Chapter 20:

After leaving the cave Wally hung out with Dick playing a racing game (Which Dick won most of the time) until his uncle called at 6:34 pm and told him he had to come home for dinner. Dick continued racing against random oponents (Again he won the majority of the races). At 8:00 pm his comm link activated and Artemis voice came through

"Hey Robin?"

"What is it Artie?"

"I just wanted to ask you something"

"What?"

"I'd rather you come to the cave so I can explain"

"Sure, I'll go ask Bats"

Dick walked down into the bat-cave (using his crutches)

"Can I go back to the cave?"

"Why?" Batman continued to look through files

"Artemis wants to tell me something"

"Fine, where's Wally?"

Dick laughed quietly before answering "Can't find him on this page"

"Robin!"

"He went back home about an hour ago, using the zeta-beam located 3 metres away from where your sitting"

Batman turned to shoot him a Bat-glare which barely affected Dick when he first saw it, now it had no effect what-so-ever

"What are you working on anyway?"

"Aren't you supposed to be going now?"

"Right, OK Artemis i'm on my way" Dick turned the comm link off and went into the zeta-beam

"Robin B-01"

-
"Robin B-01"

When Robin walked through the zeta-beam he was met with Artemis

"My room"

Robin followed managing to keep up with Artemis (which was actually easy for him, since he had to use crutches so often). Artemis opened her door and led him inside. The first thing that he noticed was that Conner was also in the room standing against the light blue-green wall then his eyes drifted to the computer and his face paled as the events of that night played through his head

'At first everything was going well, dad just caught mum and when it was my turn to jump, I realized something was wrong and before I could do anything, they fell. It only lasted a few seconds but it felt longer to me, my mum called my name but I could hardly hear her and then they impacted with the ground. I heard the sound of their bones breaking and saw the blood pool around them'

Dick was pulled out of his thoughts when Artemis tapped him on the shoulder

"Hm?" He asked her

"You were sort of in a trance, are you okay?"

"Yeah totally asterous" He glanced at the photos again "What did you wanna tell me?"

"It's more of a question really"

"Then ask away"

"Are you Dick Grayson?"

"Uhh..um...Oh Bats is so gonna kill me for this, Yeah i'm Dick Grayson"

Artemis and Conner shared a confused/surprised look

"So how did you find out?" Dick asked half-heartedly

"I started searching things up about Dick Grayson because I felt bad about completly ignoring your existence and curiosity got the better of me"

Dick could sense that she was holding some information about that back but didn't want to question her in front of Conner in-case he didn't already know.

"And then I asked Superboy what you two were talking about before you decided to leave, he mentioned that your parents died when you were 8 and I put together all the information"

"Good detective work, Artie" Dick told her proudly "Does anyone else know?"

"Just us two" Artemis answered

"And Wally" Conner added

"How did you find out that Wally knew?" Dick asked him

"I just kinda assumed, since you two are best friends"

"Well, assuming is also good detective work"

Artemis laughed and Conner smiled

"So are you going to tell the rest of the team?" Conner asked

"They deserve to know but i'll have to ask Bats first" Dick walked to the zeta-tube

"Well that went well" Conner said

Artemis turned to the computer looking over the pictures "What do you think happened when he came into the room, he was in a trance for almost 2 minutes and he looked so sad"

"He was probably remembering what happened that night" Conner told her before walking out.
