A/N In this DC verse this takes place sometime after Jason Todd's death. It will not follow any storyline from the Batman comic however. It also takes place a second after Kendra dissappeared in Xander Begins.

Chapter 1

Welcome to the Wishverse

"Ow me head." Kendra said to herself as she wobbled unsteadily on her feet. Putting her hand to her temple to ease the throbbing pain, she looked up and saw a giant clay like fist, heading for her face.

Before she could move a black blur swept her off of her feet and got her out of harms way.

"Miss are you alright?" a familiar voice asked her. Opening her eyes back up, she saw that it was Batman who had rescued her.

"Bruce?" she asked, before passing out. With a frown, Batman gave the girl a look, before he layed her down on the floor.

Alerted by a noise, he turned only to see that the large clayed creature had broken through a wall and ran off into the night. With a growl, he was about to take off in pursuit of him until he suddenly remembered the girl.

Even though he had spent all night, tracking down Clay face the girl knowing his secret identity seemed a little more important at the moment. Hearing police sirens in the distance, he picked the girl up and took off towards the batmobile.

Head pounding, Kendra sat up with a wince as she heard a horrible screeching sound. Opening her eyes, she saw bats fluttering around in a dark and almost endless void. As her eyes adjusted a little better to the darkness she saw that she was in the batcave.

'What happened to me?' she thought to herself, as the haze started to clear from her mind. Looking down she saw that she was laying in a cot and that the weapons she had were gone. As her memories started to come back to her, she then thought of a voice she heard before passing out.

"Bruce?"

"Who are you?" a voice asked out of the darkness.

"Bruce?" Kendra called again. 'Why is he acting like he doesn't know me?'

"I asked, who are you?" the voice asked again. And that's when Kendra knew something was wrong. Bruce's voice sounded more harsh, more rougher then she remembered. Even when he was dressed as Batman he didn't sound so terrifying.

"Me name is Kendra, sir." she said playing along.

"Kendra, I want you to explain what this is then." Batman said as his gloved hand appeared out of the darkness and threw three things on the floor. Curious to what they were, she leaned down, picked them up, and found that they were her half of a heart necklace, a necklace Bruce himself had given her before he left for Gotham, and her bill folder.

"I want you too explain a few things. Why is there a picture of you and me in that wallet and in that necklace?" he asked as Kendra hurriedly put her necklaces on.

"Because you're me fodder." she informed him as he stepped out of the shadows and stared at her hard.

Bruce sat at the batcomputer, still in his costume but without the cowl, quickly typing away for some new information.

"Am I too assume that you didn't believe her story, master Bruce?" Alfred asked as he walked up behind him.

"Actually, I believed every word she said." he replied, never taking his eyes off of the computer. "I just contacted the watch tower to see if any paranormal activity took place in Gotham."

"And?"

"And they picked up some kind of spacial anomaly around the same time she appeared."

"So if her story checked out then might I ask why you drugged her, sir?" Alfred asked as he pointed back at Kendra who was lightly snoring on her cot.

"Because, I needed time to take in all of what she told me." Bruce informed him. "I've never heard of a Slayer or this Watcher's Council before and I'm trying to pull up some information about this place called Sunnydale." And the information he recieved about Sunnydale surprised him. Not only because of the high death rate, but because he had never heard of it because of said death rate.

"And her being your daughter?" Alfred asked happily.

"She's not my anything." Bruce said as he stopped typing all together and stood to his feet. "She's my doubles daughter."

"Still sir, she must be very special to you...your double enough to take her in and give her a ten million dollar bank draft." Alfred pointed out as he held up a picture of him and her together along with said bank draft.

Bruce stared hard at both the draft and then the picture. His gaze then finally settled on the picture of his...his doubles daughter and him smiling. He couldn't remember a time in his life where he truly smiled like that. And both of them seemed so comfortable together, as a family should.

"I'm going to call Jason Blood in the morning and see if he can find out a way to get her home." Bruce said as he walked past Alfred and looked down at Kendra. Wiping a tiny bead of sweat off of her forehead, he picked her up and cradled her in his arms.

"Sir, don't you atleast want to get to know her?" Alfred asked. "Or at the very least try to find out why she's here?"

"I already know why she's here, Alfred." Bruce informed him as he walked up the stairs of the batcave with Kendra. "It was a random anamoly that..."

