AN: I searched fanfics about Robin with wings and found very few, so I decided to add to the list!
Background: Robin is Armaros, a Grigori angel, you can look them up. There are two hundred Grigori and they're called the Watchers, basically they looked out for the humans until God found out that they had been teaching the humans things only angels should know, so he banished them from heaven. Armaros taught man about spells and enchantment, he was called the 'cursed one' because of his use of magic and child-like trickery.
Summary: 'What if I told you I wasn't human?' Robin is a Grigori angel, a fallen Watcher of man. What happens when Klarion uses an angel's magic and Robin finally shows his wings?
Disclaimer: I do not own Young Justice or the idea of the Grigori, it all belongs to DC and the writer of the Book of Enoch, blah, blah, blah…
What if I told you I wasn't human? What if I told you I wasn't even supposed to be here? Would you hate me? Would you turn your back on me? Would you try and kill me?
Every fifty years I die and am reborn into a new family, but I always remember what my sin has caused me. I have never told anyone in any of my lives of my true nature, but one mission in my life as Richard Grayson reveals my secret and forces me to come clean.
That day, just like any other, started great. Alfred made me pancakes, my favorite earth food, and school was out for a teacher work day. The day had the potential to be perfect, if it hadn't been for Klarion the witch boy and his stupid cat. The stupid sorcerer decided to use my people's magic for his own gain, little did he know that their magic could do little good to someone who doesn't know how to use it.
Batman sent us, the YJ team, to stop him of course, and of course he gave us a difficult time.
"You cannot defeat me!" He cackled evilly. "With this magic mixed with my own, I am unstoppable!" I rolled my eyes. Did he seriously believe that he could use our Father's magic? The team raised their weapons, preparing to fight, but I had to do this alone. Only one born from the magic can stop the magic. Klarion's hands began to glow white with the power, and I knew I had to act fast.
"STOP!" I screamed, gaining everyone's attention, including Klairon. I unclipped my cape, allowing it to fall to the ground, and closed my eyes, reaching up with my hands and began to chant, "Apertus en upaah! O Amayo, conisa ge tonvg oi coredazodizoda pelapeli zomdv alonusahi!" (Open my wings! O Lord, do not let this boy/man take your power!) Even if I was not a part of the lord's army, he would never let his magic fall into the hands of a sorcerer, and so my power was granted.
I felt my Robin suit rip as my large, glorious wings sprouted from my back, flexing harshly at the familiar feeling. My eyes glowed white, burning off my mask, and the angelic magic that flowed through me was released. "Alonusahi de a lang, tonvg te bolape itzomatzipe ar ol esse paradial od ascha!" (Power of the Angels, let it be known that I am alive and well!) Klarion's hands dimmed as the magic left them, and instead of being scared like most, he was simply angry. The witch boy snarled angrily and yelled like a child.
"No no no! It's not fair! Your kind can't be here! You can't live on earth, it is forbidden!" He shouted, pointing at me with a clawed finger, and Teekl growled in a threatening manner. I smirked at the boy and how stupid he was.
"Well it's a good thing I'm not a part of the army." I flexed my dark grey wings, spreading them out to the full span of fourteen feet, showing the mark of my true self. The mark that was burned into the underside of my left wing looked like a strange three with a circle on the top line and the bottom line curling at the end, with a bar with two circles on either end through the middle. Klarion gasped, acting genuinely surprised for once, then he began to laugh.
"Oh, wonderful! A Grigori doing the dirty work of his heavenly brothers!" My jaw clenched and my muscles tightened. How dare he say something like that to me?!
"I do not do my brothers' work! I am no longer a brother because of the sin I caused thousands of years ago! I defied my father and I am still paying for my own actions!" I found myself yelling, my wings moving to prepare for flight. Klarion's smile disappears and he glares at me.
"Well then, talking to a remorseful Grigori, I'll check that off my bucket list." Then he opened a portal, stepping through the purple, swirling vortex and disappearing into the day. I wanted to scream! How could I have let him escape? If I had only acted sooner than maybe-
"Robin?" I spun around at the voice calling my name and saw the team, terrified expressions on their faces. I had only now realized that they had been there the whole time, that they saw everything. I flexed my wings out and flapped them downward harshly, pushing off the ground with my legs, and taking off into the sun-filled sky.
They called out to me, but I ignored them and continued to fly, higher and higher until I could no longer see them. I had nowhere else to go, I had to go back to the manor or risk them finding me.
I landed on the balcony to my room after a few minutes of flying, and snuck through the doors as quietly as I could.
"Hello, Master Dick," I nearly jumped out of my skin and spun around to see Alfred standing in the doorway, "we do have a front door you know." My shoulders relaxed at the old butler's humor.
"Yes, Alfred, I know, but it's easier to use the balcony when I'm flying." I stretched out my wings just enough for emphasis but not enough to break anything. "Oh, and where is Bruce, I need to talk to him." I tucked my wings back tightly against my spine, though I didn't have another glamor to hide them fully.
"He's been in the cave all morning." Alfred said, then turned and walked down the hallway. I followed him out, closing the door behind me and heading towards the cave to tell Bruce goodbye for the last time.
AN: So what do you think? The next chapter will introduce more Grigori, so there will be some OC action. Oh, and BTW, Roy is a part of the team, and he's NOT A CLONE! Don't forget to review!
