Um? By the way I honestly had no idea how the heck Batman would react, I wrote this up without much thought, lol.

Disclaimer: Just get it over with, pause, calm my mind... I do not own! Heads up a serious chapter, if you squint! I think it is I don't know lets see how this works out. Enjoy.

The room was dark, gloomy, cold, and in some odd way distant. A man hid in the shadows, which was nothing new only a small lamp light was on. Obviously if there were shadows in the room, the light did not fill the entire room.

As soon as Richard entered his room, he felt something was off. This instantly put him on edge. He glanced around the dark corners of the room, he squinted. The boy tensed seeing something.

Seeing that he was spotted he stepped out of the shadows, frightening the ebony boy slightly.

"B-br,.. Batman! Don't scare me like that!" Robin said shaking his head, a towel around his neck, his hair was still damp. The young teen wore fresh casual clothes, not like he was going to go back to his itching powder infested uniform.(costume)

"Work on your guard. I've been thinking." Batman started, getting straight to his point.

When don't you think, robin thought sarcasticly but he knew now was the time to keep his mouth shut, "Bout what?"

"Perhaps, for once, the other leaguers are right, it was your fault. How many times have I told you to not leave your things lying around, including your costume. And not even locking your room, shame."

Dick's jaw dropped, he couldn't believe what he was hearing! "Wh-what!" he stammered. "I, I, You! Your agreeing with them! But... but why!" he felt greatly betrayed.

Batman stood there no emotion on his face. After about two minutes of silence, Bruce gave him a ghost batman smile. "Some part of that I agreed to, lock your room."

Robin still felt betrayed, he could feel his anger rising. "That and I wanted to see how you would react." Batman added watching that Robin was still tensed.

Robin gave humph and looked away from him, he focused on scrubbing the towel vigorously on his mop of black hair with his right hand. His left arm stayed at his side uselessly.

"So is that why you came here? To tease me? Just like the others. Thanks but no thanks, I've been humiliated enough." robin spoke bitterly.

Usually he wouldn't mind when it was a prank or two but he was starting to get annoyed on always being picked on, first at school, then his own god damned friends, he had just had about enough and now even Bruce. Was it too much to ask to be left alone for one day? Apparently it was, and it was also starting to really irritate him. There was only so much a teen could take, the youngest of them all to be specific.

But Bruce didn't get the hint, sometimes the world's greatest detective sucked at figuring teens out, like most mentors, guardians, and parents, they just fail at fully understanding their teens, typical.

(You guys want to see Bruce argue with himself in thoughts? Of course you do)
Bruce's head.

Main Thought: Is he upset?

Counter thought: No, it was just a stupid prank, he'll get over it.

Questionable thought: But why not help him get over it with a little revenge?

Processing: No that ended horribly last time, and I'm an adult no time to waste my energy on idiotic things like revenge.

Considering: Yet again he does look depressed...

Adult thought: No Bruce, do not get involve in such childish games.

Father thought: But he looks so miserable! It's my job to protect him!

Jerk thought: Am I going soft! I have more important things to think about, dammit! Do not do it. I repeat do not, be strict! Brush it off!

Random thought: Did the Joker ever escape again? I'll check later.

"Batman? You gonna just stand there and watch me? No offense but its kinda creeping me out." his bird stopped his train in thought.

Final thought: Too bad he was interrupted from thinking, it's what I consider a hobby.

"I want you back at the cave." The Dark Knight ordered the teen as he walked out of his protege's room in Mt. Justice.

"Um, our cave or stay in this one?" Robin asked pushing his shades further onto his face.

"With Agent A." Batman said before fully stepping out of his room.

Robin grabbed a couple things from his room, and rushed after his mentor.

"Hey, wait up! Where you going?" he puffed slightly reaching Batman.

"Where are you going." Batman corrected him facing forward. Robin rolled his eyes at him annoyed.

