hey, I hope you guys are having an awesome day! BYE!

I don't own batman or any DC charters.

Chapter 7

They hear sirens

Lets go. He runs up and grabs her arm roughly

Wait! Barbara chases after them

They run around back to a black suv without a licenses plate.

Get in the van. NOW! The hooded girl does as she is told.

Oh one more thing . . . you can't see where we are going to take you. He pulls out a elecuting stick

Shoot

He turns it all the way up and zaps her. She stays up for about 5 seconds before passing out.

He chuckles

What did you do to her! Barbara asks

I did what need to be done. And he draws a gun and aims at her, as the shot goes off batman drops in front of barbara and protects her from the shot with his bullet resistant cape. And the black suv drives off.

You ok?

Yeah.

Why did you chase after him?

Because he kidnapped a girl.

(break)

BARBARA! Jim gordon runs up to her and hug her. Are you ok?

I'm fine dad. But you have to help her

Who?

The person who did the hold up, he kidnapped a girl.

The commissioner sighs.

What's wrong dad

I asked someone to join the tour with you to protect you and the group,

oh

Do we know who he kidnapped?

She introduced herself to me before the tour. Umm i believe she said her her name was meg whitney

Batman, robin says running up to them. There was a camera right there that filmed the hold up.

Good get the footage from it.

Already did, he pulls is up on his wrist computer, they all started to watch the video.

Barbara sees something

Wait stop the video, can you rewind it 3 seconds and pause.

He does, she sees the girl grab her phone from her pocket.

I am going to see what the other witnesses say. And with that the commissioner leaves.

She reaches into her pocket to feel that her phone is gone

You guys saw that too right?

Batman turns to her,

Did you call me?

No and my phone is gone.

I still have the trace going.

When the van stops. Tell me where she is at.

Did the footage help with anything? Gordon asks

That the person you sent to stop this was kidnapped.

It's the girl in a purple hood.

Girl in a purple hood?

A girl that popped up and is helping people. We don't know who she is.

I have a feeling that her name isn't meg whitney.

( break)

He's late! All he had to do was grab the girl. All well can't get good help those days.

Ah mr joker sir? Why do we want the girl?

She is the commissioner's daughter. We can have GCPD on their knees to get her back safely.

Hey boss. He's back.

He gets out of the van.

Did you grab the girl?

Ya boss but she seems a little young to me boss.

Oh nawsence she's 22

No way

Why do you say that

Cause she ain't no older the 11

What do you mean? They walk around to the back of the van and they hear some rustling.

You knocked her out didn't you?!

I did i promise i did. She must have a high pain tolerance

( switch to Lydia's point of view )

I did i promise i did. She must have a high pain tolerance.

Shoot, she reties her bindings.

The doors open

(Normal pov)

Why hello miss- wait you're not barbara gordon. You're the girl from the alleyway

Shoot shoot shoot shoot.

No duh captain obvious she pulls her arms out of her bindings and takes a swing at joker and hits him in the nose, jumps over him.

Don't just stand there get her! Joker yells

They charge at her.

Well… let's has have some fun.

One guy comes at her from her right, she does a left hook and then kicks his feet out from under him. Another guy tries to grab her from her back, she stomps on his foot and swings her head back and knocks him down. A guy has charges at her, she runs at him jumps over his head and kicks him in the back. And out of nowhere the joker grabs her and sticks a needle in her neck.

How did i not see that coming?

( break )

Did you find her yet? Barbara asked while walking up to the bat-computer

Still working on it.

Master bruce, i believe we have a problem.

Yes alfred.

It's miss Lydia, she's gone.

Bruce swears under his breath.

Whos Lydia? Barbara ask dick

Bruce's new ward

So she is your new sister-

Foster, foster sister. Not even adoptive.

Do you have a picture her?

Yeah. he pulls out his phone. Here.

She looks at it and hides a gasp.

Um how old is she?

7 same age as me. Dick walks over to bruce leaving barbara alone.

It looks like i'm the first one to know who is under that hood. She whispers.

( break )

Ouch, what truck hit me? Oh yeah ok so use your senses but don't open your eyes. Ok let's do this. She listens

Drip drop drip drop.

Ok it's raining lightly, my best guess is that i'm on the edge of gotham. Next she feels

I am sitting in a chair with my arms behind my back, tied with rope by the coarseness of the rope tells me it's a older rope. And i don't have to worry about opening my eyes because i have a blindfold on. Ok last one. She smells

Blood. That's all she can smell is blood.

Shoot this isn't going to end well

A door opens. She drops her head down to look like she wasn't awake.

