Chapter 2: Blackgate Prison
The Batwing fly's close to the site of the largest prison complex for criminals in Gotham City. Blackgate Prison. As soon as Batman steers his plane in close range, he jumps out of the Batwing and sets it on Auto-pilot and begins to dive bomb all the way to the ground. And then spread his arms out of which spread his cape out to form like a bat wings. Of which he then begins to glide down to the ground safely and then does a super hero landing. And then once he slowly gets back up, he can see that he is on one of the entrances of the prison on the west side. And sees that the entrance is damage with the signed broken off and one end of it is on the snow floor.
"Looks like Black Mask entered the prison here. I need to find Commissioner Loeb - before it's too late." Said Batman to himself as he walks to the entrance and crouches as he gets close to duck under the broken sign. Just as he finished getting on the other side, he begins to hear some voices just up ahead.
"He said he'd leave my family alone if I did what he asked…" Said a male voice that sounds scared.
"I hope he keeps his word. Thing is, you ain't gonna live to find out. Sorry, Warden. Black Mask can't leave no loose ends lyin' around." Said another male voice that sounds intimidating.
"What are you waiting for? If you're gonna do it get it over with." Said the first male voice.
"Hey, s'not every day you get to kill a Warden. I'm gonna enjoy this." Said the second male voice.
Batman walks up ahead to turn a corner and ducks underneath some pipes but stops to see someone walking backwards in fear. The man has a black jacket and pants and shoes. He has a black and grey striped tie around his neck And has brown skin and has a golden watch around his left wrist. And he has short black hair and has his right brown eye visible with the other eye covered up in a eye patch. And has a name tag on this jacket. Martin Joseph.
"No! Please!" Said Joseph as he gets hit the face by a bat and falls to the ground hard. Which belongs to a man that is wearing in a all black jacket and pants and shoes. And has a black mask only covering his face. One of Black Mask goons
"Oh I'll kill ya all right. But by the time I do that eye won't be the only thing you're missin'." Said the Black Mask goon as he towers over the fallen man. Batman slowly walks up to the man without him knowing. But only Joseph saw Batman.
"What is that!? Behind you?" HE pointed behind him.
"Oh, camaaan. 'spect me to fall for that? I mean, try something original, you -" Said the goon before he notice Batman shadow next to his and turns around to see there is someone behind him. He tries to swing the bat at him but Batman grabs it knocks it away and breaks it before grabbing his neck up to the wall and then slams him into the ground hard and holds his left arm tightly and kicks him in the face to knock him out. Batman then turns around to see the Warden.
" No! Stay away!" Said the Warden as he tries to use a pipe to swing at Batman. But Batman just knocks it away and grabs the Warden right arm and forced him to his knees and threatens it in a hold to break it. "Don't hurt me!" He begs of which Batman lets him go. And the Warden just scoots a bit away from Batman up against a wall. "I'd heard the rumors but… You… you're not supposed to be real."
"Who tore this place apart?" asked Batman. He then hears a loud roar echoing from the door behind him.
"I don't know what it is - it's huge." Said Joseph.
" Where is Black Mask?" asked Batman.
"I - I don't know. He's here for Commissioner Loeb. Maybe one of his men knows where he's headed." He suggested to the living myth. Batman stares at him a bit more. "What was I supposed to do? He threaten my family! He's was going to.."
"I don't have time to discuss this- but you and I both know that doesn't make what you did right." Said Batman.
"All I did was clear my men out of one wing. I assume Black Mask owns most of them anyway." Said Joseph.
"You're the warden of this prison. You're suppose to stand up to criminals, not let them push you around." Said Batman.
"Look, I just want to go home to my family." Said Joseph.
Batman then turns around to the black security gate that unlocks and slides open up and down. Of which he sees a black metal fence that leads to some stairs are broken off. And from there he can see a black gate door below. He walks up tot he door and sees some Black Mask thugs in the room where there are other prison cells, full of the prisoners. "These are Black Mask's men. I'll make them tell me where I can find Black Mask." Said Batman as he opened the gate door and walks into the room. Surpassing them all and Black Mask goons. Of which one of them goes to the controls to try to free the prisoners.
