With that, Robin took a step back and fell.
He had his eyes closed as he felt the wind hit his back and his body become something like weightless. His parents had taught him to land on your back was good for the net because then you weren't getting anything stuck in the wires.
At that moment he felt almost like he was back at the circus and he had tumbled off the high wire. The rush of falling combined with the feeling that he failed in some part…
Suddenly something stopped his descent. Something stuck to his stomach and winded around his waist before tugging him extremely fast back up towards Slade.
His eyes opened in shock and he saw the man looking at him from over the ledge. A long pink thing wrapped around him. It reminded him of Beast Boy when he tried to sneak the last piece of pizza. He would stick out his tongue in a Chameleon like way and snatch it.
He could feel his body bend unnaturally as he was pulled up so quickly. Slade's face was not smiling as he held a large device in his hands that the tongue-like thing extended from.
He was thrown against the edge and was forced to grab hold as the tongue thing let go. He tried to struggle and push away again as Slade grabbed the back of his suit and pulled him up.
"Clever Robin… But not clever enough…"
Robin tried to pull away, resorting to biting if he had to.
"I'm sorry my bird… But you're time ran out." Suddenly he felt a hand connect with the back of his neck strong enough to knock him out…
