- Lady Arkham: [crackle, shockwave, debris scattering, bodies smashing into rubble, footsteps] You know your flaw, Miss Bertinelli?
- Huntress: [chuckle, cough, blood spatter, chuckle] I have to pick just one?
- Lady Arkham: It's pride.
- Huntress: I was hoping for wrath...
- Arkham X: Based off those short-shorts, I was going to say lust. [crackle, blast, body smashing into rubble] Ow.
- Lady Arkham: You claim to fight for the law, yet believe that it's yours to break. You're not above the law... you're not above justice.
- Oracle: What is she talking about, Hel?
- Huntress: Not now, Red... [rapid footsteps, cape rustling, whack, whack, whack, metallic clank, crossbow fire, crackle, blast, skidding]
- Cerberus: It's okay. I got you. You okay, Huntress?
- Huntress: That staff thing. It hits like a bus. We can't get close to her while she has it.
- Cerberus: I think I've seen that tech before somewhere... Experimental ARGUS crowd control tech, maybe?
- Arkham X: [rapid footsteps, blast, whoosh, skidding] Hey guys... Mind if I bunker in here with you? Anyway, I overheard your talk-
- Lady Arkham: Come out of hiding, cowards! Face your punishment! [crackle, blast, rubble scattering, crackle, blast, rubble scattering]
- Cerberus: How'd you overhear us with all this blasting going off?
- Huntress: He likes to steal our comms equipment.
- Arkham X: Bingo! Anyway, uh, so... here's the thing. Before I was the dashing rogue I am today, I may have done time in Arkham... and the thing is, that thing she's got was something that Dr. Crane and Dr. Strange invented a few years back. It was meant to be a less-lethal means of riot control but was deemed too destructive to the facility-
- Cerberus: To the facility? Not the prisoners?
- Arkham X: Did I stutter? No... Listen up, Catman.
- Cerberus: Cerberus-
- Arkham X: Whatevs! Point is, they sold the tech to ARGUS. I bet that's where she got it from.
- Huntress: Or she stole the prototype from Arkham.
- Arkham X: Oh, y'know... that would make more sense... seeing as she calls herself Lady Arkham.
- Cerberus: Okay, that's great. How do we disable that weapon?
- Arkham X: You don't.
- Cerberus: So why bring it up?!
- Arkham X: You seemed curious... and I didn't want the curiosity to kill you.
- Cerberus: I'm not a cat! Cerberus is a dog! A three-headed dog from Hell!
- Lady Arkham: [footsteps, blast, rubble scattering, bodies skidding and bouncing] Found you! [crackle, blast, thud, thud, pained hiss, blast]
