It was the day Sabine was supposed to pick Marinette up to take her back to Paris. It was the time she will see mamma and papa after so many months. She was happy. Why wouldn't she? But it never goes how it should be, does it?

Sabine came to pick her up, she and Marinette were roaming around the Gotham, showing her her favorite places. They were at a cafe, when there was smoke all over the cafe. She blacked out. She opened her eyes to see a man with green hair and a creepy smile. She didn't cry. She knew, she knew Ubaba will save them. She looked here and there but saw no-one. The Joker's lackey's flashed light at her face. She closed her eyes for a moment. The Joker started talking.

"So, Bruce Wayne. I have your little princess here. Come and take her place or else......" He took a knife and slid it on her arms causing a scratch to form, it hurted but didn't bleed.

They cut off the camera.

"Aren't you such a lovely girl. Let's see if your daddy dear cares enough to save you." He laughed.

She just stared at him. "It's rude to laugh at someone's pain."

He laughed,"Hahahahahahahahahha I like you. Maybe we will meet frequently in the future."

He went out the room, she was left alone in the darkness.

After some time, she felt her throat fill with something and everything went black. When she woke up, Sabine hugged her," You are ok!"

She was crying," What happened?"

She answered," Bruce took your place, Batman is nowhere to be found and Nightwing and Robin are trying to save Bruce."

She felt guilty.

After hours of torture, she was met with her dada, only because she was crying so hard to let her meet him, him doing the same just not crying.

She looked at him. He was sitting in an ambulance. He had a black eye and a split lip. He had several bruises on his body, his clothes were torn, he had some blood on his clothes. She hugged him immediately," Dada!"

She had several scratches on her arms and face but she was okay otherwise. They went home together. Her and Sabine decided to stay for another week.

When she was alone with him, she questioned," Dada, what happened?"

He hesitated," If I didn't go you would have been hurt and I don't want that now do I?"

Dick and Jason entered.

Dick told her," Don't worry cupcake. He was very powerful and it was only me and Jay there so we couldn't defeat him in enough time........"

Jason put a hand on her shoulder," It's okay pixie. People get hurt in this line of work."

"Then why are you in this line of work?"

The three of them shared a look.

"When I was 10, me and your grandparents went to see a movie-" She nodded,"You and Alfred?"

He shook his head. "No dear. Alfred is to me like your papa is to you. My real father and mother. We went through the an ally. A man with a gun came and shoot them. As you have seen. Haven't you?"

Yes Marinette had seen all type of crimes and haven't even flinched. Alfred was helping Bruce through a fight when Marinette came in and saw it. She felt fear, for the first time. It haunted her dreams. The only way to make her see past them was to make her used to them or make her forget them. Unfortunately, forgetting wasn't an option.

Marinette nodded. "Dick's parents were in a circus. You know the ropes that Dick swings on. A man cut the ropes. Jason lived on the streets for many years, where he could get killed anytime. His mother died. We want to give people some hope, so that they don't have to lose their family like we did."

She nodded. It was a lot for a kid and she didn't understand half of it.

"You will understand one day, You will."

"Now, enough of that seriousness. Do you want to draw on Bruce's bandages?" Dick gave Jason a funny look. He just shrugged. Bruce laughed. "Do it Marinette, it is too white."

"And boring" Marinette added.

They ended up watching movies. She slept with her mamma. Bruce recovered soon and batman was back on the streets. But he wasn't fast enough for Marinette to see Batman through the batcomputer, as she was already back at Paris........
