Chapter 3: Broken Trust
Well, it took me about three going on four days to get rid of that limp in my step as I started to head towards the 'meeting room.'
The 'meeting room' as you would say is just simple cinder block 30 by 30 room that was built when I first got here and it became my new home in the begging but the thing was…they didn't tell me that I was gonna have a new neighbor, whom was living outside of my little home.
And once I became the mate of Killer Croc, they let me live with him but I had to show up to meetings, thus came the word 'meeting room' came to be, and not only that but they brought down some of my friends and some of the inmates after they transformed my little home into a meeting room.
Soon the inmates began to open up to me because I try to see things under there perspective and I try to do the thing that they like to do.
I snapped out of my thoughts as I soon realized that I was just few feet away from my destination and grin broke out of my face as I saw a shadow pass the window and the scent came to me…
"Ah, Aaron Cash…" I said just loud enough to see the shadow stop in right in the middle of the window.
Right before I could see his hand raising for the opened the blinds, I duck under the window seal and waited for the right moment
"Did you hear something?"
I slapped my hand over my mouth to hold back my laughter that was treating to escape my mouth. I waited for a moment as I started to adjust myself the balls of my feet and waited till the perfect moment…
"Are you sure Mr. Cash?"
Shifting back and forth as I got my hips ready…
"Yeah I'm sure, sure as this claw on my…"
I took that as queue and launched myself up and towards the window. But not only that but I added my own specialized 'roar' to go along with it.
Never in my whole life I've ever seen anybody jump that high, or turned about three shades lighter or even have the smell of urine coming from them.
My laughter multiplied by the number of 10 as the crouch part of uniform was now getting darker.
As I walked in; he was leaving in a hurry and excusing himself before he left the doctor and I thought I was alone with the doctor but there was another sent in the air and for some reason, I couldn't put my finger on it.
"I know that look from anywhere…" The doctor snapped out of my thoughts as I took the warm blanket from her and laid down on the custom made leather couch. "The look of confusion, am I correct?"
"Yes, but who does this scent belong to?"
"That would be me."
I quickly shot up from my position and went on defensive mode as the dark shadows began to take form into a man in a black and gray outfit but with a black bat in the middle of his chest and his face was covered and two spikes as ears were protruding from it.
"Relax child, this is one of the good men that we have, and his name is…"
"The Batman."
The doctor looked at me in shock as she nodded her head once as she sat back down but I moved the couch more closer to the door because there was something about this man that didn't feel right to me…
"And how did you come up with this information?"
"The friends that I made here, they told me all about him!" I pointed an accusing finger at him before I turned my attention back to the couch.
"Miss. Griffin, I highly suggest that you don't do any kind of restraining actives at the moment and epically in your condition!"
I merely hissed lowly as I used my knee and my lower leg to push my couch further away from this man as something about him made me a bit un easy.
"And what is her condition?"
"Her condition is…"
"None of his concern!" I quickly interject.
The old doctor gave me a disapproving look as a she looked my grandmother for a moment. Maybe, I thought to myself as started to fluff the pillows, maybe that's the only reason why I put up with her for so long.
"Young Miss. Griffin-Jones here is pregnant with twins so far."
I hissed loudly and bared my teeth to man before me as he shot me a look of surprised but he covered it quickly.
The doctor stood up quickly as she held her hand up to stop and to show the man to get behind her and wait.
"Don't be so quick to judge yet Batman, I know this may sound odd to you but I believe that she'll make an excellent mother and for handling babies here at Arkham Asylum, lets just say that we hadn't had a riot here in over two months already and I do know that we owe it to this reclaimable lady here. And if you don't mind be I need to start the interviewing before the time is up, so if you don't mind…"
The Batman didn't say anything as he sat himself on the chair that is nearest to the main doors.
I narrowed my eyes as I spotted something shiny from under his hand but I kept it to myself as the familiar sound came to my ears.
"And so, the last time that we meet, you were saying that you were shot. Am I correct?"
"Yes."
"So, do you mind continuing?"
"Sure…like I said before, I passed out because of the gunshot wound."
The first thing that I've notice that something was wrong is when I heard a lot of mechanical things moving around me.
I tried to move my eyes but I felt something was holding them down.
"Um Doctor, our test subject seems to be coming to. What should we do?"
"Eh, knock her out again but make sure that you give her a stronger dosage."
I then began to move my hands and feet around to see what was really going on but to my horror, I wasn't able move them.
A whimper escaped the cotton that was taped around my mouth as I felt the familiar feeling of latex rubbing the junction of my arm.
And before I knew was happening or I could guess was happening, I screamed bloody murder as I felt the invading needle entering my arm.
I cried out as felt a burning sensation coming from my arm and started to travel through my veins.
"Hush now, it will be all better soon!"
I felt my head began to swim as I started to cry and then blank…
I became quite for a moment before I started to scratch the back of my hand nervously.
"Yes? What is that you want to say child?"
"During the time that I was held captive and awake, I kept on hearing the something's over and over again from the people who did this to me."
"And was exactly did they say? If don't mind me asking?"
"No, none at all…they said a mans name, and he was a doctor I think. Dr. Langstrom; Dr. Kirk Langstrom. And they kept on saying his notes and his notes and his findings and how such a great mind went to waste, you know. And in the begging they kept on saying 'what if?' this and that and one of them said something shook me to the core during that time…"
I knew that that small recorder caught my shaky sigh but I had to stay strong.
