Chapter 2: the new robin.

I absolutely love the fact that they casted Jensen Ackles as the adult voice of Jason Todd/red hood. Which makes me love batman under the red hood even more.

Sadly I don't own batman I hate the fact that they killed Robin hate the fact that they made him a villain when they brought him back even more.

Enough with me fangirling enjoy.

I slid into the middle seat of the batmobile and Bruce placed Jason's body in the passenger side it was only then that I saw the extent of his injuries. Not only were there injuries from the crowbar but there were also stab wounds probably from him fighting our original attackers. His body had been mostly untouched by the fire. Jason's body slumped against mine and I shuddered feeling how cold he was.

As we were driving Bruce asked me "what the hell were you two doing walking around Gotham alone?" I said "we were coming back from Pizza John's and we were ambushed. It's not like we could take the batmobile." Batman looked at me and I just hung my head I was destroyed the love of my life was sitting slumped against me dead. As we neared the bat cave I got used to the cold body next to me so much so that when Alfred took Jason out of the car I growled I was beyond consoling at that point.

Alfred took him to a secret room in the lair and before I could follow him he shut the door. I was mad I never had gotten to say goodbye. I pounded on the door screaming obscenities at Alfred. Bruce picked me up and carried me upstairs and laid me on my bed where I completely broke down. I must've drifted off to sleep because I woke up and saw food on my in table. Bruce must've brought it up for me and I smiled weakly. I reached for my cell phone and flipped through the pictures smiling sadly as I saw picture after picture of me and Jason.

Someone knocked at my door and I jumped I wasn't expecting anyone to come up here while I was so angry. I yelled "come in." and Bruce walked in wearing his plain clothes and sat on the bed next to me and said "what would you think about becoming the new robin?" I was shocked I hadn't been expecting that question especially coming so soon after Jason's death but I decided that it would be for the best. I said "okay I will." Bruce said "I'm adding a hood to your costume to help keep your identity a secret. I just nodded not really believing what was happening.

A couple of hours later Alfred brought in the new robin suit and told me to put it on and meet Bruce in the bat cave. As I put the suit on and looked at myself in the mirror I started crying knowing that Jason was gone. I walked down to the bat cave and met Bruce by the monitor. Bruce looked at me and smiled I shuddered thinking "how could he be smiling after he just lost his number one sidekick." but I smiled back and he said "sorry for smiling but you remind me of him when he first became robin." That made me smile once again I asked "can I see him?" Bruce said "he's in a cryostasis chamber which will hopefully bring him back to life in the future, but you can see him."

Bruce led me to the room and as soon as I saw the chamber I collapsed I couldn't believe that the person in front of me was my Jason my world. I let out a choked sob and buried my face in Bruce's chest. I asked "Bruce can I go see my family?" and Bruce said "sure I'll drive you." I ran upstairs to change and got into Bruce's limo.

I secretly packed my robin suit into my tote bag in case Bruce needed me and as we were driving I kept thinking about what I'd say to my mother when she asked where Jason was I settled on telling her he was in Africa doing charity work. When we got to my mother's house I literally ran to the front door and knocked and when my mom opened the door I practically threw my arms around her. It had been months since I had seen her. She asked me what I already knew she'd ask "where's Jason?" I said "he's in Africa doing charity work." Thank God she seemed to believe me and left it at that.

I followed her into the living room and I told her that I was tired and she said "okay go ahead I assume you still remember where your room is." I nodded and took off towards my room and when I opened the door it was exactly the way I had left it a year ago. I threw myself onto the bed and curled up underneath my blanket and fell asleep.
