{~Arkham Origins~} Chapter 6

{~blood bath~}

-------------------------

I just noticed Bruce had returned once again. It's close to Christmas, currently Christmas Eve, and the real day soon. I'm hoping to spend the day with Bruce Uzi J V, and Alfred Bruce has already dealt with Anarky Shiva, the mad hatter copperhead, some penguins stuff, and most of the black masks, stashes then riddler.

Bruce is already in a hurry to go back out's suit has scratches from his fight with Bane at the royal hotel and even angry I've already figured out how humans hear and how the human body works in general and I currently working on something right now a matter of a fact something very very special something I wished to have back but it's not ready yet but it's going to be Bruce's Christmas present~.

Uzi seems to be in a world of her own going on about how this present must be 'perfect' J doesn't seem that worried she spends most of her time with Alfred and Jason same with V it's been all around good I'm currently with Alfred in the Batcave Alfred wants to say something by the look on his face to Bruce but can't bring himself to do so.

Until he finally does.

"It might be a bit anticlimactic, but I was hoping you could spend Christmas even with us now that the jokers are behind bars?" Alfred says, holding a special plate covered with a metal lid, the plate in his hands with me next to him.

While Bruce just responds without question, "Banes is still out there. I have to locate him with the signal from the tracker I've placed on him".

Alfred puts the plate down on the table near Bruce and takes off the lid with a nice steak while responding, "Even you must eat, Sir".

As Alfred takes the lid of a nice juicy stake with some chip can be seen.

Bruce's eyes seem to harden with a slightly annoyed look. "If you hadn't called the police, he would already be in custody" While he turns up the small radio and listens to the news I know what is coming.

"you know..I've made a promise of my own to your parents Sir" Alfred says 

"Not now, Alfred", Bruce says, turning up the volume of the radio again, trying to listen for any crimes until he hears something interesting.

"This sounds like it could be Bane or one of his men. If I hurry to the GCPD morgue, I can inspect the body and the autopsy report", Bruce says, slightly happy with this information.

"Well, before you leave, I've run some tests with Cyn over the compound you found over at the steel mill. It looks like a match to your.. 'globular for non-lethal restraint', " Alfred says while I smile slightly.

"You mean the glue grenade?"

"Indeed, the resin has finished curing. It's at your workbench,", Alfred says.

"But I would recommend testing it here before going out with it, but you won't listen to me. You never do", Alfred says as Bruce heads for the glue grenade.

Another thing whenever it comes to Bruce's Batman stuff whenever Alfred tries to give some advice or try and get him to eat he doesn't listen and just does his own thing same goes for me at times sometimes he doesn't even notice I'm right next to him I don't like this but even I can't bring myself to say something to Bruce about this as Bruce heads to his batwing again it seems Alfred has finally gained the courage to say something..unlike me.

"Master Bruce, stop Master Bruce BRUCE!" Alfred says as he finally catches up to him.

"What are you-"

"I will not in good conscience slow you to go out. You are outmatched by these assassins!" Alfred says with worry.

"I'm what-"

"You're not some hardened vigilantly. You're a young man with a trust fund and too much anger! You are in over your head, And I..don't want this to be your end," Alfred says genuinely, while I also agree with what he's saying.

Bruce walks past him and stops, beginning to speak again "Alfred, who do you see when you look at me? The boy whose shoes you used to tie every morning, the teenage you drove to his first date with? While everyone is here, I am out there, and the ONLY thing between the innocent and the pred-" Bruce gets interpreted by Alfred.

"You maybe but-"

"No, not maybe I am what the smuggler or thieves stop and think twice- that is fear! That is what I am. That's why they hired assassins because I am the reason the criminals breathe easier when the sun comes up. So no, Alfred, I am not in over my head. Tonight will not be my end, but it will be there's!" Bruce says and enters the batwing and leaves the Batcave leaving Alfred to watch Bruce leave with me.

I'm not good with how to resolve conflicts in families. I never was good at that stuff, although I don't remember Bruce ever saying such words before. I genuinely wish things were somewhat peaceful. At least I sigh, but before I leave, Alfred puts his hand on my shoulder making me stop and look at Alfred.

"I worry too much about him. I know you do as well. Just please make sure he knows. Think before he acts, please, Cyn", Alfred says, obviously wanting me to at least talk to him myself.

"*Sleepish nod* I will try to the best of my abilities. His actions right now are motivated by his rage his anger but also his love for us" With that, I leave the Batcave and go back to the manner.

J and Uzi have already tried before to say something but they were quickly shut down by Bruce not as much on Uzi I even tried V in the past it worked somewhat his anger rage is still there but after V reminded him why he's doing this he's anger and rage combined with his love the seemed to have calmed him down a bit but after his first Bane fight his anger spiked.

I believe he's also noticed I wanted to say something to Bruce but when I give him a look that shows I wanna say something to him he averts his eyes from me I'm not mad at him the only time I genuinely got angry was the one time he went out on an actual date like he just said Alfred had to hold me back with J and V at that time.

