He zipped up the janitor uniform in the back seat of an old car he fixed up in the junk yard. Multiple guns were laid out on the carpeted seats as well as a canister of poisonous fluids and a few grenades he got off a veteran at the retirement home he had been spending his nights at.
“Now I lay thee down to sleep. I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take,” he whispered softly, the pray he would hope to teach his future children. He imagined what it would be luck to pull the covers up to their chin, to kiss their foreheads and brush back their hair. He would pray for their safety and protection, but to imagine bringing children in to such a world where a simple promise of safety would be so easily broken with the evil that realm this world. The very pit of that evil steaming and breathing to life in Gotham. Gotham was the pit that led down to hell. He was now certain that the reason behind such forces and demons walking freely in this city stemmed from Lucifer’s hands opening up in their very ground.
He knew now why God had sent him to this town. He knew now why he had failed.
There was only one answer to such a cease pool of evil. Sweet mercy was no longer an option. The city had to feel the smite of the Lord. It would face destruction, and from the destruction, God would bring back the light.
He started to pack his items into a duffle bag, except for one of his guns that he put in his holster hidden within his uniform. He pulled out his cross from the necklace under his shirt, and brought it to his lips. He kissed it. “May the lord be with me when I face the darkness and led me out to his light.”
He opened the door of the car, and pulled the duffle bag over his shoulder. He looked up and the building and saw how the darkness seemed to sway and claw at the brick, pulling it further and further into the ground. He had realized the center of Lucifer’s grip in this city and it was Arkham. Arkham Asylum was the pit of this black hole.
Run away. You’re not strong enough.
You’re weak, Matthew. So very weak.
Instead of fighting. Join us….join us and you will be rewarded.
The dark voices called out to him, but he could hear their fear. He would succeed. The Lord had faith in him and had brought him back from death to finish this mission.
He walked to the building, keeping his head down as he went towards the staff entrance. He showed the guard his badge, and they allowed him in without a second thought. As soon as he stepped foot into the building, the air choked him. It rejected his presence because the demons knew he would be here to send them back to the flames. During his time in the FBI, he had already memorized this building, knowing the danger that streaked its hallways. He walked in the direction to the kitchen.
As he turned down another hallway, he felt a freezing sensation travel down his spine. He glanced up….and saw a monster.
The shadows wrapped around the man’s face, creating a horrifying Scarecrow with long arms that dropped and touched the floor. He had faced this demon once before. Yes, the Scarecrow, or the human name he used to mock man-kind, Jonathan Crane. He was being pulled down the hall by two orderlies.
He knew the Lord wanted to destroy this monster, but an action taken now would not be for the best, for the Lord had already given him a plan to execute.
