"Alright, it's clear."
He said motioning for MM to follow. He was smart enough to know he wouldn't run. And he knew MM was smart enough to know that if he did he'd receive an arrow to the spine. Not lethal but it would paralyze him and leave him merciless to NW's beating to get the antidote out of him. They still had a couple blocks to go and he had to move. He knew the cops wouldn't expect them to head there. He ran to the next building, always glancing over his shoulder to make sure MM was following.
"C'mon tin grin."

Metal was falling slowly behind. Fact of the matter was he just wasn't as quick as Nightwing. But even so he kept within sight, his grin plastered upon his face that just seemed to expand even more every time Nightwing looked back at him. He knew how he needed to save the day. It was really so amusing.
He wondered what Nightwing would do if he looked back and Metal wasn't there. Probably have a complete freak out. That might be funny. Maybe just maybe...
Metal paused to look over the edge of a building, wondering if he'd make the fall if he jumped...

He glanced over his shoulder and saw MM looking down. He shook his head and turned around.
"Feel free to jump. It'd be one less psycho in this world. Cordyceps can be stopped, we might just lose some people in the process."
He said with a smirk.
"Now c'mon before I change my mind and push you myself."
He said before continuing to move. He knew MM wouldn't make this easy on him. Of course he knew there'd be a lot more to to come. He knew MM was too complex for the game to be so damn simple as escorting him to the top of Gotham PD. Although what he did when he got there was another matter all together.

Metal merely giggles and looked back towards Nightwing. "Oh you just wait Wingman. We're just getting started tonight." He hurried forward, following close behind until they reached the toward. Above the towar the old Batsignal still stood, although the glass long gone. Inside it a man hung, drapped in black, his arms spread wide like the Batman. Metalmouth gasped when he saw it. "Oh my! Looks like someone's trying to remake the old symbol. Pity there's no one out there to answer the call of the Batman."

"What the hell?"
He was almost distracted, probably something MM had planned on so he could get away without giving the antidote. While this was weird it wasn't that weird and it wasn't the first time he'd seen death. He like most people of the world watched heroes and villains die on national TV.
"Alright tin grin, I got you here. Now give me the antidote..."
He said stepping up close to him, using the intimidation factor he'd learned from his dad and grandfather. He knew it wouldn't work on a psycho, just as Batman could never intimidate the Joker, but it was worth a shot.

As Nightwing came closer Metal Mouth just stood as he was, grinning wildly. He had expected a bigger reaction from that when someone was in trouble. "Tsk tsk. You're not hero. Leaving someone to hang there and suffer." Metal shook his head, "Really Nightwing you should be ashamed."
He tilted his head from side to side then. "I don't have it on me. And it's not here. But I can tell you where you'll find it. The light will show you. I fixed it myself." He pointed at the giant skylight that the unconscious man hung from. "It'll also show you where another one of my victims are. She don't have much time though, we'll have to hurry fast."

He clenched his fist as MM began to play with him more now. Having to escort him out of the bank where he infected so many people was bad enough. But now he has to escort him around again. That's just going to be very annoying.
"Ok then let's go."
He said crossing his arms. He didn't care if he had to pick him up and carry him, he'd do it. He had his own issues to deal with right now so MM would have to wait.
"I need that antidote."

Metal Mouth rolled his eyes. "Just play the game right you big idiot! I told you how to get there. The light!" He pointed at it. "You have to turn it on!" Walking over to the edge of the building, Metal sat upon it and grinned. He crossed one leg over the other and placed his hands upon it. It was clear he had no intention of going anywhere until Nightwing turned the batsignal on.

"God damn it...."
He said shaking his head. It was really hard not to just either shove him off the building or put an arrow into his skull. But for now he didn't have a choice, he had to play the game. Although he was impressed he'd managed to get to the top of Gotham PD undetected and set this up. He flipped the light on and watched to see where it pointed, wondering where he'd have to go now. Although he guessed it would be smack in the middle of Crime Alley.

As the giant bulb illuminated the body let out a wild cry of pain, his skin burning from the heat. Metal merely giggled and laughed out as Nightwing injured the innocent man. It was all too much fun, making the good guy do such naught naught things. As the signal lit the sky, it sent a signal over the city and several others all over lit up as well.
Then, as if all on cute the lights being manned by unseen thugs turned in the same direction, their beams crossing over Gotham bridge. Metal Mouth jumped up and down with delight for how well the plan was going.
“There! There it is Wing man! Your cure can be found on the Bridge! And just as soon as you escort me safely there, you'll get what you asked for... ” His grin turned dark and sinister.

He watched as the lights all pointed to the bridge and nodded his head. He picked up on MM's tone but wasn't about to say anything now. He knew there was more coming and he'd probably need to keep him alive for now. He shook his head as he looked over at the bridge his scanners not picking anything else up at that distance. He flipped his light off and then turned to MM.
"Well, let's get this over with tin grin."
He then began to jump to the next building actually hoping MM would mess up and fail to his death.

Metal hung back. He laughed and watched Nightwing start leaping away. He jumped back up onto the ledge of the building and a suddenly noise erupted. It was the whirling of helicopter blades and from below a large black police helicopter appeared but it was manned by more clownish thugs.
"You can go that way if you want Nighty! But I think i'll go in style!"

NW stopped dead, reaching for his bow when he saw the police helicopter. However when he saw the pilot he sighed and glanced back over to MM.
"I don't trust you enough to travel with you like that."
He said shaking his head as he continued on his way. He activated his adrenaline rush and began to run faster, jumping an entire street on his way. He needed to get that and get it fast. Not to mention he knew there'd be more problems on the way. Not to mention getting to the now infected people. He'd been tuned into the police band and had picked up a few reports of him fleeing with Metal Mouth and firing on a sniper.

Metal cackled as the helicopter took off. "Suit yourself Nighty! By the way, you LOOSE!" His laughter could be heard as the copter took off into the sky.
At the bridge, dangling from the underside, a woman had been tied unconscious. A boat had noticed her and now the crew was in the process of getting her down. What they didn't see was she held in her hands the trigger for a large explosive. Without pressure on the release the whole bridge would blow...
Meanwhile, the victims at the bank had been taken to the hospital. After blood tests and a lot of work it was determined they had each been injected with water and green food coloring.

Nightwing stopped dead in his tracks and drew his 9mm from the back compartment in his suit. He turned back to the helicopter and raised the gun up. He began to fire rapidly at the tail rotor and the fuel tank.
"This isn't over Metal Mouth!"
He yelled as he emptied the clip into the helicopter. No doubt the bullets had done some damage. As he stared at the helicopter he caught the number on it. No doubt it would be dumped and destroyed but if it wasn't he'd get everything he needed off of it.
