Third person pov...

Dick was in the livingr oom when Bruce walked in, the 18 year old went tp greet the man but stopped at the haunted look in his eyes, Dicks eyes widened before texting the groupchat.

(dick) first : code Venom gang

(jason) second: oh shit

(Tim) third: Battle stsations everyone

(Damian) Fourth: we must comfort father! 

(dick) Firth: Agreed?

(Di,J,T,D) everyone:  Agreed!

end of chat...

Dick turned his phone off and stood up he then walked up to Bruces chair and sat behind his back arms and legs at his sides and hugged tight, Bruce smiled slightly he knew whispers dons arw there fir him.

Then in walked Jason,Tim and Damian. All four Boys were soon surrounding their Dad to comfort him, Jason and Tim were sitting on the arms of the chair their backs touching Bruce's arms.

Damian was curled up like a cat on Bruce's lap his head rested in his father's chest znd his legs pulled to his stomach, to them up was nice but to others outside the family it would seem weird.

Bruce smiled he had amazing sons, soon Alfred came in and Bruce began talking. The boys had heard the story before many times and wher ehappy to listen to Bruce again.

"It happened years ago but when I close my eyes I still experience it not only the gleam if wet surfaces but the nightmarish light from the flare and the pattern and the hiss if tires on pavement and the gruff, urgent voice of the water company foreman." began Bruce voice thick with sadness.

The batboys listened to his story. "It smelled of mold, earth and Stench. And sounds too, water sounds the slosh, the drizzle seeping through the cracked concrete, the Creakes, crunches, squeaks. The air was thick, oppressive cold.

Bruce breathes and Dick tightens his hug so Bruce knows he's there for him.  Bruce starts again. "-the tunnel seemed endless, finally a whimper, a human voice, a c-childs voice-" once again the Billionaires voice wavers for a moment

Jason and Tom wrap his hands into theirs and squeeze making him come back to reality, Bruce's squeezes back. "For a moment the world is a roar and then silence, until gradually u could hear all the other sounds and my own husky voice 'sissy sissy porter?' Then her voice came"

"She wasn't that old, she was tied down behind many rocks, I began gradually picking them up and tossing them trying to reach the trapped girl, when I got to the final one i-I couldn't move it" Bruce takes a moment before Continuing.

"I promised Sissy Porter I would save her but the rock was to heavy for me, I tried and tried and tried but It didn't budge, I knew the water was rising, she didn't have long so i dived underwater but still couldn't move it."

Bruce takes a breath again and Damian rest hisnhead on his father's chest hearing thr man hearts beating fast. "I went up for air and when I looked down she had drowned" Whispered Bruce curling in on himself as his hands shook.

It was silent before Alfred spoke up "as I said to you all these years Master Bruce, it wasn't you're fault but the Kidnappers" stressed the Butler he had said it every year on the same day.

Bruce smiled "I know that now Alfred" said Bruce his sons knew he took pulls called Venom which made him crazily strong but he didn't tell them everything that happend.

His sons couldn't know about that part of the story yet.

The end!
