Arkham bay
Underneath the water of Gotham bay. A body started to swim to the top. This body who was clearly male was 6 feet tall. Blood covered his face to where physical details were not able to distinguish. He's right leg appeared to be broken from the angle it was in. the figure grabbed a crate label titian with its hand. That look like a Freddy Kruger claw. In the claw was a glowing yellow liquid. The figure started to swim away with the crate. Towards the mainland away from where this figure injuries occurred. Arkham asylum the figured wearing a mask that keep what damage had happened to his face together. This figure was no other than the infamous former psychiatrist Dr. Johnathan crane aka scarecrow. Scarecrow had some how escape an attack by another villain killer croc. Scarecrow couldn't believe what had happen. He had batman about to bath Gotham in fear with his toxin. When that animal killer croc attacked him and almost ate him. Batman did nothing to save him and for the first time in a long-time scarecrow felt fear. and while it was euphoric. He had much more to do to the citizen of Gotham.
{I can not let this be my end.} thought scarecrow as he swam as best, he could to the mainland despite losing so much blood.
Scarecrow finally made it to the mainland. He crawled and try as best he could to stay awake. Cause he knew if he passed out or fell asleep, he was going to die. As he got further away from the water scarecrow herd footstep and looked up to see men in military outfits heading his way.
{no, my destruction of batman for sacrificing me to the croc. Will not go unpunished I will break him and this city. How weak they are compared to the power of fear how they can't ignore it anymore. How it will destroy them for not using it. Arkham is not my next stop. I will not go back to suffer. That is for the batman.} thought scarecrow as he passed out from the pain.
The military which scarecrow thought would take him back to Arkham. Didn't have any type of military garb on them. They are part of a secret group know as prodigium. After hearing about titian and what it could do the nearest group was sent to Gotham to try and retrieve some during the chaos. They came up on the titian crate and scarecrow. The leader of this group took out his communication device to talk to the leader of prodigium.
"commander come in. this is alpha 1 reporting in." said alpha 1
"I read you. Alpha 1. What is the progresses on the mission?" asked the leader of prodigium
"sir we've found one of the crates of titian. But there's something else sir." Said alpha 1 as alpha squadron surrounded the titian crate and scarecrow.
"oh, and what this other thing alpha 1?" asked the leader
The men turned scarecrow over to see who it was. Once they realized who it was. They all pointed their guns at him.
"sir it's the villain know as scarecrow. Though he looks to be almost dead. I can't confirm if he saw us or not. What should we do sir?" asked alpha 1 as he had one of his men check for a pulse and they nodded his head to confirm
"hmm. How interesting. Take him with you. I would like to talk with dr. crane. Though I wish it was the croc to confirm our suspicion of him." Said the leader alpha 1 nodded to this then signaled his men to grab the crate and scarecrow
"understood sir. I suggest having a medical team with multiply surgeons on standby he doesn't look to good. The fact he's still alive say something about his will power sir." Said alpha 1
"very well I will see you at home base. Over and out." said the leader
The men then did a field medic treatment to stop the bleeding so the scarecrow can make it to headquarters. The loaded the crate of titian and scarecrow onto the plane they had brought. A stealth plane to avoid detection and with the batman busy with what happened on Arkham island. Now with two face they hoped he wouldn't be able to detect them. Alpha squad begin the journey back to prodigium headquarters.
Prodigium headquarters several days later
Scarecrow awoke in immense pain. His face was covered in bandages. He couldn't see out of his left eye. His right leg was in a cast. He checks his surrounding and saw that from the interior he defiantly wasn't in Arkham infirmary or Gotham general hospital. The room was too well equipped to be Arkham and was too clean and neat to be the hospital. He lifted his hands to try and feel his face since he couldn't see a mirror. From the damage he could feel through the bandage. He still had his left eye through was blind. He felt his teeth but no lips so croc must have taken them. The rest he couldn't tell without taking off the bandage. A knocked happen at the door to his room. A man enters his room. He had brown hair stood about six feet tall. He was well built like he could be a gentle gorilla or a dangerous strong man. scarecrow had learnt this with dealing with the other residents of Arkham.
"ah I see you are finally awake. Dr. Crane." Said the man walking to the front of Johnathan's bed
Johnathan didn't answer immediately as he was suspicious. The man nodded and a look of understanding cross his face.
"I understand that you would be suspicious of us. As I know the name and have the deadly scarecrow in our position. Ah I also realize I haven't giving my name either my apologies. My name is dr. henry Jekyll." Said dr. Jekyll
Johnathan looked at dr. Jekyll before starting to laugh "hahahaha." Said dr. crane before he started to cough and grab at his throat.
"oh dr. crane while I maybe a little offended at you're laughter. You need to take it easy. Your vocal cords were damaged. Along with the other injuries you sustained." Said dr. Jekyll as he said this dr. crane nodded holding his throat.
