The little black dragon in the bat nest

He won the last war.

He lost the dragon that accompanied him.

They defeated the black dragon that destroyed the world, scattered the dark clouds covering the sky, and brought vitality and hope back to the earth.

All the pain is dissipating, and the people who are free from death threats pass the news to family and friends.

They no longer have to worry about losing their lives suddenly, they can continue to enjoy the sunshine.

The price was the loss of a dragon who watched over them.

The price is nothing but the loss of a full member of the Justice League.

The price is nothing but... Gotham's Dark Knight bids farewell to his dragons with his sidekicks.

"Uh……"

Waking up again from a deep nightmare, Bruce sat up and looked down at his hands, subconsciously staring at the picture in front of him.

Because the lights were not turned on, and the heavy curtains blocked the moonlight at night outside the house, the figures of all objects in the house were swallowed and assimilated by the darkness.

The hand that landed on the quilt was still trembling unconsciously, and the blue veins on the back of the hand were slightly raised.

After a long time, Bruce suddenly raised his hand and put it on his forehead.

His fingers inserted into the hair on his forehead, and finally slid down slowly to cover his eyes.

There was deep darkness in front of him. Even though Bruce had woken up, his mind was still immersed in that dream.

That was the picture he had seen before.

It was the combination and mixing of countless broken patterns that he had always been afraid of.

Black bats spread their wings; empty alleys; blood-stained pearls.

The fear of being chased; the roar of the explosion the first time I lost control echoed in my ears; dragon's blood slipped from my face.

It was as if they were made after extracting key information from his memory. Countless absurd and unruly abstract portraits were randomly cut and glued together again indiscriminately.

The markers inside were distorted into weird shapes.

But in the face of those scenes, the feeling of being firmly bound by the past and unable to break free has always been entangled in my heart.

Until the next moment, these distorted items were shattered, and a beam of light fell.

The scenery began to improve, and there was a familiar and intimate touch on his cheek.

The black dragon that rubbed its cheeks with delicate scales looked at him, and his shadow was reflected in the vertical golden pupils, gentle and calm, just like Nidhogg in the past.

Then the moment he stretched out his hand to try to touch it, it turned into bubbles and disappeared like the ending of the fairy tale of the Little Mermaid.

finally--

Bruce closed his eyes, and growled silently from his lips.

Lie down on the bed again but completely lost sleepiness, Bruce looked at the top of his head quietly until the golden sunlight slipped into the room outside the window.

Can't sleep at all.

How could it be possible to sleep.

Turning over, Bruce buried his face in the pillow, just like he did when he was a child.

Since then, the house has once again fallen into dead silence.

When Alfred knocked on the door, there was no response.

After reminding his master, who didn't want to get up, that he still had a meeting to attend today, Alfred turned around and saw the three little ones standing behind him.

……

Or to be more accurate, there are two takeaway ones.

"Bruce isn't up yet?"

Although it was a question, Dick, who had already gotten the result after seeing the housekeeper's expression, poked the younger brother next to him: "Well, it seems that you can't submit your plan to the guardian this morning."

Jason slapped Dick's paw away unceremoniously as he was being poked.

"Watch your movements, Dick."

Glancing at his brother in warning, Jason then sneered to show that he laughed at the guardian hiding in the house.

"I never expected him to wake up on time in the morning."

"Also, mine is not a plan, it's a notice! Don't call me something written by a naive kid."

Throwing away Dick's arm on his shoulder, Jason immediately put away his calm expression after quietly waiting for Alfred to leave, and took a few steps forward.

But the moment he raised his hand, Dick, who was still maintaining a friendly expression, suddenly changed his face, and rushed over in horror, pressing his hand with one arm and locking his throat with the other arm. .

"Stop, just calm down!"

"Even if you really want to fly solo and kick Bruce away to find territory by yourself, you can't just plan to smash Bruce's door and arrest him right now!"

Bruce will literally punch you.

He will never let it go for the sake of your shallow father-son relationship, Jason, calm down!

Jason who originally planned to knock on the door to wake up his old father: ...

What the hell, do I, Jason, seem like such a no-brainer?

What the hell did you label me?Dick, explain it to me!

Tim on the side looked at Jason's dark face, then at Dick who seemed to be persuading Jason with genuine emotion, and then took three steps back very wisely, finding a best observation point away from the battlefield and squatting down.

To be honest, sometimes he really doesn't understand why Dick always likes to tease Jason.

Knowing that Jason has a bad temper, he always rushes to his explosive zone to dance and dance. After being beaten, he doesn't have a long memory. Let's continue next time.This spirit is really...

admirable.

Thinking of this, Tim couldn't help touching his abdomen subconsciously.

That's where he got his first fight with Jason.

