He had been stuck in there for days he tried to escape multiple times and was brought back and beaten up , after a few weeks of being in there his captors stopped showing up he was left there all alone. He was captured after being in a fight with Bruce about something stupid that he can’t quite remember. Bruce probably wasn’t searching for him . He was going to die hurt and alone. He was getting tired from not having anything to eat or drink for days. And everything hurt … his ribs , legs, arms and head hurt. He felt so tired So he let go to escape from all of the pain and he fell asleep ______________________________________ He woke up to noises outside of the room he was in . He didn’t have the energy to try and scream for help so he just opened his eyes to try and investigate. The only thing he saw was a blob of black and blue looking through the door and then he heard someone scream something that he didn’t quite understand . The voice sounded familiar to him… was it dick? He focused to try and understand what he was saying “… m can you hear me ” Tim tried to answer but was only able to mumble and moan in pain "It’s ok baby bird we’re here … you’re safe now" He heard footsteps getting closer and then talking “How is he?” " it’s not looking good B he’s in bad shape… he is malnourished and dehydrated he needs immediate medical care !" " hey Timmy can you tell me what hurts " Tim barely managed to say anything but he was able to answer "leg r’bs an’ head” "Okay baby we’ll get you home soon try to stay awake " "H… hurts" "I know baby but you can’t fall asleep " For a moment Bruce and dick talked to each other before dick talked to him "Hey baby bird we’re going to have to lift you ok " He nodded and hands appeared under his body to lift him which hurt like hell. He started crying out in pain as he was slowly lifted into Batman’s arms. As Bruce started walking towards the Batmobile he held Tim close to him trying to comfort his son who was crying in pain When they arrived to the car dick opened the door and helped Bruce put Tim in the car where robin and red hood were already sitting. They put Tim’s head into Jason’s lap his big brother then started to play with his hair. It relaxed Tim and he closed his eyes. “No baby bird open your eyes you can’t sleep” “M’Tired” “I know but you know that you can’t fall asleep before we get you to the cave” Tim hummed and did his best to not fall asleep it was hard but he managed. It’s only a few minutes later that they arrived at the cave where Alfred was waiting with Leslie. He was lifted out of the car by Jason who told him “you can sleep now Timmy” and he did exactly that ________________________________________
He woke felling like he was floating when he opened his eyes he saw that he was in the batcave medbay his first thought was what am I doing here . Then he remembered a little bit he remembered being kidnapped and tortured for weeks but he didn’t remember anything about being saved by his family
“Hey how are you feeling” Tim turned his head only to see Jason with a book on his lap and duke snoring in the chair next to him
“Like shit”
“Are you in any pain??”
“No not really which is surprising considering the situation”
“Leslie gave you the good stuff… I’m really happy that you’re ok we almost lost you”
“How much time was I missing”
“6 weeks”
“Hey Timmy!” said dick as he ran to go and hug his baby brother
Bruce arrived and gave him a kiss on the forehead before saying “you need rest” and Tim just nodded and fell asleep cuddling with his big brother and feeling safe surrounded by his family
