Baby Bat Part 6

“Is it true? Am I really pathetic?

“Sweetie of course is not true. Most people would have broken underneath the stress you are going through right now. It is because you’re strong that you're able to retain your own identity at this point.”

“I'm sure the Damien is just confused as you are. It was only recently that he got you as a father and now he lost you again. I think in his own words he’s trying to say that you no more have to be burdened with your past.”

“You are no longer the Batman. You’re now someone new, someone better. Right now, I believe that Damien is calling himself pathetic because he can't handle what's going on right now. I'm sure that with time you'll be able to accept who and so will he.”

“I’m sure that you'll be a wonderful superhero when you grow up. I promise that your future is a bright one and when you get old enough you can join the Teen Titans. I know I'm not teenager anymore but both Dick and I have decided instead of joining the League will stay on with the Titans in order to make sure that they're ready and trained properly.”

“Though I do guess we'll have to figure out yourself a new secret identity before then. We can’t keep calling you Batman while in the field.” “But I still want to be Batman.”

Bee looked sad knowing that her time as Batman was up. She spent many years fighting crime as the Batman and now she was told that she had to leave that title behind. It was a hard dose of reality that she needed to hear sooner rather than later.

“I’m sorry sweetie, but you can’t. Remember you’re a female now. Calling yourself Batman isn’t a possibility. Do you have any other ideas?” “No,” Bee said as she hung her head. “Well, that’s fine. No one expects you to come up with a new name on the drop of a dime. Though for now how about we call you Baby Bat.”
