(Batcave)

After that incident with Croc we made our way to the Batcave, apparently Batman smuggled some of his things here just in case. Good thing too because we desperately need this cure. I paced around on the main platform as Batman typed in his computer and talked on the other line to somebody named Oracle. My guess is that it was some information broker that worked for him. I looked around and noticed some boxes lying around and that some of them still had a logo on them. I walked over and got a closer look and recognized the logo.

"Wayne Tec." I whispered. "I knew it." Batman looked over at me from his computer.

"What are you talking about?" He asked.

"Wayne Tec, those gadgets all of those vehicles," I explained. "I knew where you got them I just didn't want to admit it was true." Batman took a deep sigh.

"Jayden…"

"You stole all this stuff." I exclaimed.

"What?" He asked.

"Oh don't act dumb," I snapped. "You're supposed to be an icon of good and justice when your nothing but a common thief. You stole all this stuff from Wayne."

"Jayden…I really needed Wayne's technology," He explained. "You see the things I use don't get sold to the government like you think, they get scrapped and locked into storage. I could clean out a whole room of this stuff and no one, not even Wayne would notice."

"And that makes it alright to steal?"

"What about you that cloaking device, communicators and other gadgets you use don't come from you did they?"

"No, I stole them but you're supposed to be better than me. Just forget it, how's the cure coming along." I grunted he sighed after turning back to the terminal.

"It's almost ready, I can't make enough now but enough to take care of Ivy's plants." He explained as he pulled out a syringe filled with green liquid.

"Good, if those things get any bigger," Before I could finish I was cut off by a giant vine smashing Batman's computer. He got out of the in time as a few more started falling towards me.

"Shadow, over here!" Batman yelled. I jumped over some vines and over to the other platform as they crushed the remains of his lair.

"Well, won't Wayne will be pissed when he sees this," I chuckled.

"The ways blocked by Ivy's vines," He said. "There another way leading to some sewers that'll lead back to intensive treatment let's go."

"Yes, sir." I said sarcastically.

We made our way through some caverns as my communicator went off. I clicked it on as we ran towards the end of the cave to see a rock formation.

"Shadow, It's Breeze," She said. "Are you okay?"

"Sure, aside from the fact were being attacked by giant super humans and plants," I explained sarcastically as I scaled a small cliff while Batman easily zip-lined across. "Oh and now I'm scaling rocks while having waves crash down on me, everything's coming up roses." The line was silent for a few minutes before she started talking.

"Did I call at a bad time?" She asked.

I had just jumped onto the ledge of the entrance to the sewer as I caught my breath.

"No, I'm good now. What's up?" I asked.

"I'm getting seismic readings off the charts," She explained. "Dusk has also been overlooking the island from the docks, he's told me that large vines have been covering all the island."

"It's getting that bad huh? Don't worry I'll stop her then Joker." I said.

"Alright, just let me know if you need anything." She said as the line went out.

"Who was that?" Batman asked.

"A friend of mine, she's an expert on computers," I said. "She's the reason I have Adonis." I then gave him a look. "You even think about looking for her and I'll feed you your balls."

"Don't worry I was just curious." He said as we made our way to the main sewer junction.

"Whoa," I gasped as the once dirty water was now replaced by glowing green goop. I quickly grabbed my earpiece. "Breeze, we have an even bigger problem now."

"Oh great there's more," She snapped. "What is it now, did Cobblepot break out and is now a giant mutated penguin, or has Hatter created his own Wonderland?"

"I would prefer giant penguins in Wonderland compared to the crap I just found," I joked. "Joker's dumping his TITAN crap into the main sewer junction and I need you to use that brain of yours to find out why…please." She let out a small chuckle.

"Don't worry I'm on it." She said as she clicked off.

"Hey, don't worry my girl is on the job." I gloated as he glared at me.

"Oracle, will already have had this solved and figured out by the time your girlfriend has even Googled Arkham Maps."

"Oh, it tells jokes?" I chuckled as I jumped over a ledge and took out another one of Ivy's pods. We did this for a few more minutes until we each received a call from our respected partners.

"What have you got for me?" I asked.

"Are you sure you want to hear this," She asked. "It's pretty bad."

"Not as bad as what I'm seeing right now, talk to me."

"Jokers dumping his entire TITAN into that waste chamber and acts like a storage tank. When it gets full it empties into the Gotham River. It's never been a problem before but…" She trailed of as I let out a tired sigh.

"It's full of TITAN, we have to figure out how to stop it and fast Joker knows we're coming."

"I'm on it."

I looked over at Batman and gave him a grin as we jumped over another bridge. I was about to gloat when he interrupted me.

"Joker's planning on using the processer in the waste storage room and is going to unleash his TITAN into Gotham River." He said in his emotionless tone.

"Dammit." I said in defeat as we moved to higher ground. After climbing to the very top my communicator started going off.

"Shadow, according to the layout there are three control rooms to shut it down. The first one is above you." Breeze informed.

