~Dixie's POV~

It's been a day after the whole Zucco incident. I haven't seen Bruce nor the others since then. Alfred usually checks up on me and brings me some food. I am currently laying down on my bed, staring at the ceiling thinking. What if they don't want me anymore? What if they want to sent me back to the orphanage? I teared up at the thought of them sending me back, leaving me alone... I grabbed my stuffed elephant, Peanut, and cried what felt like eternity. 

~Terry's POV~

I am currently at the Batcave with Bruce and the others. "So what will happen to Dixie?" Jason asked Bruce. After the whole fiasco yesterday, we are waiting for Bruce' decision. "I have been thinking about letting Dixie join us. With a bit of training, she can help fight crime" "WHAT?!" We all screamed at his decision. "Bruce, she's just a nine year old girl" I pointed out but then Cass and Steph glared daggers at me. "Why what's wrong with being a girl?" Steph said glaring at me. "Nothing it's just that she's too young to be out there" Steph sighed. "If Bruce believes in her than she can join" "As do I" Cassandra agreed with Stephanie. "If you agree with Bruce than as do I" I agreed with them. We turned to Tim, Jason and Damian. "I think I speak for the three of us that we think that Dixie is old enough to take care of herself" Damian spoke up with Jason and Tim both nodding in agreement. the rest of us walked upstairs to the living room while I went to call Dixie to go down.When I reached the door, I  heard her crying. I knocked on Dixie's door and spoke, "Dixie? Are you okay in there?" I opened the door and what I saw broke my heart.
