Hotel Riddle
We see the Riddler inside his own Riddle cave with computers and video screens every where and the villain himself was watch the dark knight and the boy wonder on one of the videos screens."
"Ah Batman," Riddler said still speaking thought his microphone "I've been expecting here, but you're 15 minutes late. Are you slipping up already?"
"What are you up to Riddler?" Batman demenanded.
"Oh there's a good question," Said The Riddler with a smug voice, "That deserves a good answer. I have 15 hostages inside of this hotel, five of them are children."
"You really are crazy," Said Robin
"Gee, never had anyone tell me that before," Said The green and purple mad man, "Anyway, there is also a bomb in this very building set to go off in an hour and 15 minutes. It would have been an hour and a half but you were 15 minutes late. If you want to save the hostages, then you had better solve the riddle in order to stop the bomb from going off. So you'd better hurry."
Batman and Robin entered the hotel by using one of the keys. As they went into the hotel they see that the place was lit with green lights, and filled with smoke and mirrors. Truly a chilling sight.
"Like what I did to the place Batman?" Said The Riddler with smug glee, "If you want to deactivate the bombs, you just answer five different riddles on each on them. Oh, and I if catch you or your bird boy cheating even once, the bombs willgo off automatically. So let the games began."
"Already I'm loving this," Batman said sarcastically.
"Don't worry Bats we can handle this," Robin said
Later they came across the first bomb and it was attach to a hotel door with an African American man and his two kid daughters inside. They were scared out of their minds.
"Daddy what are we going to do!?" Said the older one.
"Don't worry sweetie we'll get out of this some how." Said the man.
Meanwhile Batman and Robin saw the bomb and the riddle it stated...
"How can you go ten days without sleep?"
"I thought he said that these were going to be hard riddles," Batman said he then tapped in the answer.
"He only sleeps at night," The bomb was now deactivated.
"Well that was an obvious one," Robin said as he opened the door, "No one besides us of course!"
The man and his little girls then saw the dynamic duo.
"Batman, Robin!" Said the man, "Thank god! I knew you two would come and save me and my girls... Jefferson Pierce the new principal of Gotham University and these are my daughters Anissa and Jennifer."
"Thank you Mr. Batman and Robin," Said the little girls.
"Don't worry about it just get moving we got other bombs to get rid of before time runs outS" Said the Boy Wonder.
"Thank you again Batman," Said Jefferson.
"Just get yourself and your kids to safety. That will be thanks enough," Said Batman.
Later Batman and Robin where solving the next Riddle bomb.
"You throw away my outside, eat my inside, then throw away the inside. What am I?"
Answer "Corn on the Cob."
The next one
"An Uber driver is going the opposite way down a one-way street. He passes five policemen along the way, none of which stops him. Why not?"
Answer "Because the Uber driver was walking."
The next one
"What has 13 hearts, but no lungs or stomach?"
Answer "A deck of cards."
One by one the hostages' were saved.
Then came the last riddle. But before they could get to it, they saw that they was five minutes left, and old Edward spoke through microphone.
"Congratulations Batty boy," Said The Riddler, "You have one riddle lift but you only have five minutes left so you better make it count."
Batman then looked at the bomb and it said "A girl buys a dozen eggs and, on the way home, all but seven break. How many eggs are left unbroken?"
"Seriously," said Robin, "It's obviously seven! Could these riddles be anymore obvious. I mean come one I was really hoping for more of a challenge."
Batman thought for a moment, these riddles were two obvious.
"50 seconds left Batman" the Riddler said over his microphone, "...40...30...20..."
"Batman," said Robin, "Hurry up and type in the answer."
But the Batman did nothing.
"...10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1!"
The countdown finished, but the bomb didn't go off.
"Why didn't the bomb go off?" asked Robin.
"There were never any real bombs," said Batman, "The riddles were far to easy for that! This was all a distraction."
"Very good Batman," the Riddler applauded over his microphone, "That's right it was all a trick."
"Where are you Riddler?" the Batman asked
"That's the funny part," said The Riddler, "I'm not even in the hotel! Riddle me this where is the Riddler?"
Batman and Robin stood there in shock now knowing where the green villain was.
Later Batman and Robin were now in the Batmobile.
"So where are we going?" Asked Robin
"Riddler's hidden riddle," Batman said, "When we arrived at the hotel he mention the number 15 three times."
"So it's like math or something, all adding up 45?" Robin asked
"No," Batman said, "It's the Riddler we are talking about here he would not give us an obvious riddle...It's and address 1515 on 15th street."
As he said this they pulled up to the place in question, it was a old apartment building.
"Why would Edward care about this dump?" Said Robin
"Because there's someone who lives and hides here that he still has an axe to grand with to this day," Batman said.
They walked up into the apartment and found the room marked 1515.
Wen they opened the door they saw a familiar face. It was a man with an aftershave and a messy hair, he was also wearing a warned out suit. As he saw our heroes he fell into a panic.
"AH! Who are you?" Said the man, "Wait...Batman why are you here?"
"Daniel Mockridge," Batman said, "It's been a while."
"Okay wait who is this guy?" Robin asked confused.
"He was a business man that worked on computer games," Batman replied, "Riddler used to work for him, until he fired him and took credit for everything Edward did."
"YES!" Said the terrified Mockridge, "And after I fired him he became a crazed loonatic and tried to kill me! Ever since then I've spent almost all my money hiding from him!"
"Well I hate to break to ya..." Said Robin, "But he already knows where you are. That why where here... Which really doesn't make any..."
"Let's get out of here NOW!" Batman shouted.
But as he said that, a small green and purple helicopter floated outside of the building. It had a large a question mark on it, as well as a small camera along with some small missiles. The missiles were shot at the building with Batman, Robin, and Mockridge in it.
"BOOM!"
Meanwhile back at the Riddler's lair the green villain laughed in victory.
"Riddle me this!" He shouted, "Who just rid himself of his most hated people in the world?! ME!"
But then as he was celebrating, he looked at his screen and saw that Batman, Robin, and even Mockridge were safe and sound out side of the apartment. (Thankfulu there was no one else in the place.) The three were hanging from a pair of grappling hooks.
"Okay that's it!" Said Mockridge "I'm moving to Metropolis!"
"NO! NO! NO!" Shouted The Riddler, "They should have called him Roach Man! Because he's just as hard to get rid of!"
Batman then turn to look at the camera, a smug face look on his face, "Better luck next time."
