#dimension crossover

[Master list]

[Part 1] >> [Part 2]

Hello! So after reading Wash-Up Celebrity Bruce, I got like, hooked on it like a fish and never threw it back to the water and got to consume it because I love this story so much and thank you @ultraviolettefan for bringing this story to the world and now I can't stop thinking about the crossover like every typical dimensions cross—

Freaking recommend it to read. So now we have WUC!Batfamily meets the OG Batfamily but I should tell you guys that I spend too much time on fanon instead of canon. My head goes brrr— and I will sort it in colour so you won't be confused. Again, it's going to be like ooc, I'm sorry. And this is during part 4, where Bruce and Cassandra have to find the kids while they are exploring in the 'cave'.

Update: I just fucking read the part 5.

Another update: So uh guys... I am such an idiot not to know fruit bats have mega size. I didn't know that because I envisioned it's a small fruit bat at UV part 4 post. I googled it already and fruit bats came from many sizes (there are big and small sizes) so I felt relief from that. Hopefully there is no misunderstanding haha. I'm sorry.

Note: I will take a criticism comment as my way to improve for the next part. And English is not my first language and I'm trying. My English is not very...expansive.

• WUC! Bruce & Batkids

• OG Bruce & Batkids

While Bruce is spending time with Cass, the boys discover a cave and go in to explore out of curiosity. Little did they know, something happened to the cave that made them feel dizzy the moment they stepped in. It's like...the kind that makes them feel like a sense of deja vu but it's not, they never been here before.

As they kept exploring, so far behind the entrance, something changed in this cave.

It's dim and getting darker the moment they travel so far as there is no light above. Except they saw some fruit bats. Damian squealed at the sight and pointed them out. Jumping in excitement, he wanted to get closer. Dick stopped his little brother from getting further away from his sight. How will he explain to mom if he lost Damian during cave exploration.

Maybe they should have brought flashlight. Speaking of flashlight, there's a light from another cave entrance in front of them. A tunnel. Hmm... They don't know the feeling about it but it looks dangerous. They rather not get lost with no supplies.

Tim, gulp: "Uhh... Aren't we going too far? We should head back.."

Dick: "Yeah.. you're right. I think we traveled enough. Come on, let's go back before mom gets worried."

The boys turned and headed back where they came in. Suddenly, they were shocked to see the entrance was nowhere to be found as if it was never there. Jason felt uneasy because he knows it was there because he is the last person to go in the cave.

Jason, confused: "Wait wait wait- didn't we just walk from that entrance like 5 minutes ago!?"

Dick, being the oldest and needed to think a way out: "Well we have to find a way to... Wait where's Damian??"

The three looked around, no Damian on their sight. Dick panicked as he told the others to stay where they are and find Damian before he gets lost. Dick grabs a dead branch on the ground just in case they encounter something dangerous.

Dick: "Stay here, I'll go find Damian!"

Tim, followed him: "Wait! Can't we just go together??"

Jason hesitantly looks at the entrance that suspiciously became a wall then back to them as they are getting far from him.

Jason, quickly ran towards them: "Wait guys! Wait for me!!"

2 minutes ago.

Damian wandered aimlessly in the area where there were lots of fruit bats above him. Not knowing his two brothers and a new friend(?) trying to look for him. One of the fruit bats flies down as he giggles and tries to capture it.

Damian, giggling: "Hehe Batsy!"

Damian ran after it and successfully caught the fruit bat (which was a surprise for his toddling height), the bat stared in confusion and it made a clicking sound. He smiled, he can't wait to show his mama!

Damian, turn around to show it: "Look! I caught the—.."

He looked around and saw no one with him. He whimper.

Damian, hug the fruit bat: "Jay Jay? Didi..?"

Damian looked around, left to right as he realized he walked far from them and got lost. His eyes glint with tears in fear.

Damian, shouted through the cave: "JAY JAY! DIDI!!"

Nothing.

So he started walking, he doesn't know which direction but it's the only way to find out. But there's a tunnel that has some light shines in the distance. COULD IT BE THE EXIT?! So he ran towards the path as his footprints created a dent to the ground.

The bat keeps squeaking and clicking but it doesn't seem to bite, just bark. It gives up and lets the toddler make his way.

While Damian reaches the exit, he notices the light becomes...blue? Moreover, to his disappointment, it's not the exit. It's another cave to another big cave. However, something is different from the former.

