Batman and Robin: Arkham knight

Part 7 : A new plan

" After leaving Stagg's airship, Batman and Robin quickly flew to the Oracle's signal .

It was still raining heavily , And the air was foggy . it was really difficult to look around when suddenly a voice was heard... it was him... he was back again and was flying right above Batman and Robin's head. This time Batman activated his grapple gun again. and went from the edge of the building to another and again rode on the monster's back...

He roared again and fell to the ground, Robin quickly gave the antidote to Batman and Batman injected it into Man Bat , but The monster pushed both of them aside twice and jumped into the sky and disappeared . "

" So why didn't it work? "

Robin asked his mentor

" Apparently, the amount we injected to him that wasn't enough, so we have to take it together and then inject the antidote. "

" But... But I'm afraid of him. "

" Being afraid is a natural reaction, but being brave is not, so be brave . "

" What do you mean? "

" You will understand in time. Come on , Barbara needs us . "

" Batman then activated the Batmobile's romote control and the two go to that same safehouse in the Chinatown where the Oracle's signal is coming from. "

" As soon as they entered the building, they found Oracle unconscious in her wheelchair in a room, after that Scarecrow appeared on a small television right inside the room. "

" How does it feel Batman ? To lose all your friends in one night? "

" Scarecrow said this and Then some fear toxin is released in the room ... Oracle opens her eyes, but she is faced with something much worse than a nightmare. She immediately takes the gun that was on the table in the room and shoots at Batman and Robin ... "

" Stay away from me! Stay away from me! "

She shouted at them

" Barbara!! it's me, your friend... don't listen to him ...

" Batman screams to warn Barbara but it was useless... "

" Barbara, this is us! Batman and Robin... "

" Robin also tries to make Barbara understand that everything she is seeing is not real, but again to no avail."

" No, I won't let you touch me .. "

" She then points the gun to her head, that's when the Joker ghostly enters the room again and made fingergun and points it to his head . a little while , that's when the sound of the gun is heard. ... Oracle had killed herself. "

" What a pity that you could not save her Batman ... "

" The Scarecrow said this and the television turned off ... Batman fell to his knees and started to cry. Robin immediately hugged him. "

" Sir, what happened? "

" It was Alfred's voice trying to contact Batman . "

" She is gone Alfred . "

" What do you mean ? "

" Barbara . Scarecrow was punishing me, he killed her ... "

" Oh my god.. no.. sir .. we need to do something, we need to focus.. the people of Gotham need you . "

" I should have protected her, Alfred... she is died because of me . "

" Sir, please listen to me, I downloaded the Stagg's files, I found out what Cloudburst is , it's a weapon that's designed by Simon Stagg under the influence of Scarecrow that launched and amplified the effects of Scarecrow's fear toxin . The Cloudburst ran on Stagg Enterprises Nimbus Generators, which amplified the Fear Toxin and disabled any vehicles that lacked a Nimbus Cell ... you need to stop them immediately Sir ... Sir did you hear me ? "

" He heard you , he is just wondering that how he can live with himself from now on ?

" it was Joker ... he said it to Batman and then sits beside him. "

" Master Bruce, please, you must do something . "

Alfred tried to convince Batman

" Oh, don't worry, Brucie, you knew you couldn't save her in time, let Uncle J take control of everything himself, no more bad memories, no more pain, no more fear, scout's honour ! "

" At that moment Batman said only one word"

" Ivy . "

" Oh no ... "

Joker said and then left them .

