Batman approached Robin a few seconds later.

"Come, Robin. We must discuss how we'll keep all this a secret" he said.

"But... but I can't. I can't worry poor Aunt Harriet" said Robin.

"But you must. The kids and I have been discussing it. How are you feeling now?" said Batman.

"I feel so... I dunno. My tummy has been getting a little queasier the last few seconds" said Robin.

"Your pregnancy is progressing. The Penguin must have made it a difficult one" said Batman.

"Gosh, Batman, I sure hope not. I feel like... now that I know I'm pregnant, it's kicking in" said Robin.

"Maybe so. Now come. We must discuss a plan to make sure no one knows about this" said Batman.

Robin followed him to Wayne Manor and got into his Dick Grayson identity while Batman was Bruce Wayne again.

"Now. How will we make sure Dick's pregnancy is a secret?" said Bruce.

"Well, the Penguin will be expecting us to do Warrior things" said Sam.

"What wouldn't he expect? The four of those guys know everything" said Charles Wallace.

"It's true. They do. The Penguin once used a video surveillance system to track down me and Batman" said Dick.

Then Calvin got an idea.

"I got something. Mind you, we'll be really close to the most recent crime scene. And it'll be dangerous. VERY dangerous" he said.

"What, Cal?" said Charles Wallace.

"We take Dick back to Wigglehouse. He stays there with us for a while. And if anything happens, we live right near Meg" said Calvin.

"That is a good idea, Calvin, but what if someone comes on the street and sees Dick pregnant when they know Robin is?" said Bruce.

"Then we'll avoid that. Only let him on the streets as Robin" said Calvin.

"Guys, I don't know if I can handle living away from my aunt for nine months" said Dick.

"Come on, Dick. We've lived away from our relatives for years" said Charles Wallace.

"But everyone knows who you are. If I'm gone for too long, Aunt Harriet will suspect something" said Dick.

"Then... you stay here in Wayne Manor while you're skinny" said Sam.

"I like that idea, Sam" said Bruce.

"What do you say, Dick?" said Calvin.

"I say... agreed. I just hope it works out" said Dick.

"Hey. Have we ever let you down? Huh? Have we? Have we? Have we?" Sam joked tickling Dick's arm.

Dick laughed then said "No".

"It will be fine, Master Dick. When you are living with these three, I will make sure your aunt does not worry" said Alfred.

"Thanks a lot, Alfred" said Dick.

"Now there's nothing to do but wait" said Sam.

"Wait?" said Dick.

"Yeah. Wait till you're no longer skinny. Then you come home with us" said Sam.

"Oh yeah" Dick sighed.
