Never Trust A Mystery Man

Jan 23, 2011 03:16

Who: Edward Nigma, Ema Skye, and BLU Scout (Along with the Smith Family and Officer Grady)
Where: 501 Ricardo Street
When: Sunday, January 23rd
What: The gang decides to follow Edward's plan and investigate the Smiths' home. But it looks like Edward didn't fill them in on the whole plan...
Warnings: Betrayal, and who knows what else if Lucy and Grady get involved. Could get pretty violent.

Edward Nigma stepped out of the Mayfield Police Squad car he'd parked in the driveway of 501 Ricardo Street. He crossed around the front of the car, meeting his fellow officer and conspirator, Nathaniel "Scout" McCann. He glanced into the back window at Ema Skye, who was to remain hidden in the squad car until Edward gave her the signal. After adjusting the policeman's cap perched atop his head, he set off at a brisk stroll down the front path towards the door.

This was it. Today was the day Edward had planned for so long. Today, he would find a way out of Mayfield. He was absolutely sure of it. No more sleeping on the couch while Susan took the bed. No more dealing with Slugger's inane antics and cruel practical jokes. No more hiding himself from Johan. No more poisoned milk. No more drones. No more crazed Postmen, or Officer Grady. No more Mayor. No more Lucy Smith.

No more Mayfield.

The prospect of going back to Gotham certainly excited him, and this was sure this wasn't just another crazy delusion Mayfield had put him under. This was the real deal. Like his idol, Houdini, Edward would make his daring escape today. No matter what the cost. 
He made his way to the doorstep and, after grinning briefly at Scout, rapped twice on the Smiths' front door. No turning back. He took a deep breath.

Showtime.
