Goodnight Gotham.

Chapter Twenty-Eight.

Six months. It was only a matter of six months until Gotham's fate was in your very hands and damn, were you excited. Everything was going according to plan. Ian was in the process of making the explosives, you were working on figuring out where you wanted to plant them, and most importantly, Jervis was in a safe place. Wait, most importantly? What the hell were you thinking? You have a mutual respect for Jervis yes, but he is certainly not the most important thing to you right now...or was he?

You had to admit, as you've been given more time to think about what Jervis had done, your heart was torn. On the one hand, you knew what he had done was atrocious but on the other, you couldn't help but still love him and want to be with him. God, you felt horrible even thinking that. How could you betray Alice? You didn't know her personally but she was a huge factor in why you were doing this. You wanted to destroy the city in honor of people like her, people who have been abused, mistreated, and manipulated by the people wandering around Gotham at this very moment, and you wanted to be with her abuser? You felt ashamed. The conflict in your mind was growing and growing, your heart started to race. But what about the appreciation that you felt towards Jervis? You two had an important past. You didn't want to acknowledge it but as you look back, he has shaped you into the person that you are toady, he made you a...better person.

You had no idea what to do but you needed to make a choice, and fast. Time is running out. Do you go through with this plan, or should you be with Jervis? What do you value more? Love or Morals? Do you follow your heart or your brain? Who were you really doing this for? Alice...or Jervis?
