"Katie you have to go."
"No! I'm not going!"
"Karen Mary Grayson you are going young lady!"
"No I'm not! I don't want to go! Mami wouldn't make me go!"
"Katie you're not living at the circus anymore. You have to go!"
"No I'm not going!" After that a slam could be heard through the house as Katie slammed and locked the door to her room in the mansion.
"Karen Grayson! If you don't get out of your room right now and march yourself downstairs you won't see the inside of the bat cave for a month!" Bruce Wayne yelled from the other side of said door.
"Fine!"
"Master Bruce enough with all of this yelling! You're as bad as a child!" Alfred said as he scolded the Batman. "Now Miss Karen. I expect you downstairs and dressed in 10 minutes. If you are not their will be no breakfast for you today and you will go to school hungry." Alfred said to the door.
"Well I'm not going so that's not a problem!" Katie yelled.
"Now Miss Karen I know school came seem scary. Master Bruce did not like school much either. In fact, if my memory serves me correctly I do believe he brought his stuffed bear with him his first few weeks of school."
"Alfred!" Bruce said not entirely keen on his butler sharing all the embarrassing details of his childhood.
"He did?" Katie asked from the other side of the door.
"Yes he most certainly did. And you would not believe how much that the young master cried after his mother dropped him off. He was quite frightened." With that Bruce left, hoping to not hear anymore young Bruce stories.
"Really?"
"Now would I lie to you Miss."
"N-no I suppose you wouldn't Alfred."
"Now how about you get your uniform on and come down stairs to get something to eat?"
"But the uniforms so ichy!" Katie complained as she opened the door to see Alfred.
"Now Miss Karen you must get used to your uniform. I am sure it will get better after a few days."
"Fine!" Katie grumbled. And with that she closed her door so that she could put on the ichy cotton uniform.

A couple minutes later Katie Grayson marched down the stairs of the manor into the kitchen. The room smelled like pancakes! Pancakes were the best type of breakfast they were positively asterous! So Katie quickly ran out into the dining room to find three places set at the table with a pile of pancakes on each plate and Bruce sitting drinking his coffee and reading his newspaper.
"You decided to come down?" Bruce asked without looking up from his reading.
"Yep, I don't want to banned from the batcave, so I guess I have to try out this school thing. It doesn't sound very fun though. I'm sure Mami was a better teacher then any of the teachers at this stupid school that this school that you're sending me and Dick to." she complained as she pulled out her chair and sat down.
The pancakes looked even better then they smelled! Katie picked up the syrup, pouring it all over her pancakes and then started shoving them into her mouth. They were absolutely amazing! Alfred made the best pancakes in the world!
"When did Nico and Thalia say that they would be dropping by today?" Bruce asked as he put his newspaper down beside his plate.
"They said they'd be here in time to drag us to school." Katie said around a mouthful. "Nico said that he'd try to get here by 7:30. Bruce do you know where Dick is?" she asked, as she looked around the room hoping to spot her elusive brother.
