"... dammit guys! We were supposed to catch the cat ,not the bat!" A young girl said with a sigh. "Eeeh... eeh. We're sorry ." One of the guys dressed in all black with a hood over their face said to the blacked dressed woman with long and beautiful brown hair. "It's fine boys, the cat will come eventually." She responded as she looked down on the unconscious Batman. "We take him back to dad, he'll know what to do." The woman continued as two of the men started dragging Batman over the cold and green floor.
"Didn't think it'll be that easy did you?" Batman asked as he did a backflip up from the floor to them kick down the two men that were dragging him, "guys... take him!" The young woman said as she pointed towards Batman. The two men were running fast towards Batman. One of the guys took out a small knife and raised it towards Batman. The same moment he did he got shot in the hand by the young woman. "No no. Don't kill him" She later said. The man that got shot was shocked by the injured he got and didn't see Batman's leg hitting him in the neck which made him fall down to the now bloody floor. The other man came from behind but his small punch did nothing to Batman's back armor. When he was about to hit him again, this time with a large bat, Batman caught the bat in mid air and later delivered a quick knock out punch to the guy.
"Who are you?" Batman said with his dark and scary new voice through the batsuit. "Well... the best way to talk to a girl is NOT by making her feel uncomfortable, which your doing now. So I'll won't answer your question." The woman said as she tilted her head. "Then I'll beat it out of you!" Batman responded as he went into his battle position. "That's definitely not the proper way to talk to a girl." She responded with a smile as she took out her large and shining samurai sword. The black dressed girl came running towards Batman and swung her sword towards his legs. Batman crouched to be able to block the attack. The girl now raised her sword to deliver a blow toward the head. Batman stopped this attack by kicking her both legs, making her fall. The girl quickly rolled away and recovered from the attack, The girl took out a gun and started shouting toward Batman. She was able to shoot three shots before Batman took cover behind a large pillar. One of the shots however, hit Batman in his shoulder. The other two shots went wild. Batman now dropped a smoke bomb filling the entire corridor with smoke. This led Batman get away from the pillar and sneaking up behind the woman. Right when he was about to attack he got stabbed by the large sword. The sword hit his left thigh. "I'm not an easy fish to catch." The girl said as she turned around to face Batman somewhere in the smoke. "Yes, you are!" Batman said as he came in from above to later throw the woman inside the elevator that stood open. The not yet finished elevator started falling free. Luckily for the beautiful girl there were only two floors to fall. The elevator crashed into the bottom section of the clinic. According to the sign this floor was the lab. The girl slowly walked out of the elevator while holding her hand on a wound she's just got. "What the hell is this place?" She said quietly as she looked around a top of the art laboratory filled with glowing green chambers and all white walls. She could now hear Batman coming in fast by using the stairs. The girl turned around to have a clear view of the staircase and raise her sword with one hand while pressing her other toward the bleeding wound. She could now see Batman coming down the stairs and she started running towards him with the blade ready to attack. Batman could easily see this attack and jumped aside when the blade was about to hit him, He delivered a punch in the girls side. She, however, didn't give up. She now ignore the wound and took up her gun in that hand instead. She started shooting multiple shots towards Batman while blood came running down her belly and continued down her legs and ending on the black floor. There were now a large pool of blood on the floor. She was bleeding fast. She didn't care about the bleeding, she only cared about BATMAN. She continued to shoot and four of the shots hit Batman. Two in the same shoulder he already got a bullet in. One bullet hit his left hand while the last hit him right in the kidney on his right side. Batman was now dizzy and everything was looking blurry. He slowly walked toward the girl in black but for every step he took he got hit by another bullet. Each hit making him more and more close to dying. After another three shots hitting him, he fell down. He was now sitting, almost laying toward one of the desks. In one last desperate try to stop the young girl he threw a batarang. The batarang missed the girl by a mile but it did hit a button next to a large and gray metal door. The glowing red bottom turned green and the door was slowly opening. The girl in black didn't care about that however, she was slowly waking towards Batman with her sword ready to kill him. She didn't care what her father had in mind. She was going to kill him right here and now. When the girl was about five steps away from the Bat a large sound was heard. The girl turned around to face a cow... The girl raised her gun toward the brown and white cow and was ready to fire a few shots to kill him. That didn't happens however, the gun was out of ammo and before being able to prepare to use her sword the cow came running with full sped towards her. The black girl tried to jump aside but with her bleeding wound she wasn't able to. The cow ran right over her. Batman was now second away from passing out. Everything was blurry and he saw double of everything. He had seven bullets in his body. One hitting so bad that his kidney were completely destroyed. The bleeding damage was also very serious. Batman was bleeding very fast and the Batsuit could only do so much. Batman now looked up. Seeing the cow attacking the girl all over. The last thing Batman saw before being forced by his body to close his eyes was the young girl fleeing the building as fast as she could. Batman lost his hearing about ten seconds ago and couldn't hear what was happening and now neither see. Batman tried with all his force to look. Opening his eyes he saw the cow licking away all the blood on his face and cleaning Batman up. Then everything went black again. He could now feel someone taking off his cowl and chest armor. He tried looking again, but couldn't... He could however feel that his loving fiancé was there with him. The last thing Batman could feel was a soft kiss on his forehead. Then... everything went black.

