The thirteen year-old let his tears fall on his partner's shoulder, as she held him. His big brothers put comforting hands on his shoulders, looking at their little brother cry for his adoptive father.
Wally squeezed Dick's shoulder, and the little bird looked up to his friend with tearful eyes.
"Come on, let's get you to bed." said the speedster. "But I'll wake up again." whimpered the hero. Roy smiled at him. "We'll stay with you, Dickie. As long as you're safe." Dick looked at Barbara, who nodded, smiling at him.
The three red-heads and the ebony walked towards the youngest's room, holding him, the red thirteen year-old whispered soothing words into his ear.
Day 2
Richard Grayson had been growing more anxious, and he had looked, hacked and checked everywhere. His father was yet to be found.
Barbara Gordon had not gotten any sleep last night, and there were already bags starting to form under her eyes, ever since her friend told her his father was kidnapped.
Roy Harper had sent a search party, along with himself to look for his friend's mentor.
Wallace West has informed the Team and the Justice League at the couch and the kitchen that Gotham City's hero was kidnapped. Followed by questions. Questions that makes him stressed. And jokes.
"How can he be kidnapped? He's Batman for crying out loud!" Raquel.
"I don't know, Raquel. It's possible. Even Superman has a few bruises." Artemis.
"Well, if he's kidnapped, then he's probably free by now." Zatanna.
"He's Batman, after all." Connor.
"Team, we must not underestimate Batman." said Kaldur. "He could as well be d-"
"DON'T!" screamed a voice. "Please, just... don't."
"Rob?" Wally called, looking around. "Great." he muttered. He turned to the Team sadly, and asked, "Guys, could you give us a minute?"
They nodded hesitantly, and walked away to the debriefing room. "What's wrong with Robin?" asked M'gann over their mind-link. Zatanna shrugged. "I guess we'll just have to see."
They hid behind the corner of the living room, in the debriefing room. Batgirl was there, floating screens surrounding her. She looked curiously over her shoulder, spotted the Team, and asked, "What are you doing?"
The Team jumped, and M'gann answered her question. "We want to find out what's wrong with Robin. He was freaking out when Aqualad said that Batman might be dead."
Batgirl winced ever so slightly, that the Team missed it. "Where is he now?" asked the young heroine.
"He's with Wally." answered Artemis. Batgirl nodded, and startled the Team when she shouted, "Hey, Pixie Boots! They're 'ear-dropping'!"
The Team were left clueless.
Wally was still comforting Robin, an arm slung over his shoulder. There were tear tracks running down his face from his sunglasses. They suddenly heard a shout from the debriefing room.
"Hey, Pixie Boots! They're 'ear-dropping'!"
It was Batgirl. Wally looked down to Robin with an amused look. "Pixie Boots?" he laughed. Robin just waved his hand. Wally stopped laughing and asked Robin, a look of curiosity on his face. "Ear-dropping? What's that?" Robin cackled. "Classified information. But all I can tell you is that the Team is eavesdropping on us." he said with a smile.
Robin then replied Batgirl from his spot.
"Okay, mini-B! Joker's out to play!" Wally looked at him. "We're gonna prank them." said Robin so quietly the Team couldn't hear.
Batgirl smirked, and turned back to her work.
"BG?" called Artemis, a bit terrified.
Wally was actually scared for his friends. Sure, Batman isn't there, but that's not going to stop them. Batgirl had already warned Batman when he said Batgirl was going to join the Team that the Team consists Robin. Wally had agreed with her, stating that if the two was in a team together without him says chaos, with a capital C. The female Bat had also warned her mentor that if any very terrible prank the Team had fallen into and Batgirl and Robin were behind it, she said it was his fault, since he was the one who wanted to add Batgirl to the Team.
Yes, Wally was terrified.
