Reasons to Join the Batclan.
"Hey Wally," Dick said as he walked into Wally room in the mountain and found him looking at a computer. "What are you doing?"
"Oh, hey Dick," Wally answered as he looked up, "Just looking at one of those 'Reasons to Join the Dark Side' lists."
"Oooh! Read it!" Dick said excitedly. He sat down next to Wally on his bed.
Wally gave his little brother a weird look but complied. "We've got cookies."
"Check," Dick said quietly from beside him.
"You get a sweet, dark cape that covers your whole body."
"Check."
"You get a really cool, crazy laugh."
Dick did his 'Robin Cackle' and then said, "Check."
"You get to walk out of shadows mysteriously and freak out the good guys."
"Check."
"We get to wear black. Everything looks better and more form-fitting when it's black."
"Check."
"One word: UNDERLINGS! Someone to do things for you when you're too lazy to do them yourself."
"I may get my cookie privileges revoked for saying this but, check."
"Money, Money, Money: Ever notice that we are usually much richer than the good guys?"
"Check!"
"WORLD DOMINATION! The BEST reason!"
Dick stayed silent.
"What, no comment from the peanut gallery?" Wally asked him.
"Do me and Batman have world domination?" Dick asked thoughtfully.
Wally opened his mouth to answer, but realized he didn't know. "Hmmm." After a moment of them both in deep thought Wally said, "Well, if you count Batman being one of the founders of the Justice League as dominating the world, then yes, yes you do have world domination."
"Yes!" Dick cheered, "Bats and I are officially on the dark side!"
Later, in the Batcave...
Batman zetaed home after a meeting at the Watch Tower. "Robin?" he called.
The Imperial March from Star Wars began playing as he walked deeper into the cave.
"Robin, what are you doing?"
All Batman got as a response was the Robin Cackle.
"Robin..." Batman growled out. Robin stepped out from the shadows; his cape covering his whole body. Batman raised an eyebrow.
"Welcome to the Dark Side," Robin said in a creepy voice.
"What are you talking about?"
Robin snapped out of it and smiled at his father. "Wally read off this list of all the perks to being on the Dark Side," he explained, "and we have all of them so we are, officially, on the Dark Side."
"And how does Alfred feel about being called an underling?" Batman asked with a smirk.
Robin's smile fell. "Don't tell him that! It's a very loose term. A better one would be 'assistant'!"
"Oh would it now?"
"Yes!"
Batman smiled and Robin seemed relieved. They both went to change out of their costumes when Batman asked his final question.
"And how exactly do we have world domination?"
"Easy," Robin replied with a laugh, "we're just that awesome."
Just something I've had on my mind for a while so I decided to write it. Hope you enjoyed it! :D
