Chapter 4

Back at Wayne Manor, Piper, Bruce, and Dick stood in the study. Bruce walked up to the old grandfather clock, reached behind, and pushed a button. The clock rose and revealed an elevator.

"Come on, you need to see something."

Piper looked at Dick. She walked over and helped him walk into the elevator. They went in, the door closing behind them. The elevator then took a long plunge downward. When the door opened again, Piper found herself staring into the Batcave.

High tech computers lined the walls. Piper walked out to the edge of the ramp and down below sat the Batmobile. She heard squeaks above her and she looked up to see bats waking from their sleep. She turned back to Bruce.

"You…you're Batman."

Bruce nodded. Piper then looked at Dick.

"And that means, you're Robin. You're the Dynamic Duo."

"I wanted to tell you last night Piper," Dick said. "When you said that you wished that Batman and Robin would one day save you from your dad and that you could join them. I wanted to tell you that had already happened."

"Piper, besides pickpocketing and throwing knives, what are your skills?" Bruce asked.

"I don't have any Bruce. Not yet at least."

"Good," Bruce smiled. "We'll start training after lunch then shall we?"

Piper smiled. "Me? Training with Batman and Robin?"

Dick took her arm and smiled. "You are part of the family now."
