"Where is she?" Blue Robin, a five-year-old masked little boy was hopping at the balls of his feet. He looked up at his mother, she wore a long blue cloak and had her long dark purple hair in a low ponytail. She smiled at the dark haired boy.
The woman laughed and looked up at the night sky of Bludhaven. The two were in an area where there weren't many people and it was quiet. Which was rare since Bludhaven was full of crime.
"I'm pretty sure that she is on her way." his mother said. Her purple eyes looking up at the sky. The little boy stared at his mother in awe. She was always had to hide her purple hair, eyes, her red chakra stone, and her grayish pale skin.
His mother was really pretty even when she was in her disguise.
"What if she is lost?" Nicholas asked. His mother looked at him and smiled.
"If she is lost, then we'll just call her." his mother said. The boy frowned. She smiled at the boy and touched his head. The boy looked up at his mother. "Wanna try to call her?"
" What if I'm bothering her?" the boy asked. He looked back the phone with a deep frown. His mother looked at the sky and smiled. The boy didn't notice. In fact, he was too busy looking at a blue cellphone. Wondering if he should call his Aunt or not.
"You won't bother her." his mother said.
The boy sighed and called his Aunt. He knew the number by heart cause he called her a lot besides his mother. He placed the phone to his ear and waited for her to answer. He smiled when he heard her cheery voice.
"Hello Nicky.." a cheerful woman answered.
"Hi, Auntie Kori." the boy said with a big wide smile.
"Calling to see if I'm on my way?" Kori asked through the phone.
"Yeah. Are you close by?" he asked. He didn't notice that someone was floating in front of him until something or someone cast a shadow. The boy blinked and looked up. His masked eyes widen and his smile grew even bigger.
In front of him, a woman with orange skin and green eyes. She had long fiery red hair and she had a phone to her ear. She wore a purple leotard that fit her curves. She smiled at the boy with a sweet smile.
"Auntie Kori." Nicholas cheered. He jumped into the woman's arms. Kori giggled caught him. The boy hugged her and Kori hugged him back. His mother moved close to the two and crossed her arms. The boy looked at his mother with a big smile. "Look, Mommy. Auntie Kori."
His mother nodded her head. She gave him a small smile but the boy knew it was full of love. " I see." his mother looked at Kori." Hello, Kori."
"Hello, Raven." Kori said with a big wide placed Nicholas down and gave Raven a big hug. "I'm sorry that I'm late. I needed to take of something while I was on my way."
" What was it?" Nicholas asked. He tilted his head at the side looking at his aunt. Kori pulled away from Raven. She goes back to pick up the small boy. She floated around and hugged the boy.
"Superhero stuff." Kori said. It was a simple answer but she really hoped that the small boy doesn't ask anymore. It was probably his childlike curiosity or if he was interested in crime. She really hoped it was former. " I'm really sorry that I'm late."
"It's alright." the boy said with a big smile. "So what kind of superhero stuff?"
" How about I tell you when you're older?" Kori said. Nicholas frowned.
"Awwwww." Nicholas said with a frown. Raven tilted her head and raised an eyebrow at Kori.
'It probably something that she can't tell me.' Raven thought. She looked at the small dark-haired boy and smiled. She could feel the platonic love that goes through the both them. It was to be expected, Kori was Nicholas godmother after all.
"So, are you ready for our weekend of fun?" Kori asked. The boy gave her a big nod and Kori cheered. "First we have to go flying."
"Yes. We do." Kori said with a nod. Kori looked over to Raven. The violet-haired put her hood over head and her eyes glowed. Nicholas giggled when dark energy. Raven smiled and the three of them took the sky.
"You know. There is such a thing of overeagerness." a female voice through his phone.
The man laughed while he looked out the window from his empty apartment. It was a quiet night which was unusual. He could hear the sirens from a distance and fire trucks. Besides that, it was pretty quiet. " I start work tomorrow Babs and I don't want to be late. I want my boss to actually like me."
"Dick, it's you. Everyone like you." Barbara said. Dick just smiled and looked around the empty apartment.
"Still it's good to make a good impression." Dick said.
"Have you seen your neighbors yet?" Barbara asked him. Dick shrugged his shoulders.
"No." Dick said. " Not yet. Why are you asking?"
"Just curious." Barbara said. Dick raised an eyebrow but brushed it under the rug. "I'll have to go, Bruce and Tim are patrolling tonight. They have a lead to those kidnapped boys."
"Alright." Dick said with a shrug.
"Oh yeah. One more thing. When is Nightwing going to be back on the streets?" Barbara asked him Dick was quiet for a minute.
"Just give me a week or two. I need time to adjust to this new city and my job." Dick said "If Bruce needs anything just let me know. "
"Are you going to find her?" Barbara asked. Dick grew quiet and frowned.
"Of course I'm going to find her. I need to contract the titans .they probably know her new location. I need to know that she's safe and she's happy." Dick said quietly. Even if she was happy with someone else.
"Just as long as you don't stalk her. I think it might be good." Barbara trailed off. Dick rolled his eyes and got from the window pane.
"I'm not going to stalk her, Babs." Dick said.
" Could've fooled me. I mean you have the doll version of her." Barbara said. She probably smiling over the phone.
