Meeting Lois Lane
Lois was in Gotham to get the latest update on Gotham's favorite billionaire playboy. It was big new and Lois was sent to Gotham to get the update. Bruce Wayne had recently adopted or took in the circus kid Richard Grayson after the death of his parents. She was supposed to get the inside scoop, also there were apparent sightings of a new hero next to Batman on occasion and she was going to figure out that mystery too. But that would be the cherry on top if she got lucky.
Sighing she walked into Wayne Enterprises and looked around the large building. It was a diamond in the rough of Gotham. She walked up to the front desk and checked herself in. Getting a visitor badge and a temporary key pass she walked to the private elevator. This was not her fist time getting the exclusive on Bruce Wayne, so this was nothing about this was new. Swiping the card the elevator doors opened and she let herself in. There was only one stop this elevator made and it was Bruce Wayne's private office. The elevator opened into a hallway that led to a secretary's desk.
"Hello Miss Lane," the woman at the desk smiled. "He's wait for you, let yourself in," she said. Lois smiled and nodded. Opening the large wooden door she saw something she thought she would never see. Bruce Wayne was holding a small child in his arms. The boy had raven black hair and stunning blue eyes. Bruce was on the phone as he turned to look at Lois.
"I got to go, but please make sure that it gets done…" Bruce hung up the phone and gave his winning smile to Lois. "Hello Lois," Bruce said. Lois smiled, she and Bruce had finally made it to first name basis, it had taken awhile to get away from "Ms. Lane" and "Mr. Wayne" but they made.
"Hello Bruce," she said walking over to the man and boy. "And who is this?" she cooed. The boy sheltered himself by burrowing himself into Bruce's chest.
"Dickie, be nice and say hello to Ms. Lane," Bruce smiled looking down at the shy boy. The boy raised his head to look at Lois and gave a small smile.
"Hello," he said quickly.
"Hello, you must be Richard Grayson," she smiled. "I am Lois Lane, reporter for the Daily Planet."
"Hello Ms. Lane," the boy said again.
"Oh don't be shy, I am not like those other reporters I am sure you know," Lois added with a wink. Dick looked at her and smiled.
"So you wanted to do an interview?" Bruce asked.
"Oh, yes," Lois smiled. "I was hoping that you and Richard would be willing to answer a few questions," she added.
"Dick?" Bruce asked looking down at the boy in his arms. "Would you like to answer some of Ms. Lane's questions?" Dick seemed to think for a moment.
"If I answer them do you think she'll tell me about Superman?" he asked.
"I don't know, why don't you ask her?" Bruce asked laughing. Dick nodded and looked at Lois.
"If I answer a question can I ask one about Superman?" he asked. Lois smiled at the boy's request.
"I would love to," Lois answered. The boy smile widened and the three went and sat down on the couches sitting across from each other Dick sitting on Bruce's lap.
"Promise?" Dick eyed.
"Promise."
"Okay Lois ask away," Bruce smiled giving the reporter his famous wink. Lois laughed a bit and looked down at her note pad and then back up at Bruce.
"So Bruce what made you want to take in Richard in the first place? Some people are saying that it's a charity case," Lois said getting to point quickly. Bruce's eyes seemed to narrow dangerously.
"I took him in because there was no place for him to go. When I first met Dick I knew he was special and after the…" Bruce seemed to look for the proper wording. "Accident, I didn't want to see Dick be alone. Also he needed a safe place to stay," Bruce added. Lois nodded as she recorded his answer. "Taking Dick in was not because of charity, it was because I wanted him to have a life."
"Okay then. Dick, what is it like to live with the famous playboy Bruce Wayne? You can be honest," she added she looked over the boy and noted that he had a bruise on the side of his face and quickly jotted it down.
"It's great!" Dick said quickly. "Bruce is so nice! He saved me from…" Dick paused obviously not wanting to finish his sentence. "The orphanage…" he said quietly. Lois noted it down. "My turn to ask a question!" Dick added. "Are you and Superman dating?" Lois blushed some.
"Dick, I don't think…" Bruce started sternly.
"No, it's okay," Lois smiled. "I made a promise," Lois added. "Superman and I have a close working relationship," she answered. Dick thought for a moment and smiled wickedly for a moment only for his face to go back to an innocent look. Looking back down at her pad a little surprised she picked her next question.
"Bruce, what do you enjoy doing with Dick?" Lois asked. Bruce thought for a moment.
"Well, we go out from time to time. We go hiking and camping when the weather and work allows it. But mostly I enjoy hanging out with him," Bruce said.
"Define 'hanging out'," Lois asked innocently.
"If you are suggesting Bruce abuses me you couldn't be more wrong," Dick said interrupting the conversation. "This bruise was from trying to flip off the banister, landed wrong and now I am grounded for a week," Dick said pointing to it. Which was a lie, but he couldn't really say that the Joker gave it to him a few nights ago… And he was grounded for a week, but that was because he decided to bedazzle Flash's costume. As funny as it was Bruce had to ground him to discourage further said behavior. Although if Dick had chosen his or someone else's costumes with the exception of a few, Dick would have been grounded for a month or two.
