Gotham

Episode 10 - Arkham Asylum

A/N: Oooh three villains this episode!!! Guess who they are???????.......

Professor Kirk Langstrom had now been positioned as the teacher of Class 9. Class 9 had had four teachers already this year. With the arrest of Matt Hagen, Jonathan Crane and Bane, each teacher had left, traumatised from the abuse they received from the students.

Kirk was aware of the danger that Class 9 could bring him, but he was prepared for it. The Professor approached his class with a huge grin on his face, before entering. "Good morning, I'm Professor Langstrom, you can call me that or sir!" The Professor explained. Barbara, Harvey and Eddie politely stood up to greet him whilst others like Jay, Waylon and Harley simply ignored his mere existence.

"As its our first day together I've organised a trip...To Arkham Asylum!" The Professor announced. Everyone gasped. Nearly everyone was excited to go.

"Did you hear that Harley?! We're going home!" Jay said, smothering Harley in hugs and kisses. Selina rolled her eyes. Even Barbara was ecstatic to go. It meant she could study for her upcoming psychology exam. Only Bruce was terrified. After all he was responsible for dozens of the inmates imprisonment. Well, Batman was.

"So, when do we leave?" Pamela Isley asked, she had been sent to Arkham a few times. She hated every minute she spent there, but she couldn't think of anywhere better to attend than Arkham. It was like a second home for half of Gotham City! "We leave now" Kirk responded.

"First a head count. We have...Oswald Cobblepot, Harvey Dent, Victor Fries, Barbara Gordon, Pamela Isley, Waylon Jones, Selina Kyle, Edward Nygma, Jay Napier, Harley Quinn, Vicki Vale and Bruce Wayne" Langstrom read out. (Notice how I said their names in alphabetical order???!)

As soon as the minibus pulled up outside the Asylum, everyone who had never been there gasped. "This place looks awful!" Vicki said, shaking her head at the crumbling and depressing looking building.

"I don't dis your house do I? No i thought so!" Jay said, becoming defensive about the Asylum. Several guards safely directed Kirk and the students through the entrance where they were greeted by the Warden, Quincy Sharp. "Good afternoon, how you doing?, right I recognise some of you that have been here before, but those who haven't, I don't expect to see you anytime soon!" Quincy said, before heading off to his office.

"That guy gives me the creeps!" Harvey said.

"Trust me, he's not that bad" Pam said, comforting Harvey. Harvey smiled in response.

The Professor directed the students through the halls of The Asylum. "Look! It's Waylon!" The surprising voice of Bane said. Bane leapt forward in his cell. "Hey Buddy!" He said, again. Waylon smiled at his friend.

"That's enough now Waylon" The Professor said, ushering Waylon away from Bane.

Bane growled. "I will get out of here! And when I do, I'm going after The Batman!" Bane yelled. Bruce shuddered at the thought of Bane escaping. Bane was probably the most fiercest enemies he as Batman had faced, he certainly didn't want to suit up for that again any time soon.

Oswald and Edward chased each other all across the Asylum. Eddie back flipped towards a control panel where he accidentally fell on a switch. "Ed, what did you do?!" Oswald asked when he suddenly noticed the cell doors of the asylum began to rise. Bruce and the rest of the students stared wide eyed as the inmates began to break free.

"Warden do something!" Selina begged. Quincy took his cigarette out of his mouth ready to reply. "Get your students to Stop them from leaving as much as possible! If you don't, I'm suing your god damn school for setting them free!" Sharp said. Kirk gasped. Everyone knew what they had to do.

Bruce suddenly felt faint as Matt Hagen and Bane were set free, along with others he had faced before. Jay and Harley were first to act. Jay started rapidly punching as many inmates as he could. Harley found a crowbar laying in one of the empty cells and began hitting as many inmates possible. "Take that you bastards! I'm the Queen of Crime!" She said.

Selina Kyle leapt from table to table and began using her karate skills to scissor kick a pasty gothic inmate. Edward and Oswald started to go against Matt but failed. Matt shot a clay like tentacle which trapped the duo against the Asylum walls. "HELP!" Edward and Oswald cried in unison. Bruce helplessly watched his classmates fall under attack. Bane had successfully knocked Professor Langstrom and The Warden unconscious whilst a spiky read headed female inmate had mildly injured Selina and Harley with her hydrokinetic abilities.

"Harvey, get Barbara and Vicki somewhere safe, keep an eye on The Professor as well!" Bruce ordered. Harvey nodded.

Bruce dodged a few acrobatic inmates as well as one pyrokinetic male. "Guys over here!" Bruce said, indicating towards Pamela, Jay and Waylon. The trio dashed towards Bruce. "What do you want billionaire boy?" Jay asked.

"I have an idea on how to stop the inmates" Bruce responded. Pamela and Waylon seemed willing, Jay didn't. "I work alone pal!" Jay stated. Bruce sighed.

"I could just get Matt to tear you apart!" Pamela said, grinning. Jay was now on board.

Bruce, Pamela, Waylon and Jay split up, activating Bruce's plan. Waylon began throwing himself at as many inmates as possible, his goliath sized fists were the key to his success. Waylon managed to tear Matt off of Eddie and Oswald and launched him into the nearest cell possible. "Nobody messes with the Crocodile!" Waylon yelled.

Pamela began unleashing her plants against the many inmates in the Asylum. Multiple plant like tentacles wrapped round the inmates and then proceeded to launch them in the cells around the Asylum. Pamela's plants struggled slightly with Bane's capture but managed it anyway. When Pam had finished, Jay had activated the button that trapped the inmates once more.

"Nice work".

After a long day at the Asylum Vicki Vale had decided to go see Bruce at Wayne Manor. "Hey Vick, what are you doing here?" Bruce Wayne asked. Vicki sighed, how was she going to tell him?

"Look, Bruce. I think we got into our relationship to fast, we made out on the first day! Literally! I never see you because your always running off and it seems like never spend quality time together! I just hope we can still be friends" Vicki explained.

Bruce was lost for words. He knew that his persona as Batman would prevent him from having a big social life as a relationship usually allowed, but he didn't think his relationship with Vicki had got that bad!

"Yeah sure, whatever" and with that Vicki left.

Bruce knew that Batman was now controlling his life as Bruce Wayne...
