Thanks for the reviews you guys are awesome!
In Someone Else's Shoes Ch 2.
Wally opened his sleepy eyes. He looked around it was pitch black; he couldn't tell where he was. He sat up. What happened?
Images of last night's training game ran through his head.
Um, right Megan, Robin, mental yelling, then we all collapsed as the energy hit us.
He felt he was in a bed, but not a medical bed, and not his bed either. This bed was way too big to be his. He felt the fabric of bed sheets, was this Egyptian cotton sheets? Cool so Batman made the beds more comfortable!
But it didn't explain where he was. Maybe in his room? Maybe in his room in the cave? Maybe uncle Barry's house?
He was about to shout out his uncle's name, when he thought he heard the door open. Wally stayed quiet and waited for the person to come closer. He heard the person's footsteps pass his bed, straight across the room. What the? Wally tensed.
Bright light flooded the room, coming from the apparently giant window! Where was he? And who was that old man in the room, definitely creepy.
"Ah, Master Richard I see you are already awake." The strange man said starting to pick up things around the room.
"Whah? Where? Who?" Alfred! Wally grabbed his pounding head, why did the name Alfred come into his head? And what was up with his voice? It sounded familiar but not his own.
The butler stopped picking up and stared at 'Dick'. "After the incident last night, you and few others lost consciousness. You are home now, sir." Alfred clarified seeing the confusion in his eyes.
"Uhh right," he was about to say this wasn't his home, that wasn't his name, his voice sounded weird, and that wait? Richard…. That name sounded familiar. Oh my god! Could it be… no no it couldn't.
Before he spoke again the word ALFRED screamed in his head, fine he'd use it. "Alfred, is my last name Grayson?" he asked trying to hide his amusement.
Alfred stared at him skeptically, opps he messed up the guy's name!
"Yes, Master Dick are you feeling alright?" Alfred said coming over to inspect him. Wally reached for a nearby shiny tray. He held it in front of his face.
Wally held what felt like the hugest grin ever possible, "Never better, Alfred. Never better!"

Dick groaned clutching his head, awaking. Ooh, I am so going to help Megan with controlling that mind of hers, whatever she did it knocked me out.
He opened his eyes, sitting up he looked around. Whoa, where was he? There was some morning light coming from a window. This room, was actually a regular medium room. He noticed there were empty rappers everywhere, mounds of clothes on the floor, and random posters on walls, and he couldn't even see what appeared to be a desk. Nope not his room, this looked like, like um KF's room.
"Why am I in Kid Flash's room?" he quietly asked himself.
Flash, no Barry Allen, zoomed up to him. Uncle! Screamed into Dick's head making him clutch it.
"You okay kiddo?" Barry asked slowly removing Dick's hands from his head.
"Yeah, just a small headache." That's when Dick realized his voice was wayyy off, it sounded like… KF's?
Dick quickly got up, and headed to the door he assumed was the restroom. What he didn't expect was that he arrived in a matter of seconds.
Dick took some deep breathes to calm his speedy body, this was new. The whole time Dick stared at his feet wondering why they burned. He slowly looked up into the mirror. Dick choked seeing his reflection.
He actually screamed, causing his 'uncle' to come in bursting open the door.
"What! What's wrong Wally?" a concerned Barry asked.
"I-I I'm n-not in m-my own…" he stuttered, unsure of how to handle this. Calm down Grayson, just calm down. Dick panted, he was so confused. It's okay you're just stuck in your best friend's body no big deal. Don't freak out.
So not professional but to hell with it! Dick yelled louder this time, freaking out Flash.
"Kid! Kid! Calm down! Shhh, it's okay. I know you're not home. You're at my house, don't freak out." Barry tried his hardest to calm him down, seeing as Wally was running around the room Barry grabbed him. He put a hand over his mouth to muffle his yells.
Barry stared into his nephew's scared, confused, and angered emerald eyes. Dick took some uneven breathes before finally calming down.
"Now what on earth got you so freaked out?" the tall blonde man asked looking directly into his eyes.
Dick gulped, "I'm not Wally."
Now it was Barry's turn to be confused. "What do you mean you're not Wally? Of course you are." Barry said looking him over. Dick looked unconvinced by his words.
