~Percy POV~
I accepted the sword and adjusted my grip, before backing away from Damian. I automatically went in to my fighting stance that I had learned at camp and from years of fighting monsters. Of course getting in to a professional stance probably wouldn't go un noticed by the Wayne boy.

So I tweaked my arms a little just enough to show I knew how but not enough to give away that I was trained professionally. if he was going to figure out their secret then he would need Intel which requires a strong enough bond which each of these boys. if there's one thing I've picked up about Damian so far is that to get along with him you must earn a part of his respect and it's just my luck that this particular kid loved sword fighting.

You may be wondering why I asked him to teach me to wield a sword if i already knew how. Well it wasn't just any sword you see most Greek swords are thick and jagged but Damian was using a Japanese katana usually used for assassinations. Hey if I'm going to be in this new dimension might as well learn a couple things.

Damian watched me and I could see slight surprise speck his features before being covered by the usual void of emotion. He circled me nodding at the angles my body was turned I could see a faint smile edging on his face.

"You know Jackson with a couple years of training you could become an excellent sword fighter"

I smiled and said "really!?"

He nodded then said "okay I'm going to go easy on you but I want you to show me what you've got in hand to hand before moving on to the katanas."

We went to the sparring mats and he started circling me saying "don't worry Jackson I won't got to hard on you" with a grin.

Than he charged at me, I side stepped the stack easily. Damian turned around and ran at me again, but this time he aimed his footing to almost as if he was going to tap me in the left. So when he got to me I leaned to the right this time only for him to have already been going that way and push me down in to the ground.

Damian was about to hold me down when I jumped up my demigod reflex's kicking in and kicked him in the head. Damian not suspecting the well aimed attack fell to the ground, his head smacking on to the mat with a loud "thunk!"

I went to Damian side to make sure he was okay, but when I got to his side he swept my legs and jumped on top of me. Holding down my wrist and leaning over me he than asked

"Yield?"

I kicked him in the stomach and said

"Never"

With a goofy smirk on my face Damian then started to circle and I joined him. We were both circling the mats waiting for the other to move. Damian once again ran at me but I ran back at him jumping up and using his shoulder to get over him

Sep I didn't get all the way over him, nope instead he grabbed my leg and slammed me down on the ground. He hit me in the face and on instinct I hit him back in a matter of second we were both fighting Gruesomely. What had started out as a friendly spar had turned in to a fight that the other both wanted to win.

Percy thought he was doing alright until he was pinned once again, but this time Damian was using Percy's small body as an advantage and slammed his fist in to Percy's face.

Percy stopped struggling feeling a little drowsy and went limp under neath the other boy.

~Damians POV~

Someone yanked me off my offender and threw me across the street. But when I got up I realized I wasn't in Gotham fighting another assassin sent by my mother. No I was at the Wayne manor gym standing on the practice mat, I saw Drake leaning over a small boy. That's when I realized the small boy was the kid father had taken in for three months.

I looked down at my hands to see they had red covering them, I flipped them over for injury's but found non. My face stung and when I put my hand on it I winced. Drake looked back at me as he scooped the seven year old in his arms and rushed out of the room.

That's when it hit me, it wasn't an assassin, no it had been Jackson. My heart dropped I was going all out on the small boy, I looked back at the spot he once laid now covered in crimson blood. I turned to look at the direction Drake had run off in before getting up and rushing after them.

As I ran out of the gym I silently vowed to make it up to the little brat. Because I will tell you it took me longer than suspects to take him down, and I wasn't going easy.

I just hope Percy can forgive me.

~Tim's POV~

After breakfast, we had decided to play hide and seek with Percy so here am thrifty minutes later still looking for the munchkin. I was about to give up when heard the sound of fighting coming from the gym. It was probably just Damian training again, but I had to check anyway.

I was not prepared to see Damian punching something or someone on the sparring mats. We got close I realize that it was Percy underneath the demon. I sprinted to the sparring ant and through Damian off of the small seven-year-old boy.

I crouched down and could see bruises already forming on the small kids face, his eyes were barely open but he looked dazed from blood loss. I looked back at Damian to see the shock written all over his face, I gave him a look knowing this would not go in mentioned to the rest of the family.

I lifted the boy up bridal style and rushed out of the room with the small boy safely secured in my arms. I ran through the manor, but couldn't find Alfred anywhere.

I looked down at the small boy in my arms blood flowing from a gash in the back of his head, before making a split-second decision and running into the study. Twisting clock and defending in to the dark cave underneath the Wayne manor.
