Chapter 13: Victor Zsasz

After seeing Batman, Isaac is now looking out at the city. As he does, he decides to listen on his radio. He then spots Arkham Asylum at the distance. Then, he hears a woman's voice on the radio, talking. 


Woman's voice on radio: Victor has been in isolation since the attack on the guard last week. As I wait for him to be brought up to me, I have had time to review his notes. I am increasingly worried he cannot be cured. He has no empathy for his victims. Deep down, I believe he views all of us as potential victims. And also, I'm more concerned about Dr. Cassidy's boyfriend, William Cooper. Ever since he came here to the Asylum, his mind is still horribly messed up from the death of his brother. (Sighs) I only wish for some miracle to happen for him. 


Isaac sighs after hearing that. Victor Zsasz, another crazed man. He's been killing innocent women in Gotham City. He lost his parents, and his money from gambling. And after he kills his victims, he marks himself on his body. Just then, he hears a guard on the radio.


Guard's voice on radio: Doc, are you okay?


Woman's voice on radio: What's happening?


Guard's voice on radio: It's Zsasz. He broke out of isolation. He's gone!


Woman's voice on radio: Oh gosh!


Guard's voice on radio: Don't worry, doc, you're in the safest place. He's definitely left the island. 


Guard 2's voice on radio: Sir, he's not the only one. William Cooper is gone too. He's nowhere to be found. Looks like he's left the island too. 


Woman's voice on radio: Of course. But someone needs to alert the authorites, he'll need to kill again. Do you understand me? Needs to...Oh, no. He's gone after Dr. Cassidy! And William must be trying to stop him!


Isaac's eyes widen, and speeds off to where Dr. Cassidy lives. It took him four minutes, but he makes it. He looks at the window, and spots her sitting down on her seat, petting her cat. Just then, her phone rings. She answers it. 


Sarah: Hello?


Woman on phone: Sarah, it's Gretchen. Listen to me. 


Just then, Isaac hears someone knocking on her door. She looks at the door. 


Sarah: Oh, for the love of...Hold on. There's someone at the door. (Puts down the phone, and walks to the door)


Gretchen on phone: Sarah! Do no answer the door! Can you hear me? Do not answer the door! It's Zsasz! He's free!


Isaac frowns as he watches her opening the door. She gasps in horror as it's Victor, smirking at her.


Zsasz: Hello, Sarah. 


She screams, and runs in her apartment. He chases after her. He catches her, and pins her down on the floor. Her cat hisses at him, but he hits the cat away. He looks down at Sarah. 


Zsasz: Now, time to have the mark. 


She's crying in fear, knowing that he's gonna kill her. As he's about to slit her throat, someone charges into the room, yelling. It's William. He tackles Zsasz off of Sarah. She gasps, and sees it's her boyfriend. 


Sarah: William! 


William: (Punching Zsasz in the face) Get your ugly face off of my girl, you freak! Don't you ever touch her again!


He keeps punching him, but then Zsasz grabs his hand, and then stabs his right hip. William screams in pain, and Zsasz kicks him off. Sarah grabs him, and holds him close. Zsasz spits some blood out of his mouth. He looks at them as he gets back up. 


Zsasz: Ah, William. You've come to save your love. But it looks like you've also come to join her. And now, I've got two marks. 


William tries to get up, but he's too hurt to get up. Just as he's walking at them, someone breaks through the window. Everyone looks, and sees that it's Isaac. 


Sarah: (Gasps) Red Eye...


Isaac: Victor Zsasz. You're supposed to be in the Asylum. I'm afraid you won't get the mark. 


Isaac walks towards him. Zsasz tries to stab him with the knife, but Isaac grabs his wrist. He twists it. Zsasz screams in pain, and Isaac drops him on the floor. Isaac throws the knife away. Zsasz then grabs a metal pole. He swings it at Isaac, but Isaac grabs him, and slams him into another window, breaking it. He groans in pain, and drops down on the floor again. He gets back up, and charges at Isaac, but he hits him in his left knee, making him bend down, and slams his elbow on his back. He falls down on the floor again. Zsasz's face is a little bruised, but he's taking the pain well. He looks around as he gets up. He finds a frying pan, and grabs it. He swings at Isaac, but he grabs him, turns him around, and grabs the pan. He slams it down onto his head. He screams out loud, and falls down on the floor. Isaac throws down the pan on the floor. William watches as he sees Red Eye taking down Zsasz real good. Isaac then kicks Zsasz in the face, sending him up. Then, he punches him three times in the face. He groans and falls down again. Isaac looks at him. Zsasz laughs a little as he coughs up a little bit of blood. He then spots the knife again. He picks it up, and looks at Isaac as he gets back up. 


Zsasz: I'm going to kill you. (Chuckles) I'll kill you. 


Isaac gets ready for it again. Zsasz growls as he charges at him with the knife. But Isaac stops him, and then, he punches him in the face hard, knocking him out. He falls down on the floor again. Isaac looks down at him, and then looks at William and Sarah. They look at him.


William: (Panting, clutching his wound) Red Eye...


Isaac: William Cooper. Looks like you only escaped to come save your girlfriend. That clearly shows that you're doing fine, and your mind is now going back to normal. And you're gonna be okay, William. The wound is non-fatal.  


William looks at him, and at Sarah. She looks at him, and smiles at him. He smiles back at him. William then watches Isaac leaves the building. He then finds something on Zsasz's chest after Issac tied him up. Sarah goes to the phone to call the police. William crawls over to Zsasz, and checks it out. He sees that Isaac has left another calling card. He plays the music. It plays, "The Call", by Backstreet Boys. William listens to it, and turns it off. He takes some paper towels, and uses them to stop his bleeding. He waits for the police to arrive. Sarah comes back to help him. She sits down with him, and lays her head on his shoulder. He smiles at him, and she smiles back at him. She kisses him on the lips, and he kisses her back. Sarah's cat comes into the kitchen, and it lays on her lap. Isaac watches from the window, and he smiles. He walks off, to go back to base. 


Here's the 13th chapter of Batman: Super Soldier. Looks like Isaac managed to stop Victor Zsasz from killing his best friend's girlfriend, Sarah Cassidy. And it looks like William also escaped to save her. And Isaac saved them both. Let me know what you all think of the chapter. Vote, review, and comment. Thank you.
