Kate's POV

    There I was. I laid down on my bed staring up at the white ceiling above me, thinking about how I was going to handle this whole situation. I can't bring anyone else into this, because of the ones I have lost along the way. I know Becca really wanted to help, and she is capable to. But for her sake. I must do this on my own. A faint buzzing sound came from my dark brown nightstand. I looked over and picked up my phone to see yet another text from a unknown number. Britney is who i assumed it to be.

Unknown: Meet me in the alley

That's it? Meet me in the alley. Sure that's not suspicious at all! And I don't even know what time I need to be there. My phone buzzed once again, in my hand, and I looked down to read another message.

Unknown: at 10:30

    I sighed and threw my phone onto a pile of my clothes and threw myself onto my bed. I really didn't want to do this. Why can't I just kill Britney off, like she was never here in the first place. Something inside of me was holding me back. Bruce, Dick, Jason, Tim, and now Damian. I'm not like my mother or my father. I don't betray the ones I love, and I don't kill. I cant be a criminal again. Even if I tried. Ever since I met Damian, my life has changed. He's shown me that there's more to life, that just robbing museums, or just going out to kill. I need to figure out a way to win the fight against Britney.

~~--Time Skip--~~

    I slipped out my bedroom window and started to walk to the alley. I slowly turned a corner to see Britney standing there in a black leather coat with tinted sunglasses on.

"It's almost 11 o'clock at night. I'm pretty sure you don't need sunglasses." I furrowed my brows scanning what she is wearing.

"Well people can't know that I've been here! Especially with you" She laughed.

"Look what do yooooou" I slowed down my words due to footsteps being heard come from behind me.

    Britney seemed to notice too, but she kinda just stood there. Waiting for something to happen. I stood there, waiting for the right moment to strike. I felt the person's presence only a few feet behind me. I quickly swung my leg around as hard as I could, hoping to hit whoever was there. But to my complete surprise it was Damian. Turns out He was in his robin costume, his hood up and almost concealing his face. He caught my leg with his left hand, the gently let go of it. He looks at me somewhat happy, the looks up slightly to see Britney also standing there. His smile faded.

"What are you doing here with Kyle!"

"Why don't you ask her for an answer!" She smiled.

    Damian then looked back down at me. Looking for the answer. Probably wanting me to explain whatever was going on between us. I backed up and covered my mouth, hopefully preventing me from speaking. Then you could hear Britney's laughter.

"What did you do to Kyle!" He demanded.

"Oh nothing, she just is choosing not to talk to you, but that gives us more time to catch up!" She smiled walking towards him.

Damian backed up a bit. But Britney kept inching her way closer and closer to him. Almost tackle hugging him.

" Get Away from him!" I yell at Britney, I picked up a small pebble from near my leg and threw it it her. It hit her back but probably not hard enough to hurt her.

Damian looked at me with shock, and Britney turned around, and basically glared daggers at me.

"I can do whatever I want!" She whined.

"Well, Well, So can I!" I barked back.

"Why don't you talk to this young man over here!" She evilly smiled gesturing towards Damian.

    My lip started quivering. I was confident I wanted to do it. But Nothing came out. It's almost like I forgot how to speak. I then slowly got up and ran away. Hiding myself with in the darkness. I sat down in a corner. hearing Damian repetitively calling my name. But I didn't do anything, not like I could have anyway. I'm scared. I admit it..I'm scared, I'm scared of being left alone, and what Britney could do. One wrong move from me, and Damian could be dead again.
