Bruce: 48 years old

Damian: 18 years old

Dick: 30 years old


The Batmobile arrives at full speed in the batcave, on board was Batman and Robin. When the car stopped, Damian got out of the car angry.

- "DAMIAN WAYNE, GET BACK HERE RIGHT NOW!" Bruce shouted, still dressed in his uniform but without the mask

- "TT, what is it now, Father?" Asked Damian, irritated, standing in front of his father.

- "I TOLD YOU TO STAY BACK! WHY DO YOU KEEP DISOBEYING ME! YOU'VE BEEN ROBIN FOR EIGHT YEARS AND YOU STILL DON'T OBEY ME!"

- "I didn't obey you because there's a 4 year old girl who was going to be killed, A 4 YEAR OLD GIRL, IF I HAD NOT OBEYED YOU, IT'S BECAUSE I HAD TO SAVE A LIFE!!"

- "DON'T TALK TO ME LIKE THAT!"

 - " I TALK TO YOU ANY WAY I WANT, DO YOU REALLY THINK BECAUSE YOU'RE THE BIG BATMAN, I'M GOING TO OBEY YOU LIKE A LITTLE DOG? IF YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU'RE DOING THIS, YOU'RE DOING. . . " 


BLAM !!!


Damian was looking at his father holding his cheek, had his father just hit him? his father just hit him because he didn't want to be the soldier his father could change as he pleased.


 - " DON'T YOU DARE TALK TO ME LIKE THAT! HOW COULD I KEEP YOU HERE SO LONG, YOU'RE LIKE YOUR MOTHER AND GRANDFATHER, JUST A KILLER THAT CAN NEVER BE REDEEMED !!! DICK SHOULD NEVER HAVE LET YOU BECOME ROBIN, HE SHOULD HAVE LET YOUR MOTHER GET YOU BACK!" Bruce screams with all his might as he hurls the most terrifying batglares at his son. . .


He still didn't trust him, after all he'd done for him, all the times he'd helped make Gotham safer, all the times he'd saved it from ambush or death. As his thoughts piled up in his head, he heard his father question Dick's choice to make him Robin, HE HAD TO DO THAT, it was the last straw. As soon as his father took a break before he started shouting again, he pulled out the escrima stick, which his brother had given him years ago, and hit Bruce in the jaw, knocking him to the ground.

- "NEVER AGAIN WILL YOU QUESTION DICK'S CHOICE, NEVER AGAIN ! DICK TRUSTED ME ENOUGH THAT I COULD BE HIS PARTNER, UNLIKE YOU!" started screaming Damian before settling down slightly.

- "I knew I shouldn't have trusted you, Dick thought we could have gotten along and respected each other, but I can see that's impossible. I don't think I'll be needing this anymore" he announced with disgust before taking Robin's Logo and dropping it in front of his father's head, still on the ground, before leaving the cave and leaving with his civilian motorbike, direction Blüdhaven.


30 minutes later


He had arrived in front of his brother's house, it was quite a big house inside Blüdhaven. He knew that his brother was too busy to protect his town because of his obligations as one of the leaders of the Young Justice, leader of the Titans, but also as a husband to Kori and father to his daughter Mar'i. He didn't know if his brother would let him take over, but he hoped he would. As soon as Damian knocked on the door of the house, his brother opened the door and looked at him with his characteristic smile.

- "Hi Dami, what are you doing here at this hour? especially in civilian clothes?" he asks, worried about the answer

- "TT, can you at least let me in Grayson, I'd rather explain to you in the warmth than outside"

- "Ah! Sorry, go home. "


As they walked into the house, they saw Kori coming down with her daughter on her shoulders. As soon as Mar'i saw Damian, she came out of her mother's shoulders and threw herself into my arms, making me fall to the ground.

- "Big brother Damian! I missed you terribly!" she shouted

- "Hey Mar'i, can you stop ditching me every time you see me?"

- "Hello Damian, I'm surprised to see you visiting us without telling us you were coming?" Kori asked

- "Sorry to come over unannounced but I wanted to talk to Grayson. " Damian said looking at his brother

- "All right, dinner's almost ready, would you like to join us?"


As Damian looked into Mar'i's puppy eyes, he dropped a faint "ok". As soon as Kori and her daughter had gone to the kitchen, Dick and Damian went to Dick and Kori's room. As he entered the room, Damian leaned against the wall while his brother looked at him while running his hands through his hair.


- "You've grown and matured since the last time we saw each other. " he'd say before he sat on his bed

- "TT, stop it Grayson, you know the last time you visited me was five years ago. " Damian replied with a slight smile as he thought back on that year but he wiped it away as he remembered why he came here.

- "Damian, I know you didn't come all the way to Blüdhaven to see me without a good reason. "


There was a long silence in the room before Damian replied

- "Dick, I want to ask you a great favor. I would, I would like to become the next Nightwing"

To say that Dick was astonished by this request would be a sweet euphemism, he was completely speechless. His brother wanted to become Nightwing, his dear brother, who told him he would become the next Batman, wants to become the Nightwing of Blüdhaven. He knew something was wrong with Damian and the only thing that could make him want to become Nightwing was a fight.

- "Damian, what happened with Bruce?"

- « ........................... »

- "Please Dami, I just want to know"

- " . . . . . . . , TT, okay!"


The explanation lasted a good 10 minutes and Richard could only rub his eyes before getting up and taking out a crate containing the two versions of Nightwing's costume (DCAU costume: son of Batman and Teen titans costume: Judas Contract). As he handed the box to Damian, he put his hand on his shoulder and gave him a proud smile.

- "I'm sure you'll do a very good job as Nightwing, Dami, and I'm also very proud of your decision"

- "Thank you, Father" Damian mumbled, thinking his brother hadn't heard him.


Luckily for him, the first Nightwing had heard him and held him in his arms. While they were heading into the kitchen for dinner, journalists were talking about an attack on scarecrow men in a jewellery store. The two brothers looked at each other before Damian went into the room to get dressed. 


- "Daddy, where's Big Brother Damian going?" asked Mar'i watching her brother leave


- "Well, my dear, your brother is finally going to jump into the air in complete freedom"
