When Saphirres Meet Emeralds

Chapter four

When we arrived at the Manor, I was in complete and utter awe. From the many floors, to the grand staircase in the front. From the gates to the small gardens in the front. A man, with a strangely calming presence, stood in the front. "Hello Alfred" "Hello Master Dick" "Alfred, I would like you to meet Beatrice Snow, and her brother Chris Carter." Chris and I politely said hello. We went inside the majestic house with Grayson leading the way. We arrived at a room with an old clock. Grayson set the time, and the wall opened to some stairs. I lifted my eyebrows in surprise. I was walking in front of Wayne, and behind Chris and Grayson. The stairs were all but wide. We walked into some sort of cave, decked out with the latest tech, and tech that has yet to come out. We walked over to a man I couldn't identify, since he was facing a big computer. He turned to us with a clam look on his face. He was Bruce Wayne, but he had Batman's suit on. Bruce Wayne and Batman are the same person. That makes sense. All his sons are vigilantes. They aren't allies. They are family.

"I heard something happened with you, Ms. Snow. Will you explain it to me?" "Sure. But I will need answers as well. Now that I know Damian is Robin and you are Batman, the rest of your kids are vigilantes or heroes, which would mean there was several Robins. Huh. Never mind. Seems I have already figured it out" I smiled sweetly at the shocked look on his face, as well as the rest. "Yes, all of that was true. How could you figure that out?" "Simple. It is more practical that you adopted them and considered them your kids. You probably found out they had great fighting skills, good reflexes or both, and you trained them. Perfect rich family on the outside, superheroes on the inside. It's quite astonishing that no one figured it out yet." I nonchalantly stated and shrugged. "But here's what happened. I found out I had superspeed. I never knew my dad, so it is possible I had that from him. I also have Ice powers from my mom by the way. I don't think I need to tell you more about my mom, since you have a file on me. I am untrained, and I have never gone out of control. And if you call me Elsa or some sh!t I will let it go. Thanks." He seemed surprised, while Grayson tried to muffle a laugh, Wayne had a small smile on his face, and Chris just looked at me annoyed. "Sure. But I will need some DNA from you, so I can figure out who your dad is." "I think you can start by trying me to match with Barry Allen AKA the Flash, but you already knew that. It would make sense if my parents hooked up at some point since they know each other and see one another every day. Maybe I was a mistake. Scratch that. I was a mistake."

Everyone suddenly looked at me sadly. I did not know why. "Why are you looking at me like that?" "Bea-Bear, you are not a mistake." Chris said with sympathy in his voice. "What are you talking about? I didn't say I am a mistake. I said I was a mistake. I'm - I don't know what I am now, but It doesn't matter." I was getting kind of pissed. Not kind of. Just pissed.

I looked to Bruce an asked: "What type of DNA do you prefer?" "blood would do fine." "Well what are we waiting for? Lead the way."

As we walked Wayne leaned over to me and whispered: "Are you afraid of needles Snow? You're tense." "No, it was just an extremely uncomfortable conversation we were just having." I whispered back. "Well, you are very brave, Snow. I will give you that. And threatening Batman? Do you have a death wish?" "Batman has a no-kill policy I assume. Or else Joker would be dead." I retorted, while Wayne simply looked at me with wide eyes.

We arrived over at a corner with a medical bed, and a medicin cabinet twice the size of a normal closet. Mr. Wayne took out a needle and a bunch of other stuff I don't know the name of. He swiftly injected the syringe n my arm, and he swiftly drew blood. Afterwards he put on a band-aid. Suddenly Alfred came in: "Dinner is ready, Master Bruce." "Thank you, Alfred." He the turned to Chris and I, "Would you care to join us?" Before I could get a word out, Chris stepped in: "We would love that, thanks." I gave him a death strare for not consulting with me before answering on MY behalf.

As we walked upstairs to join the others, I felt a little overwhelmed. Now discovering another superpower, finding out who my dad is, and figuring out who both Batman and Robin are. I felt it was all going a little fast. We arrived at the grand dining room, with 2 other boys who look older that Wayne, but younger than Grayson. We all sat down before Bruce had to anwer a call, and Alfed went to the kitchen to make more food. "Jason and Tim, meet Beatrice Snow." Grayson introduced me to the two guys. It seems that he is the one with the best social skills. "Hello, my name is Timothy Drake, but you can call me Tim." "Hello, Tim. Grayson already introduced me, therefore I don't need to. My question is: How do you know Chris?" "Dick and Chris are great friends, and therefore he has been more around than what you might think." He said sourly, but I guess it was just his voice. I shrugged, not caring if it was his real voice or not. Tim looked at me like I expected to make a scene. When he realized I wasn't going to do that he said honestly: "I think we're going to get along just fine." I rolled my eyes. "Hey Beautiful, I'm Jason Todd. I think we're going to get along more than just fine." He flirted. "TT - I doubt that. How old are you anyways?" I retorted. He looked surprised and looked at Damian and then back at me. "I'm 21. I can legally buy you a drink. Not that the law could stop me." He winked. "Dude. I'm 14. I recently found out that Wayne is just a couple moths older than me." Jason looked stunned. He chuckled looked to Wayne. "Good luck with that one, Demon. You have so much in common, just date her." He got pink ears, not that I was any better. I felt myself blush. Jason widened his eyes, realizing what he just started. Grayson smirked, and did not seem surprised of how that entire scene played out.
