"With Gotham City slowly rebuilding to it's original state of peace and order, Batman has had trouble making sure to keep it that way. Especially how he was working with the Justice League, the group has been on high alerts if anything else might happen due to the unexpected capture of them in Queen of Fables book. The dark knight had to also leave his city due to that while they were away, most of the world's most dangerous villains have taken the chance and made their own type of chaos. Leaving him to have someone look over the city, to which it was his young ward. As well son 'Robin', while the sidekick has been a bit immature the past months due to the live host show as well almost eaten alive by King Shark. Damian had been training to become just as strong as his father, along trying to work with the other people left to defend the city while he was with the league. In which it was a teenager girl who tried to be like him, and a large oversized turtle with the mind of a brute."
Batcave-Training room
Within the darken cavern of the bat cave as well in the training room was Robin, who apparently had surrounded himself with a couple of training bots that Wayne tech was able to loan since his father owns the company. The child sidekick gripped his knuckles along getting into fighting stance as well looking at the machines ready.
"Time to prepare for a satisfying beatdown."
Robin called out along of him informing the machines to charge directly towards him, each of them rushing at Robin in a fast motion. The boy moved left to right using his acrobatic skills to avoid them, he fought them as well blocked their attacks. As the robots continued their attacks on Robin, the young ward saw how they weren't moving that fast.
"Computer, increase difficulty mode. Password: Nightwing."
He told the computer as he desired to get better as well have a proper fight, the bots eyes soon changed to that of red. In which their stances changed to that of Nightwing's stance, along sending out a pair of staffs. Robin smirked as he quickly charged at them, avoiding their swings as well their faster movement. However with how faster they went, Robin could see that in a instant he could handle it. That was until a robot got the upper hand and grabbed him by the hood.
"Crap!"
Swearing as the training bot sent him to the ground along trying to whack him, the sidekick quickly leapt up as well did several backflips away from it. Chuckling at how the robots seemed like a challenge, he decided to play to their level.
"Now that's more like it."
In which he pulls out that of his very own sword, a special one that his grandfather. The hand of the demon, Ra's Al Ghul, leader of the league of shadows gave to him when he accomplished several harsh challenges. Spinning it around towards the robots, getting into his sword technique stance. He rushed towards them as well attacking the training bots, their staffs were design withstand heavy as well sharpen objects.
Continuing his assault on the robots, Robin was able to slice several of their heads. However doesn't notice one of the machines still functioning, tripping him to the ground. Robin looked up seeing his foot about to drop right into his face, however they soon stop as Robin noticed that someone deactivated them.
"Master Damian, while your training may be that of important. There is the matter of certain things that you must attend, that is of your health and homework?"
Spoke none other than Alfred, butler to Bruce Wayne as well possibly the only man to handle himself in a fight with any type of criminal who threatens his home. Robin, sighs as well gets up to put his sword away. Heading up to the bat computer along seeing Alfred with several of his school books, he groans at how they weren't important.
"Alfred, if you haven't notice Batman is gone. As well with the League, leaving me to defend Gotham from any remaining forces that still might want to take it. Especially Harley Quinn and her mutant gang."
Reminding himself as well Alfred about how he got humiliated on the show, as well booed at by half of the people of Gotham. Alfred, could see a lot of arrogance in the boy like Bruce as well the devotion to continue the vote.
"That may be young man, but your father would also want to have a normal life as well possibly try to enjoy the peace that he was able to get. I know I have, my macaroni days were a bit to dangerous."
Informing Robin about that while he did enjoy wearing a costume and aiding Batman, it wasn't his style nor desire to fight wearing loins and a wig.
"That's because no one wants to wear a puffy shirt with a powdered face and skinny mustache."
He spoke talking rather ill of Alfred's costume, however the elderly butler didn't respond but could see that Robin wanted to help out.
"As well that the city has already gotten some help, from that of Batgirl and her. Turtle companion, they are like you and..."