" Sir ? "

" Alfred , Activate the Batwing and let it scan and locate the Cloudburst, so we can find it sooner . "

" Of course, sir. where are you going ? "

" GCPD . Ivy was resistant to Scarecrow's toxin . "

" Do you think she would help ? "

" She doesn't have a choice ... "

" Batman, what should we do now? "

" It was Robin who asked Batman and looked at him with his hopeful eyes . "

" Robin... " " At that moment, Batman hugs Robin and Robin hugs him again Robin looks at his face and wipes the tears from his cheek . "

" I don't know.. I really don't know this time, but I hope ... I just hope that we can succeed this time . "

" Then Batman slowly gets up from the ground and they move towards GCPD. "

" As soon as they entered, Aaron Cash came to them and asked Batman . "

" Batman ? What happened in that damn airship? "

" Scarecrow took the Cloudburst. "

" I guess it's not good news at all... "

" where is Gordon ? "

" He's still out there, looking for Barbara, I can't contact him, his wireless is off, please tell me you found her ? "

" Cash ... I'm sorry . "

" No . Don't Say that ... "

" We couldn't save her . "

" Well, do you have any idea? "

" If Gordon comes, lock him up. Do not let him go out . "

" Batman finished the conversation with him and then went to the cell where Ivy was kept in . "

" Ivy , I need your help . "

" From where I standing , you need a miracle."

" Why didn't the gas effect you? "

" This time, Poison Ivy was looking at Batman with a special fear and surprise ... "

" You are scared ? "

" You were too , if you saw what disaster is going to happen to Gotham . "

" And I should trust you, why? "

" Because without your help, every plant in Gotham will die . "

" Ivy looked at him again then went to the cell door and Batman opened it for her . "

" About that miracle? "

" I can produce some spores that are resistant to Scarecrow's toxin . "

" They can protect the whole city? "

" I don't think that's possible , we need something stronger . "

" Where are we going now ? "

" The Botanical gardens . Gotham's oldest tree is located there, which holds a lot of power. "

" After that, Batman, Robin, along with Ivy (who was now a member of the team) went to the Botanical gardens on Migani Island.

" They immediately arrived at their destination, after which Batman asked Ivy again . "

" We're here, Ivy, what now ?"

" Ivy got out of her passenger seat and went to the tree . "

" Look at her, what power and greatness she has left in herself. Really Beautiful . "

" Can she protect the city against Cloudburst ? "

" She may be capable and strong, but she cannot do it alone. "

" Well, we will find another one . "

" there is no one like her , not anymore. "

" What happened? "

" What do you think ?! Humans . They cut her branches , stopped her growth and did not let the sunlight reach to her . "

" What if we find the roots? "

" This won't be easy, Batman, , I hope you know what you are doing. "

" He nods slowly and gives Ivy a wireless to keep in touch with him. Then he and Robin move away from the tree and Ivy penetrates into the tree. after a few seconds , tree comes back to life, becoming bigger and stronger than before and preparing herself for the battle ahead. "

" She is awesome! "

This time it was Robin who said this.

" Focus Robin, our goal is to find Cloudburst ."

He then make a call to Alfred.

" Alfred, no word from Cladburst? "

" Not yet, sir, but I have received some news, Two-Face is robbing a bank in Bleake Island, and Firefly is back again, sir, suggest you to return to the Bleake Island. "

" Thanks Alfred, keep in touch with me. "

" Batman hangs up the video call and then they go the firefighters. "

" This time, the goal was clear, to save firefighters from the thugs .

Batman and Robin went to the firefighters one after the another and saved them all .

Firefighter Green is being held just below the Mercy Bridge .

Firefighter Hill is held hostage North of Grand Avenue above the Gotham Mall .

Firefighter Daniell is being held hostage on the edge of Wayne Tower, surrounded by armed thugs.

Firefighter Richardson is being held hostage on a lower level of the Grand Avenue Station .

This time, they all came to the same conclusion, and that was that Firefly had caused this chaos and then attacked the fire stations. Although Batman and Robin had saved half of the firemen, there was still no trace of the Chief of the firemen. Now there was a question in Batman's mind, does the fire Chief had any role in this or not ? "

" After that, Batman informed Alfred that they were moving towards the next challenge of the Riddler , which was located at Elliot's Memorial Hospital. This time, this challenge was no different from the previous challenges, they had to pass many obstacles without being crushed or destroyed, just like the previous race they did in the Falcone train yard.

In every round of the race, the voice of Riddler could be heard, which was constantly trying to distract Batman from driving , he even made each round more difficult than the previous round so that they could not save Catwoman in time. "

" Faster Dark knight! Faster !

