Loneliness
Dick was grateful that Bruce took him in and all, but he got lonely there was only so much an eight-year-old can do around this huge manor. Sure, he could always contact Barbara, however, Richard wanted someone to talk to about his past and present with all the crime fighting. Once again, there is Speedy, although Roy is too old to really connect to currently. Robin felt lonely and depressed sitting in the Batcave watching his mentor type with a speed to rival Flash on the Batcomputer.
Suddenly, the computer flashed a light blue indicating a call from one of the league, it was Flash.
"Hey, Bats! Can you and Robin come over to Central I want you guys to meet someone." Flash said bouncing with excitement.
"I already know." Batman said in his famous monotone voice.
"What how- Nevermind of course you do, you're Batman. Don't tell Robin." He said and the monitor turned off Flash's picture leaving with it.
"Who is it, Bruce?" The young hero asked.
"Come on, Robin." Was all he said walking to the zeta.
As they entered the zeta the light engulfed them as their vision came back walking out of the old phone booth. Robin wasn't used to the zeta yet as he felt dizzy from the transportation.
Batman tapped his communicator as Flash popped on the screen once again.
"Bats, You came!"
"Where do you want to meet?" Batman asked trying to cut the conversation with the Scarlet Speedster.
"Oh yeah, um how about on the rooftop on Silva Street, the address for the building is 206."
Without saying anything Batman turned off his com and turned to the boy wonder.
"Let's go." Robin nodded in confirmation.
The street was relatively close as they grappled up to the old apartment building. Of course, it was nighttime as Flash knew Batman would never come out in the day, especially in another city.
Flash was just standing there just begging to be snuck up on, so Batman did.
When Flash turned around he looked like he was going to speed out of there in a break record speed.
"God Bruce, please do not do that."
Robin looked at his mentor and to anyone else it was his normal scowl, yet Robin could see a slight smirk. Batman gets annoyed by Flash all the time, Robin gets he scares him to get back at him and cause it is fun.
The first partner felt a breeze of wind and someone behind him making his training kick in. Punching behind him the figure fell to the ground with a yelp.
Robin looked down to see mini Flash only with more yellow and accents of red.
"Dude, that was so not cool." Kid said as he rubbed his chest where Robin punched him.
Behind them, Batman gave a small smirk as Flash looked at the two with curiosity.
"Sorry, but who are you? Flash boy?."
"I am Kid Flash! With that logic is your name Batboy." He ranted and crossed his arms.
"Well, Flash Kid it is nice to meet you, I am Robin." Robin held out his hand as Kid looked at it cautiously.
"It is Kid Flash, and is this a trick do you have a bat buzzer or something?"
"Nope." The eight-year-old answered cheerfully.
He slowly reached out and shook hands with the younger hero.
"Cool, I just met the first partner!" He yelled while pumping his fist in the cool nighttime air.
"Cool, I just met an idiot!" Robin playfully mocked.
"Dude!" Was the only complaint.
Robin started cackling that made the other young hero shiver.
"Is that a laugh?" Wally asked.
"Yep, pretty asterous, huh."
"What?" Poor Wally was looking confused.
"You know opposite of disaster, hence asterous.
"Okay...well my name is Wallace West, but you can call me Wally."
"Like where's Wally?"
"You mean where's Waldo." Wally informed.
"Found him." Robin said pointing at Kid.
"You are a little troll, we should get together to prank."
"With Speedy!" Rob added.
In the back Flash looked pale and Batman stoic.
"By the way, I am Richard, but you can call me Dick." Wally looked at him in disbelief then started laughing.
"Robin, you are grounded and will receive a lecture from both Agent A and I. You are to not reveal your identity. We have been through this if you tell it again the consequences will be harsher." Batman grounded out making Kid nervous.
"Sorry B, and bye for now Waldo." He grinned at the redhead.
"See you soon, Rob!"
Later on, Dick and Wally became inseparable as they pranked the league and soon Roy helped.
Wally saved Richard from his loneliness.
