To say life was confusing to you after your return would be an understanding. When Bruce brought you back to the Manor, everyone was there to surprise you with a party. This ended up being a bad idea after you slammed Tim through a table on instinct. That quickly ruined the mood before you realized what you did.

Y/N: Uh, sorry?

The party was resumed after Tim assured everyone he was fine, throwing in he probably deserved it. You then spent the next 2 hours talking to everyone who welcomed you back. They all treated you like an old friend even though you didn't really know them. The videos only showed you what happened, it didn't give you the emotional connections they had. In your mind he was still Red even if you accepted that you were Y/N. It was an odd situation that you couldn't explain.

After the second hour of being "reunited" with your "friends", you managed to escape to the balcony for some fresh air. Things were never going to go back to the way they thought it was. You weren't the same person.

This became evident when you were given the ok to go on patrol a week later. You couldn't use the Red X suit since you were no longer a "villain" so Bruce had to have a new one made for you.

Y/N: Not bad.

As you looked down at the costume you entertained the idea of eventually becoming Batman. For now Beyond will have to do.

Terry: So looks like I'm gonna be your partner. You're gonna need a alias.

You gave him a strange look.

Y/N: I'm Beyond.

Terry crossed his arms.

Terry: No, I'm Beyond. I got the costume and everything.

This eventually lead to a fight which Bruce and Tim had to break up.

Y/N: FUCK YOU EDGE LORD! I AIN'T GONNA BE ROBIN!

Terry: NEITHER AM I!

Patrol didn't go better. Tim had to step in to stop you from beating a thug to a death. You had spotted him robbing some nerdy looking guy and stepped in. You had already slammed one's head into the brick wall earning a few flying teeth and a lot of blood. You were about to snap his spine in two when Tim slammed you against the wall.

Red Robin: WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!

You pushed him off of yourself and pointed to the thug.

Y/N: I'm cleaning up the trash.

Tim: That's not how we do things here! You know that!

Y/N: You don't like the way I do things then do something about it.

You left him in the alley and continued your patrol. That got you into a heated argument with Bruce. The fight reminded him of a certain outlaw he knew. You ended up spending the rest of the night on the roof to get away from everyone.
