Bruce's POV

We pull into the BatCave. Damian automatically jumps out of the BatMobil and starts to walk up the stairs. "Damian Al-Ghul Wayne come here right now!" I yell after him. He freezes and slowly turns on his heels to face me. I point to the place in front of me. He gets the hint and stomps over to me. "Yes farther?" He spits. I grind my teeth. "What the living hell where you thinking?" I ask, anger leaking into my words. He scoffs. "The hostage was going to die, I stopped it from happening." He answers like it's no big deal. I ball my hands up in fists. "You went against my direct order and could've gotten yourself killed Damian." I try to explain. "Tt farther nothing bad happened." "BUT IT COULD HAVE!" I scream. Damian stiffs. "You could have DIED! Died Damian! When we are on the filled I need you to listen to me not do whatever you want. You will be getting punished for this." Damian looks down at his intertwined hands and fidgets nervously. "My apologies farther." He whispers so quietly it's barley audible. I let out a sigh. "Go change out of your Robin uniform and then come back to the cave."  I command. He nods and quickly leaves. I slowly walk over to the elevator. I ride it all the way up to my bedroom.

I walk into my bedroom. I quickly change out of my BatMan uniform into black sweatpants and a black workout tee. I throw the BatMan suit into the special laundry shoot I had put in and re-enter the elevator riding it back down to the cave.

I walk over to the BatComputer and collapse into the chair. Damian then comes walking down the stairs wearing Black sweatpants and a red over-sized t-shirt that most likely belonged to Jason. He slowly shuffles over to me not looking up from the ground. "Damian I am highly disappointed in the behavior you showed out there, because you disobeyed a direct command you will be bench for the rest of the week." I state. It is already Friday so he will only be benched for the weekend. "Do I make myself clear?" "Yes sir." Damian whispers without looking up. "Look at me Damian." I command. He slowly meets my eyes and I am taken back from what I see. Fear. I reach out for him but he violently flinches back. "Damian?" He then starts to shake. "I'm sorry." A choke sob spills out. I quickly stand making Damian stubble back. I freeze not wanting to scare him anymore then I already have. "I'm sorry Baba." He sobs. I quickly kneel down in front of him. "I know you are and I forgive you. It's okay." I try to comfort. Fat hot tears start to run down his cheeks. I open my arms. "Come here Ibn." I call. He slowly shuffles into my embrace. I scoop him up sitting him on my hip. "It's okay. You're okay." I coo. He berries his head into my neck. I slowly walk around the cave lightly bounce him.

After around 30 minutes his sobs have calmed down to hiccups. I gently sit down onto the BatComputer chair. "Can you look at me ibn?" I gently ask. Damian slowly looks up at me with his big green eyes. I gently wipe his cheeks not missing how he lightly flinches. "Can you tell me what's got you so upset?" I ask in what I'm hoping is a gently sounding voice. His bottom lip starts to quiver. "Y-you s-said I-I'm going to get get p-punished." He stutters out, letting a few new tears slip too. I stare at him confusedly. "I did. That is why you are grounding from patrol for the weakened. That is your punishment." I state. He looks down at his lap and fidgets with his hands. "S-so I w-want get w-whipped?" He quietly asks. My stomach drops. Whipped? Why the hell would he think that? "Of course not!" I exclaim. Damian flinches back. "Damian look at me." I gently ask lowing my voice. He slowly does. "I will never and when I say never I mean never will I ever physically punish you. Do I make my self clear?" I ask. He slowly nods. "What did I say?" "You will never physically punish me." He repeats. "Do you understand that Damian? I am not your mother or grandfather. I will never hurt you." Damian nods. He then glances down at his hands before looking back up. "C-can I have a hug?" He shyly asks. A smile breaks across my face. "Of course you can." Damian practically attacks me, snuggling into my arms. "I love you Damian don't forget that." I whisper. "I love you to Baba."
