Jerome burst through the front door, everyone was in the lounge room and he stormed past them and grabbed his shot gun, everyone's eyes went wide and they all jumped to their feet and ran to him "what the hell are you doing!?" Bab's asked and he sent her a glare that even made her feel scared "someone took my daughter.. and I'm going to kill them" he growled and loaded his gun, the girls faces were terrified and the men jumped into action and started loading their weapons "you need a plan first!" Bab's said trying to reason with him and he glared at her darkly "I have a plan.. shoot the mother fucker between the eyes and get my daughter back" "what, you're just gonna go and shoot up Gotham till you find who took her!?" Lucky asked worried "I already know who took her" he said loading a small hand gun.

Nyssa changed her clothes and someone stood at her doorway, she heard their footsteps and whipped around and her heart sunk "please.. please give me my baby back" they walked closer to her and gave her a sad look "I swear to you.. I didn't take your baby, but I know who did and I'm here to help" Nyssa thought it over but she was desperate to see her daughter again, she nodded her head and the person handed her a small gun "do you have any more weapons?" Nyssa smirked "we need to make a pit stop".

Jerome put the hand gun in his belt at the back of his pants and Bab's finally spoke out after not making any connections to who it could be "who?" suddenly the front door swung open "Talia fucking Al Ghul" they spat with venom "what are you doing here!?" Lucky asked and Jerome pointed his gun at them "you have three seconds!-" "Jerome stop! she's here to help" Nyssa walked into the house and he lowered his gun in shock "what are you doing out of the hospital!?" he asked running to her and she pushed him back slightly "the same as you.. I'm getting my daughter back.. and I'm going to kill my sister" she walked past him to the weapons armory where everyone just stared at her with worry and pity looks, she ignored them and loaded her weapons and picked up a crossbow.

She turned to her guest who everyone was eyeing cautiously "Tabitha.. it's time to be Stabby Tabby" Tabitha nodded and picked up a bunch of knives and inspected them, Jerome stood next to Nyssa and tapped her shoulder "Jerome.. I love you, but if you try and stop me from going-" "I was going to say I love you.. and stay safe" he placed a gun in her hand and kissed her forehead "let's go get our daughter back" he said and she nodded sternly, Nyssa continued to prepare herself when suddenly a pain shot through her head hand making her fall to her knees and scream out, Jerome ran to her but she couldn't hear him, the pain stopped and she looked around, she wasn't in Jeremiah's house anymore.

She was underground somewhere, she walked forward a little but heard a familiar cry, she ran through a door and saw Talia and her daughter, anger filled her entire body and she ran to them but she realized Talia had no idea she was there "I'm sorry your parents are who they are.. you deserve so much better, don't worry.. after tonight you'll never have to hear of them, it'll just be me and you-" Nyssa screamed out to her but she just kept talking to the baby, suddenly Nyssa was pulled out of the room and she shot her eyes open to see everyone standing around her, worry etched all over their faces and Jerome was next to her on the floor, she stood up quickly and ran to grab her weapons but Jerome grabbed her arm "where are you going?" "I'm getting her back.. Talia isn't going to kill her, she's going to keep her! and I know where she is" Jerome's eyes widened and he didn't even bother asking how she knew all that, he grabbed his weapons and eyed her "lead the way" she nodded and stormed out of the house.

Jerome, Nyssa, Tabitha and Jeremiah were all in the same car everyone else were behind them, Jerome called in some of his allies and they were on their way, they were given instructions to directly contact Oswald when they were close to follow their car, Jerome followed Nyssa's vision and went to every place they knew that was underground but every place was empty "what did the place look like!?" he asked getting frustrated "underground! it looked under the ground, there was dirt and rooms!" she said "that could be any fucking place!" "stop yelling at me! I'm just as worried as you are!" "wait.. under ground and rooms, could it be my old blown up bunker?" Jeremiah piped up and both parents snapped their heads to him "Jerome go!" Nyssa said and Jerome nodded.