"Sir think a little more rationally. Isn't it strange that miss Kendra appeared so suddenly after young master Todd's dea..."

"I don't want to talk about that!" Bruce yelled in frustration as he stopped walking up the stairs. Visibly shaking, he calmed down a bit before walking again. "Goodnight Alfred."

"What are we going to do about him?" Alfred asked with a sigh, as he looked over at Jason Todd's Robin suit that was encased behind a glass case.

"Rise and shine, Miss Wayne." Kendra heard a voice say as a beam of warm light shone on her face. Cracking her eyes open, she saw that she was in a queen sized bed, in a large room, and that Alfred was opening the blinds to the large window in her room.

"Alfred?" she asked groggily as she sat up. Finally her headache seemed to have subsided and last night's events flooded back to her mind. 'I'm in an alternate universe.'

"I'm sure that you're famished." Alfred stated as he presented her with a silver platter that had bacon, eggs, toast, and a grapefruit on it.

"Yes, tank you." she replied as she accepted it from him. Alfred looked at her thoughtfully for a moment, as she ate her food, before he looked at her sadly.

"I'm afraid that I also have a bit of bad news for you." he said after a moment of looking at her. "I've called Sunnydale as you requested and..."

"Did you find dem?" she interrupted. "Did you find me friends?" even though she was in a different dimension, she thought that if she could somehow find her friends that everything would be okay.

"I'm sorry, but the Alexander Harris in Sunnydale is, is dead. So is young Miss Rosenburg." Alfred stopped talking then as he saw her head drop. He had to surpress doing the same, because when he called Willow's parents home they were so hurt and they thought that he was playing a creul joke on them. "And there isn't a listing for a Miss Faith Lehane, Buffy Summers, or a Mr. Wesley Wyndam-Pryce."

"And de Council?" Kendra asked as she layed her plate down and met his gaze.

"Me and Master Bruce have never heard of any Council before." Alfred admitted. "And since you don't have any contact numbers for them..."

"Where is Bruce now?" Kendra cut him off again.

"He is off handling some business at Wayne Enterprises, but he should be back later on tonight with an associate of his that might be able to get you home."

"Alfred may I ask you someting?" Kendra asked as she tucked her knees under her chin and looked at him.

"Of course my dear. You can ask me anything."

"Why does Bruce seem so angry?" she asked. In her universe Bruce was always so gentle with her and he would always look at her with his gentle eyes. But here he was... different almost as he looked at her as if she were an enemy.

Seeing that she wasn't going to eat anymore of her food, Alfred took the platter back from her. "Come with me."

Batcave

Minutes Later

Kendra traced her hand down the lighted glass display case that carried Jason Todd's Robin costume. Alfred had given her some new clothes to wear, from what a girl named Barbara Gordon left behind. Even though she didn't know Jason, she still felt bad about his death. He wasn't even that much older than her.

"He was impulsive, reckless, and full of rage." Alfred voiced from behind her. "But he was also Master Bruce's adopted son and his protege."

"What happened to him?"

"That my dear is another story all together." Alfred said tiredly. He really didn't want to relive what the Joker did to the boy. "Just know that Master Bruce took his death hard and it did something to him inside. Something that made him colder and a bit reckless himself. I've tried to talk to him about it, but to no avail."

"I need to hit someting." Kendra suddenly said after a few minutes of silence.

'She is a Wayne.' Alfred thought to himself as he smiled. "Come with me then dear. I'll show you where the Wayne family gym is."

"Can I ask you one more question, Alfred?" at his nod she continued. "Why are you so accepting of me?"

"I learned a long time ago to be an excellent judge of character." Alfred replied as he held his arm out for her to take. "Now come along Miss Wayne."

Taking his arm, Kendra walked out of the batcave and towards one of the mansions many rooms.

Later That Night

The Batcave

"I've had time to fully analyze the spot where this girl came from." a handsome man, that looked to be in his mid-thirties said as he paced around the batcave.

"And?" Batman asked impatiently.

"And there's a tainted aura coming from the spot where she appeared in the mall."

"Is it coming from her?"

"No, but rather whatever sent her here."

"Is there a way to send her back to her own dimension?" Batman asked as he stood to his feet.

"There is." Jason said letting out a heavy sigh. "The only problem is that whomever sent her here used so much power that it would take me about six month's to match it and open up another portal."

