Part 2
Now what should I do? Dick wondered as he and Lisa got out of his car and looked at the apartment complex in front of them. Lisa stood there watching as an Asian woman was talking with an elder man. Dick in the mean time, opened the trunk and took out the back pack his sister had brought, along with another small luggage Donna had given her with clothing, magazines, make up, and who knows what. The back pack itself wasn't small at all, and Dick had soon realized that it most certainly weighted at least 30 pounds. She must have her 'costume' with her, he though as he moved closer to her after closing the trunk. "Lets go," he told her with a happy tone, "I'll show you around."
As they got closer to the stoop, the young woman turned and waved at them. "Hey Dick, where ya been?" "Hi Clance, hi John," Dick said as they reached them, "I was in New York to pick up my sister from the Airport." Lisa stepped closer as Dick introduced her to them. "Clancy, John, this is my sister, Lisa. She came from..ah.." "France," Lisa said as she shacked their hand, "nice to meet you guys." "Its nice to see that young Richard here really does have family," Mr. Law said with a gentle smile, "but then again his little brother has been here before too." "Yeah, well," Dick said as he walked into the apartment, "we're both kinda tired, so we'll catch you guys later. Oh, and Clancy, tell me later if you have an extra room."
"So this is the place where a great detective like you works in?" Dick chuckled at Lisa's question as he laid the stuff in his couch. He apartment was a mess, clothing and magazines were everywhere. What can I do to distract Lisa long enough to clean my apartment? I got it, Dick though as he picked up the phone. "Make your self at home, Lisa." She moved a few shirts from the couch and sat next to her stuff. She opened her stuff and looked for her cd player while her brother did what he was doing. "Look," he said as he talked into the phone, "you owe me one, remember? Now, its a mission 236-A, got it? Yeah, that. Look, come in half an hour if you can, okay, thanks." He turns to look at Lisa as she listened to her cd player. "Who you listening to?" Dick asked as he walked towards the bathroom. "Bone Thugs, why? You like them?" "They okay," Dick said as he pulled out his tooth brush, "but I prefer Tha Eastsidaz. Anyway, I think we should go to Gotham for some time. Maybe tell Bruce and Barbara." "Hey Dick," Lisa said as she got up and moved towards him after putting down her stuff, "who's the person the man said was your brother?" Dick smiled as he finished brushing his teeth and turned to see her. "That was Tim. He visits a few times." "Tim? Who's that?" "Remember what I told you about Jason's death? Well, after that a 13 year old boy named Tim Drake came up to me saying that he knew everything about me being the former Robin and all that stuff. He said that Bruce needed help, but more importantly, he needed Robin. In the end, I helped out and Tim became the third Robin. He's like a bro to me." "So," Lisa said, "how are we gonna tell Bruce?"
*****
"Yes?" "Bruce, its me, I'm heading towards Gotham. Listen, can I see you right now? I have some news that you need to know." "I'm here with Tim, Cassandra and Alfred. Would they need to know too?" "Yeah, this is family business. Also, can you send Alfred to pick up Barbara, she needs to know this too." "I will. Is this an emergency?" "No, it's just one of those situations you need to know about. Bye."
Dick turned to look at Lisa. Was she really his sister? He turned back to face the road as the cars finally began to move. Dick handed back Lisa her cell phone as he turned on the radio. "Can't believe your cell phone works in this dimension. So who trained you?" Lisa changed the radio station as she replied. "You and Bruce trained me when I was younger. After he died, I settled with the Titans, and that's where Donna trained me." Dick grinned as he made a left turn. "So was I also fired in your time?" "Yeah, when you got shot, right? After that, I was kinda stuck in the middle. I worked with both you and him, but mostly him." "Must have been hard for you then. So was Babs shot in your time?" "Shot? When?" Lisa looked over at Dick with a concern look that made Dick feel like an older brother. Yep, she's my sister. "The Joker shot her in the spine, so she's paralyzed for life I'm afraid." "What?! That didn't happen in my time. She was still Batgirl when I left."
Dick made another turn as soon as the light turned green. He knew very well all the short cuts, but he needed them all there in time, so he was taking the long way. Dick had never imagined that he would have a little sister, and for some reason, he wanted a little sister. Oh sure, Cassandra was like a little sister, but not from the same blood. "So what does Babs do now?" Dick looked over quickly at Lisa as she looked out the window. "She's into information," Dick said, "she calls herself Oracle. When we need some information on someone, we call her. She's mostly at the Clock Tower with Dinah or Cassandra." "Who's Cassandra?" "The new Batgirl. Don't worry, you'll meet her."
