Gotham Season 5 (Alternate version)
Chapter 23
Gotham city (Day 93)
Gotham city Morgue
Jim Gordon woke up and realized he is tied to a chair. As Jim looked at his surroundings, he saw Hugo Strange on the other side of the room operating on Edward Nygma's brain.
"It's about time you woke up partner." Eduardo said
Jim turned his head and saw Eduardo approaching him.
"Eduardo what is the meaning of this?" Jim asked
"Come on now Jim you're a smart guy I'm sure you can figure it out." Eduardo said
It was in that moment that all of the pieces of the puzzle came together and it all now made sense to Jim.
"It was you wasn't it, you used Nygma to do your dirty work by having him blow up Haven." Jim said
"Technically I remotely controlled him with the chip in his brain, but basically yeah." Eduardo said
"You son of a b%#ch there were innocent people at Haven, and you killed them all." Jim yelled in anger.
"Innocent is a strong word to throw around Gotham Jim. This city is a cesspool filled with corruption and chaos. The way I see it is that the only to fix it is to eliminate the source of it." Eduardo said
"Killing every citizen in Gotham is not the answer." Jim said
"Look Jim I don't want us to be enemies, my boss Theresa Walker originally ordered me to kill, but since we've been friends for a long time, I'm going to make you an offer. Join me or die along with your pathetic police officers." Eduardo explained
"Never." Jim said
"Very well then." Eduardo said
Eduardo punched Jim in the face, because he was mad that his partner rejected his offer.
"You're going to die Jim, but not yet. I want to savor every moment of it. First, I'll make you watch as we tear apart Gotham. After that me and my men will break every bone in your body. When our mission is complete and Gotham is ashes then you have my permission to die." Eduardo explained
Jim said nothing as he stared at Eduardo with a look of anger on his face.
The GCPD
Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle met up with Alfred Pennyworth and Lucius Fox in the locker room.
"There's something not right about these soldiers Alfred. Me and Selina have noticed that most of them have been spying on us like we're suspects." Bruce said
"They don't even seem to care about any of the civilians or police officers here." Selina said
"Alfred and I have noticed their bizarre behavior as well. Earlier I asked one of the men in charge if they knew when the supply shipment was going to be here. The whole time he completely dismissed it and acted like it wasn't important." Lucius said
"If these men aren't here to help us then what is their reason for even being here in the first place." Alfred asked
"Bruce and I think it might have something to do with their leader." Selina said
"We need to find Jim and warn him before it's too late." Bruce said
Gotham city Morgue
Eduardo had the room a few minutes ago to get an update from his men at the GCPD. Hugo Strange was patching up Nygma's head since he finished fixing the chip in his brain and was now sewing the top of his head back together. Jim needed to find a way to get of here before Eduardo came back. Suddenly he saw a little surgical knife placed on a desk right next to him. Jim also saw his gun and cell phone there as well. Jim used his strength to hobble the chair over to the desk and reach for the knife. Luckily Strange did not noticed, because he was too distracted with what he was doing. Jim grabbed the knife with his hand and used the knife to carefully cut the rope. After a few minutes of cutting he manage to break free from the rope and get up from the chair. Strange noticed this as he just finished sewing Ed's head back on.
"Oh dear." Hugo said
Jim grabbed his gun that Eduardo took off of him earlier along with his cell phone and quickly runs down a chute that leads him outside in the night of Gotham city. Eduardo immediately enters the room and sees that Jim escaped.
"What the hell happened, how did he get away?" Eduardo demanded
"He must of broke free from the ropes." Hugo said
"Dammit." Eduardo said
In that moment Eduardo pulled out the remote control and activated Nygma's chip. Nygma stood up from the chair he was sitting in and waited for Eduardo's orders.
"You know Jim Gordon, you know this city. Find him and kill him." Eduardo said as he gave Nygma a gun.
"Yes sir." Nygma said
Nygma then went down the same chute Jim went through and was outside ready to hunt him down.
The GCPD
Bruce, Selina, Lucius, and Alfred were leaving the locker room when suddenly one of the soldiers sees them.
"Hold it right there." The male soldier said
The soldier approaches the gang and questions them.
"You're not supposed to be down here, what we're doing in the locker room?" The male soldier asked
Alfred tries to handle the situation by telling him some made up excuse.
"Well you see mate I was looking for my eye contacts, because I think I might have mis-placed it. So, I asked my friends to help me find it." Alfred explained
Alfred could tell that the soldier was buying his made up story and knew that this wasn't going to end well.
"You're all coming with me for interrogation." The male soldier said
In that same moment Selina quickly attacked the soldier. She kicked him to the ground and punched the guy in the face instantly knocking him out.
Lucius and Alfred flinched a little when Selina randomly took down the soldier, but not Bruce. He knew from the moment that the soldier approached them that they were going to have to knock him out.
"Let's go." Selina said
The rest of the gang nod and they all head out to find Jim.
