March Forth

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

Who: Edward Nigma/The Riddler and The Major
What: Declarations of war, my friend. Nothing out of the ordinary.
Where: The Legion of Doom HQ
When: March 4th
Warnings: Egomaniac super villains and the Nazi cyborgs who hate them (violence and imagery warnings, possibly language as well)

It isn't obvious. Not at first. And why should the Legion HQ seem dangerous. Only a fool, as demonstrated before, would try and break in. It's too well trapped and guarded, even on its own. So there should be no reason to worry.

And yet, coming from one of the rooms, there's a noise. One of the smaller rooms, meant perhaps at one time as a lab for one of the more scientifically inclined members who never moved their devices over. Or maybe as an interrogation room. But it's bare aside from a few chairs and a table. There shouldn't be anything suspect of it.

But it's hard not to hear. Perhaps easy at first, but it's like an earworm. And a quiet, distant sound plays from within it.

...Odd. Aside from the usual gentle hum of machinery and the occasional hiss from the air vents, the Hall of Doom is usually rather quiet. But there's a noise echoing through the narrow underground corridors. And as the Riddler draws nearer to the small little room, fingers cautiously curled around his cane as he stands, framed, in the doorway... he recognizes it.

It's the sound of Edward's own voice.
