The door to the cell opened and Dick stepped out. Waller started walking out and Dick hastily followed.

"So why are you letting me out again?" asked Dick.

"I have a...group of individuals. Very unique individuals who just so happen to need a leader. From what I've seen, you boast an impressive arsenal of skills. Top peak form and on the verge of genius level intelligence. And let's not forget that you have more crime fighting experience than most of the members of the Justice League. I never came forward with my proposition because you always seemed to rely solely on the Batman's opinion. That is until your recent mishap. That's when it was made evident that you are now capable of living and fighting without Batman."

"You preach a choir lady I'll give you that. So where is this so called team?"

"Right in here" said Waller as she typed in her key code into the security panel.

The door opened to reveal a rather large room. Dick immediately noticed the individuals that Waller spoke of.

Waller stepped forward. "Listen up. Each of you were chosen for very specific reasons. This world is in danger and no single individual will be able to protect the world for long. This plan has been in observation stage up until now. This is Nightwing. The leader of your team. Get to know each other. You all will be spending quite a lot of time together."

And with that, Amanda walked out of the room.

Everyone's eyes focused on Dick. The first one to introduce themselves was an alien woman. Despite the fact that her skin was green, she was incredibly beautiful. But it was the red hair that really intrigued Dick. He didn't know what it was about red hair, but it always got to him.

"Hello Nightwing. I am pleased to meet you. My name is Koriand'r. But Starfire has recently become a favorite of others so Starfire is fine." said Starfire with a smile.

A short green guy stepped forward next. "Sup. Call me Beast Boy. And not to toot my own horn but I'm probably the strongest one here. Now if you're cool, I'll let you hang with me and show you how to pick up some real women." said Beast Boy with a grin.

A large man stepped out of the corner of the room and just frowned. "I don't know why Waller put you in charge. You're a pipsqueak. What are you gonna do in a real fight huh?"

Dick could feel his face getting hot with anger. "Do you wanna find out?" asked Dick daring the man to make a move.

Starfire and Beast Boy quickly separated the two. "That's Cyborg. He can be a little bit of a hot head when he's cranky" answered Beast Boy.

Cyborg pushed Beast Boy off of him. "Don't speak for me. As for you Nightwing, keep to yourself and I won't kick your ass." And with that Cyborg walked to the back of the room.

There was only one team member left standing in the dark.

"Come Raven. Join us in the introductory ritual." said Starfire.

Raven floated forward. "Hi." Raven turned and returned to her former spot.

Dick regained his composure. "Okay well, I'm Nightwing and it's nice to meet most of you." said Dick as he frowned at Cyborg. "I want to make it clear that we are a team and no one member plays a bigger role than anyone else. Now lets get some sleep." Dick turned to the wall deep in thought. He'd figure all of this out tomorrow. For now, all he wanted was a good night's sleep.
