Chapter 4: Can Batman Save Robin
Batman came on the stage."Where's Robin!?" He demanded.
Pinocchio batted his eyes at him as if he was innocent."I don't know that wasn't how the trick was supposed to go."he began," he was supposed to be reassembled in one piece not disappear."
Batman narrowed his eyes at him."don't lie to me."
"Oh no,"Pinocchio said shaking his head."me lie if I was lying my nose would be growing and as you can
see" he put his finger on the tip of his nose." It's a perfectly normal size." Then Pinocchio giggled.
"Some people are better off not knowing everything." Pinocchio said, raising his eyebrows at Batman indicating that he knew where Robin was but wasn't telling.
Batman made a step towards Pinocchio and the villain dropped to the ground."Ow! No! Batman Please Don't hurt me!" Pinocchio said as he inches away from the caped crusader.
Soon Commissioner Gordon came over."alright that's enough, Batman!"he shouted," I won't let you attack an innocent child and a gentle soul who only wants to make his dream park a reality and that is not a crime."
Pinocchio winced in pain.
"You know what,"the commissioner said," arrest Batman!"
He was shocked as the police came at him to take him into custody. Batman got into a stance as he was surrounded and an officer grabbed him while two others came over to cuff him as he struggled. Pinocchio watched the whole thing happen as he escaped backstage.
As Batman was taken away by the Gotham police.
Afterwards, Pinocchio found his way down to his lair to check on the captive Robin who was locked in a cage resembling Stromboli's
The Boy Wonder woke up inside and saw Pinocchio looking in at him."so your awake," he said in his chipper tone." When I met The Blue Fairy I was just like you I couldn't feel so alive." He said with a giggle.
"You're a monster."Robin spat,"everyone is going to find you out eventually!"
"Oh,"Pinocchio sighed sounding hurt, and then it turned into a chipper child like giggle."let me ask you and I want you to be honest as Honest John."
No response."have you ever heard of The Blue Fairy?"
"Well,"Pinocchio began." I guess that's I no. You see she and I go way back, we loved each other we dreamed that one day we would build a park much like this one as plain as the nose on my face and then she went away I don't know where I saw her leave ever since, I have spent my whole life to build this place so that everyone can have make friends and laugh all the time in hopes that my little blue fairy will return."
Robin then said," she's gone Jimany."
"Who?"Pinocchio said,"you must mean my friend Jimany Cricket."
Robin could tell this guy had lost it, he actually believes he's the actual Pinocchio and doesn't even recall his own identity.
Robin then looked around and saw kids tied up like marionettes and mouth duck taped with tears running down their eyes.
"Now you're probably wondering how I was able to stay young all these years,"Pinocchio said," Jimany showed me a magic pit that heals you and it even makes you young forever, Jimany also has many friends with black masks any ways your also wondered what I'm planning to do to you ,old buddy old pal."
Pinocchio then added."like the actor Stromboli says when I'm done with you," he pulled out a hatchet." You'll make good fire wood."
He then giggled darkly.
(How do you think "Jimany Cricket" is and what do you think his evil plan should be?)
