler" then he closed his eyes "there is no hope"

"There's always hope!" Ahsoka said sobbing "there's always hope" Alex didn't answer "master?" he was asleep in the Spirit World, Riddler had left and Alex had entered the Spirit World to ask for advice from previous Avatars
