1. Luna Ornelas first chapter

Don't you love those early mornings, lying in bed listening to the rain? Snug warm into your toasty cocoon? A lot of things happened the past few months. Loïc and Annie finally decided to admit their feelings for one and another. Bruce found new proof about his company being corrupt and ruled by a shadow company, and even Jim went to find Lee. Sadly for him she had moved on during his absence.

Alfred still did nothing else than grumble at us, Rikki was happily single and focused on…and this might sound crazy…her studies. Bullock did nothing but moping because Jim decided to quit his job as a detective and start a bounty hunter career.

And me and Sean? We have our lovely little baby girl Luna. We are so excited to have her in our lives, and most of us are perfectly content.

Selina smiles to herself then turning her head aside to look at her still sleeping boyfriend, Sean. She sighs of happiness then slowly reaching for his shoulder. Then suddenly…Luna decides it's morning and turns into alarm clock as she starts crying and wakes up every Wayne Manor resident.

Hold that thought…Selina thinks to herself as she pulls her covers off and dashes to the little girl's crib taking Luna out before she sits down into a rocking chair and starts breast feeding her.

"I'm telling you, she's going to break the 'baby-who-wakes-everyone-extremely-early' record," Sean said pushing himself upwards into a sitting position resting his head against the headboard as he yawns then looking at Selina. "So, how early is it?"

Selina smiles; " ."

"What the F- Sean is about to say but Alfred strolled past by and said through the closed door; "Language, Master Sean," before heading downstairs. Sean shrugs and grins at Selina then pointing at Luna; "Well, it's not like she can understand the words."

Selina throws a stink-eye to her boyfriend then smirking; "Alfred's right, babies can pick up and understand more than you think. Also, since when does he call you, Master Sean?"

"Since I'm paying his allowance," Sean replied then snuggling back underneath the covers. "Also, since when are you agreeing with what Alfred says?"

Selina tilts her head to one side; "I'm a mommy now, Sean. I'm suddenly more responsible."

"You, responsible?" Sean guffawed pulling is arms up then resting the back of his head into his hands. "I bet you looked that word up in a dictionary."

Selina throws a very murderous look at her boyfriend then covering her upper part with the pyjama before she takes the sleeping Luna against her shoulder softly tapping her butt; "Show daddy what we do when he's mean to mommy."

It takes a few seconds, but then a burpee sound escapes Luna's throat and Selina sticks her tongue out to Sean before grinning; "That's my girl." Then Selina rises back to her feet and lies Luna back into her crib, softly whispering; "You're going to sleep, and mommy will find herself a dictionary so she can pummel your daddy's butt with it."

"I heard that!" Sean's said his voice sounding muffled due to the blankets he had pulled over his head.

Selina simply smirks then walking on her tippy-toes to the bed and dropping herself onto the lump called Sean Ornelas before moving all over him to his other side then curling up next to him.

"Sean?"

"What?" Sean asked from underneath the blankets.

Selina packs her lips; "Can I have a kiss?"

"No!"

"Why not?"

"Because you're telling our little baby daughter to be mean to me."

"So, now you're sulking like a big baby and refuse to kiss me?"

"Yes," Sean said, not noticing the big smirk on Selina's face, but still realizing his mistake, "No, and yes!"

Selina shrugs; "Oh well... I can always hug myself. I don't need you to do it."

And with that said, the young mother turns her back toward her boyfriend ten cuddling underneath the warm blankets and wrapping her own arms around herself, still having a big smirk around her lips. It even grows bigger when she feels Sean shift toward her then wrapping his arm around her and pulling her against his stomach.

"I said I wouldn't kiss you, but I never said anything about hugging," Sean's muffled voice said then nuzzling his face against her upper back. A deep happy sigh escapes his lips when he smells Selina's aroma then feeling himself drift back to sleep. But then…

Luna start to cry again, and Selina grins wickedly; "It's your turn, Sean!"

Sean grunts tiredly then rolling his eyes after hearing the 'grin' in Selina's voice before tossing the blankets off and taking them with him as he walks to Luna's crib. Then he wraps the blanket around himself and takes the girl in his arms then strolling over to the dressing table noticing the big scowl on his girlfriend's face.

