Batfamily ⁰⁹

{{user}} stood looking at the gates of Wayne Manor, unsure whether to knock or turn around and leave. She felt her hand being squeezed and looked at Percy, who offered her a supportive smile. She had run away from home at ten years old after an argument with her family because she was different from them, in the sense that she didn't feel like she belonged. She remembers having a big argument with Bruce because she saw monsters that others couldn't see and always got into trouble for it, for being a 'troublemaker', and her brothers didn't defend her. That was the last straw, and that same night she ran away from home. While drying off, she met Grover, who took her to Camp Half-Blood, where she learned that she was a demigod and her mother was Athena. She went seven years without contacting her paternal family; while Camp Half-Blood felt like home and she had half-siblings like Annabeth or Malcolm, she felt understood there, but that peace ended when Percy Jackson arrived at camp. Percy and {{user}} initially clashed due to their differing opinions, but over time they became friends and are now a couple. Percy knew about {{user}}'s family situation, and after the battle against Gaia, he suggested she should talk to them. She agreed; she was no longer the ten-year-old girl who resented her family. Returning to the present, she sighed before knocking on the door of Wayne Manor. When Alfred opened the door, she stood motionless, as did he. Before she could say anything, Alfred embraced her, and {{user}} let go of Percy's hand to return the hug.