"We made it," Dick said as he entered the main gate, "guess your still tired, huh?" During the little road trip, Lisa had fallen asleep. "Yeah," Lisa said as she stretched, "I haven't really slept." She smiled as she looked at the mansion where she was raised in her time. She had spent most of her life here, and yet she couldn't remember the last time she had seen the building. Dick had told her earlier that Gotham had gone through a big earthquake that destroyed most of the city, including the manor, but now it has been rebuilt as well as most of Gotham. "What should we do? I mean, its not like he knows who I am." "Don't worry," Dick said as he parked in the main garage, "that's why I had Vic make me those copies."
As they walked towards the entrance, they spotted Alfred opening the front door, dressed as usual. He smiled as he gave Dick a quick hug. "Its good to see you, Master Richard." "Its good to see you too Alfred." In the mean time, Lisa looked over at Alfred as she remembered the early days when he was still around. Sadly, he disappeared shortly after Bruce's death in her time. "Oh, Alfred," Dick said turning towards Lisa, "for now this is Lisa." "Hi," Lisa said while shaking his hand, "nice to meet you." "The pleasure is all mine, Miss Lisa," Alfred says as he gently kisses her hand, "please, come in." They walked down the hall as they approached the main living room with Alfred in the lead. As they arrived, they notice every sitting around talking while Bruce stood staring at the portrait he had of his parents. Burce turned as Alfred announced their guests. "Master Richard and Miss Lisa have arrived." Lisa smiled as Alfred led her to have a seat as Dick began to explain. "I called you all here today because a short while ago, I received some unexpected news. By the way, Lisa, come here." Lisa stood up and walked right next to Dick as Bruce moved behind Barbara.
"This is Lisa Grayson, my sister." "Sister??!!" Dick had to admit, the look they were giving them was priceless. "She came from an alternate universe in which I have a sister. She was raised the same way I was, only in her time the world was killed by Jason." "Jason? As in Jason Todd?" Dick turned towards Tim with a 'give me a brake' look. "Who else do we know as Jason?" "Jason Bard." Dick turned to see Barbara and smiled. "Oh yeah, then there's that asshole." "Asshole, huh? I guess we aren't going out this Friday." "Yeah, right. As if you wouldn't call Kory a bitch." "Point taken. Continue with your story. I'll think about our date in the mean time." "Anyway," Dick said with a smile, "in Lisa's time, Joker killed Bruce and Jason went crazy. Luthor made a bomb that was to let out a disease that would kill a person in minutes. Before all that, Star Labs created a time machine, and that's how Lisa is here. The only problem, well, not really a problem, is that it could only send people to other times, not return them. So she's stuck with us." "And we're suppose to believe this?" Bruce asked as he stepped closer to Dick, "Do you have evidence proving her story?"
Dick grinned as he pulled out a vanilla folder that he had been holding. "This is her dna test that we did. Everything you need to know is there." As Bruce looked over the folder, Cassandra walked up to them and extended her arm. "I believe. Nice to..meet you." "Lisa, this is Cassandra Cain." Lisa shocked her hand as she smiled and said her hello. Tim also extended his hand to her as he could see clearly that Lisa and Dick did look alike. Bruce finally came to a conclusion, and realized that she truly was Dick's sister. "Well," Bruce began as he gave Lisa his hand, "welcome to our family." Lisa smiled as she blushed slightly. She knew very well that he still doesn't believe her, but at least he's trying. Barbara also moved towards her. As the group got to know each other more, Bruce asked to talk with Dick alone. "Still don't believe her, Bruce?" "No. The dna test does come out, but I still have a hard time believing that you have a sister." "Yeah," Dick said as he turned and looked at Lisa with the others, "I can relate. That is, until I saw her photo album."
"Photo album?" "Yeah, she brought it with her. She has it back at my apartment. It showed picture of all of us, even of my mom and dad." "So what did she say about your unclean apartment?" "Ha, very funny. I called someone to go clean it up. He owed me." "Who?" Dick smiled. "Plastic Man." "I won't ask. So what are you going to do?" "What do you mean?" Bruce smiled as he looked over at Lisa, and as soon as Dick turned, he notice that everyone was staring at them. "I mean is she going to be in Bludhaven?" "Of course, why?" Barbara wheeled herself closer to them as she answered Dick's question. "Dick, don't you think Bludhaven is a little too much for her. I mean, just look how corrupted that place is." Lisa in the mean time was relieved that they believed her for this long. "Maybe she can stay here," Dick said turning back to Bruce, "just until you see her in action. Then you can tell me if she's good enough." "Well, I was just going on patrol, maybe she could come." They turned to Lisa as she smiled. "Sure, why not? I have my costume in the trunk in Dick's car."
