AN: Okay so I am not happy with how this chapter turned out. As hard as it was to connect with Tim Drake, it was even harder for me to connect with Stephanie Brown. Either way pleases review. No really. Review. PLEASE AT THIS POINT I WELCOME ALL FLAMERS TO DO THEIR THING. I'M PRACTICALLY BEGGING HERE PEOPLE, YOU JUST CAN'T SEE ME DUE TO THAT TECHNOLOGICAL BARRIER CALLED YOUR COMPUTER. Well, now that I'm done with my little wallowing in self pity session, let me get on with this authors note. This chapter is formatted differently than the previous chapters. Instead of being a straight up dialogue, it's simply a first person POV.
Disclaimer: I don't own Batman...maybe someday...but not today :(
Steph's POV
Steph's Situation
Oh god.
I don't think I can do this.
I mean, I know I can do this but it feels weird like this.
This isn't the first time I've patrolled Gotham with a mask on.
**Pause**
Mask, hood same difference.
Well anyway this mask is different.
It carries more weight than Spoilers.
The mask has history.
**Looks from reflection to glass case containing a certain Robin suit**
This mask belonged to a boy who lost his life fighting a war against crime.
Well, at least it belonged to him in spirit that is.
Yeah this mask has a lot of history.
"Robin, are you ready yet?", Bruce calls.
Robin, wow I'm Robin.
I used to call him that.
Now I'm Robin.
"Yes Bruce, I'm ready." I respond.
**Double checks utility belt**
That's right utility belt.
I have Batarangs, BATARANGS!
Or would they be considered Birdarangs…
Either way it doesn't matter because this is happening!
**Steps out of changing room **
**Runs into Kevlar Bat symbol**
**Steadies herself from the impact**
**Looks up into the cowl**
I can tell he's not happy.
**His eyes narrow**
Nope.
Not happy.
"No names." he grounds out.
"What?"
Where did that come from?
What's he talking about-
"Oh! That..sorry Bru-Batman."
"Hn."
Tonight's going to be a long night.
AN: Again, PLEASE REVIEW!(I'm kind of desperate for them) If you have an idea for an edit or for an upcoming story(Damion or Caroline "Carrie" Kelly)
PS: Oh yeah and follow me on Tumblr if your already on, I'm **dramatic pause** theaveragecomicbookgeek(no space, no caps) for more story updates and a peek into the unbelievable nutty-ness off my life and friends.
