I have no name, I belong no place, I am on my own, no one can help me. I have no name, I belong no place, I am on my own, no one can help me. I have no name, I belong no place, I am on my own, no one can help me.

My name is Karra Wayne, I have a house, I have a home, I have people who love and care for me, there are other people who can help me.

Karra, or more accurately Midnight was running across rooftops around Gotham when she got to the docs. 

Doc 17, storage unit 23, all the way back. This is where we agreed to meet. Opening the smallest of the doors she slipped in, and shut the door behind her. "Hey K, you in here?" she softly yelled through the sparse place.

"Over here." From the far left corner, boxes covered the spot from visibility, a good thing too, with as little as there was in here she needed a good spot to hide in.

Midnight, "I'm dressed up, Daddy give me this costume to let me help him. I'm sorry I haven't been here for a while, Daddy wouldn't let me off for a month after I got hurt so I couldn't get away. You OK?"

The girl laying on the floor looked like an exact replica of Karra, long black hair that went past her waist, dark black eyes, and being 6 average height for her age, 4'1". Even her voice sounded the same. "Yeah, just a little hungry, what have you got?"

Midnight pulled out a sack she had kept hidden underneath her cape, "I have a bag of chips, apples, bananas, and your favorite, I got Alfred to make some chocolate covered pretzels.  I don't know how that man makes such good food but he can work miracles let me tell 'ya. Oh, and a can of pees for after I leave."

They had a laugh at that, "You tell him about me yet?" The heavy question, was in stark contrast to the light food that midnight had brought.

Midnight put down the banana she was eating, "No, not yet, I'm afraid that if I tell him too soon, he'll flip his lid. I heard from Nightwing, you know the first Robin, that he had started losing it ever since Tim Drake, the last Robin, left. Since I came in as Midnight I heard him talking about how The Batman, isn't The Batman anymore. The Batman doesn't smile or laugh or show emotion, and he now does that when I'm around, Nightwing doesn't like that. He thinks I'm bad for Dad. He does know that I am his daughter but, I hope, he is the only person that knows." Sadness lined her face, she had taken off her mask a long while ago so it was like looking into a mirror, when Kayla spoke back.

Kayla, "That seams complicated." She was sad too, "I just want to see Daddy as soon as I can."

Karra, "I know, Kayla, I know."

They sat in silence for a long time before Midnight got up and asked, "what time is it?"

Kayla "I don't know I'm not the one with a watch."

Karra laughed, "Yeah that's right," she pulled back her sleeve just enough to see the time, "HOLY CRAP! I'ts 6 in the morning! I've got to go Daddy will be so mad at me for staying out so late! I hope I can get back to the cave without anyone seeing me." They rushed to clean up everything they had even touched, "I'll meet you at three next right?"

Kayla, "There already I thought, we were only at 16?"

Karra, "No we already did that we're on three."

Kayla, "OK, see you there."

They departed Kayla traveling south, Midnight going north, back to the Batcave then up into the mansion. I hope I can get there before Daddy freaks out. So much for trying to impress him. You probably just set yourself back a month.

Stay Whelmed :)
