Thanks for the review.

Doc-trigger- I'm glad to see everyone is just as confused as me even though I'm the one writing it, that's just the way I am.

Lalal- I think you might have took some of my righting the wrong way. I'm English and I don't know if the expression is used other places but a little Cocky means being self sure and over confident not behaving like a Ck, lol. If you were just commenting on Flash's behaviour of course he will cross the line sometimes he's young and keeps being told he's the greatest man alive.

Batman & The Bat

The Batmobile roared down the road at it's top speed towards the Batcave where Batman would have to begin the search for the Bat creature again, unbeknownst to the dark knight Flash ambled slowly behind it keeping up in his usual cocky style.

The doors to the batcave popped open as the batmobile squealed through and came instantly to a stop in is launch bay, Batman leapt quickly from the car and began to run towards the giant supercomputer that dominated the cave.

"Any luck Master Dick?" asked Alfred Pennyworth as he stepped out of the shadows and walked towards the boy who was like a son or a grandson to him.

"Yes but then that scarlet idiot the Flash interfered and he got away" growled Dick as he removed his hood and began to type quickly on the keyboard in front of him whilst looking at the giant map of the city which had just came up on the screen.

"Hey I resemble…resent…resemble…what word was I looking for? I mean I am not an idiot" said Flash as he stepped from the shadows "I mean I managed to sneak into your base and here's me thinking Batman is this super genius detective" grinned Flash as he looked around the dark dank cave and began walking towards the dark haired man who he could now see was just a teenager.

"Batman is but I'm not the real Batman…I'm Nightwing I'm just filling in" said the teen as he glanced over his shoulder and quickly slammed his hand onto a button.

Reinforced metal nets fired through the cage at the Flash but he simply sidestepped them all causing them to crash to the floor, he stood smiling at the side of Dick Grayson. "My reputation isn't phoney" smiled Flash "Now spill how is the billionaire Bruce Wayne suddenly a bat and why are you filling in for batman, what's up with him?" asked Flash, a sudden comprehension covered his face as he put two and two together.

"Batman and Bruce Wayne are the same person" grinned Flash quite pleased with his detective work.

"great I'm batman for less then a week and already I lose my secret identity and Bruce's" growled Dick at himself.

"Yeah you have to be pretty good to keep your identity secret" smiled Flash smugly.

"Would Master West like a drink?" asked Alfred as he carried a tray towards the two heroes with milk and juice on.

"No thanks" said Flash "…What did you just call me?"

"It took me and Bruce a whole 40 minutes to figure it out, you should be proud" smiled Dick as he continued to work at the console.

"So do you want to fill me in on how Bruce became Batman who became…well the Bat-man thing?" said Wally as he leaned on the console causing an alarm which stopped when he stood back up straight.

"How Bruce became Batman is his story if he wants to tell you but I see no problems telling you how he changed".

…

Several months earlier

Bruce stumbled through the mansion holding his side as he bled profusely.

"Bruce are you okay" asked Dick who was still dressed in his Robin guise.

"I'm fine…I have to get to the third pier…Killer Croc and Penguin have created a DNA altering chemical and are planning to release it" groaned the man as he stumbled and fell to the floor holding his side.

"Alfred!" screamed Dick as he tried to help Bruce up, Alfred seemed to appear from nowhere as he walked up to the men he viewed as his children. "Get Bruce to the infirmary and prepare the Nightwing."

…

"That was when I stopped being Robin, I'm still not sure why Bruce did it, I hope it was an accident but something tells me he would do anything for the mission."

…

Nightwing crept in the darkness of the rafters above the large room where Penguin and Croc made the last few alterations to the machine containing a thick green gas (penguin did the alterations while Croc stood there and occasionally moved heavy things.)

"So what exactly is going to happen Penguin?" asked Croc as he shifted a large crate and leaned on it while he looked at the machine.

"Well this mutanigenic gas will splice the DNA of man and animal…thus creating more of our half breed species. No more Croc will we be looked on as freaks because soon everyone will be like us and we will be gods" laughed Penguin until a Batarang crashed into the console he was working on.

