// I know. All he's doing is watching them leave. This would be more of a 'as she's walking out' kind of thing, since I don't think Crystal would stick around either. //

Once he was sure that both women had left, Reaper finally stepped out of the darkness of the doorway. He paused another moment, then sighed and rubbed his temples. Alright...something else to do then. He didn't feel like searching both city's for one museum though. It would be easier if the original took care of it, but...well things were more interesting at the Sanctum right now.
He took another look at the large computer, then shrugged and 'shadowed' his way over towards it. There, he glanced down at all of the buttons again. Thinking that he had seen a map pop up on the screen earlier, he pressed one of the buttons he had earlier. (One that he knew didn't cause the stupid bats to come out.)
Automatically, a large aerial map of Gotham City appeared on the large screen. Reaper grunted and tossed his arms up. Oh, sure...NOW it does what he wants it to...
Looking around again, he pressed another button. This time a small box came up on screen asking for a location. He thought for a moment, then shrugged and just typed in 'Museum'. Unsurprisingly, quite a few locations popped up. Well...at least it narrowed his search down quite a bit. The shadow around his feet swiveled a bit, and a few duplicates of himself were sent out to the locations that had been brought up on the screen.
Alright...that was done. Now what did he do? Guess he could go back into the mansion again and shuffle around the kitchen again for a bit. Without looking, he pressed the button that he thought was the one he had used to bring up the map. Thinking it would turn it off.
Instead, a different screen came up on several of the smaller monitors. The security videos...by whatever miracle possessed them to work again since Gossamer took great lengths to make sure they DIDN'T....came up onto the screen.
Reaper blinked a moment, then glanced back around the room. Well....maybe this would show him something. Maybe one of the listed people were in here when they suddenly disappeared and it was caught on video. Worth a shot anyway.
Playing around with the buttons again, he managed to rewind the footage.

The dim light was welcoming on Tim Drake's eyes as they blinked open. The chilled air and echoing squeaks of dark creatures informed him right away of his location. He sat up slowly, rubbing his head. What happened? He couldn't remember how he came to this position... or why he was in such a secluded area of the cave. He felt at his the jacket he was wearing; he was in his street clothes. Standing up, Tim brushed at his jeans and felt under his shirt to make sure his Robin uniform was underneath. Sure enough, it was, though Tim wasn't quite sure the reason he had to feel with his hand to know it was there... his head still must have been clouded. With caution he found his way through the cave. It was difficult, especially since he didn't have the help of his night vision built into the mask. That, and the fact this part of the cave wasn't used for anything in particular... as his eyes adjusted a little more to the darkness, he found a recognized path and followed it to what he knew would be the Batcave's Trophy Room. Hopefully someone there would explain why he woke in a deeper part of the cave than he would have liked. After several long minutes walking down the tunnel, he could finally see traces of the Batfamily's existance. Wire and cameras were hidden in the rock along the walls... further along, small amounts of artificial light flashed across portions of Robin's path. The cave opened up into the Trophy Room... and Tim walked on. So far no one had appeared, and it was quite unsettling for the bird... "Bruce?"His voice echoed, and it was louder than he had expected. Surely if anyone was home, they would have heard him. "Alfred?"

//A couple of things that Tim would notice is: 1) the makeup and disguise kits have recently been used. 2) There a set of girl's goth clothes in a box, and 3).... Barbara's suit is missing from the case.//

Crystal looked up from the Batwave, she was still trying to fix the defence system.
She saw Tim walk out the shadows and sighed as she walked over to him. She was still in costume as Catgirl.
''They're not here. I don't know where they are either.'' She holds her hand out to the boy.
''My name is Catgirl, and I assume that you are the regular Robin of this universe?'' She raised her eyebrow and her right cat ear twitched in curiosity.
((I'm on my cellphone right now so I'll have to change colors on my dialog later))

Tim spun on his heal at the sound of a new voice. He tensed and stared, confused at this sudden intrusion... or introduction.
"Catgirl...? Universe? Wait-"
Tim frowned. This was confusing already. And... it was still darker in the cave than usual, but did he just see her ear twitch? Robin slowly raised his own arm and accepted the handshake.
"What's going on? How did you get in here?.... and what do you mean, 'regular' Robin?"
He loosened his muscles a little, all which had automatically fallen into a defensive stance at the sign of her. 'Catgirl' was relaxed, and it appeared there were no immediate threats...only many questions.

