Here it is guys! Another fanfic as promised! Enjoy! ;)
Chapter 1-
"Guy's night!" Kid Flash shouted. He was running back and forth from the kitchen to the training room eating food and talking too quickly for anyone to understand. The League was letting the team take a break and Miss Martin and Artemis were having a sleep over at Artemis's apartment, leaving the cave to the boys.
Batman and the Flash were standing in the corner.
"Why did we leave the soda in the fridge where he could get it?" Batman scowled at his friend.
"Oh, come on Bats. Let him have his fun. We never let them have the cave to themselves." Flash countered with his ever- present smile on his face. Batman and the Flash turned to see the sugar happy Kid run in circles until he crashed into Robin, effectively knocking them both to the ground. Robin punched Kid Flash in the arm. They both started laughing.
"I think I know why we never did." Batman sighed.
Conner, Kaldur, Kid and Robin watched as the two Leaguers zeta tubed away.
"Alright! Let's get this party started!" Kid shouted, throwing his hands in the air. Conner rolled his eyes.
"Uh, Wally?" Robin asked.
"What?"
"Do you want to stay in uniform all night?" Wally looked down at his yellow and red suit. "Oh… Be right back!" He zoomed away in a quick blur and was back just as fast in jeans and a t-shirt. "Okay guys! The League promised they wouldn't contact us till the morning so we have all night to ourselves!" Kaldur sighed behind him.
"We can not trash the cave. It is still M' gann and Conner's home." Conner huffed. "It's not much of one." Kaldur shook his head.
"Even so…" Kaldur persisted with a look of irritation on his face. Robin stepped into the middle of their discussion. He was wearing a short sleeved gray hoodie with jeans and dark sun glasses.
"Guys, we can watch a movie while getting hyped up on sugar and then play video games until some ungodly hour of the morning. How does that sound?" Conner and Kaldur nodded, their dark moods lifting.
"But I wanted to party!" Wally pouted at his friend. Robin smiled.
"Afraid I'll crush you again?"
"As if!" Wally shouted back, his smile returning. All four of them started to walk to the T.V room when Conner abruptly stopped, puzzlement on his face.
"What is it?" Kaldur asked, knitting his eye brows. Robin and Wally kept moving down the hall talking about videogames.
"I hear… beeping." Conner said, tilting his head to the side. "Over by the wall. It's faint but I can still pick it up."
Beeping. Kaldur thought. Then he realized there could only be one thing beeping in the wall.
"Robin, Kid! MOVE!" He shouted. Kid reacted first. Grabbing Robin's arm, he pulled him away from the wall in a super sprint. One second later, the stone wall exploded into a cloud of dust.
Kaldur and Conner were pushed back by the blast and fell to the floor near Wally and Robin. Conner got up and hefted Kaldur to his feet. The newly created hole in the wall led to the outside of the cave and darkened light from the fading sun poured in. They heard foot steps. A man in a dark blue and orange suit walked through. A long sword was strapped to his back. He wore a mask that was black on one side and orange on the other. There was only one eye hole on the orange side. Robin sucked in a sharp breath.
"Not him…" He took a step back. Kaldur eyed his friend with confusion. He couldn't remember the last time Robin had looked nervous.
The strange man walked farther into the cave and Conner stepped forward.
"Who are you and what do you want?" He demanded, the harshness in his voice apparent. The man looked at the boys and started to chuckle. "I came here for one of you, actually." He said in a deep voice that was smooth, but filled with venom.
"Him." He pointed to Robin.
"Please." Wally snorted. "You think you can just waltz right in here and take our friend? Think again." He was worried about his secret I.D being out in the open, but he wasn't going to go change and let this creep take his friend. He moved protectively in front of Robin. The others did that same.
"I wouldn't recommend putting up a fight." The man said, pulling out his sword. "It would only end badly for you."
"Whatever reason you want our friend for, it does not matter. You cannot have him." Kaldur said, calm as ever. He pulled out his water weapons.
