"Tell the big man I said hi" He grinned and placed his hoodie over his head-

I woke up at three in the morning with sweat dripping from my neck to my back. I glanced around my room breathing heavily. I just had a crazy dream about the joker, that same dream keeps recurring since 5 days ago when I got mad at Bruce. The more I researched Jason Todd the more Joker showed up. Yesterday I had gone to see Barbra Gorden turned out she couldn't walk, still. It was because of the Joker.
The only really close part to the Joker rooming in the streets is his girlfriend Harley or his clan that worships him.
I sat up and grabbed my cup of water sitting next to my bed at took a drink out of it. I placed it down and went back to sleep

"Two guys live in an insane asylum. And one night, one night they decide they don't like living in an asylum anymore. They decide they're going to escape! So, like, they get up onto the roof, and there, just across this narrow gap, they see the rooftops of the town, stretching away in the moonlight... stretching away to freedom. Now, the first guy, he jumps right across with no problem. But his friend, his friend did not dare make the leap. Y'see... Y'see, he's afraid of falling. So then, the first guy has an idea... He says 'Hey! I have my flashlight with me! I'll shine it across the gap between the buildings. You can walk along the beam and join me!' B-but the second guy just shakes his head. He suh-says... He says 'Wh-what do you think I am? Crazy? You'd turn it off when I was halfway across"
Laughing echoed my dream as I heard a snap of a bone and darkness.

I woke up to my alarm beeping. I groaned loud as I rolled over and sat up. My time currently was 5:30 am. That's the time where I always wake up at since I was a young delicate.
I pulled on a black shirt with a V neck and some Jean shorts with it. I brushed my hair using hair gel and rushed downstairs for no reason at all. Usually, father would be up by now pondering about his business and how good his coffee was. He wasn't in sight at all which made me grunt. Alfred's shift doesn't start till 7:30. So I'm guessing everyone in the household is asleep.
I opened the fridge and there were some salad and butter plus a thing of sour cream. Father always stated whatever money can buy we can get but if you were a millionaire would you only get a salad, butter and sour cream! How does Alfred even get his supplies for his food, he probably has some secret fridge.
I didn't bother eating that morning so I just waited till Alfred would awaken at 7:30. In the meantime I was gonna enjoy one of my favourite novels of Charles Dickens called Oliver, it's such a classic.
I started to walk towards the mini library area or whatnot. And picked up my book, I was ready to relax and read till 7:30 until I heard the door open and shut. Guessing Father was never in bed.
I placed down my book and silently walked to the scene to see Father with an emotionless face while carrying himself up to his room without him taking a glance at me. I immediately thought I had something to do with me.
"Is something wrong?" I asked while in a curious tone. He stopped what he was doing and looked down "I don't want you to leave this building until I said it's safe-"
"What did I do this time?" I crossed my arms and narrowed my eyebrows together.
"Someone took Dick while he was out on duty- just don't worry about it okay? How about this I go get some food, pick it up and come back and eat-"
"Father, what happened? You can tell me" I placed my hand on his shoulder well, kinda because I can't reach it. He sighed and turned around to face me. "You know what I'm batman.., I can solve it"
