Imagine you, already an inmate at Arkham Asylum, meeting a new inmate who is known as Oswald Cobblepot!

I made this fanfic on my other account but since I am currently working on some new ones I'll post this one for now! And anyways, the Gotham season 4 winter finale ended with that one scene where Oswald was taken to Arkham Asylum so it would kind of fit lol.

Ugh! I can't wait to get out of this stupid dump! If I ever manage to get out! you thought to yourself.

You sat at a table at the far corner of the room, away from all the other inmates. I would actually preferred it better if I just let the bastards live instead of killing them! you thought to yourself again.

You guessed it.

You were in Arkham Asylum.

You were brought here because you were declared insane for murder. You had killed 3 teens because they wouldn't quit shouting and laughing in front of your house.

You were just trying to enjoy some quiet time and next thing you know, here come some stupid teenagers yelling and fooling around in your front yard. They wouldn't shut up for hours so you finally cracked.

You grabbed your gun and walked outside to the front yard to where the teens continued on with there yells and laughter. They had their backs facing you so they didn't notice as you got behind them and shot all of them in the head.

Afterwards, you took their bodies and got some rope. You hung their bodies in the front of your house as a warning for anyone else if they caused any ruckus.

Neighbors who lived around you called the cops. They broke into your house and handcuffed you. You were then taken to the GCPD where you were declared insane and afterwards taken to Arkham Asylum.

Now here you were, at the Asylum, sitting alone at a table, bored out of your mind.

All of a sudden, everyone in the room went quiet. You heard the gate door open and close followed by footsteps.

You looked up to see why everyone had gone quiet.

There was a man you had never seen before standing in front of the gate door.

He must be a new inmate. you thought to yourself.

Everyone stood quiet as he walked or more like limped towards an empty table.

Well that is until one of the inmates decided to throw food at his face.

Everyone in the room began laughing as he wiped the food off his face and looked around angrily.

"Ha! Penguin!" shouted one of the crazy inmates, pointing his finger at him.

Penguin? What kind of name was that?

The man turned around angrily to the inmate, who then did a failed attempt to hide his face.

The man walked towards one of the tables and stepped onto it. He angrily kicked one of the inmates' trays onto the floor.

"There seems to be some confusion! My name is Oswald Cobblepot!" the man named "Oswald Cobblepot" shouted out.

So that's his real name. Penguin must be some sort of nickname. you thought to yourself.

"Many of you, no doubt may have heard of me. Some of you you clearly have not." Oswald said as he walked along the table,"For those poor,ignorant souls, I offer a little patience. I am not a man to be trifled with! I am powerful! I am vicious! I'm king of Gotham!"

He began walking proudly towards the end of the table. Everyone then began mumbling until one of the inmates shouted,

"I'm the king of Gotham!"

Oswald immediately turned around in anger.

"No, I'm the king of Gotham!" shouted another inmate.

Soon enough, all the inmates ,except you, began jumping onto the tables and started yelling. Oswald, obviously frustrated, walked off of the table.

Oswald just defeatedly limped over to an empty table in front of you and sat there.

"Rough first day huh?" you asked.

Oswald turned around to look at you angrily.

"Hey calm down! I'm not as crazy as these freaks here." you said.

"Then why were you put here?" Oswald asked, turning to face you.

"For murder. I killed 3 teens because they wouldn't shut up with their annoying yells and shouts. I shot them and hung their bodies in front of my house. My stupid neighbors told on me to the police and they captured me. Afterwards, they said I was insane and now I'm here." you replied.

"Wow, I can see why you killed them. I wouldn't be able to stand one second that." Oswald said.

"Explains why you got onto the table and did your little speech! Now its your turn. Why were you put in here?" you asked.

"I killed the mayor." Oswald replied, a small smirk on his face.

"The mayor? Theo Galavan?" you asked.

"Yes." Oswald answered.

"Why?" you asked again.

"He had my mother killed in front of me. I held her as she died. But now I got my revenge!" Oswald said.

"Wow, I always felt like he was hiding something." you replied.

"Yes, I know. So tell me, what are we supposed to do here?" Oswald asked.

"Eh, nothing much really. Right now we are in the Entertainment room, which is no where near entertaining! Supposedly we are supposed to chat with each other and get along, which isn't easy when your surrounded by a bunch of crazy people!" you replied, throwing your hands up dramatically.

"I guess that means we are the only normal, or at least most normal, people here." Oswald said.

"Yes, I think your right." you replied, feeling a bond beginning to form.
