Inside the warehouse of the Gato & Chat Fur Company
"Come on, let's get her into the pit."
Two men entered the scene, carrying someone, who appeared to be unconscious.
"This was real genius bringing them here," one of the men said. "With Catwoman dead, nobody's going to think of looking in one of her old hideouts."
"So true," the other agreed. "It's the purr-fect crime. That one was for you, Catwoman."
When they reached the pit, they threw Rose in.
She landed hard. By that point, she was groggy, but she was awake. There was dirt underneath her. And it was dark, but she could make out other bodies.
Oh no, she thought. Where am I? Where did those men bring me?
"Rose? Is that you?" a voice in the darkness asked.
It sounded familiar, and she tried to make out the face.
"Who's there?" she asked.
"It's me," the voice answered. "Man, I'm sorry to see you here."
As her eyes adjusted to the darkness, the person stepped forward and she recognized the man in front of her. She was relieved to see a friend here.
"Do you have any idea what this is?" she asked. "Where we are?"
"No," he answered. "I was out of it when they brought me here. I only just came around a short while before they dumped you in here."
"What's with all the bodies?" Rose asked. "Do they just leave us here to starve to death or something?"
"It's funny you should say that!" one of the men called from above the pit. "Someone's starving, but it won't be you. Neither of you will be alive long enough."
The other man flicked a switch, and the entire room was lit up.
Rose could now see more clearly in the pit. There were probably about 4 or 5 bodies strewn about down there, and she noticed there were chunks missing from each of them.
Then she saw the two doors.
"Hey, let's try one of these doors. There's got to be a way out of here."
Beside the doors were two buttons. She assumed they would each open one of the doors. She pushed the first one.
The door on the left slid open. She almost fainted right there when a ferocious tiger leapt out of it.
She panicked and pushed the other button.
The second door opened and a second tiger jumped out into the pit.
"Oh god," was all Nobert could say as he watched the tigers tear Rose apart before they turned toward him.
Meanwhile, back at Commissioner Gordon's Office
"Stand clear," Robin said. "There's no telling what dangers are inside."
Gordon and O'Hara heeded the warning and moved toward the far corner of the room.
Robin took out a stethoscope and tried to listen to the mysterious box on Gordon's desk.
"There's no ticking sound," he said. "It's not likely to be a bomb."
The other two men breathed a little easier.
Robin lifted the lid, slowly.
Coloured smoke began to pour from the box.
"Holy smoke! Get down!" Robin shouted before hitting the ground himself.
The box suddenly exploded and the room was soon filled with smoke.
All three men fell unconcious.
Some time passed, and Gordon began to stir.
"Saints be praised!"
He knew that was O'Hara's voice. At least whatever gas was in that box wasn't deadly.
"O'Hara, thank goodness," Gordon said, as the Chief helped him to his feet. "How's the Boy Wonder?"
"Not so good, Comissioner. Take a look for yourself."
Robin was still on the ground. He had taken most of the impact from the explosion.
"He's not waking up," O'Hara said solemnly.
"There's also this."
He handed Gordon a piece of paper.
"Somehow it was protected inside the box."
Gordon looked it over. It was a riddle.
He read it aloud.
"What is it that's always coming but never arrives?"
"Tomorrow," O'Hara answered, hopelessly.
Rose (Dr) has died.
Nobert has died.
Buffy has died.

"Any final words?" JC asked as he pointed a gun at Henry's head.
"Yeah, you're a c---"
BLAM!!
Henry couldn't believe that JC actually pulled the trigger. He really shot me.
Everyone watched in horror as Henry fell to the ground.
Everyone watched in disbelief as Henry picked himself up off the ground and laughed.
"I never liked you," he said as he lunged toward JC.
JC pulled the trigger two more times.
Henry fell to the ground again,
and this time he stayed there.
Henry has died.

It is still Day 5. With 11 alive, it now takes 6 to lynch.
FYI:
I won't be here to close the thread at that time, but no talking past the deadline. :P
I'll be in class until 9, and since votes sometimes tend to get a bit crazy near the end of day, you'll have to keep track, since I won't be able to update them.

Schrauben and I both unlynched, probably while you were putting the post together.
Just want people who will be copying and working from the post to be aware of those vote changes.
I should already have fixed the original post. But thanks for paying attention.
The day ended at 8:07pm eastern, exactly 24 hours from when it began. It started early because all the actions were in earlier, and I wanted to move away from the later deadlines. I also post the remaining time with each vote count for a reason.
The lynch has tied.
With the Joker dead, the citizens of Gotham rejoiced.
How long will their joy last? Are there still things that go bump in the night?
Find out tomorrow night! Same Bat-time, same Bat-forum!
It is now Night 5.
You have until 9pm eastern Thursday night to submit your night actions.
