Preface
X's POV
I'm sorry, little brother. I swore that I'd protect you, keep you safe, and now I'm the one hurting you. I wish I could tell you but you're too stubborn and angry and hurt to listen. Still I wish you would. I don't want to work for Slade, don't want to hurt you, but I have to. Hurting you is the only way to keep you safe. Oh, the irony. I was your hero and I let you down, so, little brother, I'm sorry.
Robin's POV
I'm sorry, big brother. I swore that I'd never fight you, in a way to hurt you at least, and here I am doing just that throwing punch after punch. I wish I could talk to you but my friends are here and I know you wouldn't listen to me anyway. Still, I can hope, can't I? I don't want to fight you. I want to stop and just...cry in joy, fear, anger, hurt, and sadness. I want to be a family again, brothers, like before mom and dad died. I called myself Robin for them, did you know that? Did you know that I called myself Red X in honor of you? I hope you did. You were and still remain my hero. You got away again, for that I'll never be sorry, but when next time comes and we have to fight again, for that I'll always be sorry. I hope you're okay, big brother, and that one day we'll be a family again.
