~Chapter 25: Screw up and Birthday part 2~

"Are you finally going to explain plain and simple what I did to make you this angry?" Dick asked. Just like Bruce, he wasn't fazed by Leslie's glare.

"Cassie dear, would you leave please the room?"

Cass hesitated for a moment before she left, casting a look at her brother "I'll make it quick!" Leslie promised and when the door was shut she spun around to face Dick.

"What the hell were you thinking mixing blood groups like that?! That kind of mixture can cause a reaction to the immune-system which could make someone ill! And you have that damn electrum in your blood!"

Dick just sighed "So what you're saying is I've possibly mutated our blood groups? Because I took the antidote myself when I ran into that walking heystack"

"Yes, you said you used blood bags that was filled with Bruce's own blood right?" "Ya, twice a month we do a blood transfusion and label them carefully. The only bags that were left were the 4 that had Bruce's handwriting on them"

Leslie gaped at him before she started to chant 'no' over and over as she sat down like she was feeling light headed.

"Which reminds me we have to restock our blood supply, it was way to close call that night" Dick picked up his phone and texted the whole family. Leslie spoke up, resting her elbows on her knees and hid her face in her hands. "Dick I need to get samples from you, Bruce and the kids and have them here tomorrow"

Dick's thumb froze over the screen as he was about to send a reply to Bruce and looked up at her "Okay, I thought I could be like Bruce and not freak out but now you're starting to scare me...What the hell did I do to our blood?"

"Get the blood samples here and I'll tell you"

~Next day - Morning~

"You have possibly WHAT?!"

"Mutated our blood... Now you know, start fixing my funeral!" Dick ignored Jason's attempts to get out of Bruce's grip so he could strangle his Robin predecessor. Bruce was calm on the outside but inside he was in full panic mode. Was one of them dying?!

Steph lifted her head from the pillow "Dick if we get bad news I am going to take Jason's guns and shoot you myself!"

"White roses and don't bother telling anyone, just tell them I got incinerated on a Nightwing patrol and if a plane has recently crash make it look like I was on it. Both deaths solved!" Dick finished taking a sample from Damian, ruffling the kid's messy black hair and put the vital among the others in the bag.

"I'm leaving now"

"Bruce let go of me I'm going to kill him!"

Tim sighed "Dick, are we allowed to kill you after Bruce's birthday?"

"No one is killing anyone!" Bruce yelled out as he followed Dick out to his bike. Bruce sighed as he watched his eldest mount his bike and fixed his helmet. "I'm not mad about the blood thing, it saved our lives and I'm willing to drop it"

Dick smiled "Ya...Shame it didn't do more then that"

"What do you mean?"

"...Would have been an awesome gift but...No...It's nothing...I better go" He put on the helmet and revved the bike.

Bruce watching him go, blinking the tears away and tried to swallow past the lump that was suddenly in his throat.

*You're right Dick...What I truly want...Can't be given...Damian is just a small part of that wish but...If only it were all of you*

~Leslie's clinic~

"Let's see what you've done" She said as she took out the paper of the blood results from the printed and placed it on a clipboard to look at it. Dick, leaning against the wall by the door, just bent his head back and looked at the ceiling waiting for the judgment.

"Oh my god..."

Here we go!

"Just say it" He closed his eyes.

"...You...You kids had trouble with picking a birthday gift for Bruce right?"

"..."

Dick frowned and slowly looked at her "Where are you going with this?" Leslie sat down still looking at the paper on the clipboard, was that tears? "Dick...Sometimes I have a long talk with Bruce and recently we discussed about you and the other kids. Just the usual stuff you little rascals do and so on...And then I asked Bruce if he wished that...That all you kids were blood. Of course he started talking about how he couldn't replace John Grayson or Jack Drake, Stephanie's father is a villain sure but she still has her mother. Jason is understandable, Cass broke free of her own but she can't run away from blood ties and Damian isn't up for debate because- you know"

"Bruce is his biological father, I know. What- where are you going with this?...Repeated question..."

"What is Bruce to you? I mean...Your parents were going to just hand you over to the Court of Owls without a fight...Like they were proud of knowing you'd- okay, not going that line- not going that line..."

Leslie didn't wanna think about Dick being a killer. He had a temper, yes. He could hurt someone badly, sure.

