Wally's Pov

"Batman, do we have any missions?" Nightwing asks. I look at Batman for answers to Nightwing's question. " Yes, the team is going to protect the Wayne family." Batman explains it to us. Artemis groans as Batman responds. "Why do we need to protect the Wayne family, Batman." Aqualad asks. Nightwing and Red Robin look concerned about the mission. " Wayne's family has been attacked by the Joker and many other villains." Batman explained the situation. I was shocked that we were protecting the Wayne family. " Nightwing, Red Robin, and Robin will not be joining you on this mission." Batman says. Me and the others were confused about why they wouldn't be on this mission. " Why are they not joining us on this mission, Batman?" Aqualad asked Batman. " They are going on a mission with me." Batman replies to Aqualad.

At Wayne Manor

Tim's Pov

I was sitting on the couch next to Jason and Damian. I was so nervous about tomorrow, and Dick was sitting on the recliner. " What's wrong, Tim? You look nervous. Are you okay?" Jason asks me " No, I am so nervous about tomorrow because I won't be Red Robin but Tim Drake. Also, what if they find out our identity or secrets?" I responded to Jason's question. " Hey Tim, calm down; we will be careful, and we have a charity gala in a few days." Damian says it with a glare in his face. " Let's go get some sleep, speciality you, Tim. You haven't slept in three days." Dick says he's heading to Bruce's office.

With Bruce and Dick

Bruce's Pov

After the meeting I had with the young justice team about protecting my kids, I was now in my office at the manor when I heard a knock at the door. "Come in." I tell the person at the door. Dick walks in with a concerned look on his face. "What's wrong, Dick?" I ask because now I am concerned. "Well, Tim is nervous about tomorrow. He's been working tirelessly on the gala and hasn't been able to catch a break. He's worried that he might not be prepared enough for the Charity Gala." Dick explains, his voice filled with genuine concern. "I think it would be a good idea if we sat down with him and went over everything one more time, just to ease his nerves and boost his confidence. " I will go talk to Tim in the morning, but you need to get some sleep as well. " Also, Damian tried to reassure Tim about tomorrow but Tim is very nervous about it." Dick tells me.

The Next Day

Tim's Pov

I was up before the sun even rose, my mind racing with anxiety. I couldn't shake off the feeling of failing and the fear of exposing us to the team. As I was making myself a cup of coffee , Damian approached me with a comforting smile, reminding me that we had gone over everything thoroughly the night before. However, despite his efforts, my nerves were still getting the best of me. Then Dick walks in the room, noticing my tense behavior. He walks over and places a comforting hand on my shoulder, offering words of encouragement. His warmth instantly calms me down, reminding me that I have a support system to rely on during this difficult event. Dick, sensing my unease. He sits down next to me and offers some words of encouragement, reminding me that everyone gets nervous before big events and that it's completely normal. His reassurance helps to ease my anxiety, allowing me to focus on the problem at hand and regain my confidence. " Damian, can you go grab Jason because the team will be here in an hour?" Dick asks him. Damian nods and quickly heads out of the room to find Jason. As I watch Damian leave, I feel happy for my brothers brotherly bond and their effort to support me and each other. It's moments like these that remind me of the strength we have as a family, and it gives me a fresh sense of strength to face future trouble together.

Jason's Pov

I heard a knock on my door, and I knew it was Damian. Opening the door, I see him standing there with a determined look on his face. "Dick sent me to get you," he says, his voice filled with urgency. I grab my gear and follow Damian back to the room, ready to join my brothers and face whatever challenges lie ahead. We arrived in the kitchen, and there was Dick hugging Tim trying to calm him down. " What's wrong, Dick, and why is Tim having a panic attack ?" I ask, concern filling my voice. "

It's because the team is arriving soon, and it triggered a panic attack for Tim," Dick explains, his eyes filled with worry. "He's been feeling overwhelmed and anxious about their arrival, and it just became too much for him." I nod understandingly, realizing the pressure Tim must be under. "We'll support him through this," I assure Dick, determined to help my brother overcome his fears. I call Alfred to the kitchen and make some tea for Tim , hoping that it will help him calm down. As I bring the warm cup of tea to Tim, I remind him that he is not alone and that we are here for him every step of the way. " Master Tim, remember that we are to support you and help when you need it." Alfred tells Tim. Tim looks up at Alfred, gratitude evident in his eyes. "Thank you, Alfred," he says softly. "I appreciate all of your support." Alfred smiles warmly and places a comforting hand on Tim's shoulder. "You're family, Master Tim," he replies. "We'll always be here for you, no matter what." Dick says with a reassuring smile. "You can count on us to have your back, Tim," he adds. Tim's eyes well up with tears as he realizes the true meaning of family and the unwavering support he has from those around him.
