Damian woke up, Kamilah laying next to him. He takes his hand and brushes it through her long hair. She shifts towards Damian more but doesn't wake up. He bushes the blanket off himself before stumbling off of the bed. He placed the blanket over Kamilah. Then he leaned down and planted a kiss on her temple. He walks into the kitchen, where May was sitting with a coffee reading a book. May turned her head towards Damian. She smiled brightly at the teen, before getting up and walking over to the sink. "Hey Dames, what are you doing up so early?" Damian sat down in the chair May was in, and rubbed his eyes. "I'm planning on going out into Gotham today" Damian said. May gave Damian a confused look.
"Damian, I thought you were hiding from your family" May asked, wash out her mug. Damian nodded "I'll wear a hood and stay away from cameras." May bit her lower lip, but let the topic go. "Whatcha going into town for" She asked. Damian grabbed a banana from the fruit bowl on the counter. "Probably just go get a new skateboard, maybe check out a piercing place." Damian shrugged, not really sure about his plans. It has been about a month since he got his ears pierced last, so he wanted to get the top of his ear done. Damian unpeeled his banana and started eating.
Nico came out, wearing some Robin pajama's. "Dede" He said, walking up to Damian. Nico hugged Damian's leg. He looked up at Damian, and Damian knew what he wanted. Damian reached down and tucked his hands under Nicos armpit. He pulled the child up into his lap. Nico reached up and played with Damians sweater strings.
When Damian finished eating, he put Nico down and went back to the room. Kamilah was still asleep at this time, so Damian just changed. He put on a large AC/DC shirt and some baggy sweat pants. He grabbed a black beanie and put it over his head. He put on a spell, to his all of his scars. Damian looked in the mirror and was ready to go.
Damian grabbed his Air force ones and head out the door. He started just walking aimlessly around, before he decided to go to the piercing place. He walked by a many places. Most of them brought back memories, some that he didn't want to relive. He stopped looking at his surroundings, just starting straight in-front of him. He finally made it into the piercing store after 15 minutes.
He looked at the sign and saw they did tattoos as well. He wasn't really sure if he wanted a tattoo. He decided to say fuck it and get it. He wanted something sentimental but also nice looking. He looked through the internet and found one. It was a snake wrapped around a rose. He loved the tattoo, and decided to get it. He decided to get his helix pierced twice on his right ear.
Damian walked into the chair, and waited. He got his upper ear pierced first, and it didn't hurt. He decided to get the tattoo on his inner arm on his left side. The tattoo artist had tattoos all over his body. Damian liked it, but he didn't have the courage to get that many.
When the tattoo was done, Damian loved it. Damian wondered if you would be able to see his self-harm scars through it. It wasn't too big on his arm, it was only about 5 inches. Damian walked out of the parlour feeling better. He couldn't keep the smile off of his face if he tried.
He decided to take a shortcut through the sketchy part of Gotham. Crime mainly happened here, but it didn't bother Damian. He just kept walking. He heard yelling in one of the warehouses, and paused for a second. Damian shook his head, he should keep walking. He isn't Robin anymore, he doesn't save crime.
But, he still was a good person. So, he walked in. Nobody was by the door, but what he did see was a girl. She had blonde hair and brown eyes. She was sitting in a corner, curled up. She had tear stains on her cheeks. Damian tilted his head, before walking up to her. He took off his spell, revealing his scars.
The girl looked up at him, blinking away the tears in her eyes. She looked down at her knees, clearly feeling ashamed. "Hey" Damian said. The girl just kept staring at her knees. After a little, she said "Hi."
Damian smiled slightly at her. "What are you doing here?" Damian was concerned for the girl, she shouldn't be here. The girl sniffed, "Don't you know who I am." The girl just stated.She threw her head up, trying to glare at Damian. She stopped though, when her eyes landed on his neck. The cut, the J. She knew those scars. She's seen the video. She looked up at his face. The scar through his right eye. She wanted to throw up.
"Your- your Robin" She stated. Damians tensed at that, shoulders straightening up. He just shook his head. "Not Robin anymore" Damian said. He knelt down in-front of her. She seemed shocked, maybe a little scared. She took her hand out and put it on Damians neck. He had a pulse, he was breathing.
"No, No Robins dead" The girl said, shaking her head. "I saw, I saw the video" She repeated. Damian reached out and held her hand down. "Who are you" Damian asked. The girl looked up. "You don't know?" Damian shook his head.
"I'm Lucy, The Jokers daughter"