"Why did you take all the blankets with you?"

Sean lies Luna down and replies; "Because I'm cold, dah."

Selina rolls her eyes; "I remember you once said; 'I can endure extreme colds,' so give me back my blankets! I'm freezing!"

"Yeah well… didn't you just said a few minutes ago (Sean mimics Selina's voice); 'I can always hug myself, I don't need you to do it?' (then his own voice again) So, hug yourself until your warm."

Sean has to duck for that one, because his pillow made a short trip through the air toward him after Selina threw it.

Sean grins then whispering to Luna; "Ha, and that is why daddy is smarter than mommy, because daddy would have used the pillow as a blanket instead of throwing it!"

"Yeah, and now mommy has to pee, thanks to the cold daddy left me in," Selina said ten sticking her tongue out to Sean on her way to the bathroom. Sean however, is too busy with taking Luna's diaper down.

"AAGH," Sean said in disgust once he opened the little blubbery surprise then tossing it into the diaper bin. Luna gurgled while the sides of her mouth curled upwards and Sean then said with his nose pinched; "Why do you always have to give daddy the most stinky ones? I'm telling you, it's your mommy's fault!"

Sean tickles Luna's face with his hair who did her best to tangle her little fingers into it as she gurgles and coos and kicks her feet outwards in excitement. Then Sean feels a slap on his butt.

"Where did you blame me for this time?" Selina asked folding her arms as she stares at her boyfriend who tries to tilt his head slightly, but fails because Luna's fingers are tangled in his hair.

Sean untangles Luna's fingers then grinning at Selina; "Well, I read somewhere that the food a mommy decides to eat can have effects on the baby. Like for example; if you eat union, it can give Luna stomach cramps. So, if you eat a little more food that smells nice, maybe her poo will smell nice too."

"You know what Luna? You have my permission to yank your daddy's hair as hard as you can." And with that said, Selina strolls to the door then saying over her shoulder as she walks out; "And keep in mind, sweetie, daddy can endure lots of pain, so make sure you yank hard enough to hurt daddy's scalp."

Luna simply gurgles then darting her little eyes back to Sean who decided it was time to wrap a new diaper around her bum and following his girlfriend out with Luna in his arms.

"Alright, where is that little poo, eat and cry machine?!" Bullock storms inside the kitchen then scoping his eyes around and spotting the ninja butler assassin making breakfast.

Alfred looks up from the sizzling bacon; "Richard is with Jim in the study."

"I'm not talking about that poo machine, but the other one. We have some serious talking to do, because uncle gets home late every night ten heading straight to bed for his well-earned sleep, and barely four hours later she wakes me up with her crying's."

Alfred rolls his eyes and slides the bacon from the frying pan onto a plate before saying; "That's what babies do, Mr. Bullock."

"Hey, we talked about this before, it's Master Bullock now I live here, remember?"

Alfred throws a smirk; "Are you paying my allowance?"

"Nope!"

"In that case, could you tell the others breakfast is ready, Mr. Bullock? They are in the study as well."

Bullock grins; "Are you going to pay me for being your messenger boy?"

"Mr. Bullock, let me answer the question with another question; do you want to sleep on the streets and eat food from the bins?"

Bullock opens his mouth to say something witty, but changes his mind when he sees Alfred's look ten answering instead; "Fine, you win, but only this time!" And with that the lackadaisical stomps outside the kitchen then scowling over his shoulder; "Also, that was two questions, not one!"

The lackadaisical cop strolls into the study and finds Bruce Wayne playing with Richard, Sean tickling Luna while she sits on Selina's lap, and Jim reading the newspaper. The other kids (Loïc, Rikki, Annie and Hien) seem still in their bedrooms.

"Come to your favorite uncle," Bullock said brandishing his arms at the cooing Luna then taking her from Selina's lap. "You woke me up, way to early kitten-baby. You promised me to not cry until it's ."

Bullock tickles the baby's chin then facing the others; "Oh yeah, butler-chief said breakfast is ready." Then the cop proceeds cooing at Luna who coos back in reply.

"You know, it's surprising to hear you speak 'baby' language," Sean grinned then heading for the door and saying before he heads out; "I'm going to grab some breakfast, because I'm hungry."

