"How big are we talking?" Captain America asked.
"About the size of Texas."
"So Captain, I'm guessing by your speech and actions you were military?" Robin asked.
"Your quite sharp."
"I am the protégé of our world's greatest detective." Robin said proudly.
"Well I'll go talk with Furry about them staying. Oh my name is Bruce Banner." The man who was observing spoke up for the first time since the battle began.
"I have trust that you will not harm us, just as we will not harm you." Kaldur spoke.
"You have our word." Captain America confirmed.
"Since you'll be staying, names Tony, Tony Stark. Which of you hacked my suit?" Robin grinned impishly and climbed onto Wally's back.
"You should really have better security for it." Robin hit a button and Tony had control over his suit again.
"YOU hacked my suit?"
"And your files. I like a good challenge, it's fun."
"…You hack high security files for fun?" Black Widow asked.
"Yup." Robin chirped.
"You are such a nerd." Artemis said, "Why do you even hang out with Kid?"
"Hey! He is too smart. Besides he's fun to plot with."
"Plot? You mean YOU TWO are the reason my suits were PINK on Valentines Day?" shouted Artemis. Robin waved her off.
"It was really astrous, you need to calm down."
"He plays with prefixes a lot." Wally explained.
"Oh can I tell them your real names?" Robin asked like a little kid.
"I don't know…" Captain America trailed off sharing looks with the rest of his team.
"Please, please, please." Robin begged. Hawkeye shrugged while Black Widow said.
"I don't see why not." Captain gave a hesitant nod.
"Okay so Black Widow is Natasha Romanoff, a really whelming assassin and Hawkeye is her partner and his name is Clint Barton who as such astrous aim that he can out shoot Green Arrow easily, Red Arrow's been improving so he and Clint could be really whelming rivals. Thor is Thor from Asgard, and then there is Captain America who is Steve Rogers who had been frozen for seventy years! Oh and Bruce Banner is a hero called Hulk, pretty much an experiment gone wrong but has both good and bad outcomes." Robin blurted out.
"My name's Wally West." Wally introduced himself.
"Hello, My name is M'gann on my home planet, but my earth name is Megan."
"My Atlantain name is Kaldur'Ahm. You may call me Kaldur."
"Mine doesn't change." Artemis replied with a shrug.
"He's Conner, and sorry my mentor doesn't allow me to tell anyone my name. Not even them." Robin gestured to four of them.
"Wally knows?" Artemis asked sounding angry.
"They've been friends for years." Conner spoke up, "Of course he knows." Soon Bruce was back along with Nick Furry.
"So you're the young heroes Banner told me of."
"Oooo, you're Nick Furry! You're, like, their boss and run this whole base. I like you, you do what you think is right and will ignore your superiors if need to!" Furry rose an eyebrow.
"He hacked into the files." Natasha informed.
"A ten year old hacked into S. H. I. E. L. D. Files?" Furry asked.
"Hey!" yelled Robin. Conner and Artemis snickered with Megan giggling quietly. Kaldur smiled while Wally out right laughed.
"What?" Bruce asked for everyone.
"I'm thirteen." Robin huffed out. Wally kept laughing.
"Wallace Ruldoph West if you don't stop in one minute..." That stopped Wally.
"Dude you just sounded like my aunt."
"That reminds me I saw her and she wanted me to tell you that she got a call last minute so she's out of town. Already told Flash."
"Why didn't she tell me?"
"You were trying to do that experiment, the one you had been working on for months."
"Oh…Oh no, no, no! We're stuck here! That means months of work gone! I'll have to start it all over. Do you know how hard it was to get some of those chemicals?" Wally looked like he was about to cry.
"You're stuck in another dimension or universe and you're worried about a little experiment?" Natasha asked.
"A little experiment? A LITTLE EXPERIMENT? That experiment has taken hours of trial and error to even get the beginning mixture! The sleepless nights!"
"The days you skipped school." Robin added. Wally blushed then grumbled.
"Bats always know everything," Then louder, "The cost of the chemicals and having to sneak into my Uncle's lab because he wasn't around so technically I wasn't allowed in. So no it wasn't just a little experiment!" Robin got off his back and ordered,
"That exercise, do it, now." Wally glared but complied.
