Chapter 5 – The One Who Knocks

~ PM, Review, Follow and Favorite … I've been gone for a while. Obviously, but hey let's get back into it. I'm also gonna start doing my FMA fanfic or my Naruto , this one will be short. But don't worry I'll work to remedy that in the future.


Meanwhile in Gotham.

A man is walking down a highway… It's quiet with the exception of his loud footsteps until he reaches a large set of double doors. He forcefully pushes the doors open and is greeted by a large stage complete with creaky floorboards and worn out posters…Of what seems to be circus performers.

The broad-shouldered man climbs on stage and pulls aside the curtains that reveal a rusty steel door and through that door is an even longer corridor that leads to one final door.

… The door is rusty and requires some force to open it and in the room…Is nothing really. Just a light bulb dangling helplessly from a thin rope. The man turns it on giving off nothing more than a dim light just bright enough to see that there is a lean, muscular figure bound by shackles in the back of the room. The broad-shouldered man slowly and deliberately walks over to the kneeling man and lifts him up by his hair.

"…Hello…Jason…" The shackled man slowly raises his head to spit, revealing himself to be the real Jason Todd. The man ignores the glob of spit and blood on his trench coat. He grabs stares at Jason and proceeds to ask…

"Do you know who I am?" Jason smirks at his question.

"Is it really you Santa?!" The man grins a little, then ferociously strikes Jason across the face which causes him to spit out blood before he talks.

"I…I Know who you are Thomas Elliot, and I know your plan…Regardless, it doesn't matter in the end." The man pauses for a moment and asks-

" Why? "

"Because…I'm going to kill you. I'm going to kill you again. Then I'm going to get the dragon balls and wish you back…Then kill you again…Then I'm going to do a human transmutation and bring you back…Just to kill you again. Oh, and when that's over I'm going to dump your ashes into the Lazarus Pit…And you know what I'm going to do next…

"Kill me again." Jason laughs. "I'm glad you get the idea.

"…And I was going to invite you to my birthday party for apple pie." Jason blows the hair out from in front of his face.

"Sorry, I'm allergic."

Hush scoffs at him and begins to walk away. But not before saying his goodbyes.

"For a dead man, you're awfully chipper…They aren't going to save you, don't be delusional. It's not healthy to go around lying to yourself."

"…You'll have plenty of time for that later."
