--- Arkham Asylum ---
BOOM!
The deafening explosion could be heard all throught Arkham Asylum. This was exactly what The Joker had been waiting for. He sat in the pitch blackness of his cell with an evil grin on his face. Outside the cell door, chaos ensued and nurses, doctors and guards rushed about frantically. Their voices were unclear as they ran about the hallways yelling and screaming. Now gunshots could be heard from all around. The screams and cries of the employees grew louder and louder. Soon, the smell of fire and smoke filled the already thick air of Arkham. A few minutes went by before voices familiar voices could be heard on the other side of the door. Suddenly, what sounded like an extremely large saw had been started and now, showers of sparks flew from the edge of the door as it was being cut through. The sparks lit the dark room Joker slowly rose to his feet. The noise from the saw faded away as the heavy metal door fell from its from with a loud bang ont the floor. Light from the hallway filled the dark room. Two men in clown masks stepped through the doorway and approached Joker. One of the men threw a 9mm handgun at the feet of Joker. As he bent over and picked it up, one of the masked men spoke.
"Sorry we're late sir, we had trouble..." BANG! Joker shot the masked men right in the head with the gun he was given. Blood showered Joker and the other man. Looking down at the fallen body of his partner, the other masked man began laughing.
"Finally somebody did it," the man began. "He was really starting to annoy..." BANG! Joker put another bullet in his head. Blood once again showered Joker as the man's limp body fell to the ground.
"Oops! Pardon me fellas. HAHAHA!" Joker laughed histerically as he stepped over the two bodies and out into the hallway.
More explosions and gunfire could be heard in the distance. Black smoke was now streaming into the C-Wing hallway as Joker walked down it. The screams echoed from everywhere now. Joker reached the end of the hallway and went through the door. On the other side he saw more masked men standing together and firing guns at the employees. As soon as they spotted Joker, they all stopped firing and turned towards him. He slowly walked toward them.
"Hey boss," one of the started. "What do ya say we hurry up and get the hell outta here?"
Joker approached this man until they were practically nose to nose. His voice was eerie and angry as he spoke. "When I'm good and ready." Joker could now see the fear in the man's eyes through the mask. The masked man nodded in agreement and scurried off past Joker. Joker turned to the rest of the men still standing there. "The rest of you...kill everyone."
--- Gotham City Police Headquarters ---
Jim Gordon sit behind his desk with his feet up enjoying a glass of whiskey. He was planning on leaving early this evening. Maybe spend some time with the wife, take her to dinner. He hadn't decided. But it was after all, an easy day at the office. Only a few calls today: a report of a noise disturbance and the usual whining neighbor was basically all he had to deal with. With Batman protecting the streets of Gotham, his job had become that much easier.
Suddenly, the door to his office swung open with such force, Gordon spilled what was left of the whiskey onto his shirt from the shock. John Moore came rushing in to his office, a look of urgency on his face.
"What the hell is the meaning of this Moore?" Gordon demanded as he wiped his shirt with a paper towel. Gordon looked up at Moore's face and saw the intense seriousness in it. "What's happend?"
"Sir, something's happend sir!" Moore spoke quickly. "There's been a break out up at Arkham sir! Employees are reporting men in masks have broken in and are shooting up the place. One of the inmates has escaped during the ruckess."
"Well what the hell are we waiting for!" Gordon grabbed his jacket from his chair and started for the door. "Get every available unit up to Arkham ASAP! And I want an update on the esacaped inmate so we can send a squad after him! Let's go!"
Before Gordon exited the room, Moore called spoke again. "Sir, we already have an update for you."
"Well, who is it then?"
"Its... Its Joker sir."
With this news, a look of horror spread across the face of Jim Gordon.
--- Arkham Asylum: Staff Room ---
"Well well well. Doctor Carlson, how lovely to see you again." The Joker stared into the eys of Doctor Carlson and could see how terrified he was. Joker and his men had rounded up the remaining employees and brought them to the staff room. There they sat, all tied up in a circle together, their mouths taped shut. Doctor Carlson tried talking, but only grunts could be heard from behind the tape. "What's that? You think I'm crazy? Well now thats not...very nice." Joker grinned at the Doctor beforebacking away. "Douse 'em boys!"
Five of the Joker's men walked forward carrying big gallon cans filled with gasoline. One by one they each emptied the contents of the cans all over the employees. The scent of gasoline now filled the room. Joker now wore a sadistic smile on his face.
"You see Doctor, I've been doing alot of thinking over the past three years. And Ummm, I've come to a conclusion." Joker now knelt beside Doctor Carlson and whispered in his ear, "Maybe I am a little crazy." Joker backed away again and began laughing histerically while shooting his gun into the ceiling and walls. Then slowly, Joker and his men exited the room.
Doctor Carlson look on in terror. Soon the room was empty except for the bound employees. It was extremly hard to breath with the smoke and gas scent thick in the hair. His eyes burned and his head throbbed painfully. Doctor Carlson assumed they were gone and struggled to free himself from the rope that bound him. Just then, Joker's evil laugh could be heard from the hallway. Doctor Carlson's eyes went wide with horror as he watched a lit zippo lighter come flying through the doorway and right into his lap.
Joker walked towards the exit of Arkham Asylum with the remainder of his men following close behind, listening to the moans and cries of the burning employees. "Like music to my ears," he said to himself.
They reached the giant entrance door and exited the building. The night was cool and damp. Joker felt good to finely be free again. Free to do as he pleased. By morning, all of Gotham would know of his escape and terror would spread throughout the city once again. It was time to finish what he had started. It was time bring about the end of the Batman.
"Hey boss, what are we gonna do now?" One of the men asked.
"I have business to attend to, people to meet," Joker replied with a grin on his face, "A city to destroy."
With that, Joker walked off into the night.
