ANOTHER WORLD: Scarecrow & Alternate Universes

A Whole New World

Dick found himself in a strange room. He was lying on a bed, as he slowly sat up, Dick realized that he was in the Mountain. He stood up and noticed that he was much taller than he was just a little while ago. "Hello?" he called out softly. No one answered for a bit, but then he heard a knock on the door. "Uh, who is it?" Dick asked hesitantly. 

"Conner, I heard you in the living room," the clone answered.

"You can come in," Dick told him. Conner entered and saw the worried and unsure look on his leader's face. 

"Are you OK?" Conner asked.

"I... I'm fine," Dick replied slowly and softly. Conner raised an eyebrow but left anyways. Dick realized Conner was completely comfortable with his height. Dick sighed, and rubbed his temples in an effort to remember what happened. He couldn't though. He tried so very hard but he just couldn't. 

Dick growled in anger, a habit he had picked up from Damian, and looked in the room's closet. In it he saw Nightwing suits. Dick gasped loudly. Why was Terry's suits in his closet!?!? Dick shook his head and just put one on. He had to admit it was a nice fit. 

Dick put on a domino mask and left the room. He knew the Mountain inside and out, so it wasn't hard to get to the kitchen. A tall man and broad man with dark skin, brown eyes, and brown hair was making a pot of coffee. He noticed Nightwing's appearance and smiled. 

"Hey 'Wing," the man greeted. Dick winced on the inside, that wasn't right name.. 

"Hi," Dick replied with a smile. 

Then a lady entered, she was thin, lithe had short brown hair, dark skin, and dark brown eyes. "Good morning Mal, good morning Nightwing," she said as she walked in. 

"Mornin' beautiful," the man named Mal said to her as she kissed him on the cheek. Dick knew that name... Mal. Wasn't he one of Conner and Megan's school friends?? 

Nightwing sat at the table and buried his face in his hands as he tried recollect his thoughts. What was the last thing he had been doing before he woke up? He remembered a mission from Batman, Wally making a sarcastic comment, Kaldur telling them to be careful, and.... and then a man with a mask. A mask of a potato sa- 

"Are you OK?" he heard someone ask. Nightwing looked up, his face full of anger. He had it right on the tip of his tongue and someone just HAD to interrupt his thoughts! He saw M'gann. 

His eyes narrowed at how much she had changed. "Megan..." he murmured. He stood up and walked away. He bumped into someone as he walked off. The someone was small and fragile, and he knew whom it was immediately. 

He hadn't seen many pictures of Tim when he was Robin, but he knew what he looked like. Dick gasped and looked down, "T-Tim-m-m..." Dick stuttered. 

Tim looked up at Nightwing with a look of confusion. "Yeah?" the current Robin asked. 

Dick backed away surprise and fear all over his face. Nightwing ran to his bedroom, slammed the door shut, leaned against the wall, and took deep gulps of air. 

Tim.....  What happened to Tim?! Not just Tim... Megan.... and that Mal guy and his girlfriend... It was so confusing. Dick found himself sobbing. Tears of confusion and pain flowed down his face. What happened to his family....?
