The 8 year old boy walks up to Roy Harpers room on the watchtower, board as hell because Wally is at home with a cold. He Knocks Rapidly on the archers door.

Roy?

When there's no reply Richard doesn't get the message and persists with knocking.

Do you wanna go on mission
Then maybe we could play?
I never see you anymore
Come out the door
Wally thought you'd gone away-
We used to be like brothers
And now we're not
I wish you would tell me why!-
Do you wanna go on mission

The boy wonder smushes his face against the steel door.

It doesn't have to be a mission.

13 year old Speedy sighs, he doesn't have time to hang around with little kids. They're so babyish anyway! Why won't they get the message!

Go away Robin!

The boy wonder sighs.

Okay bye...

Then he runs off to find someone else to pester.


The now 13 year old runs up to that same steel door and practically head butts it. He hasn't seen speedy since he quit! His big Brother promised they would meet up sometime, why not now?

Do you wanna go on mission
Or go and play a prank of walls
I think some company is overdue
I've started talking to
the robots walking round the halls

Rob nods at red tornado as he walks past. "how you doing Red".

It gets a little lonely
All these empty rooms

The protégé looks out the huge window at the moon. Like the immature teen he is he's sitting cross legged on the floor.

Just watching space go by...
(Moon, rock, moon, rock, moon,rock)


The 18 year old stands. He's at his big brothers memorial service. He can see all heroes there...but not the one who matters. "Goodbye Wally, I love you. You were the best big brother I could have had...and the best little one Roy could have asked for." With that, the ex-boy wonder lays a red rose at the stones base. He begins to slowly walk off. "Dick where you going?" Without turning around Nightwing answers. "I need to see some one Tim."


Dick Grayson slowly walks to a run down apartments door, he thumps his back onto it and slides down crying. He knows Roy's the other side, he can hear him breathing.

Roy...
Please, I know you're in there,
The teams asking where you've been
They say "have courage", and I'm trying to
I'm really needing you, just let me in..
We only have each other
It's just you and me
What are we gonna do?

Richard eventually walks off, sparing one last glance at the tatty door. "Good bye".

Roy holds his head in his hands crying

"...I wish I'd gone on mission"
