It was a typical day the whole day for the Teen Titans. They were out on their usual patrol of Jump City. That's when the night seemed to get interesting. Robin's communicator went off. He quickly answered the call, and found Batman on the other side of the little screen that was on his wrist.

"Robin I have sent my apprentice to Jump City. Is she there yet?"

Batman had his usual cold demeanor, and just stared at Robin waiting for an answer.

"No, and why did you send her here? Don't you think that we are capable enough? Also, since when have you taken just a female as an apprentice?"

Robin was getting defensive.

"Robin…I sent her to you because I know that you and your team have more of the ability to train here and enhance her abilities that I have. She should have been there by now though. I can't get ahold of her through her com."

Batman's face was starting to show a small hint of worry. This was very unlike Batman, this fact alone seemed to scare Robin the most. Robin's attitude seemed to change immediately.

"Titans we have a situation. We have a missing hero."

Robin's voice called out over them all, which caused them all to stop where they were.

"What does she look like, and what is her name?"

"She goes by Hummingbird, and she's about the size of Robin. She has teal hair, she is very hard to miss."

Batman rambled off her description, and then they all sprang into action. They were starting to search for the missing girl.

~With Hummingbird~

It didn't take me long to get into the city. I can fly and I also have super speed. I decided that I should take a small look around what I was supposed to be protecting until further notice. I didn't even understand why Batman would want to send me here. The city was a lot smaller than Gotham. What did they have to protect this city from exactly?

I flew over most of the town before I saw an old lady being robbed. This was typical crime that I had figured to see almost anywhere. I swooped down and scared off the man that was trying to rob the seemingly defenseless old woman. I turned back to face her only to be hit repeatedly by her purse.

"Really?! What do you even have in that thing? Bricks?!"

I growled at her before flying away. I needed to get away from the crazy lady. I flew to a nearby roof that was unoccupied.

"Gosh, what was wrong with her?"

I asked out loud to no one in particular.

"People don't seem to get kindness very well."

A voice called out behind me. I nearly jumped out of my skin, no one has ever snuck up on me before. I have another power that is a type of echolocation, and just a few seconds ago there was no one on this roof.

"Who are you?"

I demanded to know who the man was.

"Why darling, you must be new here. My name is Slade."

His voice was enough to send shivers down my spine, and they weren't the good type of shivers.

"What do you want?"

I demanded once again.

"I want you my dear little girl. You are Batman's apprentice, and I want to know why."

His answer was enough to send me over the edge. What was with everyone saying that I was his apprentice, I was his partner anyways.

"That's enough! What even remotely makes you think that I would go with you?"

I nearly sneered at him, before letting out an annoyed chuckle. The wind around me was doing the strange thing that normally happened whenever I got upset over something. It almost seemed to be trembling in rage.

"But darling, you don't have a choice in the matter."

I didn't have any time to process what was happening before he rushed at me. I tried to move out of the way, and I thought that I had succeeded with ease. I thought completely wrong. He managed to get some sort of device around my ankle that sent jolts through my body. I was forced to the ground at the first sudden jolt, but I was ready for the others. I took out the Katana that was on my side in its sheath, and quickly removed the device.

"I give you and Bats credit, you are the first that has ever done that."

He was complementing me, but I spat at his feet. I didn't need his complements. Frankly they were getting on my last nerve. I ran at him, katana in hand, only to have a sudden impact hit my front. The air seemed to rush out of my lungs as I fell to my knees.

"H-How did y-you do that?"

I was grasping my stomach in pain. I knew for a fact that I was going as fast as my body would let me go.

"You're still too slow for me."

His words seemed to be so far away with me, and if it wasn't for the fact that my eyes were open I wouldn't have known better. I tried to back away from him on my hands. The pain seemed to just spread through my body worse when I tried to move, he did something.

"Darling, I only broke five of your ribs."

He laughed at me, and I was clearly not amused. He was getting ready to grab me, he had already started to lean over and had an arm reached out. My vision was wavering in and out at that point. I had closed my eyes and waited for him to grab me.

I heard a loud 'thud' in front of me, so I slowly opened my eyes to see that the Slade guy was now on the ground. There was someone standing over top of me. It took a moment for my eyes to focus enough to see who my savior was. It was none other than the boy wonder, Robin.

"Are you Hummingbird?"

His voice was surprisingly deep for someone his size. I nodded in response, wincing slightly. Robin turned back to face Slade only to find that he was gone.

"So you must be Robin. I'm Hummingbird! Batman sent me here, but I didn't expect someone to know me or attack me for that matter."

