City of Fear- For the Fans

*On the outskirts of Gotham, the remaining Misfits have gathered- with Magpie and Human Magnet on a second honeymoon, Dekker in Arkham, Chancer and Chuck in hospital and Blake god knows where, only Jules and Len remain, outside of a plane. Suddenly a portal opens up, it's Mr Polka Dot Man, and with him Getaway Genius and three hooded men*

 

Len- Abner. Genius.

 

*Genius wimpers*

 

Abner- He wasn’t alone.

 

*Len spots the prisoners. He turns to Getaway Genius*

 

Len- The hell is this? You don’t get to bring friends

 

Genius- (shaken) They... are not my friends.

 

Abner- Don’t worry. No extra charge.

 

Len- And why would I want them?

 

Abner- They were after this one *he indicates Genius*. They work for the brat.

 

Len- ...The Arkham Moth?

 

==========

 

*The prisoners kneel by the cargo door, handcuffed. Len grabs the first prisoner*

 

Len- So... what's up? Know any good jokes, it's going to be a long ride... Heh.

 

*The first prisoner says nothing*

 

Len- Look, the flight plan I just filed with ARGUS lists me, my men, and Genius here. But only one of you.

 

*Len opens the cargo door. Jules and Abner hang the first prisoner outside*

 

Len- First one to talk gets to stay on my aircraft! So... who hired you to nab Getaway Genius?

 

*Nothing.*

 

Len- shit... that was supposed to work... WHO WANTS TO TRY NEXT?!

 

*Jules grabs Hooded Man 2, hanging him out the door*

 

Len- TELL ME ABOUT THE ARKHAM MOTH! WHY DOES HE WEAR THE MASK?!

 

*The prisoner says nothing*

 

Len- LOT OF LOYALTY FOR A HIRED GUN!

 

Prisoner 3- Perhaps they're wondering why someone would shoot a man before throwing him out of an plane.

 

*Len turns to the Third Prisoner.*

 

Len- At least you can talk. Who are you?

 

Prisoner 3- It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is the plan.

 

*Len, wary, approaches the Third Prisoner- pulling off their hood, revealing The Arkham Moth*

 

AN- *Scoffs* No one cared who I was until I put on the mask.

 

Len- Theatrical, yeah. Say... if I pull this off, will you die?

 

AM- You're welcome to try!

 

Len-... Why do all this, eh? You’re young-

 

AM- Not by your standards...

 

*Jules stiffles a laugh*

 

Len-... Real mature. Was being caught part of your plan?

 

AM- Not really. Least of all by you. Still... we needed to know what he told Walker and I suppose this works.

 

Genius- Nothing! I told hin nothing!

 

Len- Why not just ask him?

 

AM- Yeah... that'd work.

 

Len- You have methods.

 

AM- Sure I do... but where's the fun in that?

 

*Jules looks out the window. The plane lurches*

 

Jules- Um, Len?

 

Len- *mock applause* Congratulations, you got yourselves caught. What’s the next

step of your master plan?

 

AM- Crashing this plane... With no survivors.

 

*Two men shoot through the windows, the other two attach grapples to the fuselage- hoists start to pull and the tail of the commuter plane is lifted, unnaturally. The Arkham Moth breaks free of their bonds, smacking Len in the face and grabbing Genius, much to his protest*

 

AM- Oh shut up!

 

Len- Fuck this. Krill!

 

*A portal opens and our trio exits. As they do so, the Arkham Moth attaches himself to a harness, still holding Genius. The larger plane drops the first plane which falls to the ground. Still strapped into the harness, the Arkham Moth is reeled up into the bigger plane but Genius starts fumbling with the harness*

 

AM- The hell are you doing?!

 

Genius- Let go of me!

 

AM- Now's not exactly the time to-!

 

*Finally the harness breaks and Getaway Genius plunges to the ground, landing with a thud, activating their jetpack, the Moth avoids the same fate*

 

AM- Oh. Problem solved?

 

=====The Belfry=====

 

Drury- Hey, did you see that?

 

Gar- That plane crashing to the ground? Yeah. I saw it.

 

Rigger- Hey! I can see my house from here!

 

Miranda- That's a motel Rigger.

 

Rigger- And?
