It had been five days since Diana came over and got Dick to straighten up. He looked like his normal self again. The bags gone, he was no longer paler than a ghost, and he hadn't cried as much either. Dick was doing a lot better with Diana there, and Alfred was certainly grateful for the Amazon's help.

"Diana, how can I ever thank you for what you have done," Alfred said, both of them watching Dick play a video game on the TV.

"Alfred, you don't have to do a thing. I care about Dick the same way you and Bruce do. I didn't want him hurting himself or making himself sick because Bruce wasn't waking up, and I hope he wakes up soon or Dick may return to what he was doing."

She had hoped that Bruce would wake up from the coma days ago, but J'onn told them that he was struggling with some unknown force that only Bruce could get over. Something about his past or something emotional he's going through.

Diana sighed as she walked over to the couch and sat down next to Dick. She could see the distant look on Dick's face that never really went away. She knew that he would never fully be ok until Bruce was awake and back home with him, but it was better to see him like this then the way he was before.

"Dick, how would you like to go see Bruce?"

Dick paused his game then looked toward her. "Do you think it would do any good?" he replied not too sure if it would matter if he was there or not.

"Well they always say that people in a coma do a lot better when someone they love or care for talk to them, but if you don't want to go we don't have to."

Dick lowered his head and stared at the controller in his hands. He hadn't been to the Watch Tower in over a week. Could he stand seeing Bruce just lying there helpless? He's never seen Bruce that vulnerable before, not even when he came down with that severe case of the flu that one year.

He finally looked back up at Diana and smiled. "I'd like to go see Bruce."

Diana smiled back and she put her arm around his shoulders as they walked toward the door.

Wally stood leaning up against the wall near the kitchen entrance watching his team, minus Robin, and Tiffany playing cards. He didn't like having Tiffany in the mountain with the team. He was afraid that she was going to betray them all and he wanted her out. He watched the others get along with her like she hadn't done a thing, but he couldn't get over what she did.

'First she betrayed Robin, helping that rotten Clayface try to kill him, then she leads him into a trap, then she almost gets the whole team killed AND put Batman into a coma. Now she's justsittin' there with the rest of the team like they've been best friends forever.' Wally crossed his arms over his chest and just glares at Tiffany.

"Kid Flash, don't you want to join us? It's really fun," M'gann asked, looking over at him.

Wally just shook his head and walked into the kitchen.

M'gann looked back at the others a bit confused. "He has been acting differently since I told him about Tiffany's change of heart."

"My change of heart?" Tiffany asked confused about what she meant.

"Yes, how you were going to hurt Robin but then you changed your mind and wanted to help him."

"Oh." Tiffany lowered her head.

"Maybe that is why he has been acting different," Kaldur said, laying down a card that ended his turn in the game.

M'gann looked at him. "But why would that make him act differently?" M'gann asked still confused.

"Meg, he doesn't like me because I was helping Clayface." Tiffany spoke up.

M'gann looked to Tiffany then suddenly realized what they were talking about. "Hello, Megan. He's acting that way because he doesn't trust you." Tiffany just nodded. "But it's been about three weeks since we got you and Robin away from Clayface."

"Yeah, but not even a week since you told him that it was all her fault the whole thing started up," Superboy said, pointing at Tiffany.

"But she didn't mean..." M'gann started.

"Meg, just stop," Tiffany said as she threw the cards on the table. She then got up and walked toward the kitchen.

"Where are you going?" M'gann asked as she watched her walk away.

"To talk to Kid Flash. I don't know what it will do, but if it makes him uncomfortable for me to be here then I'll leave," she answered not even looking back.

M'gann looked shocked at that then turned to the others. "She wouldn't really leave would she?"

Wally was digging through the fridge looking for something to eat. He finally decided on the left over pizza and pulled it out and put it in the microwave.

"Kid Flash?" Tiffany asked carefully.

Wally didn't turn around, didn't say anything, he just stood there watching his food warm up and ignored her.

"Can we talk please?" she tried again.

Still he said nothing.