Impress him.

'The real warrior of Wayne Manor, Dick Grayson. '

Just when Jason almost couldn't help having a "friendly exchange" with his brother here, the door in front of him was finally slowly opened.

Although Bruce couldn't sleep at all, he still pulled up the covers over his head when Alfred knocked on the door for the first time.

He originally planned to pass the test in such a muddled manner, how long he could delay it.

Until those two bad sons quarreled at his door.

Bruce, who had a headache from the noise, opened the door, rubbed his temples, and opened his eyes to see Dick in a chokehold posture and Jason who gave him a hard elbow.

The dull impact and Dick's cry of pain came to his ears, and Bruce looked at the two wretched sons expressionlessly, feeling a little itchy for the first time.

Even when Dick didn't listen to his order and brought Little Flash and others into Cadmus, he didn't think so.

Even when Jason slapped the table and yelled at him before, he didn't have this urge.

and so……

"Your training content needs to be reviewed."

Dick:? ? ?

Jason:? ? ?

Wait, my fight with Winglet/Dick didn't bother you/What's your business?

Tim clapped his hands, got up and hurried to run: in the end, Batman killed the two former assistants in seconds.

Sure enough, ginger is still old and spicy.

"Bruce, do you want to take a break recently?"

Dick, who was lying on the ground after being beaten, stared at the ceiling of the training room, and said to the old father who was about to put on his armor on the other side: "The law and order in Gotham is much better now, and there are not so many little messes at night." Gangster."

"You can rest for a while."

After thinking about it, Dick got up and sat cross-legged on the ground looking at Bruce who suddenly stopped.

"You've been in a bad state lately."

"That thing...we all know and understand you, but, Bruce..."

"I know my situation well."

Bruce interrupted Dick, picked up the mask, and said without looking back: "You guys think too much."

"If you think the work is too easy, I can delegate some tasks to you."

"Come on, are there any extra tasks at this time?"

Jason on the side directly lifted Bruce's desk with a big grin: "Superman and his girlfriend have gone to meet their parents to discuss marriage-related matters, let alone Aquaman and Wonder Woman."

"Even the Avengers next door have a life of inviting us to play games, save yourself, how can there be so many difficult villains to clean up for us now."

"It's almost time for you to retire, too."

Dick: ...Very well, as expected of Jason.

"Don't say you're fine."

Jason leaned against the wall and looked at Bruce with a look of 'I've seen through you': "I bet you won't even be able to sleep at night because of that."

"Strange behaviors can be seen by everyone. Your camouflage skills really need to be relearned."

"Click-"

Bruce put the visor down.

Is there something wrong with him?certainly.

Has his emotion leaked?He's not sure now.

He admitted that he couldn't get out of that scene.

The black dragon disappeared in front of him, and the broken data flow dissipated little by little.

Even the strange machine that Nid Hogg called the Digimon turned into a cold and stiff stone, as if warning him all the time that he could not go back.

The dense tingling pain slowly climbed to the whole body, and even the breathing began to be difficult.

Bruce forgot how he got back to his bedroom.

When he reacted, he was already holding the petrified Digimon in his palm.

Nieder Hogg had introduced this instrument to him.

She said that this is something unique to Digimon and its partner, and it is the product of the close connection between them.

As long as this thing is there, they will never be separated.

Bruce looked down at the stone in his palm.

There was a cold touch under the fingertips, and the stone could no longer respond.

'Should I put it down? '

Yes.

'Is it possible to go out? '

……

Bruce knew the answer to that question well.

The next day, there was a sudden roar in Wayne Manor.

Bruce, Dick, Jason, Tim and Alfred stare at the strange woman who suddenly appears.

The other party didn't seem to have any hostility.

Her eyes turned around all the people present, and finally fell on Bruce.

Then, Bruce heard the man say "Are you Nid Hogg's human partner?".

At this moment, the brain slowly stopped working, and some possibility came to mind, and a voice in the hidden corner of the heart began to roar.

The hope that was extinguished is slowly reborn.

The heartbeat began to speed up, and it seemed that the excessively rapid heartbeat could be easily heard in the ears.

And then Bruce got the answer he wanted to hear.

"Ned Hogg is waiting for you in our world."

"You can choose to pick her up, or just..."

"how to get to?"

A slightly hoarse voice sounded, and Bruce looked at the strange woman in front of him.

"I'll bring her back."

Of course he's taking his dragon home.

"not bad."

She nodded, finally showing some approval on her calm face.

Then, she stretched out her fingertips and clicked casually in the air, and a key appeared.

Throwing the digital key to the human in front of him, Alpha left only one sentence before turning around and leaving.

"Go and open the door to find her when you're ready."

"My children have been waiting for you."