"What is that thing!?" Said One of the Criminals.
"It's - it's the bat!" Said Another one of the Criminals.
"I heard he was a myth!" Said another one of the Criminals.
"He's come for us!" Said another one of the Criminals.
Batman then begins to jump and kick one of the Black Mask goons in the face. And then pounced on him to punch his lights out. Just in time as the other criminals are freed. Batman used the momentum to upper cut one of the goons into the air. And then moves quickly to punch one of the goons to the floor and quickly punched the thug in the face. Batman then jumped on the wall and used the jump to punched the thug punched before to knock his lights out. And then elbow hits another Black Mask goon sneaking up behind him and was just about to punched him again until the thug gets back on his feet quickly and has his hands out in a surrendering way. "Just don't - don't hurt me. Please!" He begs to Batman.
Batman then approached him and then grabbed the Black Mask men and slams him up against a wall with both hands on the jacket and Batman leans close to the thug to scare him. "Where's Black Mask?!" Batman asked.
"How the hell should I know?" The mobster asked before Batman leans his head back a bit.
"I'm going to make you talk. How much pain you endure before that is in your hands." Batman threatened him.
"Screw you." The mobster said in a raspy voice.
"I don't have time for this." Batman said, getting tired of having to deal with this guy.
"Ok, ok." The mobster said, as he doesn't want to get killed or hurt anymore and is ready to spill the everything he knows. "He's heading to the execution chamber-with Loeb."
"Smart move. Now you get to take a nap." Batman said, knocking him into unconscious with a headbutt and then lets the thug go to fall to the ground. Once that was done, he enters into the next holding cell area through a security door. And just as he does, he sees something entering out of the blue in the corridor. It shows a high tech drone with a large camera lens on it and four propellers to keep it hovering.
"A drone. That doesn't belong here. Wonder who's controlling it?" Said Batman as he sees the drone moving ahead. He begins to follow the drone. Batman just entered just entered a area where there are three prisoners still in their cells. And just as he is about to exit, the metal gates behind him and infront of him closed shut. And also the prison cells open up. Letting the three prisoners to escape. Just before they could attack him, they are suddenly attached by a web line on their backs and are pulled into the air. Where something fast came from the sky light on the ceiling and punched all the criminals in one spin kick. And then used the same momentum to web them all up in one giant ball of webs. The light of this prison reveals this person to be non other than Spider-Man.
Spider-Man had landed before Batman, but had his back to him and didn't even notice Batman behind him. "Boy that felt good. And man I should have just web launched myself here. Maybe I would have gotten here faster to stop all of these. But at least I got here. Just hope nothing will surprise me at this point. " Said Spider-Man as he didn't notice Batman was literally now very close behind him.
"You." Said Batman in a angry voice.
That is all it took to make Spider-Man to be spooked and turns around to meet the living myth." You... okay... I can't believe it... your.. Batman" Said a surprised and shocked Spider-Man as he slightly takes a couple steps back in fear.
"What are you doing here?" Asked Batman as he pushed Spider-Man up against a wall and gives him a very angry glare and has his hand punched the wall next to Spider-Man face to scare him.
"Hey. Nice to meet you. I am Spider-Man... and you must be Batman right?" Asked Spider-Man as he tries to make small talk. But he didn't get a response from him. "Oh okay. Not a friendly talker huh?"
"I will asked one more time. Why are you here?" Asked Batman.
"Okay okay. I um... was doing some site seeing in this town." Said Spider-Man as he tries to stretch the truth a bit. "And just staying in this city for a while from NYC for a bit. But I came here to this prison to stop the poisoners from escaping and help out."
"I don't need any help." Said Batman as he backs away to turn around to find Black Mask.
"Wait!" Said the web head as he gets Batman attention. "I understand you don't want me to be in your way. But clearly I am going to help. Besides... you need backup just in case things get too overwhelming. Plus... I feel like something more is going on in this place. Like something doesn't seem right with this... Black Mask attacking a armed prison like this. So at least let me help you."