But was he capable of murder?

Well if his whole family was threaten in front of him!

"Still trying to digest that detail but...I guess the electrum in my blood was the only good thing about that" Dick said. He was now sitting down leaning forward and rested his elbows on his knees. "What does that have to do with-"

"Would you forgive your parents?"

"..."

"Bruce unknowingly saved you from that fate and just talking about it almost made him blast out of the room to find you, to see if you were safe"

Dick groaned.

"Just tell me why you wanted the blood samples!"

She gave him the clipboard.

Aaaand she panicked when Dick fainted.

~Bruce's Birthday - February 19th ~

"Seriously? You 6 came up with a united gift and not separate?" Clark smiled at them.

Tim rubbed his neck as he and Stephanie looked at each other while Damian frowned "Well...It was really Dick who- I really don't know what he did" Tim said. Clark looked over to find Dick talking to Alfred and Leslie. Dick's hand went to his pocket and drew up a twice folded paper that he opened and showed to Alfred, luckily the elder man was sitting down as his face changed completely but Leslie's hand on his shoulder quickly reminded him that others were near.

Dick smiled as he placed a finger over his lips and folded the paper again to put it back in his pocket.

"Are you listening to them?" Steph asked.

*And ruin Dick's surprise? No way!* He thought.

Clack smiled "Nope, sorry! I'm gonna go find Bruce now" He left the two pouting teens and passed Jason and Damian sitting on a bench, drinking their sodas with blue eyes locked on their elder brother mumbling theories to each other about what he had planned without telling them. Cass was over by Bruce who was talking to Diana and Oliver.

"Think the kids mentioned something about having trouble finding gifts for billionaires!" Oliver smirked at Cass who hid her blushing face in Bruce's back, he was used to that. Bruce smiled looking over his shoulder "Really? Let's just hope it doesn't involve explosives"

"Dick threaten to rip me to pieces and bury all the parts at different locations so I didn't dig myself out of my grave again!" Jason called out earning a few chuckles.

"I almost shot your manhood off Jay, I dare to carry out that threat!" Dick's voice came from the grill area and half of the private party who weren't sitting down ended up on the ground laughing while Jason paled and bolted over to a laughing Cass, pulling her off Bruce and turned her towards Dick hiding behind her like he was holding a shield. (Which she kinda was)

Tim grinned "Hide at the Watchtower! Dick hates being there!" He muffled his laugh when Dick shouted at him not to give Jason ideas.

Diana whispered quietly to Bruce "Good thing only one of them is your blood" She smiled as she looked at the laughing 5th Robin who was trying to stay on the bench "But then again, someone thought it'd be a good idea to make Dick both his mentor and his guardian"

Bruce's heart stopped "What?" (This happens after Batman R.I.P since i can't find that comic T.T but i have read Batman and Robin V1 which has Dick as Batman and Damian as Robin. Bruce just doesn't know what Dick have done yet...Oh and Jason didn't get thrown in Arkham. Dick helped him get sane again...Or as sane as a bat can be)

Diana quirked a brow "Bruce, you really think Dick would let everything just fall apart? I think he had already applied for the guardianship for all of them weeks before you disappeared...To put a long explanation short: Dick managed to change Damian completely and he kept the family together"

Bruce scanned his kids after that, noticing how Damian actually listened to Tim's conversation and whenever he started laughing with Tim Damian would fall against Stephanie. Jason and Cass had a small tag game around the place (Good thing they were outside).

"Hey Bruce! You gonna open your gifts?" Barry zipped over with that dork smile in place. Bruce managed to catch Dick's eye but he just grinned at him.

"You'll get it later" He mouthed.

Bruce hated when Dick said that.

~Later that night~

"I have some paper work I need to finish, get some rest" Bruce said as they all got back from patrol. Most of the kids just grunted a good night to him before heading off to bed. Dick hadn't gone out on patrol and was therefor somewhere in the manor.

Bruce entered his study and found the missing bird sitting on the couch looking at the fire, he was holding several documents and was slowly turning them in his hands "Dick?"

Dick looked up before he smiled "Hey, I thought I'd wait with your gift til after patrol...Didn't want anything bad to happen if-" "You gave it before patrol" Bruce finished as he sat down. Dick rested his head on his mentor's shoulder as he handed over the documents. "Remember to breath when you read them"

Bruce quirked a brow as he unfolded the papers and turned them upright before reading. His mind slowed a bit.

