(Marinette's POV)

It was now Friday morning, and I decided to surprise my friends with breakfast. We had been doing tours of a bunch of places in Gotham. Sadly, the Wayne boys were not the ones giving the tours, but I can't wait to see them again. The last time we saw them was on Tuesday. We didn't have anything planned for today. We were just going to chill in the hotel. I was making a big breakfast, it included bacon, eggs, waffles, pancakes, and fruit.

I soon finished with making breakfast and went to get everyone. I knocked on Adrien's door first and he opened it. *Good morning, I made breakfast, can you help me get everyone?* I asked him. "Good morning, also sure, I will help." He gave me a kiss good morning and walked away to wake up the others. We woke up everyone else and then went to eat breakfast.

Everyone served themselves breakfast and we all ate, while having a conversation. We were just enjoying the moment. We all soon finished eating and put our dishes in the sink. This time Chloe and Alix washed the dishes. We all went and did our own thing, I decided to do more of my commissions. I want to finish the commission from the Wayne family soon.

I got the sowing stuff out and continued making the commission. I had designed it now I just had to create it. I spent a few hours on it before my phone alerted me, I had a text message. I paused what I was doing for now to look at the text message. I got up and grabbed my phone and looked at the text message, it was from Bruce.

Bruce: Hi Marinette, I got a message from Dr. Thompkins, the DNA test results are back. I am going to go to her office to see the results, I can come to pick you up if you would like?

I reread the text a few times over just to make sure I was reading it right; the DNA test results are back. I was surprised, I thought it would take longer. Then I realised that he also asked me a question, so I quickly replied.

Marinette: Hi Bruce, that would be great, if you could pick me up.

I got a reply almost immediately.

Bruce: I will be there in around 15 minutes.

Marinette: That would be great thanks.

I quickly grabbed some clothes and went to have a quick shower. I then got dressed as fast as humanly possible and styled my hair, along with doing some light makeup. I gathered my stuff and put on my shoes. I rushed into the living room, where some of my friends were watching TV. I saw Adrien on the couch and rushed over to him. I tapped on his shoulder to get his attention, and he looked at me. "What's up Milady?" He asked me. *I'm going out with Bruce; I'm probably going to be a while.* I signed to him. "Okay, have fun, let me know if you need anything." He told me. *I will.* I told him. "I love you, Milady." He told me lovingly. I looked at him passionately. *I love you too, Kitty.* I told him. We then leaned in and kissed, it was sweet and passionate.

We pulled away from the kiss, when a knock sounded on the door. *That's probably Bruce.* I told him. "Yeah, probably." He agreed with me. I walked over to the door and opened it, it was Bruce. He stood there in his usual suit. *Hi, Bruce.* I signed to him. "Hello, Marinette. Are you ready to go?" He asked me. *Yeah, I am. Just let me grab my things.* I responded. He nodded his head. I quickly walked to the living room and grabbed my things, waving to my friends as I went. I walked back to the door and me and Bruce left the hotel suite. The whole time as we walked to his car, we conversed in a light conversation. We soon arrived at his car and climbed in, him in the driver's seat and me in the passenger seat.

We took off to Dr. Thompkins's office, listening to music on the way. I admired the scenery as we drove through the streets of Gotham. It wasn't long until we arrived at Dr. Thompkins's office, either that or I was just really caught up in the scenery. We walked straight into her office, as she was waiting for us, she was just standing outside of her office.

We followed her inside her office, she closed the door once we were all inside. She sat on her chair in front of her desk, while Bruce and I sat on the chairs next to her desk. She took one last look at the file, then started to talk to us. "So, the test results are back, it came back positive. You are related to each other; you are father and daughter." She told us with a gentle look on her face.

I felt my eyes widen in surprise; I was shocked. ^Bruce Wayne is my biological father.^ Then it started to sink in, ^BRUCE WAYNE IS MY BIOLOGICAL FATHER!!!^ After a few more moments of freaking out in my head, I slowly turned to face him. His face also showed his surprise, but it also held a look of happiness. He had finally found his long-lost daughter. Faster than he could react, I engulfed him in a hug. I felt as he quickly returned it. We held each other like we never wanted to let go. We just enjoyed the feeling of hugging each other.

