Bat-Family Oneshots

Forgotten

there were more then a few things the big bad bat of Gotham prided himself on. One of these things were his ability to remember even the smallest of details, he could remember whole books word for word. He definatly wasnt the type of person who had to leave notes around for himself. So how he had forgotten about a very crutial detail about his day was beypnd him or atleast that was what he said but his kids had a different theory and that was it was becasue his trusted butler and friend Alfred was on holiday. 

Batmans days seemed to manage to blend together, with the sheer ammount of paper work he had to fill out. Everyone seemed to think that the Justie League some how manged to magically run its self, no on knew the ammount of paper work that had to be filled out in order to keep all there names out of the dirt. Not to mention all the repair fees, the god damn meta humans caused. 

And unfortunatly today was no different, but as he walked into the meeting with the 7 founders that he was holding he couldnt help but feel as though he had forgotten somthing, after a few miniutes of thinking he desided to brush it off, after all if he couldnt remember it was probibly unimportant. After all he was the god damn batman it wasn't possible for him to forget anything. So he caried on his way wanting to end this meeting as quickly as possible.

***********************************************************************************************

It was a couple of hours later when Robbin and Red Hood enter the strangly quiet mountain. "Whats going on? Why is t so quiet?" Hood desided to ask after a couple of miniutes. Gar the young shapeshifter approached them "Batman's still got the Big guys in a meeting, he told us he didnt want to be disturbed and if we did we would be in big trouble, Im guessing its really important" Beast Boy stepped back slightly when he noticed the worry looks the two birds were shooting at eachother. 

"Batman's still here? Where is Nightwing" Robin asked seriously, the green boy shrugged "Not here, haven't  seen him since last week" The boys paled, and as if planned Robins phone began to ring. He slowly pulled it from his pocket, Both of the brothers stared at it. 

"You answer it" Robin said after catching sight of the caller ID that said Dick Grayson. "No way, he's going to be beyond pissed. Plus its your phone" Hood replied quickly shaking his head. "Rock, Paper, Scissors?" robin suggsted, they went through a quick game that Robin lost. He gulped, answered his phone and slowly brought it to his ear. In a small voice he said "'Wing?" he quickly pulled it away from his ear and everyone else paused to look at him as they heard Nightwing screaming on the other end.

"Get that moron we call a father on the phone NOW!!!" Nightwing shouted, Robin was going to argue but desided against it when he saw Red Hood shaking his head and pointing toward the wooden double doors the JL were behind.

"Ill go get him" the young bird muttered as he walked towards the door, after taking several deep breaths he knocked.

After a few seconds the gruff monotoned voice of his mentor sounded from the otherside "Enter". Robin noticed Batmans face fall to a frown when he saw his second youngest walk in. "Robin, you know not to interupt during one of our meetings" the Bird in question looked sheepish.

"Uh...Nightwings on the phone, you might want to take this" Robin said, his mentor had look of confusion but tapped a button on the computer and put the phone on speaker. Robin was going to stop and tell him to take it in private but considering that Nightwings name didnt help jog his fathers memory, Robin desided he deserved what he got. 

"Nighwing?" 

"YOU BASTARD" To say the room was shcked would definatly be an understatment. Surprisingly or prehaps unsurprisingly many of the members including the yoong bird found the floor to be very instresting. 

"Nightwing?" the bat repeated

"YOU FORGOT ME" The league noticed the exact moment when the relisation hit the big black bat. You see the oldest wayne had gone into hospital to get his appendix removed after a week of being in sevear pain which just added to the bats stres levels. How had he forgotten, Not to sure to be honest?

"Oh, Wing i'm sorry, Don't worry ill be there in no time" There was a huff on the otherside of the phone. "Don't bother i've discharged myself" the angry teen stated. Dick was currently desiding were to go. You see due to the fame he couldnt take the bus without being swarmed, taxis were as sketchy as fuck at the best of times plus he didn't have money, He could very well walk back to the manor but he was ten miniutes away from a zeta tube. "Im coming to the mountain its closer, then im going back to the manor to get my stuff and Robin then we are heading back to Haven" and with that the call disconnetected. 

Batman paled not that anyone but Robin noticed. The leaguers on the other hand looked angry "What does he mean? Dischrged himself" Canary asked. "He got his appendix removed this morning i was supposed to pick him up" The teams gaze turned colder as Arrow asked "What time" 

"2"

the group of adults turned to the clock and saw that it was already 8. "Not so asterous dad, not asterous at all" Robin said smuggly at his fathers predicament. the bat turned his glare on his son and said "Call Robin tell him to get over here" That confused the leaguers but the bird noded and slaughntered out he room leaving the bat to be killed with questons. 

Just as robin ended his call the computerised voice said 

"Recognising Nightwing-B01"

The angry older teen stormed out of the beam.

"Where is he im going to kill him!" Robin and Red Hood gently grabbed there brother and dragged him over to the sofa. "Nightwing chill out, your going to rip you stitches" Red Hood said once they finally got him seated. 

Nightwing seemed to calm a bit well that was until the Bat in queston entered the room. Nightwing was going to get up and go towards him, but was pushed to the couch by his siblings, he struggled angrily as Batman said "Nightwing i can explain" the teen was about to shout an insult when suddently a younger boy walked into the room wearing a more traditional robin suit. When the older boy caught sight of him he calmed down and Red Robin and Red hood slowly let him go. 

The new Robin glared at his father but turned his gaze towards his guardian who was walking towards him. Just as they thought nightwing was going to wallk past the bat he turned and punched the bird let out a pained shout. 

"Wing!" The young hero was bent over with his hand firmly pressed to his side, his brothers quickly got to his side and pulled him further away from the bat who was still clearly in shock from the punch. 

"6 hours B. You left me in recvery for 6 hours! and no one could get hold of you because you were HERE!" He said through heavy slightly laboured breathing as he paled considerably. 

Red Hood who was checking over his brothers scar "Yeah and now you've got to go back! You've pulled a couple stitches" 

To say the team was confused over the whole episode didnt even explain it, why was Nightwing in hospital, why did he punch his father figure and who was this new kid. But after Robin proising to tell them later they kept quiet. 

"Dont be over drammatic, Red Hood we can just redo them here" the kid said with crossed arms. Batman held out a hand to help his eldest son to the Med bay. But Nightwing slapped his hand away and growled out "Dont, touch me. Red Robin can you help me. Im to shaky to do it myself" to the teams surprise there Robin nodded and helped his brother walk to the Medbay, leaving the bat with two pissed looking kids.

The yougest of the two crossed his arms once again and said "Really father?" the dark night looked at the floor "I didn't mean to, i just forgot" Red hood just scoffed "Thats no excuse B and you know it" The bat looked up again and laid his eyes back on the youngest "Are you and Wing really going to go back to Haven?" the youngest nodded and spat disaprovingly "If that is what he wishes the yes" Before he could put in a word he was cut off but Hood"Come on Robin, lets go and check on Nightwing" and with that they left an ashamed looking bat behind along with the deadly glares he was recieving from his team mates.
