The Joker//Opening Act: The Funhouse of Mirrors//Video
[The feed turns on, giving the facility a disorienting view of a strange, bloody room, disturbingly akin to something they might have seen a few weeks ago, in the torture chambers. there's what looks like steel wire spread across the floor, hooked to the walls at random intervals, and the room seems to go on infinitely... On closer inspection there seems to be mirrors covering every available surface. it's obvious there's at least one person in the room, breathing raggedly, probably the source of the trail of blood across the floor.]
U-uhm.
[A voice finally comes over the feed, choked with tears and sniffles. Those familiar with the girl might identify it as Kairi, albeit a very depressed Kairi. Yet for some reason her voice sounds distant, like shes not even directing herself towards the feed, and a small blinking light can be seen reflecting through the mirrors. On the network, however, it becomes obvious the reason for this debacle-- there are two feeds going on simultaneously, one watching her and her savior, and one from her perspective.]
I cant... I don't. Know who it is that saved me, we've never met before. And. He's hurt, really hurt. I can't heal him enough. I'm not powerful or skilled.
[If she wasn't invisible, her face would be stained with tears, her whole body shaking.]
Please I... really need help. I don't even know where we are, or how I got here... I think i was stunned with magic... or something. I cant really move too well...
[She murmurs another soft cry of grief, green light mirroring through the room as she once again castes a heal spell on the man.]
I'm really scared.
[The frame shivers a bit, almost as if the person holding it was twitching...shivering... maybe even suppressing laughter. The red light in the mirrors gleams, and the blood on the floor moves as well as the other person lying there with Kairi summons up his will and lets out a grunt of effort. A silver disk appears almost magically, spinning through the air and knocking the 'berry wildly, its owner ducking for cover.
The unseen watcher recovers their 'berry and turns it off just as Steve Rogers' breathing comes to a rasping halt.]
