Nightwing: Heroes

Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Batman was angrily throwing things around the house. He was so pissed at me he couldn't look at me without throwing a lamp. "Batman calm down I'm fine", I cry out. "I don't care now I have to pay all the bills for you. We can't tell your parents. So there's no excuse for that". Okay he had some serious anger issues. That needed to be resolved. "Batman I just wanted to prove to you that I could do something like you"!, I yell. "We'll, you've sure proven something. You know how to get your ass beat"! I couldn't even talk to him right now. I wish Robin was here. She was my best friend. We'll, actually, she's my only friend.

Robin and I go way back. To when we were just kids. When we first met, I have to admit, I couldn't stand her. She was an un-loyal brat who couldn't find her place in this world. But then we grew closer and closer. I feel like I can tell her anything. Were always there for each-other, even in the most direst of distress. But right now she was on vacation in San-Francisco. I couldn't wait till she got back. Batman was in a horrible mood. I couldn't stand him. I charged up to my room and took off my suit and my backpack slash glider. I opened the mirror in my room and put my suit on the coat hanger behind it. That's another thing. Batman always gives me the second hand tech, food, room, gear, and I can't even go into the bat-cave without him being in there or we were traveling.

He was some spoiled rich brat who had worse anger than the Hulk. But he wasn't always like this. When me and Robin were young, he was caring and kind. He was always watching out for us. But ever since Robin left for the summer, and my nineteenth birthday, he's been acting like a real basterd! I couldn't stand him right now. I needed some time alone. I left the manor and went for a drive into Gotham. I stopped at my favorite burger place, Teddy's grill. It had the best burgers you'll ever even put in your mouth. But even that couldn't cheer me up. So once I finished my food I left to see a movie. Edge Of Tomorrow was playing tonight. Man, Tom Cruise is a good actor. I went up to buy popcorn and a girl and a couple of her friends walked up to me.

I recognized one of them from one of my classes. "Hey Dick"!, the girl cried out. She knew my name? How? Does she go to Smithson University? I've never talked to her before. "Uh... hi"?, was all I could muster. "It's okay Dick, I know you probably don't know me but I know you. Then the girl in front looked into my eyes. Her friends walked away and went into the theater to see a different movie. She held my hand and said, "Are you gonna see Edge Of Tomorrow? Because I am". She stroked her finger up my arm and stopped at my shoulder. Wow. Now that I notice it, this girl is really hot! And she was seducing me?... Wow this night might turn out to be okay after all. "Maybe we could sit together and 'talk'". "Oh..okay". Once again, all I could muster. I still couldn't believe a girl as hot as her was trying to get to know me at all. Once we bought our popcorn we headed into the theater and seated ourselves at the very top row.
