The Bunker: Future
They had just finished the tour of the bunker when an alarm on the computer began to go off.
Wally immediately zipped over to the computer to check it.
"What is it?" Young Robin asked as he ran over to his older friend.
"Good news and bad news, which to you want first?" Wally asked half jokingly, but when he saw the half hearted glare sent towards him he took it as his to cue to talk.
"Bad news, Braniac went back in time, probably chasing after you. Good news, now that he's out of our time stream we might be able to get into his main modem and shut it down" Robin nodded then looked at the speedster again.
"There's something you're not telling me" he stated matter-of-factly.
Wally sighed; there were no keeping secrets from that kid.
"I invented our time machine, there's no way he could have gone back unless…" he paused.
"Unless what?" Robin said urgently.
"Unless I was the reason they were able to go back!" Robin felt his heart drop into his stomach, it all made sense now.
Sending Nightwing back in time had let Braniac through, so he could take over again.
Mt. Justice: Present Day
Connor and Nightwing were almost to the kitchen when Connor froze and bolted back to the gym.
Nightwing had no idea what was happening until he entered the room only to see Connor in a death grip by none other that Braniac himself.
Nightwing immediately jumped into action sending electric disks flying at Braniacs back causing him to turn around.
Braniac dropped Connor and droned in his monotone voice.
"You are merely minor annoyances; I have no time for you" with that he blasted through the roof and was gone.
"What just happen-" Connor stopped asking when he saw his friends face go pale.
"This wasn't supposed to happen!" Nightwing said in a panicked voice.
Megan, hearing the entire ruckus, chose that moment to rush in.
"What's going on?" She all but yelled.
"He's here, there's no stopping him now" Nightwing murmured without looking her direction.
"Unless…" Nightwing's head snapped up and he turned to Connor.
"We need a sorcerer!" exactly on cue, the Zeta beam announced the arrival of Zatanna. At the sound of her name, Nightwing's face lit up considerably.
"Oh, I had invited her over to see if she could help" Megan announced shyly and left to go get her.
She soon returned with Zatanna in tow. Zatanna looked over at Nightwing and leaned over and whispered in Megan's ear.
"Who is that?" Megan grinned at her mysteriously and introduced Zatanna to Nightwing.
"Nice to meet you, sir" Zatanna said a little too formally for his liking.
"Nightwing, you can be as chalant as you like around Me." he said with a wink Zatanna looked confused for a moment before realization hit her.
"Robin? Wow, what happened?"

A/N: ha-ha! I love that ending! I am ALL for Robin and Zatanna being together! I actually am considering her be his girlfriend in the future.
