Bio!Dad Bruce

Chapter 11

Fairly certain the next chapter will be the gala. Like thirty percent sure...

I.O.N.

Enjoy!

Jason barged into Marinette's room after dinner to talk with her. "I want to know what you're planning and how I can help."

Marinette stared at him from where she was seated at her sewing desk, "And what makes you think I'm planning anything?" Jason snorted and flopped on her bed.

"Don't try and play coy with me Pixie. You've been around long enough for me to know your plotting face." He leaned forwards, "Is it something to do with Bruce making you go back to school? Is that why you didn't fight him on it? Are you going to try and kill your classmates?"

Marinette made a face, "Despite what Bruce apparently thinks, I have no problem with returning to school, as for whoever my classmates are, I have no reason to hate them or try to kill them. I am curious to know why he believes I will?"

Jason laughed, "Demon Spawn tried to weasel out of school when he first got here. Threatened bodily harm to the other students."

"He was ten correct?"

"Yeah."

"Do you know any ten-year-old that wants to go to school? I would hope that I can handle things better than a ten-year-old."

"Point. So what are you plotting?"

Marinette allowed herself a vindictive smile, "I am planning something for the gala."

Jason leaned forward even further, "Oh? Do tell."

"I saw the guestlist for the gala and there were two names in particular that stood out to me, as I had had some very negative experiences with them for a very long time."

"So what's your plan?"

"I won't spoil it. But if you could have my back if someone accuses me of stealing jewelry that'd be great."

"I can do that. But for the record, are you planning on stealing jewelry?"

"No."

"Why would someone accuse you then?"

"Because they'll think I stole it a while ago."

"Did you?"

"Is it really stealing if it didn't belong to them in the first place?"

"Bruce and Dick would have me say yes. So to be contrary and spite them: No. No, it does not."

Marinette gave him the biggest and brightest smile he'd ever seen from someone not named Richard Grayson. "I knew there was a reason I liked you!"

Damian waited a few days before approaching his sister. Whatever she was planning was going to be chaotic and extreme, and he wanted to help. Since becoming Robin, he hadn't had much chance to cause chaos, and while he would never trade being Robin being able to help with what would hopefully be a wonderful evening of surprises at the gala would certainly lift his mood.

Marinette was once again in the garden, enjoying what meager sunlight she could get from Gotham. "Did you need something Damian?"

He would always wonder how she knew he was there, Damian was sure he never made a sound. "I was curious to know if you needed help from the other half of the 'Unwanted Blood Children Club'?"

She turned to smile at him. A smile that only a blood child of Bruce Wayne could pull off, and said, "The more the merrier."

And proceeded to fill Damian in on her entire plan. He had to admit, even if he didn't understand why what she was planning sounded like a lot of fun.

Jason and Damian are in on Marinette's plan!

There is still time to comment about who you most want to see there! I've seen a lot of Chloe, Kagami, Adrien, and Luka for the friends/not totally evil. And Lila and Gabriel for the Fiends. I will say this now, Marinette's parents will not be making an appearance. I just don't feel I could write them convincingly.

Comment what you thought!

Hope you enjoyed!

See ya next time!
