5 hours pass by , and it's 9:30 pm. Freya accidentally drifted off to sleep on the couch , in the living room , waiting for Bruce and Jason. But , her sleep is interfered from Alfred who gently shakes her shoulder
Alfred- Ms. Powell , wake up.
Freya moans softly as she wakes up and stretches. She flutters her one eye open as she rubs the right one with her hand. She notices Alfred's expression is somber and sits up , fully awake.
Freya- Yes , Alfred ?
Alfred- Master Bruce is here.
Freya- Really ?
Alfred nods. Freya gets up off the couch and goes down bro the bat cave and when she sees Bruce she becomes happy and rushes up to him.
Freya- Bruce !
Bruce turns around and looks at her.
Freya- You're okay !
Freya tackles him into a hug. Her brace lasted several seconds before she pulls away and looks left and right .
Freya- Where's Jason ?
Bruce stayed silent . Freya's happy expression falters into an ambiguous stare because of no response.
Freya- Bruce ? Where's Jason ?
Without saying a word , Bruce takes out Robin's damaged domino mask and holds it out in front of her in the palm of his hand. The young girl's chocolate brown eyes widened in horror as she gasps before she hesitantly takes the mask out of his hand.
Bruce- I'm sorry , Freya. He didn't make it.
There are several protests of denial running through her mind. Like :
This can't be happening !
Tell me this isn't really happening !
It can't be true !
Freya's eyes started to sting as she feels this pang in her chest. And soon , tears started to form in her eyes.
Freya- No. It's not true. Please tell me it's not true !
Bruce's face says it all. He wasn't messing with her. If anyone thinks he would play a horrid prank like this , they're wrong. Bruce is brutally honest in some way. But , she didn't want to believe it. Freya then suddenly bursts into tears as she bangs on his chest multiple times.
Freya- No ! No ! That can't be true ! Tell me he's alive ! Tell me he's alive ! Bruce ! You failed to protect him , didn't you ? Didn't you ?!
Bruce remained in solemn silence as he silently pulls Freya into a hug. But , Freya tries to escape out of it with anger , disbelief , and sadness. But , it didn't take long for Freya's anger and denial to quickly alleviate by now grief as she gave into his embrace , sobbing her eyes out.
Freya- ( Sniffles ) Why ? Why did he have to leave ? Why ? Why ?
Freya continues to cry in Batman's embrace , mourning for her one and only love who has died young.
