"How did you get into the Batcave!?" I ask grabbing a batarang and throwing it at the man in the room. He dodges and puts his hands up like as if her was under arrest." Who are you?" I ask in a more calm tone. He takes off his red helmet and I gasp." Jason!?" I ask pulling off the cowel.
"Hey Dick. Long time no see, sorry about the shoulder." Jason said to Me as I pull him into a hug. He hugs back and chuckles." Bruce would test my DNA before even looking at me but you hug me right away." Jason said, his voice wavering. I stand back and look at him. He had Blue eyes and Black hair like mine, but my eyes are brighter if I do say so myself. I smile and turn around, walking up the stairs to the mansion.
"Want some food?" I ask stopping and he immediately runs after me." Let's go change first..." I suggest as we enter the elevator. He gives me a look that says 'do I really need to?' And I laugh as I put an arm around his shoulder.
When we are sitting at the table waiting for dinner(I told Alfred that Jason would explain everything while we eat...)." Um... why we're you trying to kill Bruce?" I ask softly and Jason stiffened. He sighs and replies.
"I'm not sure exactly... something has been wrong with me. I was resurrected in something called the Lazarus Pit. It did something, now I'm angry all the time, sometimes I'm angry at Joker... other times it's at Bruce, or more accurately... Batman. I can control it sometimes but other times I just feel a need to kill..." Jason said looking down at the table. I look at him and sigh. He needs help...
"Well... I don't blame you! You must feel anger, everyone does at some point. Maybe you can temporarily join the Young Justice team and we can help you..." I suggest and he thinks about this for a moment." You could go on missions and I monitor every single one of them so you would never be apart from me... just don't try to kill me again." I say laughing and he laughs too." Oh... but they think I'm Bruce! I told them that Nightwing was busy in Blüdhaven so right now I'm pretending to be Bruce... well Batman." I say looking down and he gives me a sympathetic smile. I look up to see Alfred come in with dinner and Jason explains everything that has happened in the last few months.
When he was done I smiled." Let's watch a movie! Like old times..." I suggest and Jason's fave lights up. I'll take that as a yes. "Alfred would you like to join us?" I ask the butler as I stood up followed by Jason. The butler kindly declined but offered to make popcorn." What movie should we watch?" I ask as we walk into our home theater. He smiles.
"How about..."
