New Chances - (Nightwing x OC)

Chapter 2

Tuesday - 11.30 pm

POV KAYLA 

"MUM!!" 

Hehehehe. Kid had it coming. 

"WHAT!!" Shit. Time to run. 

I climbed to the roof tops, jumping and running into the suburbs of Gotham. Careful to try to stick to the shadows. I kept running, until I reached a gap to large to hop onto. I collect my thoughts, when a shadow quickly covered me. Then another. Two figures jumped roof to roof. One with a cape and the all too famous pointy ears. Now this could make my night interesting. 

I continued, following in their direction. Just a little interested in what they were doing. I never really ran into Batman on my night patrols. They jumped down into alleyway. I stopped, knowing too well that Batman was smart enough to know when someone was tailing him.  I looked down into the alley. No sign that they were there. Shit. How does he do that? Then, a high pitched scream came to my attention. Right, action time. It sounded as if it was two blocks away. 

I reached the street where the scream originated from. I quickly assessed the situation. Careful not to fly into trouble. It was a simple purse snatching. I jumped from the ladder, silently making my way over to the thug. 

"Not to be rude, but I don't think pastel pink is really your color." I said making myself known.

"What the hell?!" 

"Yeah. That's what I was thinking." With that I punched him square in the jaw, and kicked him right in the stomach. I snatched the bag out from his grip, and handed it back to the lady. 

"Oh my God! Thank you!" I ensured her it was no problem, when all of a sudden I was kicked forwards onto the ground.

"Call the cops and wait around the corner." I directed as I patted myself off.

xXx

Long story short, I wiped the path with his ass. Can't help it!

I was throwing this guy to the ground, when I heard sirens. About time. I walked over to the car to meet with the officer.

"Officer. This ma-" All of a sudden I was thrown onto the bonnet of the car. He started to repeat my rights, as I was shoved into the car, with my hands cuffed. 

Oh. This was gonna be a long night.

Wednesday - 2.00 am

I was currently sitting in the Gotham City's Police Deparment's holding cell. 

How the hell was I going to get through this? I got caught around 12 am so give or take its probably 2 am. Way past the time I would usually finish my patrol. I keep getting starred at, like I'm the freshest meat since their days in high school. I just keep looking down. The last thing I need is getting into a fight and worsen my situation. 

"Kayla Walker?"

Ugh. 

"Up against the wall. Your being taken into questioning. " 

Lucky me!

I was taken into a room and cuffed to the table. The officer that brought me in, finished setting the room up and left. 

POV COMMISSIONER GORDON 

It had been a long day at the office, and it wasn't gonna stop anytime soon. We'd had a few normal crooks in today. But one struck out, clearly unlike the rest. When she was brought in, I was given a folder that included her known details, alibi, and other related facts and notes. 

I hate this part of the process. Because on a normal day people just deny what they're being charged for, and as a detective, you never get anywhere with that. 

I walked into the room and saw her playing with her fingers. However, she stopped as soon as she saw me. 

POV KAYLA 

How is one supposed to act in a questioning, when they're being accused of harassing and basically beating up a crook. Like, let's be honest. Now is not the time for me to be my normal sarcastic, defensive self. I continued playing with my fingers. Just a stupid thing I used to do when nervous. However, it was cut short when I heard the door open to reveal the Commissioner. 

xXx

"Right Miss Walker, can you state your name for the records?"

"Uh sure, Kayla Walker."

"Right now. What were you doing out this early? Especially on a school night?"

Lie time. Please work.

"Well. I was doing homework until late last night. And decided that I needed a break and a walk always does me good. So I snuck out my window. I was walking for a while, and I must've lost track of time. Anyway, I was walking around a corner and I saw a woman being harassed by some thug. I thought that the right thing to do was to help take on the guy. She called you guys. You showed up, and now I'm here."

"Right. Did anyone else offer to help or see?"

"Not as far as I know. People only started to watch when you guys arrived."

"Ok"

I couldn't tell if he was believing me or not. He opened the manila folder, that sat on the table. I let a small breath of air escape my mouth. These questions weren't going to be as easy to answer. 

"Now. It's says here that your parents were murdered. Is this true?"

I signed, "Yes." 

"And your present guardians are Kristy and Rob Nelson?"

"Yes"

"Do they know that you are out?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"As I got older, we grew apart and I began to feel more like a burden. So now I leave the house early, get back later and take care of myself. It's like an unspoken agreement. I don't bother them, and they don't have to worry about me. I also still get to live under a free roof."

"What do you think made you grow apart?"

"I just got older, I guess? I wasn't the young little girl anymore."

He nodded. "Its says here that your parent's murder case remains unsolved. That's got to be harsh."

I blinked back the tears that had been forming. "I mean, it is. And everyone says that trying to move on is best. Well, I've lived with it for 10 years, you think I would have moved on by now. It's just hard to when your parent's murder is still out there." I started to play with my fingers again. 

"Alright well, you're free to go."

"Already?"

"Yeah, the victim told the same story. She was being robbed, you showed up and helped her out."

"Oh cool. Ok"

We walked out of the room. I signed some forms saying that I was free, without charge. I started to walk out when the Commissioner called me back.

"How about I give you a ride back? I'll drop you off a block away so that they won't notice."

I had a long walk ahead of me, and I was already really tired. God forbid that I would have to deal with another crook. 

"Heck. sure. Thanks"

We walked out the front and hopped into the car. Boy, had tonight been a long one.
