Batfamily secrets

Intro

Ok so the ages differ a bit in this story. Bruce's parents die when he's 9, he becomes batman at 21, and the triplets are born when he's 22. I changed the timeline a bit so that his age fits a little better with the kids being is biological kids and not adopted. Also since Terry is a mute, bold will be when he's signing. Of course the quotes at the end will still been in bold but I'm pretty sure you can figure ok what the quotes are and when Terry is talking...or signing I guess. One more thing the birthday months are different in this too. I haven't picked months yet but I will soon. Ok here we go

Bruce's pov:
I was walking to the kitchen when I heard screaming. I knew instantly it was Jason and Tim. I couldn't tell what they were arguing about until I was outside the kitchen door.

"JASON!!!!! THAT IS MY FORK!!" I heard Tim yell. Please don't be arguing over a fork. I silently wished.

"YES IT IS I GRABBED IT!!!!" Jason yelled back. I heard laughing from my other 6 kids.

"Why? Why eight kids? Why?" I muttered as I walked in the kitchen and saw Jason and Tim each had one hand on a fork while Dick was passing around a popcorn bowl.

"Jason, Tim just get new forks. Dick it's 9 in the morning. That means breakfast not popcorn." I said as I walked to my place at the table to see an empty plate next to coffee and the paper.

"But popcorn... and I mean come on!! They were fighting over a FORK!!! I needed popcorn for that" Dick responded as he teleported next to Jason and dumbed the rest of the bowl on Jason's head.

"DICK!!! YOU JACKA... I mean jerk" Jason paused before picking popcorn out of this hair looking at it and eating it

"No using powers at the table" I mumbled as I browsed through the paper

"Really boys? Jason that disgusting" Barbara said walking into the kitchen and sitting next to Jason.

"Why? Why me?" I said watching Jason continuing to eat the hair popcorn and occasionally throwing some at Tim across the table.

"Jason I WILL KILL you if you throw one more piece of popcorn at me" Tim started raising his voice. I sighed but didn't say anything knowing that this every day occurrence couldn't be stopped. I started to slip into a old memory as Alfred brought me my breakfast.

Flashback (No ones pov:)
Bruce Wayne was sitting on a park bench. He was around 10 years old. The tragic death of his parents was still on the news even though there were no leads and it had been months since their deaths. Oddly there was no paparazzi around, and because it was the middle of winter there were no kids at the park. A man silently walked over to Bruce and sat down next to him. He didn't say anything for a few minutes and neither did Bruce.
But after a couple of minutes he finally said something.

"Hello Bruce, how are you today?" He asked calmly

"I'm fine. Who are you?" Bruce asked

"Oh I'm no one that important. Unlike you of course" he replied

"Why am I important" Bruce asked knowing the answer. He was Bruce Wayne destined to run Wayne enterprises

"Well your Bruce Wayne. Someday you will make a big difference in this world. Not only through your family's company but your children as well." The man said standing up.

"Wait what?" Bruce asked confused

"Oh you will understand one day.
But remember your children are the key to everything. Bye now" The man said as he walked away
Bruce went to go after him but Alfred grabbed his hand and told him it was time to go. When he looked back the man was gone.

End of flashback

Bruce's pov:
I zoned back in when Dick slammed his hand on the table
In front of me. Dick sits in the seat next to me on the left, then Jason, followed by Barbara and lastly Damian. On the right side next to me is Tim then Cassie, Steph, and Terry. I don't know why they sit in that order but they do. I don't asked questions anymore.

"Wow dad you were totally in a different place right there" Barbara said once the laughing died down.

"Yeah, What were you thinking about?" Dick asked a little concerned.

"Nothing, finish your breakfast if your late to your last day of school the school will not be happy. You guys have missed or have been late way too many times this year." I said getting up to go get ready for work.

"Your a horrible liar" Tim said picking popcorn out of his hair and flicking it at Cassie.

"No I'm not. Finish your breakfast" I said. Then I caught Dick's eyes. He had a confused look on his face. When he noticed me staring at him he looked away and continued to eat his breakfast.

"Stay out of my head Dick." I paused before smiling and saying "your getting better, if you weren't staring I wouldn't have noticed. I didn't even notice you in my head" Dick started laughing but stopped at my look.

"Umm yeah I know." He said avoiding eye contact

"What?" He didn't say anything so I walked up to him and asked again "what do you mean Dick?" I said a bit more forcefully

"I've been able to get in your head without you noticing for about a year now." He said finally making eye contact. Dick has been able to get into other people's heads without them noticing for years. Since he turned 7, but he could never do it to me without me noticing. No one knew why but he just couldn't.

"But last month you were in my head and I could tell" I said as I started to narrow my eyes at him.

"Yeah... as you know I can control whether people notice or not. Last year I finally figured out how to get into your head without you noticing." He said then added an innocent smile at the end.

"I can't tell if I'm mad that you didn't tell me or impressed that you keep it a secret this long." I said shaking my head and walking out of the kitchen. The triplets just turned 12 a few months. They each developed their powers further but I wasn't aware Dick developed his powers a year ago. The kids usually get further developed powers every so often.

"Damm kids" I mumbled as I reached my room

And that's the end of that chapter. Well the next chapter will be up.... when it's up. Sorry I suck at updating. But I will update as soon as possible. Also my other book about the batfamily will be having a second book to continue on that version of the batfamily.
