"If you fight it, your the enemy. I'm so sick, I'm trying to find a remedy."

I returned to Riddlers apartment knowing what was next, I had brought early versions of my Ghost costumes in small pieces so it looked as if I had been working on the costume here.

I knew that this was going to hurt Archie as I held onto my helmet and took a deep breath, I missed him and I missed his father too.

More specifically, I missed when I was a kid and nothing was wrong.

My parents death was a sudden hit of reality and life spiraled from there, it happened to Bruce not long after it happened to me too.

"Ed?" I suddenly speak.

Ed was in his Riddler suit to record his final recording and turned to look at me in confusion, he cared for me but not in the same way Bruce did and it made me feel as if I was missing a part of myself.

"Do you ever see or hear those kids from the orphanage? Begging you to get revenge, pleas and demands to the extent it clouds your judgement." I ask.

Ed pauses for a moment before placing a hand on my shoulder in a comforting way, he nodded his head a yes and took a deep breath in.

"Often, it's why I'm doing this." He admits.

I nodded my head in response and looked at my Ghost suit knowing that wasn't the reason I wasn't doing this.

It was the promise, it was a selfish reason in comparison to his selfless reason.

"Doctors gave me meds for it, they just don't seem to work anymore." I sigh.

Ed patted my shoulder gently to say he understood the stepped away to leave me to myself, I stepped outside whilst the rain poured causing it to make my skin feel warm.

It wasn't long until his plan would begin.

I snuck into Falcones lounge as myself but carried my suit with me so I quickly changed into that, Selena came in eventually but I knew she would and the lights suddenly cut off and she shot the gun.

So I stepped jnto the same room as them silently for the lights to flicker back on in the room, Falcone had managed to dodge the bullet and they both turned to see me.

The two began a chase after each other but Falcone soon got an upperhand and tried to strangle Selena, I stood still and watched as Selena tried to save herself but only failed and looked to me in desperation.

It reminded me of the time Riddler kidnapped me, how I realised no one was there to help me and it triggered something in me.

Batman stepped into the room but I launched myself at Falcone and started throwing punch after punxh as he tried to dodge them, he took a lot of hits before I kicked him to the floor to pin him there.

I had tunnel vision, I wad throwing punch after punch until Batman pulled me off him.

"Ghost, don't. You shouldn't listen to Riddler." He spoke.

I shook my head and went to deal with him before Batman yoinked me back again, he restrained me as officers came upstairs to arrest him and be surprised to see Ghost again.

Batman managed to calm me down before we escorted Falcone out and I knew what was next, Riddler had his cue from Penguin and it quickly happened and I turned to look at Batman.

"You think you know vengeance?" I whisper to him before disappearing.

Batman gave me a confused look then noticed where the bullet came from and debated chasing after me, bur he knew Riddler was more important and that we were connected so catching one was better than catching none.

I watched as they all scurried around whilst panicked and unsure of what to do, Riddler had really tore Gotham apart and I guess that would help heal it.

A fresh new start in a way.

Now, all I have to do is wait for tommorow.

Jim noticed that one book stood out more than the others and picked it up to see it belonged to Y/N, it was a daily log and it was mostly scribbles in recent times.

Writing went from evenly spaced, highly legible and clearly organised writing to scribbles with terrible legibility, the main repeated words were: orphanage, orphans, voices and hands reaching for them.

Jim's eyes widened for a moment and called Batman over as he soon realised this entire pile was about Y/N, it's would explain why some of theirs answers were in depth and others were just useless rambles.

"They knew eachother, both have PTSD from the orphanage." Jim muttered.

Batman quickly analysed the book and seemed hurt by reading the book, he knew that Ghost was Y/N and how it meant they knew he would lose Riddler and knew he would priotiose him.

But what was worst was the fact he felt responsible for their PTSD, he wasn't even sure if everything they said in Falcones was true anymore.

He picked up another folder to see photos of them with another person from the orphanage spill out, he picked one up from the pile now on the desk to see it was them on their last day in the orphanage smiling with the same person Alfred saw tale them out the hospital.

His heart stopped beating for a moment when he saw the same symbol on the man too, it meant that Y/N knew the Riddler personally and that was only a recipe for disaster.

Jim's phone starts ringing as Batman looks briefly at the other photos, he picks up one to see Y/N at their first house and they were roomates.

He had missed so many vital parts of their life, he felt horrible and heart broken about it.

But worst of all, the photos including him and them and his face either scribbled over or him cut off the photo entirely.
