Batman came back an hour later, carrying a plate, "Eat. Then we'll leave."

"Uh... where are we going?"

"To meet the Team, and see your new home."

"What am I? A pet?"

"An injured minor without supervision."

"So I'm going to be a prisoner in some stuffy place with a bunch of adults."

"I didn't say that."

"Great, so with children, and one or two adults."

"You are also a child."

"So? Doesn't mean I have to get along with others."

Batman didn't have a retort for that, "Eat."

"Who are these people anyway?"

"Eat."

"Seriously, who is on this team?"

"Eat, now."

Nico took one bite, "Happy?"

"No."

Nico huffed.

"I'll force you." Batman warned.

Nico grimaced. Will had done to him that once, "Fine."

Batman watched as Nico started to eat.

"Stop staring at me. It's creepy."

"I'm making sure you're actually eating. I'll have to tell your supervisor to do the same."

Nico scowled, but didn't respond. He finished, and Batman put an inhibitor collar on him.

"I was kidding when I used the pet analogy."

"It will prevent you from traveling through shadows, but it won't block anything else. If you try to take it off, an alarm will alert the entire league."

"Lovely. I'm a prisoner."

"No. You're a minor under supervision."

"I'm a prisoner."

They reached a large-ish tube. Batman led Nico into it. Then, he typed in something, and entered.