Batman only glares at Spider-Man over his shoulders. "Fine. But we do it my way. My city, my rules." Said Batman as that is all he saying.
"Fair." Said Spider-Man.
Batman notice a ledge over the closed gate that leads onto the other side. 'The only way to advance is to grapple up and over this gate. we should hurry.' Batman thought. He looked at Spider-Man and said, "Can you get over this?"
Spidey said. "Can I? Just watch me." Then Spider-Man used his webs to pull himself up onto the ledge and crawl through the space onto the other side. "Do you need help with this?" He said slyly to Batman.
Batman took something out his belt. It look like a line launching, handgun like device that has a three pointed clawed end. HIs Grapnel Gun. Batman used the grapnel gun to get onto the ledge and onto the other side and walked past Spider-Man. "I guess not. Seems like he has the tools to handle obstacles like this." Spidey said quietly as he just shrugged his shoulders.
They then go through the next security door that leads into a hallway. And they see a armored up Black Mask goon over looking a scared Blackgate guard who is on the ground. "Please! I can't take anymore!" said the guard.
"If you take Black Mask's money, you do what he says. If you give him lip, this is what happens." says the heavily armored thug. Just as Batman and Spider-Man got close to those two, heard a roar just up ahead and they saw something on a ledge that leads to another security door. But it was the being on the platform that surprised them.
"What is that?" Asked Batman.
"I don't know." Said Spider-Man as he is just confused as Batman is.
This being has a green, scaly skin with a pale, white hue to his chest. His feet are barefoot and has some bandages around his feet, and also had them wrapped around his hands and wrists as well. This man wears black trousers that had faint, white pinstripes. He also has a black belt around his waist and had loose, red overalls. This man has no shirt on his upper body and had faint, yellow eyes with black, slitted pupils. His teeth were all sharp, yellow fangs; curiously, he had a few fangs protruding out through the skin of his upper and lower lips. From his chest upwards, he has a scaly skin and his belly appeared to have softer skin and was not scaly like the rest of his body. Killer Croc.
They see Killer Croc having a Blackgate Prison Guard his jaws and jerked his head and body around to toss the thug away and then wiped his lips with his right arm. And then they see Killer Croc walking away into the next room.
Batman runs up tot eh armored thug and hits him with his cape to stun him for a moment. And then begins to do a bunch of hard and fast punches onto the thug armored body. And then finished it with a shoulder throw to the ground and then twisted his arm to break it and slams it into the thug head to knock him out. Spider-Man will web up the thug, just to further make sure that the goon stays down. They then leave the guard and goes after that strange humanoid croc. once they go through the door, they see a large metal door controlled by a button on the wall. And they hear voices coming from the other side.
Batman turns on his Detective Vision, a way to see through solid objects and scan things no one else can see. This allows his eyes to become white when it is active. And with this feature he sees a bunch of thugs on the other side of the room and sees some people trapped in cages. Because he can see their outline and also their skeletons.
"Let me out! Do you know who I am?" asked a female voice that sounds like Vicki Vale.
"This is Vicki Vale reporting live from Mike's underpants." Said one of the goons that shows to be watching the other goons beating up a guard. And one of the goons laugh.
"On second thought, you can leave me in the cell. I'm fine here, thanks." Said Vicki.
Batman pulls something out of his belt. It looks a boomerang that in the shape of a bat symbol. He throws Batarang at the button and the metal door opens up slightly. Spider-Man runs up first and slides through the open gap and knocks one of the goons off their feet. "Hi fellas. Hope we are not crashing the party." Said Peter as he jumps at one of the goons to give them a kick to the face. Batman arrived to slide through the open gap just before it closed and joins in the fray of beating up one of the goons that was punching the guard.
"Is that...it's him...it's really him. Are we safe in here?" Vicki asked. While the two were fighting Black Mask's men.
"How should I know?" Said a cameraman in the same cell as her.
"Who is that man with him? The one in red and blue?" Asked Vicki as she means about Spider-Man web lined to a thug to tug him towards him and to uppercut the goon out.
"That's Spider-Man! I heard he is a hero in New York City." Said the cameraman.
