A Delicate Balance

Chapter 1. THE MEMORIES

In the shadows of Jump City:

'I can't believe how long it had been since I last went on patrol, alone. It feels kinda good.' The boy wonder jumps from his shadowy hiding place as he goes after a mugger who just ran away with a young woman's purse. With a single spin kick the mugger is knocked down and drops the purse. After handcuffing the man to a street lamp he alerts the police to the location for the arrest. Robin hands the woman her purse and shoots his grappling hook onto a nearby building and swings up. 'Just like old times' He smiles to himself as he continues with his patrol.

"Hey! Rob, you there? Over."

"Yeah Cy, what is it?"

"Dude, you need to get back here now."

"Why? Is everything okay?"

"No! Everything is not okay. I can't handle this one on my own, Rob."

"What is going on over there?"

"Robin, It's her TIME!"

"I'm on my way!"

Robins hurries to the tower.

Meanwhile at the tower...

Cyborg and Beastboy are standing outside the hospital wing in titan tower. Starfire, Terra and Raven are inside the infirmary.

" I don't know how much more I can take of this, Star! Where the hell is he?"

"I do not know, but he should be here for this wondrous occasion, any minute now."

"I'm going to go see if Robin is here."

Terra walks out of the infirmary.

"How is she doing? I T-commed Rob, so he should be here any minute."

"Dude! When is this going to be over? I want to know if it looks like a creepy demon thing."

Rolling her eyes at beastboy, Terra walks back towards the infirmary. Robin bursts through the doors.

"Did I make it in time? Is she doing alright? Is she doing her breathing?" All the while shaking Terra trying to get answers.

Terra dizzily answers the questions.

"Yes, you made it in time. She is doing fine, but would like for you to help in the Delivery and of course she is breathing. Now if you don't mind I going to go hurl." Terra runs away down the hall clamping her mouth shut with her hand.

"It's about time you arrived! Get your ass over here!" Raven snarls.

"Now raven, I know that you are in alot of pain, but could you please let go of my hand, please?"

" Fine. " Raven releases Starfire's hand. While Starfire nurses her hand Robin comforts Raven.

"I'm glad I made it in time."

"So am I."

"And I am as well, friends." Starfire pipes in.

Tremors run through Raven's body as she tenses.

"Oh, Gods! Here comes another one, Star."

"Alright this time push as hard as you can. On the count of three?"

"Okay. Are you ready Robin?"

"Ready and waiting."

"Alright."

"One..."

"Two..."

"THREE!"
