The first thing was to rid the city of the cause, he knew. It pleased him to see the mayor, the reporter, the commission, and the doctor as his prisoners. He must make sure to keep a very close eye on them. They would not be creating more chaotic scum. Therefore, now what must be done, is he must rid the city once and for all of them. He looked through his notes, and counted how many inmates were in Arkham. That would be too much. How could they not have seen just how things really were, and how they were causing it? He decided the best course of action would be most likely to finish them off at once. As they were in Arkham, he must target the asylum itself. Of course, once he had done that, there would be no more need for it, as everything would be as it should be in the city. That must be the next course of action. And he must take it as soon as possible.
He was wondering what would be the best way to do it, to cause as little disorder as possible, when he noticed on one of his cameras and saw that now Batman was there. He had not been expecting this, and was furious that things were being disturbed. After all, he had it all carefully planned. He looked at the clock. There was not much time. This was exactly the thing he was aiming to destroy from Gotham. Chaos, uncertainty, unpredictability.
No! thought Lyle. He felt terrified and angry that things seemed to be slipping from his control so quickly. Thankfully, he still had the prisoners. How was it that he was the only one who could think clearly, and see things how they really were? What must he do? He must eliminate everything that contributed to the problem, and as he had been wrong about the doctors, politicians, and reporters, he could now see that Batman was also part of the problem, therefore he must also rid the city of him. He must!
Lyle was being led down the corridor. He could see the inmates in their cells. It was obvious that they had not learned their lesson, as they were as noisy and chaotic as before he had come to work there, but that was fine. At the trial, everyone seemed pleased that he was being sent to Arkham as an inmate himself. Little did they know that this was actually what Lyle had planned all along. Now there was no way they would remove him, and therefore, he could now keep an eye on everyone.
I must thank Esperata, since if wasn't for her encouragement, this story would probably never have been written.
