Crystal revved the engine and giggled from behind the helmet. She took off, jumping off the roof and down that ally way.
She stopped short of turning off that ally, waiting for Tim.

[Emter Nioghtwing from... Aw, who cares?]
d**k landed behind Tim after doing a bit of roof-hopping and building-climbing. He hadn't caught a word of Tim and Crystal's conversation with Commissioner Gordon, but he figured Tim would just tell him anyway.
"Hey Tim," he said, putting a hand on the younger bird's shoulder. "How's the day been for you thus far?"

Before Tim followed, he turned his head to see his 'older brother' behind him.
"Hey Catgirl, Nightwing's decided to join us."
Robin smiled after he spoke through the link in his helmet before he spoke back to d**k.
"It was very eventful, actually. And we just talked to the Commish-- he gave us a pretty ugly looking case to help out with, too. Wanna join in? I'll catch you up."
He gestured to join him on the bike, since d**k obviously didn't have a cycle of his own at the moment.

"Sure thing, and who's Catgirl?" d**k asked, not knowing about Crystal. "Oh, how's that Irish girl? She still at the Manor?" d**k said, getting on Tim's bike. "Damn, I wish I hadn't left the Wingcycle at the Batcave... I figure it'd be nice to ride alongside you, man."

Tim chuckled and revved the cycle before he followed the same path Crystal had taken to reach the street, all the while answering Nightwing's questions.
"You'll meet her in a sec-- and yeah, Abby's fine. She's catching up with her brother Aiden right now back at base. You've been missing out on quite a bit."
Wow, Robin could tell that d**k had a lot to catch up on since he'd been out of the loop.... but it was only a week ago where Tim had been in the same situation. After driving up to Crystal, he stopped next to her so Nightwing had time to introduce himself.

Crystal Snickered and spoke back to Tim with her own com. "How 'bout we get d**k back home so he can get a bike and we can tell him everything while we're not out in the open."
She revved her engine twice and waved at the two.

"Ah, so she found him? That's nice to hear. Wish we could say the same for Bruce," d**k said as they rode, and when they stopped next to Crystal, he gave her a raised hand in greeting.
"Hey there, I'm Nightwing," he said to her; this would make it obvious to Crystal that this Nightwing was not the one she had known.

Tim hesitated as he looked between the two before settling his gaze on Crystal.
"Wait... you know him already......"
Oh boy, more 'multi-verse' complications.... these were painful to deal with sometimes.

d**k looked from Tim to Crystal and, being pretty intelligent and rather savvy, the answer came quickly: Crystal was from an alternate universe and knew an alternate version of d**k himself.
"Huh. Well then, that's interesting," he said softly. "Honestly, after giving it some thought, I've decided not to think about the complications that arise from a merge like this. It's easier that way."

Crystal smiled from behind her helmet. "I know, right? But yes, I do know an alternate you so that makes it easier on one of use at least." She was glad her helmet was on, the blush on her cheeks was enough to tell that she was very well acquainted with d**k from her world.
"So..." She got ready to go. "Last one to the cave buys ice cream?" She took off before Tim could agree, dodging out of the ally and between traffic.

With this, Tim shot off after Crystal into the busy Gotham streets, once again weaving in and out of traffic.

"Step on it, Robin! You don't wanna buy ice cream, do you?!" d**k asked, but he had a big grin on his face as he said it. Ice cream sounded really good at this point...

Crystal kept Tim and d**k in sight as she weaved between cars but took off at the last second, once on the driveway to the Wayne Manor, and passed the dirt road to the Batcave, heading right to the manor.
((Exit Crystal to Wayne Manor))

Robin narrowed his eyes and concentrated on the drive, to the point that he didn't respond back to Nightwing. They sped along, heading directly for the front of the manor.
(Exit d**k/Nightwing and Tim/Robin to Wayne Manor)

 After about thirty minutes going from street to street, Jinx lost not only Nightwing but lost track of Macready. As the metahuman herione makes her way back to the Batcycle she rode, 'Batgirl' complained in Hindi, "जो बात को सभी बकवास आज~की~रात~को!?! मुझे बाहर विंग रात पत्तियों को सूखने, और जाली एक~सेनिक~जो~सेना~के~अधिकारी~का~नौकर~हैं डालता दूर हूं और मॅँ में अभी मलजल!?!?"(Translation: What's with all the crap tonight!?! Nightwing leaves me out to dry, and the fake Batman gets away, and I'm doused in sewage!?!?) Jinx's eye twitched, while the sewage smell continued to offend her nasal passages. Finally, the dark Titan in disguise got back to the bat-themed motorcycle. Checking the vehicle out, Jinx mounts the bike and takes off like a bat out of hell, Wait until I get my mitts on that....[Exit Jinx ('Batgirl') to the Batcave]
