"I wonder if I'll get burned if I touch it," He mumbled,
contemplating whether or not to reach out and touch the lion.
Sometimes not being scared easily was a curse to him--he really had
no idea what to do right now.
Henri Ducard walked to the real Scarecrow and slit his throat with
a sword. He then unmasked himself: Ra's. Ra's Al Ghul. He said:
"Doomzenith hired me to kill Scarecrow! Is he here?"
A dying Scarecrow said:
"Doomzenith? You traitor, I hope you rot in-"
He died. Doomzenith laughed:
"Sorry, old friend, but at least Ra's Al Ghul can fight and
plan!"
Ra's nodded. He said:
"The Brotherhood of Shadows is honored to rejoin the Joker in his
plans and shall help with any task. Scarecrow was useless, and his
lookalikes are all spies from The Brotherhood of Shadows. You!"
(In a video game, it would be hell of a jumpscare if you were
talking to Scarecrow, then next second his throat is slit.)
Ra's Al Ghul's men threw Scarecrow into the water.
(Does this remind you of something? The Dark Knight, the beginning
with the bank heist. However this time Doomzenith pulled the
strings instead of Joker.)
(But players know Scarecrow, and know how to bring him down. Ra's
Al Ghul is new, and his tactics are shaded, also the fact that the
players were prepared for Scarecrow. As for jumpscare... Croc or
Bane would be more of a jumpscare.)
"Not that kind of Coyote. Heard of a new hero in town, "The
Coyote". He may be a hero, but he never spares anyone. If some
heroes seek the same villain as him, he kills 'em. He's very close
to being a villain. You! All 50! Find him!"
He sent his men after Coyote. One returned with Coyote's head. Ra's
said:
"That was fast." Altessia glowers. "Someone going to let me out of
this? Or get torn too shreds?" She warns them. It sounds like an
empty threat. But it really isn't. She smells something familiar.