I cracked a smile at him trying to stand, but failing miserably.

"Whoa there. You're injured, and yeah I'm Robin. What gave it away, the outfit? So you're Batman's new Sidekick?"

Robin laughed and smirked as he helped me up onto my feet slightly.

"I would rather have partner, but yeah. That's me."

I tried my hardest to steady myself not to look weak in front of my new leader.

"Are you alright? You look kind of pale."

"Well let's see. I have been beaten by an old lady with her purse that I swear was full of bricks. Then I was attacked by this Slade guy, and he said something about breaking at least five of my ribs."

I started rambling off some of the things that have happened to me since I got into the city. He was staring at me like I had just grown two more heads.

"Beaten by an old lady with her purse…..You know what never mind about that I don't want to know."

He was clearly amused by what all I was telling him.

"Titan's target found, proceed to head back to the tower. I will be there soon with Hummingbird."

I watched as he spoke into his little wrist com. I went to take a step towards him but found that my legs had another plan. I fell to the ground rather hard.

"Hum!"

Robin was already helping me off the ground. He held me in his lap, but my arms and legs didn't seem to want to work with me. My vison had started to get black specs in it once again. This time the specs covered my whole vision. Everything turned completely black.

~Robin's Point of View~

Slade was attacking a girl whenever I showed up at the scene. I just assumed that it was Hummingbird by her outfit. Her long teal hair was cascaded around her face. She only had a one eyed mask on her face. I saw as she went to charge at Slade with speeds that was hard to imagine, she quickly dropped the weapon that she had in her hands. She fell to her knees quickly after the weapon left her fingers.

That was my queue to take off running. He was about ready to grab her when I managed to get my foot to connect with the side of his face. I looked back at the girl, she seemed to focus on me. I turned back to where Slade was previously standing, only to find that he had disappeared. I decided not to follow him.

I turned back to the girl that was before me. This was someone that Batman actually chose to trust. I then quickly remembered that the others were out still looking for her. I called them all over the com. and told them to go back to the tower. I was going to be there shortly. I helped the girl get up, and turned my back to her for a second again.

I heard a loud 'thud' behind me. I quickly turned around to see Hummingbird on the ground again.

"Hum!"

I cried out and ran over to her. I tried to help her up, but she fell unconscious in my arms. I picked her up bridal style before jumping back to the spot where I had parked my R-Cycle. I gently placed her in front of me, where I was sure that she wouldn't fall off on the way back to the tower.

~Time Skip~

I pulled into the tower, and quickly made my way to the infirmary wing of the tower.

"Yo dude, what happened to her?"

The green boy known as BeastBoy said behind me. All the others were in the room as well, they seemed to all follow me to the infirmary.

"Slade attacked her. This is Hummingbird. She said something about having five broke ribs. Raven can you tell if she will be alright?"

The girl known as Raven nodded and proceeded to stand next to the new girl.

"She will be fine. I believe that she just fainted due to exhaustion, and the ribs will heal in time but they will be a bit sore."

"Okay, let's leave her fest for a bit."

I left the room, the others trailing behind me. We all made out way over to the living room. BeastBoy and Cyborg went back to their video game that they were playing. Starfire went to make some weird alien concoction in the kitchen. Raven went back to meditating. I went back to thinking of how Hum was Batman's sidekick now.

"What are you thinking about man?" Cyborg came up and placed a hand on my shoulde.

"Why Batman would send her here?"

"Maybe he is starting to see you more as an equal than a sidekick."

"I need to tell Batman that she is here now."

I left the room without another word, and made my way back to my room and got on the computer.

"Bruce, Hum got attacked, but she is here now. She is resting in the infirmary now."

"Dick, I need to warn you. She seems to be affiliated with powers of wind, but she can't control them yet. I sent her there because I believe that you and your team can help her learn."

"Is there anything you can tell me about her past?"

"She will have to explain that to you."

The transmission ended as soon as he answered the question. I still didn't understand why he wouldn't just tell me. I made my way back to the infirmary to find an empty bed. I quickly ran into the room to investigate, only to be tackled to the ground.

"Oh it's you! Hehe. Sorry about that. I didn't know where I was when I woke up."

She got off of me, and extended me her hand. I took it and got up.

"This is the Titan tower. Here let's go meet the others."

I lead her down the hall. She was floating down the hall behind me quietly. I had to look over my shoulder to make sure that she was even there occasionally. My face flushed again.

'Man she was really pretty! Wait what am I thinking? I need to know this off, Batman gave me a mission.'

I thought to myself before opening the door to the living room.
