Alone. Seriously he wondered why. Why him?
Standing in front of him was a hoard of young bats. Jason, Steph, Cassie, Tim, and Damian. They all had wide pleading eyes that seemed to peer into his soul. He was immune to their innocent eyes. For he knew they were not. They were evil little bats raised by the infamous Batman.
"I still don't see why you don't go to Dick," said Wally sighing. They all perked up excitedly.
"Because he can't know," Tim explained dragging Wally outside. They all had huge grins on their faces. Trick or treating in Gotham. With a speedster to boot. Wally sighed as he stood in his costume that was picked out by the young batlings. Though he liked their costumes more. Stephanie and Tim decided to go as a pair, Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf, Tim was dressed like Robin (he swore he adored his brother), Cassie was Wonder Woman and fussy little Damian was wearing a Flash costume to Wally's amusement. However the kids thought he should dress up. They even had Alfred make him a costume. For he was their Batman for the night.
Yes. He was dressed in a smaller version of Batman's uniform even though the kids had wanted the return of Bat-Flash that would not be so good for secret identities of the young heroes to be or Batman and Robin. So he was dressed up as Batman.
"Let's go," said Cassie grabbing (dragging) Wally with the rest of the siblings. Dick however was looking around the manor frantically. He groaned. Bruce had a little party tonight and they were all supposed to be there for a bit. He promised they'd go trick or treating afterward. And now he couldn't find them. They weren't aloud to leave the house without Bruce, Alfred, him or a hero.
Dick stopped. Didn't he hear Tim talk to Jason about Wally coming over? Dick moaned.
"Damn it Walls," he said running outside as the sky began to turn an inky black. This was going to be tricky.
-.-
"Jeez. I thought it was hard trick or treating in Central. Gotham's a lot harder," Wally said as they walked through a residential area. Though it was old and there were a few unfriendly people Wally had to take care of. But so far they had filled three fourths of their pillow cases with candy. Because for reasons Wally didn't understand, people in Gotham thought of them as innocent pure angels with puppy like eyes. So they gave them tons if they gave them any.
"Thank you!" the kids said in unison as they left another house running towards Wally. A woman in a wheel chair looked at him.
"I have some more if you'd like," she said. Wally walked up taking Damian with him. Damian had fallen asleep halfway so he'd get candy for him at different spots. The kids were all smiling.
"What a cute little brother you have," said the woman. A girl dressed as a witch walked up with a bowl of candy. Wally smiled shyly. His mouth felt dry. She was a beautiful Gotham girl. Dark clothes, stormy grey eyes to be complimented by her long golden hair that reminded him of liquid sunshine.
"Um. Yeah. But he's not my…"
"Wally!" whined Jason, "Let's go."
"Sorry. Trick or treat," he said taking Damian's bag away from Damian so the woman could put candy in it. She put in a gracious handful. Then the "witch" pulled out a sucker and put it in Wally's mouth.
"I prefer tricks," she said walking back inside. Only when the door was shut did Wally notice how warm his face was. He quickly shook it off and took Damian down with his siblings. He sucked on the lollipop. Mmm… passion fruit.
"Did you take Damian's sucker?" nagged Stephanie.
"No. A witch gave it to me," he said laughing wickedly, "But I think this is enough candy for all of you. I should take you home."
"Awww."
-.-
Dick did his best to play Richard at the little get together. But when there was a holiday party (even worse a costume party) and things weren't going the way they should he had a right to be nervous. Especially with Wally running around with his siblings. Wally would be so dead if not for how close he was to Batman and Flash.
"Yes!"
"Score!"
"Sweet!"
Dick jerked his head up as he heard his siblings come in through the front door into the manor. He noticed Bruce tense up a bit as he welcomed his siblings' home from trick or treating. People had mixed expressions from thinking he was sweet to thinking he was wasting his time. And more strange looks appeared as a shorter version of Batman walked in with a fussy Damian in a Flash costume. Dick smirked as "Batman" looked at Bruce while holding a very fussy little Flash.
"Back from trick of treating," Wally said calmly. The younger members of the bat family grinned as they showed their bags of candy to Bruce.
"I see. So you all had fun?" he asked trying not to freak out that Wally had taken five of his kids down the streets of Gotham. Someone flashed a camera. A reporter was here.
"Uh huh! It was fun being with Big Brother Wally," said Cassie pulling him into a hug. Another picture. Why did he have a bad feeling that Flash was going to call him tomorrow asking why Wally was now a "Wayne" in the eyes of thousands? He frowned a minute. He'd have to get more cameras. Joker was bound to see this.
Hey everyone. Next chapter. Wally's god mother. Send in your ideas. I will consider. Please use a DC hero. Yes it must be a girl. Please avoid using Batwoman. You'll see why later in the chapter. Or if you really want to stand out, make a hero. Give a description of her and her powers. Leave it in your review.
