Robin's POV
We sat looking through the old records for when I travelled through realms the first time, 5 years ago. Dick had no trouble digging through the files while I sat and watched, waiting for an answer. When we finally got to the file we needed it was on the highest security level possible, Dad had purposely made it so that only he could get into it. "Well that sucks, we can't even do this secretly now, I'll go get Dad" I said getting up. As I did get up, I realised Jason had disappeared. "Hey where did Jason go?" I asked. "Don't know, don't really care" he replied bluntly. "Hey you love him really, don't lie to me Grayson" I said, pointing my finger in his face. "Okay yeah I do, but he's still a Royal pain in the ass" Dick admitted. Smiling at his confession, I continued in my original direction towards the manor.

I was curious as to why my dad had put the file under such high security, I mean I guess we hadn't tried Tim yet seeing he was the best at hacking and stuff, but all the same I doubt even Tim could crack that. The software used to protect the file was all too similar to me and I knew that whatever the file contained it must be extremely important.

Flashback- Robin aged 7
I was sat with Dad down in the cave, we'd been doing some training and dad had stopped to go sort something out in the computer. Out of curiosity I had followed him and was now watching him move files around and input security software. "Dad what are you doing?" I asked. "I'm making sure nobody can see these files Robin, this is the highest security software I have" he replied. My eyes widened with interest, "don't you need a password dad?" I asked. He nodded. "You want to choose it for me?" He asked, I smiled and nodded. "Yeah you should use the word.......

I snapped back to reality when I least wanted to, I usually enjoyed having the flashbacks, but this one just annoyed me. "I see you've found the file" came a voice from in front of me. I looked up to see my dad was stood there. "Can we have the password dad, I nearly remembered it, but my flashback cut me short, please!" I begged. "If so we need to get the others, go gather them and come back down. Dick and I need to talk anyway" dad said. Dick looked worried when dad said they needed to talk, I mean, I would too. I winked at him and mouthed good luck to him before I headed upstairs to find the others.

I went straight to Damian's room first even offering him a ride on my shoulders before we both moved down the corridor to Tim's room. Once I'd got the younger two we stopped outside Jason's room. I knocked on his door while calling out his name, there was no reply. I opened up his door and it turns out there was nobody home, he'll just have to find out when he gets home. I texted him anyway telling him that dad was discussing something important with us and that I'd fill him in on it when he got back, that way he wouldn't be left out of the loop.

The three of us who were there headed back down to the cave, Dad and Dick had obviously finished their talk and now as they were both messing around with the computers and some files. "Dad everyone is here, well apart from Jason, but I can tell him later. So what's so important about this?" I said excitedly. "What's in this file, it's about you Robin" he said. I was utterly confused by this, yes I understood that right now I was quite a mystery to my family and even to myself, but I thought that file was about travelling through realms. Instead of questioning my dad on this, I listened more waiting to get a reasonable answer from his explanation. "Robin you see, you have the power to travel through realms, and open portals to other realms"

What my dad said was a shock to my brain, to all of our brains in fact. Me having super powers? The ability to travel through realms and create portals? This can't be true! If so why haven't I had any side effects or felt weird about this? "Well how come I don't feel like I have powers?" I asked immediately. "I created a solution which is edible which suppresses your powers, so that I could help you learn to control them when you were younger and so I can explain it properly now"  dad replied. I looked to Dick for conformation on this, my eyes searching his face for an answer, all I received was a blank face, there was no confusion, no shock, he seemed if anything relaxed with the situation. "Who else knew about this?" I asked pointing towards Dad and Dick mostly. "We both know however Dick didn't remember until I gave him some of the reversal memory loss serum. He remembers now" dad explained, managing to keep my anger and shock suppressed.
