As she is enjoying the night by letting loose and lots of pictures with the digital camera, the club breaks out into chaos as gun shots ring out (is that surprising for Gotham City?). As she makes her way out of the club, she finds herself facing a couple of criminals in a dark alley. Along with the city's hot topic Red Hood! What could go wrong? Read to find out.....
