Do every feel like your parents force you to do activities they use to do when they were young. No, then count you self lucky, if yes then you know how I feel. My mom forces me to go to dance class every Saturday.

I wake up to a bright and sunny Saturday. I get up and rub my eyes andI push my red-brown hair out of my face. I get up to go to my window and stare at Gotham below. Oh how beautiful Gotham looks in morning, so peaceful and innocence. Now back to Saturday dance classes. My mother thinks I go every Saturday but really I go and hang out with my parkour friends.

I move away from the window to my closet. I pick out a three quarter red jacket, roomy grey jogging pants, a black tank top, and grey high tops. I peer out my door and yell at my mom. "I'm going to dance class mom, bye"

"Have fun sweetie don't forget your phone" she says from the kitchen I guess. Before I leave I put my phone in my back pocket. I go out my window on to my fire escape. I climb until I reach my roof. My mother doesn't worry when I leave out the fire escape. She always thinks I climb down not up.

When on my roof I jump from my roof to the neighboring roof to the left. I jump the next four roofs to the left until I reach the roof of my friend Piper. Piper is my Japanese-American parkour friend with purple dyed hair. She's the one who got me into parkouring, she also my best friend at school. When I reach her roof I see her stretching. "Hey Piper" I say to her.

"Hey Alexandra" she says standing up. She wears a white tank top, over it is a purple loose tank top, black jogging pants, and black high tops.

"I told you to call me Alex" I say hugging her.

" I know I just want to annoy you" she sticks out her tongue. "Mom still thinks you go to dance class" she ask

"Dad still thinks you go to piano" I say in return. We both laugh at the same time. We both lie to our parents because they will never approve of this.

"Hey ladies" says our best guy friend Blake. Piper and I both hug him. Blake has dark brown hair and is wearing a black t-shirt with grey writing on it, dark grey jogging pants and black high tops. "Ready to go" he says We both nod, then were off.

We all go jumping and climbing all the buildings of Gotham not saying a word. Doing this relives all the stress of being a senior in highschool and the stress of our home life. We do this until late afternoon then we retire at Piper house playing Xbox until eight. My mom texts me to come home through the front door and not the fire escape so she doesn't think I'm a murderer. I say good bye to my friends and leave.

I walk out of Piper's house looking around, Gotham at night isn't the nicest. When walking home I see drug deals going down, hookers getting pick up and a mugging. I try to keep my head up and walk a little bit faster. Just four blocks away.

I start to get cat calls from men twice my age. "Hey why don't take a ride with me sweetie" or "I can make your night darling". Just three blocks away. I decide keep my head down and keep walk until a hand comes over my mouth and pulls me into a dark alley. I try to scream and move but I'm paralyzed from fear. "Hey honey how's it hanging" says a raspy voice who smells like cigarettes. I hear him bring out a pocket knife and aim it at my throat. "What should I do to you." he ask I start to move a little but the knife comes closer to my throat. "Kill you ,or feel you up until you beg me to stop" I cry a little when he says a this.

"How about you get your ass kick" says a younger male voice. The creepy man holding turns around shaking. In front of me stands Red Hood sitting on a fire escape. He hops off and walks towards us with a certain swagger ( yes I said swagger)."I'm s-sorry man here take her." The creepy guy push me to Red Hood.

"You think I'll forgive you for almost killing a innocent girl?" Red Hood says. I go to stand behind him, I'm no coward but I'm not denying his services , He save me. Red Hood punches him in the face breaking creepy guy's nose.

"Leave now and be happy I didn't do worse" Creepy Guy runs like a mad man.

"Thank you" I say once Red Hood turns around.

"No problem sweet cheeks" I feel him smirking even though his face is covered by a red helmet. I give him a look and turn around to go back home when his hand catches my wrist. He pulls me back to him and I'm close to his chest. His other hand goes to the small of my back. "Let me take back home swe-"

"Alex" I say cutting him off. I move away from him. "I'm capable of going home by myself" I say.

"Really?" he grabs my waist and shoots a grappling hook (I guess) to the roof. I put my arms around his neck as he pulls us up. "I wasn't really asking" he says once were on the roof.

I put my hands on m hips. "Do you always kidnap girls like me?" I ask

"Only pretty ones. Where do you lived sweet cheeks?" he ask

"First don't call me sweet cheeks, and second four roofs down" I say pointing that direction.

"Than lets go"

Five minutes and four roofs down later

Me and Red Hood reach my roof five later not saying a whole word to each other. "Bye sweet cheeks, hope to run into soon"

I nod to him and he turns away.

He might be a jerk and flirts (badly) with me, but he saved my life. "Hey" I say. He turns around. "Thank You" I climb down from the roof onto the fire escape. On the way down way down I hear him laugh a little.

I jump onto my bed face first and groan into my pillow loudly.

"Alexandra is that you, I told you come through the front door." my mom says from the living room next to my room.

"Sorry Mom!" I say back.

This was such an interesting day .
