Quarantined Robins

Personality Switch as Payback (Part 2)

Summary: Continuing from the last chapter, Bruce feels himself getting more confused with the events happening and hopes he isn't going insane

Bruce could tell something was going on. All 4 boys had acted strange during breakfast and not like their usual selves. Were they getting back at him for grounding them all due to those live videos they posted? But if that were the case then why was Alfred not affected by their behavior?

Not getting any answers as to what the boys were up to, Bruce made his way over towards the Bat Cave, where he saw each of the boys in their uniforms.... However, they were each wearing the wrong uniforms. Dick was wearing a version of Damian's Robin suit, Jason wore a version of Dick's Nightwing suit, Tim wore Jason's red hood outfit without the helmet and Damian wore Tim's Red Robin suit. Each of the suits were even their size!

Now Bruce was sure he was seeing things... no way would Damian actually wear the Red Robin uniform willingly or would Jason allow Tim to use his leather jacket without a fight

"You sure took your time old man" Tim said with a smirk that Jason usual wore on his face

"He probably was just held up by the board, Tim" Damian said from his spot at the Bat Computer. Bruce noticed he was looking at the various cases he had seen Tim looking at a few days ago... Wait, did Damian just call Tim by his actual name while being civil with him!

'It's official this quarantine has driven either myself mad to the point that I think I've been sent to the Twilight Zone or I'm in a terrible nightmare where each of my sons has been swapped with one another... each sounds ridiculous and also frightening if one of them is true' Bruce thought with a grim expression

"Are you alright, Bruce? You seem as if you just saw a ghost" Jason asked him with worry clear in his tone, while Dick didn't say anything but gave Bruce an unamused face at seeing him late for training

Bruce felt like screaming, which was entirely out of character for him. Instead he looked at each of them and asked "Why are each of you wearing each other's outfits and how on earth do they fit! Dick you shouldn't even be able to fit into the current Robin suit and Damian that Red Robin suit should be to big for you"

Dick stood up from his spot and crossed his arms "Bruce, I am wearing my regular uniform"

Damian didn't turn around from the computer, but still answered the question directed towards him "Father, you know that I've been Red Robin for a long time now"

"Are we going to start training or not? We already lost very valuable time of me proving why I am the superior Robin" Dick said with a tone Damian usually uses when wanting to show why he is the best

"Keep telling yourself that Dick. I could beat you at your game without breaking a sweat" Tim said nodding his head towards the sword that Bruce just noticed was in Dick's hands... since when does Dick use a sword of all things!

"Tt even Todd, who's been killed is a better adversary than you could ever be Drake" Dick replied with narrowed eyes and sword in hand ready to attack

"Bring it on Grayson" Tim threaten back with a knife suddenly in his hand... knife! Nothing makes sense anymore!

"As much as I would love to see who would win against you both, I'm trying to organize these files into their correct spot and you two arguing isn't helping" Damian commented irritated

"Tt clearly you wouldn't prove to be a challenge anyway Wayne" Dick said with a tone Bruce had heard Damian use on Tim plenty of times

"Oh then why is it I was able to beat you in our last fight? You weren't going soft were you?" Damian said in a mockingly voice

"Let's not start a fight you guys. We need to all stay calm and get onto training before Bruce chooses one of us to go on patrol with him" Jason said breaking up a fight before it could begin

Poor Bruce was clearly not in the right state of mind to deal with this sort of situation as he walked over to a chair. Jason saw this and turned towards the second youngest bat "Timmy, pass me that syringe on that counter beside you"

"You could easily walk here yourself. Besides the old man is probably tired and is being to much of a drama queen" Tim lazily told his older brother, but still did as told and got the cylindrical tube anyway

"Drama queen or not, I still believe it best to check him out for any exposure to toxins" Jason worryingly said as he walked over to Bruce, who surprisingly didn't feel like putting up much of a fight, and let Jason take a blood sample

"Damian mind running a scan on this sample for any signs of neurotoxins?" asked the second Robin once he got the sample

"Hook it up onto the computer and I'll do it from here" was Damian's response as Jason nodded and hooked the blood sample onto the bat computer

After a while of waiting the results came back "So, is the old man infected with any sort of toxin or is he being a drama queen like I said?" Tim said with an unamused tone as Bruce turned around and saw him and Dick in a sword fight... and they were fighting in Jason and Damian's fighting styles!

"Don't you dare talk to Bruce that way Drake! As if you're one to talk in being what you call a drama queen. Just last week you were running around trying to find out the person who could've taken all of your stupid jackets when it was in fact you who gave them to Pennyworth the day before" Dick angrily told Tim as he narrowed his eyes at Dick

If Bruce recalled correctly, it was Jason who was in fact running hysterically around the manor, demanding someone confess to stealing all his jackets... only to find out that he had given them to Alfred after the butler ordered Jason to hand them over for a wash

"Yes, father is all checked out and in perfect condition" Damian interrupted before a fight could break lose

"Good. Then we can finally get on with training like we should have done the moment the old man came down" Tim dryly stated

Bruce sighed as he got up from the chair and walked over to the door as he turned towards the four "I'm going to go change" he said out loud and then in a low voice added "And hopefully getting away for awhile will help me regain some level of sanity"

Author Note: Sorry for the long wait for the next part of the Quarantined Robins story... just had some computer problems. Anyway I'm back and as you see in this chapter, Bruce is starting to think he's either going crazy or is in the Twilight Zone. I wanted to make it so that Bruce wouldn't be prepared for something like this, cause who is actually prepared for their sons to confuse them the way the Robins are doing so to Bruce. If you feel any of them was out of character or have any ideas for how to continue than feel free to let me know :)
