Everything hurts. Note to self, armor your head better. The water's all around me, but it's hard to stay concious. I feel someone lightly touch my head...the catwoman...great, I'm practically defensless and a theif is right next to me.
She surprises me though. She props me up on a trolley (I'm surprised at her strength, I'm not exactly a small guy) and carries me out to a car. Everything's going black now, but I manage to get out..
"No doctors...." She only smiles at me and says something in reply, but everything goes fuzzy, and I pass out.
*******
I awake in a small room on a cot. Where....?
"You really need to take better care of yourself," a testy voice says from the corner. I prop myself up quickly, but it's too much exertion too fast and I have to lay back down to dispel the dizziness.
"Leslie...?" I ask groggily.
"Yes Bruce," She says leaning over me, "and don't try too much too soon, that's no little goosegg you have on your head. What did you get hit with? A hammer?"
"Sledgehammer or malet I think," I reply, trying to ignore the huge migrane I'm feeling.
Leslie shakes her head slowly, "A billionare and the best thing he can do with his time is dress up in a fancy costume...." she mutters as she checks my wounds.
"That arm isn't good, muscle tears on the shoulder, but you're lucky it should heal up after a few good days of rest, I'd be more carefull with the head, that's a nasty bruise."
"How did I get here?" I ask her, gently rubbing my hand on my head. My cowl's been removed, and I glance around for it, I see it sitting on a chair nearby. Leslie notices me glancing at it.
"Heck of thing to take off," she replied, "I was almost had to cut it off before I found the seam, I swear this damn costume is so realistic it's like skin."
I nod, but I notice she's avoiding my question, "who brought me in?"
"A friend," she replies causually, but I can tell she's knows more.
"Leslie who..."
"A friend bruce," she says with that strict tone that she used to use on me when I was a child, "and that's all you need to know."
I sigh, it's no good bugging her about it, she's a stubbourn woman.
"So who did this to you?" She asks after a moment.
"A madman..." I reply, my mind floating back to the memory of the insane clown...."No...not a man, a monster," I reply after a moment.
I've never seen anyone like the Joker before, and I can't help but wonder why a man does that to himself, and I wonder as I lie here now...what horrors is this man commiting?
