Hey, sorry for taking so long! School is crazy! I can't wait till we have out fall break. Maybe then I will get some good writing done. Unless we go camping... But there will only be two more chapters after this. Sorr:(

Enjoy and Review please!


Robin and Nightwing showed up exactly on time to where they were supposed to be. They were in a small waiting room with two, large wooden doors. Two footmen stood at attention at the doors. They were dressed in full formal attire.

Robin began tugging at his tie again.

"Stop that!" Nightwing said, coming over and straightening his tie.

The doormen opened the door.

...

"Hurry up!" Elizabeth yelled behind her. There was a sound of rustling skirts as Elizabeth and Amelia made their way down the brightly lit hall.

"You try walking twenty miles an hour in heeled sandals!"

"Oh stop winning!" Elizabeth called back.

They made their way into a small waiting room with two large wooden doors. Two footmen stood at attention, like in the other room, at the door. Amelia and Elizabeth positioned themselves in front of the doors.

The doors swung open.

...

Both doors opened at the same time to reveal marble flooring that sparkled under a large crystal chandelier on the ceiling. A grand stair case descended from the platform into the middle of the room. It was a typical ballroom-slash-hall. From the golden grand staircase with swirl patterns running under the railing, the room opened into a shinning marble floor. Columns were spaced evenly around the room, holding up the arched mural ceilings.

The ceilings were decorated with clouds and images of angels and trimmed with gold lining. The walls were made of windows beautifully edged with more gold. They looked out on the light dimming sky and the glorious gardens. The King sat proudly at the end of the room on a royal throne with four extra chairs. An orchestra played softly in the corner of the grand hall.

When the doors opened, Elizabeth and Amelia laid eyes on Nightwing and Robin. Elizabeth snickered when she say Nightwing fixing Robin's tie. Amelia smiled kindly. Amelia mouthed, walk forward, as she and her sister walked to the middle of the platform. Nightwing and Robin did the same.

Elizabeth motioned for Robin to stand on her left, while Amelia was on her right. Nightwing took his place on Amelia's right hand side. A herald hushed the crowd.

"Now presenting, her Royal Highness, Princess Elizabeth." the herald announced. Amelia smiled and pulled Robin with her down the stairs. "And her escort this glorious night, Master Robin."

"Smile!" Elizabeth whispered to Robin. Robin let a smile creep across his face and he more confidently lead Elizabeth down the stairs. They kept walking in between the crowds of bowing people on either side of them. They walked all the way up to the king.

Elizabeth curtsied and Robin followed suit with a bow. The king nodded and they moved to their seats.

"Now presenting, her Royal Highness, crowned princess Amelia." a hush fell over the crowd. The orchestra stopped playing. Everyone's eyes were on the stunning couple, Amelia and Nightwing.

Nightwing held out his arm for Amelia to take. She took it with a smile and they descended down the staircase. Every eye in the room was focused on the two of them. Amelia's dress sparkled and Nightwing's suit was a black as night.

Their shoes clicked softly against the shinning marble floor as they walked through the crowd of people. When they reached her father, Nightwing bowed and Amelia curtsied. The king acknowledged them and they took their seats.

The King stood up.

"Family, friends. Honored guests." The King looked to Nightwing and Robin and smiled. "Welcome to the event of wondrous joy and thanks." the crowd clapped. "Almost a week ago, both my daughters went missing." the hall went eerily silent. "I was worried sick. But thankfully these two fine gentlemen from the Justice League found my daughters, and have brought them home to me." The King wiped away a stray tear. Amelia took her father's hand and smiled. "But enough of the sad times! Let the celebration begin!" he said. The crowd clapped and the orchestra began to play again and people moved to the dance floor.

"Father, that was a wonderful speech." Elizabeth said kindly.

"Thank you my daughters. Thank you." he said. "Now! Go! Dance! Enjoy yourselves!" The King pulled his daughters to their feet. Nightwing and Robin followed. They preceded to the dance floor.

A new song started. Instead of it being traditional waltz like music, it was a slow rock love song.

If the heart is always searching, can you ever find a home...

All the younger couples came onto the dance floor. Nightwing took Amelia's hand and held her close as they began to sway.

How long will I be waiting, to be with you again...

You're the light that makes my darkness disappear. When you look me in the eyes...

They were in constant eye to mask contact. Amelia was seeing through the mask to the handsome blue eyes below them. Nightwing stared into Amelia beautiful blues.

Elizabeth looked over to her sister and Nightwing. She felt a pang of nervousness and wanting. She wanted more than everything for someone to hold her and look at her like that. Robin pulled her attention back to her and the dance. He smiled and Elizabeth knew, she didn't need that. She had Robin.

The band played a more upbeat song. The pairs split up and everyone began to have a good time. Amelia looked over to the parliament and her father. They looked mortified. Amelia dragged Nightwing through the crowd to Elizabeth and Robin.

"Did you do this?" Amelia spoke loudly.

"I had a little help!" Elizabeth yelled back. Robin smiled slightly under Nightwing's disapproving gaze.

"Thanks!" Amelia said back with a joyous smile. Nightwing had a shocked look. "Even I should have a chance to let my hair down!" she said. Nightwing shrugged and danced with Amelia.

After a couple of songs, the King came by and asked Robin and Nightwing to follow him. They followed the King to a study not far from the dance hall.

"Please, sit." the King said. Nightwing and Robin sat down in matching arm chairs in front of the fire in the King's small study. "Once again, I must thank you for bringing my daughter's home safely."

"Really sir, it was nothing. Just another rescue mission that needed our assistance." Robin said.

"Oh, I think it was more than that." The King winked. Robin blushed.

"I don't believe I have officially met you young.."

"Robin."

"I was the one who found Amelia the first time you needed our help. Robin here, saved Elizabeth from freezing to death." Nightwing added in.

"Well, I don't really want to know what happened." the King said waving away and explanation. "Now, to serious matters of business." He leaned back and rested his arms on the arms of the chair. "Your reward."

"Oh, sir.." Robin said.

"We really don't need any type of reward. Knowing that our mission was a success is all we need." Nightwing finished.

"Are you positive?" they both nodded. "Well then.. Robin, my young leader," Robin blushed. "Best not to keep my little Elizabeth waiting any longer. You may go back now, but I would like to have a word with Nightwing." Robin bowed and left.

"Nightwing, I have cannot have you leave without a reward. This is the second time you have saved my daughter from a horrible fate." Nightwing began to speak up, but the king waved it away. "If my daughter was not already betrothed, I would offer you her hand. But she is already spoken for. But, if you wish, I would gladly offer you Elizabeth."

"Sir. I couldn't."

"Alright." the King said. "You may go back to the hall." Nightwing bowed and left the King to brood on his decisions.
