Bruce turned to Jason and felt relived he was alive, but confused and regretfull. He took in a deep breath. "Jason... You were my second Robin.. We were out on a mission and.. The Joker took you." Bruce had t fight back any emotions he knew would slip out and betray him. "You didn't come home." He said. His voice cracked slightly. "The Joker had killed you." He shook his head. "Or at least.. You were dead... I don't know how or why your here now." Bruce tried to strenghen his voice again. He didn't need to break down and cry, not again. He had mourned Jason already but he had tears of joy now that wanted out. He had to keep it together for the rest of them. "Maybe once I figure this out and get everyone back to normal.." He said.
Damian hadf taken Salena's other hand in his. He had examined her glove closly and liked that she had claws too. He then looked at his own gloves.
"I want claws." He pouted up at her.
d**k had put together that he was no longer Robin. But really all of them had been Robin? He listened to Bruce talk and looked over at Jason, his brother. He looked to Tim, another brother. Damian was the baby of the nest, Stephanie from the sounds of it was also a Robin. He had a sister in that reguards. He sighed deeply. "i'll be in the cave taking apart the machine." He offered. He looked to Tim. "You seem smart, lend me a hand?"
Tim blinked at d**k's request. "Uhh.. Yeah sure.. What about the girl? stephanie?" For some reason he was worried about her. He looked around the house. "Kitchen, wheres it at?"
d**k showed him where the kitchen was and Tim got a glass of water for Stephanie. He would at least do that for the girl.
He found her sitting and walked up casually and calmly. He held out the glass and smiled. 'thought you could use this." He offered. d**k and I are going into the Batcave." he had to refraim from saying Batcave like a crazed fanboy. "you wonna come with?" He asked her.
a cat had wondered in and looked at the pair before leaping on ther seat beside stephanie. It was one of damian's strays he made friendly.

xxxIf he had been the kind who expressed himself on a daily bases his mouth would be wide open and possibly twitching. He had become Robin, the actual Robin after the first had grown to old, he had cared for him. His voice cracked at the mention of his death, why wasn't any of this clicking. The teen grabbed his forehead for a moment as he turned his back on the crusader, he had been killed while on duty with Batman. BATMAN, the one person who was supposed to guarantee the protection of this ******** city and everyone in it. Everyone including him and he had been killed under his watch. And what did he do, go out and get another one.
xxx"Huh, couldn't even protect your own sidekick. Your own Robin, go figure. No wonder every time I look you in the face you I want to smear it across the ground." The female had left and shortly after so had the other two as if this was completely normal and nothing was wrong, leaving him alone with Catwoman and the kid, who was pouting over wanting claws or something. He was pissed, royally so. Couldn't even look at the man in the face any longer, flashes of newspapers hanging on a wall entered his mind for a moment. But just as quickly as they were there they were gone and he found himself clenching his fist.

xxxShe had been trying to sort her thoughts out, trying to regain thoughts that she once had. Thoughts that should have been able to come up on the spot, her hand absentmindedly fell to her stomach and she leaned back in the couch. Ten years, ten long years and she couldn't recall a single thing. She was in this body and couldn't even account for half the things she had done in it, throwing her mask back the female let out a long sigh. This was troubling her more than it seemed the others, Damian looked too young to even be bothered by it. Tim had simply been more focused on something that he figured out who knows how long ago and d**k was just going on like it was the most normal thing- like he hadn't lost the last ten years of his life.
xxxShe had her head resting back against the wall when Tim had walked in, she hadn't bothered to give him a glance. She could see enough through her peripherals though she did take the water gladly. There had been a cat pacing back and forth outside the room for a while, she had taken to watching it before slouching her head back in the position she was in now. A sigh escaped her lips as she sat forward and took a long sip from the glass. Her eyes followed the cat as it made its way around the other side of the couch before she snapped her attention to him."How can you two just act like everything is normal. You sound like this is normal, like you hadn't been told you lost ten years of you life?"She set the cup violently down on the floor before grasping his shoulders,"Tim, that is most of our life! Ten years, Tim. We don't even know how we got thrown into the super hero business, we went to school like normal kids. Studied for tests, did projects. How did that change? Won't there be people looking for us?" Sure Bruce had probably thought of this, but had he taken into account their mental stability. What if there was a house fire? What if their parents were in jail, criminals? Why did she have such a feeling of guilt whenever she looked at anything that looked like a small child? Why did her stomach twist in knots when she looked at him?

xxxSelina moved her hand back some before springing the claws into action and retracting them. She could keep him busy while this little thing played out, that much she could do.

Bruce had a pained look on his face. "I've lived with the guilt this long. I still look at your costme every day and know that it changes nothing, I can't go back and fix it.. I would if I could. Howeve you managed to come back.." Bruce was fighting the tears again. He wanted badly to hug Jason but knew it would only cause more problems and maybe a fight. "I'm not perfect.' Bruce said.
Tim looked at d**k then back at Stephanie. "Batman is helping us look for an answer.. I trust him. He'll fix it I just know." Tim answered. Tim seemed confident that if anyone could restore their memories it was Batman and the original Robin.
d**k let out a deep sigh. "We will figure this out." He said with a bright smile. "And whatever happens happens. I know Bats will get this sorted out and we canall go on about our lives,"
Damian looked in wonder at the claws. He laughed and lokked closer. He liked this lady a lot, she was pretty and cool.
One of his cats strolled up and began to purr, rubbing against his feet. damian looked down with a huge smile. "Kitty!" He lifted the cat up and held it close. He then held the cat up to the kitty lady.

