So, I got this idea from the thought of vampires, and then the book Maximum ride. This is basically an AU where the Batfamily are all mystical creatures, and Tim got separated from his family when he was 5.

This is also the ages for all the characters

Tim: 10

Damian: 12

Jason: 15

Dick: 17

Disclaimer: I do not own DC Nation or Maximum Ride. Enjoy!

Tim POV

I stayed in my dark corner, crouched in the darkness alone. Blood coated my hands and my lips as I tried to lick it off. It wasn't good blood, after all, it was the blood of a rat. But nobody missed rats unless they were pets, and no one would leave a pet rat on the streets. Besides, rats only lived for a few years, and even fewer years since people stepped on them and killed so much.

Once I couldn't lick the blood off anymore, I cleaned myself off from the water in a small water puddle. Then I picked up the rat that had two puncture holes in its small neck. I didn't like killing anything, but I knew I had to. However, I didn't like it when the bodies went to waste. And if I had just left them there, people who notice the pile of rats.

I walked down the alley to a trash can that had a cat on top of it. The cat didn't hiss and glare at me like it would to a normal person. Why would he? I gave him enough rats for him and his kittens he was hiding behind the trash can.

I put the rat on top of the trash can lid and he took it, jumping behind the trashcan after giving me a nod. Maybe I imagined that part, but I don't think I did. I mean, he's done it almost every time I've given him a rat.

My eyes darted around as I left the alley, my baggy hoodie the only thing comforting me. "You know, most people don't kill rats and give them to cats." I heard a voice above me say.

My breath caught in my throat and looked up at the roof ledge of the building next to me and saw a teenager in a leather jacket and a red helmet. Not good.

I took a few steps back before turning around and running away from him. I knew what would happen if I got caught and he told the police what happened. Ra's would find me, and I wouldn't be any closer to finding out what happened to me 5 years ago.

He caught up to me quickly, using a speed that wasn't human. Wait, wasn't human. Was he like me? "Calm down, kid, I'm not going to hurt you. I'm not going to tell the police either." He said, grabbing onto the back of my collar.

"I don't care." I said, trying to squirm out of his grip.

His grip only tightened and I glared up at him. "What's your name, kid?" He asked suddenly, looking over my face.

"Why should I tell you?" I asked suspiciously.

"Because I might just decide to take you to the police." He said, glaring at me through the helmet.

I glared back, making sure to keep the skin that peaked from between his sleeve and gloves didn't touch my own skin. Just as I opened my mouth to answer, a burglary happened across the street.

He cursed under his breath and set me down quickly. "You better stay here kid, because if I find out you left and I find you, I will make you regret it." He said, glaring at me before leaving.

"I've heard worse threats." I whispered quietly before running away from the alley.

This time I did use my real speed, going straight to my place in a matter of seconds. Well, my place wasn't much of a place. Really it was more of a room with a lot of windows and curtains. At least, that's what I liked to called the bell tower I lived in.

The bell tower belonged to a church that was still used, but the bell tower wasn't. The bell had rusted to a gross coppery color, and no human had come up there ever since. No one seemed to notice the curtains I had put up to block the gaps in the walls to stop the wind from coming in either, which was weird.

When I did make it to my place, I looked around the cramped room. I had managed to pull a cot in here and got a thin blanket from a charity place offering things to kids.

The curtains were torn at the ends, but were there enough to keep the wind out. Books littered the room in stacks and a wooden board hid the hole that the bell rope used to hang out of.

Tonight was a really cold night, the chill still coming in, even if I had the curtains. "At least the bats aren't flying every where tonight." I muttered to myself as I sat onto my thin cot.

I took off my hoodie, and then the same with my shirt. I looked over my shoulder to look at my red, black, and golden colored wings.

There were only a couple of things I knew since the past 5 years, but I did know I wasn't born with these wings.

What I knew, was that I was taken away from my family, probably around the age of 5. How did I know this? The man who took me, Ra's Al Ghul, told me.

After he told me that, he experimented on me with bird DNA, making me grow these wings. So yeah, I didn't like him very much.

I laid down on my side, careful not to lay down on my wings. With a final sigh, I went to sleep.

Jason POV

"Dick, you don't get it, that kid looked just like him. Same blue eyes, same black hair, even the same pale skin." I said, shaking my head.

"How do we know he was the same kid, Jason? I mean, Tim isn't human." Dick said with a look of pity and grief in his eyes.

"Because I found him sucking the blood of a fucking rat, Dick. Tim didn't like taking blood from humans before, and 5 years wouldn't change that." I said, glaring down at the ground.

Dick seemed stunned, his eyes wide with shock. Good, maybe he believed me know. "But.. I mean... how?! We searched Gotham every where for him! And now he suddenly shows up? It just doesn't make any sense." Dick said, surprise still evident on his face.

"I'm not saying it makes sense, I'm just saying it was him. It has to be him. And if it's not it's his fucking clone." I snapped, looking up at him.

Dick thought about it for a while, then nodded. "Okay, you and me will stay on the look out for him on patrol. But we can't tell Dad or Damian. Dad wouldn't believe us then tell us to stop, and Damian would tell Dad." Dick said.

"Agreed. And once we do find him?" I asked.

"Call each other. Then... I guess we just hope for the best." Dick said with a shrug.

We both nodded and went back to the cave. I just hoped we found him again.

I know this is a short chapter, but I promise my next one will be longer. Until then, review!