Tiffany sighed and walked up to him until she was an arm's length away. She reached her hand up and placed it on his shoulder. "KF?"

Wally turned around and grabbed her wrist, looking real angry. "Don't you ever call me that!" he yelled.

Tiffany looked shocked and scared. He was holding her wrist a little too tight, and was starting to hurt. He started to push her back toward the counter looking ready to kill her.

"Only Rob and my friends can call me that, not some lying traitor that has somehow convinced everyone that you're an angel now! If you ever call me that again, I'll kick you so hard out of this mountain that you won't be able to sit ever again!" He got closer to her face and his voice got quieter and more sinister. "And if you ever, EVER hurt any of my friends again, you will wish that you were dead."

Tiffany just stared up at him; terror clearly etched her face and eyes. Wally let go of her wrist and turned back to the microwave. She just stared at him for a few more minutes, tears welling up in her eyes, then ran out of the kitchen. Wally smiled as he grabbed the pizza out of the microwave and turned around, leaned against the counter, and taking a bite of the piece he held in his hand.

Tiffany ran past the couch and toward the entrance of the cave, tears falling freely from her eyes.

"Tiffany?" M'gann yelled after her as she stood up from the couch. She ran after her and caught up to her before she got completely out of the cave.

"Tiffany, what's wrong?"

Tiffany stopped and wiped her eyes. "I... I'm sorry. I can't stay here anymore."

"Why not?" M'gann asked as she took a step closer.

"Kid Flash can't stand me, and I don't want to be a problem anymore," she said as she turned back around and started walking toward the street.

"Tiffany, wait. Tiffany!" M'gann tried yelling, but Tiffany just kept walking not looking back.

Tiffany had flagged down a cab and asked him to take her to Wayne Manor in Gotham City. The driver had looked at her like 'you've got to be kidding,' but finally realized that she was serious and drove off.

She was now walking up the driveway toward Wayne Manor. She told the driver that Bruce would take care of the pay. Bruce had told her after her story about her parents, 'If you everneed a cab to get here or some where, and you have no money, just tell the driver that I'll take care of it.' She told Bruce that he didn't have to do that, but now she was grateful that he did tell her that. She vowed that she would never do it unless it was an emergency.

When she got up to the door, she knocked and waited for Alfred to open the door. After a few more seconds the door opens.

"Ah, Miss Tiffany," he said as he saw who was standing in front of him.

"Hey Alfred. Ummm... am I not allowed here anymore?"

"Now what would give you that idea?" he asked as he stepped aside for her to come in.

She walked past him and waited until he closed the door to answer him. "Well, after Robin and the team beat Clayface and they took Batman away, the Justice League told me that I couldn't come back here."

Alfred sort of chuckled at that. "Now I ask you, is the League Master Bruce?" he said as he looked down at her with a smile on his face.

Tiffany smiled back at him. "No, but if the League says something, then I just thought that they knew what they were talking about."

Alfred shook his head then replied, "You are always welcome here."

"Thanks, Alfred."

Alfred nodded in response. Tiffany looked around then looked back at Alfred. "Where's Dick and Bruce."

Alfred hesitated before he answered. "Master Bruce is away on business, and Master Dick is with a family friend."

"Oh. Do you know when they'll be back?"

"No, I'm afraid I don't," he said as he started dusting the vase he was dusting before he answered the door.

"Ok, then I'll just go to my room for a while."

Alfred nodded, but didn't turn around. Tiffany headed up the stairs and went to her room to wait for Dick to get home.

J'onn was checking Bruce over when Dick and Diana walked in the room. He noticed them coming in and walked over to them. Dick walked past him and went over and stood by Bruce. Diana stayed back and talked with J'onn.

"How's he doing?" she asked looking at Bruce lying there.

"He is still fighting, but I am afraid that he will not forever."

Diana shot her head toward him. "What does that mean?"

"It means that if he does not wake up soon, he may never wake up."

Her eyes went wide and she looked back at Bruce then to Dick. After a few more seconds she turned back to J'onn. "Isn't there anything you can do? Can't you talk to him, ask him why he's fighting?"

