I hope you guys liked the beginning to this story! Also Happy 4th of July and I decided to celebrate with another chapter; and it has nothing to do with the fact that I have way to much free time. Let me know if you have any ideas on how I can improve.
"Actually we would also like to offer them some lunch for making out meal more interesting. Right Jay?" Tim offers his Wayne smile and looks over at Jason.
"Right. They definitely deserve it for that performance." Jason laughed back not at all surprised the other customers had returned to their food and not even bothered to give the girls a glance. As if they could care less what the outcome is for a couple of street rats.
This only irritated the older girl. "We don't need your charity and we weren't trying to amuse you." She snapped back as she crossed her arms and bat-glared at the two Wayne's before heading to the entrance with which they came. But before she got too far the shop owner grabbed ahold of the older girls arm.
"You're not going anywhere until you give back what you stole you little thief." The older man definitely looking like that of Gotham scum has his stained clothes, bloodshot eyes, and immense odor clearly stated.
"Let. Go." The older girl growled as her eyes darkened. It was clear she was not comfortable being touched by anyone.
"We didn't take anything you just think we did." The younger sister calmly lied at this point being free from the manager, seeing has it was longer interested in what happened to the girls and seeing as how they had WE CEO defending them, and still standing by Tim and Jason's table.
"Whatever you think they took I will pay for as long as leave and stop bothering everyone from their meals." Tim quickly answered before the shop owner could blame the young girls again.
This seemed to please the shop owner as he, like everyone in Gotham it seemed, cared only for money. As Tim handed him $50, obviously way more than anything the girls stole was worth, he was gone quicker than he had arrived.
"I told you we don't need your charity." The older girl stated as she turned around to glare at Tim. Tim was started to think they were related with how much this girl glared.
"I did it to get him to leave." Tim simply stated while offering a small smile before heading back to his table where the younger girl and Jason remained.
"Whatever. Let's go." The girl stated annoyed before once again heading to the entrance. But the younger girl did not move as she was entranced by the dessert brought to the table next to Tim and Jason's.
"Robin." The older girl said when she realized her sister wasn't behind her as she was already outside the sitting area.
"But Annie food!" the younger girl cried out. As though the thought of leaving without trying some of the wonderfully delicious looking food was outrageous.
"Want some?" Jason offered with a small smile because this is little girl just had that effect on you; she made you want to smile with her childlike actions and responses.
This made the little girl's eyes light up like she been told she was getting a puppy. But before she could respond her older sister came over and grabbed her wrist, dragging her out of the café.
"We have food and home. You don't need to go around begging for it." The older girl lectured as she continued to drag her sister down the street and around the corner. With the whole time the younger girl looked down feeling she disappointed her sister and looking like she lost something she really wanted as she kept glanced back one last time.
After the girl's where out of sight Tim turned to look at Jason and saw that he was staring at the corner they just turned. Tim didn't even need to ask if he was alright as he knew the answer; knowing all too well what kind of life Jason lived before coming to live with Bruce. So they finished their meal in a comfortable silence with both of them still thinking about those two little girls.
Later than night as they were out for the night with the Arkham Knight and Red Robin patrolling together around the crime alley and the narrows. They sometimes team up with the rest of the family but now that everyone was older they tend to do their own thing. Now that Dick and Barbara were married and had moved to Bludhaven they focused their energy there. But Gotham still had them, Batman and Robin, and Batgirl (Stephanie).
So far the night had been a long but fairly slow night with only a few muggings and a bank robbery. What Tim and Jason didn't know was this was the night there lives changed forever.
As they were about to call it a night, or day depending on how you see it as it was nearing 1 a.m.. They hear the gunshot and a scream, causing both of them to rush over the two blocks to where the heard it.
When they silently dropped down into the alleyway shadows, undetected to all five occupants; two of which Jason recognized as the two little girls from earlier today. Everyone was tense as the younger sister, Robin, was shielded by her older sister, Annie, as the three mean started to surround them.
The man that held the gun offered the girls a pissed off look "Did your old man honestly think he could not pay me and get away with it." Neither girl responded but tried to make sure none of the men got behind them.
"Looks like we're gonna take you two as payment." As Robin was grabbed by the largest man who had a tattoo going up his neck to his face. Annie tried to reach out for her but was grabbed by the other man who smelled and looked like he hadn't bathed in months. Of course while this was happening Jason and Tim were getting into position.
"Let them go asshole." Jason said as he held his gun to the leaders head. Before he could respond Tim grabbed Robin from the tattoo man and took him out in less than 15 seconds. It was then that Annie decided to get free herself instead of waiting and bit the hand of her captor.
"Ahh the little bitch bit me." The thug screamed as his hand was now bleeding. But before anyone could react the leader aimed and fired his gun at Annie hitting her.
"Annie!" Robin screamed and ran to her sister right before Jason put a bullet in the leaders head for even thinking a harming a kid while quickly knocked out the last thug and tied the remaining scumbags together and calling the GCPD.
Robin was now leaning over her sister desperately trying to stop the bleeding from the gun wound to the shoulder as tears started to form in her different colored eyes. Of course this didn't stop her from noticing the vigilantes getting closer.
"Stay back!" Robin yelled as the tears began to fall from her eyes.
"We're not going to hurt you. We just want to help. Please." Tim calmly said as he held his hands up in a sign of peace in hopes of appeasing the little girl.
"There's so much blood. I don't know what to do."
Tim crouched beside the girls and began inspecting the wound. There was a lot of blood and it looked like the bullet didn't go all the way through. He knew they had to get her help before she bled out more. Tim pulled out some gauze and told her to keep pressure. He pulled Jason away from the girls.
"She's going to need a doctor."
"The hospital is on the other side of the city she won't make it that far and it will take the ambulance too long to get here." Jason growled upset that a little girl was bleeding out in an alleyway.
"Leslie's clinic is only a few blocks. It is our best bet." Jason nodded as he walked over to two girls and kneeled down.
This caused as the little girl to look up. "We have to get your sister to a doctor but you're going to have to trust us." Robin looked at Jason and then Tim and down to her sister slowly bleeding to death before giving a small nod.
Jason carefully picked Annie up but she stilled groaned in pain as she was barely conscious. Holding her with one arm he shot his grapple before pulling them skyward. Tim walked over to Annie and held out his hand.
"Hold on tight." Tim offered a small smile in hopes of reassuring the young girl as she wrapped her arms around his waist before he followed Jason across the rooftops to Leslie's clinic hoping they make it in time.
Will they get there it time?! Sorry for another cliffhanger. Also I decided to make Jason Arkham Knight instead of Red Hood because he looked badass in the game.
