Tears fall down my face. Neither Bruce or I speak a word. Right now we are sitting on the stairs of the fire escape. A blanket wrapped around both us. The cops have arrived to the so called crime scene. Nobody has even tried to talk to us yet. Probably talking about how shocked they are.

I would've talked to Bruce through our telepathic minds but I knew he wouldn't answer. We can only speak to each other though.

I look upwards to see a man walk towards us. "My name is James Gordan." He says. "I'm a detective at the G.C.P.D. What's your names?" He asks.

At first we didn't say anything. "It's ok. You don't have to-"

"Alexandra." I say cutting him off. "My name is Alexandra. This is Bruce, my twin brother." I tell him.

"What's your last name?" Detective Gordan asks.

"Wayne." Bruce finally speaks. Detective Gordan bends down next to us. "Can one of you tell me what happened?" He asks.

I looked over at Bruce and he was looking towards the ground. Detective Gordan gets up and sit in the small space next to us.

"When I was about your age, a drunk driver hit our car. Killed my dad. I was right next to him." I looked at him, very shocked.

"I know how you guys feel right now. And I promise you, however dark and scary the world may be right now...but there will be light. There will be light Bruce, Alexandra."

" Please call me Alex." I say to him. He nods. I start to tell him the story.

"We just got out of the movies." I say. I'm on the verge of tears but I keep them in. "We were walking in the alley to catch a cab. A man came out from behind the corner. He was tall had a mask on. Hat, gloves, and shiny shoes. He took my father's wallet and mother's necklace. Then, he shot them. For no reason." I tell him. "We did everything he said and he still shot them."

"I should've done something . But I was too scared." Bruce says.

"There was nothing you could've done to stop what happened. There is something you can do now. You can be strong. Both of you. I promise you both, I will find the man who did this." He tells us.

"I believe you Jim." I say.

"How did you know my name was Jim?" He asks with raised eyebrows. "It was a guess."

Bruce looks up and then jumps off the steps. I towards his direction after seeing the person I run towards them.

I run into Alfred's arms and let out a small sob. It's only us.

"James Gordan." He introduces himself.

"Alfred Pennyworth." Alfred tells him. Alfred is our butler, but I guess he's our guardian now.

"Were gonna catch the guy that did this sir." Detective Gordan tells him.

"New bot are you?" Alfred asks.

"You could say."

"Good luck mate." Alfred tells him. He grabs Bruce and I and starts to push us towards the car. "It's going to be okay, don't let anyone see you cry." Alfred tells us.

********************

I'm in my room right now reading the book mother gave me for my birthday. War & Peace. It's a pretty good book once you read it.

I need to go see Jim. But how?

I change out of my pajamas and put on some jeans, combat boots, and a black hoodie. I guess it's time to go. But it's to early and Alfred won't let me out. Okay I need to do this. I walk over to the doors of my patio and open them.
