This Is My Future

Chapter 53

Tim's P.O.V

I followed Tigress, Robin, and Artemis down the hall of the Wayne Foundation. All of us were in uniform, which made things even worse if we got caught.

"How are we supposed to get to the Biomedical labs?" Artemis asked, "Wouldn't maintenance have shut everything down by now?"

"Probably," Tigress shrugged.

I sighed, "How have we not tripped the alarms yet?"

"Because we're just that good," she smirked.

I glanced behind us and notice a flashlight beam bouncing off a wall. "Hide!" I whispered and dived behind one of the potted ferns. The others did the same with other objects.

I watched as the security guard passed my fern.

He held his flashlight up looking around.

I checked the others to make sure he passed them, but I couldn't see Tigress. I flinched when a door burst open and hit the guard rendering him unconscious.

Tigress walked out of the room the door led into and shut the door gently. She grabbed the guard's key ring.

"Thanks bud," she smiled, jingling the keys.

"Tigress!" I snapped, rising to my feet.

She ignored me. "Hey!" She said, "I know him. Bobby! No, wait. Billy!"

I rolled my eyes.

She shrugged and put the guard in a room. She headed down the hall, spinning the keys on her finger.

"Wow..." Robin said, appearing next to me, "She can be..."

"Stupid?" I muttered.

Robin shrugged, "I was going for more along the lines of 'weird' or 'funny', but that works too."

"Ow!" We both yelled when Artemis smacked us in the back of our heads as she passed us.

"Shhh!" Tigress hissed.

We all stopped short before following her down the hall.

"Robin," Tigress said.

"What?" Robin and I responded.

She looked at us.

"Oh wait," Robin and I said. We pointed at eachother, "Did you mean him?"

Tigress grabbed my shoulder and pulled me towards her.

I looked at her.

"Do you think you can hack the elevator?" She asked, "Or at least rewire it?"

"I can rewire, but Bruce will know if I hack it," I said.

She nodded, "Will you be able to fix it?"

"If we have a chance to get back on this floor, then yes."

"Then pop off that cover and get to work," she said, tapping the elevator panel.

I nodded and removed the metal plate. I carefully rearranged the motor wires.

The elevator dinged and the doors opened.

"My little engineer," Tigress smiled and kissed my head.

I felt my face turn red when Robin grinned at me teasingly.

We got in the elevator and I hit the button for the biotechnology labs floor.

We walked out and headed for the doors to the lab.