"Thanks babe, Batman probably knows what I know so we'll work together for the time being and stop Joker together." I said.

"Good but, what if the TITAN reaches Gotham?" She asked. Before I could answer Batman had done it for me.

"It won't reach Gotham." He said with determination.

"Have faith my dear. We'll take stop this crap from getting out."

"Okay, good luck to the both of you." She said as she clicked off.

We both arrived underneath a floor as we heard an irritated voice coming through the walls.

"I don't care how you do it I want it done now!" Joker snarled.

"Y-Yes sir!" A voice stuttered as we positioned ourselves across a broken old wall. Batman pulled out his Batclaw and pointed it at the wall.

"Whoa, is that thing a gun or something?" I asked. He then fired three hooks out of it and they all flew across the chamber and stuck into the wall. He then gripped on to the main cord they were all connected to and with all his strength ripped the wall down.

The thugs inside gasped in horror as the wall crumbled to the floor. I then made my move and jumped up to the ledge and into the room. No one had time to react as I took down each thug singlehandedly, as I was punching one guy I failed to see staggered to his feet and pointed a 9mm glock at my back. Before he could fire a Batarang swerved around him and knocked it out of his hand. He clenched his wrist in pain as he turned around to be greeted by a drop kick to his head. We looked around the room to see that the room was clear of thugs. I looked down at the thug Batman had just taken down to see a gun just a few inches from him. Embarrassed at my own stupidity I turned around and left made my way to the door.

"Thanks," I grunted as I walked out of the room.

"Don't mention it." He said as he followed me shortly after.

We made our way to the pump room where we overlooked Joker's men from an upper level. They were talking bullshit as we counted how many of them there were.

"How many?" I asked.

"Seven," Batman said as he pulled out a few batarangs. "That one by the controls is armed."

"I'll take care of him." I said as I positioned myself. I nodded over to him as he threw his Batarang I leaped over to the one by the control and landed a drop kick to his face as Batman's batarangs took out three other men.

One guy with stun rods ran towards me, but Batman jump down and tackled him to the ground. Once he got him to the ground he lifted his fist and punched the man in the face knocking him out cold. Another guy came towards me with a set of knives. He made multiple attempts to stab me but I dodged he attack with ease. I then grabbed both his twisted them causing him to drop his knife and delivered a punch to his face knocking him to the ground unconscious.

Batman swiped his cape across one man's face blinding him while delivering a barrage of punches to the others chest, he then jumped in the air and landed a kick to his face. As he fell to the ground the other man started to get his vision back only to see Batman's fist plant itself to his face. After he went down we looked around the area to see if we missed anyone. I chuckled as I looked over the unconscious bodies.

"Ha, no wonder Joker wants to make these losers stronger," I joked. "They go down way to easy."

"And that's how I like it," He said as he moved to the pump terminal. "When I'm done hear I need to find and destroy all the TITAN left over." He finished as he destroyed the terminal with his hacking tool.

"Yeah, could you imagine if Mask, Two-Face or Cobblepot got ahold of this?" I asked. "God only knows what kind of hell they could cause." He then destroyed the next terminal as he looked at me.

"Okay, two down one to go." He said as he walked out of the room.

We made our way to the next pump room to see that it was going to be much more difficult than the last. Like the last room, there were seven guards but they were all armed with assault rifles and they each had a suicide collar around their necks. Batman and used his batclaw to launch himself over to a nearby gargoyle while I used my cloaking to sneak over to a nearby vent. I quietly pried it off as I slowly crept through the air ducts. I turned on my glasses to see two guards standing on the floor above me and reached in my belt to pull out an explosive charge. I set it above me as Batman took out one guy walking on the catwalk by hanging him from one of the gargoyles. Before his collar went off I pulled out my detonator and pushed the button causing the floor beneath the thugs to crumble as they fell through. They landed on their backs and groaned in pain as I ran over and knocked both of their heads into the ground.

"Over here, I found him!" A voice yelled from above.

I looked up to see a man aiming his gun down at me and open fire on me. I ran back over to the air duct and dived through it as bullets rained down upon me. He ran out of bullets and tried reload, but was to slow as Batman snuck up behind him and knocked him out.

We took out every single one of Joker's men as we made our way to the control room and disabled the last pump. I breathed a sigh of relief as Batman immediately rushed out of the room.

"Hey, calm down," I said chasing after him. "The TITAN isn't going to go to the river take a minute and catch your breath." Apparently I said something to offend him as he turned around and gave me an annoyed glare.

"Every minute we waste is another minute Ivy has to spread her plants," Batman snarled. "If you want to waste time and take a nap then by all means go ahead. But I'm going after her and stopping her plants from taking over Gotham." He said as he turned away.

"Whoa, wait a minute," I said, as I caught up with him. "I didn't say take a break I meant just take a minute to breathe." He gave me a confused look. "You may be strong but you have limits, I know you want to stop Ivy and Joker but if you keep going on like this you're just going to tire yourself out."

