Y/n POV

I walked down the stairs of the Wayne Manor, walking to the living room, suddenly introduced by a young boy, sitting on the couch.

I looked at him confused, wondering who he is. I raised an eyebrow and walked towards him.

"Hello?" I called him.

He looks at me and also raises an eyebrow.

"Hello, miss." The boy said, standing up from the couch.

"Um can I help you with something?" I asked him, crossing my arms.

"No, miss. I'm actually here because I'm working with Bruce Wayne now or, actually kind of gonna be raised by him." The boy said, just shrugging.

I looked at him surprised. Wondering who is this kid and how did Bruce meet this kid and also how the hell does this kid know Bruce.

"Well, I actually should introduce myself. My name's Tim Drake." Tim politely introduced himself, and offering a handshake.

"Y/n L/n." I said, shaking his hand. "Do you want me to note Bruce that you're here to see him?"

"Oh no. He already knows I'm here. He just went downstairs for something I guess." He said

"Okay. I'll be right back." I said, smiling at him and ran off downstairs to the Batcave changing my smile into a frown.

I stomp my way towards Bruce seeing him sitting on his chair thinking.

"Bruce!" I yelled at him.

He turns his chair to face me.

"Good morning, Y/n." He said, knowing that I'm pissed at him.

"Don't 'good morning Y/n' me, Bruce! Who is that kid upstairs." I said, pointing up, mentioning Tim that is upstairs in the Wayne Manor.

I hear Bruce sigh and standing up from his chair.

"He's name is Tim Drake-" I cut him off.

"Yeah, I know that now but I mean who is he?" I asked him.

"Tim is actually gonna be the new Robin." Bruce started. "Last week, Tim stole Penguin's fortune just to prove to me he is worthy on becoming the new Robin as my sidekick, which one night Penguin's gang went to his house and started shooting up the whole house. His parents are fine, their just in witness protection right now. So, I allow Tim to become my partner, not my sidekick."

"Okay, no offense, Bruce, but I don't want Tim to become the new Robin. You know what happen to the last Robin." I said, slowly started to break down.

Right after Jason died, I didn't want anyone to take over his mantel. I just don't want a new Robin and let this Robin die, just like how he died.

Bruce walked towards me and places a hand on my shoulder.

"I know this is hard for you, Y/n, but I'm worthy on giving Tim a chance." Bruce said, releasing his hand from my shoulder.

I sigh and I looked down at the ground for a second and I looked back at him.

"Okay, fine. But if this Robin blows it, I'm not scared and going telling his alive parents what happened to him." I snapped at him.

Bruce turns his head, looking at the batcomputer. I realized that the same batarang with Red Hood's blood on it is still here.

"Anyway, did you analyzed it?" I asked him.

Bruce looks back at me and nods.

"I did. I know who he is now." Bruce said, walking towards the batarang.

"Well? Who is it?" I asked him.

Bruce stayed quiet for awhile and looks back at me.

"You'll find out soon." Bruce sighed.

I groaned in annoyance and I walked back upstairs to talk to this Tim person.

I walk to the living room, seeing Tim is no longer in sight.

"Uhh." I said, looking around, seeing any sign of Tim.

I suddenly hear people chattering and I walked towards the kitchen, seeing Tim and Dick talking.

I arched an eyebrow and walked towards them.

"Hey guys." I smiled, breaking their conversation.

They both looked at me and Dick smiled.

"Hey Y/n." Dick greeted, walking towards me and giving me a small hug which I give back.

"Hi Dick. Since when did you got here?" I asked him.

"Oh, I just got here. Then I suddenly ran into this guy right here." Dick said, pointing at Tim.

I gave him a small smile and nodded.

"Ah, yes. Tim Drake, Bruce's new...kid." I said, with no emotion.

Tim tilted his head to the side and Dick responded.

"Really? Wow! Well then," Dick smiled, wrapping his arm around Tim's shoulder. "welcome to family now, Tim."

Tim smiled at him.

"Thanks." Tim said

Dick patted his shoulder and slowly pulled away.

"Well, I got to go find Alfred." Dick said, walking away leaving Tim and I alone.

I hummed and I slowly walked closer to him.

"So, I just talk to Bruce about you." I said, rubbing my hands together.

"You did?" Tim said, a little nervous.

"Yeah. He said something that I never thought I heard come out of his mouth, replacement." I said, giving him a small smirk.

Tim looked at me and gulped a bit. I walked towards him and stand by his side, wrapping my arm around his shoulder, pulling him closer to me and I whispered to his ear.

"You may become the new Robin, but trust me, if you blow this as Robin and ruin his name, I won't hesitate hurt you."

"Is that a threat I'm hearing?" Tim whispered back, looking at me.

"Why? You want to make it sound a threat?" I told him.

"No. I know he does mean everything to you. I won't ruin his name." Tim told me, removing my arm from his shoulders.

"Just a little heads up." I told him, pushing past him and walk away.

I walk to the front door of the Wayne Manor and just went out for a walk. Need to clear my head.