The toddler looked up as he witnessed the cave getting bigger, spacious; more like a bit advanced and quiet... Is that humming? Something's humming!! He saw some kind of blue line lights. Beautiful. There is some kind of large platform... He thinks he is somewhere below.

Damian, struck in awe: "Wa..."

Fruit bat, mouth gap: *Squeak*

Damian looked around and found the stairs. He reached his way up and saw something cool on the way. There are cars, some gadgets and he saw...something he doesn't know— is that a giant dinosaur?!? (I don't know about the bat cave diagram so I just watched Batwheels and happened to get some tours from the episodes)

Furthermore, he quickly waddles his way and examines the dino statue. Is this...an underground museum mama had?? Why didn't he talk about this?!

Damian, petting the fruit bat: "Look batty! A dino!"

"Damian?"

He heard someone call him and turned to look at...

Damian, tilt head, smiled and showed the fruit bat like an achievement badge: "Mama? MAMA LOOK I GOT A BAT!"

Bruce is shocked, not only he called him 'Mama' but HOW DID HE BECAME A TODDLER?!? Wait, Damian just went out to patrol with Dick. Wait...did they have a magic encounter incident?? Wait where's Dick?! He should have been back if Damian's here.

Bruce, internally panic and trying to appear calm: "Oracle, I need an update on Nightwing and Robin."

Bruce quickly walks up to little Damian, who is confused including the fruit bat, and carries him to his arms. Checking to see if there's any injury or something gone wrong in patrol. He stared at the fruit bat that stared at him.

Damian, let Bruce carry him: "Mama, what is oracle?"

Bruce: "What? Oh Habibi, let go of the fruit bat, you're going to hurt its wings."

Damian whined but before he could let it go, the computer dings, he walk to the computer when

Oracle responds.

Oracle: "They're still on a stakeout. Vitals are okay. Why? What happened?"

Bruce tilted his head and looked back at Damian who is in HIS arms, whining about letting go of the bat that he just caught and tears swelling up his eyes. Bruce quickly soothes his back.

Damian: "Do I have to?"

Oh my gosh, he is so cute. Bruce wishes he could take a picture but this is important and this needs to be solved now. And if Damian is out then how did this Damian get here. And so young.

Oracle: "...Is that a kid? Wait B—"

Welp. Time for a meeting.

Bruce, clear throat: "We have a situation. Call the others to come back after they finish their patrol."

Barbara didn't try to ask because she knows it's going to be revealed anyways (she hacked the cameras). So she give him an okay and tell the others.

Bruce looks at the toddler that gives him a docile, boba eyes but Bruce is already immune... yeah he folds but this bat gotta go. He gives him a look. Damian huffed and let go of the bat as it flew away, giving a wave of goodbye.

Damian, giving himself distance to look at his 'Mama' better, holding his shoulders for balance: "Mama, you look different."

Bruce can't question the 'Mama' thing but he can ask this. He put his hand on Damian's back so he won't fall off.

Bruce: "What do you mean?"

Damian, look down: "You wear a suit. And you look old."

Bruce stopped himself from flinching, he expected that from his children but not this one. But it does confirm, through every possibility and theories in his head, this is...dimension incident.

While Bruce and Damian are having their time. Dick, Jason and Tim are still on the other side of the cave, trying to find Damian. They would be losing their minds if they didn't discover Damian's footprints and considering he loves animals, the fruit bats above are their first step. So it's a win-win.

Dick, points the middle entrance out of three tunnels with a dead branch: "He went that way."

The footprints show the toddler went through the tunnel where they can see the light in the distance. Exit?

Jason: "Yeah, I'm not going. Haha.. you know there is no way that's what an exit looks like. Suspiscious, am I right?"

Tim: "But Damian could be in there."

Dick: "Then that means he's not so far from us."

Dick walks toward the tunnel entrance, Damian's footprints only shows one way, it means he didn't turn back.

Dick, brows furrowed: "Look we gotta get him before mum gets worried. All of us. He could notice we're gone and be looking for us right now. The plan is simple, we get Damian and we find our way back to get out of this cave."

Jason, sigh: "Yeah good point."

Tim, nodded, determined: "We should go now."

The trio went in the tunnel and noticed something strange as if it was forming something...larger? And the light is getting brighter and blue-ish. Wait what? Blue?

Finally, they got through the tunnel and saw ...another cave. Great.

