Reformatted Stairwell

The beams hung over Croc’s shoulders, and he lifted the structure up with a roar.

Batman tensed in preparation to duck, anticipating that Killer Croc would come at him swinging the stairway like a club—but he’d guessed wrong. With both hands Croc threw the stairway at him, and Batman just had time to duck his head and take the impact on his shoulders instead of his face. His left arm went numb and he was knocked over, landing in a tangle of broken beams and bent sheets of steel grating.

With one arm he tried to push himself up, but he didn’t have time to avoid Croc’s follow-up. Leaping into the air, Croc landed on the grating with both feet. Beneath it, Batman was pounded into the floor.

“You want to stomp?” Croc roared. “I can stomp, too!”

Heaving himself to the right so he could keep his good arm under him, Batman shifted the heap of metal and unbalanced his assailant. The creature toppled off and smashed into an edge of the control console, as the force of his own shifting weight slid the remains of the staircase across the floor.

Batman threw it off and scrambled free. He was starting to get some feeling back in the fingers of his left hand, and he was going to need it.
