Riddle Room *completed*

Chapter Eight

PICTURE OF OLIVE DECK ABOVE WHO IS PLAYED BY EMILY RUDD

I look both ways before ascending into the dark, deserted corridor in search for Edward and Jonathan. To say it was creepy would be an understatement with hardly any light and the usual blood and scratches that paint arkhams walls.

/Twenty Minutes Later/

I am becoming very frustrated at this point, I have already searched Arkham East, Intensive treatment and the gardens but still no sign of Edward or Johnathan. I suppose the Medical Facility is the next place to search. Running in the shadows I sneak past all the inmates who could give my position away to batman. Assuming he is here which is likely because Joker has gained control and the Asylum staff can't possibly withhold to their antics.

I climb the ivy that is growing along the back wall to one of the open windows on the third floor which, thankfully, has been left open. Before checking that no one is around I lunge into the dark building. A bed with thick, leather belts, coated with blood is in the centre with a metal cage which I assume is to go around the head. A small operating table is next to it, spattered with more blood and surgical tools that look very unhygienic. Black and white tiles are on the wall, floor and ceiling with a single globe, swaying side to side that emits a small glow.

Basically this room is terrifying. My heart beat increases as I reach down to grab hold of my machete, mens voices start talking on the other side of the door. ''Boys this is the place Joker wanted the last bomb!' One of their voices yells, opening the door. I duck down and roll under the surgical bed, hoping that they don't find me. I don't think i'm powerful enough to engage in combat with a group of built men and if I get caught, who knows what they'll do to me.

7 pairs of feet then walk into the room and over to the surgical table that is right next to me.  Okay if they find me in screwed 'Put it right here, Gus.' the same voice yells and walks over to a larger table where large needles, filled with an array of colours are kept. The bomb makes a thud as it makes contact with the floor and if I thought I was going to be in trouble before, i'm worse off now.

The bomb is filled with Jokers signature explosive gel, and it is detonated remotely due to the Bluetooth usb, sticking out of the side. There is no way I can disarm it before I am blown to pieces. 'Boss the last bomb is set and ready to go.' a different voice speaks into a walkie-talkie. 'Good now you have 10 seconds before I detonate it!' Joker laughs on the other one. A count down begins. 10 All his workers start panicking as well as myself but I cant reveal myself until they are gone.

9 'Wait what! How could you do this to us we had a deal!' the first voice yells but only to be pulled by his colleagues who run to the door. 8 They are never going to make it, seeing as we are on the third floor so my only way of escape is through the window. 7

6 I swear my heart is going to burst out of my chest as I slide from my hiding place and onto the floor. 5  Only a few of his men remain in the room 4  and are shocked to see me 3 but have bigger issues on their minds. 2  I've never ever been this scared in my life as I run toward the window, grappling hook in hand. 1 fuck  I jump face first as the building behind me explodes and is engulfed in flames.

The dark, hard alleyway below is coming closer by the second so I click my grappling hook, only to discover that while they had my weapon they placed a metal band around the activation button so its no use until its removed. The last thing I hear as I fall to my doom are my piercing screams and a man screaming 'NOOOOOOOOO!'
