Hey y'all, just letting you know that it will always be Catgirl's POV, unless I tell you otherwise. And if it says that it is someone's POV in the title, it is only going to be their POV for the whole chapter!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Ugh....." I groaned to myself,  as I'm laying on my bed, bored with nothing to do, because Bruce had to leave on patrol without me. My name is Dick Grayson, the first Robin.

"Master Dick, Master Bruce requires your presence in the bat cave." Alfred says, surprising me.

"Oh, great!" I rush around my room grabbing parts of my Robin uniform, and then scramble down to the bat cave. As I walk in to the ginormous library, my footsteps were muffled by the embroidered rug, as i made my way over to the piano that would open the door to the bat cave. I quickly press the right notes, trailing my fingers over the ivory and obsidian keys, as the grandfather clock across the room slides open.

"Bruce?" I call, climbing down the stairs to the batcave. 

I walk in, seeing him hunched over the giant bat computer, searching up..... Catwoman's known address?!? "Bruce, what are you doing?" I ask getting to the point.

"Work." Is his deadpanned, one word reply. I roll my eyes, and step over behind him. I smirk and say, "Why are you stalking Catwoman? Planning a visit?" Just to get on his nerves

Bruce turns his chair around, and gives me a 'really?' look, and I grin sarcastically, teasing him. Bruce just turns back around, like the boring person he is, and tells me his plan. 

"We are going to find out where Catwoman lives, there have been sightings of her going into this apartment a around week ago. She has stolen a rare and priceless jewel called the cats eye emerald," I cut him off and snort "Of course." He gives me a look and I shut up. He continues, 

"It is extremely valuable, and she cannot get away with this. It is worth about as much as all of the equipment Wayne Enterprises owns, and it must be returned to the museum." I whistle, "wow..... That's a lot of money." 

"We are going to search her apartment for this gem, hopefully she stored it around there, but it's our only hope currently." Bruce states. I don't question him, but instead go to change into my Robin outfit, but the unspoken thought is hovering over both of our heads, 'what if she's home?'

~TIME SKIP~

We park the Batmobile in an alley not to far away from the apartment, and grapple the rest of the way.   We land on the slated roof of the apartment building, and search for an inconspicuous way in, without disturbing the rest of the building. 

We locate all possible entrances, and we decide on the balcony. We nod at each other, and I sprint across the rooftop, feeling the wind in my hair, and loving the feeling of it. I do a flip off the roof, and land on the balcony with a soft thump. Batman lands silently behind me, and I take note of the frosted glass doors, and the luxurious flowers that clearly had Poison Ivy's help.

"I think that we're in the right place." I say with a smirk, looking at the black cat lounging around in the flowers.

Batman just grunts, and kicks the doors open. We glide in, and Batman shouts, 

"Selina! Come out, we know where you are, now hand over yourself and the cats eye emerald!"

We look around the dance apartment, seeing no one, and I vault over a chair, and creep over to a set of drawers, and start poking around with a smirk on my face.

The bat, now satisfied that nobody was here, headed to Selina's room to look for the emerald. I knew what I was doing. I looked in all the drawers, feeling for secret compartments, and lifting all of the chair and couch cushions. I spotted a desk, and I ran my hand over the smooth mahogany wood, before looking through it. I was about to head into the kitchen to poke around there, but just then Batman called me.
