Batman Arkham Asylum CYOA Jump

1000 CP to spend

Origin: Bat-Family(-100 CP) - Thomas Elliot's son with Lucy Malphas, who is the last member of the declining Malphas family. Due to Thomas missing, he was taken in by Bruce Wayne as a favor from Lucy on her deathbed. Puzzled out Bruce's secret as Batman at age 13, trained extensively with Bruce for two years before finally debuting 6 months before Arkham Asylum.

Perks:

Comic-Book Looks (-100 CP): Strong jaws, herculean physiques, or beautiful curves. More than a few of the people around here are amazingly beautiful/handsome, and with the purchase of this, so are you.

It's Me, Remember? (Free for Bat Family): You know how to keep projects and

operations secret. You could build an (admittedly small) hi-tech base underneath an insane asylum without anyone being the wiser. Looks like you've at least inherited Batman's ability to keep things secret.

World's Greatest Detective (-100 CP for Bat Family): You a fan of Holmes? Poirot? You

must be, because now you're a pretty great detective yourself. You pick up the slightest details about your environment, and are able to connect clues together nearly instantaneously. With this, you might just become the equal to Batman as a detective.

Enough To Kill 10 Men (-200 CP for Bat Family): You possess a determination rivaled only by Batman himself. You possess the will to keep your sanity even after you've been injected with a drug that turns it's users into ten-feet tall raving lunatics, and to keep going after being injected with enough Fear Gas to kill 10 men. Suffice to say, its going to take a lot to put you down and keep you there.

Martial Arts Grandmaster (-300 CP for Bat Family): You possess an intense and

crushing mastery of martial arts. In fights, you have to actively hold back to keep from killing people. You know just what spots to target to break bones, and where to punch to incapacitate someone. With just this, you could go up against some of the strongest superhumans and have good odds of winning.

Items:

Belt O' Tools (Free for Bat Family): Batman graciously seems to have loaned you a belt

containing the tools that he'll be using for this adventure. This includes stuff like remotely

applied explosives gel capable of bringing down walls (though never seems to kill when blown up near someones feet), to a cryptographic sequencer able to track signals, hack terminals, and listen to live radio broadcasts. ...How did he know you'd be needing this stuff?

Animal Suit (-100 CP for Bat Family): A hightech set of body armor themed after an

animal of your choice (DCAU Damian Wayne Robin suit). The head piece contains advanced electronics equipment that scans the environment for information and clues relevant to the situation. It can pick up anything from gaseous alcohol molecules that'll lead you to a crooked guard, to traces of tobacco on the ground to lead you to a hostage. You may also import a set of armor you already own to gain these qualities.

Bat Wing (-200 CP for Bat Family): Hmm, seems like you've picked up one of Batman's

spare vehicles. The Batwing is a supersonic aircraft faster than many jet fighters, possess advanced stealth systems that make it invisible to radar, and can be operated remotely, or operate autonomously.

Bat Cave (-300 CP for Bat Family): A series of platforms and bridges situated within a

small cave. Contains a computer with immense analytical abilities, a landing platform for any aerial vehicles you have, and some workshops for working on gadgets and gizmos. After the jump this can either be attached to the warehouse, or will appear somewhere nearby.

Drawbacks:

Seductive Ivy (+400 CP): Aw, isn't Poison Ivy simply the greatest? Her attempts to save the environment, her personality, her intelligence...She's just the best, and you're totally not saying this because she's brainwashed you with pheromones are anything. You'd be willing to do anything for her, even fight the Batman.

1. Batman and Robin

One thing that Batman fans have know since forever is that Batman is a hard taskmaster. From Dick complaining about never being good enough to Jason passing out on the couch from a grueling workout it is a universal fact that Batman is a hard taskmaster. However, knowing it and experiencing it are two completely different things.

Ever since I've started training to become he's partner, It's been one grueling task after another. From the long sparing sessions to the detective work, it's all been extremely difficult. If it weren't for my above average stats I wouldn't have been able to keep up. Then again, I wouldn't be surprised if he purposefully made the training harder after watching me bench press 180 lbs. at the age of 13.

