Nick awoke the next day by himself since he threw the alarm clock out of the window because it quote on quote "Reminded him of a time bomb" when it woke him up "Nick, hurry up and get into your uniform" Dick shouted across the hall as Nick searched his closet for it, when he found it he changed quickly into it, there was also a timetable in the pocket of the blazer, once he was in his uniform, Nick went downstairs to the dining room where he found Jason and Artemis in their uniforms (Artemis stayed the night) and breakfast already at the table, Nick took a seat next to the blonde archer "About time you woke up, I was about to send Jason up to wake you, what happened to your alarm clock?" Bruce asked as Nick took a bite of his food "Causing bad memories, so I threw it out the window" Nick said nonchalantly as Bruce sighed "Sorry" he said as Dick came downstairs finally holding a couple bags, "I packed your school bag and gym clothes lil' bro" Dick said coming up to Nick and ruffling his hair, Nick just ignored that and continued to eat his breakfast. When he finished eating he took his plate into the kitchen "You ready to go Nick?" Artemis asked as he reentered the dining room "Yeah" Nick said as he joined Artemis and headed towards the car where Alfred was waiting, Dick intercepted the two and hugged Nick "Have fun Nick, I put your suit and gear with Artemis' for you to change into after school if you want to head to Mount Justice to start training, if your ready" Dick explained as he released Nick who nodded and went outside to get in the car "Lets go Alfred" Artemis said as the two got in the car and Alfred drove off.

"We have arrived Master Nick and Mistress Artemis" Alfred said as the two left the car "Let me show you to your locker Nick" Artemis said leading him to the lockers, he had Dick's old locker which was near hers "Put your gym stuff in here, all classes are with your own year group so I won't be in your classes except gym, if you have it at the same time as me, I have it at the end of the day on days I have gym" Artemis said pulling her timetable out and Nick got his out after placing his gym bag in his locker "Thank God, yes" Nick said comparing timetables with Artemis and saw they have the same gym class, they even had it today, then the bell rang so Nick parted ways with his guide for his first two lessons, there were 5 lessons a day, going 2 lessons, then a 20 minute break, 2 lessons an hour for lunch then last lesson. Nick arrived at his first lesson which was English and worked alone for this lesson, good thing Artemis was next door so she could show him where his second lesson "Nick, could you please focus" the teacher said as Nick was looking off in the distance thinking of how he could cause a panic due to a prank, making a hand or foot smoke and setting off the alarms, Artemis would know it was him though so he wouldn't do it on a day she was there, after completing his work for his first lesson, Nick headed off for Geography which was boring and the furthest away from the area where students hang out at break according to Artemis, Nick was lucky that he was able to have education whilst being a slave so that he will be able to understand what was going on, in this class they were going over plate tectonics which was fairly easy to Nick. After class Nick went out of the room and saw students flocking towards the area Artemis shown him, "Nick, over here!" Artemis shouted from at the end of the hallway, Nick went over to her "I... Hate... Geography" Nick said joining her as she pointed out the locations for his next two classes "Do you want to see where your suit and gear are?" Artemis asked, Nick nodded and they went off.

While Nick and Artemis were at school Wally, Zantana, Dick and Kaldur'ahm were at Mount Justice, all studying under Black Canary "Break for twenty minutes you four, we will continue with our next subject then" Black Canary said as Dick got out his phone, he called Nick, "Hello RT, yeah I'm good, Artemis shown you where your stuff is" is basically how their conversation went, Kaldur was talking with Black Canary about the work for the team so Wally and Zee were talking "So, do you think Rogue Talon is doing well at school?" Zantana asked Wally "Well from what I overheard from Nightwing and Robin, he is going to Gotham Academy, Artemis wouldn't know because isn't she a year above RT" Wally replied, lying to Zantana straight up him knowing that Artemis is there for Nick "Hey Wally, can I talk with you?" Nightwing called out as Wally went over to him and Nightwing passed the phone to Wally "Hey RT, so your coming later, yeah I'm alright, sure I'll come over afterwards if it's alright with uncle Barry, you gotta go back to class, I'll get Nightwing to text you my number, talk to you at lunch then, bye" Wally said as he finished talking and Nick hung up to go back to class whilst Wally still had a few minutes before going back to class with the other three "He's taken a liking to you" Nightwing pointed out "I feel like I have a duty to keep him safe" Wally said rejoining everyone else "Hey Black Canary, Rogue Talon will be joining us to start his training today" Nightwing said as she nodded "Shall we continue with your studies then you four?" Dinah asked, they all nodded in response of her question and went back to their books "I'd rather Rogue Talon study here with us" Nightwing whispered to Wally as he nodded and continued to work by taking notes of what Dinah was saying.

Back with Nick and Artemis, their classes were going well and after their next two lessons they met up to eat lunch with each other "So what did Alfred pack for you for lunch Nick?" Artemis asked as she pulled out her lunch as they sat under a tree "Just a sandwich and an apple" Nick replied taking a bite into the ham salad sandwich as Artemis started eating her food "Is your phone going off Nick?" Artemis asked as Nick checked and nodded "Dick just gave me Wally's number" Nick said saving the number and texting Wally, "Want my number Nick?" Artemis asked "Sure, your my school guardian" Nick said passing her his phone so she could enter her phone number "Want me to call Wally and Dick, they should be at the manor now" Nick asked Artemis who had just finished her sandwich "Go ahead, call Dick, Wally can stay out of it" Artemis said with her usual distaste for Wally, Nick chuckled and called Dick "Hey lil' bro" Dick said as he was put on speaker phone "Hey Dick, your on speaker so Artemis can talk to" Nick replied as he continued eating "Ok, Arty how is he doing" the older brother asked "He is doing alright, he hated Geography and enjoyed Chemistry" she replied as Nick nodded even though his brother couldn't see it "Will you guys be coming straight to the cave or will you come by here to drop your stuff off?" Dick asked as he shoved a sandwich in his mouth "I'm gonna drop my stuff off" Nick said "I'm going straight to the cave, don't want the team to be suspicious of me and Nick" Artemis said, glad Wally isn't there. They ended up talking a little more and when lunch was over the two at school bee lined it to their lockers to grab their gym equipment and went off to the changing rooms, Nick felt uncomfortable changing in front of people because of the scars on his back due to the years in slavery, Nick entered the room and saw some of the seniors smoking and knew to take the advantage of it, since the smoke was in the toilets, Nick entered a cubicle when he got in their, used the smoke to hide the scars for this lesson, gym passed fairly quickly and Nick met up with Artemis after changing back into their uniforms, Artemis gave Nick his suit and he turned into smoke, getting rid of the smoke that he took in, in the toilets from the changing room.

Nick took the Zeta Tube back to the batcave and appeared in front of Batman "Hey Dad" Nick said as he went to the elevator to the manor "Hey Nick, get changed then get to the cave, training starts today" Batman replied as Nick went up the elevator, he put his stuff in his bedroom and changed into his Rogue Talon gear, he made his way back to the elevator when he was stopped by a yellow blur "Hey Wally" Nick said not surprised at all "Yo, lets go test you out then Rogue Talon" Wally said smirking as Nick punched Wally's arm, hard, and made his way to the Zeta tubes, "Wally, head in a couple minutes after me and Nightwing to avoid suspicion about you knowing our identities" Nick said placing his mask on and used the tube with Nightwing to arrive at the cave "Hey guys" Rogue Talon said joining them "What we going to do to train?"
