When Bruce got home he was furious. He ran right up to Camilla's room ready to send her away to a private boarding school in the alps.
"First off where the hell is your door?" he asked when he entered the room. He saw the two boys cuddling Cam and calmed down a little.
"Jason was trying to be my knight and shining armor."
"That's sweet," he said sarcastically. "Can you two leave us. I need at least some privacy with her." The two boys got off the bed and exited not wanting to get in his way.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" he yelled right when when they left.
"I guess you heard."
"You were screwing your teacher?!" he yelled at her.
"Who told you?" she said softly.
"Mrs. Martin overheard your conversation with Mrs. Thomas. She also said you broke his noise which not only am I probably going to pay for but now I may have a lawsuit on my hands with Derek."
"Oh I'm sorry I got raped. It's all my fault," Cam said fake whining. The man she's known for almost 8 years was despising her at this very moment and she was just pissing him off more and more.
"You know that's not what I meant."
"Then what the hell did you mean?!"
"Why didn't you come to me? Why wait till today?"
"Because you would've said 'I told you so' or some parent comment of some sort and I didn't want to deal with your shit after a situation like that. Also it's not like I wanted everyone to know that happened to me. I can already see the headlines. 'Bruce Wayne's daughter wants all the attention.'" She put her head in her hands trying to hold in her sobs.
"I don't understand, Cam? Why? Why are you acting out now?" She looked up at Bruce. Anger and confusion mixing inside her.
"Are you fucking kidding me?!" This is it. This is what makes her explode. And everyone in the house is going to hear it whether they want to or not. "This isn't acting out. This is you recognizing what I've done. I've snuck around your back since I've been living here. I'm sorry you were so fucking clueless." Bruce was stunned.
"Are you fucking kidding me?!"
"I'm sorry daddy's little girl turns out to be a such a whore." Those last words hung in the air. Bruce was boiling on the inside and she finally felt a release.
"You're grounded."
"Wasn't I already?" Bruce rolled his eyes and started pacing the room.
"What else can I take away? Patrol privileges? Your debit card? I don't know what the hell to do with you anymore." Bruce started pacing the room. He looked at her one last time before leaving. Cam got under the covers and for once googled her name. All the article titles were so nasty.

She read article after article and was disgusted. Is this how people really saw me? She had tears streaming down her face. She kept her cries silent in fear of one of the family members hearing.
How did my life become such a mess? I have it all. A rich dad who pays for anything. A family who could love me forever-
It was well over 4 am and she finally found herself asleep. Until there a was a movement in her room. She jolted up and looked around her room.
"That was a disaster last night?" She saw in the corner, a silhouette. An outline of a man. Tall, slender with a sinister voice.
"Joker?"
"Somewhat in the flesh," he said coming out of the shadow. "People can't keep your name out of their mouth. Some people are so cruel. You're barely an adult. They should give you a break." Cam didn't know whether to scream or walk out but instead just stayed put. In fact she relaxed.
"What do you want?"
"You."
"Why me?"
"Because you're different. I've read up on you and you've had a perfect life."
"And you want too..."
"How do I put this lightly...?" He walked over to her bed side, slowly taking his time. "I want to see how far I can push you mentally. Emotionally." He leaned in close to her ear and said, "Physically." She flinched and pushed herself away from him.
"Did you honestly think you could walk in here and get me?"
"Well...yes." He smiled wide.

Bruce was in his study drinking one of Jason's many whiskey bottles. That's when he heard the scream. The ear shattering scream. He dropped his glass and ran straight to Cam's room. When he got there he saw the family surrounded her room.
"Bruce," Dick said.
"Where is she?"
"Gone," Jason said taking a sip of his bottle. Bruce's heart sank. He entered the room and saw a message on the wall written in blood.
You'll Never Get Her Back
Bruce stared at it. He examined it. Then he pushed passed everyone. They followed closely behind.
"What are we going to do?" Cassie asked, worriedly.
"You guys are staying. I'm going alone," he said as he entered the elevator.
"I'm coming with," Dick said pushing his way into the elevator. Bruce rolled his eyes.
"Me too," Jason said.
"No one else. Alfred get everyone to bed. I am sorry to keep you up this late but could you-"
"Camilla's room will be clean by the time you come back. Just bring her home." Bruce pushed the button down.
