A.n. Sorry that it has been such a long time since I updated this, I can't tell you how jam-packed my life has gotten lately.

It Hurts Daddy: Chapter 7
Gotham (lone street)
"Down this street and then left to a zeta tube" yawned Dick as he toddled down the street on wobbly legs. "Owww" whined the small teen "my legs are all sore" he sniffed as he leaned back on a store window and slid down till he was resting on the ground. He looked at his legs in front of him and was upset at seeing them bleeding through the bandages. "Stop hurting" he huffed at his legs, giving them small shakes.
The cold from the ground numbed his legs up a bit after a while and stopped the bleeding. Dick leaned back with a sigh of relief and looked up once more at the sky, "make a wish" he smiled as he closed his eyes and envisioned his friends and family. He opened them, still with a smile on his face and with replenished motivation pushed himself up to a standing position, leaning lightly on the store window.
"Just a couple more blocks" thought the little bird as he took step after slow step in front of him. Even while stumbling or slipping he kept on walking to his destination. "Wait… I don't have my glasses" realized Dick, pausing for a moment "Can't see the team like me" mumbled the ebony, with a pout "can't let them know my identity… daddy said so" he sighed in disappointment.
He was about to turn around when a glint in the shop window he was leaning on caught his eye. It was a thrift store with a bunch of random stuff on display, from fake jewelry to secondhand shoes, but what really captured Dick's eye were the ray bands in the middle of it all. "that'll work…" he smirked and punched through the glass, not really feeling the pain from the cuts the glass made.
He carefully picked the sunglasses up and placed them on his face, "I'll pay for them tomorrow" promised the boy. "Now I get to go see Wally and the others" he smiled and crossed the street to the abandoned phone booth. He stepped in and the familiar robotic voice announced Robin B01 and he disappeared in a flash of light.
Gotham Hospital
"WHERE IS HE!" bellowed Bruce Wayne, stalking through the hospital, checking every room he passed in hopes of finding Dick there. "I want to know which idiot left his door open! I want to know who was making rounds when he disappeared! I want to know where my son is!" he shouted.
"Mr. Wayne, please!" bid a frightened doctor trying to bring the man's temper down, "you have to stay calm—"CALM!?" interrupted Bruce. "My son disappeared from, what should be, a well-guarded hospital, and you want me to stay calm!?" he demanded. "Bruce!" appeared the familiar voice of Dr. Leslie as she rushed up to the man.
"Bruce, I know that you're worried but scaring everyone here won't do us any good" she panted trying to regain her breath from searching all over the hospital "I already contacted the police and gave them Richard's description. I'm going out to look for him, I suggest you do the same" she told him.
Bruce ground his teeth and without another word dashed out of the hospital in search of his boy. "Think Bruce, Think!" he ordered himself. "Where would Richard go? Where would he feel safe?" he racked his brain getting into the car. Then it hit him "The cave!" he sped off, burning rubber and made a beeline to the nearest zeta-beam. "Please be there" whispered Bruce getting into Batman mode.
A.N. That's all for tonight folks, but I promise I have big ideas for the next chapter. I just can't decide whether to make it Robin and Team centered or Batman and Robin centered. Please leave a review for more.
