"Harvey Dent. Doctor Hugo Strange will see you now." a guard spoke through the intercom. In repsonde, two more guards pushed Harvey into the doctor's room onto the patient's bed. They attempted to lock his hands to the bed, but Hugo had signaled them to come a hault.
"No need. Harvey is one of the few civilized patients here. I don't think we'll need to go all out in today's appointment, isn't that right Harvey?" Hugo said while turning his head to Harvey and crossing his right leg over his left. Hugo places his arms on the desk and waited for a response. "Harvey, isn't that right" he repeated.
"Sure." Harvey's rash and scuffled voice answered back.
"Your deathbed, Hugo." one of the guards said before exiting. When the door closed behind them, Hugo looked down at Harvey's hands, which were infront of him instead of behind him, and raised his eyebrow.
"No coin?" Hugo asked, clearly interested in the fact that Harvey's most noticable item was not in sight.
"Let's just say that today, I'll my decisions are already decided. No need for it." Harvey coldy responded, but with some confidence. Hugo could see how troubling it was for Harvey to say that, but he was proud nonetheless.
"Very well. Out of all the inmates, you're the one who always improves the most. Even more so than Jonathon. Last week, he terrorized the guards by-" Hugo attempted to say, before Harvey cut in.
"I didn't come here to talk about him, but since we're on the topic of people, how is Harley?" Harvey asked the doctor, causing Hugo to become a little shocked. He placed his hand on his forehead and clapsed his hands together.
"Interested in people? Quite a breakthrough, but don't rush it Harvey. Don't forget that Pamela Isley nearly killed you. Sure, you did shoot her father, but-." Hugo reminded Harvey at the same time as warning him, but Harvey wasn't interested and as usual, cut him off.
"I told you to tell me about Harley, not reminise about the past. As a doctor, you should want to move forward instead linger in the past, no matter how damaging it is. We all know it can either be bad" Hugo's eyes focused on Harvey's disfigured side. "Or good." Hugo's eyes now locked onto Harvey's un-touched side.
"Since you've improved drastically, I suppose I could inform you on the status of Harleen Quinnzel." Hugo laid back in his chair, taking his glassess off while Harvey didn't move at all. "I'm afraid that she is more distraught than usual. Her psyche and body are both extremely damaged from the torment caused by...The Joker. I'm afraid if it doesn't get any better, than she will have to be taken to the suicidal wing, for her own safety of course."
"Has there been any signs of that she wants to commit suicide?" Harvey asked in a tone somewhat more interested.
"No, but we cannot take any risks, especially with her being a victim of The Joker aswell as her showing absolute zero signs of emotion besides depression. You probably know her more than I do, Harvey. What do you suggest? Does she have any close ones?" Hugo asked Harvey.
"No." Harvey's head turned to the right to face the wall. Hugo became more interested.
"Harvey?" Hugo asked.
"Well, maybe there is some. Jonathon and her had a past relationship, but they don't speak as often mainly due to...Joker. Selina stayed with Harley and Pamela alot, but she was only in it for the pure fact it was a hideout." Harvey's voice became more raspier when he began to speak again. "Bitch." After taking a second to stare at the pure white wall, Harvey's voice returned to it's normal statr. "But, there is....Pamela. Harley goes to her for everything. If anyone could help it's her, but last I heard is that she went out of the country for her own purposes." Harvey said without moving an inch or blinking an eye. However, Hugo could read his emotion despite it being emotionless.
"That is right. She was cleared sane and comitted to leave Arkham. What country did she go to?" Hugo asked.
"EurAsia or something." Harvey said, angered.
"EurAsia? Interesting." Hugo told Harvey. That's where "he" was last seen....Hugo thought to himself. "Now, Harvey, why the interest in Harleen?"
"Like everyone else in this city, I hate that clown too. Always have." Harvey turned to face Hugo. "Always will." His voice became raspier again. Hugo loosened his neck collar a little.