"What if they comes for us? We need to get prepared." Vicki said as she sounds scared.
"Relax. I heard on the news they only hurt criminals." Said one of the cameramen.
"And you believe everything on the news?" Vicki questioned.
Just as she finished talking, Batman and Spider-Man almost finished off beating all the goons in the room. Spider-Man sweep his legs to knock the last goon of balance. And then have Batman high knee the goon in the face to knock the goon out for a couple of hours. Batman and Spider-Man take a good look at the people trapped in teh cell, they can see that Vicki has blonde hair and has a grey like winter coat on and high heel brown boots.
Spider-Man slightly removed the chains that were jamming the door so they people can get themselves free on their own. And then joins Batman as he sees a button to open up a broken elevator shaft. And stands on a damaged concrete floor. "Who is he?" asked Vicki.
Spider-Man taps the damaged floor with his feet. "Great. It is a dead end. Now what?" Asked Spider-Man.
"That area of the floor is weak. I can use my explosive gel to break through." Batman told Spider-Man as he dropped down on to the floor as well. He then pulls a handhold device with a small canister attached to it. He then leans down and started to spray a bat symbol with explosive gel on it.
"Say what? Your going to do what Batman?" Spidey said before Batman leans back up and pressed a button on the device of which makes the gel exploded and destroy the weak floor. Batman landed on the floor and lands into a small box room with a window in it, without much trouble while Spider-Man tumbled on the floor a bit before stopping. He slowly gets back on his feet and Spider-Man glares at Batman
"Next time, can you give me a heads up before you do something like that again?" Spider-Man said with irritation in his voice.
"Quiet." He said as he sees a big glass window and moved towards the window with Spider-Man, who stops getting angry follows his example.
They see through the glass room, that down below is a large holding cell area and a bunch of the prisoners have escaped. And they see that Killer Croc in the center of it. Along with someone else beside him. A very large man. A very large and muscular man. On his body is covered in a advance gray armor suit designed after a rhino, which includes two metallic horns on his helmet that light blue optic lenses. This is the Rhino.
"Rhino?" asked Spider-Man as he can't believe what he is seeing.
"You know that... armored man?" Asked Batman.
"Yeah. Short version is, he goes by the name Rhino. But what is he doing in Gotham City of all places? Last time I heard, he was suppose to be locked behind bars In NYC." Said Spider-Man.
"If he was indeed from NYC, then there really is something going on tonight that we are not aware of." Said Batman as they see someone else on the room. The other man in the room didn't look happy at all of what is transpiring tonight in Blackgate Prison. He has a police commissioner hat and a police commissioner uniform with two yellow rings around the ends of the cuff area of the uniform. And he has a white shirt underneath with a black tie around his neck. he has grey hair that is covered up by his hat and brown eyes. This is Gillian B. Loeb.
And the person responsible of this is in the room. HE average physical build, and he wears a white suit with a black shirt underneath it and a white tie around his neck. And has black gloves and shoes on his attire. And also has a black mask covering his entire face. And you can see only green eyes through the eye socks of the mask. This is Black Mask.
"They say crime doesn't pay. But someone oughtta check the good police commissioner's pockets. 'Cause they are LINED with MY money." Said Black Mask as Rhino picked up a hurt guard and tossed him into the wall hard before picking up Loeb to Croc with force.
Croc pulls out Loeb and forces him to face towards Black Mask with a group of following prisoners surrounding them, cheering them on. Black Mask walks close to Loeb a bit with Black Mask holding his own hands. "And what have I got to show for it? My own men in the slammer? Not no more. No, tonight, we're makin' some changes. Some big changes." He said as Killer Croc pushes Loeb through a door and out of view with Black Mask leaving the room but not after looking around the room a bit before leaving.
"You're a dead man walking Loeb!" Said one of the criminals cheering that Loeb is going to pay for his actions tonight.
"You heard the man. Tonight's our night!" Said another one of the criminals
"That's right. He's gonna kill Loeb tonight!" Said another criminals.
"'bout time Loeb got what he deserves." Said another criminal
"Hell yeah it is!" Said another criminal.
