Bat Family Times

~Dick & Jason~

~Chapter 8: Dick & Jason~

There were only a few things in life that could make Jason feel sad. Those things were Bruce, Bruce, and... Bruce.

Now he was just exaggerating. Bruce wasn't the only thing that made him feel down, there other things mostly people that did too.

He'd feel sad whenever he'd get any kind of flashback from any time before he died. Those hit pretty hard. He still didn't remember everything from his past and each new memory he gained every once in a while kept the pain with him.

He would feel sad on certain days like the anniversary of his death, the anniversary of his mother's death, and just really any anniversary that had to do with himself.

As much as he wouldn't want to admit it, demon spawn and replacement really did help him when he felt sad. Of course Alfred did as well, but that was expected.

His last trouble was the one man who pretty much was always involved in everything and his name is Dick. Now you might say, "oh, well isn't that he the one who always make sure everyone's okay and does everything in his power to make sure that they are the misfit family that they are", and in those terms yes he is. But he knew Dick before he became Nightwing, before they had the other two siblings they does now, and he knows the dark sides of Dick. 

Dick was like your favorite toy as a child. You love it and think you'll love it forever, but once you've had a while, you have no interest in it. It is just another you have. That was what Dick did, a new toy that got old. He had just made Jason not be able to do anything and all he could do was sit and watch from a distance because he knew that if he tried to change anything it would make it worse.

It caused Jason to be the one having to pick himself back up again. And like everything, it gets tiring.

Dick wasn't what everyone in the family thought him to be. When he was still Robin, he and Dick had a great relationship. They trusted each other with everything, including secrets. 

Jason and Dick started telling secrets that nobody, not even Batman knew other than maybe the God above. Dick told him things like some of the specifics of when it was captured by Deathstroke and knew the extent of how bad he felt when his parents died. And it all changed when he died.

Why, why did he have to die!? So many things changed. Jason had completely changed, for the worse causing everything he knew to collapse. Dick was one of those things. His death crushed what sanity Dick had had and made him break up with the young justice and go solo.

Even when he had come back from the dead, nothing could change what had happened. 

AN: I seriously don't know what I just wrote... I just knew I needed to write something. Do you think I should continue this chapter? I might take this one down because I don't think it is as good... tell me what you think!