The first one was a approved guardianship for Jason and the others if anything happened to Bruce. Dick's signature was on the guardian spot "You-" "They know...Damian fainted" Dick smiled. Bruce placed his arm around his eldest and used his free hand to move the first paper aside so he could read the second.

His heart stopped and he didn't care about the tears now falling in floods down his cheeks.

"D-Dick..."

"You're holding the 10th print out"

"You checked 10 times?"

"Same every time"

Bruce was trembling as Dick hugged him and noticed the peaking heads in the door but he didn't say anything "The electrum somehow merged with the blood bags that held your blood and when I mixed that with the antidote and gave it to you it..." Now Dick was crying as he tried to explain.

"...It changed our blood and..."

Bruce drew back from the hug and placed a hand on Dick's cheek "You're...Dick you..."

Dick smiled as Bruce started shacking again as the tears kept falling "You have no idea how long I've wished for that to be real!" He gasped.

Stephanie had always been weak for moments like this and wiped her eyes and Cass hugged her. Jason was rubbing Damian's shoulder and hugging Tim. Dick smiled, this was going to shock them "What was that?...Your wish..."

"For all of you to...Be my blood kids"

The bats by the door froze and their eyes almost left their sockets as Bruce pulled back again "Is this a dream?!"

"No...It's not" Dick picked up the blood result paper, counting down in his head as he looked over Bruce's shoulder "Me... Jason...Tim... Cass... Stephanie... and Damian" Bruce covered his mouth as he cried harder and Dick hugged him.

"We're your blood kids...The mix made us all your biological children!"

The doors to the study flew open as the rest of them latched on to their adopt-...Their biological father, Dick got up from the couch and moved to sit in the armchair, watching them all crushing each other and tried to soak in the information.

When he had been alone with Alfred the poor man had been in tears himself as he read the documents with Dick explaining beside him.

"You have no idea how much he wished for this to be true...For all of you to really be his own children! You know what everyone said about this family but it wasn't enough for Master Bruce...He...He will be so much happier now"

"You really think so Alfred?"

"...I know it"

Dick yelped as he was ripped out of the armchair by his brothers and was tossed into Bruce's open arms, who lifted him spinning off the ground hugging him. "Thank you...So much!" Bruce whispered in Dick's ear as he stopped spinning "Thank you for making my wish real"

Dick smiled as he hugged back "Just save me from everyone's wrath when they find out"

Bruce was confused at first before he burst out laughing and crashed in the couch almost crushing Dick in his arms.

Clark had dreaded the day they actually admitted they were blood related...Well now they were!

Batman still couldn't believe it weeks later as he watched his kids run around on the roof top playing their version of tag. His heart swelling in joy as Robin moved his cape in front of his face trying imitate their father but all he did was making Red Robin collapse on the roof screaming how adorable he looked. Robin pouted looking away and yelped as Red Hood lifted him off the ground and spun them both.

His kids...His sons and daughters!

His heart had almost deflated when Leslie told him that not only had his feathered brained eldest son changed their blood but everything else too!

They were...literally...Bruce's own flesh and blood!

Dick had almost fled the planet when those who know both id's of the Batfamily found out but he escaped with a injured wrist from Superman and a black eye from...Flash? Someone gave him that anyway. Batman smiled as Robin and Red Robin ganged up on Red Hood and chased him around, leaving their sisters laughing on the side lines.

To bad Nightwing was in Blüdha-

"Dad!"

...Never mind.

Batman turned around and caught his eldest son as the bird crashed into his chest. He covered the acrobat with his cape and hugged him tightly.

If he had been Bruce Wayne at the moment he would have cried the second he saw his kids.

As Batman he had more self control.

"You need to practice your surprise attacks"

Nightwing smiled "Do I?"

"Maybe not...God I've missed you so much"

"And I'm home for 2 months! I'm gonna go say hi to the others"

Before Batman could answer Nightwing had disappeared and was being chased by his siblings who yelled and cursed at him for the ump-tenth time for living across the river.

He smiled at them all before he saw Robin point at the sky and saw the Bat-signal had been lit.

...

No one had told the criminals right?

I'm going to bed -.- zzzz
