Family of Heroes!

Part 10

Daniela's POV~
I am trying to gather my thoughts on how I was going to explain my coronation but I couldn't focus and I was yawning every two minutes. So I look at the time on my big brothers watch to see a big red 12:00pm staring at me. "I don't know about you guys but I am tired can we please continue this later? Like when I can focus and at a more reasonable hour." I really need some sleep. Or I am going to start phasing through the floor again.

With that being said we all agreed to talk more in the morning. As everyone leaves to go to bed (Dash has a vacation house here) I turn to my big brother smiling, while unconsciously scratching my cheek. "So, where am I sleeping?" The next second I am laughing because of the look on his face. " What, did you think I was living somewhere close by or that I would be going back there when I am this tired?" I give him the same look that Sam gives to Tucker and I when we do or say something stupid.

Robin/Richard POV

Does she have to look at me like I'm stupid? Where did she even learn how to make that look anyway? "Okay, jeez it was just a one time thing. I just didn't know what to say and let me also state that not only are you tired but so am I and-..." Is... is she laughing? And I was rambling.

Sighing I smile at Daniela and notice that her eyes start to droop. "Okay now it's really time for you to sleep. Come on." I hold her up and lead her to the Zeta tube with one destination in mind. Home...

I was just closing the grandfather clock when I ran into Alfred. In his hands was a tray with two glasses of milk.

"Young Master Richard, I was told by Master Bruce that she was coming so I had a room prepared across from yours." I smiled softly at Alfred just shaking my head all the while thinking of course they already have everything done.

"Thank you Alfred." I take one of the glasses of milk and drink. I look down at my little sister to see if she would like the milk but she was fast asleep. "Sorry Alfred but it looks like she's asleep already. I need to get her to bed."

"It's alright young Master Richard, goodnight." Alfred said while leaving taking the glasses both full and empty back to the kitchen.

As we reach the hallway with our rooms I look down at Daniela fondly. She may not be the same age as back then but she sure as hell is acting like it. Using me as a pillow, and falling asleep so I have to carry her. I tuck her in and finally make it to my own bed letting sleep come.

And surprisingly for once I am not haunted by nightmares or memories of my parents death. For once I actually had a peaceful night's rest. I just hope that Daniela can say the same. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Morning Daniela's POV
I woke up in a super soft bed feeling the most rested I have ever been in a long time. No ghost attacks ≈ better sleep. Huh. who knew.

I hear a knock at the door so I get up to answer it. I open the door to my big brother. Although I really can't keep calling him big brother, well I can but, we have both grown up since then. Oh!!! Yay nickname time! Dicky!Rubbing the last of the sleep from my eyes I smile. "Good Morning Dicky." I watch his face to see his reaction and boy was it great. At first he looked stunned, then his face started to go red and now he resembles a strawberry!! I couldn't hold my laughter and apparently it's contagious because soon he was laughing too.

That was how Alfred found us laughing at a silly nickname I made up on the spot. So he had to escort two laughing teens to breakfast. On the way I thought that it wasn't all that funny but it wasn't the name that had us happy and laughing it's the fact that after all these years we found each other. I can't help but feel like I'm forgetting something. Something important. I thought about this all through breakfast but I couldn't put my finger on it. I shrugged my shoulders finally. If I forgot then it couldn't have been important.

POV-None
"So where can I get myself one of those nifty little things." The Joker asked with a dangerous grin.

Freakshow looked at his staff and said "My staff is the only one in existence. You can't find it anywhere else."

Jokers smile got a sharp edge to it. "Oh really? I oh so wanted one for myself." He takes a step forward as Freakshow takes a cautious step back. "Do you think I can have yours?"

Freakshow looked at his staff and called his minions. Lydia, Krista, and Deamona all appeared with their animals respectively. What Freakshow didn't expect to happen though was for Harley Quinn to come up from behind him and rip the staff away from him.

"Ha ya snooze ya loose! Here ya go Mista J." She hands the staff to the Joker. "Well, what are you waiting for? Kill him!" He orders his slaves to attack. Lydia (who is somehow immune to the staffs power) flees with Freakshow before they can kill him. "Oh he got away. Oh well, come on Harley let's celebrate. Next target is the girl he wanted, I want to see what was so interesting about her."

They left the room leaving the four ghosts alone. Deamona and Krista looked at each other and left. On the inside they're both panicking. Their eyes flickering from red to violet and yellow.

I am so sorry for the delay. I have had a stressful time lately with my brother coming back home. 😫😖😣
