The Son of Death in Gotham(A Nico Di Angelo Fan Fic)

16) Found Out

After Damian left, Nico laid down in the bed, keeping Biana as close to him as he could. He was still slightly in shock.

He heard a knock on the door and called to whoever was out there that they could come in. He was expecting it to be Damian, or maybe even Jason. But he definitely wasn't expecting Bruce to walk in.

He sat up, moving the cat to his lap, "Is everything okay?"

Bruce nodded, "There were just some complications with getting the adoption through. We were able to get the majority of the legalities done, but your medical records are a problem."

"What's wrong with it?"

"It's none existent, except for the hospital stay from when I found you, you literally have nothing in the records."

"Oh," Nico laughed internally, "That's probably because I was born in the 1920's."

Bruce just stared at him for a moment before what he heard settled in.

"How old are you again?" He asked, making Nico smile.

"I am 14 and 84."

Bruce just blinked, probably doing his best to keep a straight face, but Nico could see the subtle shock and confusion in his eyes.

"So  can you get us a copy of your medical records any time soon?" He asked with a surprisingly calm voice.

Nico nodded, he could probably ask either Will, or if that didn't work Hades or Apollo.

Bruce smiled and got up to leave, but stopped at the last moment.

"I forgot to ask this before, but Damian talked to me about your cat. Would you be okay with leaving it home when you have to go to school or do you need me to file for her to be made an emotional support animal?"

Nico looked up at him in surprise. He wasn't thinking about having to leave her home. He'd truthfully forgotten about school. But he also didn't want to create more work for Bruce, who was already doing so much for him.

"I would appreciate that, but it really isn't important. I know you're running a company, don't make me a priority."

Bruce just smiled at him and left.

So Nico stayed in his bed, thinking about his exciting day and holding Bianca's hat, when he heard yelling coming from downstairs.

He jumped out of bed, following Bianca who was already dashing downstairs.

He heard shouting at the front door. We went in that direction and froze when he saw Alfred blocking a group of loud teenagers from trying to get in.

Arguing with Alfred was Percy, Will, and Hazel, who all looked annoyed that Alfred was keeping a calm expression through all of this.

"Master Nico is in his room right now. If you would like me to go up and get him I'll do that, but you'll have to stay out here."

Percy was about to respond, probably say something stupid, when suddenly Hazel jumped. Rubbing against her feet was Bianca, looking comfy.

Percy immediately had Riptide out, pointing at the cat. That's when Nico had enough.

"You touch a hair on her head and I will personally send you back to Tartarus." He stormed over, shifting his ring into his sword and pointing it at Percy. He didn't want to hurt him but he was not letting him take Bianca away from him again.

Percy flinched at the name and turned to Nico, a confused look on his face, which then morphed into anger.

"Nico! You can't just come back after a month, bring a random dude and Leo, then say you're getting adopted and disappear."
