If Axel had decided to run, however good he was at running, he wouldn't have gotten far-- whether he would have gotten past the back door at all was doubtful at best, because Batman was already there, waiting. It wasn't in his nature to trust-- especially not someone like Axel-- and while the official strike force was going in the front door, Bruce knew that they couldn't afford to underestimate Axel. As much as he would like to believe that having a heart again would make the Nobody a better person, there was far from a guarantee of that-- in fact, the Joker, his own archnemesis, was perhaps so terrible because of his hearts, because of the dark emotions that roiled through his veins. To make matters more complicated, even if Axel himself had lost his powers, the others in the establishment, his friends, still had their powers and might even use them to attempt to defend him or cover his escape. After all, as one who had once been persecuted by the Queen, he knew well that the Queen's "justice" could at times be anything but just, and there were few here who held any great loyalty to the Queen or her laws.

So for now, at least, until he heard a signal inside, of conflict or of acquiescence, he would wait, hidden in the long shadows of the dying day.
