Nobodies P.O.V

"I-I need some time alone." Percy says throwing clothes in a suitcase.

She knew her all her boys Wally, Roy, Terry, Dick, Jason, Connor, and Kuldur was outside her door even Alfred but she didn't really care.

She knew that they had been worried about her since she had that vision two nights ago.

She had been insanely quiet and she always seemed sad, but nobody knew why.

"Percy." Bruce says standing in her way of the closet. "Why are you leaving? What's this about?"

"Nothing Everything just.......ughh." She screams in frustration. "I need some time alone so I'm not bringing the boys with me this time."

"Where are you going?!"

"Where you can't follow me Bruce!"

"Your kidding!" Bruce says in frustration. "You're going to hide in the ocean?!"

"I'm a big girl I can take care of myself."

"You're going to leave." Bruce says in disbelief. "And take our child with you?"

"Just cause I'm pregnant doesn't make me glass!" Percy yells. "And you speak as if I'm not coming back."

"When then?"

"I......I don't know."

"You're being selfish." Bruce yells at her. "Not only will this affect me but everyone else in this house you're a mother or did you forget?"

"You can't be serious everything I do is for us our family." Percy says close to tears. "But I need this for me."

"What is your problem? Why are you like this? Ever since that day."

"Bruce...... you're going to have a son." Percy says sadly.

"That's great why would that make you sad? Did you want a gir-"

"Because he won't be mine!" Percy says her voice wavering as tears leak from her eyes. "He looks like you when we where kids but his eyes are green not sea green but emerald green like Talia's."

"You don't know that!" Bruce says pulling her into a tight hug. "Some of your visions are false or have double meanings or it could be our grandchild."

"But what if it isn't? Then what Bruce?"

"Then we'll deal with it me and you." Bruce says wiping away her tears. "But don't take it out on our sons don't take it out on me. It isn't our fault."

"If he's yours his name will be Damian." Percy says looking into her husband's eyes. "He'll eventually come here. Besides that I know nothing else."

"You mean if it's even real."

"Yeah if it's real."

"Oh dear." Alfred says looking at the boys. "This is even worse than when she burned down the kitchen and my favorite pots."

"Alfred I'm going to have a half brother in the future and you're worried about pots and your kitchen utensils." Terry said unamused.

"Yeah not cool." Roy says crossing his arms. "I think we should find that Talia girl and put an arrow through her."

"I like you." Jason says to Roy. "And I like the way you think."

"We're not sticking and arrow in anybody." Dick says." And even if we wanted to we have no idea where she is."

"Maybe we should respect mother's wishes and let her go to the ocean." Kuldur says earning a smack in the back of the head and from all the boys.

"No!" Wally says in frustration. "If we let her go we don't know when she'll come back. What if she doesn't come back until about a year or two."
