Jason Todd's/Red Hood's POV

I am in the WE building, beyond annoyed. I don't understand why I have to babysit a bunch of annoying teenagers. Bruce tried to make the excuse of keeping them safe while Joker was on the loose, but that didn't mean the head of security of an international company should be following some stupid tourists.

On top of that, my little sister's birthday was coming up. It was barely a week away, but I was already feeling the guilt, she would have turned 15 this year. I remembered how a six-year-old Marinette would go on and on about when she became a teenager.

//Flashback, approximately 9 years ago//

"Jay-Jay!" A small half-asian girl with midnight hair exclaimed, her bright blue eyes shining with excitement as her hands shot up, asking to be held. 

"Alright, alright, jeez I just got back, pixie! And you're getting too old for this! A fourteen-year-old me picked up the far too light girl, balancing her on my hip as I fished the granola bar out of my back pocket.

 "Are you hungry?" Marinette shook her head 'no', pushing the food towards me.

"I ate yesterday, it's your turn." Marinette pouted but took the food anyways.

"Wanna share?" She offered, I shook my head. I insisted she eat, and eventually, she did.

"Now I have to go back." Marinette frowned.

"I just came to bring your food. I'll be back soon, see you tomorrow." I gave my little honorary sister a hug before tucking her into bed, using both her and my blanket.

"When I'm big like you, I'm gonna make you stay!" I chuckled softly before tucking in again, on the inside I was proud. She was so smart, she'd grow up to become an amazing person, I just had to make sure she lived long enough to do it.

//Flashback ends// 

I never saw Marinette again, that was the night Batman found me and took me in. My life has changed so much since that night, if only I hadn't been so stupid and told Bruce about Marinette, I was convinced he would have taken her in too. But now it was too late, apparently, she'd been adopted by some couple in Europe but the case was sealed, and without telling Tim or Bruce I'd never get my hands on them.

I was pulled out of my thoughts as Dick approached me, strangely not at work. "What?"

 Dick seemed to get more and more excited as walked with me. "Where are you going, Jay?"

 I glared at my brother, shoving him off. "I have to go babysit some french class that Bruce invited," I grumbled.

 "Hey, you never know--it could be fun!" I just rolled my eyes at his golden retriever-like mentality. We turned a corner and boarded an elevator. 

"What are you even doing here, aren't you supposed to be working?" I asked, annoyed. 

"Gordon gave me the day off!" He exclaimed. 

"Great, wanna take my place?" I ask. Dick looked at his watch before responding.

"No, trust me, you're the better person for the job." I was confused by what that meant, but I shrugged it off and looked at my own watch which is telling me I'm late. The elevator doors opened. 

"Whatever," I huffed as I walked to the lobby, but Dick just followed me as he messed with his phone. Odd. I still can't believe I'm doing this, I groan internally. I sigh. Let's just get this over with...
