Gordon McKinley is a secret agent working for the New York police force, who is aging and is desiring an early retirement. He arranges to have an apprentice sent to him to teach his ways. When his new apprentice, Marina, arrives in his office a week later, he is shocked and outraged that she is a girl. He is scolded by his boss and the apprentice-provider for being sexist, and is forced to go along with it anyway. He trains her, bringing her along to all of his toughest missions, nearing death several times. But this new apprentice has powers and strength beyond even him, it is this skill and strength that saves their asses during these missions. Over time, Gordon becomes close to Marina, eventually not caring that she is a girl. One day, they meet up with the city's most hunted villian - The Joker. During a mission, The Joker teases Gordon for having a female apprentice, and kidnaps him, nearly killing him. Marina comes to rescue, and takes Gordon back to his appartment. Gordon goes off on Marina once more for being a girl, and finally she storms from his appartment and into the night. When he returns to work, his boss demands to know why it matters so much to Gordon that Marina is a girl. He gets a flashback, where we find out that his daughter was kidnapped and killed by some of the Joker's goons, and he couldn't do anything to save her. He says nothing, but we see this memory in his mind. Meanwhile, Marina is crouched in a deserted warehouse, fuming to herself about her master's arrogance. The Joker shows up, and sees her so angry. He feeds off of her anger, and offers her a chance to get revenge. Tired of being undermined by Gordon, she accepts, and her new life working for the Joker begins.

Thought of this a LONG time ago, upon first seeing 'The Dark Knight'. Might actually write this as a story and submit it to my school's literary magazine.

Here I will either showcase my boredom or I will get into deep thought about whatever. I like to rant about Harry Potter related things, so beware.
