Being the son of Batman comes with millions of sacrafice and troubles. You might think that fighting Bane, Joker, and millions of other criminals would be the biggest trouble,or maybe the strenuous training and long lectures from Batman.
For Damian Wayne, the hardest struggle, was holding back, especially against bullies.
Damian didn't know why, but Samuel Heed had targeted Damian from the start of this week. Samuel normally bothered other kids but decided he would try his hand at bugging Damian.
Damian had wanted to punch the boy as soon as Samuel had smacked the lunch tray out of Damian's hand on Monday. But he then remembered what his father had told him and he graciously held back. Samuel was cutting it close though when he dumped the contents of Damian's bag on the floor, called Damian "daddy's money", made fun of the animal hairs on Damian's clothes, attempted to trip him in the hall, and during gym hid Damian's normal clothes in the trash.
On friday Damian was ready to commit a murder. He left school and headed home.
As always, Titan and Titus met him at the door, tails wagging, tongues out, and excited but surpressed barks.
Damian felt the hatred drain out of him as he greeted his animals happily.
"Hey, how was school?" Bruce asked when Damian entered the kitchen for a snack.
Damian withered a little inside at the mention of school. He turned his back to his father and opened the fridge door.
"Can I take Titan and Titus on a walk?" Damian asked, avoiding the question.
Bruce nodded "I suppose so, get back before patrol though."
Damian closed the fridge door and nodded before heading out.
"Where are we going?" Titan asked as Damian changed his clothes and grabbed the leashes.
"Please say park!" Titus exclaimed as Damian put their leashes on and walked out.
Damian walked them down the driveway and all the way to the dog park which was surprisingly close.
The park had benches that had all sorts of graffiti on them and a walking path that headed into the park's small forest.
Damian closed his eyes and inhaled deeply before he decided to confide in his dog's.
"Titan, Titus, I believe I'm being bullied." Damian rolled his eyes at the sky "It's completely impudent but I tree getting on my nerves and even bothering me after school. I would fight him but Father says I shouldn't." He sighed and looked at Titan "So if you ever feel like you are being bothered, you hav emy full permission to tear their faces off."
Titan narrowed his eyes at a tree "Is that squirrel looking at me funny?"
Titus looked over and made a light growl noise "It's definitely challenging you!"
Damian looked at his dogs then decided to let them off their leashes to which they ran off to the tree.
The squirrel bolted up the tree and Titan and Titus barked at it.
"Get back down here you stupid rodent!" Titan barked.
Damian walked further ahead then heard a few voices behind him. He turned and who should he see but Samuel Heed, and his goons.
Damian wanted to either kill Samuel or put him through an embarrassing and painful experience that he would be telling his future grandchildren. He still hadn't decided yet.
"Hey Damian" Samuel drug out his name with a smirk.
Damian glared at him "What do you want?"
Samuel sneered and crossed his arms "Just wnated to have a conversation about you and your grades. You seem to be a favorite among our teachers. What are you now? Teachers pet?!"
His friends laughed and pointed out that Damian had dog fur on his sweater.
Damian cocked his head to the side "Jealous that you're too dense to be anyone's favorite, Heed?"
Samuel stopped laughing and grit his teeth. "What did you say to me, Daddy's money?" He hissed.
"Do you have a problem hearing now too?" Damian snapped back.
Samuel growled "You're gonna regret that short stop!"
Titan looked up when he noticed that Damian was talking to someone.
Titan's tail wag was slowing down as he heard the tone and saw Damian's tight posture.
"Titus" Titan called as the hairs on his back rose.
Titus walked over "I know" He growled. "And I don't like it."
"You think just because your dad is rich that you can walk around thinking you own the world?!" Samuel growled as he walked over to Damian.
"I want to bite him" Titan snarled.
"We don't bite" Titus said but he didn't sound half as convinced as he did yesterday.
"You think you're great" Samuel scoffed before shoving Damian hard "But you're not!"
"Forget it" Titus and Titan excalimed before running over, barking furiously.
Titus jumped up and bit Samuel while Titan nipped at his friend's ankles.
Samuel screamed before the dogs took their places in front of Damian with threatening growls while showing off their sharp teeth.
Damian was slightly surprised by their actions but then glared at Samuel and said "If you don't get the heck away from me I'll have them rip your throats out!"
Samuel held his arm and whimpered before Titan snapped at him again. Samueland his goons stumbled back but Titan thought they were taking to long and barked then ran after them.
They screamed and started to run while Titan chased them a little before stopping and huffing at them.
He trotted back to Damian who smiled down at them "Good boys!" He said proudly as he patted the animals heads.
Their tails wagged and they kicked his hand.
"You get a treat when we get home." Damian congratulated before they continued their walk.
Later when Damian was back at school and when he saw Samuel in the hall all he did was glare at him before Samuel quickly scurried away like a coward.
And when Samuel's mom called Bruce the call was redirected to Jason who was on patrol but answered saying "Well maybe if your brat wasn't such a cowardly bully he wouldn't have gotten bit in the butt! If you ask me he had it coming to him." he then hung up and shot a criminal in the leg.
Titan and Titus had no idea what they did right but Damian gave them extra pats and proud compliments for a while after that.
