The Terrible Trio, Roy, Wally, and Dick, didn't have much in common.
Well, Roy and Wally both had flaming red haired. Roy and Dick had blue eyes. Roy and Wally could both drive. Well, Wally somewhat drove. And of course, they all were superheros fighting against crime. But if there was one thing they all painfully had in common; it was that they all were adopted.
Dick :
April.. april, out of all the days. The day in which they died, was the most sunny and bright.
Oh, why couldn't it be a cold December night?
Dick's tears had ran dry from crying all night long. They just literally ran out. Now, there he was, standing beside that tall social service lady.
"Can't I- can't I just stay with Haley's?" He asked timidly.
The social service's lady gave him a sympathetic look, but then tried to sound stern and determined.
"I'm afraid not. It's just not... safe." She told him.
"Oh." Dick couldn't help but feel that if Haley's circus wouldn't be safe for him, then nowhere would.
The tall social service's lady was talking with another man... Someone with a badge that said 'Josh Branner- Vice assistant'
Suddenly, another man comes running in. He looks oddly familiar, with tan skin, black hair, and blue gleaming eyes.. Dick immediately recognized him. Bruce. Bruce Wayne. He was the one who had payed for the funeral.
Bruce Wayne was talking to Josh and the tall lady, they seemed to be arguing about something... Dick didn't want to know.
The argument is finally closed and Bruce Wayne started walking up to Dick.
"Let's go, Dick." He say, softly.
"Wh-where to?"
Bruce smiles brightly. "Home."

Wally :
They'd told me that a parents' love is the strongest thing alive,
But how is it so, when mom and dad, care least about my life?
Where'd he go to? Wally wasn't sure. But all he wanted to do was stay away from his parents. If his father could enjoy abusing him, and if his mother could watch him do that, what sort of thing makes him welcome in that house?
He could go to Aunt Lisa, but she was always scared of his father. If he'd ask her where he'd been, she'd definitely tell him. And if Rudolph gets Wally back, it was going to go from worse, to worst. No. He had to go somewhere else. Somewhere he can permanently stay away from his crooked family, somewhere they'd never find him.
He could go to Uncle John? But Uncle John was far away, in San Francisco, and was always away on business. Besides, he never even really like Wally.
There was only one place where Wally could go to, now. He hadn't wanted to go there for fear of their questions, because he wasn't sure enough to answer. But if answering would get him away from his parents, then answer he shall.
Wally ran up to the door, and climbed the door step. Hesitantly, he knocked. Very, very slowly. The door creaked open, and a tall, beautiful lady with red shining hair and green gleaming eyes was standing beside a tall, blonde blue-eyed man.
Aunt Iris and Uncle Barry.
They both let out shocked gasps at Wally's appearance. Just what he'd expected.
"Wally..." Barry started to say. "Who... who did this to you?"
Wally's eyes started getting wet with tears. "My-my dad, Uncle Barry!" He admitted.
Iris quickly took him into her arms.
"Oh, Wally, why didn't you tell us?" She'd asked.
"I-I didn't want to go back. Please.. please don't send me back!" He had pleaded.
"You're not going to go back." Barry saif firmly.
"Iris, get the car ready, we've got a case to press."
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-..-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-..-.-.-.-.-.-.-..-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
Roy :
They'd said I'd never find a way,
Is that why I'm present here today?
Roy didn't like the orphanage, but that was the only place that would take him in. Well, partly, anyways.
Nobody liked him there either, but it was a lot better than having to wander the streets. Again, all the kids at the orphanage made fun of him, because he was the only one that had actually never met his parents. He hadn't necessarily felt annoyed, but jealous. Although he'd probably never admit it, he'd always wanted someone to love him. Someone to actually care for him.
Then this tall, blonde man, with icy blue eyes came into the orphanage wanting to adopt someone. All the other kids were excited about his coming, Roy didn't know why.
He had bright smile, and his suit looked rather expensive, too, but Roy hadn't really considered anything special about that until the man had called him.
For some reason, the man had called him into Mrs. Kelly, the office in-charge's office. He had them both sit down of chairs, which made Roy a little nervous. Was he in some sort of trouble?
"Hello." The blonde man had said. "Do you know why you're here, Roy Harper?"
Huh? How had he known Roy's name?
"Am I in... trouble?" He'd asked nervously.
"Not quite, young Roy." Mrs. Kelly had said.
Then why was he here?
"I am Oliver Queen." The man announced.
Wait a second... Oliver Queen? Wasn't he that man they'd always seen on T.V?
"Oh... kay...?" He said. He had tried to sound confident, but he was truly scared.
Oliver smiled an impressed smile. "I've got plenty of space in my man- my house. It's a bit too big, you see. Would you like to cover up for a place?" He asked softly.
Roy stared up at him. Lost of words, he nodded without hesitation.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
Regardless to say, all of our favorite, young, heroes have had a painful experience of losing a parent, or having one, in Wally's case. But at the same time, they all had the wonderful experience of others helping them get over it. And if there was one thing they knew, it was that they were all adopted, and all given help, in a way or another.
