Jason cursed as he finally made it into the house, he had almost forgotten how paranoid Bruce was. Once he had closed the window, he muttered to himself about a little demonic brat. This was the last place he wanted to be, it held too many memories.
He paused to make sure he had landed where he meant to, he was exactly where he wanted to be, in the Parlor where most missions started out. The familiar clock sat right where he remembered. Nothing has changed at all. The whole room was exactly the same.
He shook his head and looked to the fireplace that was just dying down the red glow told him that it had been out long enough to say that Alfred was most likely in bed at this point or down in the cave giving information to Batman. His eyes moved up expecting to see the familiar portrait of Bruce with his parents when he was eight. But, he didn’t expect this.
He felt his mouth drop. He remembered hearing about a family portrait being painted, but he didn’t expect to see himself standing next to Alfred in a black suit. He started to ponder if his invite really did get lost in the mail.
He felt something in the bit of his stomach, he couldn’t tell what it was, Anxiety, or if he was just…
Footsteps could be heard coming from the upstairs, he could hear them coming towards the parlor he was in. He dashed for the window and silently opened it carefully slipping through before closing it behind him and running off.
He could always get a new helmet.