Just as he was explaining that he wouldn't need to worry about it, Robin looked both shocked and angered by this seeing how a newcomer and possibly another mutant was out there. In Gotham doing his father's work, which should be his work.
"Are you kidding me?! Batgirl? I trained since I was born to be one of the greatest assassin as well lived through a life of strict discipline, to get sidekick again by some drama filled teenager and a pet?!"
Robin sounding a bit upset along letting out some anger which Alfred could tell the young man wasn't happy. The butler, knew what he could do as well walked over to the bat computer and locked out the vehicles that Damian could drive.
"I believe that you would desire to meet these 'rookies'. But your father gave me explicit advice on making sure your safe, as well properly getting educated and training. Which is why I'd be happy to help you, as well ya reading some old fashion war stories from my old days and drinking honey tea."
Alfred explaining while finishing locking up every bat vehicle to the bat mobile to the bat cycle. Especially that of Robin's own custom vehicles, as he turned to give him some comfort along going to bond with him over several activities. The old man saw Robin gone in a instant, along a small note by the side of the books. Walking over Alfred picked it up to read it.
"I'm not going let these false idols disgrace the mantle of the bat. I promise not to cause to much trouble, and when I come back I'd like some warm milk. Sincerely, Damian Wayne."
It said on the letter leaving Alfred to sigh as well was glad that he left a letter, to which he seats down and drinks some of the honey tea that he made.
"Why couldn't master Wayne do it with a normal girl then these unusual women?"
Asking himself how Bruce, a playboy billionaire is somehow attracted to the powerful as well deadly women rather then the ordinary women of the world. Feeling a bit worried, he walked over to the screen to see where he could be heading off to. As well where Batgirl was, cause if he can't reach out to Robin. Then maybe Batgirl can, since she has a better understanding as well could relate to him due to their young personality and brash attitude.
Gotham City-Rooftops
Rushing across the now stable rooftops as well of doing some simple standard movement training, the two that were practicing on their reflexes was Barbra Gordon. Now a full time hero in training Batgirl, as well that of her large mutant turtle partner Slash. The pair have gone under some training of Batman via communication as well video screen.
"Ok, so Batman said that there some former penguin goons trying to get his umbrella weapons. The new as well dangerous ones, we go in. Destroy the weapons and take down the men. Got it Slash?"
Asking her large turtle companion as Barbra turned to him as he was thinking about something, which was new since Slash wasn't that of a thinker. She also noticed that he grabbed his iron mace's handle tight in a angry like moment.
"Ninja lady, worked with blade man."
He spoke as Batgirl remembered the woman with her ally, Karai was her name. To which that she was the one that was possibly responsible for him being sent into the sewers beaten up as well to be a slave to the Riddler. Slash showed a angry like face as well might lose control, in which Barbra noticed from how he fights with her.
"Well one day will get her, but for now. Let's get that anger taken out with some goon beating."
Cheering him up as well making the turtle nod, as the two heard some glass crashing to the side of a nearby building. Rushing over to check it out, the two notice that of some men wearing penguin uniform as well cracking crates to show highly experimental weapons.
"Man look at these beauties, I bet they can crack a bank like getting into smooth pussy."
One of the men chuckling as he checked out a umbrella that was able to change into a grenade launcher. Half of the umbrellas seemed highly dangerous, along not being used for standard uses except for the big heists as well fighting the Batman. The goons continued to use the experimental umbrellas as both Batgirl and Slash used their stealth skills to infiltrate the building. Not being noticed, the men checked out that of a rocket launcher that was larger then Oswald's standard umbrella.
"You know the saying 'size doesn't matter'? I bet if he saw this cocksucker."
Smirking at the sight until one of them heard something near the wall, grabbing that of a smg machine gun. A man walked over feeling they weren't exactly alone, in which he soon fired upon whatever might be there not taking any chances. However he only shot up a wall as well the door, seeing nothing but the moon light enter into the building.
