Disclaimer: Again I must say that nothing is mine but the words I've typed on the screen, the plot is mine but the characters and most of the setting I am afraid belong to Warner Bros. and DC comics. Those companies are not mine in anyway shape or form and will probably never be.

Cyborg was watching the news, Raven was reading another book; Hamlet by William Shakespeare; and Beast Boy was looking through his entire CD collection. Everyone in the tower was nervous. They hadn't heard from Starfire in a few days and they had a feeling that something bad had happened to her.
Then the phone rang. Cyborg being the closest beat the other two in picking it up.
"Hello?" he answered. "Starfire!"
Beast Boy and Raven were listening intently on his conversation.
"Where are you? We've been so worried!" he stopped to hear her answer. "Gotham seriously?! Ok we'll be right there stay put! Bye." He hung up the phone and turned to Raven and Beast Boy.
"Guys Star's in Gotham city rooming with the billionaire Bruce Wayne!" they just stared at him relieved that she was ok. "She wants us there pronto. She said there was something she found out."
"Ok let's go!" Beast Boy said enthusiastically and they all ran to the T- car.
Normally it would've taken a number of hours to get to Gotham but not with this group of heroes. They made it there in half the time.
Wayne Manor was a huge building with lots of large windows. It had a large black gate around the entire estate. The property was covered in many types of shrubs and brilliantly colored flowers were scattered in various patches.
They didn't have to stop at the gate because it was already open. They drove up past the shrubs and flowers and parked in front of the stairs that led to the large oak front doors. They got out of the car quickly and ran up the stone steps and used the large brass door knocker. An older gentleman opened the door for them.
"Good afternoon," he said in a kind British accent. "You must be........."
"My friends!" came a happy voice from behind him.
Starfire rushed foreword and grabbed them all in a hug; even the extremely reluctant Raven.
"I've found out so much and there are two people I would like you to meet," she said turning toward Alfred. "This is my new friend Alfred!"
They all smiled and shook his hand.
"And there is also Mr. Bruce Wayne who.........," she was cut off as a deep voice came from behind her.
"Hello there Titans. I am Bruce Wayne. I think there are a few things we must talk about."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------
They all sat down at an extremely large polished oak table.
"I know that we all have questions for each other so why don't you start. What would you like to know?" Bruce Wayne said.
"Sir," Raven spoke up and voiced the question that plagued all of their minds. "How did you know Robin? Who was he really?"
Bruce Wayne sighed.
"His name was Richard Grayson but everyone called him Dick. Well he grew up in a circus I owned," Bruce started. "He and his mother and father were the star acrobats; The Flying Grayson's. They never used nets in their acts.
"They were in the middle of one of their acts when a man they called Tony Zuccco cut the line and they fell to their deaths. I was in the stands that evening and I saw the whole thing but I wasn't quick enough to save them.
"Dick was left an orphan like I was at his age. I became his legal guardian. Then he found out my secret."
Everyone looked at him confusedly. He stood up and beckoned them to follow. He led them to a bookcase.
"What you are about to find out is our little secret. You must tell no one. Understand?" he said in his gruff voice.
They all nodded. He pushed the bookcase and it swiveled to show a hidden stairway. They all followed him down into the dark room below and stared in disbelief at the cave like surroundings.
"Robin found out my secret. I am Batman."
He led them to the table Starfire sat at when she first arrived and he continued with his story.
"He became my sidekick Robin. His mother used that name for him because he was born on the first day of spring. He formed the Teen Titans when he decided it was time for him to leave the manor.
"He was like a son to me and I loved him so much. Now I wish he never left Gotham. I wish I never let him go."
