Damian wore his uniform, all black with white long coat with a hood. He also wearing the fox mask, just in case everything went so wrong.

- Damian, I will go with you if you need---

- I'm fine, beloved. I have decided.

Jay blinked.

- Decide what?

- I'm not gonna hiding anymore. I will face with them, with no mask.

He said with an emotionless voice, but Jay could feel the pain inside it.

Damian wrapped his arms around Jay.

- Take care of Ayah while I'm gone, beloved.

----=----=----=----=----=

Damian walked through the Hall of Justice. He sighed loudly.

"Why does it have to be today? When I was about to take a small break?"

He shook his head. He must focus.

----=----=----=----=----=

Damian didn't expect to be test by the league. But he relieved that the league didn't know who he really was.

He had a mission with the man he used to call 'father'.

Why? What have I done? Why did you treat me like this?

I have giving up everything. I betrayed my own mother to your side. And you all just abandoned me.

Why?

He wanted to scream.

----=----=----=----=----=

The mission went smooth. The league released Damian soon. He decided to pay a visit to an old friend.

Raven.

They texted to each other, decided to meet at a coffee shop called "Moonlight".

----=----=----=----=----=

- You became softer, aren't you?

Raven smiled. Damian blushed.

- No! No way! I'm not! I'm suppose to be...

He voice became smaller and smaller.

- I guess that is your answer.

She took a sip of her iced coffee. Damian groaned.

----=----=----=----=----=

Damian missed his brothers so badly, especially Grayson.

He missed everyone so badly.

- Why did you join the league?

Damian mumbled, barely loud.

- Just play their rules, so they would stay out of my way.

Constantine smoked.

Damian always hate that smell. But he quiet enjoy spending time with the British man.

They just keep quiet, but not an arkward silent. They just simply enjoy their company, although they never admit it.

----=----=----=----=----=

- Oh Dami, you're back. I was just about---

Jay hadn't finish the sentence, Damian suprisingly hugged him.

Jay quiet. Tenderly hugged Damian back.

----=----=----=----=----=

- Ugh...

Ayah stood behind the door, groaned. Seeing both of her new gardians (?) Being so sweet, disgusting sweet.

She did not mind to see them like this in future.

----=----=----=----=----=

Today, the league fought with a demon strong nearly as Trigon.

Jay was injured badly because he took the hit for Damian.

Damian wanted to scream his beloved name, but he couldn't.

In the anger, Damian spoke:

- I will kill you!

His anger turned into flame, burned the demon. The demon did not die, but disapeared into the darkness.

He couldn't breathing, he fainted away. His mask dropped.

Everyone was speechless. Batman eyes were wide and hand was shaking. Bruce opened his mouth, but he didn't speak anything.

Before he fall into the ground, Jay caught him with his injured hand, protective shielded him to the rest of league.

- I think you owe us an explanation.

Hal spoke.

----=----=----=----=----=

Damian was worn out. He sleeping peacefully in the medical bed, at the Watch Tower.

Jay hold Damian's hand. His hand was covereed in scars from the training, but it still very soft.

- One year ago, we fought with a fantasy creature called "fire pheonix". He trapped that creature into his body. When he get so mad, the creature will try to get out. That's why he could use so much power at our last fight.

Jay's voice sounded emotionless.

Batman ran his hand through his youngest son.

His son grew of with Talia's face, the Wayne jawline. His body was slender but fit enough.

- DON'T TOUCH HIM!

Jay gritted his teeth. His eyes glare was so cold.