"Whatever," the 13 year-old grumbled crossing his arms in front of his chest, he did his best to ignore the pain that shot up his arm when he bent the injured arm.

"Do not roll your eyes at me. Watch that tone of yours, too." Batman strictly instructed not even looking down at him. Dick blinked away the shock, how Bruce knows these things he will never know.

"You didn't answer my question," Robin pointed out, how long where these halls? They still haven't reached the zelta tubes.

"Cave." Batman answered after a brief pause as if he was thinking about where he was going. Ah cave, or in his case home.

Robin froze before entering the main entertaining room, Batman noticed this but continued walking as if he didn't notice.

There they were, all ready to laugh at him, or maybe even play a prank. Got another stupid dare for me to do? He thought sourly. He gave them all an intense Batgalre from the shadows, he saw them laugh, looked likes Kaldur insulted someone.

He knew if he entered the room attention would shift to him, something he did not want to put up with at the moment. He could do what Wally called his nija thing, but the Supes, or the Martians might sense/hear him. He could do nothing, but wait til they left.

But life wasn't fair. Bruce had came back for him, and tried to pull him out of the shadows. Obviously the man didn't want to wait for him.

Robin struggled out of the man's grip, "Let go I'm coming," he whispered so softly only Bruce would been able to hear him, unless both Supes where using superhearing at the moment.

Yeah your coming, in a year. "Your plan is to stay here and hide." Bruce said in his gruff voice yet he managed to whisper just as quietly as Robin had done.

Dick's cheeks heated a little, Darn how did he figure it out?

"No, I was just um watching the um clock. I wanted to know the time is all." Dick voice full of lies.

Bruce squatted down to Dick's level and turned his head to the direction Robin was staring at. "Odd the clock is on the other side of the room." Bruce muttered.

"I was looking for the clock, thanks for finding it," Dick covered.

"You know the time, now let's go." Batman said going back to his grumpy self.

"Um, I can't...cuz I... I forgot something." he lamely excused himself. Can't I just stay, here in my room? Wait no. No I don't want to be here, not now. They'll laugh! I just know it... Dick took a shaky breath, trying to clear his head of these thoughts. Aww crud! He was scared to face them! He's scared they will make fun of him. Just his luck. Now what?

Is he scared? Bruce thought shocked, he reached for his son's shades. He removed them for a brief second, that was all he needed.

He saw the fear in Dick's baby blue eyes. Bruce's dad side took over in a mater of seconds. Batman inwardly growled, Alright screw adult decisions they scared and humiliated his Robin! That's more than enough reasons for him to avenge.

"There are secret teleporters located deep in the mountain, follow me." Batman instructed and Robin happily relieved followed.

~Wayne Manor~

Dick Grayson watched his mentor with amusement, they where in the manor main living room. Alfred was off in the kitchen baking goods or was he cleaning stuff? Ah, he couldn't remember.

"I've never seen this side of you Bruce! Welcome to the even darker side, pranks." Dick joked. "I'm pretty sure you know nothing about revenge. So let's start with the basics, krazy glue! Krazy glue anything it's awesome."

Batman sent him a small glare, and continued to scribble notes onto a paper. "I for a fact know a thing or two, did I ever tell you what I did to Clark Kent after he used his ex-ray vision to find out my identity?"

Dick shook his head in a 'no' postion.

"Now this was before, Clark and Miss Lane where ever an item. I knew Kent had a huge crush on her, league things. I was furious he found out, for my vengeance I went to his city and how you teens would say banged his chick. Clark was not amused." (Lol true Batman episode! It didn't show them actually doing it, but Lois did receive flowers and a condom from a certain playboy billionaire. He put the man of steel in his place after that. Idk what show it was)

Dick sent his mentor a disgusted look, "TMI Bruce."

"TMI?" Bruce asked clearly confused, teens and their weird langue what happened to plain english? I guess it's either not cool anymore or they are too lazy to finish there own senteces.

"Too much info. Why not put laxatives in their food? Watch fireworks explode!" Dick spoke evilly.

