Chapter 1!
!#$!$##$
Finding out that you had a sister was never easy, for anyone really. Especially when you find out that she already knew about you all of this time, and now you're going to go live with said long lost sister for a year? All because your new housemate wanted in on the 'family business', and was out every night for meetings, which would have left her all alone in the big empty mansion that she had called home. Which would have been fine, if it wasn't for the fact that she had been kidnapped in said house in previous weeks. That's life though, or at least the life of Alyson Wayne.
Her dad was moving her to live in New Gotham with her older sister Helena Kyle and Barbra Gordon, an old friend of her dad's from back in the day. Now, she was on a bus ride that was taking forever. All she could think about was that she was leaving behind everyone that she had ever loved. No, she wasn't leaving, she was being sent away from them. She couldn't help but feel bitter toward her father. She had been kidnapped twice now. Once had been when she was a little kid, and another had been just a short few weeks ago, and now she was being sent away to some where that she didn't even know, to live with people that she had never even met before.
The only upside to all of this? Would be that Alfred was already out there, and had been for a couple of weeks now. She loved that old man, but deep down? She wished that it was someone else coming with her. Dick, she was going to miss him a lot over the next couple of months. Would he get a girlfriend, and forget all about her while she was away? It wouldn't surprise her if he did. They weren't together, she had made that pretty clear the last time that she had talked to him, so he was free to date anyone he would like. Now that he was officially living with her dad too? It only meant that ladies would be lining up to date him in no time.
And what about that Robin fellow? Would she ever see him again? If she did, would he remember who she was? She had secretly hoped so. She didn't know why, but she just did. She liked Dick though, didn't she? He brought out a fire in her that she didn't even know she had in her. His kiss had sent sparks flying inside of her head. It made her toes curl, and sent a shiver down her spine like a bolt of lightening just at the thought of his kiss. So, if just the thought of his kiss did that to her, why was she wishing to see another man?
This was another reason why she had wanted to stay in Gotham City. She needed to figure out why this was happening to her. Why did she have feelings for two different men, both of whom looked a lot alike? And one of which she had only met for a few short minutes. Things such as feelings don't happen that fast, do they? Her heart tugged at the thought of Dick. He hadn't been home to say good bye to her. He didn't want to see her leave. He had been avoiding her ever since he had came back after she was kidnapped and they had fought. Did he know that she was conflicted over her feelings about him and another guy? Did she even really have feelings for this Robin character?
She really needed to quit thinking about all of this. It was really starting to hurt her head. She should be thinking about her new 'sister', and about this new place that she was going to be living at for the time being. Not about her stupid love life of all things. Her dad had told her only a few days ago about Helena. She was his and her mother's first love child. Selena had tried to keep her a secret, but she had died a few years ago. Alyson had only been around eight when it had happened, and Helena, herself, had been just barely a teenager at the time. Their dad had tried to get her to come live with them, but she had refused and Barbra Gordon had taken over as guardian for her.
She felt a tear slide down her cheek, bringing her back to reality. The thought of her mother had always made her over emotional. She had kept Helena, but she had given up her. Why? Because Helena was the first born? Was she just not good enough for her? Her dad had always resured her that it wasn't like that at all. That Selena had cried, and she had died a little inside when she had given Bruce full parental rights of Alyson. Her mind had been so fragile at the time, and that she had, had no choice but to give her up. She had gotten better, though. So why hadn't she come back for her when she had? Was she not worth the trouble?
She wiped her traitor tears, and looked outside of the window. She could see the tips of the buildings up ahead. It wouldn't be much longer now until she was there, she thought to herself. Sure, she just wanted this bus ride to be over already, but she couldn't help being excited too. Even when she had all the reason to hate everything about this new place and her 'sister' that she didn't even know about. There was always an upside to everything though. She had a sister! On some level, she was actually excited about that. She wouldn't be alone.
The bus ride to New Gotham was fine, non the less though. It was quiet, for the most part, and surprisingly comfortable. She had gotten the time to clear her thoughts. She hadn't been able to do that since before Dick had came into the picture. The only real damper on the bus ride was that a scronny man had tried to hit on her. She couldn't help but think of Dick's reaction if he had been on the bus with her though.
No doubt the guy's face would be hanging out of the window the second that he looked at her. She couldn't help but giggle upon imagining that. "You're Bruce Wayne's daughter, Alyson, aren't you?" She looked up at the woman in now next to her. She looked vaguely familiar to her, but she just couldn't put her finger on it. She nodded her head confusedly to the woman. "It's Carolyn. I'm an old friend of your father's. I haven't actually seen you since you were a little girl, though." The woman explained to her.
Now she knew why she had looked familiar to her. She did vaguely remember Carolyn, but only bits and pieces. She remembered her coming over and watching her sometimes when her dad had had to go out some nights to some meeting. It was only once and a while, but she had still kept her company. "I kind of remember you, but not completely. I'm sorry." She admitted to her.
Carolyn chuckled, okay with the girl's honesty. "That's quite alright, Alyson. What are you doing here alone?" She told her, causing the girl to smile back, grateful for the forgiveness. Carolyn would have been amazed if the girl had remembered her much at all. She had only been there when there was danger and Bruce had needed her to keep Alyson protected. Not that Alfred couldn't have done that on his own, but back up never hurt to have.
It had worked out for them both though. Alyson was protected, but she had been able to spend time with the little girl, something that she hadn't been able to do with her own little girl because of the danger. Bruce had been able to do something she couldn't. He had been able to keep Alyson and out of his other life, something she hadn't been able to do with her own daughter. "Dad got paranoid and finally told me about him and mom having had a kid before me. He wants her and I to meet and live together." She explained to the woman next to her.
Carolyn nodded her head in understanding. Alyson had been kept in the dark about a lot of things, some things she was still in dark about. Helena Kyle was one of those secrets, but it looked as if she wasn't anymore. "I'm sorry. Your dad has a funny way of showing that he loves you. He only keeps secrets from you to protect you." She told her, placing her hand on the girls in a way to comfort her.
Alyson nodded her head, not letting the fact that she had said secrets, as in plural, which meant more than one secret. She couldn't help but wonder what else her father was keeping from her. She knew that he was over protective sometimes, but she hated the lies that came from his protectiveness. She hated being lied to, especially when it was her own father doing the lying. "He does, doesn't he? Are you going to be staying in New Gotham for a while? It'd be nice to have someone around that I actually know." Alyson asked her, giving her a pleading look, hoping that she would say yes.
Carolyn gave her a weak smile and a nod of her head. "For a while, I hope. I'm actually in town to see Barbra Gordon. I'm sure if your dad told you about Helena, that he told you about her too, am I right?" She told her. Alyson's smile then broke out on her face as she nodded her head. She was excited to know that one person would be able besides Alfred that she knew.
Carolyn smiled back, happy to know that she had made the young girls day. So maybe this new city won't be as bad as Alyson had first thought. Maybe this was a sign to say that everything would turn out just fine by her moving here to live with her sister. At least she hoped that it would be. As they drove closer into the city, her nerves had kicked into over drive. This was really happening to her. She was in New Gotham, she had one friend, a new sister, and a new live to start.
