A/N: So yeah I updated these three first chapters since they're just prologues. I hope to update once every week now since school is almost over. Enjoy!


Set after "Performances" (December 2010)

Richard looks up at the smiling man before him, confused and alarmed. "It's Dan. Dan Danger." The ringleader pats the young man on his shoulders.

"Son, you've grown, but some things never change. Like the sight of a Grayson on a trapeze. You can't fake that, can't hide it. You're family is just too unforgettable." The former circus performer beams with pride. "Just like I told you sister a few months ago…" Mr. Haley gives a small groan of frustration as he processed his words. The young man in front of him widens his bright blue eyes in shock.

"Wait, a sister? What do you mean?" Mr. Haley sighs.

"Son, what I'm about to tell you will shock you. You may want to sit down." The ringleader guides the stunned Dick to his desk. "Where to begin…"

"Are you saying I have a sister? A living sister?" Richard whispers. Mr. Haley rubs the back of his neck nervously.

"You see, Richard. You were not the only child to Mary and John Grayson. Sophia Saraphine Grayson was and still is your older twin sister." The grandfather figure pauses to allow the information to settle.

"I have a sister? I have a twin? AN OLDER TWIN SISTER?" The boy wonder gasps loudly. "Why can't I remember her? Where has she been all these years?"

"About that… You and Sophia were six at the time when we ran into a group of traffickers out in San Jose, California. We didn't know who they were until it was too late. You and your sister were playing at a local park. The two of you were inseparable. Anyways, like I said, you two were playing when a band of men came after you. Your mother had walked off a little to find a shaded place for lunch while your father was watching you two. Then someone tried to pickpocket him and everything went downhill from there." Haley took a breath before continuing.

"While your father was distracted, chasing the thief, you and your sister were being cornered by the group. Your sister cried for your mother when she saw them snatching up children. Her cries alerted your mother who ran as fast as she could to reach you two. However, she never made it in time. Just before they could snatch you, Richard, your sister pushed you roughly into the jungle gym. You fell onto one of the metal poles and blacked out completely. By the time your mother showed up, your sister was gone and you were lying under a covered portion of the jungle gym."

"So what happened to her?" The now shocked hero whispered.

"Well… we don't know exactly. You were rushed to the hospital for the head injury. The police of that city were corrupt and were paid to disregard any activity those traffickers did. When you came to in the hospital, we found that you had no recollection of your twin. However, we had hoped that you would remember who the men looked like so we could identify the ones who took Sophia, but sadly this did not happen. Your memory was too scattered. After you were released we packed up and headed down the tour route, stopping at more cities than planned in hopes to find young Sophia. Two years had gone with no luck at all. We were on the last leg of the North American tour before going to Europe when we stopped in Gotham City. It was our last desperate stop."

"You never found her, did you?" Dick's voice barely comes out. The old ring master smiles sadly.

"Actually as luck would have it, one of the performers spotted your sister running from a band of demented clowns. The performer ran after her, but sadly he was poisoned to death. Your sister, though, was safely back in our arms. We were going to meet you when Tony Zucco appeared. Your mom and I had told you briefly that your sister had returned before that man came in and ruined everything."

"The day they… they fell was the day my sister was supposed to come home?" The stunned brother breathes out incredulously. Why would someone do something that cruel? "Does Bruce know about her?"

"Yes, your guardian knows about her existence. I told him the day he came to pick you up. However with the trauma you had just witnessed, your memory had a relapse and so you forgot about her again. We both decided to not tell you about her until the right time came. I'm sorry, son."

"But you said you saw her a few months ago… Where did she go?"

"She came here for a ride to Austria. She became a mute. I still cannot imagine her in such a state but there she was with nothing more than a guitar bag strapped to her back and ripped clothes as if she escaped from somewhere."

"What?"

"Right after your parents' death, your sister was taken again but by another group of people. There was nothing I could do to save her. I just watched her terrified expression fade into the night as they rode a helicopter. Broke my heart it did to see her that way. When she came back here, she looked like she's seen and done so much."

"Does she… did she remember me?"

"Oh yes. All she asked was how you were. Where did you live? Who were you living with? Were you happy." Dick sits in silence while he allows himself to soak in everything. It felt as if a ton of bricks had been dropped on his head. "She was better now though from when we last saw each other. She seems like she's found a purpose, much like you." Mr. Haley smiles gently at his grandson figure. "I know this is a lot to process, and I'm sure Mr. Wayne will be more than willing to answer your questions about Sophia." The man pats the younger twin on the shoulders.

"Mr. Haley," a performer dressed in leather knocks, "we are departing Geneva and will be arriving in Satigny in fifteen minutes."

"Thank you Keith." Robin looks at his grandfatherly figure before him. "So what do you say? Do an old ring master one last favor?" The youngest Grayson smiles.


"Ladies and gentlemen, the farewell performance of the Daring Dangers!" The ring master's voice echoes through the big tent. Spotlights hit Dan Danger who waves before flying off.


A/N: As always, please review! I will be asking every chapter so might as well, am I right? Thank you.