We knew we had to let go, so we eventually released each other. *I am glad you are my biological father.* I signed to him. "I am glad you are my biological daughter." He told me. I smiled so widely it felt like my face broke, he smiled back. I then realised Dr. Thompkins was still there; I was so caught up in the moment I didn't realise until now. I turned so I was facing her. *Thank you, Dr. Thompkins. I am very grateful that you helped us. It's because of you that I have found my real family, and for that, I cannot thank you enough.* I signed to her. She smiled at me. "You are very welcome, Marinette." She told me. We all stood up and walked to the door. "Let me know if you need anything." Dr. Thompkins told us. We nodded our heads and walked out of the office, after thanking her again.

We walked back to the car and hopped in. "Marinette, if you are up for it, I would like to take you to the manor so we can tell the others? We don't have to tell them yet if you don't want to." He told me. *I am fine with telling the others now.* I told him. He nodded his head and drove to the manor.

When we pulled into the driveway of the manor, I started to get nervous. I started to fiddle with my hands. Bruce eventually noticed and started to calm my nerves. "It's okay Marinette. I am sure they will be happy about it." He told me, and it kind of worked but I was still nervous. "Marinette, calm down. Breathe with me. In and out. In and out." I matched his breathing and I slowly calmed down. "Good, let's go in now." We got out of the car and made our way to the front door.

Bruce knocked on the door, we waited a few seconds before it opened. "Master Bruce, you're back." An old man opened the door. He let us inside and we stood next to the door. He then noticed me. "Ah, and who might this be?" Bruce then answered him. "Alfred, this is Marinette. Marinette, this is our butler and old friend Alfred." He introduced us. "It is a pleasure to meet you, Miss Marinette." He told me. *It is good to meet you too, Alfred.* I signed to him. He seemed surprised by that, though I don't really blame him.

"Alfred, would you get the boys please?" Bruce asked him. "Of course, Master Bruce. Why don't you wait in the living room while I get the young masters." Alfred told us before walking off to get the boys. Bruce led me to the living room. ^This place is a maze.^ I thought to myself. We soon reached the living room, and I must say, it was amazing. The floor was wooden, but there was a big rug, there were leather couches, a wooden coffee table, a big flat screen TV, bookshelves, a piano, and so much more. Bruce took a seat on a single chair, so I sat down on one of the couches.

We sat in a comfortable silence for a few minutes before Alfred entered the room with the boys following behind him. "I have brought the young masters." Alfred told us. "Thank you, Alfred." Bruce thanked him. I looked at the boys, they were all in the room now and were standing near Bruce. They then noticed me, and they looked so surprised. "Cupcake" "Pixie" "Blueberry" "Angel" All of them said at once. I waved to them. "What are you doing here?" Dick asked. "That's actually what I wanted to talk to all of you about. You may want to sit down." Bruce told them, and they sat down, while Alfred just stood off to the side. "As it turns out, Marinette is my long-lost daughter." Bruce told them all. All of them just sat there shocked, before I heard multiple gasps. Eventually they shook themselves out of their stupor and started talking. "No way, Mari is our sister." The boys all said at once. "Young Mistress Marinette." Alfred said. Dick soon ran over to me and hugged me. His hug was soon followed by three others. Needless to say, I was surprised myself.

I then hugged them back. We then let go of the hug. "How long have you known?" Jason asked. *Not long, we only just found out earlier.* I signed in response to his question. He nodded his head, seemingly satisfied with the answer. "Why don't we spend the rest of the day bonding with each other. All of us can do it." Dick said. I nodded my head agreeing with his idea. "Alright, what should we do first?" Tim asked. "We could play video games." Jason said. "We could play some board games." Dick said. "We could paint something." Damian said. "Marinette, what do you think?" Bruce asked me. *We could watch a movie.* I signed with a shrug. "Great, let's do that then." Bruce said. "We can watch it in the cinema room." Tim said. *You have a cinema room?!?!?!* I signed to them, surprised. They just smiled and nodded. "I will go prepare the snacks." Alfred said.

We walked in the cinema room, it took a lot of twists and turns just to get here. It was huge, there was a giant projector screen, cinema seats all comfy and reclinable, there was lighting like a cinema, pretty much the whole room was like a cinema room. Which explains why it was called that. We all took seats in the middle row, which had the best view of the screen. "What movie should we watch?" Bruce asked. All of the boys then started to argue over which movie we should watch. *Moana.* I signed to them. We all finally agreed on Moana.

