Ch.3

Again Nightwing felt the stares of the team engulf him. Not knowing what to do he asked Robin, "How much do you wanna bet that I can get Superman to agree to train Superboy by tomorrow morning?"

Robin looked at him appraisingly before stating, "If Superboy is not on the cover of the Daily Planet, I will be nice to the Demon Brat for a week."

The only reply was, "Make it two weeks of my choosing and you have a deal." Robin squinted and then nodded.

The team once again was left confused. Who was the Demon Brat and why wasn't Robin nice to him or her? Also, how could Nightwing succeed in getting Superman to acknowledge Superboy when even Batman failed?

Nightwing seemed to take no notice of their problems but instead whipped out a cell phone that had blue finger stripes on it that matched his costume. He looked at the team and said "Prepare to be amazed" before dialing. The person on the other end of the line must have picked up because Nightwing said, "Hi Ma…..Yes I'm fine…..As far as I know Clark is fine too…..I'm actually not in Gotham or Bludhaven right now…..not a mission per say….no I'm not hanging out with my brothers, I'm at Happy Harbor with the Young Justice team…..Clark didn't tell you? Well it's a team that the sidekicks, excuse me partners, made. It's a mini-justice league….the only reason I thought you knew is because your grandson is on the team….Clark didn't tell you…I don't know….Why don't you go to the nearest Zeta Beam and come to us….I'll give you access….See you in a few."

Looking up at the shocked and confused faces Nightwing grinned. He switched on his holo-computer which was identical to Robin's and started to hack to league computers to give Ma Kent access to the cave. Once finished, he walked to the Zeta Beam with the team following closly behind him. Robin was the only one who seemed to know what was going on as he cackled and choked out, "Being nice to the Demon Brat is totally worth it. Superman's totally not going to feel the aster when he realizes what you've done. "

Before the team could question Robin, the Zeta Beam announced the arrival of Mother Goose M01 and Pop Hayseed M02. Everybody was once again engulfed in questions as they had never heard of a heroes whose names had just been announced. Out of the Zeta Beam a woman and a man materialized. The woman looked as if she was in her mid-fifties and was wearing a floral dress with an apron ties around her neck. The man looked around the same age but was wearing jeans and a flannel shirt.

Spotting Nightwing, they marched over. "Where is our grandson?!" The woman demanded.

Nightwing turned to Superboy and calmly said, "Superboy this is Mrs. and Mr. Kent, Superman's parents. Ma and Pa, this is Superboy, otherwise known as Conner Kent."

Superboy knew he had a shocked expression on his face before the woman gave a little shriek and hugged him. "Oh you darling boy! Please call me Ma, everybody does!" she cried. "My son is being such an idiot! But don't you worry honey, I've spent the last thirty or so years telling that boy he was being stupid and forcing him to fix his mistakes. He will be here shortly to apologize, train you, and raise you like he should have been doing since the moment he met you."

Pop took a more subtle approach and simply walked up to Superboy stating, "You can call be Pop." His simple yet affectionate smile was more than Superboy had ever received from Superman and he couldn't help but wonder if he would feel even more warm and tingly on the inside if Superman were to give him that smile.

Watching the family moment between the Kents, Robin could not help but wish for his own family to all be here.

There was Agent A who was strict yet kind, made the best chocolate chip cookies ever, and had a medical kit ready for whenever they got back to the batcave. He was also the best grandfather anybody could ask for.

Then there was Batman who was gruff but caring, and despite his many flaws, loved each of his four sons more than anything in the world including his mission. Robin knew if it came down to forsaking the lives of one of his sons or saving Gotham, Batman would always chose his sons.

There was Nightwing, who was charismatic, always seemed to know what to say, loved cereal above all else, and was the best brother anyone could ask for. Nightwing was able to make anybody feel like they were the most important person in the world to him which is why he acted as the glue for their family. He was also the only one of Batman's son that seemed to be able to bend Batman's will to his own benefit.

Red Hood was brash and reckless, cursed more than a drunken sailor, and tried to irritate Robin, yet despite that, if there was a bully at school or a gang member that managed to get the jump on him, Red Hood was always the one to teach them a lesson.

Black Bird was the newest member of the family and would one day become Robin. He was arrogant and prideful and was trained to be an assassin. Yet every once in awhile, he would act like the kid he was supposed to be (especially when he snuggled his cat plushy at night).

The Kent's did not yet have the bond that his family did, but one day they would.

Nightwing watched in satisfaction as Ma and Pa welcomed Conner to the family. He glanced down at his watch and decided that it was time to really fix the Superman problem once and for all. He sent Superman an immediate back-up request for his location, knowing that otherwise the Man of Steel would not come near the cave. He then proceeded to hack Superman's communicator so that he could not call for League backup. There was no reason to worry the other mentors just because he wanted Superman's attention after all.

Superman arrived soon afterwards only to see a bewildered Superboy standing next to a very angry woman that closely resembled his mother. Realizing that it was in fact his mother, Superman tried to make his escape only to find Nightwing blocking his exit. There was a sharp tug at his ear before he was being dragged behind his mother towards the Zeta Beam by the ear with his father following closely behind.

Ma stopped briefly to look Superboy in the eyes and say, "Well come on, we don't have all day."

Superboy diligently followed behind her, briefly stopping to wave goodbye to his team mates. The last thing that Superman saw before the Zeta Beam took him, his parents, and Superboy away was Kid Flash turning to a smug Nightwing in shock before yelling, "DUDE! DID YOU JUST TELL ON THE MAN OF STEEL?"