"Send Kendra down to the batcave." Batman said as he pushed an intercom button on the batcomputer.

"I'm sorry sir, but she isn't here." Alfred's voice said over the speaker.

"What? Where is she?"

"She said that she was going out to patrol for demons sir."

"Demons?" Jason asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I have a bad feeling about this." Batman replied as he severed the communications link.

"As do I my friend." Jason said putting a hand on his shoulder.

"Gotham is big and it's gonna take..." visibly shaking, Jason cut Batman off as he started his poem.

Change, change the form of man.

Free the prince forever damned.

Free the might from fleshy mire.

Boil the blood in heart of fire.

Gone, gone the form of man,

and rise the demon Etrigan!

After the poem hellfire surrounded Jason's body and in a mere second he turned into a squat, muscular demon wearing a red tunic, with orange skin, horns, red eyes, and ears resembling bat wings.

"I can still track her aura." Etrigan told the bat. "Now come, she hasn't gotten to far."

Kendra clutched her stake tightly as she walked through the cold and dark city of Gotham. This place was officially one of the scariest places she had ever been in her life. She hadn't run into any demons yet, but it still seemed to her that anything could jump out at her at any minute from the shadows.

'Maybe I should just go back to de manor.' she thought to herself and that's when she heard a scream. 'Maybe not.' quickening her pace she ran down a dark and narrow alley and saw two men pushing a woman back and forth between them. Sensing a demonic presence nearby she immediately jumped to conclusions.

"Hey!" Kendra yelled out as she punched the lead man in the face. Taking that as her que, the woman turned around and ran out of the alley. Before the other one could turn, Kendra was already sending out a rainbow kick that lifted him off of his feet and sent him bouncing off of the wall then to the urine stained ground unconcious.

Before Kendra realized that the men weren't demons, she heard the hammer from a gun being pulled back, behind her head.

"You just made a big mistake bitch." the thug growled out. Quickly using her Slayer agility, Kendra attempted to knock the gun out of the man's hand only for it to go off.

"I can feel her nearby." Etrigan said as he and Batman dropped down onto a building. They were flying in the batjet, but according to Etrigan the place where they needed to go was very narrow. "She's right down..." he was cut off as the loud bang of a gun pierced the night.

Immediately taken aback by the noise Batman jumped off the edge of the building, spread his cape, and glided down into an alley. With a raised eyebrow Etrigan did the same and followed him.

Holding onto her side, Kendra pulled her hand away and saw blood. Losing her strength, she fell down to one knee and looked up at the thug who now pointed his gun at her face.

"Be seeing you."

"I think not." a voice growled from behind him. Turning, he was lifted off of his feet by a powerful punch by Batman. Not knowing that it was Kendra, who had fallen over in a puddle of her own blood, Batman strattled the thug and buried him with punch after punch to his face. He barely even registered Etrigan yelling his name, until the big demon practically growled.

"Batman!" snapping out of his daze, Batman looked at who he was beating and he was barely recognizable as a man at all. His nose was clearly broken, both his eyes were swollen shut, and severe bloody lacerations littered his face.

Looking at his bloody gloved fist, Batman dropped the man on the ground and turned around. As he did so, his eyes widened when he saw Etrigan holding Kendra in his arms, with blood dripping out of her side and on the ground.

'Not again.' he thought to himself as he took a step back. It was just like seeing Jason all over again.

Gotham Memorial

thirty minutes later

Bruce Wayne ran quickly through the medical ward and looked around for a nurse. As soon as he and Etrigan dropped Kendra off, he left Etrigan in the batcave while he went into the manor to get changed into regular clothes.

"Nurse!" he yelled out as he saw one passing by a table. "There was a girl admitted here almost half an hour ago and..."

"Calm down sir." the nurse replied as she struggled out of his grasp and walked over to the nurses station. "Now what was the girls name?"

"Her name is Kendra."

"I have a listing for two Kendra's sir. Now what's her last name?"

"It's Wayne, Kendra Wayne. She's...she's my daughter."

Opening a door to room 211, Bruce peeked his head in and saw Kendra trying to sit up in bed. Luckily for her the bullet didn't hit any organs and the doctor said that she would be fine. Seeing that she was alone, he snuck in.

"You shouldn't try to move so soon." he commented as he walked all the way into the room, pulled up a chair, and sat down beside the bed.