"apologize dr. Jekyll your kind of an urban legend now. In the medical profession. Don't become too opposite with your work. Otherwise you will end up like dr. Jekyll. With your research and lab in ruins and your body killed by the very thing you are researching. Through I may be joining you in that tale now." Said dr. crane even through he was talking like normal. It came out like a whisper.
Dr. Jekyll nodded his head with a smile on his face like a joke had been told. "well I did always want to leave an impact on the science and medical community. I guess I did reach that goal well." Said dr. Jekyll
"yes, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance. Through may I inquire where I am. I can tell this isn't anything in Gotham. So, dr. Jekyll where am I and why I'm here?" asked dr. crane
"quite so. You are in London. In prodigium headquarters. We are the first line of defense against all things supernatural. We make sure that creature you would describe as cryptid. Everything evil that people like the 'heroes' of this world are too busy or kind to take care of. We protect the world from that evil. As for why you are here. We went to retrieve a sample of this titian the joker had created. A way to even the odds should we ever need it. You were there beside the crate and we are not ready for the justice league or any like them to know about our existing." Said dr. Jekyll as dr. crane shook his head.
"so, I was just lucky to happen upon then?" asked dr. crane
"while yes that is true. You also offer us something we didn't think of before. A way to continue your research and help us out with our project and job." Said dr. Jekyll as dr. crane title his head in wondering.
"oh, how so? Asked dr. crane causing dr. Jekyll smile
"well you're research into the fear of other. We can give you these cryptids to study. We don't know much about the evil we fight, but if we can figure out what they fear. we can use this to capture them and even kill them more affectedly. And you dr. crane you would be able to learn new types of fear that would add more to your research." Said dr. Jekyll dr. crane thought of what was offered to him a chance to do his research on new subjects with no interruption. Then also steady supply of patients to test out the toxin.
"very well dr. Jekyll you have an agreement. And since we will be working together please call me Johnathan as we will be equals." Said Johnathan causing dr. Jekyll to smile.
"very well Johnathan. You may call me henry. Oh, but on to other matter we did not know what you looked like. So, we could have plastic surgery begin without you being conscious and aware of what was happening. So, if you would like to describe it or even draw or have a picture so we can begin on it Johnathan." Said henry as Johnathan began to think
"well henry if it's no problem I believe that if my patients are to be monsters. Then it only makes sense that the doctor should look monstrous too. That the scarecrow shouldn't have to be a mask. Croc made the scarecrow permanent." Said Johnathan
Henry put a sad slashed thinking position. Weighing the options. On one hand it would be an interesting dynamic to see how the cryptids would react. On the other it hard to hide the scarecrow from public eye if he looked like that the whole time. Through they been able to hide from those 'heroes'. Holding one of the top villains of one of them and helping him with his research would cause problems. Through the rewards far out way the risk after all if they can contain henry other side. Mr. Hyde. Then they can defiantly contain the scarecrow.
"it will be no problem Johnathan I will bring in the surgeon and a sketch artist to help you get the look you want. Then we shall begin your physical therapy. We don't want you to be too weak when you have your first patent." Said henry as Johnathan smiled
"of course, and it would be very hard for my patent to understand me if I talk like this." said Johnathan
Henry nodded his head and went to go get both. Henry couldn't believe how this week had gone. First to hear that joker had taken over Arkham island. Then invented or improvise a serum that could create monster almost like his formal that he made to take care of Hyde. He needs to see if someone had stolen his research and try to make it his own. One Hyde was good enough for this world both him and his other personality could agree for different reasons. Then he was able to get probably the smartest of that 'hero' batman villain. The scarecrow he had heard how he had become like henry in a way. Obsessed with his research. Wanting to expand on the fear one thing that everyone has. Something that even the creature they hunt have. Now with Johnathan he can have intelligent conversation. Along with the studies that both of them could accomplish.
{plus, the fun scarecrow could have with his new great friend. Edward Hyde.} thought henry before realizing he need to take more of his serum. Henry headed straight for his office
While this was going on Johnathan thought of the circumstance that brought him here. He would have to thank that infernal killer croc. If not for the injuries he had substance he would never be given the chance to expand his research. Through once he was finished here. He would break the legend that the batman has over that pathetic city of Gotham. He's a man who sacrificed him to croc. Jus to feed his ego. Batman is just that a man and no matter what the rest of the resident of Arkham thought. The batman legend will be broken. And fear will destroy Gotham as he shows it what will fear can do and will do if you ignore it. As it's apart of there life and will be the main part of it for the rest of their pathetic citizen. Johnathan closed his eyes figuring it maybe awhile before the surgeon and sketch artist. Unaware of the figure watching him. The Egyptian goddess of fear Sekhmet
(soon my champion you will fill your destiny Adom.) Said Sekhmet before fading away
Well I hope you enjoy this chapter. And please review tell me what you think. I promise not to take as long to update.
