This chapter focuses on Damian, Tim and Jason, and Thomas, with some very minor swearing, you have been warned. I will be writing the bat-sibling's reactions to Riley telling them she's pregnant, so hopefully this will be a long chapter. Plus I just watched Batman: Under the Red Hood and Batman: Year One and just came back from the dentist so I have nothing better to do and I thought it would be best for me to update a new chapter. Also, no Cassandra and Stephanie, sorry :( I did changed the boys ages too... AND the other bats don't know Wally died but Bruce and Tim do, Tim just doesn't know she's pregnant.


Out of all the people they could have chosen to babysit, it was them.

Don't get them wrong, they loved Thomas, he was the sun on a dark day, unless he started crying. then he was a little demon. But they just really didn't want to watch him.

They already heard about Wally's reappearance, making them have to restrain themselves from throttling Wally.

Jason coughed awkwardly. "So... uh, what do we do now?" he uncertainly asked.

"Obviously, we must watch the little Grayson-West, Todd." Damian snapped.

Tim remembered when Riley and Wally dropped Thomas off, their was a bit of hesitation on both their parts; it was obvious that they didn't want to leave their baby boy with two teenage boys and a ten year old. Tim also remembered what their reasons for leaving the little baby with them, Riley claiming that she needed some alone time with Wally, he couldn't really blame her, she has been alone for a year and hasn't had that kind of touch in a while. Even Damian knew what they meant, and he was a little kid, for god's sake! Speaking of being gone, Tim couldn't help but remember how Jason, him, and Damian reacted to finding out she was having a baby without Wally.


Tim already knew what happened to Wally, and it was heart-breaking, his older sister just lost another person she loved in her life. He was aware that she knew they were their and she still had them, but she needed a romantic touch and love, something they couldn't give her and probably something she wouldn't give to another man. He didn't think it was necessary for him to come to the cave for the announcement of another bat entering the family, but it must've been more serious than he though it was, since Bruce demanded Jason come to cave, telling him it was important and it had something to do with his older sister.

The brothers all loved their older sister, even Damian did, he was just too prideful for love. So here they all stood, Jason, Tim, Damian, and even Alfred, standing in front of Bruce in that order, all in the Batcave.

Jason crossed his arms. "So, what happened to Riley-bird? Where is she?"

"Yes, and where is West? Shouldn't he be with her?" Damian asked.

Tim had to keep himself from blurting out that Wally was dead.

Bruce shot him a warning look, telling him to keep his mouth shut and not say anything. "Earlier today... their were some complications, Wally has disappeared, and is most likely dead," Bruce stated.

Jason turned his head to the older man, not un-crossing his arms, his eyes widened and his mouth looked hung opened, Alfred looked at his charge, hand on his mouth and eyes wide. Even Damian looked at his father in shock, which was saying something for the ten year old former assassin. Tim looked to the ground.

"You're not joking, are you? He's seriously dead? How?!" burst Jason.

"That's not the only thing that's happened today. We've made a... interesting discovery today when Nightwing was in the medical wing of the mountain. It turns out Riley is pregnant with Wally's child."

Silence filled the cave. Well thats why it was so important. The silence was broken when Jason roared in anger and threw his red helmet on the ground and kicked it away from his feet, it skidded across the floor all the way to the old Robin costumes on display. Alfred put a hand on Jason's shoulder after coming out of the shock.

"Master Jason, I do not think that is a good idea, we must help Madam Riley and the young child when the time is right," Alfred said, squeezing his shoulder.

"God dammit Wally." Jason growled, walking up the stairs to the manor, going to see his sister who was put in her room and changed out of her costume.


"Guys, we have to be serious with this, Riley will kill us we hurt her baby," Tim said, picking up the small baby on the table. Thomas giggled, trying to grab onto to his uncle's face. Alfred was put on vacation, after being filled in on what happened to Wally and Bruce was at work, most likely working late and not going on patrol later.

Obviously they had to be gone.

Jason groaned. "I don't want to babysit..."

"Tt, man up, Todd," Damian scoffed.

"I'd like to see you take care of Thomas by yourself, you little demon," Jason snapped.

"I'm not going to fall for that pathetic trick, Todd!"

While Jason and Damian were fighting Tim cradled Thomas with one arm and put a finger on his mouth, silently telling the baby to not giggle. Thomas's jade eyes filled with glee and he clamped his chubby little hands down on his mouth.

Tim smiled down at his nephew when he finally made it to his room, he quietly opened the door and closed it once he was inside. He put Thomas down on his chest and took his laptop down on his lap while laying on his plush bed. "They're annoying, aren't they?" Tim asked the baby on his chest, looking down at the thick tuffs of black hair.

Thomas babbled and giggled, than yawned. Tim hummed shortly making Thomas smile lazily and drift off to sleep.


"How long have we been fighting? We am I wasting my time with you?!" Jason asked loudly.

"I do not know, it was about watching the little Grayson-West," Damian said.

Jason looked around the living room. "Hey, where is Thomas anyway?"

Damian finally took notice of the missing baby.

"Where is Drake?"

"TIM!"


In the now dark room, Tim smirked.


Sorry it took so long, writers block, and I will be working on I'm Whelmed today, but I might not post it until tomorrow. And thank you guys for the reviews! :D
