The Nightwing: Robin Evolved

Chapter 1: Back to the beginning

Robin sat in his room. Once again his teammates were arguing about something stupid. They were getting older and they didn't have the time to be arguing over bull. He could hear someone fighting. He thought it might have been Cyborg and Raven. He didn't care anymore. He didn't want to have to carry the team like he always did. So he began to sew.

"I'm tired of this team being so bitchy!" Cyborg yelled. "Well then maybe you should quit!" Beast-boy yelled at him. "I've done that already, and every time I do I hear, `Cyborg, come back!' Forget you guys. I'm going to bed!"

Dick was finished sewing and put his creation into a suitcase with a lot of other clothes. He took of his Robin outfit and put it in the suitcase too. He walked out of the room and into the living room where Starfire, Beast-boy and Raven were still arguing. He simply walked out of the door without saying a word. Starfire noticed and went after him.

"Robin, where are you going?" He stopped but did not turn around. "Robin…is dead." He walked off onto a boat and sailed onto the main land. He had $5000 in his pocket and decided to catch a cab. He was wearing some jeans with a red shirt. The cab pulled to the curb. Dick got into the car. "So where are you headed kid?" The driver asked. "Gotham City."

The taxi driver had stop for some gas and Dick went into the store. He looked around for some candy. He went to the back of the store. Then he suddenly heard gunshots in the front. He ducked down in the back of the aisle. He hoped the gunner did not hear him. Dick snuck his way to the front and could see the man. He was wearing all black and a sock over his face. He looked about 6'1. The man raised the gun again and this time Dick ran up and kicked the gun out of his hand. The man swung at him but Dick ducked. He punched the man in the gut and then kneed him in the face.

The robber was on the floor holding his bloody nose. "No more!" He said putting a hand up. Dick picked up the gun and handed it to the cashier. "Call the police."

He walked out of the store and stepped back into the cab. "What happened in there?" The driver asked anxiously. "Someone was making popcorn." The driver started the cab back up and they were on the road again to Gotham City.

"Thanks for the ride." Dick paid the driver and got out of the car. He picked up his suitcase and walked to into the house in front of him: Bruce Wayne's mansion.

"Don't worry Alfred, I'll get it." Bruce Wayne got up to answer the door. He was worried because nobody made it to the front door without being chased by his dog. He opened it to find Dick Grayson petting the dog. "So you decided to come back?" Bruce let him come in. "Don't get it twisted Bruce. I'm not here because I want to be. I'm here because I have nowhere else to go." "Sure. Put your bags upstairs. I'll meet you in the cave." Dick walked up the spiral steps and walked into his old room. He could see that it hadn't been touched since he left.

Dick pulled the lever, which opened the door to the bat cave. He missed walking down these steps. He saw Bruce searching on the net. "There has been a lot of crime since you gone. I…" "Wait a minute. I told you I'm not here to be your partner again. I'm just going to be here for a while until I can decide what I'm going to do." Bruce looked surprised. "So you never told me why you left the Titans." "There were a lot of problems and I was sick and tired of solving all of them. Maybe if I'm not there with them they'll calm down a bit and start acting like a team. You wouldn't know anything about that, would you Bruce?" Wayne got up from his chair and into Dick's face. "Let me hear one more piece of shit come out of your mouth! I'll make sure you regret it." He sat back down in his seat. "One more thing" Robin said.

The front door closed and Robin began ringing the doorbell. "C'mon Bruce! I was just playing!" He picked up his suitcase and went around to the back.

"Stupid brat," Bruce said as he sat back down in his computer chair. "So what's that guy about?" Dick said pointing to a joker look-alike on the screen. Bruce got up. "Get the hell out!" "You can't do that! You're my legal guardian, remember?" Bruce had forgotten all about that. He sat back down in the chair. "This is Harvey Watson, The joker's son." "He has a son? Man I have been gone for a while." The alarm went off. "Someone is breaking into my corporation building!" Bruce got up and ran to his suit, which was in a tube. He stopped to see that Dick was not following. "So you weren't kidding?" He asked him former partner. "I meant it." Bruce ran off into the darkness and suited up.

Dick walked out of the bat cave and went into the kitchen. He opened the refrigerator and found a slice of cheesecake. He took it out and went to the living room with it. He turned on the TV and watched what was on the news."We are here at Wayne corporations and Batman is beating the snot out of the Riddler. The Riddler was trying to break in and steal information. Luckily…" Dick turned off the TV. He put down his cake. "Is something the matter young sir?" Alfred said coming out of nowhere. "Al, I don't know what I'm gonna do." He told his long time friend. "Like I always say, go with your heart. It's always the best thing to follow."

When Bruce got back, Alfred gave him a note from Dick. "Bruce, went to go do some soul searching. Expect a new hero to come abroad. C'ya, Dick. Bruce laughed. "That kid has got heart."

It was night and Dick only had his suitcase with him. He stopped because he heard something. Someone was yelling in the apartment building in front of him. He thought this was as good a time as any to reintroduce himself. He went into an ally and changed.

A woman was running from her drunken husband. He was trying to kill her. "*Come here bitch! Ima teach you some manners!*" He grabbed his wife and slapped her to the ground. "No honey please!" The woman said crying. Suddenly someone came crashing through the window. He was wearing a black suit with the sign of the firebird on his chest. "Don't do that." The `mysterious' figure said. "And who the hell are you?" The drunk said. "I am Nightwing." He punched the drunken man down. He kicked him into a corner. "I want you call the cops." Nightwing said and flew out of the window. "Hello, yes, I want to report a break in."
