Here I stand

Empty hands

Wishing my wrists were bleeding

To stop the pain from the beatings

There you stood

Holding me

Waiting for me to notice you

But who are you?

You are the Truth

Outscreaming these lies

Saving my life

~Flyleaf-Red Sam

"Uh…" was all I could spit out from my stunned trance. I had made SURE no one had followed me. And now the city's scariest hero had seen me kill what he thought was a man. How would I explain this? Where was Frankie, dammit??

He grabbed me by my shoulders and growled" I've been following you for a while Cassandra." He was awfully close to me, and I don't like being touched much.

"My face needs space!" And with a swift kick to the shin, I darted towards the street after he released me. I was just about to cross when several blue lights got in my way. Blue lights connected to cop cars. FRICK!!

Cops swarmed all over and advanced towards me. "Howdy." I said cheerfully, while trying to plan my escape. Prison would really put a strain on my career right now. I retreated and ended up backing into the wall again. I faced him and said in the bitchiest way I could , "You're a friggin tank ya know that? Damn."

LATER…

I fidgeted in my hard brown chair, sighing, praying to God that my katana and Frankie were safe. Man was it late. It had only been 8:00 pm when I had killed the vamp, but it was 11:00 when I last saw a clock about an hour ago. I leaned my head back and rapped my fingers impatiently against the table, then glanced at the one-way mirror. Make-up check, good, needed a shower though.

That's when a cop walked in. He had graying hair, mustache and glasses. "Cassandra Elinor Slade?" he questioned.

Cassie please." I said yawning.

"I'm Commissioner Gordon, I'd like to talk to you about last night"

"Shoot" I said with little interest, though I was panicking inside. What do I do? I can't lie cause Batman saw me, and I can't tell the truth cause I'll end up in a some mental institution and crap.

"You were seen in an alley with a sword of some kind-"

"Katana." I interrupted.

"Right, and a witness claims that you have been stalking the man that you killed with your sword-"

"Katana." I said again

"That you killed with your katana-"

"And by witness you mean The Batman right?" I said sgrinning. "That guy's a friggin' wall."

"Yes, it was him. Does that upset you?" He seemed annoyed with my constant interruptions.

"Nah, just doin' his job…sorta. I mean he sure did screw up my plans, but yeah," I said thoughtfully. I really wasn't pissed or anything.

"It says here that you're wanted in 26 states for several counts of grand theft, burglary, kidnapping, murder, impersonation of government officials, trespassing, destruction of private and public property, arson, and grave robbery." He finished with a small gasp, seeming out of breath.

I didn't say anything. So he continued.

"The funny thing is, when you defiled those graves you never took anything, you just burned the bodies."

I was royally screwed. What would he say if I told the truth? I'd take a whack at it.

"That's to get rid of the ghosts." I confessed. " You have to salt and burn the bones of a ghost if you're being haunted."

"You, wait, what?" He said incredulously. "Ghosts? Are you trying to tell me you kill ghosts?"

"I know what you're thinking, and you're wrong. I'm not crazy, nor am I lying. I hunt demons and other supernatural creatures for a living. Well, I don't make any money out of it, so I can't really call it a living, can I?" Crap, Crap, Crap! What was I thinking? FRANKIE!!! I sighed and ran my fingers through my short bronze hair. "And that "person" I just killed wasn't a person at all. It was a vampire."

When Gordon said, "Vampire, uh, right. I'll be right back." I knew I was screwed.

"Wait, can't I call someone?" I called out, hoping I could hatch a plan with Frankie, but he got up from the table left me rather quickly. He doesn't believe me??? Aww, EPIC FAIL!! I knew I should've lied!

And that is how I ended up in the creepiest, most villain infested mental hospital in the history of forever. Arkham-freaking-Asylum.

Weeeell! Is this okay? Btw I'm sorry about lying to you that this chapter would funnier, but it certainly is longer. I'll introduce some awesome people when Cassie gets into Arkham. Please review and tell meh what you think!!!!!!!!