Hello, little girl do you honestly think i don't know the possum trick? Huh? She stays quiet. Ok that's your decision. He punches her in the gut. Huh. she doesn't react. he punches her again. Not talkative ay? Ok punches her two more times. Ok then we will talk later. Hahaha! And he leaves. Silens.

There is no way out of here by myself. I guess i will have to wait for bruce. Who are you kidding he isn't going to find you.

( break )

Bruce stands up and heads for his bat-suit.

You found her? Dick asks

Yes, suit up. He replies, dick leaves

I'm coming too. Barbara says.

No, your out of practice

Bruce i can handle this, it's my fault she is in the position.

Barbara you haven't been batgirl since you were still patrolling gotham five years ago. You aren't ready.

Bruce do you trust me?

Yes

Then i'm going

Barbara-

I'm. going.

Ok but be careful.

Barbara looks in the direction that dick left in.

Oh one question

He looks at her.

Have you found Lydia yet?

He swears again

Bruce please don't tell me you forgot about her.

The hooded girl is more important.

I'm going to pretend i didn't hear that and get ready to go.

( break )

He has come in three times since the first one, so that's four times, three punches each so that's 12 really hard punches, estimation two broken ribs and 3 bruised and several cuts. Ive had worst. I can't just keep faking it he is going to know soon. I still can't see, and i have already rub my wrist raw testing the ropes. Bruce, please remember me.

* Bang bang bang RETREAT! *

What on earth?

*she is in there, please don't hurt me*

*click click click*

someone is coming. She drops her head

Hey hoodie, you're ok. Someone takes off the blindfold.

your batgirl.

And your the hooded girl. She walks around to untie her

As soon as she is untied she jumps up from her chair, grabs 2 knifes from batgirl's belt, and throws them over batgirl's shoulders and they pins jokers wrist to the wall before he can shoot them. Batgirl's jumps around.

You little b****! He swears

I hate to break it to you but that's not the first time someone has called me that. The hood girl replies.

Nice throw. Batgirl says.

Thanks, is the gordon girl alright?

Yeah she is, come on with me, batman will want to talk to you.

Really? And i know you're behind me batman.

Yes really. He replies.

Fine, can we atleast do it on a roof.

Fine

(break)

So mr. batman what do you want to talk about?

What happened while you were with the joker?

Besides being punched a lot, nothing happened, i acted like i was knocked out.

Smart.

To a extent, yes.

Why did you do it?

What?

Pretended to be someone else.

I wasn't going to let someone else get hurt if i could prevent it.

And if you died in the process

I don't know. "Yippy" maybe

Tell me who you are.

You still haven't figured it out.

…

I have. Batgirl intrups. And you know who i am.

Even deal than.

Yes, yes it is.

The hooded girl smerks. How long do you think it will take for him to figure it out?

At Least another day or two.

huh , for the world's greatest detective he can't see whats right in front of him. Well this was a nice chit chat but i'm going to go, see you around batman, batgirl, robin. And then she ran off the edge of the roof swung on the firescape and jumps to a dumpster and runs down the alley.

Does she always do that?

Yes, batgirl tell me who she is.

No.

No?

Yes no, she is right you don't always see whats right in front of you. And with that batgirl turns to leave.

Then tell, tell me what's right in front of me?!

She turns,

Family.

She leaves batman to his thoughts.

(break)

Lydia's point of view.

I am climbing back into my room, yes MY room. After these past few days i am really tired. *sigh* i am ready to go to sleep and sleep the day away.

The light to my room turned on.

Shoot.

(normal pov)

Hey alfred. She says while holding her left ribs and wheezing.

Oh my! Miss Lydia! He walks up to her and guide her to her bed and sits her down.

Stay here i'm going to call a doctor.

Wait! Please don't! They will tell bruce.

He pulls out his phone.

I'm sorry miss Lydia but your health is more important.

Hello leslie, it's alfred, indrys appear to be bruises and broken ribs- he looks at her, he sees the defeated look in her eyes- i will meet you at the front door . . . and master bruce isn't to know of this.

She looks at him

No no it isn't master dick or myself,. . . have you ever heard of the hooded girl?

( break )

Alfred opens the door.

Why are you helping the hooded girl? Dr leslie asks.

Shhh. please not to loud you will activate the voice recognizer. Please follow me, and thank you

Anytime alfred.

(break)

In a guest room somewhere in the manner.

Miss hooded girl, this is dr leslie.

Alfred can you give us the room?

Yes dr leslie

He leaves

She chuckles. Hooded is fine and you don't have to do miss part.

Joker

She rapped her ribs. And checked her bruises

Ok there. All done sweety

No you don't understand i can't give you anything.

She climbs through the window before dr leslie can stop her