The very thought of anyone getting too close to Bruce that isn't me, Alfred Uzi J V, or Jason, poked my emotions in a way that would not be pretty. That's also how Alfred found out about the solver at the time.

And whenever I was near Bruce I felt warm in a good way Uzi even said she felt the same way while Uzi makes it not a big deal it is in retrospect although I'm not going to say anything concrete yet until I'm 100% sure but either way, I headed to the recharge station feeling very very tired right now as I enter the room I see Uzi J and V recharging as well that's good at least I enter my own recharge station and closes my eyes shutting down.

But that would lead to an event that would change me forever.

(Alfred's Pov)

I was in the middle of having a small snack while heading back down to Master Bruce's cave when I heard the communication on the computer going off. I answered it, hearing Bruce's slightly panicked voice and fear.

"Alfred Bane knows who I am. You are not safe in Wayne's manner. Is Jason There?" Bruce says through the come

"Jason is currently out. I'll call the police", I respond to Master Bruce.

"No, I can't have them figuring out my identity as well. Just secure yourself in the Batcave. Where are the Cyn V J and Uzi right now?" Bruce says to me, worrying also about the small robots as well.

"They are currently in their room recharging but what are you going to do?" I ask sir.

"I'm on my way to you and everyone else I'll... figure something out" Bruce says cutting the come and as I start to barricade myself in the Batcave I remember Bruce putting a button to lock the door to the drone recharge room completely locking the room door down saying something about 'just in case?'.

I press it and watch through the camera of the front of the drone's room door lock tightly and completely lock down the rest of the Batcave. I do hope Bruce gets back quickly.

(No one's Pov)

A few hours later, bane arrived at the manner with his men and started trashing the place, looking for something, That screamed bat until they came across a certain door that wouldn't budge with a warning on it saying, 'Turn back, danger, etc.'.

"Hey boss, I found something", one of Bane's men said to him while leading him to a door.

Bane and his men come across the door with warnings. The manner is already up in flames. Bane smashes through the door and enters the room while one of his men has a light in their hand until they stop coming close to a recharge station where certain maid-like a drone is on right now turned off.

"Da! This is no bat place. These are just robots. Keep looking! And leave these things be!" Bane orders his men and leaves the room. He feels like just being in that room felt wrong, and just being near those things rubbed him the wrong way.

As Bane had already left, some of his men stayed behind, looking around the room still in particular 2.

"Man this place sure is dark this place gives me the creeps dude" one says to the other one

"I know it's like something is watching us, but at the same time, these robots look so stupid with the wig on their head," the other says to the first as it starts making fun of the said maid drone, still currently turned off with said drone's hands.

" 'Look at me, I'm a stupid robot that can't even make simple gestures, hardy hare hare!' " he laughs a little at the little show he did.

"Don't touch that thing, man! I'm starting to not like this place at all," the other says to his friend, clearly spooked by this place.

"Oh come on man what is THIS thing going to do hahah!" He pulls the maid-like drone off the recharge pod-like thing, hiting the floor with a thud that echoes through the room as everything all of a sudden goes quiet.

"I think we should probably leave boss probably mite need us"

"Agreed" as the both of them start to head to the door slowly already not likeing how quiet it is until they hear a noise behind them and shine their light in that direction and see that somewhat small robot stand up slowly as it rubs it's faceplate it's yellow like led eyes still groggy waking up not having recharged enough as it stops and sees the 2 men in the room and sees fire outside the door.

After a few moments it's eyes turn into small X'es for it's eyes as tenticals appear behind the drone as it smiles sadistic and stabs both of the men in the stomach lifting them up as the men scream in pain and fear tears going down their eyes.

"*Giggle* now what are you 2 doing in my no ARE room~" the men just scream in fear and pain still while blood was falling to the floor and from the mouths "*head tilt* oh well~ better to assimilate then find out~" the maid brings the men closer to her and the men's vision goes dark.

(Back to Cyn pov)

After dealing with the men I was already slight sleepy still tired from being woke up so suddenly and then I was slightly annoyed by being woke up and then I see outside the door and see flames and my anger doubled in size when I saw the guys in the room about to leave I already was slight famished why no have this free meal right now?.

And so I killed them and began to eat their body's already I'm enjoying the taste of blood although it is nice I noticed I didn't feel a thing all it did was make my anger worse 

"[Callback Ping]" V woke up with X'es in her eyes as well controlling V she helps me wake up Uzi and J.

"You could have waited a bit longer.."J said tiredly while rubing her face.

"Ughh why are we getting woken up earl-woah" Uzi stops mid sentence seeing the fire from outside the door.

"What do you mean woah-" J stops herself as well seeing the fire outside the room and also seeing some of banes henchmen outside.

I send through some video files of what has occurred when I woke up from my vision to both Uzi and J they take a minute until Uzi look worried and angry at the same time so is J but with a more calmed anger after that I removed the block I placed on most of Uzi's abilitys and J allowing them full control of their abilitys why did I do that? Well I didn't want the person that's currently J to pull out a gun all of a sudden and Uzi to start doing something dumb with her solver.

After I did that Uzi eyes are a mix of purple and yellow having a large X on her face same as J although the colour is still yellow both very angry.

