~A few weeks passed by~

I was living in the Wayne mansion and moving my things out of my apartment while that was happening; there was a funeral for my mother, and of course, I attended but a safe distance. I knew that if I were closer to my mother's tombstone, my father would've killed me on the spot; it's not that I'm scared of him or anything, but it's more about letting people mourn her death in peace than worrying about pulling two people apart at her funeral.

Bruce attended the funeral with me so I wouldn't be alone, and he also missed her; he told me some stories about my mother that cheered me up from being sad. After attending the funeral and taking a break from "work, " I started training with Bruce and using my abilities in combat training which I was a little rusty but not really.

I noticed that dick and Jason were always following me or around me for some reason; I found it very strange and creepy, but what I can do right. I was in the kitchen with Alfred, helping him with lunch and preparing the table. When I felt something coming towards me and turned around, a knife came towards me, stopping it with force coming from my hand.

I sighed and said, "Really? A knife to scare me or something? What child's play".

I turn my hand and the knife with it, then flicking it in the same direction it came in but way faster and hitting something, not someone. I returned to my task and finished setting up the table for Alfred. Then he called dick, Jason, and Bruce for lunch. I sat at the table and waited for the boys to come, then Bruce sat right next to me, and the other two came in, but one had a slit on their eyebrows. I grinned a little bit, and not long after, Alfred served his delicious lunch as always; we were all silent until Bruce spoke up because it was quiet at that table.

Bruce said, "Dick, What happened to your eyebrow?".

I chuckled, and Dick looked at me with a stern look on his face.

Dick said, "Well, I was going knife training with Jason, and the knife slipped then cut a bit of my eyebrow."

Jason also spoke to cover their asses from feeling the wrath of Bruce Wayne.

Jason said, "Yeah, one of my knives slipped out and accidentally hit dick's eyebrow."

Bruce looked at both of them and then at me to see if they were telling the truth.

I said, "Don't look at me, but if they were really knife training and including throwing them at their target, then I would say that if their aim were a little off from their target, then it would've hurt other people in the scene if it was a real setting but when did you two start knife training ?".

I looked right at them and then at Bruce, who made his conclusion about the situation.

Bruce said, "If any of you both hurt her in any shape or form, then I will personally take you off the team and take cases with me. Am I clear." he said with a firm voice.

Both Jason and dick were baffled by this, but Jason was more furious with Bruce

Jason said, "Why in the hell are you protecting her when you don't even know her."

I was silent because I didn't want to instigate a fight with them or Jason.

Bruce said," I knew her longer than the both of you before I took dick under my wing, so I stand by word, alright".he looked intensely at Jason, and Jason looked a glance at me

Jason said furiously," So technically, she is your daughter somehow? Which doesn't make any sense because doesn't she have a family to go to, Bruce? Dick agrees with me that she doesn't belong here, and having powers doesn't mean she can defeat us; I bet without her powers, she couldn't beat me at all." pointing at me and looking at me.
