Hey guys! So here's chapter one. I hope you all enjoy!


It was a nice day at Wayne manor. The sun was out, the birds were singing, and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. The manor was very quiet. Nothing but the chirping of the birds outside could be heard. Bruce, Barbara, and Alfred were gone to investigate a huge drug dealership. Meanwhile, Tim and Dick got to housesit. Or more of manorsit.

Grunts and shouts could faintly be heard through the door that led to the batcave, due to the two young heroes training. Sweat dripped down Tim's face and muscular torso as he blocked a blow from Dick. The two had been doing hand to hand combat for nearly two hours now, neither of them slowing down.

"Good," Dick said as Tim blocked his blow. "But try to be less predictable."

"Like this?" Tim quickly turned around, backhandspringed towards Dick, and jumped, spinning in the air, and kicking Dick right in the chest.

Dick took a few steps back as Tim's foot made contact, his toned chest heaving up and down, and smiled. "Just like that." He took a few deep breaths before continuing. "Let's call it quits for today."

Tim stood up straight, that proud smirk across his face. "What? Did I hurt you?" He asked in a mocking tone.

Dick just smiled and shook his head. "You did good today." Truth was that last kick had stung a little bit. Not that he would ever admit it. "Why don't we do some weight training. Then we'll go on patrol."

"Ok."

Tim and Dick walked into the weight room, grabbed towels, and got started. Tim started with elevated pushups. He went all the way down so that his face nearly hit the floor, and pushed back up. His chiseled muscles bulged in his arms and chest. Meanwhile, Dick had started on some pullups. They were the fastest, and tightest pullups that you will ever see. Every muscle in his body was flexed, making him look like he was on steroids.

After about an hour and a half of hard weight training, the two took showers, got into their uniforms, and left for patrol. The night was dark as clouds covered the stars, and only let the moon give the faintest amount of light. The two young heroes paced on opposite side of a roof, overlooking Gotham. The city was quiet, which made it easier to listen.

The first few hours were pretty eventless, which was extremely rare for Gotham. Another couple hours passed, when Tim heard something in one of the alleys. He walked to the edge of the building, and peered over. Dick walked over, and looked out next to Tim.

"Did you hear it too?" Tim whispered.

"Yeah," Dick replied.

They stood there in complete silence for a few moments, until a loud thud came from behind them. The two spun around to face one of Gotham's biggest, baddest, meanest criminals. Bane. Tim pulled out two batarangs while Dick pulled out his escrima sticks. The two young heroes got into a fight stance, and without saying a word, bane attacked.

The first half of the fight went to Robin and Nightwing. The two fought with such a ferocity that would have even put Batman to the test. But Bane isn't one to be taken down by two 'kids'. The longer the fight continued, the more powerful Bane seemed to get. Bane turned the tables, and soon he was defeating them.

Tim decided to try his new move on Bane, (the one he had used on Dick earlier), but somehow Bane saw it coming. He grabbed Tim's foot when the young hero was in mid air, and flung him across to the other side of the roof. Tim landed with a hard thud, and rolled into one of the vent boxes, slamming his ribs into the corner. Meanwhile, Dick attacked with his two sticks, deciding to stay on the ground. But, once again, Bane saw it coming, and threw Dick across the roof so that he landed next to Tim, who was completely knocked out.

Things were getting fuzzy for Dick, and stars danced infront of him. He tried to push himself up, but his arms wouldn't work. He could hear the heavy footsteps of Bane coming towards him, and tried with all his might to at least sit up. But nothing worked. The most he could do was roll around on the ground.

Bane's shadow was soon cast over Dick. Dick looked up to see a horrible grin across the criminal's face. bane stood over the young hero for a moment, using intimidation to scare him. Of course it didn't work. Dick was too use to this, so nothing really scared him anymore.

"Goodnight, bird boy," Bane said, his deep voice sounding like a clap of thunder.

Bane punched Dick hard in the face, knocking the young hero out completely.