Dick gasped as Batman swept down from the rafters opposite on a zipline and kicked Penguin across the room, Dick could tell Bruce was in a great amount of pain from the way he stood and held his body. It must have been this pain which had made him act so rashly, it was also this that made him miss Croc's presence which he did as steel drum crashed into his back knocking him to the floor.

Nightwing swooped from the rafters and landed a kick to Croc driving him back a few feet. Croc is not easily slowed down though as he rushed again towards Nightwing, Dick threw a wire with two batarangs attached, they wrapped around Croc's feet causing him to wobble to keep his balance. Batman ran past the two figures onto a oxygen tank and smashed of the control valve causing the tank with him still on it to drive into Croc's stomach driving both of them rocketing towards the tank of gas.

"Jump Bruce!" yelled Dick as he saw Bruce hesitating, the tanks crashed together and Batman disappeared into the tank of green gas which slowly billowed out of the smashed tank. Dick held his breath while he watched the tank, Killer Croc was the first out as he walked through the glass and then collapsed on the floor a few feet in front of the tank, Dick watched and kept preying.

Slowly a dark shape emerged from the tank, the Bat-man it screeched and rose into the air flapping it's huge wings before disappearing into the darkness of the night.

…

"The next night I stopped being Nightwing because Gotham needs Batman and Buce needs me" sighed Dick as he continued to type looking for any signs or patterns of where Bruce could be.

"I want to help" said Flash being more serious then anytime since he had became a superhero.

"I was hoping you would say that…I just found a pattern…I'm sure he's staying within this area" said Dick as he made pointed at the screen "there's an old abandoned clock tower which is where I'm sure he is."

"Why is he hanging around the one area?" asked Flash as he looked at the screen.

"I'm not sure" lied Dick as he dived into the drivers seat of the batwing, the aircraft flew away in a burst of speed as Flash quickly followed behind making his own mini sonic boom.

Alfred sighed as he looked at the screen, the little light blinked on the old movie plaza where Bruce's parents were killed, the clock tower was the next building along.

…

"I've sighted him" said Dick as he sped up the Batwing so it hurtled towards the giant black creature flying in front of him, he pressed a button which fired a missile. The missile closed in on the Bat before exploding opening a titanium net, the Bat avoided it easily and screeched at the top of it's vocal range. "The scream is causing the jet to break up, I'm going to eject" informed Dick as he pressed two buttons one fired a laser through the wing of the Bat causing him to spiral towards the ground, the second powered dick into the air where he deployed his parachute.

The Bat landed with a gentle thud, Flash seemed to appear from no where and faced the creature down head on. The Bat screamed again causing Flash to hold his hands to his ears and crumple to the floor, he could feel his brain slowly boiling and blood trickling through his ears. Flash thought fast (as if there is any other way for him) and began to put on a burst of speed as he circled The Bat, going supersonic meant the pain of the scream slowly died down but it was still always there nagging at his mind. Flash speed up more creating a gust which slowly began to lift the Bat into the air, Flash increased the speed again causing every inch of air to explode in tiny sonic booms. The Bat screamed as it's super sensitive hearing picked up the noises magnified thousands of times.

The Bat suddenly slumped to the floor and Flash stopped, Dick ran over to Flash who could see his parachute lying in the street behind him "You don't have to thank me for my help" smiled Flash "…although I never thought it would knock him out."

"It didn't" said Dick as he rolled The Bat over showing six yellow darts in the chest of the creature "I got him with the tranquilisers." Flash sighed as he rapidly came down from his superhero buzz. "I couldn't have done it without you" smiled Dick as he dragged the mutated Bruce from the floor supporting his weight "I'm sorry but I have to get him back to the cave."

Dick pressed a button on his wrist as the Batmobile screamed round the corner and stopped in front of him. The car roared away again in the direction of the cave leaving Flash standing in the street.

"Wait! I have friends who can help…." Yelled Flash but his voice just trailed off, he sighed as he reached into his tights for a tiny cell phone. He hit the first button for speed dial but it seemed to take forever for him. "Hi Lex, we need to talk…."