"My...my Slayer healing will fix it soon." Kendra replied with a wince.

"Kendra what the were you thinking?" he asked in a whisper. "Why did you leave without telling me anything? You don't know anything about this universe."

"It wouldn't have mattered if I had've died." she reminded him. "When one Slayer dies, anodder takes her place."

Bruce wanted to tell her that, that was a lie. He wanted to tell her that she was unique, special and that she was going to have a nice normal life, but from what little he now knew about the Slayer he knew what she was saying was true. Plus he didn't really even know her. But when he looked into her eyes, he saw a little of himself there. A child forever tainted by darkness.

"Besides it's de nature of de Slayer to hunt demons. I couldn't just sit around knowing dat someone could be in danger and dat I had de power to help dem."

"I know how you feel." Bruce said glumly. Some nights he layed awake, wishing that he could stop, but it was truly an addiction.

"Den train me." Kendra said as she gave his hand a squeeze.

"What?"

"I said train me." she repeated. "I don't know how long I'll be in dis world..."

"Six month's." Bruce interrupted. It took Kendra a minute to wrap around that fact but she went on.

"I can't help but feel dat I'm here for a reason Bruce." she said as she gave his hand another squeeze. "And I tink I'm here for you."

"What are you saying?"

"I'm saying dat, Alfred told me about Jason."

"Kendra don't..."

"He didn't tell me all of what happened, but I know it wasn't your fault. My fodder would do anyting possible to help someone. He would never..."

"I'm not that man Kendra!" Bruce interrupted angrily as he let go of her hand. "You don't know me. You don't know about the things I've done and had to do."

"Den give me de opportunity to know you." she said, ignoring his anger. And for the first time she looked deep into his eyes and saw that they weren't gentle like the Bruce in her dimension. But rather she saw something else, that she would later know was a deep and dark pain. "It wasn't a coincidence dat when I came too this dimension dat you were de one to save me. And even if you don't train me, I'll go out dare again if somebody needs me."

'She's stubborn just like me.' Bruce realized before he leaned down and kissed her on the forehead. He didn't know why he kissed her, but it just felt like the most natural thing in the world to do. "Get some sleep, I'll be back tomorrow to pick you up."

And without another word, he walked out of the door. He had to get home because he had alot of thinking to do.

Kendra looked at his retreating form and smiled. For a second there she saw a little of the Bruce she knew in him. Closing her eyes and laying back on her pillow, she silently prayed that her friends were alright.

Sunnydale

The Backstage of the Bronze

Flicking out his cigarette, a figure watched from the shadows as a beautiful woman with fiery red hair, wearing all leather shoved a tall man with spiked hair in front of her.

"Looky, looky what I found." the woman spoke as she pushed the man hard making him fall to his knees. It was then seen that his wrists were bound.

"Well if it isn't the former scourge of europe himself." the vampire said as he stepped out of the shadows. He was wearing black jeans, and a leather jacket with a wife beater underneath. "The Master will be pleased."

"No..." Angel said as he looked up at him and shivered. All he could think at the time is how betrayed he felt by Whistler. The balance demon told him to come to Sunnydale and the Slayer Buffy wasn't even there. And to be caught by one of the Master's leuitenants because he was trying to save people...

"Shutup dead boy!" Xander growled angrily, as he shifted into his demonic visage and punched Angel hard on the face.

"Be easy on him baby." Willow said with a fake pout as she sashayed up to him. "You know the Master get's first dibs on him."

"Whatever you say baby." Xander said as he slipped back into his human guise and kissed her on the lips. "Just as long as I'm there to watch. Now take him away."

Suddenly two vampires stepped out of the shadows of the room and hauled Angel to his feet. Shaking with fear, Angel was led to another room as vamp Xander and Willow looked on with a smile.

"You think the Master will let me play with our new puppy?" Willow asked. Not getting an immediate response, she looked over and saw that her lovers brow furrowed with confusion. "What's the matter baby?"

"Nothing." Xander replied as he shook his head clear. "It just felt like somebody I know was close. Forget about it, let's just go and see what the boss has planned." he said already hearing the first of Angel's screams.

A/N Barbara had a spare set of clothes at the mansion, so when she took off her Batgirl suit she would have something to wear. Also this fic will get dark later on and it will contain a lot of character death before it's end.