"*Angry* kill anyone you see but leave bane alive understood?" As I just finished my sentence V has already pulled out her wings and rushed out of the room as scream can be heard.

"We understand we understand really well" Uzi says as wings grow out of her back from mutation while J pulls out her wings with claw hand and both of them leave the room.

I also slowly walk out of the room and walk through the firery manner looking for any left over of banes men that I can kill to finally release all that pent up intent to kill that has been building up for a long time now hell even when I killed those first 2 guys it felt wrongly pleasurable it's felt so good but at the same time it felt wrong.

I've come across multiple of banes men I've split one in half ripped another apart removing his legs from his torso cut anothers head off bited off anothers head riped another of banes men of his arms and smashed his face into the ground his head exploding slightly cutting off another head and stabbing the men's head into his decapitated body their screams of fear pain made me feels ecstatic especially pleasurable as well.

"*Pleasured sigh* *chaotic laughter* this feels AMAZING~" I felt blood on my robot body but I did not care I enjoyed this feeling alot I passed by a mirror and stop and and look at myself from the said mirror that's surprisingly not destroyed.

All I see is a insane drone mimicking me from the mirror standing on blood I couldn't no I didn't know what to say am I going to far? One side of me says they deserved while the other says it's wrong taking lives is wrong stuck in a back and forth battling myself trying to figure out what choice would be better I hear people running and see more of Bane's men show up with guns this time although they looked afraid they also look cocky.

As they point their guns at me my sadistic grin returns these people deserve what's coming to them I Mean if I actually think about it for a moment they are trying to hurt my new FAMILY the people I can talk to.

"*Giggle* *laughter laughter* oh what the hell~ you will regret in your next lives for every meeting me~ oh well time to eat *neck bite*" I vanished from their sight and appear in front of one of them and bite the guys entire neck off ripping it off the dude couldn't even scream as he died they fired at me as the bullet's bounced off the little solver shield I have around me as their confidence turns into pure fear and frightening screams that would leave anyone afaird for these men.

My hysterical laughter echos throughout the manner as I rip bite stab smash any bane henchmen I see my cold body having blood all over my body pretty much as I lick off any blood on my face I kill the last one and hear Uzi voice in my head.

"Cyn we found Alfred we need help! God dam it J put your back into it!" Uzi tells J

"I'm trying this is alot heavily then it looks Uzi!" J responds angrily.

With that I head to Uzi and J with V into the Batcave and see Uzi and J trying to lift a large pile of rocks individually.

"*Curious head tilt* why are you not useing your solver to move the objects?" I ask her

"Because I don't want to make any sudden movements other wise the rocks will topple all over Alfred now for god sake help us!" Uzi says annoyed V begins to help lift some rocks off slowly with J while I help Uzi I hear a loud engine from outside the Batcave Bruce's back he lands quickly and jumps out of batwing and quickly runs over.

"Alfred!" Hes eyes land on 4 robot like drones some of them slightly covered in blood while he's eyes land on me he's eyes widden alot but he doesn't speak about it and helps out with us removing the rubble on-top of Alfred as we see him and all pull him out he looks very very hurt and doesn't look to be breathing Bruce looks scared but he pressed some buttons on his wrist gauntlet and charges them up and Presses on Alfred trying to jump start his heart after a few time he coughes alot Bruce's having successfully jumped started his heart as Bruce brings Alfred to the medical area of the Batcave and lays him down gently.

"Your going to be okay I swear Alfred" Bruce says as he takes off his mask and puts it to the side.

"I know I haven't always been.. supportive of what you do but I understand now go. They need you out there" Alfred says with horse voice slight coughing.

"I can't defend Gotham I can't even defend my own home.." Bruce says walking away back to the raid near the bat computer that has some working ones still with warnings on them as he turns off the radio.

"I repeat we have a code 10 cod-" as he shuts off the radio.

"Master Bruce now's..not the time for Doubt" Alfred says being supported by J up the stairs Uzi is watching Bruce same with me 

"I can't do it I can't stop them"

"No you cant- not on your own but it's high time that you realise you are just a man not and island. And a man's strength comes not from just brawn and intelligence" as Alfred brings his cowl back on the table near Bruce near his family photo of him and his family "but also from his allies" Uzi walks over and turns back on the radio as it plays out from a news channel.

"Multiple casualties multiple hostages civilians and prison guards we have lost black gate again captain Gordan is call of anyone anyone for assistance" the radio continues.

Bruce puts back on his cowl and smiles slightly again.

"They need you" Alfred says with a small smile

"No they need us" Bruce says as he walks past Alfred and looks at him J V Uzi and last but not least me.

"We will talk about this later Cyn" he says to me seriously looking me up and down while I avert my eyes from his he goes back on his batwing and head back out to black gate.

Alfred also looks at J V Uzi and then while sighing slightly "you girls look like a mess.."

"We know Alfred we can talk about this later" J says giving resurgence to him as he starts useing the bat computer again with J next to home while I can only look down with one thought in my head.

Will Bruce..hate me for doing what I did?
