Ah, dinner. The food looks unappetizing to say the least, but it's all we get in this dank, sunless hole so I might as well eat it. Wait, this food tastes odd… I mean, odder than usual. Hmm… chemicals, definitely. I know I haven't done anything deserving of a sedative, and if I had it would be administered through a needle…
Aha, so this is Crane's
strategy. He puts the fear chemicals in our food. Bolton must be the
one seeding the food.
Gah, vertigo… Room's spinning… Must be
his damn fear chemicals.
The fern on the bed is moving… and becoming a long vine with thorns. Crap.
It's not real, it's not real… it's coming towards me. Damnit! Why won't it listen- It's not real! Not real…
"Let go!" It's
got me, oh God…
Thorns cutting into my skin! Choking me and
piercing my throat at the same time… It's… not real…
Scarecrow's
POV
If Bolton's followed my orders the show should begin
soon. Dinnertime, and I hope Ivy's meal has been properly altered.
She seems uneasy. Could
she have caught on to the plan?
Ah, there it is- the gleam of fear
in her eyes. I've never seen Ivy afraid. It's lovely. She's
looking towards that fern she's been allowed to keep… Shrinking
back from it, terrified. Yes! So it does work on her, even
with her hyper immune system. Oh, this is wonderful news indeed. Her
shrieking and flailing is quite satisfying.
Never hit a god, Miss
Isely…
Lock-Up's POV
Pamela Isely has been
affected by Crane's chemicals as well. This is interesting; I
thought her toxin resistance would have cancelled the reaction. Oh
well, at least she suffers.
And dear Harleen Quinzel is still in the hospital wing. A fantastic punishment indeed.
Who is next on the victim list? As much as I love punishing these criminals, I am forced to work with Jonathan Crane to accomplish it.
How shall I make Crane pay? It must be brilliant and perfect. How to bring down the Master of Fear from his egotistical throne…
His own chemicals wouldn't work; he's built up a substantial immunity to them after several inhalations of his own fear gas. How to punish the Scarecrow… A most puzzling conundrum indeed…
((A/N: Lock-Up is flippin' scary, people. o.O Just writing him freaked me out. Let's see…. How about cans of soda for reviewers? I bet we all need the caffeine! XD))