They put the movie on and the movie opening credits soon started playing. It was at this moment that Alfred walked in with snacks, there was popcorn, candy, and cookies. He had also brought some drinks, there was bottled water or soda. I grabbed some popcorn and a bottle of water, I then thanked Alfred, to which he nodded his head, as if to say you're welcome. He then left the room.

The beginning of the movie began to play. Everyone was quiet and payed attention. We were all really engrossed in the movie. Dick was singing along to the songs. When it came to the scene where Moana was talking to her grandma, Dick, Tim, and Jason were singing. "I AM MOANA!" All three of them sang at the same time. If I could talk, I would be singing along with them. The rest of the movie pretty much went the same. After the movie they all talked about how it was a good movie, then they looked at me for my opinion. *If I could talk, I would have been singing along as well.* I signed to them. Dick smiled at me, Damian groaned, Jason and Tim were silently agreeing in the background, either that or they were planning a prank on Damian. Now that I think about it, it was more likely the second option. Then Bruce was just standing there silently with a small smile on his face. *What should we do next?* I asked them. "We could play video games." Jason said. "We could get to know each other better." Dick said. *Alright, let's do that then.* I told them, through sign language.

We made our way back to the living room. We all sat down on a seat, Bruce sat on a single seat. Damian and Dick sat on another couch, Jason and Tim sat next to me, one on each side of me. "Alright, I will ask the first question." Bruce said. We all nodded our heads agreeing. "Who do you live with?" He asked me. *I live with my Uncle Jagged and Aunt Penny.* I told them. This seemed to confuse them a bit. "Didn't you live with parents?" Tim asked me. *I did, at one point.* I told him. "Why don't you live with your parents anymore?" Damian asked me. *They disowned me.* I told them. They stared at me in surprise and slight anger. "Why did they disown you?" Jason asked me. *Long story short, a girl from my class made up some lies about me bullying her, and they believed her. Not only that but almost everyone believed her, which is how my former enemy Chloe became one of my best friends.* I told them. They seemed angry at the first part, but slightly happy with the last part. "Do you have a boyfriend?" Dick asked. *Yes.* I told them. They seemed a bit upset and slightly protective, but that's probably just them being overprotective family.

They kept on asking me questions. Then Tim appeared to have remembered something. "How is your wound?" He asked me. The others quieted down very quickly. *It's okay, though I did accidentally reinjure myself and need to get my stitches replaced the other day.* I told them. "Can you show us?" Dick asked looking concerned. I lifted part of my shirt so they could see my wound. They all looked at my wound for a few seconds before looking at me concerned. "Are you okay?" Bruce asked me. *Yeah, I'm okay. I just get a little sore every so often. It's nothing I can't handle though.* I told them. "Ok, just let us know if you need anything." Bruce told me. I nodded my head, agreeing to let them know. I tugged my shirt back down.

"What are your favourite colours?" Jason asked me. *Either red, or pink, I like both colours.* I told him. "What are your hobbies and interests?" Tim asked me. *I love to design clothes, I also like baking and drawing.* I responded. "Do you like katanas?" Damian asked me. They all looked at him and deadpanned. I silently laughed at their interaction. *Yes, I do like katanas.* I told Damian. He smiled and nodded his head in approval. *Should we go play video games now?* I asked them. "YESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!" Dick, Tim, and Jason screamed at the same time. Bruce just smiled in amusement, Damian looked like he was living with a bunch of idiots and was done with it. I smiled at them all, it was a bit of a funny scene to witness.

Dick, Tim, and Jason all ran to the game room. Damian, Bruce, and I all walked to the game room. When we got there, I was surprised. ^I don't even know why I am surprised anymore.^ I thought to myself. The room had a bunch of couches facing the big flat screen TV, it also had some beanbags next to the couches, there was a big pool table, a soccer table, a ping pong table, there was also a desk set up with a gaming computer, the room also had a cabinet for the board games and a table to play them on, there was also a cabinet for the video games. I noticed connected to the TV there was a Nintendo Switch, a PS5, and the newest Xbox, along with some other gaming consoles.

I sat down on the couch and watched as the others did the same. *What video games do you have?* I asked them. "We have pretty much all of them. We have UMSIII, Minecraft, Zelda Breath of The Wild, Mario Cart, Donkey Kong, that is just naming a few. What game would you like to play?" Tim asked. *Can we play UMSIII?* I asked. ^If we do play UMSIII, they won't stand a chance.^ I thought to myself, smirking on the inside. "Sure, we can play UMSIII, Pixie." Jason told me. ^They're going to regret playing UMSIII with me.^ I thought to myself.