"I wasn't suggesting anything," Lois said. "I am just trying to find out a little more, there are a lot of questions," she added.
"Yeah well, it's none of yours of theirs business," Dick stated flatly. Something strange seemed to be set off in Dick, something dark. Lois wanted to shudder but held back.
"Dick calm down," Bruce said calmly. The air around Dick seemed to lighten some and Dick smiled up at Bruce.
"So," Lois started trying to regain her composure. "Dick, you said you tried to flip off the banister?"
"I grew up in a circus," Dick shrugged. "I am also an acrobat," he added. "I like to be in the air whenever I have the chance," his voice sounded wistful.
"Can you give me a demonstration?" Lois asked. She knew Richard was once apart of the Flying Graysons supposedly the most amazing acrobatic act in the world at one time.
"You already asked a question," Dick smirked. "So are you and Clark Kent going out?" he asked. Lois stopped.
"How do you know…" she was going to ask how he knew Clark but then stopped. Dick probably met Clark Kent because he was doing a report on something. Wayne tended to choose Smallville for interviews, in fact if Kent wasn't on leave then he would be doing this interview. Kent always got the Wayne interviews… "Never mind," she stated. "No nothing is going on between Clark and I."
"Right," Dick smirked. "You wanted a demonstration?" Dick asked climbing out of Bruce's lap. Standing on the head of the couch he jumped and did a few twists and turns only to land on the coffee table in front of Lois his arms held high. "Ta da!" he smiled bowing. Lois felt herself breath again only to realize that her breath was held tight in anticipation.
"Bravo," she smiled clapping her hands together. Dick bowed again and jumped off the table and climbed into Bruce's lap. The interview went on and got better. She found herself enjoying the company. Bruce seemed to adore Dick like a son and Dick loved Bruce like a father. Bruce also seemed to change from the playboy billionaire to a caring father, but Dick assured Lois that Bruce was still making the round with the ladies. After the interview Lois left and was happy with how the interview went.

Lois got into a cab and told the taxi driver to take her to the airport. She looked over her notes and thought about how she was going to write the interview. She the felt a sudden jerk and the car stopped. "COME ON OUT PRETTY LOIS LANE!" a crazed voice yelled. Lois looked out her window and saw the Joker running around the street with a large machine gun and Harley Quinn with a large bazooka.
"COME ON OUT AND WE CAN TALK! If not," the Joker's voice got eerily quiet. "I'll start blowing up cars," the Joker started to laugh happily.
"Oh, 'mister J, you're so cute when you laugh," Harley smiled happily. "Puddn' ya think we can get Italian tonight?" she asked randomly. Joker laughed.
"Italian sounds great! We can have a side of Lois Lane!" he added. "Speaking of which, LOIS LANE? Where are you?" he laughed happily skipping down the rows of cars with terrified people. Lois slowly got out of the cab and looked towards the clown prince of crime.
"What do you want Joker?" she demanded.
"You're little man in blue!" he smiled rushing over and grabbing her. "Let's go, go, GO!" Joker yelled happily.
"Why do you want Superman?" Lois demanded.
"Well, I am growing bored of Battybat here, figured I should try something NEW!" he yelled gleefully.
"Let her go Joker!" yelled a young voice.
"Birdy Boy!" Joker screamed happily. "Bird boy, bird boy! How's for face?" Joker asked. Suddenly a young boy jumped from a building flipping and turning landing safely on the ground. Harley was already tied up, obviously they took her out while Joker was busy. Lois saw a young boy no older then Dick dressed in bright red with a canary yellow cape, green pixie boots and a domino mask. Behind him was Batman the two seemed to clash in every possible way. The bright little boy next to the dark scary man it was interesting. Suddenly it clicked in Lois' head, this was the boy that was rumored to have appeared in Gotham.
"Boy Blunder, Batty how are you? I've missed you!" he yelled. Suddenly there was a knife at Lois' throat. Lois felt her heart skip a beat, Joker would kill her.
"Let her go," Batman growled. Suddenly there was a flying bat-a-rang and it was all over in a flash, Flash would have been proud. Lois watched in amazement. The two worked so well together, the boy was serious in the fight, dark, almost as dark as Batman. The aura was familiar but was different. The boy and Batman fought as one and took down the Joker quickly. He was obviously on an off day, it was normal to take him down this quickly. Lois felt a hand on her shoulder.
"Are you okay?" the boy asked. Lois nodded. "Good the police are on their way I suggest you wait here for them," he explained.
"Who are you?" she asked. The boy cackled.
"Robin we have to go!" Batman called carrying an unconscious Joker and Harley Quinn. "Robin" turned towards Lois and smiled wickedly.
"Robin, Boy Wonder, you can quote that," he said and with a cackle he vanished into the night with Batman.

"LOOK! Uncle Clark! I made the paper! TWICE!" Robin yelled rushing towards the man of steel and the dark knight up in the Watchtower. Robin held up an issue of the Daily Planet.
