Tim shows me where to go. Bruce apparently arranged for me to be in most of my classes with him. First period is Homeroom, duh.

Homeroom goes by quick. The teacher, Mr. Mathews, doesn't do the "stand up and introduce yourself" thing from the movies. In fact none of the teachers do that. They point me out as a new student and that's it. I just sit next to Tim in my classes. Then gym rolls around.

I go into the girls locker room. Tim obviously goes to the boys. I get a uniform and a locker. I go and change. I go out and wait for gym to start. Tim runs out of the boys locker room and then runs to me. "You ok?" He asks. I nod. "There's someone I want you to meet. STEPH!"

A blonde girl whips around. She scans the room, whispers something and runs toward us. "Carrie this is Steph, honorary family member. Steph this is Carrie, the new family member." Tim introduces us. I wave.

<**>

It's been four days and I'm still having thoughts of-

"DAMIAN, FRICK YOU!" Tim's loud scream slams me out of my zone. Tim wrestles Damian to the ground in the clearing.

"Dami, Tina!" B calls from the bench next to me. She's sitting next Steph and who I have now learned is Cass, who lives at the house but wasn't there they day I came. "Leave the fighting to the Cave." I turn to look at her, confused. She shrugs.

"That reminds me," Dick said from behind us. We all scream. Cass flips him off. "He said you should just learn now, incase, you know."

"What the frick?" I ask.

"Heh, come with me." He holds his hand out. "By the way, anyone know where Kate is?"

"Her girlfriends house, I think." B adds, shrugging again.

I take his hand and he leads me inside to the fire place. He presses his hand to the painting of the original Wayne family. A blue line passes his hand and someone says, "access granted".

"What the...?" I ask again, still confused. The fireplace folds out.

"As you may or may not know," he starts, walking down the six flights of stairs in front of us, I follow. " we're not your average family." He presses his hand to another scanner.

The door opens before I can finish, "yeah, no sh-" I stop and stare.

The walls this giant room are rock. Screens and black vehicles line the walls. Bruce sits on a chair in front of a large screen cluster. Alfred stands behind him. Super hero suits sit directly next to us. "Holy-!"

"Welcome to the Bat-Cave." Dick says calmly next to me. He gestures to a Robin costume, "and that, is yours."
