Chapter 1

Bad Dog!

"Ma come on! You can't be serious, a play?" Kira sighed trying to win the useless argument.

Kira De Luca is a seventeen year old skilled in gymnastics and instruments. She's like any normal teen. But she has a very good careful eye for her younger sisters.

"But Kira it's goanna be fun! Right ma?" Carina smiled broadly.

Carina De Luca a cute little nine year old with a big heart. She's smarter than she looks and is a skilled artist even for her age. But like all kids she has a very soft sweet tooth.

"Ohh hush Carina. Ma what play you goanna do?" Kenna ask interested.

Kenna De Luca a clever fourteen year old. She's not like normal girls her age. She likes to keep to hr childhood and stay to herself or her family. But get her going on plays and books she'll keep you interested for hours.

"I'm not sure. Want to help sweetie?" Soo-young smiled at her daughters.

Soo-young De Luca. A kind 35 year old (Forgot how old Bruce is if anyone knows please tell me) single mom. She would have the normal looks of any asian woman. The slender body and long hair. The Deep brown colored almond eyes. But her features got mixed with her Italian and irish backgrounds. A trait her kids inherited. She's roughly 5'4 and has the long dark hair and almond eyes. But a stunning green instead of brown.

Kira was the only one who escaped the hazel mix out of the three, with dark brown eyes. Each getting the almond eyes and china doll faces the slowly showing there European backgrounds. Kenna growing freckles, and Carina and her cubby baby face now slimming and starting to hit the dreaded age of puberty. Oi I'm getting off topic back to the story.

"Well I'm not doing it." Kira stated tightening her hold on the leash, "You'll support me right Demon?"

She leaned down and scratched the Siberian husky behind the ear. He responded happily with a bark. Carina grasped her mother's hand tightly as she pointed.

"Ma a squirrel!" she squealed.

"Ohh no." Soo-young gasped.

"Kira hold on tight." Kenna ordered.

"I think I know that Ken. Just distract him." Kira hissed.

"Girls calm down. Here give him to me. I'll make sure he doesn't run off." Soo-young said calmly.

"Ma you sure I have-Demon!" Kira exclaimed as he charged forward unexpectedly.

He wrenched his way from her hold and charged after the squirrel. The three ladies looked at the seven teen year old and shook there heads. Kira just shrugged and they all took off after the fast little devil. They lost him after a few turns and stopped looking around.

"Damn where did he go?" Soo-young sighed and rubbed her temples.

"Sorry ma I thought I had him." Kira sighed catching her breathe.

"It's okay sweetie. Lets just hope no one's eating a hot dog, or any food for that matter." Soo-young joked.

"Come on guys we'll never find him just standing here. DEMON!! WHERE ARE YOU!!" Kenna shouted.

'Poor thing…' Soo-young thought and helped with calling the escaped mutt. After a few calls and about half an hour later the could hear a yell. The four run to the sound and gasped.

"No Demon down!" Soo-young shouted as they rushed to the poor man.

"Demon!" Carina yelled and tried to help restrain the dog.

"I'm so sorry. He ran away from us I'm so-ohh crap I'm not goanna be sued am I?" Soo-Young joked as she looked up at the man.

"Demon your so dead." Kira joked ruffling his neck.

Bruce Wayne stood there brushing off his suit with a smile. Carina hugged Demon close as Kenna tried to help Bruce.

"No your not goanna get sued. But you do owe me a pretzel." he joked.

"That I can do. Is your suit damaged?" Soo-young asked handing Kira the leash.

"It's fine a little tear but it's okay." He said gesturing towards his ripped sleeve.

"Ohh Demon." Kenna scolded the dog.

"It's okay really. Umm I guess I don't have to introduce myself but what's your name?" Bruce asked extended his hand towards Soo-young.

"I'm Soo-"

"I'm Carina! Hi!" Carina said gripping his hand in a shake.

"Hello Carina nice to meet you." Bruce smiled at the nine year old.

"Sorry about that, I'm Soo-Young De Luca and these are my girls, Kira, Kenna, and Carina." Soo-young smiled.

"And this little pest is our dog Demon." Kenna smiled.

"I see, so Soo-young right?" he said.

"Yes." She smiled placing a firm hand on Carina.

"Umm…you guys hungry? You owe me a pretzel." He joked.

"Sure but we gotta get home soon it's almost dinner time." Soo-Young smiled.

"Okay then lets get going." Bruce smiled leading the way.

"Ma should we really be doing this?" Kira whispered to her mom.

"It's okay it's just a pretzel then we'll leave. It's the least we can do. Plus it's either that or get sued." Soo-young sighed.

"I told you I'm not going to sue you." Bruce joked as they approached the pretzel stand.

"Still." Kira glared at him.

Kira never like his whole image thing. The billionaire Playboy. Her mother has been hurt enough. She's not about to let her get hurt again. As Soo-Young paid for the pretzel Bruce tried to play some witty banter which she gently declined.

"So you won't tell me anything about you?" Bruce chuckled.

"Yup. There's nothing to tell. Here is your pretzel and I'll send you a check for your suit. Come on girls we gotta get dinner going." Soo-Young smiled grabbing Carina's hand.

Bruce reached out and grabbed Soo-young's free hand making her turn around. Kira restrained yelling at him.

"Wait you don't have a wedding ring on. Are you single?" Bruce asked.

"That's it! Look buddy were sorry our dog jumped you but were paying you back so don't go using my mother as one of your one night stands okay. We'll pay you back for your suit but take a hint and back off you son of a-"

"Kira De Luca hold your tongue." Soo-young said sternly.

Kira stopped mid sentence and glared at the man before her. She turned on her heel and walked with Kenna and Demon towards the direction of the house. Soo-young looked sadly after her daughter and sighed. She turned to Bruce and smiled softly.

"Sorry about her. Were going through hard times right now. But to be honest if I am single or not is none of your business." Soo-young said politely.

"I understand. I was just hoping to see you again." Bruce chuckled nervous.

"Still forgive her. I'll send you a check. Goodbye Mr. Wayne. Come on Carina." She sighed.

"Wait Ma. Mr. Wayne?" Carina smiled running back to the man.

"Yes?" he smiled kneeling to her level.

"Mommy is single just so you know. I don't believe in those reporters and what they say. What you do is more important and that's god enough for me. So don't hurt mommy." The nine year old stated.

"Carina." Soo-young gasped.

"It's okay don't be cross at her. Good-bye Soo-young. I hope to see you soon." Bruce said.

"Don't count on it Mr. Wayne we live in two different circles. Goodnight." She grinned and she and carina jogged after the other two waiting at the other side of the park.

"Maybe…" He sighed and went to take a bit of his pretzel.

A white blob fell from the sky on the salty treat and he groaned. Today was not a day for pretzels.

Liz: Ugh that was awful what was that Tiger?

Tiger-chan: You don't want to know Lizzie. Ohh there done.

Liz: Okay guys be brutal and tell me what you think.

Tiger-Warning if you send flames you'll get a funny response.

Liz: Yeah some are funny. ^_^.

Both: Read and Review please!