Jason: "I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT'S ANOTHER CAVE ENTRANCE! I KNEW IT"

Jason: "Knew what kid?"

The boys turn around and froze as they stared at the giant man with a red helmet- IS THAT GUNS?? OH MY GOSH HE HAD GUNS!!!

So they panic.

"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

Jason, hands out, take a few steps forward,: "Woah- holy shit! Chill out!"

"...oys"

Dick, without thinking, letting out a battle cry to swing the big dead branch, aiming for the man's waist. However, the man dodged and grabbed the branch away from the kid's hands and grip the boy's wrist. Dick wriggled his wrist to get out of the older's grip.

Dick: "LET ME GO!! STRANGER DANGER!X2"

Jason & Tim: "DICK!!"

"Boys??"

Jason's roundhouse kicks the man's calf, making the man hiss and nearly bend forward.

Jason: "The fuck!?"

"Boys?"

Jason and Tim pounce like a tiger hunts their prey. Tim climbs on Jason's back to cover his helmet- whatever it was that he assumed where his sight was. Jason punch/jab where the opening is.

"Stop it!"

Dick already learns self defense and uses his acrobatic skill to swing himself up, using his weight on Jason's arms and strangle the man's neck by using his legs. A headlock technique. Jason tries to stay upright in balance, trying not to fall by this children's battle. He cussed.

"Boys?? Stop!"

Jason: "SHIT THIS KIDS ARE A NIGHTMARE!! HELP-"

"BOYS! STOP THIS AT ONCE!!" The familiar voice finally shouted through their ears to get their attention.

They froze and looked up except for Jason who got covered by Tim's hand and tried to move his head..

Bruce (in an inner black outfit) with Damian in his arms, who seem to be melted in Mama's arms and about to sleep, stared at the scene with Dick, Damian, Cass, Steph, Duke and Tim (phone in hands, recording) trying to stifle their laughs and/or some concern looks, standing on either Bruce's side.

It took them a full minute to recover from it. Jason tried to flap his arms to get rid of Dick but he got down and then the next thing that happened wasn't what they expected.

Dick & Jason, run to him and hug his waist: "MAMA!!"

Tim, joins in: "Ma- Bruce! Sir-"

Bruce huff, looks down at them, ruffling their hairs with his free hand. The kids tighten their hugs.

Dick:

Jason:

Tim:

Damian:

Cass:

Steph:

Duke:

All except Bruce & the kids: "What?"

[Part 2] << [Part 3] >> [Part 4]

@ultraviolettefan Thanks for the help!

Warning: OOC/Most likely fanon interaction with canon but I only know little about canon because I never had a comic before. Just media.

Bruce stared at Alfred, he didn't look any different. Should he be worried?

Wait a minute...

He quickly composed himself, straightened his shirt and gripped his cane to stand straight. He cleared his throat. Realize that his blind anger has control him. Bruce can't believe he did that in front of his kids. He's afraid that they will mirror his behaviour. Almost like typical rude socialites treat their servants. Nope! No.

That would be bad parenting.

He may not be smart but he is not stupid. Somehow they could be in another universe and he can't assume this is his Alfred after all. That is on him for being rude to the butler.

Bruce waved dismissively Alfred's offer to help with a apologetic smile.

Bruce chuckled: "-Ahem- haha no, thank you. We're good but uh...I'm sorry, where are we?"

The kids look up in confusion by the rapid change of personality.

Duke, raise brow in question: "In the cave?"

Bruce: "Yes I do know that but— (look around) Is that a f— (glance at his kids) is that a dinosaur??"

Bruce asked, carefully not to use inappropriate words in front of his kids. He points the giant dino statue in question. Including other giant stuff he sees.

Bruce takes his chances to answer: "Yes, it is... And you are in the Batcave."

Bruce took one look at unmask Bruce's bat outfit and gave incredulous look: "Why are you dressed as a bat? What is wrong with you?"

"Kkh- Pft—"

Bruce deadpanned as he heard snorts and giggles behind him. Jason burst in laughter, holding something nearby for dear life. Tim felt like he got hit by a joker gas (again).

Dick turns his face away to cover up his grin while Stephanie just gives an approval applause to Bruce. Duke and Cassandra contained their laugh.

Damian didn't join in but part of him did. He can't help but feel red in embarrassment because he used to wish to wear the cowl before. Alfred just gives a huff of amused.

