When Mariah stepped through the doorway of Wayne Manor she was greeted with hugs and crying. Everyone was happy but Mariah, she knew she was about to be heavily watched. Plus she had to go meet with Roy a couple times a week and go to meetings. She wasn't too thrilled.

She was pulled out of thought when Damian rushed into her arms crying. An unexpected sight that caught her off guard. She didn't see him in the hospital and didn't expect to see him or Tim today. "You're okay." Damian cried out.

"I'm okay Dami," Mariah reassured.

"No you aren't" Jason replied from the doorway

"Fuck off." Mariah scratched at her arms, feeling nauseous as fuck. Dick looked at her worried for her well-being.

"You are meeting with Roy at two, you guys are going to a meeting together." Jason informed Mariah, she clenched her jaw trying to not cause a scene in front of everybody. Instead she turned away and went to her room.

When Mariah arrived in her room she immediately knew it's been searched, probably Jason and Roy's doing. They are the only ones who know addicts' hiding spots. I'm going to have to be more creative, she thought. A knock on her door broke her out of her thoughts.

"Can I come in?" Jason asked

"You are going to decide whether I say yes or no" Mariah replied as Jason walked in. "You wrecked my room"

"I didn't want to watch another family member die by drugs" Jason said looking down and not at Mariah.

"Well Catharine wasn't really your mother, now was she?" Mariah questioned.

Jason clenched his jaw before speaking, "I know you're angry but you have no right to bring up my parents."

"And you have no right to go through my shit!" Mariah yelled at Jason.

"You're right, in every other circumstance I don't but right now I do" Jason stated firmly, "I came to get you because Roy will be here soon, so get fucking ready" Jason left slamming her bedroom door shut. Mariah turned around and punched the wall letting her frustration out before getting ready to go to the meeting with Roy.
