Hey, thanks to everyone who reviewed! Anyway, this story is going to be using a lot characters from the Batman universe but if you don't like one of them tell me and I'll see what I can do to change it.
Disclaimer: I do not own teen titans.
"Dude! This place is even larger than I imagined!" Beast Boy said staring up at the skyscrapers of Gotham City. "How many people live here again?"
"About four million" Cyborg grinned "Now Rob, which direction is this manor in again?"
"Turn left at the next street and keep going until you hit Wayne road. You should be able to find the manor from there." Robin said a little urgently. He turned his head and looked towards the back of the car. Starfire and Beast Boy continued to rave about how the city looked while Raven sat quietly between the two reading one of her books. For the hundredth time that day Robin sighed.
"Man, this city is so cool!" Beast Boy exclaimed "Why'd you ever decide to leave?" Robin's eyes narrowed under his mask and a strange look came over his face.
"It may look nice by day" he half growled "but by night it's an entirely different town."
"Sorry man didn't mean to…Dude! Is that your house?!" Beast Boy yelled glancing up at the large mansion.
"That's Wayne Manor." Robin confirmed. He got out of the car and walked up to the gate and pressed the button on the voice speaker. A moment later a crisp English accent could be heard.
"Hello?" the voice asked.
"Alfred." Robin said and after a moment continued "It's me."
"Ah, Master Dick!" Alfred said as the gate opened. "I shall meet you at the door." As the T Car drove up to the manor a figure in a tuxedo could be seen waiting.
"Master Dick its been so long." Alfred said greeting Robin.
"Hello Alfred" Robin said with a small smile giving him a handshake. "I'd like to introduce you to my new team, that's Cyborg, Beast Boy, Star Fire and Raven." Alfred gave a polite nod to each of them and then traveled to the trunk of the car to help retrieve there suitcases.
"Oh, and you remember Mrs. Gordon." Alfred said as he pulled three cases from the trunk with ease.
"Barbara?" Robin asked turning to look at her come out the door.
"Hey Bird Boy" She said softly "Long time no see."
"Isn't Mr. Wayne around?" Raven asked skeptically looking first at Barbara and then at Wayne Manor. Alfred glanced uneasily at Robin and Barbara looked at the ground.
"Perhaps we'd better continue this talk inside the manor." Alfred said suddenly.
"Something wrong?" Raven asked. Robin paused before answering.
"Bruce has been…missing."
"Two weeks?" Cyborg asked in disbelief. "Why didn't you call him earlier?"
"It's a long story." Robin said then looking back at Alfred. "You said you lost his signal in the warehouse district?"
"Yes sir, but we've looked everywhere in that area. Lucius said that some kind of radio interference blocked out his com link and blocked the locator device in his suit."
"I'm going to check out that area and see if I can find anything that you guys missed." Robin said quickly.
"Hey, the city hasn't been safe lately, you really shouldn't go alone, I'm coming with you." Barbara said "I'll meet you by the bat mobile in a few minuets."
"I'll come to!" Raven said a little too quickly. "I can uh sense him if he's around."
"Right" Robin confirmed then turning to the rest of the group. "Cyborg, Starfire, Beast boy, you guys can help Alfred pick up more information."
"Dude we just got here!" Beast Boy groaned.
"Rest assured Master Robin, I shall be able to continue the search." Alfred smiled.
"Thanks Alfred, come on Raven." He said as he led Raven towards one of the entrances to the bat cave.
Under Wayne Manor inside the Bat Cave Batgirl showed the two to the Bat Mobile. "You'll find not much has changed since you left, in terms of equipment anyway." She said as she took the passengers seat.
"You haven't changed a bit." Robin said giving her a rare smile.
"Shut up and drive boy blunder." She smiled giving him a small punch to the arm. Robin noticed the strange look that Raven gave him.
"She used to be uh…"
"Your girlfriend?" Raven asked straight to the point.
"Pretty much." Batgirl said looking out the window as Robin drove the car out of the cave and into the sewers line that ran under the Bat Cave.
"Are you still…"
"No." The two answered firmly and quickly with little tone or emotion to there voices.
"What happened?" she asked with a raised eyebrow.
"We don't really like to talk about it." Robin said with a determined look on his face. Deciding to drop the matter Raven was silent for the rest of the trip. When they reached warehouse area it was already dusk.
"This is approximately the place where his transmitter was still working." Bat Girl said. "Lucius says that there was a lot of interference in this area between nine o clock and two in the morning and it wasn't natural however, it shouldn't have been strong enough to block a transmission from his cowl."
"A scrambling device?" Robin asked.
"No, those things are huge, they would have left a trail."
"What about a sniper?"
"Huh?"
"Technically speaking you could scramble the signals in the area for a minuet or two with a portable device which would give someone time to capture him and any other interference…"
"Could easily have been faked." Batgirl finished "I'm going to scout the buildings to see if I can pick up any clues, you two going to be fine here?" The two nodded and watched as Batgirl fired a tow cable at the nearest building and flew away.
"Okay, what's the deal Raven?" Robin said as soon as she was gone.
"What do you mean?" Raven asked in her usual monotone.
"You'd have to have met Batman before you could sense him, if you never met a person before then you'd have no idea what to look for when trying to find a someone."
"How'd you…?"
"We share a bond remember?" Robin said with a small smirk as he walked towards one of the warehouses. "So why'd you come along?"
"Why did you let me come along?" She retorted.
"Maybe I just like your company." He said then walking into the warehouse he began to search the area for any clues.
"You're pretty close aren't you?"
"These guys were my family for a quite awhile" he sighed. "Bruce acted like a father to me , Alfred was great and Barbara was like my sister."
"Why'd you ever chose to leave?" Raven asked curiously
"I didn't choose to leave. I got kicked out. But before I left Bruce told me that if I ever needed help that I could always come back, but not as a side kick" Robin said his face turning into a frown.
"You really care about him don't you?" Raven said with sympathy.
"Like I said." Robin said his frown deepening "He was like a father to me, he took me in" Robin sighed "When it seemed that no one else could help. He let me live in the manor, it was home for a long time. Ever since the circus accident…" he said sitting down by the wall of the warehouse trying to swallow the lump in his throat. "That took away my parents Bruce was there to help. He helped me find my parents killer, now I have to find him, It's my turn to repay him." He said wincing as he remembered the day when his parents died.
"Robin, I'm…I'm sorry" she said quietly sitting down next to him and taking his hand she looked straight at him giving Robin the feeling that she was staring right through his mask and into his eyes. "I know how it feels to lose someone close to you. I lost a lot of people close to me when I was young. I promise you, and we'll find him. Whatever, it takes" She said giving his hand a small squeeze, Robin gave her a genuine smile.
"Thanks Raven." He said looking down at her.
"No problem." She said blushing slightly. She moved a little closer to him and looked up at his face and he smiled down at her. Slowly the two moved there heads closer towards each others when Robin's communicator suddenly rang. The two quickly pulled back and Robin pressed a button on the communicator.
"You were right Robin" came Batgirls voice "And you're going to want to see this."
"On a rooftop about six hundred yards away, I found this." She said holding up a bullet shell. Robin slowly took the shell and help it up in his hand and turned it around to see the large initials scrawled on it the side. Plainly printed were the royally scrawled initials D.S.
"Deadshot!" he growled.
So, good or bad? Was Batgirl too annoying? Not enough of the other titans? Should I continue? Please give me some feed back.
