When we finished supper, I knew that I needed to get out of here for a while. 

   "I'm going for a walk, Alfred," I told him, but it wasn't a good idea for long. 

   "Bruce is going with you then, he needs the fresh air," Alfred replied back. Ugh, he saw right through me. 

   "Fine," I rolled my eyes and Bruce followed me out. 

   "You're doing this on purpose, aren't you," Bruce started to bug me. 

   "Well, I wasn't expecting to drag you along," I retorted. 

   "I could've been one step closer to finding out our parent's killer, but no, I'm stuck on a stupid walk!" He started to get upset.

   "Well I didn't ask for you to join me!" Before we could argue anymore, I heard a noise. 

   "What was that?" I started to look around. 

   "It was the wind," Bruce kept walking ahead, annoyed that he had to answer a question such as that. I had to run to keep up with him. 

   "No, I swear I heard something break." Bruce finally stopped walking and looked around too. What we found was a weird sight. 

   "Selina and Riddler are just standing there," Bruce noticed. 

   "Yeah, I wonder if something is wrong." We went up to them, but they didn't even notice us.

   I waved in Edward's face, but he didn't blink. 

   "Oh no," I realized what was going on. "Jervis got to them!" I panicked a little. What was his plan this time? I would've thought he learned his lesson when I stabbed him. We then heard his voice. 

   "Welcome to my little game of choice, the rules are simple, choose which one lives and which one dies, the one you choose to live will be your prize."

   "Enough of this Jervis! I thought you already leaned not to mess with me," I called out and hoped he heard me from wherever he was. He then stepped into view behind Selina and Edward. 

   "You gave me such a thrill from our last encounter that I wanted to try harder and destroy you, I no longer go by Penguin's rule anymore since he's been out of commission, so this is all me," he responded.

   "What do you have against me?" I needed to know. Bruce just stood there confused because he didn't understand anything that was happening, and he thought he was the smart one. 

   "You are unlike any other person I've met before, ever since I lost my dear Alice, I've been looking for someone to fill the void. When I noticed you had a little crush on Riddler here, I knew that I had to either destroy you or your loved ones, today I've chosen loved ones!" He laughed at the last part.

   "I had no idea you had history with the Mad Hatter," Bruce whispered to me. 

   "I don't want to talk about it," I told him. 

   "Anyway, on with the game! Choose who lives and who dies. Would it be he darling street trash girl, Selina Kyle? The one who you befriended off the streets and yet our friend, Bruce Wayne, has a crush on her, don't want to let your brother down now, dear. And we have our beloved Riddler, or Edward Nygma if you want to get technical, the man who almost tried to kill you, yet saved you on many occasions and always looks out for you. Now decide! You have 1 minute." He went back into the shadows, but clearly didn't go as far because we could still see him.

   "You gotta pick Selina," Bruce urged me. 

   "But.. Edward.." I didn't appreciate Bruce making this hard for me. Jervis did this on purpose, just so we could bicker and he's probably end up killing both of them right in front of us. "Don't do this to me Tetch," I started to sound pathetic. 

   "We can't always be lucky in life, now choose which one lives so the other can die by my knife," he responded.

   I looked back at Bryce, but he was still urging me to pick Selina. I really do care about Selina, but Edward means more to me. 

   "I can't do this," I muttered the words and went down to my knees. This was the hardest thing anyone had ever asked me to do. 

   "Aw, such a pity, too bad because I'm going after Bruce instead!" Tetch ran towards us and lunged at him. 

   "No!" I yelled and tried to intervene. When I did, I managed to push Bruce out of the way, but instead felt something sharp go into my abdomen.

   Tetch smiled at this realization. 

   "A much better target for my knife, sparing his life for your life," he stated. I coughed blood in his face, but that only made him smile wider. The stab wound made me weak, so I couldn't punch him or anything. Bruce just stood there not knowing what to do. Either he was in shock or admiring my bravery. Instead, I decide to do something painful, but affective. I pulled the knife out of me and then stabbed it back in Tetch.

   "That's the same place you stabbed before!" He groaned from the same pain. 

   "Guess you need to get it checked out again," I told him. We both went down in agony though because the pain I felt was too great to remain standing. Edward and Selina snapped out of their trance and came running over to us. Selina went to Bruce while Edward came running to me. 

   "Rebecca, stay with me" Edward held onto me. I was struggling to catch my breath, it also looked like he was about to cry.

   "I'll call for help," Bruce immediately took out his phone. 

   "They won't reach us in time, I mustered out. 

   "Don't say that, you're gonna make it," Edward reassured. I really hope he was right, but I've been through this before. After all, this is Gotham. With all of those times in getting hurt though, this one feels worse, almost fatal. 

   "Edward..." I started.

   "Yes?" He looked so worried, yet held me tight. 

   "If I don't make it, I-" 

   "Shh, you are going to make it, I promise you will and I am never wrong," he interrupted me. 

   "I love you.." I still had to say it. 

   "I love you too," the tears from his eyes came faster. I've never seen his cry before. Selina and Bruce kept their distance, yet also looked very sad. Bruce held on to her and kept hoping everything would turn out okay in the end.

   All of a sudden, my organs shut down. I couldn't feel anything anymore. My eyesight was completely gone and everything just looked white. 

   "Rebecca? Rebecca!" Edward tried to shake me awake, but noticed I was unresponsive.
