Chapter 5

Batman narrowed his eyes at the 8 year old but not in a way that he was dealing with his villains. This was a child that somehow had figured out who he was under the mask. He had to have a talk with Mehira about keeping who he was under the mask a secret but then again Mehira was the daughter of two Avengers was used to being told to keep identities secret.

"How did you figure who Batman was?" Flash asked cautiously.

"It was just a matter of deductions as Batman sounds a little like Bruce Wayne. Plus Batman and Bruce Wayne have never met before and I just figured that with all the cool gadgets Batman has that he would have to be rich in order to make them." Mehira told Flash whose eyes went wide behind his mask.

"Don't worry, I have no reasons to tell anyone that I know who Batman really is. I mean I am the daughter of 2 Avengers who are used to people trying to find out who they are. I just wanted to know why Batman did what he did." Mehira told Flash with a smile on her face.

Batman smiled to himself. The young speedster was just curious as was most children her age about many things. She had no intentions of letting the world know that Bruce Wayne is Batman.

With ease of many years of training, Batman walked up behind the 8 year old speedster and tapped her on the shoulder. The Dark Knight smiled in his mind at the small squeak the little girl let out as she turned around.

"Come with me Lighting Bug. We need to talk about what you know." Batman told the red haired girl as he motioned for her to follow him which the little girl did.

Batman lead Mehira to just out of hearing range of Flash and Robin. "You do know that you can't tell anyone about what you know about me."

"Wasn't planning on it. I just want to know why a man with so much money would want to do what you do." Mehira said as she looked up at Batman with her green eyes full of wonder.

Batman looked down at the child and felt the need to let her know why he did what he did. "When I was your age, my parents were killed by a gunman in front of me. As I got older I made a vow that no child would ever have to face the fact of losing their parents. So I became Batman through years of training." Batman told the short story about how he became Batman to an 8 year old.

"Kinda like my mom wanting a new life other than one filled with money. Mom was tired of everything being all about money and she wanted to do something with her life. Grandpa almost disowned her when he found out that she was going to marry my daddy as grandpa had someone picked out for mommy already but mom refused to marry that guy. He did disown mom for a little while but when Grandpa got sick or so I overheard, he decided that Daddy was better than that man that he picked out as Daddy found a treatment for the illness for what my grandpa had. It seemed that Grandpa had finally accepted my dad and the last few years he was alive the four of us were close." Mehira told Batman.

Batman was shocked at how well the 8 year old was talking. But then again this was an 8 year old that was able to by accident get doused in the same chemicals that gave Flash his powers. Batman knew that he shouldn't underestimate this young girl but she wasn't a threat. She was just a child that was trying to learn how to be a normal kid which was hard when your family were The Avengers. Mehira also seemed to be the one to break his ward out of his shell. She knew who he was the first time she had met him but didn't make a scene instead she became his friend. Also considering that Mehira knew who he was under the cowl than she'd have to know that Robin was Dick Grayson. But for some reason Batman knew he could trust Mehira with his and Robin's secret identities. She wasn't one to reveal anything about anyone who was a hero or protected people. She was the daughter of two Avengers after all.

"Lighting Bug, do I have your word that you will not reveal anything about what you know about Robin and myself?" Batman told the young speedster. Something told the Dark Knight that the young child in front of him would keep his secret.

"Batman, I promise on my grandfather's grave that I will not reveal anything about you and Robin." Mehira told The Dark Knight.

Batman looked down at the young girl. He was starting to like Mehira. Most kids her age would be bragging about knowing the identity of a main hero of The Justice League but Mehira wasn't going to do that. She was mature for her age which was something that Batman was impressed by.

"Come on, let's get back to training." Batman told the young speedster as he guided the 8 year old back to where Flash was waiting for his new trainee. Batman could tell that Flash was fond of the Mehira. The Caped Crusader hoped that Flash wouldn't get to attached to Mehira as Batman knew that Flash and his wife were not able to have children do to Flash's speed powers.

Batman handed Mehira back to Flash while he trained Robin. For some reason Batman had a deep feeling in his gut that the friendship between Robin and Mehira would lead to many headaches but Batman knew that Robin needed a friend both as Robin and Dick Grayson.

Next chapter: Mehira meets Roy Harper by accident and the two become fast friends. Mehira also become Flash's official sidekick much to Hank and Janet's dismay.
