A secret Decoded

Trying to Understand

"I know your right, I just can't help being deathly worried about Will,." Dick told me, and Jay walked up and rapped her arms around his waist, I looked into her eyes and knew that she was having trouble keeping the tears from forming behind her eyes, Jay kissed Dicks neck and I saw him visibly relax, then she whispered so quietly that only Dick and I could hear (and of course the alien with super hearing), "Relax, its Will we're talking about, I'm sure he'll be fine."

"I know how you feel Dick, Will is my angel. I would do anything to protect him, but this time, I haven't the slightest idea what that may be." I told the two of them, by know I had all but forgotten about the others in the room, but Flash know made himself known once again.

"who the hell is Will? and did you seriously just say that he was your angel?" Flash said.

I slowly turned around knowing that I would have had to tell them everything sooner or later, but I had not been planning on having to do it today, but I took a deep breath and told them what I knew would bring more questions than it would answer.

"you all know what happened to my parents, but what you don't know is that I had a younger brother that had been exposed to chemicals on that night, it changed him, the changes couldn't been seen since they were to his genetic makeup. the chemicals gave him these abilities, one of which allowed him to heal from any wound, and to heal others. I've kept him hidden for the past fourteen years, I gave him a fake identity and gave him a life that was as normal as any other kids, all except for the fact that I taught him how to fight, and I had him come here every now and then to heal an injured leaguer. but Will is my brother, and yes Flash, I call him my angel, because he is. he is one of the few people that can make me smile, laugh and talk about my thoughts, and in all, he is one of the two people that I can be myself around." I told them all, and I could instantly see the shock it caused them, they all stared at me with open mouths and I knew it would be Flash that asked the first question even before he opened his mouth.

"why didn't any of us know before now?" Flash asked, he didn't sound angry he just sounded confused, like he couldn't believe I didn't tell them all.

"Flash, have you told us everything about your life?... I didn't think so, I didn't tell anyone about my brother because I didn't want to put him in danger and I hoped that by not telling you about him I would keep him away from the league." I explained, and then before I could continue some-kind of energy ball appeared in the middle of the room and expanded until there was a kind of portal floating over the table, and as we watched a man appeared in the portal and then the picture expanded and we saw his whole body, that's when we knew he was an alien, he had the upper-body of a man, but his lower body was that of a snake, and lying at his feet-tail-what-ever-you-call-it was Will. the thing smiled directly at me, and for the first time I experienced the feeling that most people might feel when I give them the Bat-Glare.

"I just wanted to assure you that William was fine...for the moment, and to tell you that you might want to say goodbye to your friends." with that the man-snake-thing started laughing and the portal disappeared. leaving us all in the room in shock, Dick and I shared a glance, and then I felt a sheering pain in my chest and I collapsed, the last thing I saw before everything went black, was my fellow leaguers staring at me with concern.

Bruce: did you have to make me seem so weak?

Jay: I thought it was cute.

Me: I made you seem weak because I was trying to make people see the caring side of Batman, and you being an over protective big brother and worried about your kidnapped little brother was a great way to do that.

Dick's POV:

I ran forward and caught Batman as he collapsed. if I hadn't been trained I probably would have fallen under his wait, but since I had been trained. I easily picked Batman up like a child and carried him quickly to the hospital wing.

as I ran through the halls, the other leaguers stopped what they were doing and stared, they had never seen Batman weak, but they now saw him being carried in the arms of his son, who was carrying him at a run towards the hospital wing.

when I arrived in the wing, the lead doctor immediately took Batman from me and told me to wait in the waiting room while they checked him over. I knew I wouldn't be able to sit down and wait so I settled for pacing the waiting room until the others from the room came running in to check on Batman.

"is Batman alright?" Flash demanded as soon as he came zooming into the room, he was going really fast and he quickly started zooming around me, and knowing it would be helpless to try and keep him still, I say nothing as he running around me in circles. and when I go to answer him the lead doctor comes out of a side door and hearing the question, he answers.

"Batman is in a coma, and I'm am sorry to say, but there is no way for me to figure out when he will awake." the doctor said, and sensing he wasn't going to say anything more, I ran out of the room and down the halls, not even caring that I was running into other leaguers. I could hear the others running after me but I ignored them as I ran to the telaporters and telaported to the Cave, where I instantly started trying to find out anything I could about the Man-Snake-Alien-Thing, but to no success. until I came across a picture that looked just like the Man-Snake-Alien-Thing, and it said she knew a lot about them. since it was my only lead, I quickly set out to find this girl.

if I was going to find my brother, and help my father, I would be relying on the help of some one known as.