"Asshole! I told you to use silencers, we don't want the GCPD coming since Gordon isn't a sobbing drunk anymore."
The suppose leader called out seeing that Jim Gordon, while mostly known for losing it after the years of service he put into Gotham. Got his mind back as well now using all police power to making sure the city is back to being normal for its people. The grunt shrugs until he gets taken into the shadows not making a sound.
Soon enough it continued as there were eight men in total, quickly enough coming in and out of the shadows. The goons were being taken out left to right, and not even screaming. While their leader had gotten a set of dangerous umbrellas, he noticed his crew gone as well the inside being as silent as a prison.
"So I heard your back bats, well guess what? Fuck you! We saw how you got your ass whooped by Bane, your not so scary after that. Maybe I can do the same..."
Continuing to brattle on towards the supposed masked man, a batarang flew pass the man's automatic gun which made him groan in pain. He turned to see the caped person as he used a machine gun umbrella, he opens fires trying to get a shot. Though Batgirl moved to fast as well tossed a smoke bomb to cover her sighting, to which the leader didn't hesitate and tried to get another umbrella.
"You know it's not exactly good to pick up after your dead boss, cause in the end people like that fall."
Batgirl spoke out as he quickly turns to see Batgirl, coming from that of the boxes as well delivering a strong side kick to the man's face. Tumbling to the ground, the goon notices a rocket launcher umbrella as well arms it.
"Then consider yourself splatter across the damn wall!"
He shouts at her, as he proceeds to fire a middle at her. However, dropping from the ceiling was none other then Slash. Who used his razor sharped spoke to block the explosive attack, smoke covered the sightings as well Slash turning right to the frighten human in which the large mutant turtle growls at him.
"Boo."
Scaring the man as well forcing him to run out, both vigilantes rushes after him outside to notice something. He was being chased by something else, going right near a alleyway to escape Batgirl and Slash. The leader went to his phone to possibly call for back up, however a fast batarang came out of nowhere. As well a grappling hook that took him by the legs, hoisting him upwards like if he was nothing. He was now upside down looking at none other then Robin, who had his hood up and looking at him with his father's intimidation glare.
"Oh, it's Gotham's former sweet potato..."
Going to mock him with the cute name, Robin quickly drops him to the ground making him scream. While that happened, Batgirl and Slash noticed the scream as well saw him falling. In which he landed in Slash's arm, to which he growled towards the human making him pass out.
"Well that's all of them, but who did this?"
Asking as she looked up along of Slash seeing the boy wonder, standing on the edge of the building trying to look menacing like Batman. Only for Batgirl to be amazed at how adorable he was being, as well taking a photo of him on how he seemed both silent and brooding.
An hour later
Calling for the cops to arrive, the penguin goons were now being arrested by Jim Gordon as well the rest of GCPD. On top of the same building that Robin almost killed the man, he was looking at Batgirl and Slash who were starring at him as well that Barbra couldn't help but see how adorable he is.
"I don't know why you suggest of wearing the mantle of the bat, but that symbol means vengeance as well a force to be reckon with. Not to be used for fun."
Robin trying to sound serious as well be like his father, however Barbra walked over and hugs him at how he was acting this way. Robin, tried to squirm out to which he did as Batgirl laughed a bit to his tough personality.
"Sorry, sorry. I just can't help it, it's just your so cute. But still awesome in a fight."
Trying to not make him feel uncomfortable about his stature to which Robin remained silent, but smiled a bit that she was a fan of his. However it still didn't change the fact that they were watching over the city then him.
"Well then you should know that I can handle this myself, let alone make sure to get the job done."
He speaks to them like a teacher, which was possibly strange since he was possibly around twelve or thirteen years old. Batgirl, could tell that he seemed a bit disapproval to her and Slash of how they were helping out since they came into the hero business.