she heaved a heavy sigh. ''Apparently, like many others, you either have lost memories of recent events, was uncontious the entire time, or come from yet, another Earth...'' she stopped and looked at him as her ears drooped down halfway. ''you do know about the infinate Earths right?''
Crystal remembered hearing about the Earth where Batman was Owlman and he was trying to whipe exsistance as a whole because it 'was the only true dicision on could make.'
But anyway, Bruce and Alfred have dessapiered, along with many more heros.'' She walked to the computer and pulled up some files she had found wile trying to reactivate the security system. ''This is what he was investigating before he vanished himself.''
It was information he had found out about others that had dessapiered and his theries about what might of happened.

((wait, wasn't Reaper at the computer...?))
Tim followed her over to the computer and looked up at the giant screens.
"I'm...not sure. My head's still fuzzy."
He rubbed the back of his head, as if he just had a massive migraine. Tim took a glance around the place.
"Well, this is definately the 'same' Batcave.... wait..."
He walked a few yards from the computer and opened a foreign object: a box containing... girl's clothes? Tim made a face, wondering to whom they belonged.
"Maybe Spoiler was here..."
Was his first thought, which he said to himself outloud. He had never seen her wear these particular outfits as Stephanie... Tim turned to face Catgirl, at the same time pulling off his shirt to reveal the green and red underneath, the golden emergency R-shaken on his chest.
"To answer your earlier question, I am Robin... I guess from this 'universe'."
He introduced himself feeling he was a little late, but still...
"I don't know exactly how they do things where you're from, or who you ...know..."
Tim's voice grew quiet as his eyes drifted to another peculiar sight. He ran up to the lit cases containing the uniforms... he stared at an empty area, perfectly sized for a single costume..... Barbara's uniform was missing.
"Where... where's Batgirl's uniform?"
He turned to Catgirl. Barbara was in a wheelchair... she couldn't possibly-

Crystal looked over to Tim and giggled, her sncitive ears picking up his words. ''To answer both questins, Jinx is running around in the costume, she put her clothes in that box.
''Also I'm from this universe. I found the Batcave by following Jinx here I also found out alot about y'all from the Batwave.'' She looked back at the computer.
''Don't worry I'm cool. I mostly freelance anyway.'' She thought for a moment and her eyes went wide before she pulled a facepalm. ''I forgot all about work... O well, Pingy knows that I can't always make it...'' She more spoke to herself at this point.

((Honestly I don't know. Like I said before, I'm on my phone and the first post on this page fore me is your's about waking up. And even if he was Crystal was already on the computer and I had never stated she had left anyway... So I decided that, to explain why she wasn't doing anything is because she was still working on a futil effort of getting the security back up.))

"What?"
He had to register that one. Jinx in Barbara's costume?
"Why is she.......?"
Tim stopped and pulled the shirt over his arm, walking out of sight... only to arrive with the dark mask over his eyes and the cape in place of his shirt. He fixed it around his neck, pulling green gloves on as well.
"So what day is it... if I was out for that long to miss all this."

Crystal had to thinkl about this for a moment before she just looked at her cell phone and telling him the date.
((you'll have to ask Saph that lol but I do belive that the official merging lasted about two years in game and it's been about a half a year in game sence this forum started wich is after the DC and Marvel character figured out it was more benificial to just work together.))
''Let's go somewhere else, alright? I'm just pissed off with the damn security system at this point.''
She walked over to a covered bike and pulled the tarp off, revieling the Birdcycle. ''Your ride.'' Catgirl smiled back at him.

(( the Redbird. XD and she'd say a simple number, right? "the 16th" no one adds in the months when they're asked the date.... ^_^))
Tim's eyes widened at this, thinking to himself that he'd been out for days, according to her response..... not realizing months and years were also in the difference of when he last patrolled Gotham.
He followed Catgirl to the Redbird she had revealed.... the cover looked more battered than Tim expected. He swung a leg over the motorcycle and handed the helmet to Catgirl, looking back at the Batwave for a mental note.
"I'll work on the system later."
He had to see what condition the city was in over the 'days' he was gone.
((so... how chaotic is Gotham at the moment? ... will he be surprised? XD ))