Ticktock Detective... Ticktock ... "

" But finally, once again Batman and Robin finally managed to complete this challenge, they went to Catwoman, gave her the right key and once again saved her life. "

" You think you're lucky, don't you? well , you thought wrong! And you're not going to be so lucky in the next part ! my next challenge will be in Gotham Casino, I'll see you soon Detective . Because your friend's life depends on it. Tata ! "

" The Riddler repeats the same words as usual and informs Batman about his next challenge, then Batman and Robin go to Lucius to ask him to install a root finder on the Batmobile before moving on to his next challenge. , so they entered to the Wayne Tower parking garage. "

" Lucius, Open the garage door . "

" I thought you were already here Mr. Wayne, there must have been a glitch in the system, I'll check it immediately. "

" But as soon as they entered the parking garage, the Drones attacked them and blew up the garage. "

" The target was found in the Wayne tower !"

" Mr. Wayne, the cause of the glitch has been determined. We have a number of uninvited guests. "

" Not for long... "

" Robin was ready to shoot at the tanks again and Batman kept avoiding them, and thus with their help they stopped the tanks and blew them up."

" I'll crush you next time, Dark knight! "

" Lucius installed a root finder for the Batmobile, after which the car pulled out of the parking garage and began rooting for Ivy's new plant."

" Ivy, I installed a track root system for the Batmobile. "

" Follow the roots, they'll take you where you need to go... Yes, she is calling louder... you're there ,Batman, I can feel it . You need to free her . "

" A little later, the ground started to shake and a giant plant came out of the ground and started to grow , everything seems right then suddenly something stopped her , some soldiers were aiming and shooting at the plant from a roof . it seems that they were trying to stop her from growing. "

" Ahhhhhhhh ! "

" Ivy ?! "

" They are attacking my plant. Be quick, boys, protect her ! Please ... I can keep her strong but I need time. "

" We will stop them. Just hang on . "

" Batman finished the conversation with Ivy and then went to the soldiers with Robin, they got into a fight. Batman used all his gadgets to stop the soldiers, and Robin kept trying to distract the soldiers and then hit them from behind, on the other hand, Ivy, just like the members of the cheerleader groups start to encouraged them . "

" Be quick guys! Just one more... Take care of her, Batman... please .. "

" Finally, Batman finished the job with a baseball bat, and then both he and Robin looked at the plant, which was now stronger and tougher than before. It was then that Ivy made a video call to Batman and told him : "

" It's done . She is fully mature... she is strong enough against the Scarecrow's toxin . "

" Let's hope that we don't need another one , stay in the gardens Ivy, I'll let you know as soon as I hear anything. "

" Batman hangs up the video call and then he and Robin head to the Riddler's challenge, in the Gotham Casino. "

" Well , well , well Dark knight welcome to my

Riddle trial ! i was waiting for you , perhaps you think you can handle it right Batman? ...we'll see ... "

" The next challenge of the Riddler was summed up in one word "acceleration". Batman had to use his flight techniques to fly to the direction where the big green button was located and press it to be able to go through the next steps. "

" Stay in the car Robin, this challenge will not be an easy one . "

" Batman told Robin and then he activated the jump button on his seat and started flying towards the button and he pressed it then at the end of the same hallway another button was seen. "

" I need more acceleration .. "

" He said to himself and then he got into the car again and pressed the jump button on his seat again and flew again , this time he had to pass from a dangerous and difficult tunnel to reach the button. He closed his wings for a moment and then started flying again and pressed the button. Then he went to the key display screen and showed the correct key to the Catwoman. "

" You better be right, Batman . "

" Catwoman said, hoping that Batman had picked the right key for her, and he did . "

" That's it ! no more. "

" Congratulations Catwoman! now it's time for my newest challenge. "

Riddler said to Catwoman While another door in the orphanage starts to shine. "

" Oh, Eddie seems another door has unlocked what a surprise. "

" Batman then went back to the Batmobile and left the place . "

" Well , Dark Knight, it looks like you have successfully completed another challenge, right? but no ... no ... no ... It's still too soon for the victory do you understand ? and now it is the time . To the Orphanage hero ! it's time to rejoin Catwoman for another trial ."

