'Right, I called this meeting about the intruder alarm that went off earlier. Flash, you said you knew something about It.' started superman before handing the meeting over to someone else. He always did this; he would call a meeting but not know what to say once everyone was looking at him expectantly.

'Well, me and Hal-'he started talking quickly only to be interrupted by Batman's gravelly voice.

'Hal and I.' He corrected simply before shutting his mouth again, Flash looked at him incredulously.

'Yeah... okay, anyway we were walking past Bat's room to see if we could borrow some notes...' he carried on before his voice trailed slightly, like he was slightly embarrassed.

'Then, when we knocked on the door and the intruder opened the door?!' he exclaimed dramatically, the other founders cast glances at each other, not sure whether to take Flash seriously.

'That's a lovely story Flash, but mind telling us what the intruder looked like?' asked Hawkgirl in her most patient voice she could muster, which wasn't very much.

'He was small, couldn't have been older than 6 and he was dressed up like a traffic light.' He said unaware of the rest of the league's apprehension.

'If he was only a little child how did he get past two grown heroes?' asked Martian Man hunter in his emotionless calm voice. Flash looked more than a little embarrassed as he scratched the back of his neck.

'Well, the traffic cone kid was trained!' he said defensively, some of the league members looked tired. They had listened to Flash's speech attentively but clearly it wasn't going anyway. Suddenly there was a small growl from under the table and a flash of colour jumped up looking peeved.

'I don't look like a traffic cone!' he cried indignantly, all the league members seemed to stare before they moved into action.

'Robin, be quiet, Flash is bating you because you humiliated him.' Batman said bluntly to the small raven-haired boy who grinned at the older vigilante warmly. Everyone around the table seemed too shocked to say anything, wonder woman even had her mouth hanging open.

'You knew about the intruder all along?' asked Flash, looking shocked and rather annoyed. Batman raised his eyebrow behind his mask but his face remained stoic.

'He's with me.' he said shortly, the league's reaction was worse than he had anticipated.

'What do you mean? He is an intruder and a child.' asked superman suspiciously. Wonder woman and Hawkgirl were talking in monosyllables to each other, so they could have a conversation without Superman hearing.

'No, he is my partner.' Batman replied bluntly stopping superman arguing. Green lantern looked appalled but before he could say anything Robin started talking again.

'I'm not a child! I'm six and three-quarters!' he said a pucker forming between his eyebrows as he sat on Batman. He was upset because Superman didn't like him, he had messed up. Wonder woman thought her heart melted at the sight of the forlorn little bird. She needed no reassurance as far as it came to Batman's choices; Robin had wormed his way into her heart instantly.

Robin was determined to look like he didn't care; Batman did that all the time. There was a silence in the room that was becoming increasingly awkward. Superman, Green Lantern and J'onn were staring at Batman as if questioning his sanity. They couldn't believe that Batman would bring a child into this line of work, it was disgusting!

'Why would you bring a six-year-old into this line of work as a sidekick?' accused Green Lantern. Both Robin and Batman clenched their fists angrily; Robin was not a sidekick! They glanced at each other for a long time, having a silent conversation before Batman nodded.

'You think I would bring an untrained child to the watch tower as my partner?' Batman asked simply, almost willing someone to say something. Green Lantern narrowed his eyes, at a loss for what to say but still extremely unhappy.

'Robin.' The dark knight stated simply and the young acrobat jumped into action. Batman swung at him but the boy dodged easily, this turned into a serious sparring match, which the others watched in awe and shock.

The boy giggled happily as he held his own against his mentor, the looks on Wonder woman and Flash's face was hilarious. Batman stopped and the boy jumped onto his shoulders clinging like a monkey, his face alight with happiness.

'Have I proved my point yet?' asked Batman and was met by a satisfying silence. He shook Robin from his back and the little boy landed lithely on his feet before reaching into his Superman bag under the table pulling out Batman's newest artistic creation. He hadn't had time to look at it before the meeting.

'Fine, Batman he can stay but you can't just let anyone into the watchtower.' Superman warned and Batman rolled his eyes under his mask, the Boy Scout was talking to him like he didn't know this already. The tension had eased from the room and conversations were started among small groups, Robin walked over to his mentor, purple horse drawing in hand, turning different ways as if it would make it clearer.

'Batman there is something wrong with the horse you drew me.' he stated, pointing at its "tail".

'Why does it have 5 legs? Horses don't have 5 legs.' He continued.

'Robin, we can talk about this later.' He sighed; this boy would be the death of his crime-fighting career! What was batman without the intimidation?

'But you drew the horse, how am I supposed to find out why the horse has five legs?' he said loudly drawing the attention of Flash and many of the others. Batman wanted to bang his head against a brick wall repeatedly.

'How about you draw a horse then.' Snapped Batman slightly, he was losing his patience and just wanted to relax.

'Okay then.' Robin chirped happily before sitting down to do some more drawing. Flash zoomed over to the Dark knight's side.

'I didn't know you were into drawing with crayons Bats!' he sniggered at the black-clad vigilante. Batman smirked as he replied.

'I didn't know the fastest man alive couldn't catch a six-year old.' Flash laughed at that.

'Touché.' He said before zooming over to the little boy who was concentrating intensely on the paper in front of him.

'What you drawing Robbie-boy?' he asked enthusiastically, Robin didn't look away from the paper as he answered.

'I'm drawing Superman.' He said quietly, writing his name and age by the picture in chicken scratch writing.

'Why?' Barry asked, he swore the Bat's kid shouldn't draw other heroes; it just made no sense.

'Because, superman doesn't like me very much and I thought he might like me if I drew him a picture.' Said the ebony sadly, Flash nearly winced at the pain in the little boy's voice. Superman must have heard as well because he looked a little guilty.

'Ah, don't worry about it kid, I like you.' He said whole-heartedly, the boy smiled a bit but still looked a little dejected.

'Do you want to go for a tour around the tower; I'll give you a piggyback.' Flash coaxed, earning a brilliant smile from the tiny child who nodded and jumped on his back. Batman was in conversation with Wonder woman when he heard a giggle and saw a blur of red.
