A/N: So, this is the last one people :(... I hope you'll enjoy it!

THANKS FOR ALL THE REVIEWS, FAVORITES AND FOLLOWERS!

"Well done. If you hadn't been there, then the Riddler may have escaped with the money." Commissioner Gordon said as he leans against one of the police cars. The flashing lights illuminate the most part of the street and the Riddler was along with some accomplices handcuffed and taken away.

"Luckily I had solved his riddle just in time." Batman said while he was watching besides the Commissioner. "And don't forget me. I helped too! And I'm glad I could help, I needed some action!" Robin laughed as he joins the two adults. Batman smiled briefly, he had missed moments like this with Robin.

"We have to go." he announced briefly and walked towards the Batmobile, followed by Robin. "Already? Are we going to kick more butts?" he asked excited. He sat down next Batman who just shook his head. "Aw, come on! Tell me, please? Give me a hint!" he begged now. But Batman was silent and he drove away, on the inside he was very amused by Robin's begging, but also happy that the motivation and energy of Robin hadn't suffered by the incident almost a year ago. The memory gave him chills and he thought back to a month after Dick was awakened from his coma...

"How are you feeling today? Anything better than yesterday?" Bruce asked as he came in the study. There were lots of bookshelves and a sofa for the fireplace, against the wall in the back of the room stood a wooden desk that was unused for a long time.

Dick sat in this room often since last week, on the sofa for the warm fireplace with a blanket over him and a book in his hands. Dick looked up from his book and he smiled briefly to Bruce. "I didn't faint today, I guess that's something." he joked.

Since he had woken up and since he walked small bits, he often faints. His body was still weak and he couldn't take much.

Bruce nodded approvingly and he sat down on the couch with Dick. "How was your day at work?" Dick asked quietly. "Same as always ..." he answered and Dick nodded and began to read his book again. Their conversations often went like this, they were short and Dick was often very quiet. But that would change today.

"I want to talk to you ..." Bruce began on a low and soft tone. Dick closed his book and put it aside. Bruce waited until Dick made eye contact and then continued, "I want to talk about what happened to you."

Dick's eyes grew wide for a moment and he quickly looked to the other way. Bruce sighed, this wouldn't be easy. Patiently he waited until Dick softly replied, "I don't wanna talk about it."

Bruce motioned Dick to sit next to him. Dick shoved with a hesitant glance closer and Bruce put an arm gently around him. "Dick, I know it's hard, but you need to express your feelings. Otherwise you're going to suppress it until it'll explode and perhaps you'll become depressed."

One moment, it remained silent until Dick asked, "What do you wanna know?" Bruce took a deep breath, the hardest part would come now. "What did he do to you?"

Dick turned white and Bruce thought Dick would faint, but Dick kept conscious and with a trembling voice he began to tell.

"His accomplices tied me to a chair, I didn't get anything to eat but eventually I got something to drink once. The first time he abused me, he beat me up with a baseball bat. Afterwards he often left me alone in the room; I slowly became crazy in that concrete… thing..."

Bruce rubbed supportive Dick's arm when it was clearly difficult for him to continue. Bruce felt he began to boil with rage, but he tried to stay as calm as possible. Dick continued slowly while his whole body began to shake, "On the night you saved me, he grabbed me by the throat and he began to strangle me. I was terrified and he laughed in my face and then something snapped in me and I fought back. I made an attempt to escape, but I didn't get far enough. He threw me on the ground and then ... and then ... "Dick burst into tears, "He kept stabbing me!"

Bruce hugged him and Dick grabbed frantically at his shirt. Bruce rubbed Dick's back until he only sniffed sometimes and eventually, he slowly fell asleep on Bruce his lap, exhausted from everything.

"Are we going to the Watchtower?" Robin asked surprised. Batman looked away from his panel. "You'll find out soon enough." he said with a smile. Robin was about to ask something but soon they were transported to the headquarters of the Justice League.

"What are we doing here? We aren't going to a meeting, right? I want some action!" Robin said sulking while he strolled behind Batman. Batman rolled his eyes behind his mask and he stopped suddenly for a large door and Robin, who was not paying attention, bumped into him. "Hey, why-?" but he couldn't finish his sentence through the cheers and clapping.

Batman had opened the door and behind the door stood the whole League. The meeting room was decorated with balloons and hung a banner with 'Welcome back Boy Wonder!' on it. Robin walked overwhelmed inside and looked around. Superman walked to him with open arms "We're glad you're back! A year ago we never thought you'd be here, but you didn't give up, just like a real hero."

Slowly it dawned on him, and he began to chuckle "Thanks, I didn't think I'd be missed this bad." Superman also laughed, "You mean a lot to us, and of course we miss you!" Robin looked around and he said to everyone "Thank you all so much! This means a lot to me."

"Hey Robin, we have some delicious pie!" Flash exclaimed excitedly through the hall and Robin ran laughing to Flash who stood by the table with goodies. Batman looked at him with a broad smile, a proud smile. Robin flew beside him again; they were again that unbreakable team. Their bond is stronger than ever. And through this entire event became one thing all too clear. How much Dick means to him.

His pride, his joy, his everything, his little Robin...

THE END

A/N: I want to thank everyone for this fun experience. At the beginning I was very insecure and I thought no one would like this, to my surprise I received many compliments. The reviews motivated me, I knew that what I was doing was good. Thank you all for your support! And perhaps untill a next story ;)

THANK YOU ALL!