However, I can't complain that the results aren't there. I've never felt so light and aware before. Don't get me wrong I definitely love being able to bench press 180 lbs at 13, It's just that now that I have the training to go along with it I can use it more effectively. The difference in efficiency is staggering. The closest comparison that I can make to it is Naruto's chakra control end of shippuden vs Naruto's chakra control at the start of the series. Naruto at the end of shippuden is more about efficiently using every last drop of chakra that he has while Naruto in the beginning just brunt forces it.

But I digress, After I've completed the brunt of the training all that I really needed was experience.

"Pay attention." Bruce says.

We were in the bat cave facing the computer with a list of rogues on the screen.

"I am" I replied coolly.

He raises an eyebrow, asking me to reiterate.

"You were debriefing about which of your rogues are currently out of Arkham and who's most like to make a move first."

He inclines his head to tell me to continue.

"Currently the only ones out of Arkham are Two Face, Penguin and Joker. Two Face is probably going to lay low for awhile, Penguin is now a "law abiding" citizen and Joker is most likely planning his next crime as we speak."

Nodding his head in affirmative he turns back to the screen and turns it off. Facing me once again he finally speaks, "Suit up it's time for patrol."

With a smirk on my face I turn around and ascend to the platform holding our uniforms with a set of acrobatic flips.

Patrolling with Batman actually involves more than just running around rooftops looking for crimes. It's a very methodical process that even factors things such as the weather. Because depending on how well equipped a criminal is will decide where we patrol. For example, if it's freezing outside the chances are that most muggers and drug dealers and other low level grunts are most likely inside their home trying to warm up. However groups like the Falcones don't care about stuff like because they have money to buy warm clothes.

As we made our way through East End District the radio in our cowls goes off

"Dispatch we have a situation at City Hall, the Joker is inside holding the Mayor Hostage! So far he hasn't made any demands yet. He is armed and extremely dangerous proceed with caution!"

It looks like it's about time for Arkham Asylum to begin.

Capturing the Joker was easier than any other time that we've done it before. Other than a few bombs rigged with Joker gas and his goons it was fairly easy. If I didn't know the plot of Arkham Asylum I would have actually thought that it was all over and done with.

While Batman took him to Arkham Asylum I continued to patrol around Gotham waiting for the inevitable call about the brea-

"Robin this is Oracle, we have situation at Arkham."

Speak of the devil.

Chapter 2

As I flew over the bay on my way to Arkham I taught about the battlefield I was about to enter. While I do have experience fighting Batman's rogues, I was always by his side with him there to back me up should something happen. Now I'm going to face some of them on my own. The original plan was for me to get to Arkham and meet up with Batman. However, he decided that I was finally good enough to face some of them on my own.

"Robin, Joker plans to build an army of Titan fueled mutants. I'm sending you a scan of the spores found in the sewers. According to Ivy, it should be helpful in synthesizing an antidote."

"On it."

I didn't think that we were already that far into the story line, then again the only reason why the game was so long was because it was a game not a real life situation where a man who specifically trained for this was dealing with the situation.

Searching the computer on the plane for the location barely takes two seconds, and turning the wheel to change course takes another second. By the time that I make it there it hasn't even been 3 minutes. As I park the plane, I take a look at the cave under Arkham. The similarities between this cave and the one from the game is uncanny. The only difference being that the boxes contain backup gadgets.

Making my way to the computer, I upload the scan and set the computer to begin synthesizing the formula. While the computer works on that I make my way to the boxes to see if I can find anything useful that isn't already in my belt.

Looking over the crates I realize that Batman really is prepared for most situations. All the gadgets in the boxes are already in our belts. It's moments like these that remind me that this is real and not a game. The reason why Batman had to slowly acquire these is because if the players started out with all of them in the game it would have taken a much shorter time to finish it.