Bruce scoffed, "Amature." Dick raised a shocked eye brow at him, "Me?"
"Think about it Richard, it's messy and too risky. Someone get's really sick or what if the wrong person falls for it? Then what, sheepishly apologize? Then what about the members that are Aliens, maybe it won't work on them, or effective them awfully you can never be to careful."

"Oh, no didn't think about that..." Dick said trailing off in thought.

After a minute or so Dick came up with another idea, "Fear Gas!" He exclaimed eyes lighting up. "Put it in their rooms while they sleep! No sweet dreams for them! It's genius! Harmless kinda."

"Again, we don't know the outcome, it could end up as a funny prank or a horrible disaster. Fear gas is something we don't want to mess with, possible to give someone a heart attack or leave them traumatized for their whole life." Bruce again pointed out the flaws. Dick frowned disappointed.

"And think about all those antidotes we will have to make, a lot of work." Bruce added with a smirk Dick smiled back at him, "Yeah that won't work."

"Well we could just dirty all their favorite stuff, it will be a bitch to clean up." Robin half joked, "Cept I don't want to be the one to clean it this time."

Bruce smirked, "Think bigger. It has to be something serious, yet a little," Bruce puased before saying the word, "humorous. And most important embarrassing. Nothing to dangerous, nothing too simple either."

"All I got is hair dye or hair removal, yeah crazy hair week month if the hair dye don't come out. Wait no it might effect someone right? Scratch that out. Gosh this is harder than I thought..." Dick pondered on his revenge ideas.

About three hours later it was eleven o'clock and they still had squat, well Robin had squat Bruce wouldn't share his ideas, mostly cuz he kept crumbling up his ideas and throwing them into the nearest trash can.

Dick stared at the ceiling stifling a yawn. "Where's that 101 ways to get revenge book of yours?" Bruce said running a hand through his thick black hair.

"Ironically, I lost it." This time Dick didn't bother to stop the yawn that came out of his mouth. "In a bet, with a friend," he cleared up resting his head against the arm of the couch. His sleepy eyes remained half open.

"But didn't you read the book like 100 times." Bruce asked.

"Yeah and you shot down all of the ideas," Richard said out of energy, now eyes fully closed.

Bruce sat there on the edge of the couch lost in thought as Dick drifted off.

(In Mt Justice around the time the Bats had left)

"Where the hell did Batman and Robin go? The dudes never came back, weird huh." Wally said noticing it had been awhile since they had seen them.

"Oh you know Batman and Robin, always in shadows. And the guys probably went to go delete all of the media rumors gossip, Kaldur over there spilled." his uncle suggested brushing it off.

[Me: Um yeah he totally went to go do that hehe, oops looks like Batman forgot a tiny detail:)]

(Back in Wayne Manor. Around 2 a.m.)

"Dick, Dick, Richard." Bruce whispered harshly shaking his young ward's shoulder trying to get him to wake up. Dick had fallen asleep on the couch.

Dick opened his eyes with a dazed look on, the bright lights from the room blinding him. "Huh? I'm up! I'm up, what's wrong?" he asked on full alert.

"I figured it out." Bruce said proudly.

"Uh-huh, Bruce I'm going to need a little more." Dick said not really paying attention, When did this pillow get here? He noticed his head had been laying down on something soft, must of been Alfred.

"I'm the Boss, (blank, blank) report cards, (words) paychecks (more words), (something else)fired and I forgot to hack into the (something) Harbor's (bad word) paparazzi! I'll be right back, go to your room to sleep." was all Dick understood before Bruce jogged out of the room.

Soo he was talking about Dick's grades? Or was it something about Wayne tech? Or something about being Batman? Go back to bed? "Whatever." He let his head hit the pillow with a thump, Bruce could explain this when his mind was fully conscious. He slowly let darkness take him into a peaceful slumber.

A/N: Who the hell knows what the Dark Knight/Night is up to? Guess;)
