Ok, so i have made it back to the manors gates, now all i have to do is scale it but i have nothing to launch off of-

Front gate opens.

Uhhh ok? No one has come out, well i'm going to take it and role with it. Lydia runs in

Alright the balcony to my temp room should be right around the corner- aha there it is, huh i could of sworn i left the lights on ok all i have to do is climb the tree and jump in onto the balcony and i'm home free- she jumps onto the balcony climbs through the window onto the desk. Then the lights flip on and startles her, she looks and sees alfred standing by the bed.

Shoot.

She climbs off the desk and stands in front of takes off the hoodie and hands it back to him.

I will be gone by the time you guys wake up. She turns to grabs flowers.

May i know why you are leaving miss Lydia?

You're going to kick me out, aren't you?

No, miss Lydia i don't believe that was my intentions.

Well what are you going to do?

I was going to ask you a question. That i want you to be one hundred percent honest. He hands her back the hoodie

Ok." she pulls up the pink chair in front of the desk. "shoot.

What did you do tonight?

Well . . . poop.

You are not going to believe me

You shouldn't jump to conclusions.

I went to get some fresh air and i ended up in crime alley. And when i turned to leave i heard this creepy laugh around the corner, when i went to look i sall the joker and he had corned robin and it looked like robin was low on weapons i couldn't just stand there so i help him and i won well won ish i pind the joker to the wall with the two knives that bruce wanted me to have, then i went and grabbed robin's arm and ran, while we were running i saw what looked like a bat shaped shadow so i let go of robin and ran they followed i lost them on the roofs.

Are you ok?

What?

I said are you ok miss Lydia?

Oh yeah, sorry but why did you ask me that

The joker is a well known villain miss Lydia.

So?

You weren't scared were you miss Lydia?

No, i've seen worse, plus i caught him off guard.

Huh well it is three thirty am so i will suggest you get some sleep, your name is going to purposely be leaked after all.

You say that so nonchalantly.

That is part of this life, he turns to leave.

Hey alfred

Yes miss Lydia.

Thank you

You're quite welcome miss Lydia.

Goodnight alfred

Goodnight miss Lydia.

(break)

The next day

Good morning master dick, why are you wearing sunglasses if i may ask?

The bruise on my eye is bad

Master dick it the middle of summer break, i don't know of anywhere you are going.

I don't want Lydia to see, and i don't know how to cover it up without her noticing.

Ahh i see,

Good morning alfred, dick

Hey Lydia

Why good morning to you miss Lydia

What's with the glasses dick?

No reason

Okay?

So master dick have any plans today

Lydia starts sneaking up in dick

No i don't have any plans today what about you Lydia- Lydia snached the sunglasses off of dicks face.

Ah ha-

Hey!

Dick what happened?

Ahh some one didn't see me and turned around and accidentally punched me.

And this happens at your guys meetings a lot?

No

Oh ah ok

Young masters breakfast is ready.

Ok thank you alfred

A few minutes later. Lydia see someone in the garden with a microphone

Umm are you guys expecting someone with a microphone?

Oh it the press, did anybody tell you what is going on?

Only that my name was going to be purposely ''leaked''

Oh ok well what is happening is we are slowly letting gotham know that you are here, but they will only know what we are telling them so during a meeting yesterday i ( dick does hand quote signs ) ''accidently'' said your name. So i purposely leaked you're name which got the press thinking which is why the press is here. Dick explained

But doesn't the press send out stories even if they aren't true?

Oh all the time

Then what are they going to say about you're black eye?

Dick and alfred exchange looks

Well that wasn't part of the plan.

And the stories about master dick would truly be horrible

Well we can't let that happen

your right Lydia we can't but there isn't anything we can do

Yes there is. Lydia stands up

Dick come with me

He gets up and leaves

Young masters what would you like me to do with your breakfast?

Lydia pokes her head through the door frame

We will be back down in 5, can you please leave it, it will look like nothing happened if the press comes around the corner and looks to the window and see us eating.

Ahh miss Lydia, i believe you have learned the way of the press.

Well i am an ex performer

(break)

In Lydia's room.

So what are we going to do?

So i can talk but i don't want sympathy, deal?

Sure

Ok when i lived with miss jane and rudy they would hit me-

They abused you

-and miss dinah gave me a makeup kit yesterday, and because of my past i know how to cover bruises really well. She pulls her pink chair from her desk.

Wait your going to have me wear makeup?

Do you have a better idea?

No

Then sit.

( break )

Dick and Lydia come running into the dining room, alfred looks at dick

Nicely done miss Lydia, it looks like nothing happened,

Thanks alfred.

If you see the press in the window tell my while you look at them concerned.

A few minutes later.

Hey dick the press is here. Dick looks over his shoulder. Ok now you're going to get up and run up stairs i will shut the curtains.

Lydia runs up to her room.

(break)

In her room.

Ok now what do i do?

There is some ruffling by her window

What was that?

She walks to her window. Just in time as a rock comes through her window, she backbinds right before it could hit her. And someone with a camera climbs through.

your not a hero, so be average and scream then run out of the room, be normal.

(breaks)

Downstairs

I think that went well alfred.

I would have to agree- they hear a high pitch scream. And they run to the source.

Why is he following me?

Come on little girl smile for the camera. As he chases her down the hall.

Ahhhhh! She screams again. Get away from me!

Miss Lydia- she runs up to alfred and hugs him he hugs her back.

He is chasing me i don't know what to do.

Alfred looks at the guy with the camera

I have already called the police, so you can either get arrested for terrorizing these kids or get off this property.

He runs past them and out the front door. Lydia lets go of alfred and looks at dick and alfred

Did i play the scared little girl roll right?

Perfect Lydia, you did awesome.

Sorry if i overdid it with the hugging alfred.

Don't be miss Lydia, I will always accept hugs miss Lydia.

Ok i'll keep that in mine.

Ok well that still went well.

Hm

You disagree miss Lydia

I am really really sorry

For what miss Lydia.

The way that guy got in was through my window

You left your window open Lydia. Dick comments

No i didn't i um he- it will be easier just to show you. And she turns for her room. Just please know that i am really sorry.

At Lydia's room door

So he came in- she opens her door- by throwing a rock through the window, than he climbed through the broken window.

Are you ok? Dick asks

Yea it missed me

There is glass all over the place, so you two go run along. Alfred assures them out

Are you sure you don't need help alfred?

I'm sure miss Lydia, but thank you for offering.

They hear a buzzing from dick's pocket, he pulls out a weird looking phone.

I ah have to go. Cya

Ah bye dick.

Well alfred since you don't need my help i'll be in the library if that's ok?

Of course miss Lydia.

(break)

This is weird, dick was noncholt about the window, he had a black eye on the same eye as robin, and he and bruce have "meetings'' every night bruce is the same height as batman.

She smirks

Well it looks like i get to mess with some heads tonight.
