It had been an exhausting week in Gotham. Between the earthquake, mysterious killings, general hostility, and Batman throwing people into the Asylum nobody had any energy left. Lex Luthor hadn’t had time to sleep since the earthquake, he was doing his very best to seize this opportunity to take over Gotham. Having seen all of his accomplices fall one by one had only strengthened his resolve, as Freezy had known the whole time he was the strongest of them all.
Tia was convinced she knew his true identity, but convincing You_Fool of that was proving difficult. She knew there was only one thing left to do… she was willing to sacrifice herself in order to make sure Gotham didn’t come under Luthor’s control. There was only one thing she was sure would work… in a city where all but 3 people had been killed gaining a man’s interest was easy.
Lex’s ego didn’t allow him to turn down the dinner invitation, and completely blinded him to her real motives. He showed up at Tia’s apartment right at 8:00 as she had requested, and was surprised when she asked him to come to the basement with her. “The earthquake has caused a bit of a leak, and I could really use someone of your…stature to help me make the repair.” she said leading him to the door. He was surprised at how well re-enforced the door was, it didn’t look like there was any way to break it down. “This was always a last resort safe room.” Tia explained. He took 2 steps into the basement, and quickly realized there was more than a little leak... the entire basement was filling up with water. Alarmed, he turned around just as she slammed the door behind them, threw all 4 dead bolts, and swallowed the key. Tia looked at him and said “I know who you are…and I can’t let you win.” She then sat down on the stairs and prepared to die. Freezy went into a rage and spent his remaining minutes desperately trying to find a way out, to no avail.

You_Fool woke up to find a note slid under his door. “It pains me terribly that you didn’t trust me, but I have taken care of everything, good luck in your endeavors – Tia.” He walked outside, and the Gotham seemed even quieter than usual. He quickly realized that he was literally the only one left. Alone, completely alone, in what just a week ago was the biggest metropolis in the country. Not knowing what to do…he sat down on a pile of rubble, and began crying. Alone, for the rest of his days, if only he had listened to Tia they could have repopulated and rebuilt, but no… he is stuck in Gotham alone for the rest of his days, to fall asleep every night crying while he masturbates.
