Dick Finds A Jump Drive Part II--Love Bytes

Chapter 1

(Dick's Apartment—Four hours later)

Donna rolled onto her back on the rug in front of the couch and stared with glazed eyes at the ceiling of Dick's living room. She was breathing heavily, trying to catch her breath. They hadn't even made it into the bedroom.

"Wow!" Dick gasped beside her as he too struggled to regain normal breathing.

"Mighty Zeus."

"Holy Crap."

Donna turned her head and looked at her lover, giving him a half-smile. "Gee, Short-Pants, you really put your imagination to good use."

Dick returned her smile and said, "I aim to please."

Donna rolled and snuggled into his side. "I can't believe I'm here and we're together like this. You had no idea before I died that you felt this way."

Dick blushed slightly and said, "Well there was this time when Scarecrow fear-gassed me."

Donna sat up slightly and said, "What? When did this happen? And what did being gassed have to do with me?"

"It happened not too long after I moved to Bludhaven. The gas caused me to have nightmare visions and in the dreams I was married to you," Dick explained.

Donna narrowed her eyes at him. "Being married to me was your nightmare?!"

"No!" Dick said quickly. "No, being married to you was not the nightmare. In the dream we had a bad marriage and I was a crappy husband and you cheated on me with Roy. It was awful." A pained expression appeared in Dick's eyes and Donna's heart softened immediately as she leaned down to give him a gentle kiss.

"I would never do that, Dick. Why didn't you tell me about this before?" she questioned.

"Well at the time you were dating Kyle and I honestly didn't know what to think. I couldn't understand why I dreamed of being married to you and not Kory, Barbara or even Helena. Besides, seeing you with Roy in the dream scared me a little - you were my best girl friend and I didn't want to mess that up like I did with the others," Dick confessed.

"I understand. I've been doing the same thing for years. You've always been one of my closest friends and I contented myself with that. Besides Kory was also one of my best friends and I didn't want to come between the two of you ever. I still feel guilty because part of me was happy when you told Kory that you didn't love her and few months ago. I'm a terrible person but I will admit that I was jealous that you had sex with her again," Donna said as she looked down in shame.

"Like I was after you kissed Roy when we saved you from the Titans of Myth. I came on that mission as well and you gave all your love to Roy-boy," Dick growled at the bitter taste of jealousy that the memory brought.

"What I had with Roy was over a long time ago. I love you, and part of me is glad that it took us so long to get here. If we had gotten together when we were kids we probably would have messed it up." Donna leaned down again and kissed Dick until they were both breathless. Dick rolled her on her back as he became more aggressive, trying to ease years of pent-up desire.

Donna reached out and grabbed a sheet of paper when they came back up for air. "So were are we on this list?" she said with a sexy smirk that was completely foiled by her stomach growling.

Dick laughed and said, "I guess I better feed you before that monster comes out to play. But it looks like we are going to have to go out. I've been mostly living at the manor and there is no food here."

"I guess I skipped breakfast in my rage to come and beat your ass. Crap. I was supposed to spend the day with Diana and I just completely blew her off. I suck as a sister," Donna muttered as she reached for her yoga pants and racer back sports top.

Dick grabbed his jeans and started to put them on. "I'm sure she will understand and I am sure that she is still in shock at meeting her cyber doppelganger created by the original Batman. I can't believe Bruce did that. I mean, I know that they are friends but I always thought it was Selina Kyle that he wanted. Zatanna told me that Bruce confessed his love to Selina in the hospital right before he died," Dick said, still amazed by the strange turn of events.

"Who knows with those two. Diana hasn't been acting as if she is pining for Bruce either. She was courting Tom after all," Donna replied and then grimaced before adding, "I don't know where we can go - I didn't bother to put shoes on when I left Diana's apartment."

Dick laughed at her pout and pulled her close for another kiss. "I'm sure Alfred won't mind. Besides I'm sure he can magically find you whatever you need. So how about you fly us to the manor?"

She smiled at him and said, "Sounds like a plan, Short-Pants."

(Diana's apartment)

Virtual-Bruce smirked as he walked to the end of the desk. Like his original he stayed close to the shadows. The shadows were safe, the shadows concealed and comforted the lost child inside of him. The real world seemed so vibrant and clear. He began to make his way down the desk. He pulled a grappling hook from his belt and hooked it to the side of the desk. He lowered himself in complete silence, keeping to the mannerisms with which he was designed.

"I've tracked you this far, Princess, so where are you now?" he asked himself.

His attention was caught by a piece of paper that seemed to have been dropped by someone in a hurry. He walked to it and read part of Dick's fantasy about being with Donna. The smirk returned to his face, and he knew where the Amazons had gone. He climbed back to the top of the desk and wondered if it would be best to wait for them here. Then again, if his original knew how far he had evolved beyond his basic programming, he could be deleted. That thought left as soon as it appeared. The only way Dick would have found the jump drive that contained both himself and the princess was if his original was dead.

