I had this sitting around gathering dust. To my horror, I almost thought that I'd lost this one. As you can see, it was safe!

Matthew Michael Murdock looked out on Jump City and sighed. The storm was still pouring, and he hasn't been able to find shelter since bumping into the teen titans. Not my best choice... In the distance, he could hear something whizzing through the air. He turned just in time to dodge someone crashing into him.

The figure in question got up to dust himself off.

"Spidey?" The first thing Daredevil felt was surprise. Last time he "saw" Spiderman was a couple hours ago, then he just…disappeared.

Spiderman looked at his comrade and started shifting uncomfortably from the water seeping into his suit. He felt unbelievably relieved that Matt was all right. And that he didn't get himself killed going after him. As a result, he ran to hug him.

Daredevil tensed a little, and tentatively returned the gesture, before breaking the ice with a simple comment.

"You're…wet."

Peter laughed as he stepped back from his partner.

"Smartass.

Matt then decided that he need to ask something slightly more important, and less sarcastic.

"What're you doing here?"

"I followed you. Doc Oc doesn't mess around and when that beam hit you, and you disappeared..."

Pete trailed off, leaving the implications for Matt. Ah. So he thought that Matt got disintegrated or something. And he followed him anyway. Looks like some took 'till death do you part' a little too seriously.

"Well at least we're alive." Matt was happier than he let on. But of course, he had to stay bad cop at all times while they were in costume.

"I guess."

Spiderman shrugged noncommittally and looked away from Daredevil. Huh. That was oddly non optimistic of him. Probably the fact that they were lost. Hugely.

"Any idea where we are?" Daredevil decided to try to break the tension a little by getting something productive done.

"Not a clue." Well that was really helpful. At least he had an excuse. He could've only just gotten here! Unlike Matt, who got here hours ago, and was too busy becoming undesirable number one.

And as if Pete cottoned on to his thoughts…

"I heard that were local heroes around here. Do you know anything about that?"

Daredevil scratched the back of his neck, and tried to figure out how to answer.

'Oh yeah, I met the heroes. Then I made myself look like a criminal evading arrest and broke their windows. Let's go ask if we can crash at their place.'

"Um…"

"That guy might know!"

Matt listened around, and heard a fast heart beat, coming towards them. He jumped off the building and went towards the sound. As he almost reached the person, he heard his partner shooting webs at their unknown adversary. As it turns it out, it was one of the very same heroes he escaped not two minutes ago. God, what was his name? Some bird name…Cardinal? Hawk? He landed with a thud in front of Spiderman.

"Get this off me!" He was pissed.

"Relax buddy, it'll dissolve in an hour or two. You wouldn't know where to find the local heroes would you?"

Matt felt like asking, "Are you blind? Of course he would." But he could only assume that he was wearing some outlandish costume like they were. Unbeknownst to Matt, Robin gave Spiderman a look that clearly said, "Duh!".

Matt elbowed Pete. He raised his eyebrows, in what he hoped was a significant way, when he realized that Peter couldn't see it. But somehow, Pete seemed to catch his drift, because right after the exchange, he went to help Robin get unstuck. As soon as he was free, his first thought was to subdue the both of them, but stopped. They did release him after all. And that stunt that the horned guy pulled could have easily been a misunderstanding.

However…

His pride didn't let him forget that he was careless enough to let himself get tied up just now. He decided to stand his ground, and keep treating them like threats until he could confirm their intentions.

"Robin." Matt had to keep himself from "ah-ha-"ing out loud. That's the kid's name! Peter on the other hand didn't know this information. "Spiderman." He looked between Daredevil and Robin. "And this is-"

"We've met."

Under his mask, Spiderman had somewhat of an unsurprised look; that explains why he was evasive earlier.

Matt on the other hand, got a little red. "Yeah, by the way, that whole thing was bad situation. I'm not the bad guy kid."

Robin fumed slightly. He straigtened up a little and crossed his arms. "I'm not a kid. And you made yourself look pretty suspicious back there."

Daredevil had a sharp reply on his tongue when Spiderman interrupted him, showing his more silver tongued side. "Well to be fair, we didn't know who you were either. We're heroes where we're from, and as you can see, we're not in Kansas anymore."

"You're not from Kansas. Kid Flash would have mentioned you two."

Spiderman had to keep himself from face palming.

"Do they not have Wizard-"

Daredevil cut him off this time.

"Not the point here web-head." He turned his attention on Robin. "What he means to say, is that we're not from here. We don't even know if we can get back to where we were."

Robin's eyes narrowed very slightly, trying to see if they were telling the truth or not. They look trustworthy enough. WWBD. What Would Batman Do?

Well Robin knew the answer to that. He'd probably beat the truth out of them.

But they weren't normal thugs. They were supers. And what could he do if Spiderman decided to web him up again? Those webs weren't that different from the sticky substance that he used in the Red X costume, but they were very different at the same time. After all, they were probably organic, and therefore had very different chemical properties that he wouldn't have a hope of dealing with if he didn't even know what it was. And it's not like Daredevil tried to kill them. Looking back on it, he did seem pretty disoriented.

Not to mention that it was raining, and almost two in the morning and he wanted to be sleeping. This was so not worth it.

So he did what any half asleep teenager would do.

He took the easy way out.

"Do you guys have a place to crash?"


So...I don't know who to ship Robin with. It's between Kid Flash and Red X.
