Alright, so, here's the end...

I have something to say to a reviewer that is a guest, and I hope they find this story agian. I didn't know Damian's age, and while I was looking online, I found the age of 10, so that's why I set him at age 10. Also, you mentioned Flamebird's eyes: The reason they are brown is that in the movie Son of Batman (which this is an alternate ending of) Dick's eyes are brown...not blue. I had this checked as I asked a friend to look at a screencap of him from the movie, and she agreed that his eyes were brown.

With that said, on to the ending to the story.

Chapter Three

Within the inner mechanics of the rig that were not far from the cavern, Deathstroke was casually walking to get to an escape pod. All of a sudden a titanium rope came out of nowhere and tied his arms to his side. He turned to see Batman standing there, which he had hoped it would be Damian so he could finish him off.

"Ready to finally cross the line; your daughter is dead by now." Deathstroke remarked, smiling behind his mask.

"Not if my son has anything to do about it. You're going away for a long time." Batman said as he pulled Deathstroke toward him.

"I highly doubt that." Deathstroke stated as he pulled out a hidden knife and was able to cut the rope.

He then went after Batman and the two were caught up in a 'dance' that would be the deciding battle.

Outside The Rig

The Man-Bats had made it to the outside of the rig from the cavern, only after many of them perished when the support tube they had piled into to busted and started to flood the facility. They were met by a jet and it started firing something at the creatures. As the needles stuck into the Man-Bats, the liquid inside went into their bodies. They soon enough transformed back into humans and fell into the ocean.

The Lazarus Pit

Damian pulled Flamebird into the pit, and with the liquid helping her float, he got her to the middle of it. He then released his hold on her, and she floated a bit more then started to sink below the surface. Flamebird's blood was mixing with the liquid, but it wasn't long before her eyes opened and she came back to the surface of the pit, with the liquid raising up behind her and she was screaming out as if in pain. Damian moved through the liquid and got to Flamebird and caught her as she was about to fall back into the pit.

He pulled her to the edge and got her out. It wasn't long before her breathing stabilized and she moved so she was looking at him. He pulled her mask off and saw that her eyes were blank…but then they returned to normal and she passed out.

"I hope you'll be able to walk again." Damian said as he held his newly accepted sister close.

Batman and Deathstroke were still at a standstill in their fight, but Batman needed to end this and go check on his children. He saw an opportunity to stop Deathstroke's movements so he took it and back the mercenary/assassin up to the point where he was against a piece of machinery and Batman threw five batarangs and they caught parts of Deathstroke's uniform, trapping him against the machine.

"So, are you going to finish it?" Deathstroke questioned as Batman walked up to him.

"You really think I'd cross that line." Batman answered back.

"I'm surprised I'm not dead already…what with Talia dead, and your son watching it happen. Not to mention Flamebird; I hope Damian saw the light leave her eyes." Deathstroke stated; wanting to get Batman mad enough to actually kill.

Batman said nothing…just turned around and walked away.

"Get back here and finish this fight…coward." Deathstroke said and with that last word, Batman stopped walking.

Deathstroke was smiling under his mask, but was not expecting the speed that came next as Batman was back in front of him, and punched the assassin right in the face…knocking him out.

Damian cradled Flamebird's head in his lap as she started to come to. As she opened her eyes, she saw concern on her baby brother's face. "Where's Bruce?"

"He went after Deathstroke, I told him that the Pit could save you and he trusted it, so he left me to care for you." Damian said as Flamebird started to sit up on her own.

"I remember waking up and feeling a little strange, but then blackness." Flamebird remarked.

"It's the effect of the Pit." Damian said.

"Thank you for helping me, Damian." Flamebird stated.

"It is what family does for each other." Damian told her.

"According to Dick, you didn't take too well to him; what changed your attitude with me." Flamebird said as she stood up with Damian's help.

"It didn't matter to you what I did to Dick; you still came to protect me from Deathstroke. Not many people would do that after I sliced a family member of theirs up the way I did." Damian said; a small smirk on his face.

"That's true, Alfred told me that Dick was about to cuss you out. I'm actually surprised he was able to hogtie you, your skills are good." Flamebird said as she finally stabilized herself on her feet.

"Well, Mother and Grandfather did tell me that Father was very skilled, and it seems he passed his excellent training down to you and Dick." Damian said.

Just then, a rumbling was heard and rocks from the cavern's ceiling were falling into the Lazarus pit. All of a sudden water started pouring into the cavern and the two young heroes started to run. Flamebird felt the water coming too fast, so she grabbed Damian and held him close while she heated the air around them and they flew at a fast pace…making it to the heart of the rig.

They landed on a walkway as the water rushing behind them started into a waterfall into the new room. As Damian looked around, he saw Deathstroke pinned up against a huge pipe and Batman walking away from the assassin.

"Father." Damian said as he ran to stand in front of Batman.

"I'm glad to see you are both safe. Damian, thank you for helping Flamebird." Batman said as he looked from his son to his adopted daughter.

"I'm sure she would have done the same for me." Damian said as he looked from his father to Flamebird.

