Chapter 3: Memories
Robin lay on his bed staring up at the ceiling with the same two thoughts running through his head. How could she be here? Why is she here? He hadn't recognized her at first, her hair was down and she was soaked through. When he saw her eyes something came to him but nothing her identity hadn't dawned on him until she had spoken. His name coming from her lips bought back so many memories. Some he didn't mind remembering and some he had wanted to forget forever.
There had been life changing moments in those memories as well as life changing choices and decisions. His life had always been full of entertainment and action, not one day was boring, even if there were no criminals to chase after. Just being with Bruce and her made it entertaining in its own way because she had trusted them both with her dark secrets.
Of course he had been the hard one to trust. Bruce was the one who had found her and given her a home and raised her in a sense of the word, but him? He had been a lot harder to trust. But in the end she had trusted him, but only after they shared one breathtaking memory. One memory that excited and scared him to this very day.
They had both been kidnapped by the Joker. Him as Dick Grayson and her as Amber Wayne, the Joker had no idea of their help with Batman. All the Joker knew was that Batman had a weak spot when it came to kids and these two were one's that always seemed to know the most about him. So the two had been tied together, back to back, and left in a cell in the basement of some building.
Nothing was said during that time but the two developed a friendship over the next 3 hours. Then she had spoken and said that she trusted him, as if he had just passed some crucial test. She said that she would tell him all her about her past and her secrets if he would share his. So they did, he told her everything and in exchange she told him.
When Batman rescued them later there had been nothing not shared between the two and they had become best friends and the greatest of allies. Whenever they fought they constantly watched out for one another, making sure Batman didn't have to worry so he could go and take care of the main problem. They had always worked so well as a team and then…
Robin sighed as he shut his eyes. They had drifted apart. He didn't know how, all he knew was that they had and now she was here. She had found him after all these years and he had a feeling it wasn't for a social visit and some catching up time.
He opened his eyes and sat up on his bed. It was time he went to see her, he couldn't ignore her forever. Also he was curious; he had to admit it to himself. Her arrival puzzled him and made him wonder if anything had happened. She had so many secrets and so many fears. With her heritage came a great responsibility and terrible powers. He wondered if something had happened to her to make her powers go against her or they had been stolen from her. Or maybe she had been found out, shown for who she really was beneath it all.
He stood up and opened the door heading down the corridor to where she had been placed. Cyborg had taken her to the sick bay and given her a check-up. All he could conclude, from what Robin had allowed him to look at, was that she had been soaked and chilled and could have a small fever and a cold. So they had given her one of the spare rooms, bundled her up with blankets and hot drinks and a hot water bottle. Then they sat with her, waiting for her to wake up so she could give them some answers.
He had left the room while she was still unconscious to think and, now that his thoughts were pretty much sorted out, he wanted to go back and check on her. He pushed open the door to her room and looked around at all the other Titans. Then he looked over to her bed and saw her sitting up, her big sapphire eyes looking intently at him.
He sat down in the extra chair around her bed that the others had placed there for him for whenever he had decided to return. He stared right back at her and then sighed and looked around the room at his team members. "Guys I'd like you to meet Luna, my old crime fighting associate from when I lived in Gotham."
Robin just watched as their mouths dropped open at his words. "Dude!" was all Beast Boy managed to say and the others remained speechless. For what could you say after a team mate showed, literally, some more of his past? She used to be just a memory to the boy wonder but now she was here in front of him, and he needed to face her as he would to anyone…head on.
Another chappie down! So how did you all like it? I stayed more on Robin's feelings about this more than anything because he's the one who knows her. Pick up on any hints to her powers that I mentioned? Hope so! If not, it will all be explained in time. Now I need to get working on the next chapter and you all need to review! Also if yo udon't like the DBZ idea tell me now before i keep writting! So…REVIEW PLEASE! I need proof that SOMEONE is reading my story!
