The Dog Fights | Damian Wayne

Chapter 13

I dressed in the white T-shirt and sweat pants before pulling on a giant hoodie that was three times my size. I could only assume it was Jason's from the smell and size. I tucked my hair behind my ear before I slipped on a baseball cap that I can once again assume was Jason's.

I pull the hood up over the ballcap and shoved the sunglasses onto my face before I stuffed my clothes into the bag. I carried the bag out of the cell and into the main hall of the police station. The lights of the station hurt even though I had sunglasses on. Rand trailed my tail as I wearily wondered the police station looking for Jason.

I walked all the way to the front and as I did Rand snarled at anyone who walked too close to me. I ran to Jason when I saw him at the front desk signing off on a paper. He handed it back just as I arrived and he snorted at my appearance.

"You look like my hoodie is trying to drowned you," he snorted. I roll my eyes behind the sunglasses, I gasp as I look out the glass doors of the building to see a crowd of press. I snap my head up to look at Jason as he sighed.

"Press caught wind I was getting you out today and they all showed up not too long ago," He grumbled. Jason leaned down into my ear "I may have kept your first name as Anubis but for the sake of press can we just call you Citlali?" He whispered. I nodded as I saw relief washed over him.

Jason took a deep breath as a limo pulled up on the curb. "Are you ready kiddo?" He asked and I nodded. And just as I did so the limo door bursts open and four people jump out and start to push back the press. Jason took that as his cue to wrap an arm around my shoulder and push me threw the doors and threw the makeshift pathway all the way to the limo.

I pulled the cap down to shield the bright flashes of cameras but just as we get to the limo one managed to slip threw the wall and stood between us and the limo. I flinch and tucked into Jason as the flash of his Camera blinded me.

I hiss as my eyes began to sting. I didn't see much after that. All I herd was yelling, the sound of Rand's growl, and one terrified scream. I felt Jason pick me up and the rush of air telling me he was quick to get me into the limo. My vison started to clear up as I hear multiple panicked voices enter the same space as me.

The limo was dark, probably for my sake, so I pulled of the sunglasses to meet six faces. I look at each one closely and only one of them I didn't recognize. Beside me was Jason who looked worried but I just smiled and patted his shoulder to reassure him for extra measures.

Beside Jason was a red haired man I didn't know. He had shoulder length hair and freckles covered his face. "Anubis this is Roy. He's my best friend and I can safely assure you he will be around quite a lot," Jason introduced.

I nodded in acknowledgment and turned to the rest. Across from us was four males. "I'm sure you know Damian and Bruce," Jason said. I nodded and waved shyly over at Damian who just sat there looking uncomfortable.

"But this is Dick and that's Tim," Jason pointed. I waved to them as well before we all sat in silence "Well umm...My name is Anubis but for the sake of publicity call me Citlali" I smile. "Citlali? What the hell kind of name is that Jason?" Roy snorted.

I stiffen and bit my lip "Is that a name not many like? I rather liked it when Jason showed me my birth certificate," I ask. I twitched with my finger slightly and became nervous. I don't remember a time where I worried on someone else's opinion but here I am.

"Way to go Roy!" Jason snapped. "The name is fine," Bruce spoke up as all went quite. "You'll be staying at the manor until all the press cool down and by the looks of it, that wont be for awhile." Bruce sighed.

"Jason and I already agreed we'd start to work on your own space at his safe house for you before you move that way you won't have to sleep on the floor when the heat finally cools down," Roy grinned.

"Now that your in the public eye. you'll be going to school too," Bruce but it. I perk up "Really?!?" I asked trying my best not to sound too excited but failed. I see a small smile grace the lips on Damian Wayne but it vanished as soon as he saw I was looking at him.

"I'm sure you'll prove excellent in academics," Bruce said voidly. I only nodded too happy to think anything of his tone. I look down at Rand but a sudden realization stopped my happy mood "Will I be able to bring Rand. He won't bite anyone unless provoked even then he won't do anything unless I give the command. Though I won't give the command if it meant I won't be able to have him with me if I did," I ranted.

Bruce held his hand up to stop me and I quickly sealed my lips "I'll see what I can do," was all he said and I nodded. After all the shit I just went threw I don't think I could even go to the bathroom without Rand. At this point he's one of the only things that can keep me grounded and is basically a emotional support animal.

I look down at Rand fearful of what the hell may happen but it was short lived as we pulled into a familiar gate and long drive way. I swallow harshly as I climb out along with Rand. "Well Welcome home," Jason said. Welcome home indeed.
