Chapter 38: Tree Tops

Jason's POV

"Todd! Todd!"

I signed as Damian ran over to me and started screaming at me while tugging on my arm. Cant he see that I'm on my napping couch? This is where I nap. Just leave me alone.

"Todd, please. I need you." He begged, tears forming in his eyes.

I looked up at him. It's weird seeing him on the verge of tears. "Damian, what's wrong?"

"It's Alfred… he's… he's stuck in a tree." He sobbed.

I shot up off of the couch. "What! Why the hell is Alfred in a tree! I thought he was with Tim getting Tim's allergy shot!"

"No you moron! Not Pennyworth! Alfred, my cat is in the tree!" he screamed.

Oh for the love of God! "Damian, it's a cat. Cats climb trees. It'll come down when its ready. Besides, you already have like fifty spare cats in your room in case it dies or whatever." I replied before returning to my couch.

"No! He's trapped and scared and… please. Help me." he pleaded.

"What tree?"

********Break********

This is ridiculous. Damian and I stood looking up at the biggest freaking tree on the property. Wonder if I could just shoot it out of the tree? "Damian, that tree is like a thousand feet tall! Your cat can climb its little furry ass down here."

"It's only exactly 54 feet and two inches tall. Besides, it's not even the tallest tree on the property. Please Todd." He begged.

"Can I shoot it down?"

"No!"

"Couldn't you just train your turkey to fly up there and get your cat?"

"No! Franklin is afraid of heights, you fool!"

What the hell! Since when is a freaking bird afraid of heights! It can fly!

"No way in hell am I going to scale some tree for a freaking cat." I replied as tears started to form in the corners of his eyes. Damn. He's crying. "Okay! Okay! I'll go break my neck for your ball of fur. Just stop crying."

********Break********

"Okay. Don't look down. Don't look down." I mumble while scaling the freaking tree. "Come here, you little fuzzy bastard." I mutter at the cat staring down at me like I'm retarded for climbing a tree. "Damn you, Alfred. Can't you keep your cat ass on the ground?"

"Meow." It mocked me.

As I climbed onto the highest freaking branch where the bastard was located, the cat backed away and hissed at me. Asshole! "If you bite me, I'll throw your ass outa the tree! Then we'll see if cats land on their feet! And then we'll see what life you're on!" I threatened.

It hissed again and swiped at me with its claws.

"Jason! What in the hell are you doing!"

I looked down to find Dick staring up at me. Oh shit! I looked down! Angels could fall and die from this height!

Ignoring Dick, I lunged for the cat. It jumped and landed on the branch beneath us. And that's when I fell off the damn tree.

Damian's POV

To my horror, Todd fell from the tree. How dare he fall and leave Alfred all alone! Yet, Todd was mainly uninjured. He managed to hit almost every branch and Grayson broke his fall. The two lay moaning at my feet.

"Meow."

To my delight, Alfred began descending the tree and leapt into my outstretched arms.

"Alfred, you're unharmed!" I exclaimed, as he began purring. Turning from the two fools on the ground, I headed for the mansion.

"Damian, what are Dick and Jason doing on the ground?" Father asked, suddenly coming outside. He must have just returned from the company.

"Todd fell out of the tree and landed on Grayson." I replied, before walking away.

"Richard John Grayson-Wayne! Jason Peter Todd-Wayne! How many times do I have to tell the two of you to leave the big trees alone and go play in the cave!" Father ranted as Grayson and Todd groaned in response.

Just wanted to say thanks for the reviews I've been getting! And thanks for all the good luck wishes I've gotten for school! (I'll need all the luck I can get) I'll have some of the requests finished soon (Sorry its taking so long, but I've been really busy.)

Oh, and to the guest reviewer (not really sure who you are) who sent me the request about Damian and Tim fighting over Bruce, your request has been added to my list.

And to The Rambler, your request should be published next.

And to The Greatest Wuss to Walk this Planet, (not sure how else to identify you) thank you for your review and you shouldn't feel embarrassed about reading Fanfiction. You'd be surprised about how many people actually read it. Life's too short to be anything but yourself.
