NIGHTWING'S POV.
That night the team and 2 batkids decided to sleep in the tower so we all, pretty much, had a giant sleepover in our huge living room.
Starfire, M'gann, Artemis and Zatanna all slept on the big curved couch while Batgirl and Raven both took the two armchairs off to the side of the room. Zatanna conjured up a bunch of sleeping bags for Conner, Wally, Cyborg, Beast Boy, Kaldur and I to sleep in on the floor. We ended up not falling asleep until, like, 2 in the morning due to the fact that we kept finding new stuff to do, from video game tournaments to many games of truth or dare.
Though I hadn't failed to notice the look of worry that laced the leagues face when the team said they were going to sleep in the tower. I was really starting to get sick of all the looks of distrust that were being sent my way. Batman looked about ready to head back to gotham when Batgirl and Robin said they wanted to join in on the sleep over, just to keep them away from me.
But I had come to accept that the league wouldn't trust me until they knew my back story and since that wasn't going to happen I understood they never would trust me. But I couldn't blame them for that, I wouldn't trust me either if I was in their position. I, to them, was a mysterious teenager who was a myth to most of the world and had training from an unknown person. That sounds pretty sketchy when I think about it.

We had all woken up to our trouble alarm so me and the titans had to go into town to help, but, not after weade everyone, including the league, to promise not to help. We did not need league villains in Jump City.
We all piled into the t-car and drove down to the middle of town where we saw Jinx, Gizmo, Psimon and Mammoth causing havoc, which, really, wasn't that unusual.
Cyborg ran at Gizmo, most likely to get revenge on him for taking his arm, while Beast Boy, who was now a very pissed gorrilla, and Starfire both made their way over to Mammoth. Raven levitated over to Jinx and it was a battle between hexes and dark magic over towards them.
I flipped over to Psimon who was looking at me sceptically for some reason. I threw a couple bird-a-rangs at him to distract him and took into account how everyone else was doing.
Cyborg seemed to have taken most of Gizmo's gadgets and was currently holding them above his head, making fun of how short he was while he did so. Starfire was flying over Mammoths head occasionally tapping or kicking his head with her foot so that while he looked up, Beast Boy would punch him in a way only a gorilla could. Raven was holding Jinx, who was surrounded by a black aura, above her head because one of her hexes tore her cloak.
I turned my focus back onto Psimon as I threw down a smoke pellet and started stealthily hitting him with random attacks so that he had no idea where they would come from next.
After about ten minutes of all of us doing our own things Gizmo, Mammoth and Jinx were down. Psimon looked about ready to drop also.
As if on cue I gave him one last blow to the head and he fell to the ground. The rest of the titans surrounded me as he lost consciousness, but, not before saying one last sentence that worried me.
"Why is that Martian Girl in Jump?"

(No POV. back at the tower)
In the Leagues silver jet Batman, Flash, Green Arrow and Superman were all gathered for a strictly league meeting.
They all had one person on their minds.
Nightwing.
They were all worried about the team, even Superman. He and Conner had bonded over the past year since that fateful New Years Eve. None of them wanted to see their precious proteges be corrupted by the bad news they knew Nightwing was. After all he had outright disrespected the league founder, who just so happened to be the FREAKING BATMAN!
They were all thinking the same thing, what if being around him corrupts the team and inspires them to strike out on their own, away from the league. The league was hurt enough when Robin, the first, ran off and dissapeard. Then they got kicked again when the second Robin died. Also Red Arrow was on a mission to find the real Roy. That was three proteges gone within a year. They couldn't stand the thought of losing any more of the team.
Flash, not wanting to wait in worried silence anymore, spoke up.
"OK, so, what are we gonna do? We can't let that mysterious little bird boy corrupt our kids!"
Batman looked over at him, silencing him with a glare and growled out, "That is why we have to find out more about him. In the current moment, I do not believe the Titans know anything about his past, but it couldn't hurt to check. We need to find out who gave him his training, whether it be a hero or villain."
Everyone contemplated his words, trying to think of a hero the league didn't have in its reach, the only one coming up being The Titans. The league tries to contact any heroes, so they know they have backup if ever needed.
Green Arrow spoke up angrily, " Well its obvious what we have to do. We have to physically make sure the team doesn't spend spend too much time with Nightwing. None of them seem to have become that friendly with him, that is, except for Robin and Batgirl."
Everyone's heads swiveled over to Batman who was glaring fiercely at the wall. He especially couldn't handle losing another partner.
Just as he was about to defend the to teens, Superman spoke up.
"He is right Batman, it seems that everyone has found a Titan to hang out with and the only ones who chose Nightwing are Batgirl and Robin. M'gann and Starfire are good friends now. Wally, Cyborg and Beast Boy seem to have bonded. Superboy just hangs around M'gann. Raven and Artemis have bonded as much as those two can. And Aqualad seems to talk to Nightwing, but only about leadership strategies."
All the leaguers had realized they left a certain Sorceress, who had been seen around Nightwing alot, out of the equation and they all came to the same idea at the same time.
"NO ONE TELLS ZATARA!"