Tim set the game up and Jason got the controllers, giving me one and keeping the other for himself. The rest of us just sat and waited. "How about we take it in turns playing against Marinette?" Dick asked. We all agreed. The game then loaded up and we chose our characters, I chose the character I always use. Then the game started. I let Jason get the first hit, making him feel confident in himself. I then pretended like I was always missing, until he got me to low health, one more hit and I would be finished. Now was the time to bring my a-game, I slowly smirked. I launched attack, after attack, never once giving him the chance to hit me. All too soon it was over, and I had won. The TV then announced that I had won. Everyone else was shocked, I just sat there grinning. "How did you win? One more hit and I would have won." Jason complained. "That was awesome. I want to play now." Dick said. He then took Jason's place, and we started the next round.

This round went the same as the last round, it kept on going that way. One after the other I defeated them, Jason, Dick, Damian, and also surprisingly Bruce. Now it was all down to Tim. "Come on Tim, you got this." Dick said. "Come on Replacement, you can do this." Jason said. They all gave Tim words of encouragement. Then it started, the final match. I went first for this round, I hit him, and he hit me back. We kept on hitting each other, it was like we were evenly matched. Tim was giving his all, me however, I wasn't giving my all. Just when I was on low health, I stepped up my game and delivered the final blow. The TV announced my win. Everyone sat there shocked in silence, then all hell broke loose. "HOW DID YOU WIN!!!" Jason shouted. "YOU WON AGAINST ALL OF US!!!" Dick shouted in shock. They were all shouting, all the while Tim sat there, frozen in shock. After a while they all calmed down when they noticed Tim still hadn't said anything. "Tim, are you okay?" Bruce asked. Tim finally got out of his shocked frozen state. "How did you beat me? No one has ever beat me before." Tim told me. I smiled at him. *I entered a UMSIII tournament with someone else from my class, representing our school. We won the tournament.* I told them.

They all looked surprised about that information. "I wish you would have told us earlier." Jason said. I just shrugged my shoulders. They eventually got over it and we continued to play games. We were having so much fun we didn't even realise we had been playing for hours. Alfred then walked through the door. "Dinner is done, come eat." He told us all. We all then followed him downstairs to the dining room. We all took a seat and served ourselves. We then started eating our dinner.

When I had my first bite, I was pleasantly surprised. It was delicious. I think Bruce noticed my expression. "Alfred is a really good cook isn't he. " Bruce said. I looked at him. *That is an understatement, I've never tasted food this good.* I told him. "Thank you, Miss Marinette." Alfred said, surprising me, as I didn't know he was there. *Have you ever made macarons?* I asked him. "I can't say I have." He said. *We will have to make some together sometime.* I told him. "That sounds wonderful, Miss Marinette." He told me. I smiled at him and he smiled back. We then finished dinner with light conversation among us all. After dinner I knew I had to go back to the hotel.

"Would you like me to drive you back to the hotel, Miss Marinette." Alfred asked me. *Yes, please Alfred.* I told him. "Can I come?" Dick, Jason, Tim, and Damian all asked at once. "Yes, you may come." Alfred told them. "I will come as well." Bruce said. "Very well, Master Bruce." Alfred responded. We all then got into the limo, and we drove back to the hotel.

We soon arrived back at the hotel. I turned and looked at the others. *Thank you for today, I had fun.* I told them. They smiled back at me. "Your welcome Marinette, we loved having you over. You are welcome anytime." Bruce told me. *I loved spending time with you all too. I will see you all soon.* I told them. "Goodnight Marinette." Bruce said. *Goodnight guys.* I told them all. I then walked into the hotel and went to my room. When I opened the door, the only one up was Adrien. As soon as I closed the door Adrien looked at me. "How was your day?" He asked me. *It was good, as it turns out Bruce is my biological father. After we found out we spent the whole day bonding as a family.* I told him. He seemed surprised by the first part. "I'm glad you had a good day. Why don't you we go to bed now?" He asked me. *Yeah, we probably should. Goodnight, Adrien.* I told him, "Goodnight, Marinette." He told me. We then went to our separate rooms and we went to bed.

I fell asleep, looking forward to what was to come, now that I found my real family.

Feel free to let me know what you think of the story.

Should I add Cassandra, Stephanie, Barbara and Duke?