"That is not good. We are going to follow him right?" Asked Spider-Man as he just sees Batman walking to a grate airduct and rips it off with his strength.
"Of course we are." Said Batman as that is all he said before he crawls into the open vent and begins to travel into it. As they crawled the the air duct, the reached to the vent that leads to the room where there is some prisoners and a Black Mask goon still in the room. Batman dropped onto one without warning and Spider-Man then appeared to kicked the one Batman fall on to knock that one out for a while.
"Hey, I didn't sign up for gettin' my ass kicked!" said a prisoner as he saw the two heroes before Batman throws a Batarang in his face to stun him before he shoulder throws him to Spider-Man to allow him to web the thug up in a ball of webs.
"I can't believe this!" Shouted another prisoner before he was hit the face by Batman fist to be launched into a wall and is knocked out.
"Hey, let us back in our cells!" Screamed one of the prisoners before Spider-Man grabbed this one with his hands.
"Oh that is a good boy. Learning to go back to your cells. Here, let me give you a bunch to the face!" Said Spider-Man as he slams his fist into the thug face hard to knock the poor guy out. He sees one grabbing a Fire Extinguisher. And just when the thug tossed it, Batman grabs it in time and throws it right back to let it hit the thug and let it explode in a cloud of smoke. The thug coughs as he covers his face. But this just leaves him wide open to be kicked by Batman and gets knocked out.
They turn to see the Black Mask goon still behind the closed off gate. "You ain't gettin' past me." He said as he feels save.
Batman turns on his Detective Vision and sees the weak wall beside the goon. 'That wall beside him is weak. If I can find a way in behind it, I can take him down safely.' Thought Batman. Batman then sees a open cell that has a vent in it. And he can see that there is a lot of calendars all around the room. He pulled a different tool from his pocket. Something similar to his Grapple gun but is a modified version of it. His Batclaw. He used it to launch the claw onto the vent and pulls on the wire to force and pull the vent off and begins to climb into the open vent.
"Huh... guess he really does have the tools to handle everything." Spider-Man whisper to himself as he follows him. They both ended up in a area where there are some large pipes. And just before them is the weaken wall. Batman walks up to it and slowly spread the explosives gel on it in the form of the bat symbol.
"Good. Looks like I soared him off." Just as the goon said that, Batman pressed the button and the gel exploded and destroy the wall. And it also knocks the goon off his feet and falls to the floor and was knocked out. Spidey however just fires some extra webs to make sure the guy stays put for a while. They walked past the security door and enters a area where a closed off door that leads into the prison chapel. But they ignore that room and enter some kind of Medical War. The Medical Ward contained a stretcher and some medical equipment, and a vent duct on the wall.
Batman was about to pull out his Batclaw when Spider-Man stopped him. "Here. Allow me." Said Spidey as he launched two web lines onto the vent and ribs it off easily.
"You're learning." Said Batman as he crawled into the vent.
"Heh. I learned that from you." Said Spider-Man as he crawls into the vent with Batman.
As they crawled into the vent, they heard Black Mast voice and see peaks through one openings in the vent. They see Black Mask in a room where there is a large gas chamber. Where one of the goons is trying to open it up and release teh Calendar Man from it. "Part of me wants to just flip that switch. But it is Christmas Eve… and he is the Calendar Man..." Black Mask paused to let out a small chuckle before calming down. "...and that's just too perfect to ignore."
Black Mask walks around the room with his hands behind his back. "You're going to owe me for this Julian and that could be...useful." Black Mask said to the Calendar Man.
"Uh, sir, what do we do about Loeb?" Asked one of Black Mask's men.
"Bring him in. Bring him in!" He said.
"This is bad." Said Spider-Man quietly as this really doesn't sound good to them both. Both he and Batman started moving again but a bit faster in the vents. They both dropped down from the vent into what appeared to be an spectate room of the execution chamber. A witness room when the execution begins. And through the glass they see Loeb being carried into the room by Rhino before he pushed the man to the floor.
"Here is the man you request." Said Rhino.