"We have to go, Batman; the cavern started filling with water. The whole place is going to come down around us." Flamebird told her father.

Just then, Damian caught sight of movement close to Batman and interfered with its advancement. Batman and Flamebird watched as Damian fought with a free Deathstroke, and Flamebird wanted to interfere to protect her brother, but Batman stopped her. A silent conversation happened between the two, and Flamebird relaxed a little bit.

Deathstroke and Damian fought hard, and Damian was even able to get one of the assassin's two swords and they were fighting hard in swordplay. As Damian was able to cut though Deathstroke's uniform, the assassin grabbed his arm and shoved his elbow into Damian's from underneath, breaking the arm and causing the boy to cry out in pain.

Flamebird was concerned, but Damian soon enough flung the sword into the air and caught it with his other hand, then went right back into fighting. Batman was watching, ready should his son need him. Damian was then backed up in his fight and landed against a pipe that had some Lazarus liquid in it. The young Robin saw an opportunity to defeat Deathstroke and so he threw a birdarang and it hit a pipe causing steam to blow in Deathstroke's face.

"Time for me to finish the Al Ghul family." Deathstroke said as he readied his sword and ran straight for Damian.

The 10 year old smiled as Deathstroke came close then jumped away and Deathstroke's sword impaled the pipe with the liquid in it. With the glass shattered, the liquid came pouring out and threw Deathstroke to the level below. He drug himself out of the waterfall of liquid and there was Damian standing before him with a sword right in his face.

"Well, finish me…" Deathstroke yelled, but Damian didn't move. "It's what you want…it's what I would do…it's what your grandfather would do…well DO IT."

"No, I'm my father's son too." Damian said. "I'm Robin."

With that he walked away and got to the above walkways to meet up with his family.

"We have to go; the water level is rising fast." Batman told his children.

"There's an escape pod this way." Damian said; remembering the layout of the rig and took off. Batman and Flamebird were right behind him.

They got to the pod, Damian took the controls and the pod launched upward. As the area flooded, Deathstroke was too defeated to move, so he started to sink into the water…never to be seen again.

Outside the Rig

Nightwing watched the water, and the Rig was starting to go. He was hoping that his father and sister were alright…as well as Damian. Sure the boy was bloodthirsty, but he was still Bruce's son, so Dick was worried about him as well.

Soon enough, an escape pod came popping out of the water and Nightwing veered to intercept it. A part of the rig was about to fall right on top of the escape pod but Nightwing got the Batjet there in time and launched magnetic wench cables and pulled the pod with him as he took off to a safe place.

Three Hours Later

Everyone was back at the cave and they had wound down from the recent events, but Damian had secluded himself from the rest of his family.

"Do you think he'll be alright?" Reiena asked.

"I don't know, Bruce is his only family now….guess he's becoming an official Robin." Dick stated.

"Bruce isn't his only family, we're his siblings now, and we have to be there for him." Reiena said.

"He'll never accept us…I mean he did remind me that I'm not Bruce's blood son." Dick said, remembering when he was getting his sword injuries patched up.

"He's already accepted me." Reiena told her brother.

"WHAT?" Dick questioned; excitement in his voice.

"It happened while we were at the Rig; it was right after Talia died. He wanted to kill Deathstroke; I had to talk to him about the line between revenge and vengeance. I didn't go into super details, but he also knows what happened to our parents." Reiena remarked.

"I see; he became the scared little boy that he should have been all along." Dick said softly.

"He did, but he helped me after Deathstroke shot me in the spine. I don't think I'd be STANDING here right now if he hadn't gotten me into the Lazarus Pit."

"So, is it as intense as the research suggests?"

"I don't remember much, but yea…from what I do remember it was intense."

It was then that Damian came walking up to the twins.

"So, Dick; I…I wish to apologize for what I said and did when we first met."

Dick was thrown off his guard…the grandson of Ra's Al Ghul was apologizing….this really was a big change for the boy. "You're a different person that you were when we met. So…the League of Assassins falls to you now…what are you going to do with it?"

"I've been thinking about that; I'm going to hand it over to one of Grandfather's most trusted assassins. I wish to stay here with my father and older siblings."

The twins smiled and it was then that Batman came up to the three of them.

"Bruce, I'm sorry I couldn't save Talia." Reiena said, turning to her father.

"She died trying to save our son from Deathstroke. I'm sure if the bullet had not been a hollow point, she COULD have been saved by the Pit." Bruce said as he pulled his cowl off.

"I'm curious, sister; how did you know it was a hollow point bullet?" Damian asked.

"I've trained in sounds, and a hollow point bullet has a slightly different sound than a regular one. The second piece of data was that it didn't exit her body, if it had, your leg would have been injured as well." Reiena told her new brother.

"Grandfather was right about Father's skills, and I'm glad he passed them on." Damian said.

"Bruce didn't earn the title of 'World's Greatest Detective' without doing his homework." Dick remarked, a grin on his face.

"Let's get some rest; it's been a long week." Bruce said, and with that the three siblings went up to the manor, as it was now Damian's home and the twins could use their old rooms for the night before they returned to their own apartments.
