After escaping from a possible arrest from James Gordon: the current Captain of the Gotham City Police Department, he had used the other Gotham Asylum patients that he freed to distract Gordon. After all, he had another visit to attend to before he was going to possibly get caught by those foolish police officers.

This second visit was going towards a certain someone, a certain someone that he thought he could rely on back then, a certain someone he used to call a "friend": you. Firstly, as he walked towards your home, oh and yes, after three consecutive years of constant torture within those walls, he had managed to get quite the information as to where you had lived before setting his sights to Gotham Asylum to get back at that pathetic Warden Reed for everything he has done, and when he got what he needed, to no one's surprise; your location hadn't changed one bit.

Secondly, he was quite mad that he couldn't just kill both you and Gordon within that moment, it'll draw too much attention to him and will definitely get him arrested, it was already enough that the mayor of Gotham, Oswald Cobblepot, was wanting him for whatever reason it was. All that necessarily mattered was one specific goal and one goal only: to get his revenge.

By passing through the alleyways and secret spots of the horrid streets, he had finally found the location that he sought out for after his interaction with Captain Gordon. Despite his mind being originally clouded with the Scarecrow and nothing but the Scarecrow, he reminded himself about the secret passage that the two of you used to go through back then, and thus, went through that.

As you paced around your house, checking your windows and doors, you heard quiet footsteps coming from the hallways—but before you could turn around and check out the scene, a scythe wrapped around your stomach, stopping you from doing so.