" After completing the challenge, the Batmobile returned to Bleake Island to meet Firefly again. "

" As soon as they reached to the Bleake Island, they noticed smoke from the Cauldron Fire Station, Batman immediately went to the fire station , use the Power Winch to extinguish the fire just like the last time he did this to stop the Firefly . Firefly looked at Batman from the fire station, and their chase started again. "

" It's not be the last time . "

" He starts shooting flames at the Batmobile again , and Batman keeps moving out of his line of sight to get to him. "

" Gotham will Burn , and you with it ! "

" The Batmobile got close enough to him and Batman jumped to him again, knocking him to the ground before punching him hard in the face again , unfortunately Firefly's rocket fuel is refilled again and he escapes from Batman once again . "

" you can't stop me Batman, Gotham will Burn ! "

" After that, Batman called Alfred and asked him to inform him again if there is any news about Firefly. Then they going after the two face to stop him from robbing the bank . "

" Two-face's crew are robbing a bank of the Chinatown, they are not getting hand of one cent of Gotham's money. "

" As soon as they entered the bank, the siren sounded and two-face's thugs attacked the bank, they broke the windows, ransacked the safe and killed the bank employees. The dead bodies of the employees were in the corners of the bank, and blood and bullets were scattered everywhere. Batman asked Aaron Cash to prevent the thugs from leaving by activating the bank's security system, then he prepared to deal with two-face's thugs by using a remote hacking device, he and Robin hung people upside down, attacked them from behind. Finally Batman threw a man against a pillar with a strong fist. The man passed out and fainted. It was at that moment that the two-face's voice echoed in the bank. "

" Batman, you seem to be busy. Does this not ring a bell? We work together, we clean up Gotham from the crime, right? But in this way, there were people who were killed thanks to you and now they are nothing but a nightmare for others! it will be easy for you , so stay away from the banks, or you'll be sure that you won't survive the next time. "

" After that, Batman again asked Aaron Cash to disable the bank's security system and send a car to arrest the two-face's crew . He then went to the Panessa Studios with Robin to find and located the Cloudburst . They reached to the position right in front of the entrance, where Batman met the Joker again."

" Just think , little Timmy is down there and planning his life with Barbara. what a lucky boy ! "

" Batman asked Batcomputer for permission to enter, the door opened, Batman pressed the elevator button and the elevator led them down, just then Alfred made a video call to Batman and warned him."

" Sir, how are you going to tell Master Drake about Barbara , he'll do anything for her , but what if he does something dangerous this time ?"

" I won't tell him, Alfred, not him, not Dick."

" Sir, I suggest you don't do anything that you will regret later, if any of them find out that she is gone and you didn't tell them, you will lose them forever. "

" Batman ended the video call and then turned to Robin and told him. "

" Don't tell your Brothers about what happened, I will tell them myself later."

" OK . But Alfred is right, they will understand soon, won't they?"

" Batman does not answer him. The elevator stopped moving and they reached their destination where Batman rushed to the Batcomputer to locate the Cloudburst. "

" Good to see you Batman, I hope things aren't that bad out there . "

" It was Red Robin's voice. He was both shocked and happy to see Batman and asked him the first question that came to his mind."

" worse . "

" But there's nothing you can't handle it , right? "

" Batman doesn't give him an answer and starts typing, then suddenly Red Robin turned around and briefly meeting his younger brother , Robin. "

" Hey little buddy ! you Okay?

I am glad to see you . "

" So do I Timmy ! "

He then hugs his brother.

" Psst , call me Red Robin here . "

" Then he winks at him and hugs his brother tightly. "

Let's get back to Batman and Alfred

" Alfred, any news from Cloudburst ?"

" No, sir, the Batwing has searched the Migani and Bleake Islands completely and there is still no sign of the Cloudburst."

