I do Not own Dick Grayson, and I know that throughout my story he will probably be OOC. And I am sorry for any die hard Robin fans, hence why this is a fanfic. However, I do own Alex and everything that goes with her, like her past and all that.
So yeah, welcome to my story!
"Robin Bird! Hurry up!" Alex raced to the top of the hill with a black haired boy racing behind her; laughter could be heard for the children as they ran up the hill. "Come on! I know you can run faster Dick!" The girl laughed as she reached the top of hill first, she leapt from the ground and hovered for a few seconds before she landed and looked at her friend who had caught up with her. "Good job Alex, though flying would be a bit to noticeable out here." The red head scratched the back of her head as she smiled at her friend. "What should we do today Dick? Aunt said I could hang out for a while today!" Alex took a step back and spun around with her arms in the air a few times before she stopped and looked at her friend. "Well, how about renting some roller blades and go around town before some pizza?" Dick replied as he held his hand out to Alex, she smiled before she took his hand as he led them down the hill towards the rental shop. Dick used the card that Bruce had given him to rent the roller blades. Alex's were purple and Dick's were black, once they both had them on it was a race to different places; to the mall, to the arcade, to Wayne tower, to Alex's house. They raced everywhere until they both finally got tired enough to go and get some food.
With the roller blades returned and the two of them sitting at the Pizza ship with a pepperoni pizza between them, all conversation ended till the food was demolished and each had gone through three sodas. They had exchanged stories and laughed for hours before they realized that it was starting to get dark out, and Gotham City was not a safe place at night. "Oh man! I told Aunt I would be home before it got dark!" Alex shoot out of her chair and ran out of the pizza shop, Dick was right behind her. "Let me walk you home! It's not safe!" Alex stopped and smiled at him, "Okay, just as long as you get home safe as well. I don't need Mr. Wayne showing up on door step asking where you are." There was laughter in her voice as she spoke. They started walking again, but at a fast pace, it was getting darker. Once they arrived at Alex's house she turned and hugged Dick before running up the stairs to her door. "See you later Robin Bird!" She quickly stepped inside her house and closed the door behind her, as she did she called out for her Aunt and was shocked that she didn't get an answer; her Aunt was always there.
"Aunt! Aunt are you there!?" Alex walked around their house looking in each room, when she got to the kitchen she ran over to the stove and turned off the burner that had a pot with boiling over water. 'What…Aunt would never leave the stove on. . or the door unlock..' Alex looked around the kitchen nervously, there was food out and the fridge was partly open. Alex walked over and closed it before she left the kitchen and walked over into the living room. "Aunt?" Alex wasn't just nervous, she was scared now. Deep breathes escaped the redheads lips as she walked through the living room, nothing looked out of place, nothing looked different. Alex's eyes drifted over to the stairs, 'was she upstairs?' Alex walked to the bottom of the stairs, she could feel her heart beat raise as she walked up the stairs. "Aunt?" Slowly her feet moved slowly in front of here, one by one. . . until she stepped in a liquid, Alex looked down and almost screamed, the liquid was red. . and warm.
"Aunt!" The door burst open as she ran into her Aunt's room, and was there, laying on the floor. Alex took slow steps towards her, dropping to her knees with a loud thump, before she would really understand what was happening in front of her. Her Aunt's throat had been slashing open, she would see bones. . . Alex stood up not caring that hew pants were now soaked with blood. She slowly left the room and walked down the stairs and went straight to the kitchen. Alex grabbed the phone off the wall and subconsciously called the one number she knew by heart. "Hello? Alex?" It was a male voice, Alex started to cry, "Doc…Aunt is…she…..she was killed." That was the last she spoke as her eyes closed and her mind drifted off into nothing.
