When I woke up I was in a hospital and had something wrapped around my waist and a IV in my hand. I looked around and let out a groan when I saw handcuffs on my other arm.

"Morning Canary." Jim Gordon said with a smile.

"I take it back.... it can get worse." I said softly.

"You were found shot.... didn't think you would live to see prison life... so happy you did."

"How did you know who I was?"

"Penguin's club gave us a call.... looks like someone inside told us who you where."

"Not possible no one there knows my name except.... Oswald." I said softly.

"Oswald Cobblepot? The Penguin?" He asked with a laugh.

"I should of known not to trust him..... so can I make a deal to not go to jail?" I asked leaning back on the bed.

"Give me Riddler and I burn all your files."

"Deal, He is hold up at the docks, password is green." I said calmly.

"Thank you." He said as he uncuffed me.

"No, thank you.... for helping me learn to never trust anyone ever again." I said as I let out a sigh.

A week later I was allowed to leave. I made my way to my house and saw it a wreak.

"Well guess it's time to find a new place." I said with a groan.

It wasn't easy finding a new hotel and in the end I was forced to stay at the hotel across from Penguin's club.

"What I wouldn't give to go in there and punch him in his stupid face." I whispered as I turned and locked my door.

Ring ring

I walked towards my phone and saw a unknown number I answered it with a frown on my face.

"Hello?" I asked calmly.

"Turning me in...... you messed with the wrong person."

"Riddler.... having fun in jail?"

"Who says I'm in jail? Think I can't escape the cops? Anyways... I'm coming for you and I will get you back."

"Good luck, cause I'll be ready.... and I can't wait to return the favor of you shooting me." I said as I hung up.

I let out a sigh as I held my side. I quickly dialed the number of an old friend and asked for some weapons.

"Thanks (B/F), I have the Riddler on my tail and I need something in the event he comes here." I said as she handed me some weapons.

"Don't worry bout it, but I heard Zsasz was looking fo you too.... something about the Penguin wanting to see you. Want me to leave a message to him?"

"Tell the Penguin that I know what he did and he better be lucky that I'm not coming for him. Cause of that dick the cops know my name... can't believe I actually liked him." I said as I shook my head.

"Gotcha." She said as she left the apartment.

A week later I was walking down the street when I felt eyes on me. I let out a sigh as I turned a corner and pulled my gun out. I waited for the guy to follow and then I pinned him to the wall.

"Zsasz why are you following me?" I asked angrily.

"Penguin wants to see you." He said calmly.

"Tell him I said go to hell." I said as I pulled away from him.
