DISCONTINUED - Secret Twins

FailSafe part 2

Danni "memory"

The scene cleared. Danni looked around and held her breath. She was in the Batcave. At the computers to be exact. She looked around, seeing if there was somebody here. Fortunate for her, there was nobody. She walked around, remembering every little thing they used to do here. She brightened a little, and started running towards a seemingly random place. She stopped in front of a wall. She looked up and frowned. Dick and her found a little cave within the Batcave the month after they became heroes. Though now, there wasn't any sign that it was even discovered. She flew up to see if there was anything in there to indicate that somebody has found it yet.

Reaching the mini cave, she noticed that all that was in there was dust. Not even any sign that they send the remote Bat-a-rang to check it out.

She descended again and walked back to the computer. Just as she reached it, Batman came down the steps, followed by a younger version of her brother and her. What shocked her was that they had a pissed yet determined look on them. Batman however had an equally pissed and determined look, though there was a hint of concern that she didn't notice before.

Teen Danni inspected the little twins of this moment, all those weird happy feelings leaving again. They were both wearing black pants and sport shoes. Though both wearing hoodies, little Dick's was a dark red while little Danni's was navy. The look looked familiar, but from where?

Oh yeah. This, with a little tweaks here and there, was the look the twins had chosen to be their 'civilian' look. The colors were a little lighter and they wore black sunglasses, but for the rest was the look the same.

Something clicked inside Teen Danni's mind. Their age, the looks, not having the mini cave yet. This was the moment when-.

Her train of though was interrupted by an angry growl from Dick. "What's your deal anyways? Why can you go around, dressed up as a bat no less, beating up criminals while we can't?" Dick asked and immediately regretted it. How could he have spoken out to the guy that chose to foster him, without him he may have ended up in an orphanage or worse.

Batman looked over at them, not really trying to hide his annoyance. "I have trained for many years and am capable of taking out criminals because of that."

This time it was little Danni that reacted. "Still. You may have trained in martial arts, but we are natural acrobats. Along with that and that we have each other's backs, it compensates for out 'lack' in martial arts training."

Teen Danni stared at the 9 year old her. She did not remember herself being so outspoken.

Batman, being the stubborn Bat that he was, did not give up so easily. "That doesn't matter. Your inability to preform martial arts puts you at a disadvantage compared to your opponents.-" Whatever Batman was going to say was cut off by little Danni again. "Not having somebody to have your back puts you at a disadvantage too. No matter how good you think you are, you'd be outnumbered far more easily without a partner." She said a little smugly.

Dick was looking at her wide eyed, not believing his sister semi-insulted the man that is fostering him, a crime fighting superhero at night and the CEO of his own company. Even though Bruce may do a horrible job at being a 'parent', with all his hours at W-E and being Batman, he wouldn't go that far. True he did speak out a few minutes before, but he wasn't thinking and he kind of regrets it. His sister on the other hand was clearly thinking, but about what was a good question.

The man himself was not looking quite pleased with being cut off by a 9 year old girl and having been practically told he's not good enough for Gotham. He mildly glared at her while she didn't even flinch, and that is worth an applause seeing as almost nobody could withstand any form of the Batglare without even flinching. "With a partner, I'd only be distracted because I have to make sure they don't die. Villains could also use said partner to get to me. Not only that but having a partner would make it easier to figure out my identity."
