Gotham

Episode 6 - Damsel In Distress

A/N: hope you enjoy, I'm going to fit as much drama and action into this as possible!!

Bruce Wayne tried to peel his open even though he struggled. Bruce rotated his body to the other side of the bed where the body of Vicki Vale laid. "Morning handsome" she said, gazing into his eyes. Bruce grinned before kissing her on the cheek. "Last night was incredible!" Bruce said.

"You don't have to tell me" Vicki responded.

Bruce and Vicki rose from their feet and began getting dressed before heading to Gotham High.

Jonathan Crane glanced at the floor as he made his way to the Iceberg Club where Edward Nygma, Oswald Cobblepot and Victor Fries resided. "Why the sad face Crane, does someone need a riddle to cheer them up?!" Eddie asked, clicking his fingers together, hoping for a yes.

"Do one Eddie! I'm not in the mood!" Jon responded, heading over to his side of the office where Victor sat.

Victor removed his crimson coloured shades from his eyes and sighed heavily before turning to face Jonathan. "May I dare ask?".

"If you have to. I saw Bruce and Vicki flirting with each other last week". Victor looked confused.

"Isn't that a good think? Won't that mean Barbara's available?" Victor questioned. Jonathan rubbed his temples before replying. "Well yes but she looked upset, she must really have fallen for him, stupid billionaire!" Jonathan yelled, launching his papers and files off of his desk.

Victor rose to his feet just as Oswald and Edward left. "Don't you see! This the perfect opportunity! If you get Bruce away from the school than you can have your chance with Barbara!". Jonathan grinned. He had the perfect idea on how to get Bruce away from the school...

Bruce Wayne and Vicki Vale embraced Gotham High hand in hand. They had only been dating for a little under a week but they took full advantage of what came with their relationship. Bruce smirked at the envious boys who sauntered past the couple. Selina Kyle and Pamela Isley slammed their locker doors shut just in time to see the fledgling couple. "Cute isn't it?" Pamela asked out loud. Selina rolled her eyes.

"He's just a billionaire I don't get what the big deal is!" She said in a huff before storming off.

Matt Hagen and Jonathan Crane sauntered down the hall, spotting the new couple. "It's good seeing people in love now a day's don't you think?" Matt queried, his hands were covered in clay. Jonathan couldn't help but stare at Bruce. "Yeah sure" Jon muttered.

"Do you get the feeling that everybody's staring at us?" Vicki asked as she and Bruce entered the canteen.

"Yeah, but it's a good feeling" Bruce said before kissing her.

Barbara Gordon and Harvey Dent sat on a small round table discussing their homework, that is until they spotted the new couple. "Who would've thought, a super hot girl and Bruce!" Harvey said, laughing at his friend's relationship. Barbara bit her lip nervously as the uncomfortable feeling she had been getting lately had returned. "He's a billionaire, what did you expect?" Barbara rhetorically said in response.

Jonathan Crane waved goodbye to Matt before heading to the Iceberg Club. Jon thoroughly scanned the entire office including the two small rooms that came off of the office. Once Jon realised the coast was clear he went to the back of the office and opened a gigantic metallic cupboard which revealed a huge brown suit which contained a golden gauntlet on it's wrist. "Let's see you upset Barbara this time!" Jon said to himself as prepared to dress himself into the suit.

Edward Nygma piled into the Iceberg before stopping once he witnessed Jonathan. "Jon? What are you doing?" Eddie asked curiously, not knowing whether to run. Once Jon had fully dressed himself he responded. "I'm teaching Bruce Wayne a lesson, then I'm going to have Barbara all to myself!". Eddie didn't like the sound of that.

"Jon I can't let you do this".

"You don't have a choice!" Jon replied, he lifted up the golden gauntlet and fired a ray of dirty smoke which caused Eddie to fall unconscious....

Bruce Wayne, Vicki Vale, Barbara Gordon, Harvey Dent, Selina Kyle and Victor Fries sauntered around chatting in the cafeteria when suddenly the giant arch window smashed and a giant robot looking figure entered the hall. "Not again!" Bruce quietly muttered to himself. Everyone screamed in terror and started to run in different directions. "Hey buddy! If you think your ruining my school you've got another thing coming!" Selina yelled. Suddenly the young acrobat launched herself on one of the lunch tables and propelled herself in the air before scissor kicking the robotic figure (Jonathan) in the face. "Back away!" Jon yelled before back handing Selina which sent her flying in a different direction.

Jon stuck his hand out and gripped on to Vicki before jumping out of the school with her in his hand. "Vicki!" Bruce yelled.

"Don't worry Bruce, we'll get her back" Harvey said, reassuring his friend. Bruce said nothing but ran to his locker and started to dress into his alternate persona; Batman.

Jonathan Crane ran as fast as he could, trying not to slow down. Vicki was still gripped tight in his arm, Jon ran past the Gotham Police Department where hundreds of police officers screeched at the sight. Commissioner Jim Gordon noticed Jon's hostage and immediately took action, chasing after him.

"Oh great!" Jon muttered to himself.

"Stop!" Jim yelled. Jon didn't. He kept running further into Gotham. Soon Jonathan came across Ace Chemicals, he forged an idea. Jon climbed to the very top of Ace Chemicals and threatened to drop Vicki if Jim and the rest of the officers moved a step closer.

Suddenly everyone in the city gasped as The Hooded Hero; Batman swung onto the scene. "That's enough Jon! Let the girl go!" Batman instructed. Vicki's heart was pounding as the outcome to this situation was too unpredictable. "If you insist" Jonathan said with a grin and suddenly he let go of Vicki.

"NO!" Batman yelled, he leapt forward, roundhouse kicked Jon and clutched onto Vicki's hand. Jonathan rose to his feet. "Ready, one two three!" Bruce swung Vicki round who kicked Jon in the stomach.

"Thank you so much!" Vicki said, hugging the caped crusader.

"Just doing my job!" Batman responded. After getting an unconscious Jon piled in the back of a police truck, Batman escorted Vicki back to Gotham High before leaving to Wayne Manor.

Victor Fries and Matt Hagen headed to the Iceberg where they heard a shriek coming from the back closet. "Did you hear that?" Matt asked. Victor nodded in response. They ripped open the closet which revealed; Edward Nygma.