"Take your time child…"
"Thank you and from what I over heard was…
"Are you sure that she's stabilized for the testing or the main test it self?"
"Sure, I'm sure. This young lady here showed us a great deal about her strength and her will to live for the past month."
"Yeah, what ever you say Bob but something that has been telling me that something is going to happen."
"Look! What's the worst that is gonna happen to us? Her being freed and then eating us?"
"Every time that I woke up, it was hell all over again and from what I remembered the times it took to get me like this, had to been about a good four times but they were talking about a fifth one at the time."
"Are really sure about this, I mean she gotta really be in her permanent stage right about now and…"
THUD!
"This is going to the last fucking time that you're gonna open that shitty black hole that you call of a mouth!"
CLICK, CLICK!
"Wait! No! Please don't do…"
BANG!
I held my breath in for a moment as I heard the man with the gun panting. Never, I've been so afraid for my life…
"I don't care what those motherfuckers say, I'm gonna make damn sure that you stay like this."
'Like what? What do you mean?'
I didn't get a chance to protest as I felt the invading pain of a needle being stabbed into my upper arm.
"There and all I need to do is close up the tank and refilled it again…"
'Tank? I was in a tank? Since when?'
"In the begging and at first, I didn't know what came over me but thinking about it now; I found out what it was…"
I waited patently as he dragged my body over the cold hard floor and it was until felt something being loosen around my mouth and then soon my hands became free…
The first thing that I wanted to do was to break free and run back to my friends that I made down the ally but some sweet scent of something coppery filled my nose and reminded me that I was starving…
And when I heard a the click of the same gun that killed the man, who was still laying dead on the floor, I turned around very slowly and it was then that I intently notice that I was taller than the man! But that can't be! I thought to myself because the man had to be about a good five foot nine at least.
But when my sight landed on that silver gun, my mind just went blank…
"I know that you must've heard this a lot Batman, but I really didn't mean to do it…I was just…"
My voice began to crack as I tried to hide my tears form my mate and friends greatest foe.
I didn't know when my interview ended or when Cash came in but I was so relived to have the doctor escort the Batman and Cash out of the room and pushed the door slightly more open to have a nurse walk in with sonic gram machine.
"Hey girly-girl! It's about time that…what on earth?"
I sniffed as I looked up to see my old best friend from my normal life coming towards me.
Fiona Scott, the only living proof of my past life and my oldest best friend from the first grade and also she lived down the street of my first and original home.
"Why does it always has to be me? I try to be nice and give but why does it always gonna come back and slap me across the face."
"Oh honey, I don't know," Fiona whispered to me as she stroked my hair and tried to give me comfort the best as she could.
After a while, my crying calmed down to sniffles as Fiona instructed me to lay down and pull up my t-shirt.
She started to talk to me about what is going on in Arkham and how some of the inmates are asking for her and same as the doctors who treat them.
But when she started to talk about Harvey Dent, a.k.a. Two Face, I just had to raise an eye brow as her cheeks began to become pink and her taking became lower and lower…
"Fiona…" I called to her in sing like voice.
"Huh?"
"You're talking low again…"
"Oh…"
"And your cheeks are turning pink…"
"No there not!" she mumbled to me as she squeezed the cold gel on to my lower stomach and began to look for my babies.
After a few moments, a small shape began to appear in the small screen…
Fiona took a quick glance at the covered window; then back to the small screen and then back the window.
She then put down the device and opened the window blinds and went back her job.
Mary look up to see her mate with a dead serious look in his eyes, concentrating on the small screen no more than five feet away from him.
Pressing at the exact same spot, the same little shape appeared and Fiona pointed the spot and confirmed that it was a baby. Moving more the right, another shape appeared and again Fiona said that it was indeed another baby.
I looked up to see Croc, now with his shoulders slumped and his hands firmly pressed on the glass windows.
I held back my smile as Fiona began to feel my stomach and after a while another image showed up on the screen…
Fiona smiled as she turned to me and held up three fingers and showed my mate the same thing that she showed to me.
A huge smile grew on my face as Fiona started to print out the pictures as I was just finishing wiping off the warming gel.
"So I take it Mr. Tall, dark and scaly is the hubby?"
I only smiled as I took the pictures from Fiona and give her a quick hug as we went our separate ways.
But before I knew what was happening, two semi strong men came into the room and started to pull me away from the door that I called my home.
I cried out when one of them twisted my arm up to high and started to push me to the other exit.
"You bastards! What the fuck do you think you are doing?"
"Now young Mrs…"
"Now don't you fucking start now you sow! How dare you! How dare you!"
Before I could say another word, I felt a prick on the side of my neck and the tingling sensation started to moving around my knees and up my back.
I growled and snapped my teeth toward the person to did it and not to my surprise, the Batman was putting away a object that look like a gun and stepped back as I give him a sharp hiss.
The darkness was closing in and fast. I wanted to follow my instincts and fight and run to my mates side, but the only thing that I could do was cry out in distress when I heard Croc roared and started to fight the guard that were there.
I cried out again as I fell to my back but to see Fiona being held back…
So I guess she wasn't in it…
