It was clear that De was nuts, but as 'Vok had come to find out over his many years traveling the universe, loons beget loons. He didn't know why he was running toward the scary men and their equally frightening little girl companion, but sure enough he was. The only thing 'Vok could figure as he rushed a few feet behind his teammate was that De had yelled for them to run, and that was what he was doing. Was there a plan? The shape shifter had no clue.
But he did know that he didn't want the Scarecrow to get away. 'Vok had too many sins to work off to be slacking off on his penance. He knew that he would never be out from under the government's thumb if he didn't do his job, and letting some Arkham quack slip through his fingers and into the hands of the Grim Reaper probably wasn't Spooky's idea of getting the job done. So here he was, getting ready to dive headfirst into some magical portal. And to be honest, âVok knew nothing about magic portals, let alone how to handle three obviously bad-ass demigods and one insane fugitive that happened to be attempting an escape through one.
Doing the only thing he could to help facilitate whatever plan De had cooked up, âVok dove for the opening. As he did he shouted back to the trio of alluring teammates that stood behind him, âI thought we had an accord, ladies...care to join the insanity?â That was the last thing âVok managed to say before his mouth disappeared as he transformed himself into a large stone archway, intended to solidify the mystical passage long enough for De to carry out his scheme.