"You still have the notes, I can get you the chemicals and I can easily get you clearance into the labs. I know you're upset but this is an unforeseen event." Wally sighed.
"Feeling calmer?" Wally smiled a little before his stomach growled causing his face to redden.
"Hungry?" Bruce asked with humor laced in his voice.
"You have no idea, being a speedster means superfast metabolism."
"He can eat two fridges full of food and still be hungry." Conner said seriously.
"Only on bad days!" Wally protested.
"Where'd the kid go?" Clint asked looking around.
"Robin, return at once!" Kaldur commanded. Robin dropped from the ceiling landing on Natasha's shoulders in a handstand. He kept his head upward.
"Sorry." Robin apologized before pushing off and flipping towards Conner only to be grabbed by Tony.
"What?" Robin said in a whinny voice.
"You're thirteen and not only are you a techie but you're a ninja too? What else are you?"
"A straight A student."
"He also has a very astounding knowledge of science, one of the things he and I have in common." Wally spoke up.
"Stark put him down." Steve ordered. Shrugging Tony dropped him. Landing in a crouch Robin tilted his head with narrowed eyes.
"Wha-" Before Tony could finish a bird-a-rang flew an inch by his head. It barely missed Bruce before embedding itself in a dark corner. Robin slipped past everyone and ignored the questions. Pulling the bird-a-rang he carefully caught what it had hit.
"It seems someone placed bugs on the ship." Robin said handing Furry the destroyed camera. With a frown Furry went to find all the bugs. Before Robin could say anything else gas began filling the room.
"EVERYONE OUT!" Steve ordered. He ushered both teams out. Quickly he shut the door only to see Robin still in there. Steve went to pull the door open only for it to lock.
"He's trying to filter the gas out of the ship, He wants Tony, Clint and Natasha to try to do the same." Megan informed.
"Mind link." Artemis explained.
"Dose he have his gas mask?" Wally asked.
"Yes." Wally let a sigh of relief.
Robin squinted as the gas became thicker. A thud caught his attention. Looking behind him he saw a dark shadow.
"How did you get here?" Robin dodged an attack. Getting a good punch in Robin threw a few of his weapons. Hitting a few more times a punch to the face knocked his breathing filter out. Kicking the person Robin fumbled and hit a few more buttons before hearing the ventilation extracting the gas. With a small twitch of the lips he was out cold.
Conner ripped open the door. Robin laid still. Steve ran over.
"He is still breathing and his hearts pumping." Conner informed.
"Still we need to get him to the med bay." Steve picked him up.
"Kid you said your good with science?" Tony asked reappearing.
"Yeah."
"Good you're with me and Banner. We need to figure out what the gas was, what id does and how to cure it." Wally nodded and sped off.
"He does realize he doesn't know where it is right?" Natasha asked.
"He probably has seen the whole place by now." Artemis said. Steve carefully handed Tony Robin. Tony and Bruce turned to leave.
"His mind is still normal, there is nothing wrong mentally or physically with him." Megan told them before they left.
"I saw someone in the room with him." Conner spoke up.
"And you didn't say anything sooner?" Artemis asked angrily.
"You need to calm down, getting angry won't help your friend at all." Steve tried.
"Well staying here won't help either!" Artemis tried to storm off only to be stopped by Kaldur.
"He is right, this will get us nowhere." He looked to the remaining Avengers, "Could you please take us to where our friend is being kept?"
"It is late and you are probably worn out, you should sleep tonight and we can take you to see him in the morning." Thor said.
"Please can we see him, real quick, just to be sure?" Megan pleaded.
"We should allow them to," Clint spoke up, "I doubt they'll get any sleep, or stay in their rooms if they worry too much." Steve sighed.
"Alright, this way."
They entered a room and saw Tony, Bruce and Wally running tests.
"So far he's fine, go get rest, shoo." Wally pushed everyone not meant to be there out.
"Artemis, Megan, follow me, I will show you to the room you'll both be in." Natasha said.
"Conner, Kaldur, this way." Steve said leading them down a different hallway. Soon the teens were out like a light.