"Thank you Rhino." Said Black Mask. Just in time as they see a man leaving the gas chamber that wears a prisoner outfit. But around his head is bald with around his entire head has the three letters of the month. He also looks significantly overweight but looks still strong. And he has blue eyes. The Calendar Man.
Loeb recovers just enough to see Black Mask before him, with Black Mask having his back towards him. "What's this all about, Sionis? Haven't I always come through for you?" Asked Loeb as Croc and Rhino picks up the man by his arms and forced the man to stand.
Black Mask turns around to face Loeb. "You may have. Gillian. But things have changed. We're starting with a clean slate - and you're not on it." Said Black Mask as he tells this to him.
This shocks Loeb to his core. Croc and Rhino pushed the man into Black Mask goons who are guiding the man into the gas chamber. "What are you talking about? I'm not on it? After all I've done for YOU." Said Lobe befor ethe goons tossed him into the gas chamber and begins to close the door to prevent him from escaping. "You can't do this! I'm the Police Commissioner, dammit!" Said Loeb.
"Oh crap." Said Spider-Man as he and Batman tried to punch the glass to save Loeb. But the glass was just too strong to not even crack.
Loeb begins to pound on the glass in a attempt to free himself. But it was too late. The gas chamber he is stuck in begins to be filled up with deadly gas that makes the man cough. Black Mask looks at the dying man one last time. "Show's over, boys. Let's go." Said Black Mask.
"Agreed. We over stayed our welcome." Said RHino. Croc just slugs one of the goons on the window before following them.
Spider-Man used this chance to break through the glass just as the villains left the room and checks in on Loeb. What he saw terrified him. "No... " Said Spider-Man as he sees the body of Loeb dead on the floor in the gas chamber.
"I'm too late. Commissioner Loeb is dead. Black Mask has a lot to answer for" Said Batman just as the security door opened up and Black Mask goons and a armored goon appeared in the room. "It's the Bat and the Spider! We're never getting out of here!" Said one of the goons.
"We gotta try!?" Said one of the goons trying to punch Batman. But Batman grabs the arm and twisted it to break it before slamming his fist into the goon face to knock him out. The armored thug tries to hit Spider-Man but thanks to Spider-Man quick reflexes, he easily dodges the attacks. Spider-Man then used his webs tied the mobster arms to his sides with his webs before doing a jump spin kick to the armored mobster to knock him to the floor before he punched the goon lights out hard. And then he web the goon to the floor.
The last goon tries to punch Spider-Man. But Spidey easily caught it without looking. He then used his legs to sweep the goons legs to knock him off and then quickly lean onto the ground on his back to kick the mobsters into the air for Batman to jump into the air. And grab the mobsters legs and slam him into the floor hard to knock him out.
"At least we got to vent our anger on these guys." Said Spider-Man as he followed Batman through the door and goes down a corridor before going to another security door. Just before they could get close enough, the room suddenly shaked on the other side like something had crashed into the ground hard. And it caused Batman and Spider-Man to stumbled back a bit.
"What the heck was that?" Asked Spidey out loud. They walked through the door where there is a metal fence that is broken that leads to some stairs that leads to the roof. They look upwards as they hear some voices just above them.
"I told you to grab the memory card" Said Black Mask voice from above.
"You wanted it smashed, so I smashed it!" Came another voice that was assumed to be Killer Croc's. The two of them look back drone, the same one Batman saw before, is destroyed on the ground. Batman take this chance to get close to the damage drone and crouches down to open it up and reveal a memory card and then picks it up.
"At least we don't have to worry about it anymore comrade Black Mask. The drone is totally damaged." Said Rhino.
"It had better be, or the next thing that gets smashed WILL BE YOUR FACE!" Shouted Black Mask. Croc and Rhino both growl at Black Mask and then everything is quiet until they hear a helicopter in the distance.
"Oh great... from the sounds of it they have a escape plan to get out of here. How is that memory card?" Asked Spider-Man as he see Batman putting the card away into his belt pockets. "The memory card is damaged, but I should be able to recover most of the data back at the Batcave." Said Batman before he grapples onto the highest area of the staircase.
"You what now?" Asked Spider-Man as he jumps from wall to wall to catch up with him.