*beep*

As I return to the computer I feel the cave shake all around me and I'm immediately on guard. With a cry of alarm I leap backwards just in time to avoid a large vine erupting from the ground. I rush towards the computer while dodging vines bursting out from beneath me. I'm only about a meter away when I feel something start to wrap around my ankle. Without a second thought, I immediately leap and turn into the air while pulling out a birdarang from my belt, cutting the small vine before it went taut. As soon as I land I sprint the last meter and immediately send the cure to Batman. However just as I finish the ground erupts under me and a large vine wrap around my torso before darkness is all I see.

Chapter 3

When I come to consciousness I make sure to keep my muscles relaxed and listen for any clues as to where I am.

"I know you're awake"

I open my eyes and face the voice. It's a voice that I'm intimately familiar with.

"Pam." I intone. That explains why I no longer have my belt and hanging upside down with my hands bound and no room to move. She's always been one of Bruce's smarter rogues. However, it doesn't explain how she knew that I woke up. The only way to know would be to feel my breathing change, but she's never been that receptive to her plant's sensory input. Sure she could control and sense them but she's never been able to feel what they felt. Nothing's changes about her since I've last seen her and the only thing that changed about the plants would be...

"The Titan formula" I say stoically.

"You sound and act like him more and more everyday." she says back

I smirk back at her and say "Yea right, the big man is as stiff as a wall. All jokes aside though it's good to see you. Looking sexy as always."

With a raised eyebrow she answers "At least you're a better flirt than your predecessor. Unfortunately for you I'm still not interested."

"So, what's the plan? Are you going to help the Joker stop Batman or are you going to strike out on your own and escape Arkham. Or is it option C where you stay and hoard all the Titan formula to supposedly make your plants stronger?"

Her face hardens as she asks "Supposedly? Explain."

"Think about it Ivy, when has the Joker ever made something that doesn't destroy. From his laughing gas to his special brand of acid. As a matter of fact have you seen what happens to his thugs' bodies after they inject it. After a while their body slowly starts to degrade along with their minds."

By the time I'm halfway done talking she's already pacing around the room. Which is perfect since it gives me time to administer the antidote without her looking.

Clenching my fist in a seemingly random pattern ejects a razor thin needle from the fingertip of my right hand's glove. With a show of trying to escape I plunge the needle into my left forearm just as she finishes pacing.

"You're right" she says. "However that doesn't mean that I can't revise it to make a better one. Nice try little bird." Having said that she walks to me and blows a pink dust, some pheromones, into my face. After a few seconds I can already feel my mind shifting towards accepting her as my master. It wasn't a hard concept to welcome. I've known Ivy ever since I saved her from a rapist when she was still Pamela. The rapist somehow managed to cut my mask in half and as it fell on the floor she managed to see my face. Ever since then she's been my best friend, even though I was 14 and she'd just graduated from college. So of course she would be my master, after all she's always been there for me so I'll do anything for her.

Looking at my master and best friend I speak "Ugh, can you please put me down. I can feel the blood rushing to my head."

She stares at me for a few seconds before instructing the plant to drop me. Tucking my knees to my chest I roll softly as I land. I take a moment to crack neck then, with a smirk on my face I turn to her. Just as I open my mouth to speak the door behind us opens and in walks the boss man, or would it be ex-boss man now.

Before he has a chance to speak I explode into run as Ivy yells "Stop him."

Without even waiting for her to finish I plant my hands on the ground launching myself into the air. Using my momentum built up from gravity I swing my right leg into a roundhouse kick and tilt my head to the right just as his fist passes by in an attempt to counterattack. From there we transition into a flurry of punches and kicks. While Batman is definitely the more experienced and skilled one of us, I am definitely the more agile one. With one more kick using my right leg blocked I take the opportunity to plant my left leg on his chest to launch into the air, retrieve two birdarangs from my belt and twist to arrive at his back. Landing just as he begins to turn to face me, I impale a birdarang into a gap in his armor where I know it will get stuck. With the press of a button the birdarang chocks him giving me time to leap at his face with my knee. With a resounding crack his head snaps back giving me another second to land and whip my left leg at his right knee. The blow forces him on a knee and I take the opportunity to sidekick him to the face sending him sprawling to the ground. Knowing that he wouldn't be down for long I begin a followup just as the antidote kicks in.
