I smiled as he pulled forward, taking the door, and pulling it open for me. He turned, beginning to walk away so I could walk from the place he had landed so I could jump down. I took in a deep breath before jumping.
I was terribly afraid of heights. Just the thought of them made me cringe slightly. I landed on the ground, a hard thug as I bent at the knees to absorb shock.
I looked up to see no one for a moment.
"Edward, you have to go back to Arkham now. You can't run. It wouldn't be good for you" I took a few steps before peering around the side.
A black cape, thick form. I gasp quietly. It was the dark knight himself. He turned at the light noise. Ready, it seemed, to fight anyone that could have been left awake. He relaxed as he saw me. Another Damsel was all I was to him most likely. I took in a deep breath, flinching as I saw my patient sprawled out on the floor.
I had apparently come in in the middle of conversation with someone, because he spoke, very deep, aloud.
“Out” Once before he took a step toward me.
“Gordon informed me of the goons that were loose. It was luck that Riddler was-“
“Edward” I cut him off with a slightly sharp tone and a finger in the air.
“Excuse me ma’am”
“His name is Edward. So, why not call him that shall we?”
He kept his eyes straight, although he wanted to roll them. I was another crazy doctor obsessed with her work to him. It didn’t matter if they were cured or not. To him, these people couldn’t be cured.
“He must’ve been working along-side Joker’s goons.”
“Actually, he was protecting me. I’m his doctor, Faith-“ I pulled out my name badge that had been shoved into one of the large pockets.
“He actually has saved me a lot…however long it’s been. First on Arkham, then here…Twice…”
He acted like he couldn’t believe it. It was like I was crazy myself. I was no loonatic. I knew what had happened.
“He’s dangerous ma’am.” I smirked, taking a few steps toward him.
“As his attending physician, I assure you…A broken nose and…a swollen eye later wasn’t necessary, Mr…?” I left the last part open. Of course, I tilted my head slightly as I forced Edward onto his back.
“Batman- is fine ma’am”
I giggled lightly, tilting his head back, and using my coat to soak up the blood from his nose.
“Doesn’t fit you, that’s for sure-“
“I need to get them back, before they all wake up…”
I sighed quietly, shaking my head, ”Very well, I’ll call for an ambulance, and you can…do whatever it is you do…” I looked back a moment before shaking my head. Of course, what was that again?