"Later. Right now, lets go after them." Said Batman as he climbs up a ladder.
"You're the boss." Said Spider-Man.
On the rooftop, there was indeed a helicopter waiting for Black Mask. He walks into the helicopter with some of his guys before it takes off from this prison. After the first one left with Black Mask, a second helicopter lands and picks more of Black Mask's men. Killer Croc is about to follow when he picks up two scents. Because batman and Spider-Man were watching him from close by on a ledge. Rhino almost gets onto the chopper to look at Croc not coming. "Comrade Croc. Lets get going." Said Rhino as he motion his hand to tell Croc to get on.
"No. Go on without me. I am going to handle something first." Said Croc as he motion his hand to tell the pilot to take off.
"If you say so Comrade Croc." Said Rhino as he understands his comrade wish and gets onto the helicopter. Croc looks at Rhino managing to get into the helicopter as it flies away. Just in time as he notice the two heroes scent he picked up are here on this rooftop with him.
"Thought I caught your scents" He said over his shoulder while walking towards a propane tank.
"I know I caught yours." Said Batman.
"Yeah, when's the last time you took a bath? Or do you only take baths in a sewers'?" Spidey asked as he mocks Killer Crock by having his hands wave near his face to pretend he smells something bad from Croc.
Croc didn't like that taunt Spider-Man just said. He gets close to one of the propane tanks and then it off the ground and threw it at the two of them, but the two heroes managed to duck under it just in time. The tank exploded once it hit the wall leaving a fiery mess behind them. Making Batman cape flaps in the explosion wind. Croc snarls at the two heroes as said heroes stand up and are ready to fight Croc with narrowed eyes.
Croc makes a gesture for the heroes to come at him while laughing. Batman runs up to him first and hits Croc with his cape a bunch of times. And then Spider-Man fires a web to web up Croc face to blind him for a while. This leaves Batman the chance to strike into Croc chest a few times. And then climbs up Croc to grab his face and slam it into the ground hard and Batman rolls back away. Croc recovers and gets back on his feet and tears off the web on his face to see again.
"Let's add some fuel to this fight. Says Croc as jumps over to a propane tank and begins to rip it off its hinges and holds it just above his head. Just as he does this a helicopter flies over the rooftop and opens its doors to brings in Black Mask's men.
"Hey! Party crashers. The worst kind. I will handle these party crashers. Can you handle scaly over there?" Asked Spider-Man as he looks at Batman.
"Yes." Said Batman.
"Good. Then lets go!" Said Spider-Man as he web launched himself at two of the goons to punched them into the face. And then webs them up to make sure they won't get back up. Batman at the same time throws a Batarang at the tank Croc is holding to make it explode. He will hit Croc in the face again with his cape and does some hard fast punches. He tries to grab his face again, but Croc grab him and throws him to the ground. From there, Croc charged at Batman to try to bite his face off with Batman putting every strength he has to at least push Croc face away from him.
"Hey! Biting others is not good for your teeth!" Said Spidey as he comes in to kick the villain the face to stun him. Batman used this chance to punch him and then headbutted him hard. And then launched kicked himself at Croc in the face before rolling away in time to avoid a punch by Croc. Croc then feels a web attached to his chest as he sees Spider-Man launching himself at Croc to do a uppercut kick at Croc chin. This makes Croc take a couple steps back before spitting out spit onto the snow ground.
He jumps back to the other two remaining propane tanks and begins to rip off the next one. Spider-Man sees the next way of Black Mask goons from a chopper. But Spider-Man acted quickly and webs the goons before they could even touched the ground and use the web line to slam them into one of the gate fences on the rooftop. Batman then used the Batarang to throw it at the tank Croc is holding to make it explode and do some damage. Croc recovers and he sees Spider-Man and this time he charges and pounces on him this time. And Spider-Man used his feet to push against the villain chest to push him back as best as he could while having his hands on the Croc face to stop him from biting his face off.
"Phew... you got a horrible smell from your mouth. Have you ever heard of breath mints pall? And when was the last time you clean your teeth?" Asked Spider-Man as he makes a joke as Croc face gets way too close for comfort. Batman saved Spidey just in time by kicking Croc in the face. OF which Spidey used this chance to jump kick in Croc face and then jump from Croc chest to jump near Batman.
