A Whole New World -- Chapter 2 part 1

The acrid smell of the sewers that announced the arrival of Killer Croc was suddenly gone. Professor Pyg was probably planning an escape at Blackgate by now, but not ready to fully enact the escape yet. Even Anarky was probably at home playing with his little chess set of prophecies at this moment. Still, as Tatsu wandered around aimlessly in search of the mysterious Green Lantern who had shown up at the manor a few hours before, she had to be extremely careful; Magpie, Lady Shiva, heck ANY villain who normally committed their worst crimes at night could spring at her,  clutching the terrified form of the Green Lantern with a gag in their hands, threatening her life and limbs unless she fought them. She scanned the skies for Man-Bat's shadowy figure hovering above her; nothing. She pointed her ears in the direction of Tobias Whale's booming laughter and his thugs pouring beer and scotch for their latest heist. All quiet. She felt the walls around her and keened her ears for the robotic voice of Cypher. He never arrived.This is quite odd, Katana thought, Ever since Aya, if that's actually her name, came along, every villain headed for the hills. Maybe I should ask Jason to explain to me what the hell is going on, the nerdy little man! A synthesized sob echoed from a corner alley. Katana spun her head around and there, huddling in the filthy corner of the alley, covered with rats and the faint odor of a stray dog, was Aya. "Good Ameterasu, Aya! You're OK!" Katana half shouted so as not to alert the villains lurking here, practicing her three fingered bow she found out she had to keep, and putting a hand to Aya's cheek, then lowered her voice and asked curiously "Why has no one  captured you yet?"  Aya heaved in a couple of sobs and Katana brushed her tears away and repeated her question in a soothing, almost motherly voice. "I-I don't know" Aya stammered after a few moments. "Probably because I am an A.I. and can be of little to no use to them. It may also be due to the fact that I was able to evade any assaults they came up with. Either way, I-I am n-not welcome here."
"Why? Because Bruce scared you out of your wits and you thought our commissioner or his daughter would not take you in?" Katana asked, seemingly reading Aya's thoughts. Aya nodded, half surprised at the question.
"Look, Aya," Katana soothed, taking her hand in hers, "I know this place is scary enough with all these villains running around here. But to be afraid of a billionaire who may have some emotional issues? That's just silly. You have to fully understand his little mood swings in order to fully understand him." As she was saying this, a stray cat who had been overhearing the conversation meowed hungrily and hurried over to the duo. Aya nodded, understanding her words. "If he has emotional issues as you have said, then I have nothing to fear," she told Katana.  Katana offered her her hand and Aya stood up, but not before hearing a soft slinkt from right behind Tatsu. The two new friends spun around, and there was Magpie, grinning ear to ear evilly. "Shiny,shiny, Miss Katana. Is this your new pet? Came all this way to get it back? Well, to me, that shiny, shiny robot may be competition for Mr Bats affections. So what's it going to be, runt?"