"Well sorry, but I couldn't let Gotham be ruled by gangsters and maniacs. I had to do something, as well make sure that it doesn't happen again."
She retorting back to him as both masked children looked at one another seeing their point of views, Damian in thinking they weren't worthy and Barbra's in trying to show everyone she can protect this city. While that was going on, Slash noticed something with the police man. Especially how while the arresting and confiscation of the weapons was done, one of the cops were taking that of several umbrella's into his car.
"Bad man taking weapons."
Slash told the two as both Robin and Batgirl rushed over to check it out, the cop with the umbrellas was driving away from his unit into the street going off on his own. Robin, knee that the city was still full of criminals. Especially men with greed in their hearts, to which he had to see for himself.
"If you want to be worthy of the mantle, let's see if you can catch up with me. And, possibly tell me about what's been happening."
The boy wonder doing his best to be serious since he was out of the loop on their own hero business, taking out a grappling hook he soon swings right after the cop car while for Batgirl and Slash. Remained quiet to see how he had a lot of attitude plus a bit of child like personality.
"Bird boy is, strange."
Slash spoke as Batgirl nodded as the two leapt off the rooftop to travel with Robin, as well investigate on this mysterious officer who was leaving with the umbrellas. Along how it was going to be a lot to explain for Robin, but with how he was under the cape of the Batman. Batgirl would surely understand about what she and Slash have been doing since they started aiding him.
Outside of the city limits
Continuing to purse the chase, the three heroes stopped by that of a medium size building to notice the cop car finally stopping at its destination. While they monitored the car, Batgirl informed the young wars about what's been going on as well her investigation. Which left Robin a bit upset, let alone not that much surprised.
"What?! The Foot. The shadow organization that has been around since feudal Japan, that Foot?"
Robin asked the two in which Batgirl nodded seeing how he must have learned about them, to which she was curious since most boys his age would be interested in Fortnite or talking on phones.
"So you know about them?"
Batgirl asked Robin in which he nodded, as well remembering the lessons from his grandfather and mother about other societies in the shadows. Just like the league of assassins, the Foot was a clan to not be trifled with.
"When I wasn't learning how to survive a mountain, my mother taught me about the many groups of trained killers and warriors. The Foot, was one of them. Their a clan of ninjas that have survived just as long as the League, along being lead by a mysterious man, who no one has ever seen and lived to tell the tale. The Shredder."
Robin speaking his name as it made Barbra a bit worried at how well detailed he knew about this 'Shredder' character. As well Slash, who growled at the mention of his name to which Robin turned seeing the giant turtle angry at the word.
"Foot bad, reason I was Riddle man's slave."
Slash spoke as well still upset, Batgirl held his hand calming him down as they saw the cop heading inside with the umbrellas. Sparing now time, the three went into the shadows to figure out what was happening as well to spy on them. Within the small building was the cop with the assortment of umbrellas, and right now waiting for something.
"Alright, I'm..."
Before the cop could call out, he saw a pair of yellow eyes appearing from the shadows. Walking out were several men in purple masks that had yellow pupils, along of black clothing. As well having a red foot symbol on their foreheads, they all were armed with swords as well remained silent.
"Ok, I got the umbrellas. Now where's my money?"
The greedy cop spoke out until he saw another figure coming out, having blonde hair and a purple dragon tattoo as well the Foot symbol. He was much bigger than the man as well looked at the umbrella's, to which he shows his right hand.
"Let's see the umbrellas you picked up first, then you'll get your cash. Pig."
Making a joke at him as the cop shows him several of the umbrella's, each of them were unique let alone could do damage. The muscular like man took a look at them, as well breaks that of a heavily armed umbrella, which had that of a volatile missile that could destroy a building.
He chuckles as he snaps his fingers, in which a ninja walks over with a bag of money for the cop. As this deal was going on, Robin along with Batgirl and Slash were spying on them from the rooftop. To which they saw how the weapons deal was happening, Slash growled at the blonde haired man recognizing him.
