Bullock rolled his eyes, "Yes, of Master of the..."
Montoya lightly elbowed the bulkier detective, "Harvey, let's just concentrate on catching Ginsu Princess, instead of the insult contest."
Vision stopped near a warehouse and slightly tilted his head to one side, as if in confusion.

Arell took a long drag on his smoke as he walked down to Crime Alley, twirling the Confederate pistol like he saw off an old Gene Autry movie.

Vision turned toward Detective Bullock, "It appears that the trail ends here at the edge of the street. Perhaps the two of them took a vehicle from here."
Bullock scratched his head just under his rumpled hat, "Or... They took a cab. Hey, Croc Hunter! Could ya ask your cabbie friend if there was cab pick up right here just before dawn!?"

Arell leaned up on a lamp-post and flagged down the cab. Antigua rolled down the window and the Jamaican poked her head out.
"'Ey, 'Rell! What's new today, mon?" she asked as he smoked.
"Dem two gumshoes over dere wanna know if'n ya picked up anyone befo' dawn." Arell said, explaining the situation.
"Nah, mon. I had to get some sleep." the Jamaican said. "Anytin' ya need today?" she asked.
"Can you check up on Cat-girl fo' me? I ain't seen 'er in a while." the Cajun replied.
"So you two togedder or sometin'?" Antigua asked, a smile on her face.
"It's a lon' story. Thanks, Antigua!" Arell said as Antigua did a burnout down the road and Arell went back to the two detectives.
"Not dat she knew of. She was asleep." he said as he took a puff.

Bullock nodded, "Thanks anyway. Well... If they didn't pick up a cab. They drove from here in a vehicle belongin' ta either Miss Ginsu or our mystery guest. Hey Montoya.."
The lady detective already pulled out her cell, "Way ahead of you, Harvey."
After a couple of minutes, Montoya ended her call to dispatch, "One of the patrols spotted a vehicle almost where you're standing Harvey earily this morning. An old black Mercedes belonging to one Anton Nicolescu: one of the street bosses for the Romanian Syndicate. The vics worked for him."

Arell looked almost confused. "So lemme git dis straight. The Romanian Mob hired some'un t' take out deir own guys? Not even Razolli would do dat!" he said, honestly confused.

Both Montoya and Bullock shook their heads. Bullock spoke up, "Maybe, she was after Nicolescu and needs him alive for some reason."
Vision agreed, "That does seem to be a logical theory."

Bullock groaned, "Oh great. It just gets better and better. We're on our way, Jim."
Bullock hung up the cell and turned toward the everybody else, "Appearently, we got a new nutcase pretending to be the Joker killing people at Arkham. We need to get over there yesterday," glancing to both Gator Man and Vision, "And you two are invited plus any other help you can muster. Ya comin?"
The policemen not in collecting evidence at the scene started to gear up to get over to Arkham.
Vision stated, "I will follow as you request."

Arell took up a smoke. "I'm in. 'Dis nutcase gotta get hisself rehabilitated." the Cajun said as he started off towards Arkham.
((Exit Arell to Arkham))

Detectives Bullock and Montoya, and the other police officers get in their vehicles and proceed to Arkham with lights and sirens. Vision flies overhead following the procession.

The information gathered from Nicolescu was dissappointing. Still, a deal was a deal. Yuriko would hold up her end of the bargain, as long as Nicolescu kept up his. While Anton was checking with his contacts in New York and Metropolis for Yuriko's targets, she stalked a few Albanians to a warehouse.
The job was simple. Go in and wipe out the Albanians, grab the merchandise, and come back. Looking over what the Albanians laughing called security, this looked like it would be easy.