Jim folds the newspaper and replies; "Make it to go, Sean. We have to some serious monster catching to do."

Bullock sits down where Sean sat earlier and says to his ex-partner; "I still don't get why you decided to become a bounty hunter? I mean, Barnes returned and took his position as captain again, and also took the liberty to decide I need a partner. I rather have you back on my team, Jim. I mean, who is going to be my new partner? It better not be Alvarez."

"Ah, don't worry Bullock," Jim said rising onto his feet and heading for the door. "I bet you're going to like you're new partner instantly, and you won't even miss me. Besides, you still see me when Sean and me drop off monsters."

"And that's one other thing I don't get," Bullock said facing Selina who tickled her little daughter's nose. "I mean, don't get me wrong, but Ornelas is filthy rich. Why does he need a job?"

Selina smiles taking her daughter back then replying; "If every rich person would think like that, they won't stay rich for long, would they? Besides, Sean likes to make the city safe, and because Barnes still thinks he's too young to become a cop, he helps Jim out?"

"Yeah, but still… I get probably some rookie idiot as partner or Alvarez."

Selina grins; "Doesn't Alvarez fit the rookie idiot category?"

Bullock cracks a smile; "Oh well… I better get my butt to the precinct before Barnes will get another fit. I wish I could take this little kitten-baby to be my new partner. I mean, she will make every criminal turn into jelly with her gorgeous face, and that makes it easier for me to arrest them."

An hour later the lackadaisical cop finds himself lonely behind the desk he once shared with Jim. He sighs sadly as he glances to the few items that once belonged to Jim. The stapler, the pens, the files, they all are nothing but a memory of the man who once owned them.

Another deep, sadly sigh echoes through the precinct then Alvarez walks up to him and says gloomily; "It turns out you have a case, and with that case also comes a temporarily partner. Barnes wants to see you in his office."

"So wait, you are not going to be my partner," Bullock asked and can't help but sigh happily.

Alvarez throws a dirty eye; "Why did you think I sound so gloomily? Also, don't contain your excitement too much!"

"Oh, don't worry, I won't," Bullock grinned then adding; "I'm going to throw a wild party to celebrate you're not going to be my partner."

"You do realize you have another partner, right? Also, warning; he looks funny. It's like he's coming from a circus or something."

Bullock snorts; "Yeah, but didn't you say temporarily? I can hang out with him for a while, make sure it won't be too much unbearable for me, and in the meantime I persuade my buddy Jim to join back to force. I have some ideas and offers he can't say no to. Trust me, Jim will be my partner before you know it."

Alvarez rolls his eyes mockingly; "Sure Bullock, whatever you say." And with that the rookie detective strolls off.

Bullock strolls up the stairs to Barnes's office then knocking and entering finding his captain behind his desk and another man wearing a red uniform and a Stetson hat sitting parallel of him who rises to his feet to introduce himself to the lackadaisical cop.

"Hi, my name is Will Fraser from the Royal Canadian Mounted police. I came to Gotham on the trail of the kidnappers of my sister."

Bullock shakes Mr. Fraser's hand politely then looking at his captain; "And why exactly did you call for me?"

"You're going to help him find the kidnappers and rescue his sister. She's a very dear friend of mine, and I put my unwavering trust in you to act as his guide and solve this case at the same time."

Bullock snorts; "Unwavering trust? Since when do you-

"Since Jim decided to drop his responsibilities as a cop and you are basically the only not corrupt cop in this place left, that's why!" Barnes yelled then breathing in and out, in and out, just like his anger management coach told him to do. "Now, grab your stuff and find those bastards."

Bullock rolls his eyes then turning on his heels while beckoning Mr. Fraser to come with him and once they are out the room; "Look, Mr. Fraser…

"You can call me either Will or simply Fraser. No need to be so formal," the Mountie said, smiling politely and cuffing his hands behind his back regally.

Bullock drops his mouth agape pondering why the man makes him remind of a certain British butler then quickly shaking the thoughts off and continues; "This is Gotham, okay. This is the most dangerous city you can ever imagine, so the best thing for you is to stay close and keep your tramp shut while I'll do the talking, alright?"

