Thomas Drake - The New Boy Wonder

by OutOfTune

It was to no surprise that Damian Wayne would leave the shadow of Dick Grayson and become his own man. Thomas Drake has recently completed his training and replaced Damian. Thomas is Gotham's new hero. He is the second Robin to Dick Grayson's Batman. While Bruce and Tim are looking after the rest of the world, Thomas is left in the care of Dick as they watch over Gotham.

Prologue

Here we are. This is the most prosperous city in the world. Full of opportunity. Yet, it is also the most corrupt. The crime rate is through the roof, and there is not enough police to take care of them all. This is Gotham City.

Years ago, my adoptive grandfather began wearing a certain mask and took the law into his own hands. It was something he had put so much effort training for. He wanted to clean up this city. He wanted to make it a safer place. There is so much that he had done for this city. He has currently left to take care of the rest of the world, along with my father. It is now my turn to help this city.

My name is Thomas Drake. I am currently being trained by a friend of my father's. His name is Richard Grayson. He did what he could to train my 'uncle', and now it is time for me to join the family.

It has been six months since I completed my horridly brutal training. I had never thought that so many skills were required for this kind of job. Even now, I still have a lot to learn. Maybe I'll feel it's not enough when I'm older.
