*Sorry to all my loyal followers! Life got to much in the way. Here is the final installment of Teen Titans: Untold Past!
Chapter 21-
The Titans watched as Batgirl pulled out the bullet in Robin's side and patch him up. The bullet had clipped a rib, but other than that, he was fine.
"You're just going to need some rest." Batgirl said to Robin, who was sitting up from the operation table.
"Yeah, sure thing doc." He smiled. He was overjoyed to see his old partner. His sister. He put back on his shirt. Walking towards the stone stair case, he called back to his friends, "Hang on. I need to see someone." Then he disappeared through the corridor.
"Um, okay…" Beast Boy sighed. Batgirl was cleaning up the table. She turned to see the puzzlement of the Titans faces and chuckled.
"That leads to our house. He has an old friend up there: Agent A. Ask Robin about him later." Star floated down next to Batgirl.
"Thank you." She said. "For everything. I apologize for not liking you at first."
"Don't sweat it. You seem like you had a reason not to like competition, if you know what I mean." She gave Star a nudge and winked her eye. Starfire didn't have clue what she meant, but smiled and nodded anyway.
"You're alright!" Cyborg yelled, patting Batgirl on the back. "You can visit anytime."
"Thanks. I will." Batgirl laughed. Robin dashed back down the stairs, a smile on his face. He looked a lot happier.
"Alright team. Let's go home!" He gave Batgirl a hug as the other Titans piled into the T- car.
"I'll be back. You can count on that."
"And I'll be waiting." She said back to him. Beast Boy honked the car horn and shouted "Let's go dude! I gotta catch up on Mega Monkeys Four!" He was promptly smacked by Raven.
As Robin sprinted to the car, Batgirl shouted after him, "And make a move on the alien already!" All the response she got was Robin's intoxicating laughter filling the cave. She watched as they drove away. Sighing, she turned back to the computer screen. Then the monitor began to flash. The screeching sound of tires on pavement filled her ears as the batmobile flew into the cave. Batman jumped out and ran to her.
"Where is he?" His deep voice said franticly. "Is he-"
"Whoa there Bruce!" Batgirl cut him off. "He's okay. We found him."
"We?"
"His team and I. You should really meet them. They're great." Batman thought for a moment and rushed upstairs.
"Nice to see you too." Batgirl laughed dryly. Even with all the years she had lived with him, she still thought he was unpredictable.
Bruce Wayne moved through Dick's old room. It still had a perfectly made bed and neat desk, just like the day he had left. Dick hated messes. He went over to the desk to look at an old picture Dick kept there of them fishing together. He loved that picture. But when he went to pick it up, it was gone. In its place was a letter.
Dear Bruce,
I hope you don't mind if I take this picture back with me. It's one of my favorites. I'm really sorry about what happened that night, and I hope you're still not angry. I miss you. I don't care if I'm a hero or not; you'll always be my dad.
Dick
Bruce folded the letter and put it into his pocket. Maybe he would check out Robin's new team…
Robin sat in the back seat of the car, his hands folded around a picture of a small boy with black hair, and an older, handsome man in a fishing boat. The man was helping the boy reel in his first fish, a look of pride on his face. The boy wore a large grin. The moment of pure bliss caught forever in a photograph. Robin smiled.
He faintly heard Beast Boy and Cyborg fighting about what to get for dinner and Raven calling them both idiots. Everything was back to normal, yet it had all changed somehow. Robin didn't feel the same, he felt different. Better. As if something bad that had been in his heart for a long time was finally gone. He leaned against the glass of the window and let the warmth of the setting sun flow over his face.
"Robin?' Starfire asked from beside him.
"Hm?"
"What is that?" She pointed to the photo.
"A memory I plan to hold on to."
"And who is that man?" Robin sat up and handed her the picture. "That's my dad, and you guys should really meet him…"