Mr. Fraser nods then answering with straight, serious face; "Understood."

Bullock turns on his heels and grabs his jacket on his way to the front door with Mr. Fraser in tow. Once outside the lackadaisical cop spots the beige white dog trailing behind Mr. Fraser and grumbles while pointing at the animal; "That dog is yours?"

"That's Diefenbaker, and he's a wolf," Mr. Fraser replied opening the passenger seat door of Bullock's car then allowing the wolf to step in and taking a spot onto the backseat before he takes his spot in the passenger seat.

Bullock opens the driver's seat door then grumbling between clenched teeth; "Great, I have to work with the loony-bird from Canada who has a pet that is wolf."

"Oh, actually he's half-wolf," Mr. Fraser said once Bullock sat beside him starting the car. "Though, I have no idea what kind of animal his other half is."

Bullock looks at the man bemused then glancing into the rear-view mirror at the wolf in the backseat, slightly scared; "How on Earth did you manage to train a wolf? I mean, does he even listen to your orders?"

"No, he's deaf."

Bullock looks baffled; "Why would someone like to have a deaf wolf as pet?" Bullock asked steering the car down the road.

"Well, actually Dief decided to stay with me after he saved me from the icy cold waters which is why he's deaf. His eardrums burst due to cold water."

Bullock sighs tiredly not sure if he has to believe the story then saying; "Well, keep him out of my hair, okay?"

"Well, he's deaf, so it's whether up to him if he leaves you alone or not."

Bullock clenches the steering wheel to contain himself to not swing one arm to his temporarily partner then scowling firmly; "You know what, maybe you should keep your tramp shut right now, okay?"

Fraser nods; "Understood."

Selina and Annie sit with Luna on the couch then the street girl breaks the silence by reading out loud from a parental book; "Your baby will "talk" to you with a variety of sounds, and also will smile at you and wait for your response, and respond to your smiles with her own. Your baby may even mimic your facial expressions."

"That's so cute," Annie cried ecstatic as she held Luna in her arms.

Selina suddenly grins; "So, if she smiles and I look back angrily, like Alfred always does when we smile or have fun, how will Luna react?" Annie shrugs to that and Selina adds; "Let's put it to the test."

"No, that is awful," Annie said, but Selina ignored her.

"Luna, look at me my little kitten," Selina cried with glee, and once Luna has her eyes set on her mommy and sends a tiny smile, Selina pierces her eyes angrily into her daughter's. It takes a few seconds, then Luna's smile melts into a trembling under lip. "No, no, don't cry," Selina said already regretting her crazy idea.

Annie quickly gave Luna back to Selina who smiles and tickles the girl's chin. It takes a few seconds, but then the pouty face turns back into a tiny smile.

"Yeah, mommy will not trick you again, because that was really mean of me, wasn't it?" Luna gurgles back then Alfred enters the study and Selina says to the butler; "Well…according to this book and the test we did, you have to stop looking so grumpy, because it has effects on Luna's mood. I don't want her to turn into a grumpy human."

Alfred smirks back; "Well, Miss Kyle, if you set your antics aside, I won't have reasons to look grumpy, will I?"

"Yeah, nice try old man," Selina said with a cheeky grin. "You just have to smile and make a little more fun, or do they give you an exam on being grumpy on those butler-schools?"

Alfred rolls his eyes; "There is no such thing as a butler-school, Miss Kyle." Then adding regally; "Is there anything I can do for you two before I head to the supermarket?"

"No, we are fine. Yes, we are fine, aren't we Luna," Selina said zooming her face close to the little baby.

Annie grins; "Not right now, but you can get me some chocolate while you're at the super market."

"Oh yes, for me too," Selina said excitedly. "Yes, mommy want's chocolate."

Alfred gloats then saying slightly taunted; "Miss Kyle, maybe you should read the section of 'thing's I better should avoid eating when I breast feed my baby' in that parental book of yours."

Then the butler strolls off and Selina reads the section Alfred recommended then muttering; "Crap!"

"Language, Miss Kyle," Alfred said before closing the front door when he left.

Selina sighs sadly; "No chocolate for mommy means no stomach cramps for Luna."

Luna sends a tiny smile to make her mommy happy again.
