It was a cold night in Gotham City, another foster home that sucked completely! My foster parents are pieces of work, Frank was a drunk and Molly was a crack whore- literally. I was one out of five; there are two boys and two girls: Harry, Genny, Lance, and Gwen.
They were good kids but they get in trouble… a lot.
'I can't wait to be eighteen and get out of here.' I thought to myself.
There was a loud crash from the living room and feet pounding on the floor,
"What the fuck was that noise?" yelled Frank, my bedroom door opened and in ran the children. "Susie!" they cried to me with fear in their eyes, "what do we do?" Harry asked his large green eyes stared at me.
I replied "Don't worry, I'll handle it, stay here."
I smiled at them and walked out of my room.
At the top of the stairs stood Frank, "What the hell was that noise, you stupid bitch?"
I held my tongue even though I wanted to wipe the sneer off that disgusting man's face. I looked into the living room and saw the mess from one of the vases that had fallen. I looked back at him as he walked down a few stairs.
"I bumped into a vase and it fell." I stated simply, giving Frank a blank look.
He stormed down the rest of the stairs and grips my arm painfully. He pulled me into the living room looked at the glass on the floor and then looked at me. He spun me around and smacked my face.
"What the fuck were you thinking?" Frank yelled shoving me to the floor, "I want you the fuck out of here you stupid little bitch!"
He started to kick me; once he was done I limped out the door.
"Great, now I have to wait for him to calm down before I can go back." I said to myself as I walked by an alley near the foster home.
I walked for half hour trying not to grimace from the pain and listening to the group of boys that had been following me since I left the home.
I took a deep breath and turned to confront them, they looked at me a smirked.
"Well, well boys looks like we got ourselves a fiery one." Laughed what I guessed to be the leader of their 'gang.'
They moved towards me and before they knew it they were on the ground.
"Yea, you got a woman who can kick your sorry asses any day so beat it." I said as I made my way to the home.
I must have missed a few because next thing I saw was a fist coming towards me, I dodged the fist but fell into the arms of one of my attackers.
"Now listen here you fucking bitch, no one and I me no tells me what the fuck to do!"
I smirked as he punched me in my gut.
'Jeez, what's with men calling me a bitch today?' I thought to myself.
Then out of the shadows I heard a noise, my attackers clearly didn't heard the sound.
Until a gruff voice spoke, "How about I tell you what to do?"
The boys dropped me and I nearly fell to the ground.
"SHIT IT'S BATMAN!" Some of the boys yelled and ran off, the leader clearly was an idiot because he looked like he wanted to go up against the Dark Knight.
'Who's the stupid fuck now bitch?' I giggled to myself, grimacing from the pain.
Batman didn't even have to move and the leader fainted, then I laughed out loud and said, "Pussy."
I turned towards Batman, "Thank you Bats." I smiled at him; it appeared that he was trying to make sure I was not in too much of a bad shape.
"I'm fine." I whispered trying not to sound weak.
"Clearly." Was the only answer I received and so I turned and began to go.
"How did you get hurt before those morons attacked you?" I stopped and turned my head towards him.
'Morons' I thought, 'Only teenagers and their parents use that word.'
I looked him in the eye and said, "I fell while playing with the foster family."
I could tell that he didn't believe me.
"What's your name?"
That I was not expecting, shock was written all over my face.
"Susannah Alexzandria." I said simply.
"Susannah Alexzandria what?"
I smiled once again and said, "No last name." I walked away not bothering to see if he was still there are not.
I finally made it back home and entered the house, it was quite so I walked to my room fell asleep after popping two Tylenol.
I watched the young woman leave. I deiced to follow her home to make sure everything was okay. The house was falling apart and dirty, I could hear a man and woman yelling at one another.
So the man was abusive, I'll tell Gordon and let him handle this.
But that girl could fight pity that she most likely learned to protect herself from people who wished to harm her.
I headed back to the Bat cave and informed Alfred of my discovery.
"Well Master Bruce, she seems like a strong young woman, pity that she will be shoved right back into the foster care once the police find out."
What is he getting at I wondered.
"Alfred, whatever do you mean?" I said with a smirk on my face.
"Well sir, she needs a guardian, one who can help her with her life, she seems to like other children…"Alfred left off picking up the batsuit and checking for rips.
"I suppose I can adopted her, the boys will like to have a girl around I'm sure. Isn't that right boys?"
A crash sounded thought out the cave and a loud "Yes!" was heard as feet ran up the stairs.
A Few Days Latter
She looked shell-shocked and panicky, like she couldn't believe that this was real.
I smirked and the boys laughed, Alfred brought her things into the house.
"Well Susannah, we hope you like it here." I said as I walked into the Manor.
Two Months
'I can't believe this is happening to me.' I thought as I stared at the adoption papers that Bruce laid in front of me.
"You want to adopt me?" I asked with a small voice trying not to cry.
"Yes, Susie we want you to be in our family." Bruce laughed lightly; I still found it hard to believe that this guy was even Batman.
Boy were they shocked when I found the bat cave.
I became Sparrow soon after, helping Robin a.k.a. Dick Grayson and Batman, and along with them Jason Todd and Tim Drake.
I picked up the pen and signed my name!
"Susannah Alexzandria Wayne." I jumped from my seat and hugged Bruce, my new Dad. 'So totally cool!' Then headed to hug my brothers and Alfred.
One Year Later
I was at the coffee shop that was located on Gotham Academy, trying to consecrate from my psychology class. But my brothers were making very hard to do so.
"Guys I need to study." I said noticing that the café's door opened but I didn't look to see who had entered. "Hey Jay give me back my book!" I cried trying to remove Jason's hand, the stupid klepto.
I finally had enough and slammed my hands on the table "Go the fuck away before I tell Dad."
I was the only who ever called Bruce dad on a regular basis; the boys did it when they were really happy or sad.
They left and as they left I saw Jason give a girl a nasty look and she gave just as good as she got. She headed towards me books in hand with her drink, whatever it was smelled amazing.
"Hey can I sit here?"
I looked at her and said, "Sure why not you are probably better company than my brothers any day."
I laughed and so did she.
"You have something in your hair." I said
She laughed and tugged at it while saying "It is my hair."
Wow way to go Suze! "Hehe, by the way I'm Susannah Alexzandria Wayne and you are?" I held my hand out to her.
"Hi, I'm Jessie Liz Napier."
The reason why it says 'the foster home' is because it's not home to her.
God, that was long.