Barbara sips her tea as she watches it in video-recorded camera. Oh-ho-ho.. he will never hear the end of this.

The kids behind Bruce join in, snickered. Dick took a mental note 'no furry suit' in the future.

Bruce sighed and answered anyways: "To scare the criminals. Now moving on... I'm gonna be straight for this. (Me: no you're not) Have you ever travel anywhere? What did you do during that?"

Bruce stiffened. This isn't for the kids to hear. His smile tightened. Bruce noticed that including Cass.

Bruce: "Would you lead us to the manor? It's quite uncomfortable to discuss."

.

.

.

As soon as they got out of the cave. The kids joined with Alfred and the others while Bruce stayed behind to talk to him. Bruce blinked, looked at the grandfather clock.

Bruce: "Oh. I didn't know you would use this passage. That's... Huh."

Bruce closes the grandfather clock and changes the time: "Well, it is very convenient because it is the perfect hiding spot."

Bruce watches him change the clock's hands: "So you use a code to get in. May I know what code you choose?"

Bruce stayed silent as he stared at the clock. He sighed heavily.

Bruce: "The time of our parents' death."

He said in sorrow before turning to him. Bruce hitched then composed himself and nodded slowly.

Bruce: "I see..."

Bruce: "Let's go somewhere private. I'll have Alfred send in the refreshment."

Bruce raised a knowing brow: "And the kids shall be in the play room."

Both of them laughed as they knew when they needed a break from children. However, they knew it wouldn't last long.

.

.

.

In the living room.

(I gave up on researching the Wayne Manor floor plan...)

Both of Bruce-s barely get to sip their drinks before the door burst open. Bruce's cane fell from how hard the door slammed to the wall. They both subtly winced, hopefully there's no dent on the wall but they have no time to recover it.

Jason jumps to hug Bruce's waist: "Mama! Dick doesn't want to share a controller with me!"

Dick following behind him: "You will get your turn when I'm finished with it! Plus there's multiple other controllers- why do you want this??"

Jason: "Because the design is cool."

Duke, who is behind them, held other game controllers for Jason to play but froze because it was his custom-made (using acrylics markers he borrowed from Damian's) game controller they were fighting for.

Duke: "Really?"

Bruce looked at Bruce and awkwardly chuckled: "Hehe.. Hold on."

Bruce nodded and waved dismissively: "Please, be my guest."

Bruce sighs through his nose: "Jason. You can wait your turn when Dick is done playing. There's no need to fight. Dick, are you willing to give him after you're done?"

Dick nodded. Jason felt embarrassed as he buried his face on his Mama'a chest.

Bruce brush Jason's hair: "Now go apologize to your brother and go play with the others. Mama wants talk to... Bruce (well that is weird), okay?"

Jason slowly let go and nodded: "Okay..."

Bruce gave him a kiss on the forehead to make him feel nothing to worry about. Jason went to Dick and apologized. Then Dick forgave him with a smile as they headed to the playroom. Duke gave an apologetic look before closing the door to accompany them.

Bruce turned to him, who stared at the door with a distant look.

Bruce glanced at the door then Bruce: "What's wrong?"

Bruce: "Huh? Oh uh- does your kids always..."

Bruce: "Oh haha. Sorry, they are very well-behaved. It's a little unsettling to...you know"

Bruce vaguely wave around to imply about dimension cross thingy and Bruce immediately understand.

Bruce: "First time?"

Bruce: "Honestly, yes. You?"

Bruce: "Well can't say the same thing."

They both laughed. They sighed, it looks like their conversation has warm-up.

Time to get to the point.

Bruce started first in question: "We both know this would be a sensitive topic but I need to know what's going on in yours."

Bruce: "What are you gonna do when you know-"

Bruce: "Your earth? Might document it. Likely archived it."

Bruce stared at him. He thinks about his past experience. Wondering where to start. Is their life between him and Bruce different? Heh...

Bruce smiled: "Well, if it's to answer your question and the fact you're in a 'bat' suit before..."

Bruce blinked. He continued to speak.

Bruce: "From what I can tell our lives, one way or another, have started out the same (the death of our parents & children adoptions) but took....very different turns."

He doesn't wanna talk about his past addictions. However, Bruce noticed that because he also used to struggle with severe, wild grief after his parents died. He did develop an obsession with physical fighting. He spent his youth traveling the world to study martial arts and fighting street criminals to process his intense rage and pain.