" What about the Founders Island? "

" Unfortunately, it's not possible to access this island, sir, this island is heavily guarded by two radar towers and a missile launcher, I suggest you choose a better way to access this island, sir. "

" What if I find the device that controls the radars? Can I access the Founders Island then? "

" It can be work , sir, but this is dangerous, too dangerous. "

" After the end of the call Red Robin (who was still hugging Robin) turned to Batman and asked him. "

" I still have no news from Barbara. You sure that she is Okay? "

" Trust me, Tim , she's fine."

" You know you can't do it alone, Bruce. I can help you . "

" You are helping me better if you find the cure sooner . "

" And what about Poison Ivy?

You know we can't trust her. "

" Don't worry about it . We will take care of the situation. "

" Alright . But if you need help, you know where to find me . "

" Batman leaves with Robin, but before they get on the elevator, the Joker reappears. "

" Oh, HAHAHA! I thought for sure that you are going to tell him ! calm and clean , just like what you did with Gordon, but no, we can crush him later, this is classic. HAHAHAHAHAHA !!!! "

" They then got into the Batmobile and fastened their seat belts . "

" Well, where do we go now? "

" The Pinkney Orphanage . Selina is waiting. After that, we will go to Founders Island . "

" I knew you have feelings for her ! "

" I don't have ."

" you have ! "

" No , I don't have !"

" Yes , you have !

The Bat and The Cat ,

Sitting in a tree,

K-I-S-S-I-N-G. "

" Robin starts singing and laughing , but Batman covered his mouth and informs Alfred that he plans to return to the Ophanage to meet with Selina. "

" I'm going back to the Orphanage, Selina's waiting."

" I can only imagine , what cruel game Mr Nygma has store from you and Ms Kyle. "

" Batman and Robin quickly made their way to the Pinkney Orphanage and suddenly they met with Catwoman again. "

" so you are back I really needed to talk to someone . "

" As I told you, I'll get you out of here. "

" I know it's just ... nothing. Let's get to the next door, okay? "

" After that all of them , made it to the next Riddler's challenge, where they had to deliver an electrical charge to the destination."

" Another one, what's Eddie's problem? "

" Fanatic narcissism, egocentrism and megalomania, crossed with severe obsessive compulsion . "

" Thanks . "

" Don't mention it. "

" Batman and Catwoman would then position themselves and while standing on the buttons, try to deliver the electrical charge to the destination. "

" After finishing the challenge , the Riddler began to speak again . "

" Congratulations guys, the next key is waiting for you. oh but what is this ? Electrical floor?! "

" Then another button lights up a little beyond them. "

" You do it , you still owe me from Arkham City. "

" Catwoman said to Batman and Batman looked at her and then at Robin. "

" Robin, go stand there. "

" But I want to help too ... "

" No need ! You will get hurt again "

" Then the Bat went to the key with the Cat , but as soon as they got close to the it , the robots rushed towards them, this time they had different colors, red and blue. "

" Red ones are mine ! "

" Catwoman excitedly told this to Batman and then went to the robots . "

It didn't take long for Batman to join her .

" Leave the blue ones to me ! "

" And with his help they were able to destroy the robots one by one Finally, they went to the key and once again managed to save Catwoman's life .

When they returned to the main hall, and Riddler was waiting for them. "

" well , how pathetic ! how smug ! just like the 1966 . Dark knight Detective, my next trial is near the Divinity church . Don't be late . "

" Riddler informed Batman and then he said goodbye to Catwoman and promised her that they would meet again.

when he and Robin left the Orphanage , Robin asked his mentor. "

" What is the case of the 1966? "

" When I was younger and of course more inexperienced, I formed a team with Robin ( Dick Grayson ) and Batgirl ( Barbara Gordon ) and we fought with the Joker, Penguin, Catwoman and the Riddler . At that time, they worked together and Gotham was not like this ... It was somewhere similar to Metropolis. "

" It means that the Riddler is betraying his colleague ( Catwoman ) by doing this ? "

" Catwoman is no longer a criminal, everything has changed, Robin . There is no longer in the 60s . "

Then both of them flew to Founders Island.
