Disclaimer: I do not own Batman or any of its characters
Most people thought that when he died, Bruce Wayne didn't have any kids. I can tell you, most people are wrong. I myself am not his son. In truth I am not even related. When this child of Batman was born he was cast off. This is not to be thought off as cruel, but instead loving. You see Bruce's child was not in particular danger; rather he couldn't deal with the life presented. Not differing from any child. In the end the child came back to Bruce by some means, and was trained to become the hero in Batman's image.
This son, whose name has been lost in the years, trained his first born daughter. This continued four or so generations in the year 2123, when his father retired at 55 (a Batman Record) 36 Year old Keith Bradley took over. The surname Wayne was lost about sixty years earlier when Haley Wayne married Johann Bradley. Keith had already had a son named Andy. Andy filled the position of Robin just as all the Trainee heroes did. The boy wonder position was soon to be given up on his sixteenth birthday. He would then take up the position of Nightwing until his father retired or died.
Keith's didn't have an average "Batman" family. Every Batmanwoman before him had become rich and famous. Keith's inheritance mostly covered the rich part, but the most famous he ever got was when a new traffic light got installed on his property.
Keith Bradley who was of a slender muscular build walked beside his son into the bat cave. His son had blonde hair and was 15 years old. Their conversation continued from earlier that day.
"Come on dad, give me one good reason I can't go" said Andy
His dad replied "if you went then you wouldn't come back for days"
They entered the main cavern of the cave. The once small stalagmites and stalactites formed mighty granite pillars, and the once open floor was cut into segments. The equipmenttraining segment was not wholly disconnected from the computerdeparture segment where the bat mobile lie dormant. Its old appearance became a sub- standard for cars. The car was now cloaked had infrared scanning and all the main computer intelligence was built in to the navigation system. The sleek new design made the all black car would make anyone envious, unless the cloaking device was on. Then you couldn't see it. Unless it was in infrared, but it's hard to envy a car in infrared. On the equipment wall laid the costumes. All five in the lighted glass case Batman, Batwoman, Nightwing, Batgirl, and Robin. Only two of the positions were currently filled (this was a very empty Batman family having only Keith and his son). All the costumes were the same as before with a few new features. The features included cloaking, thermal/night vision, and the entire costume with everything in it was enhanced and strengthened. The third segment was utterly sealed off and only the current Batman was allowed in
"It isn't that I won't let you go to the movies" continued the discussion "it's that you can't go in the bat mobile"
Andy retorted "I am old enough to drive" (the legal driving age changed often, and at this time it was 14)
Both of the two removed an extendable jujitsu staff from the training wall and set it to his own height. The settings for Keith were 6' 5" and for Andy 5' 7".
"Alright, stay inbounds no K.O.s or pressure points. Make su..."
Andy cut his dad off saying "I know the rules" "GO"
Andy charged his dad who jumped in the air and smashed his staff on his sons face. In the air the Boy flailed and landed a solid blow on Keith. Andy swung violently. Keith ducked and his short black hair was hit by the wooden rod.
"Well last time you took the bat mobile people started asking questions" said Keith blocking a few blows then being jabbed in the rib.
"Fine" murmured Andy having had his feet knocked from under him.
At this time Keith stabbed down, Andy stabbed up and both were sent into a world of hurt by the ferocious blow to the face. Keith reeled backward and fell, and Andy was pushed into ground with incredible force cracking some floor. After a few seconds both stood up and got used to the recent injury.
"You're almost ready to be Batman son" Said Keith wiping some blood from his nose. "but being Batman isn't as glamorous as it used to be".
"I think you broke my rib" said Andy. Keith walked away. "dad, come on. Feel this... it has to be broken"