"Um, guys… That's Death Stroke. He's a mercenary." Robin started to explain. He wanted to call the League. He knew what this guy was capable of. He didn't want his friends hurt. "Maybe we should-"
"It doesn't matter who he is. He stepped on our turf, he's dog food." Wally cut him off. Then he charged at the intruder.
"Wally, no!" Robin yelled. Wally tried to move under Death Strokes arms and knock him out under his legs, but the mercenary was faster than he thought. He jumped over the speedster with ease and used a side kick to launch him into the far wall.
"Wally!" Conner yelled, switching into his Superboy mode. He jumped at the man with his fist out to punch, but Death Stroke moved like lightning. He grabbed Superboy's arm and smashed him into the ground. Then he pulled out a glowing red rock. Superboy collapsed.
Red Kryptonite. Superboy grimaced as he felt his strength leave as deadly as green, but enough to paralyze him. He lay on the floor watching the battle, struggling.
Wally was up on his feet again, becoming Kid Flash as he put on the red goggles he had in his pocket. But before he could do anything though, Death Stroke threw a blue sticky blob at him. When it collided with his chest, the substance spread over his body like moving glue. He twisted and turned, trying to break free, but it had him trapped.
Kaldur used his weapons as swords and engaged the man. He dogged and sliced, but Death Strokes attacks came too quickly. He brought down the hilt of his sword on Kaldur's head and the atlantian slumped to the floor. Then he turned to Robin.
"Not too bright are they?" He took a step towards the boy. "Oh, by the way, I prefer the term hired assassin over mercenary."
Robin had watched as his friends had fought for him. Now it was his turn. He got down into a fighting stance.
"Alright little man." Death Stroke mocked. "Let's see what you got."
He charged at the young hero and sliced at him with his sword. Robin jumped and flew threw the air. He landed on the assassin's shoulders with his hands, making Death Stroke grunt, and landed on the balls of his feet behind him. Robin tried to knock him off his feet, but Death Stroke's fist came around faster than he thought it would. He received a hard punch to the gut, and before he knew it, he was being lifted into the air. Death Stroke threw him by the monitor. He landed with an oof! Robin looked at his attacker and back at the computer. He ran to it and sent a rapid call for help to the WatchTower. Then a fist clamped a cloth over his face and he staggered back.
"Whoa there kid! Can't have you calling in the Calvary now." Death Stroke laughed. Robin tried to pull the cloth away, but Death Stroke was too strong and the drug was already taking affect. He wobbled and fell to the ground. Death Stroke picked him up and threw him over his shoulder and made his way to the hole in the wall.
"Robin!" Wally cried. He struggled again, but he couldn't break free. He saw the face of his friend as he mouthed the word Help and lost all consciousness. Then they were gone. Wally pulled and shouted. He even tried vibrating out, only to result in a bloody nose. This couldn't be happening!
Batman: B02. Flash: B03. The zeta tubes glowed and his mentor and the Batman ran through.
"Wally! What's wrong? We got the S.O.S-" Flash looked around. "Oh." He said, dumb founded. Batman grabbed the Red Kryptonite and dropped it into a led box.
"Thanks." Superboy muttered. Batman looked at the unconscious Aqualad and Kid.
"Where's Robin?" Batman's head looked around the room, franticly. Kid jerked his head towards the giant whole in the wall.
"He took him!" Flash sped threw the hole to try and find them. Batman looked angrier than the time when Kid and Robin made the sound system fill the entire cave with dub step. And that was saying something. He turned to Kid.
"Who took him?" he seethed.
"He called himself Death Stroke." Aqualad said, rubbing the knot on his head from the sword blow. Batman looked like he was going to blow a fuse. The Flash ran back inside.
"I searched the whole island. They're gone." Batman's back straitened. Then he abruptly turned to the zeta tubes. Just before leaving, he called back,
"Get the team together. This takes top priority."
Hope everyone liked it! be on the look out for the next chapter.