If my original is dead then how did Dick get to her? Barbara… the virtual-Bruce thought as his eyes narrowed.

For the next four hours, after making the connection that Barbara must've helped Dick open the secret files on the jump drive, virtual-Bruce waited for the original Diana or her virtual copy to return. While waiting, he'd decided to do some investigating on current events. His original had tried to keep a firewall up on the supercomputer, but usually he managed to peek at various news reports and current crime waves. However something had happened and both he and the princess had gone into a long slumber. The death of the original Bruce must have been the cause since they'd remained on the Wayne Tech jump drive instead of being uploaded into the supercomputer, which the real Bruce would have done periodically.

"A lot has been happening since I've been asleep," he muttered as he brought up another page to read on Diana's computer.

(The Batcave)

Both Diana and her virtual-self had talked about Bruce for the past few hours. Diana was surprised to know that Bruce had actually installed virtual reality interface matrix, which allowed him to interact more physically with her virtual self. Her mini smiled sheepishly when Diana had asked what they had done while he was in there with her.

"Seriously what was he like? I wonder if it was like my dreams in the Transconsciousness Articulator?" Diana asked her mini.

"From what I can surmise from the information that Bruce has collected on J'onn's machine, I sure is was similar to an extent. It felt wonderful, but I wanted to really 'feel' him the way you humans do, skin on skin. What I felt was his digital image, but I would have given anything to be you and really be in the Cave with him," she said, looking longingly at the small sleeping area Bruce kept in the cave for the times he didn't feel like crawling up into the manor.

"He was gentle and passionate and I felt as though he truly loved me - though part of me knew I was a substitute for you. But most often he came to me when he was wounded and uneasy and needed the comfort that only you could provide. Once he fell asleep inside the virtual reality matrix and I witnessed the dream of his parents. I wanted to reach out and stop the mugger from killing them, but they were like shadows. So I contented myself with holding him and trying to comfort him. It is what you would have done, right?" AI-Diana questioned her real self. At Diana's nod she continued, "When he woke up he tried to push me away. That's something that he always seems to do when he really starts to love somebody. I realized then that he loved me because he loved you. I was too like you, and for a moment he feared losing me like everyone else he had lost," Diana's doppelganger said as tiny pixilated tears formed in the corners of her eyes.

Diana rested her chin on her knees and fought back more tears as she watched her digital sister cry over the man they'd both loved. She should be jealous. Maybe she should even be angry, as Bruce had chosen to make a copy of her instead of trying to have a real relationship with her. But she wasn't; she understood Bruce's fear because she had felt it herself.

Her experiences in the Transconsciousness Articulator had felt very real and being married to Bruce had been so incredible. But watching him die had been more painful than she could have ever believed. Whatever time they had together was never going to be enough because she was eventually going to live forever without him. That had scared her into backing off and when he seemed to want the same thing she convinced herself it was for the best.

Then all those tragic events had happened that led her to killing Max Lord. She just couldn't let Kal be controlled by that monster. She just couldn't let him kill Bruce. Their friendship had been nearly lost and it had taken a year and a lot of soul searching for them to recover. They had and moved on with their lives - going in separate directions but always being there for one another.

She'd courted Tom because she liked him, she was lonely - and she knew that his death would hurt but would not leave her forever longing to see him again. Then Bruce had died and she didn't even have time to mourn because everything in her life was falling apart. It took the Blackest Night and nearly destroying everything she loved to realize the truth in her heart. She loved Bruce. And he was gone and she was going to miss him forever. She felt the wetness on her cheeks and the tears fell again. She looked at her crying sister and felt the kinship of mutual love lost.

"Diana, duck!" her doppelganger yelled and Diana immediately dropped to a crouching position by the chair. The fist aimed at her head missed but her assailant quickly recovered.

"What are you doing in my father's chair or even in my father's cave? You trespassing bitch!" he screamed as Diana stood up. Before she could respond he flew at her with an aerial side kick. Diana's quick reflexes took over and she grabbed his foot throwing him into the air where he flailed around a second before she caught him under his arms and held him at arm's length away from her.

She looked into his malevolent eyes and said in her most commanding voice, "Cease, Damian."

He looked shocked for a moment at the use of his name but brought his foot up and kicked her in the stomach. Diana barely registered the blow but Damian screamed in pain.

"Argh! I think you broke my foot."

"That will teach you to go around kicking strangers who have done you no harm," Diana said sternly.

Before either of them could say anything more they heard Alfred call out as he descended the stairs, "Master Damien your breakfast is ready and-" He stopped speaking for a moment as he noticed the Amazon princess holding Damien a foot off the ground.

"Your Highness, what are you doing here?" he asked in surprise.

Before Diana could say anything a voice from the computer spoke, "I invited her here."

Both Alfred and Damian stared at the digital replica of Diana with surprise and bewilderment.
