Emissary of Death (Gotham Fanfic)

Chapter Five

"I told you once Lincoln I'm gonna tell you again. Your gonna have to give the girl back," Mooney explained as she started walking away from Lincoln, but Lincoln followed her. Mooney sat down with the wine in her hand and sat back looking at Elijah. "They're gonna send the SWAT team soon, and you kids will be in major trouble."

"But there has to be another way Mooney," Lincoln begged while Mooney took a sip of her drink. "I can tell that I've felt something with her. I recognize her from when we were young but she never noticed me, but now, I can see that she doesn't want to leave me. But I need help from you because they can't find her." Mooney gave him a look, then set down her glass.

"I'm gonna tell you what I exactly told your father," he sat down in a chair listening. "Run away. You're gonna have to fake a death and I can help you with that. But I need you, to do me a certain, favor." Lincoln rolled his eyes at her.

"I'm not gonna give you money Fish I-"

"I don't want money. I've got plenty of it," Lincoln was shocked by her words. Never once in a lifetime of knowing her, did he hear she didn't want money. Because that's the only thing she cares about. "I want the girl, Andy, to do something for me. It's just a little task that's all." She dug through her purse, then took out a black pistol and handed it to Lincoln, where he just sat there eyes wide. "I want her to kill someone she hates most, it can be anyone, but the person has to be a person, where she can only see loathe in him or her."

"She'll get caught, you know that right?" Lincoln protested, but Mooney nodded at the gun, a smirk still laying on her face. Lincoln knew he needed to do this for him, but mostly for her. Because he knows he needs to keep her alive and safe. "And when she does, will you help us?"

"I will Lincoln," Mooney drank the last of her wine, then got up from her chair. "I remember when your father came in here, begging for me to give more money. All he had to do was throw your mother in the chemicals, and everything would be better. But, I knew he never wanted his son to become the monster. So he promised not to do it to you, and now your here."

"You know what we're doing is stupid right?" He got up to leave soon, but turned to see her nodding her head slowly. "You'll get to meet her soon." Then he turned around, and walked with the gun.

Andy was up and eating anything by how hungry she got. The door opened, revealing Lincoln coming in. She finished her snack then smiled at him.

"Hey. Where were you?" She asked, but then looked down to see a black pistol in his right hand. She glanced up at him, and he seemed to looke guilty.

"I need to tell you something Andy," he closed the door behind him and took his jacket off. He held up the gun for her to grab, and so she did. "I can help us find a better way. Gotham is not safe for you here, and I met someone who can help us escape here."

"Wait so you wanna leave Gotham?" Andy furrowed her eyebrows. "Lincoln, I have a job down here. And they could catch us, I may say sure lets go, but I've only known you for a week."

"But Andy, I remember what it was like for you. I saw you down in that alley way, and I knew that you need training to know to fight back. And plus, like I said Gotham is not safe here for you."

"I don't know Lincoln. Besides, do you even think that you'll trust whoever promised you this?"

"I trusted my life with this person. And what she's saying is true," Andy felt a pang of jealousy when she heard the word "she". "Do you what to hear it?" Andy sighed, knowing she should know, and she really did want to know, so she just nodded her head. "Is there anyone in this town that you hate?" Andy suddenly thought of Michelle. But why Michelle? She remembers how her and Michelle would fight a lot, and Andy could feel Michelle was keeping her a secret from something her parents kept.

"I do...her name is...Michelle," then Andy felt she didn't regret what she said. "But, I don't want to kill her. She's keeping something from me and I need to know what it is. Maybe, I can possibly...get her?" Lincoln nodded his head in agreement, then she took the gun and stuffed it in her gun holder on her belt.

"Do you know where she is? Do you need help?" Andy turned while she was about to walk out, and grabbed her black hoodie.

"I might need some help. But they can't see your face," she said, and Lincoln grabbed a grey hoodie and put the hood over him. She let him go out first, then secretly stole a tazer on the way.

Lincoln kept Andy close while they walked through the corridors of the glass building Michelle worked at. While they were walking, Andy spotted strawberry blonde hair in the corner of her eye, and recognized it was Michelle walking towards and elevator. She dragged Lincoln with her and they followed her in the elevator. The doors opened and they both walked in, only just the three of them. Michelle saw the two people in front of her, and they both took their hoods off. She suddenly recognized that Andy was right in front of her.

"Andy?" She mumbled. Andy turned around revealing her face, and Michelle gasped by how different she looked. She had muscle in her bones, and the men next to her turned around facing her. Andy pushed a button making the elevator stop, and Lincoln covered her mouth. Andy grabbed the tazer, and Michelle whimpered but Lincoln pressed his hand harder against her mouth so no one would hear. The tazer shocked Michelle, making her body twitch in a weird way, and then her eyes suddenly closed shut, meaning she passed out. The elevator heads down towards the parking lot, and Lincoln carries Michelle in his arms.

We run through, finding the white van we entered in parked right outside. Andy looks around for cameras, and there spot one hanging by the elevator, and she does her best and takes the gun she has and shoots it. Gordon may see her, but it's about time. She turns and gets in the van with Lincoln and they both drive off to an abandoned storage house by the water.

Phones were ringing around through the department, and Gordon raced through the crowds. He didn't know what was going on, being late from his girlfriend, he wasn't on time. He looked to see Harvey and he had a folder in his left hand, and seemed to be racing towards Gordon.

"Got a call from the Public, they found something on their camera," Harvey handed Gordon the folder, and Gordon examined it, reading through the papers inside. He saw Michelle's full name, and a picture of her and her other sources of identity. "Michelle Lillian Isley. She works in the public with the Mayer, and she is said to be missing."

"Is that what the footage showed?" Harvey walked to his desk with Gordon behind him, and Harvey pulled up the footage from 4 hours ago. Harvey fast forward it, showing Michelle walking towards an elevator with 2 hooded figures behind her. Harvey fast forwards again, and pauses it where it's in the parking lot.

"Right there," Harvey pointed a finger at the paused footage, revealing a familiar face Gordon suddenly recognized. He could feel Andy's eyes staring him down from many ways away. She had bags under her eyes, like she hadn't slept in weeks or months. She also looked different by looking oddly thin. "There she is."
