This story is about a girl named Rose and Batman. Rose did martial arts since she was 4 and since she lived on the bad side of Gotham not that there was a good side so she needed to know how to defend herself. She has aqua eyes,brunette hair and pale skin. Now lets start at where are story begins Rose age: 13, Batman/Bruce age: 30. Rose had a long day after school and having to learn karate while helping the karate teacher which earned her a few dollars. Then she had arrived at her family's run down apartment

"I wonder if anyone is home" she thought to herself while unlocking the door.

"no...No...NO!!" Rose screamed.

There were her parents laying facedown on the kitchen floor one on top of the other. Rose ran over to her parents turned one over.

"AHH!!" Rose screamed at the top of her lungs.

Her parents both had huge gruesome smiles on there faces and eyes bulging out of there skulls. She then sobbed for a few minutes then dialed 9-1-1 when she came to her senses.

An hour later she was in Gordon's office as he tried to comforted her to the best of his ability.

"If only I had come home earlier" Rose sobbed.

"Then you would have been killed too" Batman said while stepping out of the shadows.

"But at least I would of died with my parents" Rose sobbed.

"I will kill The Joker and I will get revenge!" Rose vowed as she slammed her fist down on the floor. Then Batman gazed into space because he was having a flashback of when he made that vow on his parents grave. He remembered clearly that night 8, coming home from the movie holding his parents hands smiling. Then walking down the cold cement allyway, a man coming around the corner and two flashes of light brightly flashing in front of him. then the red pools of blood surounding his parents bodies spiraled on the ground. The tears pouring non-stop down his small face, then pausing throwing his fists in the air and vowing that he shall always fight criminals.

"Batman, Batman are you okay?" Gordan asked as Batman blankly stared.

"What?Oh I'm fine as you were saying, Commissioner" Batman replied.

Gordon sighed as he said to Batman "I don't know who she will go, she has no god parents or living relatives that we can reach her parents were all she had at all".

"I might know someone who would be able to take her" Batman said in a reassuring tone.

"Really who?" Rose questioned wiping her eyes and sniffiling.

"Bruce Wayne, Gordon I want you to contact him" Batman said waiting for the perfect moment to go out the window.

"Maybe, I don't know if he is responsible enough to take care of a child" Gordon pondered as he looked at Rose holding tightly a little stuffed pink doll with the stuffing coming out that her mother gave her.

"Tell him I'll be watching him and I'm sure he will accept" Batman said.

"You're probably right" Then Gordon looked up watching the blinds bash into the wall from the wind "He does that a lot and I absolutely hate it".

Gordon got on the phone and called Wayne Manor "Hello, is Bruce there this is Commissioner Gordon"

"Oh dear he's in trouble again isn't he" Alfred said sarcastically then pausing as he could hear the roar of the batmobile " yes he's here let me get him".

Gordon held the phone waiting for the voice of Bruce Wayne "Hello" Bruce said.

"Hello I had to ask you a question there is a young girl here whose parents were killed I wanted to know if you could take her in as your own" Gordon said.

There was a short pause "I think I could do that" Bruce said "is that all you wanted commissioner?" Bruce asked.

"Yes Bruce thank you" Gordon said as he hung up the phone.

He turned on a light as he entered the dark hideout he took off his purple trench coat and fixed his white gloves. "I bet that girl thinks I would stop with her parents, well looks like she has another thing coming" The Joker said as he burst into laughter.
