CHAPTER SEVEN: RECKONING
UPON US

🦇

MEDICAL FACILITY — MORGUE

"B-Barbara, I have horrible news to share with you..." Batman spoke into his earpiece somberly.

Barbara is seated in her wheelchair and at her workstation while listening intently to Batman over the speakers.

"Yes, Batman? What's going on? Are you okay?" Barbara spoke worriedly.

"I-I'm so sorry—" Batman said and was instantly cut off.

Then a loud ear-piercing noise screeches out into the large speakers of Oracle's high-tech workstation and she then takes off her headphones hastily as the irritating noise interrupts the communication between Batman and Barbara Gordon.

"What the fuck?!" Barbara called out both annoyed and perplexed as she then saw static white noise across all of her holographic screens.

She tries to fix her setup and types onto the keyboard so that she can get back control of her equipment, but nothing seems to work as the high tech looks to be skillfully hacked from an outside source.

Back at the Morgue Batman is still mourning the deaths of Jim and Sarah Gordon as he's silently crying to himself.

"Oooh, Batman..." Scarecrow taunted once again and his dreadful shadow was lurking behind the Dark Knight.

Batman feels the goosebumps on his skin and quickly turns toward the looming danger. He sees at the far end of the hallway Scarecrow who is currently standing there menacingly while holding a sharp scythe and blocking the exit out of this hellish nightmare.

"Tell me, Batman. What is it that you're currently seeing right now? I bet it's something very unsettling and frightful." Scarecrow spoke reveling in Batman's fear.

Batman wipes his tears and gets up off the floor. He then scowls at the Master of Fear and speaks with animosity. "You're gonna pay for this, Crane."

"Ah, I see you still have some fight left in you, Batman. That's very good. I would hate for our little game to end so soon now." Scarecrow spoke in a mocking tone.

"This isn't a game, Crane! Good people died here today! And you're gonna regret ever taking their innocent lives when I'm through with you." Batman threatened.

Scarecrow taunted the Batman even further and motioned his syringe gloves hand towards himself. "Come then, Batman. Teach me a lesson that I'll never forget...HAHAHA!"