"Well, today we had a good session. I think I'll be seeing you-" As Hugo began to stand up, Harvey stood up and interrupted him.
"Sit down." Harvey scolded. Hugo sat down without hesitation, but his eyes widened due to the sudden change in Harvey. "Thank you for the appointment, but like I said, I have decisions to carry out." Harvey pulled out a key, which he kept in the sleeve of his uniform, and liften the cuffs over his head to open them. He then pulled out his trademark coin, aswell as a gun from the other side of the bed. "Riddler did a good job putting things into place, didn't he?" Harvey told the doctor, who was now facing a gun barrel.
"Harvey?! What are you doing?" Hugo asked Harvey, panicking.
"Making a minor change to the decision." Harvey liften up the coin showing the heads sign. "Heads, you keep your head. Tails..." Harvey turned the coin around. "Your corpse will lie on this floor in a matter of minutes.
"Harvey, don't do this. I helped you, I-" Harvey cut Hugo off once again.
"Enough!" Harvey shouted. Harvey tossed the coin in the air, causing Hugo's eyes to focus on the coin that seemed to fall in slow motion. As it hit Harvey's palm, Hugo closed his eyes expecting the worst. In a matter of seconds, a gunshot filled through the halls of Arkham.

"That's the cue. I told you everything would fall into place. Nobody should underestimate, I, The Riddler." Riddler told Jonathon who was now dawning his Scarecrow mask.
"I'll handle the inmates." Scarecrow told Riddler who was already on his way out of the lunch hall.
"Of course and I will take place of the guards." Riddler said while loading a pistol. Scarecrow ran to where the inmates were and began to release all of them. They all ran rapid through the halls.
"Alice! I'm coming for you!" he heard one of them say. Jeevis, you idiot, Scarecrow thought to himself. He walked to the next cell to see Zsazz demanding to be let free.
"Let me out Jonathon. I have a desire to kill someone and we all know, we must fufill those needs! First on my list is that cutie Harley Quinn! Let me out!" he said in a creepy crazy tone.
"Kill just to kill? Needs just to fufill? So many fears run through your veins, Zsazz. Confront them for once in your life. Be a man." Scarecrow lifted his hand up and sprayed fear gas into Zsazz's eyes, causing him to fall back and claw out his torso. "The only thing to fear Mr. Zsazz, is fear itself!" Scarecrow said in a dark tone. Harley's cell is close, he thought. As he began to walk up to Harley's cell, he noticed the door was open. Slightly worried, he walked to the cell and noticed that no one was there, except a card. He walked into the cell and lifted up the card, revealing a Scarerow marked out with a big smile made of blood. Joker was....here, Crane thought. He heard footsteps and turned around to release more fear gas, but hearing upon seeing Riddler, now dawning his green suit, and Harvey, now dawning a black suit, he lowered his guard.
"Did you free everyone? I expect you could have atleast handled that." Riddler said, adjusting his hat.
"Everyone, but Zsazz." Scarecrow answered Riddler.
"Nobody like him anyways. Let's go." Riddler said and began to leave the hall.
"Where's Harley?" Harvey asked, while they walked down the halsl together.
"Joker was....here. I found a card with a scarecrow covered by a clown smile." Scarecrow said a little worried, causing Harvey to become annoyed.
"I thought he wasn't in Arkham!" Harvey's asked Scarecrow, his voice echoing throughout the Asylum.
"He wasn't. He must've snuck in somehow. I don't know what happened, but-" Scarecrow said to Harvey, but Riddler cut him off.
"Enough talking. We have to get out now before we get a little visit from the bat. He attacks in numbers now." Riddler said. The three men saw numerous guards and inmates dead on the floor, but continued to persue of the exit. Riddler opened the main door. "And as I predicited, today was the day." Rain fell from the sky as the three villains now embraced freedom. It felt amazing, but Scarecrow couldn't help but think about the card. The Joker was sure to follow up on his threat. Somehow.