"Bruce... please come back to me." Selina cried out as she looked at her upcoming husband laying unconscious on a hospital bed with hoses and cords connected to his body. "He's right kidney is completely destroyed by the bullet and because of that he will be needing a new one. That is however our smallest trouble now. Because of the punctured kidney there's has leaked out quite a lot of bacteria in his blood. That itself is can be deadly and that together with all the other wounds and damages is far worse. He's body isn't capable to take care of the bacteria's. We are doing everything we can but I'm afraid it won't be enough." One of the doctors said while another together with three nurses was staring to do a surgery on Bruce to take out the buckets in his shoulders. Selina wasn't able to respond to what the doctor had just told her. She just sat there in the small wooden chair next to her love of life laying on the metal bed while being operated in front of her. She just sat there while holding Bruce's left hand and crying. Right when the doctor pulled out one of the bullets from the right shoulder and blood was running out the door to the intensive care room opened. Walking in fast was Alfred. A few steps in he stopped when he saw his "son". He looked at him for a short moment then closed his eyes for a second and took a deep sigh. When he opened his eyes again he saw Selina looking at him with river of tears in her eyes. Alfred walked towards Selina and put a hand in her shoulder. The moment he did Selina was starting crying more. The thought about Alfred losing Bruce was to much for Selina. She put both her hand on her face and closed her eyes. She was blocking the sight but she could still hear. She heard a machine peeping. She didn't know what the machine wanted, but she soon found out when one of the doctors yelled out "NO HEARTBEAT!" Selina was crying more and more and refused to open her eyes. She could now however feel two arms surround her. Alfred gave her a warm and carrying hug. The exact same kind of hug he had given Bruce the night his parents was killed in front of him. "He'll be fine. I know Bruce. And I know that he won't leave his child as his parents did." Alfred said looking at Selina's belly. "How... how did you know... we are expecting?" Selina cried out. "A Good father knows everything about his son. And that he told me over a text before the incident" Alfred responded as he looked at Bruce that now had heartbeats again.

"We should be next to Bruce. Not sitting here and finding a simple murderer." Dick said as he spun around on the chair in the cold batcave. "Yes... I agree with you but Selina said we had to do this and there can only be two people at his side at the same time. And Selina WILL NOT leave him for a long while." Tiffany responded as she referred the samples from Red Hood to all sorts of databases. "So, what we got so far?" Dick asked as he looked at the large screen. "Nothing really... I'll run these samples through one last test. I'm referring the cloth we found through the church records. It will probably not match but with a little luck from God, it might." Tiffany answered as she looked up on the roof of the batcave. "In the meantime, we can talk about the elephant in the room... or should I say COW in the room?" Tiffany continued and looked to the other side of the batcave where a large COW was sleeping in a bed of hay. "What's to talk about?" Dick responded with a smile. "He's perfect, he is cute to look at, everyone feel better with a animal around AND... he saved Batman's life!" Grayson continued. "Yes. I can agree on those things... Well some of them. But it's a COW! We can't have a bloody farm down here." Tiffany said as she rolled her eyes. "We're keeping him, just look what he did to that girl attacking Batman, no ordinary cow would do anything like that. I think he can be a good asset to us, for real." Dick stated as he looked on the sleeping cow and smiled. "I think Bruce and Selina should have a word in this discussion but I'm the meantime I trust you. " Tiffany said. "But now, we gotta check the results from the test." Tiffany continued as she went back to the Batcomputer.
"No way! It's a match. The exact same cloth can be found inside a church in Bloodhaven." Tiffany said with a happy voice. "What's wrong?" She asked Dick after a moment. "You look completely pale." She continued. "That's... the church my parents had they funeral. I haven't been there since then..." Dick responded.

"HOW COULD YOU!!!" A dark and old voice screamed to the beautiful young girl that attacked Batman earlier. "You might have killed him. We still aren't sure he will survive. The entire operation is at risk curse of you!" The man continued. "Dad I already told you I'm sorry and you saw what he did to me. I MIGHT HAVD DIED! I rather kill him a thousand times then dying myself." The woman responded. "And I would kill him a million time rather then seeing you die once Talia. But you know as well as me that BATMAM DOSEN'T KILL! You would have survived." The green dressed man said to his daughter. "One of his old *freinds* is about to take a visit on Bruce and his beloved one right now. Hopefully the result will be better then when you did your part." Ra's Al Ghoul said to his daughter Talia Al Ghoul.

"...I'll leave for today honey. There will be great nurses and doctors during the night to. During the night you must sleep. There's a guest room ready for you. The nurses will get you if anything happens to him. I hope you will have a good night." The old but cunning nurse told Selina as her shift ended. "Thank you." Selina responded with a small sigh, she didn't want to leave Bruce. "I'll kill whoever did this to us... I'll make her suffer. I'll make her regret being born. And I'll make sure that everyone that loves her will watch her die. They will see her die in front of them. And they will regret attacking us. I WILL avenge you!" Selina whispered in Bruce's ear and finished the statement with a goodnight kiss on his chin. Right before she was about to leave for having some sleep the door suddenly opened. A very short moment after a familiar voice said this to Selma. "How is Bruce feeling." As the similar voice picked up a gun and pointed it towards her...
