   She sighed yet again, and looked down. A sad looked started to form on her face, but never fully formed, leaving her to go back into being emotionless. She opened her mouth, licking her lips a little.

  There was a silent pause as she looked over at me and finally started to say,

 
"Well... you're here because....."

________1st Person POV_________________

 
  "A coma??" I repeated back, and she nodded at me, signalling it was the truth.

  I sat there in shock as I thought about it, but before I could think any farther, Talia- or Mom- stopped me.

  "You fell into a coma due to all the overexertion of your power, and the stress of everything happening." She flipped on the TV, in my dreamscape house, and started to watch some weird show.

  "So I didn't fall into a coma due to not taking my medication?" I asked, and looked at the TV, intrigued by the program.

  My house looked the same as my original. Everything seemed to be in the same exact place I left it. The picture frames hanging on the walls, and on the end tables. The lamps, that we were about to sell, in the corner of the room, piling up still. The same food container left on the kitchen table, along with the paperwork for my father's work.

   I blinked a few times and tried to even pinch myself to make sure it wasn't a dream, but instead was real. Which, spoiler alert; it is real.

   "Nope. You never needed that medication anyways. They faked your heart condition, remember?" She stated as she glanced over at me.

  I gave her a confused, and fearful look as I didn't know what to think. No, I didn't remember anything. I barley remember my childhood, come to think of it. There are parts of it that are a blur, and some that shined brighter. I remembered my trips to the hospital, and I remember all the prescriptions they gave me, along with the surgeries.

  "How do you know this?? You're me and I don't know this!?" I said while throwing my hands up. I gave her a look of disbelief, as she gave me a soft smile, and looked up. I turned my head to where she was looking, and we now were in a park, on a bench. I wasn't surprised, since this is a dream world and all. So I looked off to the pretty scenery as well.

  I heard her sigh and felt her eyes on me, "Well, I'm your inner thoughts, so think of it,"

  I took a breath in and closed my eyes, thinking of it.

  Well. I am (Y/N) Al Ghul. Daughter of Talia Al Ghul and Bruce Wayne. I was supposedly born with a heart condition along with a few other things, which caused my mom to give me away to my parents....who are now not my parents... But...

  "Why are they after me now? Is it because of..." I hesitated for a second, having a quick realization, "My powers. Oh my God." I quickly jumped up and started to pace back and forth.

  I had so many memories, flashbacks, and ideas pop into my head as I raised my hand to point around, pinning pieces together.

"My mom faked my condition to get me to a hospital, which Dr Strange worked at, so he could test on me. The test had to be something dangerous, so that's why she used me. If it worked on me, then she was gonna do it to Damian, but they faked it not working on me, so that they could have me for themselves, and-" I paused for a second, catching my breath.