"He works with Shredder, Hun."
Slash remembering his name along how he was the enforcer of the Foot clan, in which Hun. Noticing a shadow above him, the Foot ninjas noticed as well making Hun upset.
"You should have watched if you were being followed, dumb ass."
Hun spoke as he grabbed the cop and broke his neck with a single choke hold. Gasping at the sight, along how their cover was blown. Batgirl along the others leapt down from the sky light making the glass come down, as well landing on the ground to see the Foot ninjas pulling out their swords as well Hun smirking at them.
"So your the Bat brats that this place has been talking about, should have stayed in your homes playing Fortnite."
Cracking his knuckles as he orders the ninjas to attack, coming out of all directions. Robin as well Batgirl threw a smoke pellet blinding their sights, leaving Slash to bash them across the side sending most of the ninjas to the wall.
Robin, using his training from the league as well Batman pulled out his sword as well defended himself. The Foot ninjas came at him hard and fast striking him at every corner, leaving Robin to protect himself from the attackers. Batgirl, just moved back from the attackers seeing how it was difficult to fight men with swords.
"This is possibly unfair due to how everyone has a damn weapon!"
She shouted out how she was at a disadvantage in this situation, in which she was able to hurl a batarang towards a attacker by the side with two tonfa's. As they flew into the air, she quickly grabs them as well defends herself against a sword attack.
"Ok, I can make this work."
Suggesting to herself as she spins them around using them to defend and attack at the same time, Slash was fighting against Hun who had difficulty since the human was trained fighter and could match up to him.
"I didn't except a large shell freak like you survived after that attack on Shredder. Thought you and those friends of yours got killed."
Making Slash hesitate about be the turtle forgot about what happen, especially on a fight he had with his friends. This gave time for Hun to deliver a striking blow to his lower leg making Slash yell, to which the purple dragon man lift up the heavy mutant and throw him aside of the room into a couple of boxes. Checking out the missile, he picks it up as well arms it.
"The plan was to try and make replicas of this bad boy. But taking you out is a exception is worth taking."
Aiming it at the weakened Slash, however before he could fire upon the mutant. Both Robin and Batgirl came up right in front of him and delivered a combine attack, Robin slicing the missile sending it towards the support beams and Batgirl. Upper cutting him making Hun move back as well spitting out some blood.
"Why you two little.."
Trying to make a comment, both Batgirl and Robin three both of their fists into his face sending him into some boxes and hitting the ground hard. As he fell, the missile's impact caused the building to crumble as well start to fall. Hun, got up as well growled how he got humiliated by children as he called for a retreat. To which they fled from the scene, Robin wanted to purse them but Batgirl was with Slash trying to get him up.
"Will track them another day, please."
Batgirl asking for his assistance which made Robin annoyed, but it would unforgivable to turn away from someone in need. Helping the teenager's mutant friend, they rushed out of the building as it begun to fall right down to the ground causing smoke to erupt. Getting to a safe distance, Slash got upset at how he screwed and let Hun get away.
"Hun, hurt friends. Reason I, don't remember."
Slash spoke grabbing the side of his head, and getting frustrated in which Barbra could feel how upset he was with himself. To which she placed a hand on his shoulder showing that he wasn't to blame.
"Don't worry, will get him next time. As well have him explain what happen, if we could have assistance."
Barbra asked looking to Robin, who was taking a moment to think about that both of them weren't bad. Not exactly him with his training from mastered assassins, but spirit that would go up against any foe. He turned to Batgirl and her large turtle friend as he nodded silently.
"Yeah, but I'll be leading the team. Have to make sure you two don't fall behind."
Robin trying to act tough as Barbra merely hugs him making Robin a bit embarrassed by this affection, Slash turned and hugs them back in return. Seeing how he has a new friend to aid them in figuring out what the Foot were doing here, and regain his memory on what happen with the fight against Shredder.
