Dixie: 8, 10, 13

(This has ties to Return of the Joker)

Eight-year-old Dixie Grayson approaches her sister Timber Drake's door. "Timber?" She knocks five times.

"Do you wanna go patrolling?

Come on, please come outside.

You've stayed locked up in here

Ever since last year

Why do you always hide?"

Dixie goes into her room, playing with her Robin dolls.

"We used to be close sisters

But now we're not.

I wish you would tell me why."

She approaches the door again.

"Do you wanna go patrolling?

We don't just have to go patrolling."

From behind the door, Timber says, "Go away, Dixie."

Dixie hangs her head.

"Okay, bye." She walks away.

Ten-year-old Dixie runs up to Timber's door yet again, since her sisters, brothers, and Brenna are gone, giggling as she knocks on it.

"Do you wanna go patrolling?

Or maybe run around the hall?"

Dixie runs down the stairs and jumps, crashing into the chandelier.

"I think some company is overdue

I've started talking to the picture on the wall."

She jumps into a big chair and looks up at a picture of her parents. "Hey there, guys," she says. Dixie sits in front of the grandfather clock.

"It gets a little lonely, all these empty rooms

Watching the seconds go by."

Dixie makes clock noises while watching the clock intently.

Three years later, when Brenna, Teri, Damia, Cam, and Stephan are on patrol, a fateful event happens and they all die. Alfreda died on a plane crash. Thirteen-year-old Dixie walks down the hall to Timber's room, holding her Red Robyn doll. She knocks on Timber's door.

"Timber?" She says.

"Please, I know you're in there.

You've been hiding all these years.

Please, have courage. I know you're trying to,

But I really need you.

We're the last ones here.

We only have each other, just you and me.

What are we gonna do?"

Dixie slides down into a sitting position in front of the door.

"Do you wanna go patrolling?" Dixie starts to sob. Behind the door, Timber is sitting against the door as well. She puts her head in her hands and sobs quietly.

A moment later, Dixie has left to go to her room, but the Red Robyn doll sits in front of the door.