"Yeah Bats, you're too stressed out," Jokers voice said over the speakers. "You need to relax a little, maybe go on a vacation or on a nice date oh, what about Catwoman? You two always do look like the perfect couple. What about you Shadow, got anyone waiting for you at home?"

"What the hell do you want you freak?" I snarled.

"Oh you do have someone," He exclaimed. "Can't wait to meet her." He said as we made our way to the elevators leading back topside, but before we could go anywhere electric barriers were blocking all the doors as me and Batman looked around in shock. "Anyways as you can imagine I'm a little mad at you two for ruining my plans, so I'm sending down a token of my displeasure, oh gosh I hope it doesn't hurt you to badly Bats as for your new side kick hell…I hope he screams louder than Dr. Young." He said a low tone of voice.

Ignoring his insult I then looked around and really examined the room. There were three elevators and three doors which were currently closed off. The room itself was round and large enough to fit twenty people. That's when I realized it.

"Shit, we literally just walked right into an ambush." I stated bluntly. Just then the room started to shake as Batman stood next to me.

"You're just noticing?" He asked sarcastically.

The walls then started to shake as the middle elevator door started to have dents coming out of it. We then started to hear growling as the doors were ripped apart to reveal a TITAN inmate. It roared loudly as charged at us with all its fury. Batman pulled out a Batarang and threw it at its head we both dived in separate directions as it stumbled into the electric barrier behind us.

I quickly ran over to it as it fell back and started punching it in the stomach. Thanks to my streantgh I was an equal match against it but that didn't stop a group of Joker from sending his thugs down in a separate elevator.

"Let's kill these bastards."

"Don't get too close to that thing."

"Don't worry, let's just-"

Before they could step foot outside the elevator Batman had begun his assault on them as he threw three Batarangs at three of the men. They went down easily but the two armed with knives were going to be some trouble. They quickly attacked Batman trying to land a cut across his face until he swiped his cape across one man's face and fought of the other. He landed a few punches into his chest as he finished him with a kick to the head. The other one had just gotten his vision back ran up behind Batman and wrapped his arms around his chest hoping to restrain him. It didn't as Batman pounded the back of his head into his face causing him to let go as Batman delivered a punch to his head knocking in to the ground.

I was locked in battle with the TITAN thug as took a massive swung at me. I dogged the hit and punched him in the face causing it to growl in pain as it turned its angry gaze back at me. Its green eyes shined bright as it picked me up and threw me against the wall. I fell to the ground in pain as I looked up to see it ready to charge at me again. Batman ran to my side and threw a Batarang at him as I jump out of the way at the last second.

As I regained my balance the elevator doors opened and to add more pain and misery ten more thugs showed up and started to swarm us. I drew my sword as they all charged at me with pipes, stun rods and knives.

I deflected one thugs attack with my sword as I pushed him into the electric barrier as one thug came at me with a set of stun rods. He swung them at me but I grabbed his wrist and twisted them causing him to drop them as I kicked him into another thug. I quickly picked up the stun rods as Batman came over and attacked the others as more started coming in through the elevators.

"Dammit, how many men does joker have?" I asked as I lunged the stun rod into one man's chest. Batman didn't answer as he knocked out one man's teeth and kicked another guy in his stomach.

Just then the TITAN thug roared at us as it charged at us like a bull. Batman and I flipped over the men as it intentionally knocked down half of Jokers thugs. They all lay on the ground either unconscious or groaning in pain as it grabbed one of the nearby thugs and threw him at us. He missed of course and sent the poor bastard into the wall as more of Jokers men appeared in the elevators.

"Screw them," I said. "Let's just have the big guy tear them apart."

"Hmm, that's not bad idea." He said. "Clear me a path to him I got an idea." I nodded as the thugs started to surround us thanks to my strength I was able to pick one guy up and through him at the crowd clearing a path to the behemoth. Batman wasted no time running at him as the beast did the same. Just before it could hit Batman flipped over him and caused him to crash into the electric wall.

It let out a yelp as it fell to its knees Batman quickly ran up behind him and wrapped his arms around its neck. The monster roared as it swings its massive hands around wildly knocking down all of Jokers men. As it knocked the last one away sending him flying into the wall I ran up to it and started attacking its stomach again. I landed a few heavy blows to its stomach as the monster slumped to its knees.

"Shadow, move!" Batman yelled his voice sounding strained. I leaped out of the way as Batman flipped over the monsters back with his hand gripped tight on the monsters head and slammed it into the ground. The monster let out a growl as its body lay unconscious on the ground surrounded by even more unconscious thugs. I stood there for a minute catching my breath as I felt a hand on my shoulder.

"Take a minute to catch your breath," He suggested. "You'll need it."

"Thanks," I grumbled as we left the room and the multiple broken bodies along with it.

Almost done boys and girls just three more chapters and I can get started on Arkham City.
