The next morning had risen. "We're goin' out. You coming?" Jim asked Eliza, approaching with Harvey. She pushed off a desk she was leaning on and cocked her gun. "Alright then. Let's move." He said and headed out. She followed Jim and Harvey. "What are we doing?" She asked. "We had a source tell us who's selling the RPG's." Jim replied. She got in the car with them and they drove to a rickety church looking place and parked. After they got out she examined the building, then followed them inside. They began to creep up to the man in a chair watching a movie with a reel machine. Jim got his attention and the man turned around. Eliza shut off the machine and watched with wild eyes as Jim interrogated the man. Wanting a name. "What do you say boys?" The man asked. Eliza swung around and watched as armed men lined up, cocking their guns. Click click click chock click. They all sounded. She eyed them all. Counting them each. One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six. Seven. Eight. "Why don't we show the law man here how we feel about uninvited guests?" The man claimed. Eliza began to smirk. They had no idea who they were dealing with. "Now. Who told you I sold that RPG?" The man asked Jim. Suddenly glass shattered from above the old man. Eliza got down on one knee behind the stand for the movie reel. Keeping the gun aimed to the ceiling. Bullets zipped through the air and she watched as all eight men dropped like flies. The old man was standing and beginning to stammer backwards. Watching someone in fear. Then began to run. Jim ran after him and took him down. A pair of combat boots and camouflage clothing made their way past Eliza. Blam! The soldier shot the man as he was attacking Jim. Slowly walking to Jim then stood in front of him. Jim began to stand. "Eduardo?" He asked. "Nice shot, right?" Eduardo asked and began to move forward. Eliza slowly stood. A soldier aimed at her as another aimed at Harvey. "Put your weapons down. Now." A female soldier commanded. "Delta force. Stand down." Eduardo commanded. The soldiers began to lower their guns. Eliza stared at the soldier standing by her. They looked a little intimidated in their eyes. She began walking towards Eduardo and Jim. Harvey followed. "Who's the G.I.?" Eliza asked as she walked over. "Eduardo Dorrance. We go way back." Jim said. "This is Eliza. It's a long story." He told Eduardo. "Any woman able to keep up with Jim? That's impressive by my standards." Eduardo said and offered his hand. She shook it. Then stood aside as Harvey introduced himself.
He kind of blocked Eliza from Eduardo as he asked how they know each other. Eduardo began to walk with Jim while talking about their time in the barracks and serving in the military. Then they stopped and went over a military plan. Eduardo stated their plan mainly is to restore order, then take the next steps. His second Sergeant rushed up and handed him a book. To which, Eduardo gave it to Jim who began to go through it. Eduardo introduced his second Sergeant who then shook Harvey and Eliza's hand. The book stated the buyers from the man. The last one, was Edward Nygma. "Son of a bitch." Eliza said and began to march out. "Hey!" Jim called out. She turned around. "He and I, will get Nygma. You go back to the GCPD with Harvey and these men." He said. She expressed a bit of anger then turned around and walked on ahead. "I was right there." She said to herself. Harvey talked to Jim, then he left with Eliza and the soldiers to the GCPD Building and inside. They both listened by comm from Jim if they apprehended Nygma. After a bit of waiting, Jim stated they don't have Edward. They lost him. But he told Harvey to put a wanted out for him. "On it." Harvey replied. Eliza left the big gun on a desk above and left into the artillery room. She took her jacket off and slipped on a gun holster from her shoulders and checked two pistols and filled them then placed them in the holsters. Then took another and stuck it in the back of her pants. Tossing her jacket over her shoulders she marched out. Slipping out of Harvey's view, she snuck down the stairs and out of the GCPD building through the Interrogation Room. She ran through the city and hid from other gang members as she did. Vengeance and torment on her mind, she was fueled to find him no matter what. She hid in an alley from some goons as they went by. But she was grabbed by a man from behind! She fought the man to her win and stole two knives from his body. She hid them and fled the scene immediately. Still having the target in mind, she listened to word on the streets. A man was speaking through a megaphone in a grungy area. Calling out for Edward. She made her way to nearby and watched the people. They began to run about. Claiming they saw where he went. "Chumps." She said quietly. Knowing full well that Riddler would outsmart them. She went back to where they came and spotted two grungy men dragging Edward by his arms. She stalked them to where they were taking him and watched them strap him to a chair. A woman with white curly hair woke him up as the two stood by a car and one of them got in. Edward woke to see their rig set up. The car was to rev and then it would surge through batteries, shocking him. Eliza made her way around to the street a few cars down and hid behind one. She took her two guns out of the holsters while hearing him scream. He began to beg for them to not do more. She raised her eyebrow and peeked past the car she was behind. He claimed the fuel line was clogged. She realised they weren't tormenting Edward. They were torturing The Riddler. They worked on the fuel line then got back in. Eliza turned and hid her guns then slowly pulled out a knife. The car blew up in flames and panic erupted in the family torturing him. She peered past the car again.
