NIGHTWING'S POV

"Recognized: Nightwing B01"

I stepped out of the zeta tube and into the deserted room in front of me. I can't say that I was happy that no one was monitoring the computer, but I wasn't complaining about the peace and quiet. I'd rather not be bombarded with questions and concerns. I headed towards my 'room' at the mountain. I didn't keep anything in there, just a bunch of workout clothes, but it was still technically mine. Once I entered my room I peeled off my costume, which was now covered in blood and sticking to my body.

After that whole ordeal was over I hopped into the shower and turned it on full heat. Now one thing to understand about the mountain's showers is that superheroes, especially non-metas all get the need for a scorching hot shower, and thanks to the funding of a certain billionaire *cough* Bruce *cough* we get just that.

The hot water felt amazing on my sore muscles and did a really good job at cleaning all of my wounds. I looked at the water spiraling down the drain and it was literally blood red. It was equal parts hypnotizing and disgusting. The crimson liquid still oozing out of my cuts. I climbed out of the shower and pulled on some boxers. I looked in the mirror, it wasn't pretty. I had cuts and bruises all over my body, some of which were still bleeding. I sighed and got out my first aid kit.

Starting with the deepest cuts I cleaned and sewed my wounds, one by one. About an hour later, when I had finally finished, I pulled on a pair of sweatpants and a shirt and stepped out into the hall. I headed towards the kitchen and almost walked into Cassie.

"Hey Cassie," I sighed.

"Oh hey," she replied, "what are you doing up?"

"I could ask you the same thing," I said.

"True," she responded sheepishly. "But what are you doing up? I mean...you haven't been in the mountain in forever."

"I have been here," I said defensively, "I just come late at night, and I will be here tomorrow...or rather today to train the team."

"Really!" She screamed excitedly.

"Yeah but keep it on the down-low because it's going to be a surprise," I said. It was true, it was a surprise because I wasn't planning on training the team today.

10:00 AM EDT Mt. Justice

The team was gathered in the training room awaiting Black Canary. I could see that Cassie was having a particularity difficult time containing her excitement. I should have just kept my mouth shut. I stepped onto the training pad, behind everyone. "Who's ready to get training!" I said enthusiastically. I was met with gasps of surprise, curses, and suspicious looks. Barbra was the first to break out of her stupor.

"YOU IDIOT!" She screamed. Her outburst was soon followed by more from Jaime, Lag'aan, and Tim.

Jaime shouted, "Esse! What are you doing here?"

"Neptune's beard," said Lag'aan, "you almost gave me a heart attack. I didn't need to read Connor's mind to know what that he was thinking 'If only'.

Tim just whispered, "Batman's gonna kill you." He was probably right, but quite frankly I didn't care.
I began to lead the training exercise by having them spar with each other, without powers.

I started with Garfield and Bart. Bart started to close in on Garfield and attempted to throw a punch. Garfield blocked the punch and responded with a sweeping kick. Bart jumped over Garfield's leg and unsuccessfully tried to block the incoming punch that came with it.
At this point, I heard a loud gasp behind me and turned to see who had made it. Unfortunately for Bart he also turned and offered an opening to Garfield. Seconds later Impulse: Fail rang throughout the room. The origin of the gasp turned out to be Black Canary. She barely made a sound when she said, "Your back." She then promptly left the room, leaving everyone in a daze of shock.

"Um...okay, not bad, there has definitely been an improvement in both of you since I left. Really the only things would be to observe your enemy longer before closing in, because it allows you to predict and counteract their attacks, and Impulse don't get distracted, even when sparring in the cave."
Before I could even get out another word "Recognized: Batman 02" sounded throughout the cave. ' 'Oh crap' I thought. Batman was definitely going to kill me, even if it was against his moral code.

"Nightwing," Batman said in his low, gruff voice, "get over here now." I left the training room and cautiously proceeded to the hall.
"Where have you been?" Batman stated stoically, "You haven't reported in for a month."

"I was busy," I stated sharply.

"Doing what?" He ground out.

"Why do you care?" I asked.

"I don't," he growled.

"You never have!" I screamed.

"You have never given me a reason to!" He responded.

"Just like I never gave you a reason to adopt me, huh?" I started. He seemed slightly taken aback by this but I didn't stop. "No, you never did care quite enough. You cared enough about Jason though. Adopted him the same day you found him! Gave him the title you ripped from me because that one night I wasn't fast enough. My mother gave me that name, you had no right to take it from me and give it to someone else! You didn't even tell me about Jason for two months! I found out from Alfred! No, I never was good enough for you, if I was then you would have adopted me, especially before my 18th birthday, you know when it matters, but I guess I'll just always by your ward, the ward who just wasn't good enough to love!"

Me and my big, fat mouth.

"If that is how you feel then why don't you just leave?" Batman practically spit.

"Maybe I will!" I shouted. I walked to the zeta beams and typed in the code for Blüdhaven. 'What the HELL is wrong with you Grayson' I thought to myself as the light from the beams transported me to my warehouse/living area.

Imagine my surprise when the next day my comm rang with an urgent call for me to lead the team's mission.