But something in him said otherwise.

Bruce can try to ask what he meant, maybe try to probe but he remains silent, uncomfortable talk about it.

Signalling to Bruce that that's all the information he will gain out of him.

He subtly looks at his half-revealed wrist from the cuff that slid almost slightly. His skin has faint marks of scars injection and scabs.

Ah...

Bruce took one look then steered the conversation: "It seems you had Damian young."

He can see that this Bruce is still pretty young. Bruce will raise a brow and nod.

Bruce: "You met Talia earlier than I did."

Bruce looked up at him: "I... Did."

Bruce: "And you're....able to raise him? On your own?"

Bruce studied him while Bruce's intelligence comes from information available to him and pattern recognition, Bruce is more instinctual. So he notices the bit of sadness and longing in Bruce and felt bad.

Bruce: "You probably already know this, but... I learned that Talia was part of some... League? It didn't sit right with me so I..."

Bruce looks away, kind of ashamed but not really: "took Damian. And we left. And now we're here. I promised my boy, I'd give him a normal life. That's what I'm doing."

Bruce felt a pang in his chest that Bruce got to spend time with Damian, not after ten years in secret but as baby Damian that he openly loved and raised him at such a young age...

There's this little part of him thinking: 'Damn, I would have done the same thing if Talia didn't drug me and left then told me I had a son after ten years.'—

Bruce gave a smile: "Good for you."

Bruce returned a smile too. They finally have the ease to have a conversation about how they both are doing with a little life comparison and their children.

Speaking of children.

.

.

.

In the playroom. (Again. Gave up the research floor plan.)

Dick: "Jay! Come on, they're about to catch up!"

Jason aggressively tapping the buttons: "I'm trying!!"

Jason finally got the controller (Duke's controller) he wanted while Dick cheered him up to beat Duke and Jason. They took turns for 1v1.

Jason: "Hah! Nice try kid. Aaand BOOOM!"

Duke hype up: "Yo! Yo! YOOOOOOO!!!! You get the lead bro!"

Jason and Dick groans, slump in defeat. Then they decided to team up with a 2v2 player for the next round.

Dick watched them playing Mario Kart while eating cookies that Alfred made for them all.

Damian didn't give any interest in them playing games so he focused on drawing which is exceptional (still child skills) despite his age and Damian joins him and proudly guides his art skills. Stephanie tried to keep up and failed miserably as she threw another piece of paper in the pile of trash.

Cassandra and Tim decided to talk to their tiny version of Cass and Tim with Barbara who happened to join physically without using security cameras because why not.

Alfred sat beside Dick with his earl grey tea to ensure the kids are having fun. The corner of his mouth tilts slightly.

Damian showed Damian the art of his muse: "What do you think?"

Damian stared, raised brow: "Is that fa— I mean, your mother?"

Damian grin proudly: "Yeah!!"

Stephanie took a peak and was astonished by his good-looking art despite his young age.

Stephanie decided to praise him: "Wow Dammy! That portrait looks good. You draw your mama so beautiful."

He giggled. Damian distantly stared at his other version of him and thought deeply.

Is that what he will become if he hasn't been in the League since birth...? Instead of having expectations and burdened by the weight on his shoulder to become what he supposed to be by his grandfather vision. To think that Damian can smile without a care in the world makes him feel...annoyed? What?? No.

Okay no. Sure, he INTERNALLY admitted he felt the envy and jealousy from the life Damian had including others. But he can't resent them for something he can't have. But at least Damian got something he already got.

A loving family who accept him despite his 'I am the blood son' and all the things he did ever since he arrived in Gotham.

Yeah... He got a bit humbled and more matured for that but he is still the blood son. He grew out of the bat mantle thing when he started to seek his own path. Thankfully, his father supports that.

Watching little Damian laugh and smile naively without fearing the world will hurt him makes him smile with warmth expression.

(Damian...you're not gonna be happy when you find out later.)

Steph noticed and nudged his shoulder with a teasing smile. He stopped immediately and huffed in annoyance. Steph just chuckled and planned on telling others later.

.

.

.

Back to the living room with two Bruce.

Bruce: "May I know who will send us back? And when?"

Bruce: "Zatanna will be here soon. She's a sorceress and one of our trusted allies."

Bruce: "Oh. I see."

. . .

Bruce blinked: "What do you mean 'one of our trust allies' ?"
