Thank you so much. Also thank you everyone for the ideas and Damian's persona which I think I got down in this chapter. I hope.
Chapter 3
take place during the last chapter
Wally was doing her best to try not to yawn. She was board out of her skull but she was not going to disgrace herself. Ra's had the maids come in and dress her in some frilly formal dress which she hated as Wally was a tomboy through and through. The last time she was in a dress was when she was four and that was at her uncle and aunt's wedding.
"So Ra's, where are we going?" Wally asked as she tried to walk in the slight heels she was wearing. She was not going to call him grandpa.
"We are having dinner with my daughter and grandson. I know that you have manners so please use them. Also I must warn you about my grandson Damian. He can be quite arrogant when it comes to things. So please bear with him." Ra's told his granddaughter who gave him a look.
When they arrived at the dinning room two servants opened the door to reveal a very luxurious small dining room where two figures were waiting. The figures were both dress very nicely. One was as woman with long black hair and deep dark eyes while the other figure was male and way younger around 7 or 8 years old with a smug look on his face that reminded Wally of someone she knew.
"I take it Father that this is MariBella's daughter?" The woman asked with a smile.
"Yes she is Talia." Ra's replied.
"She looks just like her mother although there is some of her father in the face." The woman know as Talia said with a smile again.
"Mother, I find this hard to believe that this person is indeed Aunt MariBella's daughter." The boy replied with a smugness in his voice but it wasn't rude. It was more like stating a fact.
Wally glared at the kid. No one insulted her or her mother. So Wally marched straight up to the boy and glared at him.
"Listen kid. I don't care who you are but you don't disrespect my mother with that tone of voice." Wally growled out still staring at the kid.
The kid looked up at his so called cousin with a smile. She was indeed a member of his family as they were known for defending their family's honor.
"I like you. You are not afraid to stand up for what you believe in and defend your family's honor. You are indeed my cousin. My name is Damian." The boy now known as Damian said as he offered his hand out to Wally to shake.
Wally took the hand and shook it. For some reason she was starting to like the little demon and looked at him one last time. He was still familiar but Wally just couldn't place it.
"Damian, that is not the way we treat our guests." Ra's scolded his grandson. "Now shall we dine?"
Wally could hear her stomach growl slightly as it had been several hours since she had last eaten.
Ra's clapped his hands together just as everyone sat down in the elegant chairs. As soon as everyone sat down the food was on the table.
It took every ounce of will power for Wally not to dig into the food like she normally did as she was sitting down with her mother's side of the family which was weird if you thought about it. Wally was part villain if you thought about it.
"So Boudicca, how had life as a hero been treating you?" Talia asked as she ate a piece of her meat.
Wally looked at her aunt with a calculating look. She knew that she would have to be careful as to not reveal anything about the team.
"I am enjoying it very much." Wally replied.
"That's good. Tell me did your mother ever teach you anything about who she was before she had you?" Talia asked again.
"Not really. She did teach me a few martial arts moves but that was about it." Wally replied once again to his aunt's question.
"That is just like MariBella. She wanted nothing to do with the Shadows when she found out that she was pregnant with you. She honestly thought that by not telling you about who she was than no one would find you." Talia pointed out.
"HEY! My mom is great at what she does. Just because she not part of the Shadows anymore doesn't mean she still can't take on the best of any of you." Wally yelled out. It seemed that Talia was trying to get her goat so to speak.
Talia looked at her niece with a smile. Mary had done a good job a raising her daughter. Mary raised a daughter that was not afraid to stand up for what she believe in. Even if said daughter was a hero.
"Your mother did a good job raising you. You are proud of who you are and will defend your family if needed." Talia pointed out again.
"Most of the time I am. At school it's whole another story. Being a genius does have it problems. Most of time I'm bullies and because Boudicca West is not a hero or anything like that I have just grin and bare it. The only time guys pay attention to me is if they need some homework done or they are just trying to get into my pants." Wally replied. "My fellow heroes can be the same way at times. They think of me as a idiot and jokester but they don't even know I female at all."
Damian's eyes narrowed. "How dare those neanderthals treat my family in such a way. If I am ever in the town where you live I must make sure to teach those boys a lesson about who to properly treat a lady." Damian growled out. He did not like what his cousin was saying was happening to her. "As for your teammates they should be ashamed of themselves for how they treat you."
Wally couldn't help the grin come to her face at the mental image of her bullies being taken out by an 8 year old. An 8 year old that had probably been trained to kill since birth.
Wally looked over to her young cousin as he narrowed his eyes. It was then that she realized just who Damian reminded her of. Batman was known for having a relationship with Talia Al Ghul and her father knew that Batman was Bruce Wayne. So that meant that Damian was Batman's Son. That meant that Wally was related to the Bat Family.
"Oh my goodness!"
"I take it that you have figured out just who my son's father is considering you are one of the few people to know Batman's secret identity." Talia smirked at the sight of her niece looking very startled.
Wally was very shocked that Batman had a son other than Robin who was Batman's son in every way but blood.
"I think that we have had enough bonding as I did kidnapped Mehira which before you ask young one is the name that I gave you when you were born. Ironically it means speed in Hebrew." Ra's told his granddaughter. "I will return you to Central City as I am sure Flash had the entire League looking for you right now as I have seen how protective that man is of you."
Wally rolled her eyes at the antics of her mother hen uncle but knew it was out of love that he did what he did.
"Thank you Ra's for the dinner. I will be talking to my mother about her keeping secrets from me like this one." Wally replied as she got up from her seat and followed the man that was her grandfather.
"Mehira, wait on moment." Damian called out.
Wally turned around to see her cousin walking up to her. Damian handed Wally a small pendant like communicator. "If you are ever in need of anything please do not be afraid to call us. You may be a hero but you are family and family must always stay together." Damian told Wally before he walked back to his mother.
"Also if you should ever encounter any of the Shadows that do not know who you are, all you have to do is show them the necklace like communicator and they will know just who you are. Those that work for me are not allowed to harm my family no matter what. Even though you are a hero you are still family and will always be family." Ra's told Wally as they boarded the plane that would take them to a city that had a Zeta tube in it.
During the plane ride home Wally thought about the fact that she was somewhat related to the Bat Family which was weird concerning the fact that Batman was just a protective of her as Flash was. Also for some strange reason she like Damian even though the kid was a Shadow and slightly cocky.
"Mehira, we have arrived at our destination. I do wish you the best of luck in lying to Batman about what really happened and if you must tell him go right ahead." Ra's said as he placed a hand on Wally's shoulder.
"Thanks for everything Ra's." Wally replied as she walked down off of the airplane.
Once she was out of sight Wally headed straight for the Zeta Tube located in the city she was in. she was going to have a tough time trying to fool The Batman into thinking that all Ra's wanted was a conversation with someone of a higher intellect.
Next chapter Wally talks to Batman about what happened at Ra's place and Batman finds out that Wally is Ra's granddaughter.
Ideas are welcome anytime.
Review would be great as well.
Author's note. Just to clear something up about Wally's names as I know some of you are going to be confused.
Wally West: known by young justice and male.
Boudicca West: known at school and family.
Mehira: known in the shadow and family name.
Hope that clears that up.
