"Kasety, calm down." Rachel told her daughter after they arrived in the elevator that would take them to the pent house. Kasety was practically bouncing with anticipation just to see her father once again. "He probably isn't home yet."
"I can't help it," Kasety replied. "I really miss him."
"I can see that," Rachel chuckled.
The familiar 'ding!' went off and the elevator doors opened slowly. Kasety didn't waste a second and ran out and searched the halls for Bruce. Rachel smiled lightly and wandered into the living room.
"May I help you Miss Dawes?" Alfred appeared from the kitchen.
Rachel turned around to face him and shook her head. "Sorry Alfred, I told Harvey that I would meet him here and to bring Kasety to Bruce." She explained. "I'm guessing that you haven't heard from him yet?"
"I'm afraid not, Miss Dawes." Alfred frowned.
"Alright, you were right!" Kasety called from the hall. "He's not here."
Rachel looked at Alfred. "She misses him so much…"
Kasety walked into the living room and found Alfred standing near her mother.
"ALFRED!" She ran towards him and hugged him. "I've missed you!"
"I as well, Miss Kasety." he answered. Kasety ignored that he used the word "Miss" in front of her name and realized how much she missed hearing that. "Can I get you anything?"
"No," she answered. "I'm okay. I think I'm just going to head to my room."

Kasety slowly entered the room that she hadn't seen in days. Everything was just as she'd left it, not one thing out of place. She looked over at the long desk that held her laptop and home work assignments that she never finished. One thing caught her eye, her cell phone. She reached for the iphone and entered the pass code. She noticed that she had six missed calls, two voice mails, and seven texts. She ignored the messages and the calls, knowing that they were all from Derek and Lucy wondering if she had some how had her phone with her the whole time.
'DEREK!' she thought. She quickly searched through the contacts for his name. Once she found it, she dialed it immediately.
Ring… Ring… Ring…
"Hey this is Derek, I can't-" the voicemail said right before she hung up.
She sighed. 'Why isn't he answering his phone?'
Kasety was soon pulled out of her thoughts from a soft knock on the door. She turned around to see her father standing by the door.
"Dad!" She had shouted before pulling him into a bear hug.
Bruce happily returned the hug. "Kasety, I'm so sorry for not keeping you safe. I was sure that they weren't going to find you there… and I was wrong. I will never EVER let them take you again."
Kasety nodded, but didn't let go.
"I was so scared that I wouldn't get away," she spoke softly. "and that I wouldn't ever see you or mom ever again…"
"It's alright, your safe." Bruce said. "I wont let this happen again."
The two stayed quiet again until Bruce finally pulled away from her death grip and held her at arms length to look at her.
"He didn't hurt you did he?" He asked quietly.
"Well…" she hesitated. "he pulled me by my hair a lot and threw me into a wall…"
Bruce became very angry at this, but he tried not to show too much of it.
"You should get some rest," he said, turning to leave.
Kasety didn't argue, she was beginning to feel a little tired, even when she had only woken up only an hour ago.
She hopped into her bed and covered herself with the soft pink comforter. She closed her eyes and fell into a blissful sleep.

"Harvey how could you be so sure?" Rachel asked Harvey on the phone. "And you know this how…?"
Rachel sighed. "Alright, I have to go. Yes, I love you too. Bye."
She hung the phone up and stared out the window that was now repaired, the one The Joker tossed her out of.
She heard foot steps not far from her and already knew who it was. It was Bruce. Turning around to face him, Rachel gave him a serious look.
"Harvey said the Batman was going to turn himself in." She told him.
Bruce sighed. "I have no choice, Rachel,"
"You honestly think that's going to keep the Joker from killing people or even take Kasety again?"
"Maybe not, but I have enough blood on my hands and I see know what I would have to become to stop men like him." Bruce replied. "When you once told me if the day came that I was finished we could be together."
"Please don't make me your one hope for a normal life." Said Rachel, crossing her arms.
"But did you mean it?" Bruce asked with hope in his voice.
"Well, yes…" Rachel said. Before she knew it, Bruce's lips crushed hers. She, without a problem, returned the kiss thoughtfully.
Afterwards, they shared a quick glance at each other then without a word, Bruce turned to leave. Before he was out of the room, Rachel spoke.
"Bruce," she said and he turned around. "If you turn yourself in., they're not going to let us see each other. Or let you near Kasety."
Bruce thought about it but continued to walk.