"So let me guess, John's niece scrambled your brain?" he joked, seeing as 'Wally' only paled at this, he added "I think you did too much training yesterday." He added playfully ruffling his hair.
Dick froze, it had been so very long since an uncle did that to him. What if? What if I pretended to be Wally? I mean this has to be a weird dream, my dream!
Wait, it's not a dream I can feel everything!
But I can still be Wally… It hit Dick at that moment. Wally has a normal family!
Dick knew it was selfish for wanting Wally's family but… why not it's one in a life time experience. Dick surprisingly hugged Flash, "Uncle Barry!" he yelled. Flash sent him a skeptical look before hugging him back, chuckling. Kids?
"Common Iris baked pancakes for breakfast." Barry mentioned walking out of his room. Iris? Who's Iris? Aunt! The voice shouted in his head, okay it was starting to get on his nerves, but that voice told him where everything was as if he had been here his entire life. Strange.
Dick grabbed some of Wally's random clothes, and headed toward the kitchen, glad the little voice was directing him.
"Morning sleepy head. Someone wants to explain what that yelling was about?" Iris asked placing a big stack of pancakes in front of him as he sat down.
"Uncle B. scared me." 'Wally' said looking down at the food. That's a lot of food.
Iris lightly slapped Barry on the back of the head, "Hey! I did not!" he protested.
"Uh-huh. Wally you must of trained really hard, your uncle had to carry you home last night because you had fallen asleep." His 'aunt' recalled.
"Asleep? I was knocked unconscious." Dick corrected, his 'uncle' sent a small glare at him. Barry was desperately making movements to not say anything, but Dick thought it'd be funny if he saw him get in trouble.
"Mmm." Iris sent a wicked glare to her husband.
"No seconds for you Mr. Allen." she decided as punishment. Dick tried his best to suppress his laughter at Barry's expression.
"B-but honey! I'll starve!" Barry whined.
"You should have thought of that before you lied to me." She said joining them at the table. Dick smiled, it already had that family feeling.
After a couple of minutes of eating he noticed both his aunt and uncle were staring at him. Dick swallowed, "What?"
"You're eating, n-normal…" Iris squeaked freaked out.
"So? Don't I always eat like this?" he asked curious, opps maybe he messed up on personality issues.
"NO!" both said in union.
"I felt like eating normal this time." Dick said quickly thinking of a lie. They seemed to buy it, but still sent him worried glances.
"Kay kiddo you caused me enough trouble with the Mrs. let's get you to school before you convince her to make me sleep on the couch." Barry joked, after they finished eating.
"I better go too, don't want to be late for work." Iris said grabbing her things, she went to Wally and kissed her nephew on the forehead, "Bye. Glad you feel better." Dick blushed because that was a complete stranger, but Iris thought he blushed because teenagers hated that sort of attention feeling too mature.
"No kiss for me?" Barry asked hugging her in his arms. She squirmed out of his grasp, "Nope. Mad at you for lying."
"Aww I wasn't the one who made him lose consciousness!" Barry pleaded. Why is so hard to say no to these guys! "Oh fine," She gave him a quick peck on the check and left.
Dick inwardly sighed contently, an uncle and aunt.
[Back at Wayne Manor]
"Hurry Master Dick, you don't want to be late for school." Alfred said briefly walking out.
School? Cool! I get to live Dick's life! Awesomeness. 'Dick' jumped out of bed and ran to what looked like a closet.
But first he inspected the blue silk pajamas he had on. "Damn, a huge room, silk PJs, and butler? I'm probably in a mansion too, I'M RICH!" well technically his best friend was rich he was just selfishly using his body.
Wally opened the closet; he saw his best friend's clothes. Some of the suits were made by an expensive fabric, others were the newest clothes trend, and some were casual but most looked expensive. Clothes were boring, so he closed the closet and practically looked through every drawer.
He was awe struck when he found the video games! Sooo many beautiful, begging to be played video games!
Wally actually fell on his knees, he didn't know how long he stayed there gapping but when his stomach growled he got up. He was going to use his super speed to change, but… he had no powers! Darn a flaw in my best friend's body, oh well at least I still have awesome ninja skills!