J'onn shook his head. "No, I have tried. He is blocking me."

Diana got a sad look on her face and looked back toward Bruce and Dick. 'This will crush Dick.'

YJYJYJYJYJYJ

Dick stood by Bruce looking down at him with tears threatening to fall. He looked over at J'onn and Diana and he could tell by the expression on Diana's face that it wasn't good.

'Bruce, you can die.'

He grabbed Bruce's hand and squeezed it. A tear escaped and fell down his cheek. He looked back over to Diana and J'onn but they were gone.

'They must have had something that they didn't want me to hear about.'

He found a chair next to the bed next to him and went to get it. He pulled it right up to Bruce's bed and grabbed Bruce's hand again. He laid his head down on the bed and let the tears fall.

After about an hour and a half, Diana brought in a plate of food for Dick to eat. He walked over to the bed and found Dick asleep holding on to Bruce's hand. She smiled and watched him sleep for a few more seconds before she gently shook him awake.

Dick blinked a few times to clear his vision and then looked up at Diana.

"I brought you some food."

"Not hungry," he said looking away from her and back at Bruce.

Diana sat the plate down on the bed and knelt down so that she was right in front of him. She turned his head so that he was looking right at her, but he was looking down.

"Dick, he's going to be ok. He's strong and ca..."

Dick jerked his head out of her hand, looked toward Bruce, and stood up so fast his seat fell back.

"Dick, what's wrong?" Diana asked also getting up, starting to get worried.

"He moved!" he replied a little too loudly.

Diana moved to the other side of the bed. She could see he was starting to wake up. His head was moving slightly, his eyes were flittering under his eyelids, and when she grabbed his other hand and squeezed it, he lightly squeezed it back.

J'onn, Flash, and Superman all heard Dick yell and ran into the room. Flash arrived first, obviously, then Superman and J'onn. J'onn went over to the side that Diana was on and she moved so he could get to the head of the bed.

It was another ten minutes before Bruce finally opened his eyes. When his eyes finally adjusted to the light, he blinked a few more times and looked around at the audience that he had. He looked from Superman and Flash, who were at the foot of the bed, to J'onn then Diana, and finally Dick.

Dick smiled at Bruce who in turned gave a small smile himself.

"Well it's about time you woke up."

Superman hit Barry for that comment, and Flash just looked at him with a look that said 'What?'

"Bruce," Diana began, "we're all glad that you're ok."

Her hand never left his, so when she said that he gave her and a little squeeze and also gave her his charming Bruce smile.

After a few more minutes of telling Bruce how glad they were that he was awake and feeling better, Diana quite literally shoved Barry out of the room, and Superman followed. J'onn was still checking Bruce out, but as soon as he was finished, he left too.

Diana walked back over to Bruce's side. "Well, I think you need some rest."

"Oh come on, he's been sleeping for three weeks. He can't be tired," Dick said with a playful smile on his face.

Bruce just looked at him a bit shocked. "Three weeks?"

"Yeah, and the press has been trying to break the door down to try to figure out where you went."

"Yeah, and we've had a fun time taking care of you too," Diana said with a playful smirk on her face.

Bruce looked at Dick with the famous Bat-glare, and Dick sort of slunk down in the chair he was sitting in. "Dick."

"Oh, Bruce, don't you dare get on to him about that. You know perfectly well that you do the same thing."

Bruce looked back to Diana and his face went back to normal then gave her a small shy smile at her remark.

Dick laughed at this and Bruce looked over to him. "What are you laughing at? She's probably kept you in line better than I ever could," he said with a smile.

Dick stopped laughing and turned his head away kind of embarrassed.

"Yeah, that's what I thought," Bruce went on with a small chuckle.

Diana was smiling and giggling at the two. It was good to see them together and happy again.

The three spent a couple more hours talking and laughing before Bruce told them, or rather Dick, to get out. It was getting late and Dick had yawned at least five times in the past minute.

They said their goodbyes and Diana and Dick went back to Wayne Manor, much happier than when they came.