Croc recovers and jumps near another propane tank. "Time to take this seriously." Croc says as he ribs it off the ground and was about to toss it but Batman throws his Batarang at it to make it exploded. This causes to make Croc be stunned. Batman charges and does a kick him in the chin and does a backflip at the same time. Spidey then does the finished touches and jump kicks into Croc chest to make him be pushed back up against a gate fence and gets his arms stuck in it as the gate and slightly comes off from the other fences and dangles just above the sea.
Croc tries to escape and free himself but he is trapped. He snarls at the heroes just as Batman gets on top of Croc with Spider-Man holding onto the gate fence so it won't fall off just yet. "Your boss. Where's he going?" Batman says and strikes Croc in the face hard. Of which is causing the gate to shake.
"Only boss a'me, is me." Croc says earning another strike from Batman again, and of which makes the gate to be shaking a bit more.
"You want teeth, I want answers!" He says as he strikes Croc for a third time of which makes the gate shake a bit more.
"Dude... you are quite literally just over a drop that would most likely kill you if this gate snaps off. So if you have any info to spill, then say it before it is too late." Said Spider-Man as he tells Croc this and points downwards a bit.
Croc follows the direction he is pointing and looks over his shoulder. He does see that it is a big drop to the waters below and sees some rocks there as well. Not wanting to die, he will at least give them a warning for tonight. "Wait till Black Mask's assassins gets through with the two of you." He warns them
"What assassins?!" Batman shouts and punches Croc again and the gate shakes and loosens up more and is almost on the verge of snapping off.
Crock recovers from the punch and he begins to laugh out loud before he looks at them. "Whoever wins is gonna be famous AND rich." He said before Batman strikes him for a final time, making Croc go unconscious from all the punches and the beating he received.
"Okay... but at least we know one thing for sure for this guy here." Said Spider-Man
"At least we know he won't be ugly." Batman said as he stood over him.
They two of them then grabbed his legs and begins to pull him off the gate just as it snaps off and falls into the ocean. As they finished getting Croc out of harms way, the GCPD arrived and armed their guns at them. One of the cops is among them that was seen on the news. He has brown combed hair and wears glasses. He has a green suit with a black tie around his neck. He has a police radio, attached to the near the top left of his suit. And he has a blue bullet proof vest on with white letters that say 'GCPD' on it. And has a blue winter jacket with the American flag on the right sleeve. He wears a belt around his brown pants with his police badge on the right side of the belt and also has his holder for his gun. And has black shoes. James Gordon.
"Freeze!" Said one of the cops.
The shine the spot lights on them of which make a Spider-Man and Batman use a arm to cover their faces.
"Hold it right there." Said one of the cops. He has a blue jacket and a white shirt underneath it. Of which he has a chain with a police badge around his neck. And he has short black hair and brown eyes. And he has a black belt around his waist and grey pants and shoes. This man name is Harvey Bullock
Batman pressed a button on his gauntlet and then lowers his arm after getting use to the sudden bright lights. Spider-Man looks at Batman with a confused look. "Have any ideas on how to get out of here?" Asked Spider-Man as they both walk tot he edge of the rooftop.
"Just one. just follow my lead." Said Batman.
"I'm taking you both in." Said Gordon.
"Not tonight." Said Batman.
"Yeah. Have to do a rain check on that." Said Spider-Man.
Just as he said that, Batman jumps off the edge of the rooftop followed by Spider-Man. The cops are shocked and rushed to the edge of the roof to see what happened to them. Only see them okay and are on the Batwing with Batman getting into the cockpit seat and Spidery having to get in behind him. They see the Batwing positioned towards them and are still pointing their guns at it. They then see the Batwing take off and flies away from the prison. After which, they lower their arms down after seeing them escaping.
"No such thing as a Bat Man, huh?" asked Bullock as he looked at Gordon. Only to see him ignoring him and just staring off into the direction of where the Batwing took. He wonders though what will happen tonight