Wally went back to the first closet, he looked through the clothes. He grimaced when he saw the school uniforms. How did he not see these? "Man, I must go to some rich uniform school, whatever at least I'M RICH!" he took the uniform and changed, not knowing that he was supposed to comb back his messy black hair.
Once Wally was ready, somehow he knew which way the kitchen was. The annoying voice that had yelled Alfred's name was directing him everywhere, he didn't mind at least this way he wouldn't get lost. He passed by lots of doors, he guessed he had a big family.
As he sped down the stairs excitedly he couldn't wait to see Dick's family. "Maybe I have a big brother! Or a big sister. Or a little brother. Or weird parents haha."Wally nervously reached for the big wooden doors, ready to greet his family, well Dick's family.
He paused as his hand touched the door, wait. What if he didn't act like Dick? Maybe they would figure out he was an imposter. Suddenly Wally wasn't so sure he wanted to enter, even though his stomach disagreed.
A hand was placed on his shoulder making him jump, he turned his head around… BRUCE WAYNE! What was the billionaire playboy doing in his house! And in his PJs?
"So I see you did awake. Why didn't you comb your hair back?" Bruce asked.
Wally's eyes remained widened; he didn't know what to say to him. "Sorry? Sir?" he said making it sound more like a question.
Bruce stared at him confused, but he brushed it off. "You don't need to apologize Dick, well…."
"What?"
"The door."
"What about it?"
"Aren't you going to open it?" he said with a hint of annoyance.
Wally stared at the door, then back at Mr. Wayne. "Um no…"
"And why not?" Bruce questioned.
"Cuz I don't want to, um what are you doing here, anyways?"
Bruce frowned and crossed his arms in front of his chest, "Ha-Ha very funny, just because I'm busy doesn't mean that sometimes I'll come down and eat breakfast with you."
"uhh right." Wally responded dumbly, not sure what he was talking about. GUARDIAN! The voice screamed, scaring Wally. He shook it off, and followed Bruce to the kitchen.
Wally took a seat at the very large table, he wondered where the rest of his family was. So of course he had to ask.
"Where is everybody else, sir?" Wally asked Bruce Wayne as he sat down across from him. Guardian! The voice yelled again. I heard you the first time! Wally mentally growled back to the voice. (Wally just doesn't get the obvious hints at times.)
"Who's everyone else?" Bruce asked skeptically.
Before Wally could explain, Alfred came in holding trays. 'Dick's' mouth watered upon seeing the food.
He gobbled it down as soon as Alfred set it on the table, this surprised both men.
"Master Bruce are you certain you fed the boy yesterday?" Alfred scolded the man.
"I did Alfred. Dick!" Bruce started a little irritated.
He stopped stuffing his mouth, "Yeawh?" he said mouth full.
"One, do not talk with your mouth stuffed. Two you have table manners I suggest you use them." Bruce said properly, then proceeded to fold a napkin all manner like.
"Sworry, sir." Wally muttered swallowing the food. He proceeded to eat like a slob, What the heck do I care what he thinks? He's in my house why? Where the hell is my family? Maybe Mr. Wayne is like… Guardian! The voice yelled once again snapping him out of his thoughts.
Fine, he's a guardian. Leave me alone stupid voice!
Oooh right totally forgot, Wally face-palmed upon remembering Bruce Wayne was Dick's adoptive dad. "Ugh I'm so stupid!"
Bruce and Alfred both sent him 'the look'. The look that clearly meant Why? What happened? Are you okay? All in one.
Wally noticed they were giving him the look so he tried to switch subjects. "Uh forget it, don't I have school or something?" Wow, I'm looking forward to school? That's a first.
"School!" Bruce yelled, rushing. "No time to comb your hair, let's get going!"
"As soon as I remember where I left my backpack we can leave…" Wally trailed off, thinking where his friend might have put it.
Bruce saw this as procrastinating and ran to his room to get it.
A/n: that's it for this chapter. Ha well their mentors have no clue yet, looks like they have they aren't telling them either, I mean Dick tried. Next chapter. I guess Wally gets to meet Barbara! And what will his reaction be when he sees Artemis! And what will Dick do when he runs into*shuting up now or I might say too much* I have it all planed, hehehe.