xxxHe wasn’t buying it, he wanted to but he just couldn’t. There were too many things that didn’t add up, maybe it would have been a good idea to go down with the others to the cave. Perhaps if he did see his suit he would be able to move on, sure Bruce sounded like he was about to break. Something he had never witnessed before during his time, perhaps he was sincere about all of this. But if said all of this was true then how the hell was he standing here today, how long had he been alive? Perhaps losing his memory wasn’t for the best, sure it may have been had he not noted the whole “Your alive” comment. But at least with this out front the two of them didn’t have to hide what they feel, or at least not as much as they would have been. Showing emotions was not exactly ‘normal’ for their career choice. ”Fine, whatever. We need to figure out how to reverse all this, no? Let’s get a move on,” He was willing to put this behind him, for now. From the sounds of it he was the only one who he could go to in order to find out how exactly he had been brought back. IF said ‘future’ self even knew.

xxx”I sure as heck hope you, of all people, trust the guy." She chuckled, she hadn’t known how long Batman and Robin had been running together since the two of them were around when she was growing up, but with this situation they had been fighting crime for more than a decade. There was no mistaking it, there was a bond between them that nothing could severe but other than the fact that boy wonder grew up, she couldn’t help but wonder if they kept in contact. Scrunching up her nose slightly the female took her hands off of Tim and threw her ‘mask’ back on before standing up abruptly ignoring both the cat and the two guys until she was a couple steps away. ”Ungodly trust in the man. No wonder he is so stressed.” She chuckled before placing a hand on her hips, wanting nothing more than to get things rolling…to get out of this room where she had lost her mind practically.
xxx So much for straightening my thoughts, She had taken a notice in how much more older the man, Bruce, looked than what she could remember from seeing him on the television. Time had passed, even if she could not recall seeing the billionaire on the television her body told her so. Crossing her arms and throwing her weight onto her left foot the blond pursed her lips as her mind floated to other things. Whoever the hell they were fighting managed to come up with something that literally wiped the Bat family out. Sure their bodies may have been trained to do whatever it was they had been able to but now their minds were not on par with their bodies. This time it was the opposite of what it may have originally been. Instead of their bodies being unable to do what their minds wanted them to do, whether it was because of fatigue, stress, fear, etc… their bodies were trained, obviously, to do things they may not have even thought about doing at this point in their lives. ”Boy wonder, if we are all part of this family we may want to begin training...again." Her steel blue eyes darkened behind the mask, surly he would know what he was talking about. If not she didn’t doubt that Tim may have caught on.

xxxShe would just keep the boy entertained, though she did keep an ear out listening to the two bicker between one another. She was slightly surprised to find Bruce actually losing his bearing, she hadn’t seen it personally while he was in suit but she did note how after the incident the whole city was talking about that Bruce, as in Bruce the billionaire seemed a little – oh how to put it, off. He was still there answering questions about this and that, still going around and building up his industry, but for someone like herself who now had pieced two and two together…he was definitely not the man he was a couple days prior to the incident. From what she had gathered around Gotham he still stalked the streets but Joker hadn’t been killed, nope he was still Bats and threw him in the asylum.
xxxShe had become lost in her thoughts before a soft mew caught her attention. Focusing back on the kid and smiling and petting the cat slightly, she hadn’t taken Bruce for a person who enjoyed animals. Then again he did have, well as of now four or so kids who could all be animal people. If anything the kid seemed to love cats, it would surely explain why he was hanging around her so much compared to his father or one of the others. ”What’s his name? Acting interested and being were two different things, that cat had genuinely caught her attention. The whole fact the kid didn’t seem the least bothered in them is was peaked her attention, she was not one for having a trainee but she sure as hell didn’t mind sitting down and talking to someone about cats.

Bruce nodded. "Ok then." He felt his self controle returning slowly. "We can look at the device and the gas and access what we are dealing with, perhaps reverse it soon." He looked back at Selina. she looked to be busy with damian and a cat. A small smile spread to his lips. She really did good with children, better than he had thought. He felt a warmth come over him and recognized that feeling. He had to push that aside quickly. If he returned everyone to normal, that included Damian, and Damian might not be as friendly toward Selina in his normal state. Bruce wondered if he should drag the boy away from her so he wouldn't break her heart when Damian was back to normal. He didn't want her to get too attached to a child that never was.
He sighed and turned to Jason. It was fine for now. "Lets go." He lead the way down to the cave.
Damian shrugged. "I don't know." He pouted. "You name it." He smiled at her wide. "I like cats.." He added quickly and lifted the cat in his arms and gave it a hug. The cat didn't seem fazed by this. It purred loudly and nuzzled Damian's face.
Tim got up and smiled. "Somthing tells me training would be a good idea." He looked at d**k still smiling. "I always wanted to use one of those pole, stick things."
'You mean a bowstaff?" d**k laughed. "I'm good at that but I prefer smaller weapons.. I think." He looked puzzled. It seemed his body knew what he liked weapon wise. He looked toward the door in time to see Bruce with Jason in toe heading to the cave. "C'mon gang." d**k walked past Stephany to the door and out. He followed Bruce and Jason to the cave, still holding the device.
d**k stood in awe at the cave. It had gotten bigger and the computer bank was larger and more advanced. d**k whistled. "Gee whizz Bats.." He smiled wide.
