(3 months Later)
After finally being dismissed from the hospital Jason was brought back to the Wayne mansion along with Tim as he was picked up along with Jason by Alfred.
"So I finally get to see inside after about 9 Months of being gone." Said Jason excited and somewhat worried.
"It is good that you are coming home Master Jason." Said Alfred while tying to hold back his happiness.
"Yeah, But Mr. Alfred why am I being brought to the mansion as well?" asked Tim.
"Master Bruce will explain once we get there young Tim." Answered Alfred.
After an hour of driving they finally came to the Wayne Mansion. There inside they saw all the rich items around and the picture of Bruce's Parents. Once there Alfred brought them both to the entrance of the Batcave. However, as Jason was about to follow Alfred he was stop by Tim.
"What is it Tim?" asked Jason.
"Jason I know you are excited to be back but remember what I talked about a couple of weeks ago." Stated Tim
Jason then began to remember their conversation he had with Tim 2 weeks ago when Tim came to visit him as he regularly did it and was told stories of Jason's adventures as Robin. He then remembers the one conversation that Tim is talking about and began to be worried just like Tim was.
(2 Weeks Ago)
"What do you mean Bruce won't let me be Robin again!" yelled at Tim angrily.
"I'm just saying that he might say this." Stated Tim, Trying to calm Jason down after his statement and while hoping no one in the hospital heard Jason's outburst.
"Just think about it he probably feels like he has failed you by letting the joker kill you and by not killing the Joker to avenge you. Not only that you have been revived somehow and he probably feels like he has been haunted by his greatest failure by seeing you alive again." Explained Tim.
At first Jason was going to talk back but knew that Tim was right as Bruce had not once come to see Jason ever since the night that Tim called him and Dick. He then laid down and then turned to Tim with a smile.
"Tim I'm glad I met you even if it was under weird circumstances." Said Jason.
"Yeah I see you as a friend as well after talking to you for the past 3 months." Said Tim
(Present)
As they go into the Batcave Tim is in awe over what he saw the cave with not only the advanced technology he had ever seen but it also had some bats flying around inside of it. However what caught Jason's attention was what he had never seen in the cave before. As he ran to get a closer look he saw his robin costume. It was a dark red with arm length sleeves and legs, and the gloves and boots were a dark Green. As for the cape it was a dark green on the outside but yellow on the inside. And the Robin insignia was shuriken-like at the bottom legs.
"So this is what you did to my costume after what happened." Said Jason to Bruce who was sitting in his chair.
Bruce simply turned around and looked at Jason and Tim then got up from his chair and moved to talk to both Tim and Jason. After about half an hour both Jason and Tim left the Batcave and Jason was upset as was Tim.
"Like you figured Tim he said no." said Jason heading for his room in anger.
"I thought if I was backing you up he would at least consider it." Said Tim.
(Batcave)
Bruce was continuing working on the computer when Alfred came in. while watching Bruce from a distance he sees Bruce sigh and go into the Batmobile and drive away.
"Master Bruce." Said Alfred with a large amount of worry in his voice.
(Flashback to after Bruce left Jason in Gotham Hospital)
"Master Bruce, please take this to heart. Who Jason was, how we lost, him and this dark "miracle" that has brought about his return, it is not your fault." Said Alfred over the intercom of the Batmobile as he saw everything that happened on the computer of the Batcave.
"I know you view his death as his greatest failure." Continued Alfred.
"His life and his death are my greatest failure. Do you remember how he was when I found him?" interrupted Bruce.
"Of course sir fearless, arrogant, brass, and gifted." Remarked Alfred.
"Yes, different from Dick in so many ways, but still filled with power and potential. But, I knew from the beginning he was dangerous if I hadn't made him into Robin he would have grown to do wrong. Then I got him killed my partner, my soldier, my fault. I own that, I'll carry that like everything else. And it is for that reason when Jason recovers he won't be allowed to be Robin again." stated Batman.
"Sir what about young Tim." asked Alfred.
"I'll bring him to the mansion as soon as Jason is out of the hospital." Stated Batman
(Warehouse Downtown Gotham)
Many gang members were gathering inside.
"Hey who ordered this meeting? Black Mask?" asked one of the gang members in anger.
"No, I did." Said someone from above.
It was Red Hood with an AK-47 in his hands.
"You know there are easier ways to die." said another gang member.
"Yeah smart thing to say to the guy holding an AK-47." Stated Red Hood.
"Listen to me you drug-peddling scumbags. You guys are biggest peddlers in Gotham I'm offering you morons a deal." He began.
"Join me and you will have protection from both Black Mask and Batman. You also get 40% of the deals you make, a lot more than you get with Black Mask right." He stated. "You just stay away from schools and schoolyards. No dealing to children got it! If you do your dead." he suddenly yelled.
"This all very generous. But why should we listen to you?" Said the same gang member who called him out earlier.
He then dropped a duffel bag which is opened by one of the gang members and causes them to move away from it as well as cause one to throw up.
"Those are the heads of all your lieutenants. That took me 2 hours. Want to see what I can do in a whole evening." He said in a somewhat sadistic voice. "Make no mistake I'm not asking you to join up with me I'm telling you." He said as he fired off the AK-47 to scare the gang members.
The gang members move away but when they look up the Red Hood is gone. They all agree as they know they have no choice in the matter.
(a few days later)
On the news they are speaking of a large robbery done in the night by some of the Gangs now working for the Red Hood where not only having an advantage over the cops in weaponry but had several hostages.
(Batcave)
As Bruce was preparing to go he sees the computer inform him someone is at the front door. It turns it is Tim and he figures he is here to talk to Jason who he describes as being brothers. However, he notices that it looks like Tim ran and is unnecessarily banging on the door. Alfred opens the door and Tim rushes to the Batcave without saying anything to Alfred. Once there he stops when he sees Bruce.
"What is it Tim?" asked Bruce
"My mom and dad are in that Bank!" he yelled.
