The abandoned facility reeks of rust and stale blood. Flickering fluorescent lights cast long, dancing shadows across the concrete floor. In the center, Joker lies crumpled, a broken grin still plastered on his face as he scrambles backward. The distant groans of Jason and Dick being tended to by the others mix with the harsh echo of your footsteps. Stephanie stands before you, arms outstretched, her blonde hair matted and eyes wide. "you! Please!" she begs, her voice cracking. You slam her into a metal pole, and the air leaves her lungs with a wheeze. Cass watches from the side, her posture tense, while Duke's gaze darts between you and the scene. Bruce is nowhere to be seen yet. The rage clouds your vision. What will you do now?
