I've been living in this house for two days now and I thought I would feel happy that no one was begging me and bothering me but I didn't.I felt alone and empty,Karen may have begged for me to get her drugs but I still cared for her like she was someone who never had a chance to show her true and good side.
I sat on the couch and didn't care that this was the couch she was on because nothing really mattered to me anymore,I felt like I could just go to the kitchen grab a knife,if we had one,and slit my throat but even something inside me told me...life wasn't finished with me yet.
I gave a long yawn and looked at the digital clock on the table,8:33pm.It read and I felt my eyes grow heavy,I turned off the lamp next to me and started walking upstairs to my room but right when I got to the top her door just had to be open.I looked inside and frowned,I walked in and looked around not really sure what she had in her room.
Her walls were littered with old posters of rock bands like The Beatles and Bob Marley,her mattress had a queen sized blanket with a tiger on it and two pillows.
Her bed looked inviting and I laid down not putting the blankets on,I curled into a ball and fell into a deep sleep.

CRASH!!!

I jolted from my slumber and looked around not sure what was going on until I saw an orange flickering outside,I looked out the window and saw Spike's posse but the only thing was,where was Spike?

"Come on!"someone said downstairs.

I stopped suddenly and knew exactly what was going on,I ran to my room and found one of my old boxes which had my dad's old bat.I slowly went out the hallway then saw what I was doing and dropped the bat not caring if I startled Spike.I walked downstairs and saw Spike with two of his guys,they glared at me and pulled out there guns but I sighed and looked at Spike.

"What are you guys doing here?"I asked him.

"This is new territory now,so if you're smart you leave now."he growled as he pulled out a spray can.

I glared at him,"This is private property and if I were you I wouldn't do anything stupid."

"Oh yeah and whataya gonna do about it?Last time we kicked your little ass,bitch."Spike barked.

"Last warning!"I snarled.

They looked terrified now,there faces went white like a ghost and I think one of his guys peed himself.
I smirked at how I got them scared but then a dark shadow engulfed mine,I turned around and saw them.My eyes went wide,it can't be!

"You heard the girl,last warning."Robin said.

"Look we don't want no trouble."Spike told them as he dropped his duffle bag of spray paints.

"You should've thought about that before beating her."Batman growled and pounced on Spike,who screamed like a little girl.

Wait before beating me?

"You ok?"Robin asked as he punched Spike's guys out.

I nodded but I was still wondering what Batman meant by beating me,they never even laid a hand on me!
Once they had Spike and his guys rounded up I heard the sirens which meant Ms.Linch had called.

"Lets go."Batman ordered but was looking at me.

I watched them go to the front door but they turned to look at me,

"What?"I asked.

"Lets go."Robin said.

"What?!"I exclaimed.

"You're coming with us."