"Aren't you supposed to be helping Bruce?" Dick said. Barbara laughed.
"Fine. I'll call you later Dick." Barbara said while she ended the call. Dick sighed and puts his phone in his pocket. He sighed and looked at the city. He had unblocked the bond and expect it to be small. It surprised him to feel that was as strong as ever. He remembered the bond will grow weaker the last time it was blocked.
He should know, she blocked him out last time. It was before they were dating and she was avoiding him. It only flared up again when they spend time together again.
He doesn't understand why it was still this strong now.
He stopped when his neighbor's door opened up and closed. His neighbors were probably home by now. He headed over to his room and goes to sleep.
"That was marvelous." Kori whispered while she floats in the air. She was dressed in a purple sweater and a pair of skinny jeans. She had taken off her sunglasses and was floating in the air. Raven smiled at her happy friend.
Raven's hair was black and her eyes were a deep blue. She was dressed in a light blue dress that fell to her ankles. "It was. Did you eat Kori?" Raven asked. She looked at the small boy holding her hand. He looked like he'll pass out just by standing there.
"Yes. I have eaten." Kori said with a big smile. She lowered down to the ground and spin around. "I am still hungry, however."
Raven smiled at her and nodded her head. "We have leftover meatloaf in the fridge. You're more than welcome to help yourself to it." Kori smiled and flew to the kitchen. Nicholas yawned and Raven looked down at him. "Want me to pick you up?"
"No. I'm fine." Nicholas said. He wrinkled his nose and Raven laughed. " I can walk." he said. He looked up his mother. His indigo eyes looked up her while he tried to stop a yawn.
"Are you sure?" she asked him again. Nicholas nodded his head.
"I'll be fine Mommy." Nicholas said while he let go of her hand. Raven try not to hover him while Nicholas walked to his room. He almost hit a wall but he avoided it.
"Nicholas is no longer a baby anymore."Kori said while she came from the kitchen. "He used to want to be carried to bed." Raven nodded her head sadly and smiled.
"He's getting older. Pretty soon he won't want to hold my hand anymore." Raven whispered sadly. She sighed and released the illusion spell. Her hair and eyes turned purple as her chakra stone returned to her forehead. Her skin turned to it grayish hue. " It was just yesterday that he was looking at me with his big indigo eyes."
Kori laughed and took a seat on the sofa. Raven moved to sit next to Kori. Kori eats her food happily. " And his little wiggly finger and his toes."
"I was surprised he came out mostly human." Raven said quietly. Kori smiled.
"Maybe it causes you are also part human." Kori said with a shrug. Raven nodded her head.
"Maybe." she whispered. He has some powers but Nicholas was the most part human. "He does act like Nightwing sometimes. Especially when he's happy. "
"Mommy." Raven snapped out of her thoughts and looked to Nicholas. He looked so sleepy in his Robin pjs. It made her laugh. "I can't find my Starfire doll." Raven nodded her and got up from her seat.
"Alright. Let's go look for her." Raven said. Kori laughed and Raven glared at Kori. Once Raven went to help Nicholas's doll.
Kori smiled when her friend left, she never thought that Raven will go through such a change. She never thought that Raven will take to motherhood so well. There were times she was a mess but she learned to deal with it. After all, she did wanted Nicholas and she raised him well.
It just cute see Raven fall under her little boy's spell.
Raven sighed and Nicholas pouted. " She's not anywhere." Nicholas said with a frown.
"It appears so. She'll turn up later." Raven said. She motion to Nicholas to go into the bed. "Now into bed. You have gymnastics practice in the morning." Nicholas sighed but listened to his mother anyway. He sat on the bed and pouted.
"I can't sleep without her." Nicholas said.
"We could ask the real Starfire to sleep with you . You used to sleep next to her when you were a baby." Raven said jokes dryly. Nicholas smiled and shook his head.
"No. Aunt Kori has her own room and I'm too big for that now." Nicholas said. Raven smiled and looked around the room. On the boy's dresser, there was a Nightwing plush doll. It had a smile on its face and it also had long hair.
Raven picked it up and stared at it for a long time. She looked at Nicholas before going over to him. "You could sleep with Nightwing." Raven suggested. Nicholas tilted his head to the side. "It's until we could find Starfire."
"Alright." Nicholas said while reaching for him. She smiled when Nicholas hugged it close to his chest. "It's only for tonight Nightwing. You go back guarding the dresser tomorrow." Nicholas tilted his head. " He said that since Starfire isn't around to watch over me. He'll be more than happy too."
Raven smiled at him and touched his hair. "I could always make you another Starfire." Raven said. Nicholas shook his head.
"Then Starfire will be sad for being replaced." Nicholas said. Raven smiled and nodded her head. "We don't make Starfire sad."
"Alright. No new Starfire doll." Raven said with a shrug. Nicholas smiled. He lay down and closed his eyes.
"Mommy." Nicholas started out. His eyes were still closed and cuddled to the pillow.
" Yes, baby." Raven asked.
"Can you tell the time you met Daddy again?" Nicholas asked. Raven smiled and sat next to him. She told the tale when she first met Robin and the other titans.
Done Chapter one. I think I edited this much as I can. Starfire will have an involvement in the story. It's a good involement through. Really good.
