It was late, around eight o'clock now when he got a call. He was on his way home from the precinct. Music blasting and a smile on his face. There was nothing more satisfying then taking down criminals. His phone was ringing, turning down the music he put the call on Bluetooth. "Hello" he said in a cheerful voice. On the other end he could hear erraric breathing and sniffles. "This is Officer Grayson right, Mar'i's fath'a?" a feminine voice asked.

He reached over and turned the radio off. The car now flooded with silence. "Yeah, who is this?" he asked pulling the car over to the side of the rode. He put it in park before shifting in his seat uncomfortable. "I'm the woman who saved yer girlfriend, Zatanna. Mar'i an Melody are supposed ta be home but they aren't. They left a note saying thay they were going to the park" she said, by now it was pitch black and the streetlights were turning on.

"You let them go to the park?" he yelled.

"I didn't! I went to work, a lady has to work to sustain herself and her daught'a y'know!" she hollered back.

"Okay where do you live?" he asked setting the car to drive.

Early he was told that Mar'i was staying over at a friend's house. Automatically he thought she was going to Damian's. The young girl didn't have many friend's so the thought was automatic. Dick had met the woman who saved Zatanna once. She was kind and a little bit crazy. In fact her and her daughter stayed at their place for a day or two.

However with his job he was barely at the house. He had only spoken to the woman once or twice before now. She gave him the address and he raced over. Making a quick call to Zatanna and Kori to let them know the situation. "We're on our way now, what park is it?" Zatanna asked through the phone. Apparently she was still over at Kori's place. "Angelwing Park" he answered, his hands were beginning to get clammy.

This was his daughter and she could be potentially kidnapped at the moment. Gotham was dangerous as it was but even more so at night. The phone line went dead soon after. Just as he pulled into the park. "Mar'i where are you" he whispered to himself as he grabbed a flashlight.

Today she had no classes, lucky for her. At the moment she was working on two different projects. The stress levels were high. "Babe I'm home!" her boyfriend shouted from the front door. He was greeted with silence as he strided into the main room. The blonde sitting on the floor in front of the coffee table. Different sets of binders, papers, and pencils strewn about across the top of the table.

A fast food bag hung loosely in his hand. He was kind enough to drop by the nearest café on his way home to pick up food. "I brought food" he said setting her bag down on the table beside her. A sigh escaped her lips as she tore her eyes away from the laptop in front of her face. Standing up she grabbed the bag and shuffled past him to the kitchen. He took notice to her attire, his sweatshirt and sweatpants. "Couldn't find anything to wear?" he asked amused.

"Beautiful I know" she mumbled glancing over at him.

His tongue darted across his lips as he smirked.
