Every once in a while, Dick Grayson, aka Robin, would almost forget where he came from before the endless experiments and pain. Then, he'd go back to clinging to his past as a way to survive.

He was a smart boy. He knew by now that the only reason Batman hadn't rescued him was because he was somewhere out of Batman's reach. He had figured out that he was in an entirely different dimension. Somewhere where Batman didn't exist and the Justice League was evil.

Still, he prayed that someday he would be rescued, and that someday the pain would end.

All he could do was attempt to last long enough for that day to come.


"I can't believe it! I can't believe you're giving up the search for Robin!" Wally West, aka Kid Flash, shouted.

"Wally, calm down." Barry Allen, Wally's uncle, the Flash, said.

"And you're forcing Batman to go on other missions so that he doesn't spend his time searching for his missing kid?! Unbelievable!" Wally continued.

"Wally, there's not much we can do. We've tried everything. Robin's nowhere to be found." Artemis Crock, Wally's girlfriend, attempted.

"You know what?! If you're not going to search for him, I will! And the Justice League can't stop me, because I QUIT!"

The gathered heroes, including Barry, Artemis, and the entire Young Justice team, stared as Wally stormed out via Zeta Tube.

"He doesn't mean that. I'll talk some sense into him." Artemis offered.

Barry hummed in worry. Something told him that Wally meant exactly what he said, and that they wouldn't see him again for a long time.


Wally watched through the security cameras as his suspects chatted. Before Dick had disappeared, he had taught Wally a thing or two about hacking, and Wally had greatly improved due to the necessity to use that skill. It had been two months since he quit the team to search for Dick and he felt that this was the closest he'd gotten to real suspects.

He stiffened as the conversation changed to what he was hoping to hear.

"I can't believe Batman hasn't found out what we did to his kid yet! I mean, we covered our tracks well, but not that well!"

"Well, we've moved location several times since we sent the kid into that other dimension. So even if he managed to track us to where we threw the kid through the portal, he wouldn't be able to find us now."

"Hush. You never know what could happen. Someone could be watching us right now."

"Don't worry, Miguel. The device is locked up in the vault and well guarded. Even if someone is watching, they can't do anything about it and they certainly can't get the kid back."

Wally smirked and pulled up footage of a vault on the other side of the building from where his suspects were. He also pulled up a map of the building. "Challenge accepted."

He raced through the building and easily took out the guards in front of the vault. There, he hacked the lock and broke in. The alarm went off, but it didn't matter. There was only one device in the vault. Wally snatched it and scrammed. He was gone by the time the criminals reached the vault.

A good few miles away, Wally looked the device over. It seemed simple enough to work. However, it seemed you were only able to jump in one direction.

Wally huffed. He could either use the device and jump into the other dimension to find Dick, and potentially have a long journey home, or he could return to his family in failure.

"I'm too close to give up now." He mumbled to himself. "I hope I don't regret this. Next dimension, here I come."

He activated the device and a portal opened in front of him. Taking a deep breath, he jumped... and tumbled into the next dimension.


Dick was having trouble breathing. Nine months as Bullet's test subject had really taken a toll on him. He forced himself to breathe in and out over and over again. He was not going to give up. He would not let himself die. He was going to survive. He had to.

The cell door opened. No, please, not now. He had to pull himself together before any more experiments.

"Yes. I found another one." The voice was familiar. Almost like his Mamica's...

No. His Mamica was dead. If he was hearing her voice, did that mean he was dead too?

"All right. Be there soon." Dick was able to make out a blurry figure. She looked like his Mamica too… "Hang in there, Kid. We're getting you out of here."

Breathing, which had already been difficult for Dick, became even more difficult as the woman picked him up.

"Hang in there." His Mamica - no. Not his Mamica. His Mamica was dead. - told him.

Things got chaotic for a bit. It seemed that Woman-who-looked-like-his-Mamica was fighting someone. It briefly crossed his mind that he was possibly being rescued. But that thought didn't last long as breathing got still more difficult for him and he had to focus all his mental ability on making sure he didn't stop breathing.

He hung on the brink of death for a while, almost an hour, before his mind suddenly blanked out.

"He's not breathing!"


Wally wandered around the other dimension for a while, seeing what he could find out about this place. He made sure to keep a hood over his head to conceal his identity. Didn't want to be mistaken for his counterpart if he had a counterpart here. He'd made sure to close the portal behind him, so no one could go into his world without him. The device was safely hidden at the bottom of his bag.

No one paid him much attention unless he spoke to them, and he only spoke to someone every once in a while.

By drinking in the sights and speaking with several citizens, Wally managed to learn a lot about the world he'd landed in. First off, the people that belonged to the 'Justice League' in his dimension were either dead, never born, or part of the 'Lords of Divine Justice' in this dimension. Uncle Barry's counterpart was known as Bullet and was part of the Lords of Divine Justice; most of his other loved ones were either off radar or never born; and he didn't bother asking about his friends.

Nobody had seen the Dick from his dimension, but Wally had a general theory about what might've happened to him from what he'd learned about the dimension: there was a good chance he was kidnapped to be a test subject for Bullet.

The thought gave him the chills and he prayed that he wasn't too late, that he could still find and rescue Dick. First things first, he had to find someone to help him. There was no way he could possibly go up against the Lords of Divine Justice to rescue Dick on his own.

There were rumors of a resistance. Wally would have to find them. No matter what happened, they would be a great asset while he was in this dimension, so he'd better start looking.
