"Uh, Bruce. We've got a problem." I pressed the button on my earpiece and spoke to bruce, shoving through the front door of the bar and hurriedly walking to my bike.

"What? Did you get her?"

"No. She ditched the tracker." I sat on my bike, rolling the tracker in my fingers. "She also knocked two guys out, stole one of the guy's clothes and motorcycle, and broke a creep's wrist." I rolled my eyes, swinging my leg over the bike and placing my gloved hands on the handles. "I didn't think it was her..she slipped right by me.."

"Damnit!" He curses, and I can hear him slam something down. "Wait, I'm getting something on her from Bat Computer." Harsh keyboard typing. "Facial recognition shows her walking into Gotham Inn, which is downtown..I'm sending the location to your phone."

My "work" phone beeped, pulling up the location and directions to Gotham Inn. I revv up the engine, sliding on my helmet and smirking.

"On my way."

It only took me about 15 minutes to get to the hotel, considering I weaved through traffic and ran every red light there was. Once I parked my motorcycle and removed my gear, I went straight to the check in counter.

"She used the name Jessica Williams." Bruce reminded me through the static of the radio.

I gave the the lady at the counter my award winning smile, making her swoon for me already. "Hey, gorgeous. I was wondering what room I could find Jessica Williams in? She told me to stop by." I run my fingers through my black and gray hair, smirking slightly while looking into her brown eyes.

She began typing on her computer, her cheeks turning bright red. "Y-yeah, Floor 7, room 234." She looked back into my eyes, practically drooling.

"Thank you. See you around." I turned on my heels, heading to the elevator.

After a short ride up to the seventh floor, I made my way to her door. I pressed my ear against the door, hearing the sound of a blow dryer blowing. I hesitantly knocked, pulling my SIG P226 handgun out, aiming it at the door while I wait for her to open it. The dryer stops, and the sound the locks on the door being unlocked meet my ears. Finally, she opens the door.

Dear god, Alfred was right. She was quite the looker, especially since all that blood on her face was gone. Her blonde hair cascades over her shoulders, down to her hips like a river. Her lips are a bright pink, and her eyes are a deep blue. She still has the same all black outfit that she stole on. I could go on and on about her bea-

"Are you going to say anything or just stare at me like an idiot while pointing a gun at my head?" Her british accent is so clear. I shake my head and snap out of my trance.

"I'm going to shoot you in the head if you don't cooperate. Look, all we need for you to do-" I get cut off by a little kid shouting.

"Mommy! He's got a gun!" The little boy looks at me.

Suddenly, Evey pulls me inside and peeks her head out of the door.

"No, dear. Its a toy gun! Everythings fine." She shuts the door, turning to face me while I still have the gun at her head.

Okay....what the hell was that? Does she actually care about those little brats?

"What? Aren't you going to threaten me some more or something?" She tilted her head to the side, crossing her arms and lifting a brow. I hadn't realized I was staring at her like a confused dog.

"W-why did you- I mean why do you care about what the civi-" I was cut off by a hard kick to my wrist. My gun flew to the wall so hard there was a hole where it had impacted.

She dropped down, hitting me with the same sweep kick she did back at the cave successfully making me fall on my back. Hard. She dropped down on my belly, making me heave out air. She cupped her small hand around my neck tightly, smirking.

"I just figured if you were going to blow my brains out the kid shouldn't have to see. That would mess up his childhood." She shrugs, her face hardening. "Why are you following me? Huh?"

"We just want to help you..princess.." I breathe out.

"Help me? I don't need help."

"Oh really?" I punch her hard in the stomach, specifically where the blood is. "You ripped your stitches. The blood was seeping through. We can stitch you up."

She falls over onto her back, giving me the chance to pin her down. "You say you want to stitch me up, yet you try to give me more stitches. I don't understand."

"You don't have to understand me, princess." I give my signature smirk and lean down close to her face, but she doesn't budge. Weird. You'd think after that she'd be wrapped around my finger.

"Fuck you, asshole. Don't call me princess." She head butts me, my nose blood getting on her forehead.

As I reach for my nose she gets free, standing up and front kicking me into the wall. The painting above falls down, smashing into my head and breaking.

"Oh, you've done it now." I hiss.

I charge at her with speed, slamming her into the wall and pinning her arms above her head.

"This would be sexy if you weren't trying to kidnap me."

Smirking, I press my lips against her neck and speak in a low voice. "Are you sure it isn't?"

Her cheeks turn bright red, causing her to look down. I chuckle and pick her chin up. She looks me in the eyes and bites her bottom lip. How cute.

"I'm sorry, I'll...ill go.." she finally agrees to going. Now I don't have to knock her beautiful ass out. Plus, blood doesn't look good on her. "out the window!" Her knee drives into my crotch, sending me backwards.

"Fuck!" I can't believe the little brat did that. Her acting skills...she deserves a god damn award.

She opens up the window, perching and staring back at me with MY motorcycle keys jangle in her hands. "Nice bike, i think I'll take it for a spin."

"No wait!" I run to the window as she jumps out. Now all I see is her sprinting across the grass, to my bike, hopping on and riding off. That little snake. Thank god bruce got me a self destruct button on it.

Pressing a button on my phone I smirk, crossing my arms and staring down at her as she rides off farther, almost out of my view. "3...2...1..."
