"Deathstoke wants me as his apprentice"

Those words flooded the kitchen into an cold dark silence, nobody daring to break it or even move a muscle as the team of superheroes who dealt with the worst of villains and had dealt with the most shocking secrets stared in pure disbelief at the eldest Wayne, who looked like he wanted nothing more than to sink into the floor.

The kid had got to be joking, that or he was clearly very delusional, which was probably very likely given the evidence the last few days had provided.

"Do you really expect us to believe that" Artemis laughed the only member of the team who was not still staring in pure shock at the eldest Wayne and was now laughing at him. There was no way in hell this spoiled brat is wanted by Deathstroke as an apprentice, Artemis knew Slade Wilson, well nobody really knows that walking Arsenal, but what she really meant was that she had met him on many occasions whilst she was still with her father and although she never said a singular word to him, if there's one thing she knew it was that Deathstroke the terminator loathed working with others. Every time anyone would even hint at a suggested partnership, Wilson would immediately shut the idea down by either ignoring the person or brutally murdering them. It was a 50/50 chance really.

"I understand it's hard to believe" Dick began finally moving his head from the kitchen floor to stare into the eyes of his laughing teammate

"Hard to believe!" Artemis laughs pointing an accusing finger towards the Wayne "Look at you, your a small, skinny, surprisingly handsome, rich, spoilt, brat who had probably never had to lift a finger in his life, since his daddy got him everything he wanted"

The second she stains those few words Dick entire body language changed drastically until he didn't even look like the happy joyful boy anymore, his head snapped up to meet the glare of his teammate with a darker and much scarier glare
"He is not my dad and you have no idea what I've been through, what any of us have been through" Dick growled in a voice none of them had heard from the unusually happy boy before, it was dark and cruel, making the team flinch at the harshness of his words, Artemis had clearly overstepped a boundary.

A cloud of darkness surrounded the Wayne as his entire joyful personality was drained from him as he carried on glaring at Artemis who looked purely terrified.

Seeing the drastic change in his brothers attitude Damian walked over to him and gently grabs his hand, shocking Dick out of his moment of rage, Damian never made the first move. Damian knew of his brothers darkness, no matter how hard Dick tried to bury it beneath the forced joyful expression and pathetic jokes, Damian was one of the few people who knew of the darkness that inhabited his older brother and he also knew just how dangerous Dick could become when he let the darkness take over, and so did Slade Wilson.

"The same small, skinny, rich spoilt brat managed to take down the majority of your team" Jason yelled in his brothers defence trying to take the attention of his elder brother

"He took us by surprise!" Artemis yelled back finally turning her glare to Jason who just smirk sadistically back at her, who did she honestly think she was to come into their home and start causing trouble, Jason thought angrily to himself as he tried desperately to keep his calm uncaring appearance and not snap like Dick.

"Artemis" Kaldur finally spoke up turning to look at the blonde "There is no use in denying what happened, Richard took us down, therefore proving his has incredible league worthy training, we should be questioning him on where he got his training from not denying the fact it happened" Kaldur explained calmly his voice dragging the rest of his team from there shock to look expectantly at the Wayne's

"That's classified" all the Wayne's and Barbara answered at the same time, like a group of robots all programmed the same

"Well that wasn't suspicious" Wally mused making Dick smile "If you asked me I would say there some sort of weird assassin clones"
