*sighs*

I guessss I'll update.....

"That the dumbest plan I've ever heard,"Wally groaned,"That's hardly even a plan!"

"What does it matter as long as no one is getting hurt?" Dick turned away.

"Dick, you cannot do this on your own." The two were currently ditching their "therapy session" with Black Canary as they roamed the streets of Gotham city.

"But I'm going to anyways."

"I'm gonna tell Batman."

Dick stopped walking,"No, no you're not."

"Are you being serious right now, Dick? This isn't up for debate."

Dick lowered his head,"Please.... Don't tell him. I don't want anyone to get hurt because of me."

Wally gave in,"Fine, but I'm going."

"No."

Wally rolled his eyes,"Either I go, or I tell Batman. Your choice."

"I scheduled the time we would meet up, all I need is a reply from the Court of Owls." Dick recited to Wally. He had contacted them the exact same way he did back in Bialya, sending them a message stating that he would agree to meet up and would need an exact time and location as to when that would take place.

"I have a bad feeling about this..." The redhead groaned slightly. The two had relocated to Robins room within the Manor. Bruce was at work and Alfred was cleaning downstairs, so this was the best place they could talk- especially since they were trying to avoid the cave therapy session occurring.

"Then don't go." Dick murmured as he twiddled with his fingers.

Wally stood up highly aggravated,"Dick, do you want to go back to the Court of Owls? Do you want to go back to that life?"

Dick was allowed no time to respond.

"Because that's what it seems like. Allow me, allow other people to help you, it's the only way you'll be able to get through this. The Court of Owls is a very strong group, as you probably know, and you can't do this on your own unless your really plan is to join them once again.... Plus, I kind of owe you one for saving my ass when we first met..."

Dick let out a small chuckle at the ending of Wally's lecture,"I don't want to go back, I really don't, and I'm sorry that it seems that way.... Just- I just want you to be there to cover me, let's not involve other people. It's safer that way."

Wally nodded, obviously not entirely pleased.

A small beep was then heard from Dicks hologram computer. He pulled up what had caused the beeping: 1 New Message

Both males exchanged worried looks.

Richard,

I am highly pleased that you have come to your senses. The rest of the Court doubted that you would and saw only your death as an option, fortunately I was able to convince them of otherwise and how right I truly was. I knew that you were quite a delightful nephew of mine.

As for that meeting arrangement, the meeting will take place tomorrow night at 10:00 p.m. You will not be given the location until an hour before, for security measures.

I am most proud that you have decided to choose the Court over those selfish heroes,

Your Uncle,

W.C.

Silence filled the room after the letter was read,"Well, he definitely seems like a family man if you ask me."

Robin frowned,"Too much of a family man, this isn't normal for him at all. He never has referred to me as his nephew."

"What do you think that's about?" The two were discussing the tone that Dicks Uncle had decided to use.

"I'm not sure.... but it's anything but comforting."

"Maybe he's just feeling nice" Wally shrugged.

"Yeah, and maybe he'll join the police force and decide to fight for Justice, rather than to kill people."

The sarcasm was strong.

"Well, whatever the case is, I say we go kick some Owl butt!"

Robin smiled. Truly, he didn't want to go back, that bit that he had told Wally was true, but if someone's life was on the line, he'd go back in a heartbeat. Though he would never tell his speedster friend this knowing what he would say.

Dick would just need to wait until tomorrow night to know the final outcome.

Oh how the world hates filler chapters, but they are indeed necessary.

After this, there are only 2 chapters left! 2 chapters!! This book is coming to an end.... now do I give it a happy or sad ending....? You'll just have to see!
