Chapter 2:

Kid Flash leapt to his feet, overjoyed.

"YES! YES!" he screamed happily.

The League had just called, requesting that they leave to stop an enemy who surfaced suddenly and had started attacking a nearby town. They gave the coordinates to Megan who would be flying the ship and told the others to get suited up. It took less then five minutes for every one to get on their suits and to take their seats in the ship. Once they all were on, Megan started up the ship and began to drive.

Robin scooted back in his seat and was the last to buckle his seat belt. It could have something to do with the fact that he was too short to touch the ground with his feet, but either way, he was still the slowest. In his defense, the seats were pretty tall. Wally sat next to him. He knew that if Robin was buckled in, he couldn't run off and he would have to answer his questions.

"Hey Robin, you disappeared before I could ask you earlier… What's your real name?" Wally asked the boy beside him.

Robin laughed. "I'm Robin, nice to meet you."

Wally folded his arms over his chest. "No, what's your real name? The one your Mum and Dad gave ya?"

Robin stiffened for a second, but he shook it off.

"Can't tell you."

"Why not? You know my name, you know Aqualad's name, you know Megan's name… I don't think Superboy has a name… We trust you! Do you not trust us?" Wally sounded offended.

Robin felt bad but he shook his head. "No, I do trust you. Batman doesn't."

Wally looked around dramatically.

"I don't see Batman. Do you see him Kal?" Wally asked Aqualad.

Aqualad rolled his eyes. "Leave me out of this."

Robin just smiled, folding his arms over his chest.

"If Batman's not here, he won't find out," Wally tried to convince Robin.

The black haired boy shook his head. "Batman will find out. He has his ways."

Wally frowned. There had to be someway to get him to tell.

"Well, you said it yourself: names are reused. So, it wouldn't hurt just to tell us your first name…" Wally tried.

Robin thought about that.

"True, but even my first name could be used to figure me out."

Wally was furious.

"How about your middle name then?" he asked, sarcastically.

Robin smiled at his friend's anger.

"Alright; John," he told him.

Wally jumped in surprise.

"What?"

Robin grinned.

"I said my middle name is John."

Wally laughed and did a strange dance in his seat.

"There, one part of your name down!" he cheered.

Megan laughed silently. Kalder grinned, amused. Superboy failed to hide a small smile. Robin pulled on his gloves, pulling them higher up on his arms.

"So, what about your last name?" Wally begged.

Robin shook his head. "Nuh uh!"

"What harm could it do?" the red head pouted.

"I know for a fact that I'm the only Ri-," Robin quickly stopped himself. "I know for a fact that I'm the only one with my name around here."

Wally heard his mess up and grinned.

"So, your name starts with Ri? Let's see… Ricky… Ricardo… Richard… Rico… Riley… Ringo… Ripley…"

Robin folded his arms across his chest, no emotion coming from him. On the outside he looked angry. On the inside, he felt like a deer that was just shot by a hunter. He could run away for a little bit longer, but it wouldn't be long until the hunter caught up to him and finished him. He wanted nothing more then to be finished off at the moment. He was saved though, as Megan's voice echoed through the ship.

"We're here," she called.

The ship touched down and she opened the doors and invited them to leave. Robin happily accepted. He tore out of his seat and practically leapt out the door towards the enemy. The others followed.

"Uh… not to sound stupid… but where's the bad guy?" the Kid Flash asked, looking around.

All he saw was an old fashioned circus tent ahead of him.

"I'm guessing he's in there," Superboy muttered, heading towards it.

Kalder nodded and walked with him. Megan flew after them. Wally was about to speed after them until he saw Robin. Robin looked like a store mannequin almost. He stood there, pale and stiff.

"Uh, Rob, time to go kick some ass?" he reminded his friend.

Robin jumped hearing his friend's voice.

"Huh- oh yeah, coming," he muttered, running towards the circus tent.

The nephew of the Flash shook his head and sighed.

"What a bipolar monkey," he said to himself, before dashing after the team.

Once inside the red and white tent, everyone stopped in surprise. It was an average circus tent. Well, that's what the rest of the team. Robin knew better. He could tell the differences. It was their enemy that stopped everyone. It was a… well, to put it simply; it was a very big circus clown. His skin was white and powdery, he had a large red nose, he had an even larger red afro, he had circles around his eyes and lipstick around his mouth, striped pants that were two times bigger than he needed and a puffy shirt that matched his pants.

Robin acted fast. He charged forward only to veer sharply to the right and through a small sphere at the ground by the clown's feet. It exploded, but it mostly just gave him the cover he needed to disappear. Superboy did what he knew how and charged forward, landing solid punches against the clown's ankles. It looked painful, but the clown didn't react.

"He doesn't seem to be doing anything bad… why are we fighting him?" Kalder asked Megan.

She had her eyes closed tightly. She shook her head softly.

"Nothing… I'm getting nothing. It's like he's a robot," she told him.

"He's. Not. A. Robot!" Superboy told her, between each punch.

"Why would the League tell us to stop a giant, harmless clown?" Kalder was confused.

A male scream tore through the air.

"He's not harmless!" Wally cried.

They all looked up. The clown had grabbed the Kid Flash by his feet and was holding him close to his mouth.

"Food…" the clown said slowly in a super deep voice.

It caused Wally to squirm and scream more.

"No! Not food! Not food! Help!"

Megan started to fly up to save him, but the clown smashed her away. Wally let out a war cry.

"No!" he cried as he watched her fly backwards and crash into the tent wall.

Superboy's punches got stronger in anger. Kalder pulled out the two tubes from his back. They turned bright blue in response. Water shot from them at the clown's arms, but the clown didn't seem to mind. He just simply extended his foot, sending Superboy and Kalder both flying.

"Crap! Robin!" Wally cried out, desperate.

He tried to spin around; he tried running, kicking and even biting the clown. Nothing was going to free him. The clown opened his mouth and slowly lifted Wally up. Panic flew to his throat.

"I'm going to be eaten by a clown!" he moaned.

"Not if I can help it!" Robin cried.

He flew across the circus tent, his knees bent around the trapeze bar. He flew forward, determination in his eyes. Wally was surprised to see Robin on the trapeze, but he was more relieved then anything else. Robin soared forward, tightly grabbed Wally's forearms with his hands and yanked him from the clown's grip.

"Hold on," Robin ordered with a snap to his voice.

Wally didn't hesitate. He tightly held Robin's wrists, closing his eyes tightly. Robin swung his legs backwards, causing them to retreat back past the clown.

"Robin, the clown!" Wally noticed.

Robin nodded.

"Can't swing you to the other side unless there's someone else on the bar. That's why you never see trapezists performing alone," Robin said, gaining momentum.

He got to the platform and dropped the Kid Flash onto it, quickly flipping off the bar, landing beside him. The bar flew forward, as if by magic. Everyone was watching Robin, surprised. Robin really didn't like the attention.

"Come on people, we have a giant cannibal clown to stop!" Robin reminded them, rubbing his sore wrists.

He wished he would've known that he would be riding the trapeze. If he did, he would've put some bandages around his forearms. But he didn't know and now they hurt. Shrugging, Robin reached for his Grappling Hook. He backed up.

"Good luck," he told Wally, before running forward and firing off his grappling hook, landing on the clown's hand, only to jump back off of it for speed.

The others, still surprised, snapped out of it, got to their feet and charged the clown.

Okay, so we have introduced his middle name and 'Ri' the first two letters in his first name. We've revealed he knows a little bit about the circus tents and he knows how to use the trapeze. Such fun (:
