A/N: So I was reading over some of my first stories that never made it to print (And by print I mean this website) and I realised how much better at writing I've become thanks to this website whether it be from actually writing or from reading other peoples. I just want to say thank you to everyone who has followed/favourited to me or any of my fics and thank you to anyone who reviewed.

BTW I don't actually know what powers Argent has and I cannot remember for the life of me who Killowat is and I left out Bobby, Melvin and the other kids cuz they are kids they shouldn't get dragged into this fictional or naah.

It was all over the news, the infamous Teen Titans and the Justice League of America arguing on national TV . The media were trying all their tricks to get the scoop calling in all sorts of favours. Reporters were flocking in Jump, Gotham, Metropolis, Star, Central, Steele and Keystone City trying to get a word with the superheroes.

Robin was pacing agitated mumbling incoherent stuff like "Stupid Batman... stupid Justice League thinks we need them... Artemis...that was a low blow from superman." He stopped and took a deep breath he turned to Starfire, Beast Boy, Kid Flash, Jinx and Raven "Okay although most have probably already seen it being all over TV and all, inform the other Titans, we are going to have a meeting here in Jump. I have something to tell you guys, well to at least explain."

Starfire and Beast Boy started calling all the Honorary Titans and Titans East telling them to get to Jump ASAP. Herald and Raven agreed to collect them with their magic portals

Not ten minutes later all the titans, Aqualad, Argent, Bumblebee, Bushido, Gnarrk, Herald, Hot Spot, Jerico, Kid Flash, Jinx, Kole, Más y Menos, Pantha, Speedy, Killowat, Thunder, Lightning, Wildebeest and Wonder Girl as well as Robin, Starfire, Raven and Beast Boy were all sat around the Titans living room making small chat and catching up with each other until Robin silenced them.

"Titans, thank you all so much for coming here at such short notice but I have something important to tell you." Robin was sat at the front with everyone facing him and despite all the public speaking he had done he couldn't help but feel nervous and a bead of sweat trickled from his forehead. He took a deep breath and continued "Before I started the Original Titans me, Kid Flash and Speedy were part of another team."

Everyone besides the named gasped and muttering broke out amongst them Robin silence them once more.

" We were part of a team called Young Justice, it was a covert team of young heroes that worked under the Justice League. It was a team of Sidekicks and protégés and our leader was the first Aqualad, I'm sure a few of you have heard about him."

Garth exclaimed "You knew Kaldur!"

"Yeah, he was an awesome guy, always keeping the peace. He was a great leader." Kid Flash sighed and looked down mourning his lost friend

Starfire asked softly "So what happened?"

Robin join KF in looking at the floor suddenly finding his shoes very interesting "Artemis, Green Arrows second Protégé; Zatanna, Dr Fate's daughter; M'gaan AKA Miss Martian, Marian Manhunter's niece and Superboy, a teenaged clone of Superman created by Cadmus some died some just quit, couldn't take it anymore."

Speedy carried on "I wasn't actually part of the team because I left, I was the first to ever go solo which was why Green Arrow let Artemis be his sidekick. Artemis died and it threw the team off, KF went down a darker path in his hero career and Robin joined him in wallowing in his sadness, whilst Megan being a telepath became weak from all the negative energy surrounding her, Superboy's temper got worse and Superman's tendencies to despise him weren't helping, Zatanna left because she had already lost her father and then Artemis, Kaldur tried to keep the peace but it wasn't working."

Jinx asked curiously "Why would KF and Robin 'go down darker paths'?"

KF answered this one "Artemis... was my girlfriend-"

"What!?" Jinx exclaimed

"-And Zatanna was Robin's would-be girlfriend if either of them had admitted their feeling for each other, they haven't spoken in a while though."

Robin looked at the floor depressed "Two years."

"Anyway, we were on a mission it went bad. Super Boy, Miss Martian and Kaldur all died. I managed to get me and Robin out with my speed but..." He let out a choked sob and his voice cracked with emotion "They didn't get out." He closed his eyes so the tears wouldn't fall.

Speedy looked away "If only I hadn't been so stupid, I could have been there, I could have helped."

Robin exploded "Helped? HELPED!? No Speedy you would have died! You and me have almost the same special skills and if it weren't for KF I'd be dead so don't you dare think like that! You couldn't have done anything to stop it, all it would have done is add you to the body count." He calmed down at the end his anger dissipated into despair. Robin shook his head "Enough with feelings, lets track Cyborg." He stood up "Speedy, Bumble Bee Try tracing him on the Super computer; Mas Y Menos, Kid Flash run around and look for any clues as to where he could be; Argent, Jinx, Herald and Jericho try finding him with your powers; Wildebeest, sniff him out find his scent; Kole, Gnarkk, Killowat and Bushido I need you patrolling the city because the original Titans need to attend to other things; Pantha, Hotspot and Aqualad patrol Steel city and Wonder Girl, Thunder and Lightning I need you to be my eyes in the sky. Titans go!" The named Titans all joined with their assigned partners and took off.

The original Titans were the only ones left in the room "Team," Robin started already marching back to the basement "The JL have the best super computer known to man, I'm using that computer even if it means having to deal with Batman , but please, please, don't break anything or fangirl over them."

They nodded solemnly and followed him once more through the Zeta beam. Superman smirked when he saw that the Titans were back "Oh I'm sorry what was that about not needing us?"

Robin gritted his teeth "We don't need you, we need your super computer."

"Which was built by the Justice League." Superman retorted

"More like which I helped program." Then he sent Superman a dirty look and sat down at the super computer, the team huddled around him with Raven leaning on the back of his chair. Starfire hovered behind Raven and Beast Boy had grabbed a stool and planted it to the left of Robin. Batman came up behind them but being 'the night' and all that no one but Robin noticed, Robin rolled his eyes "batman if you're trying to scare my team you're failing."

The team turned around and looked wearily at the tall man dressed in black. Batman ignored the others and kept his masked eyes on the back of Robin's neck "I'm not trying to scare your team, I'm here to make sure you covered all your bases."

"Do you mean telling them about my secret identitiy? Because I haven't."

"Wow you managed to keep basically the only rule that comes with being a super hero."

Robin snarled "you're not a super hero."

"neither are you."

"I never said I was."

Batman pursed his lips "Have you mentioned anything about your secret identity?"

"Besides the fact that I don't do circuses? No, I haven't." Robin continued to type at the computer, eyes scanning the screen for something, anything, that could help them find his missing team mate

"Have you talked about Gotham or any of the things in the Batcave?"

"They didn't even know there was a batcave." Robin still hadn't turned around

"Did you tell them about all you special skills?"

"They know what they see." Was all Robin said

"And what do they see?"

Robin shrugged "Mixed martial arts, gymnastics."

"Do you have contingency plans?" Batman asked smugly almost positive that Robin would say no

Robin remained silent

He dropped his smug act quickly "Wait. You do?"

Robin finally turned around "That's the thing about being raised by you. No matter how hard you try, you can never trust anyone 100%."

"That's not what I taught you." Batman's gaze met Robin's

"oh yeah, silly me. I forgot, you taught me to be suspicious of everyone and everything, you taught me I couldn't trust anyone but you and Barbara, oh wait! You said i couldn't trust Barbara either! You taught me that I couldn't even trust the freaking Justice League or Young Justice and now I can't even trust anyone! Not even you because you betrayed my trust a long time ago when you blew up that warehouse!"

Batman stayed silent for a minute as Robin breathed heavily and calmed down slightly but not much "It was either 300 civillians or 3 heroes."

"THREE! THREE HEROES! Are you actually kidding me! Have you forgotten that Kid Flash and I were in that warehouse! It wasn't three heroes it was five freaking unwilling, teenaged martyrs!"

"Robin-"

"NO! You don't talk to me anymore! I put up with your questions and your patronising nature towards me right now because my team member is missing! But I will not ever let you forget that you were one speedster away from blowing up your son!"

The Titans watched back and forth like a tennis match and gasped when Robin said he was batman's son.

Batman for the first time since the Titans had met him actually looked like he was feeling something instead of locking his emotions away behind an impenetrable facade, whether it was shame or anger was indiscernible. "Sometimes you have to choose the lesser of two evils."

Robin shook his head "Batman if there's one good thing you taught me it's that there's the easy way and the right way. When you're a hero, especially a non-super powered one; you must always choose the right way. Otherwise it doesn't make you any better than the people we fight."

"And as a mentor that is the most important lesson you could have learned from me."

The two stared silently at each other for 10 seconds before Robin turned back to face the computer and began typing again, doing his best to find even a single lead to Slade or Cyborg. He took out his TT Com and called into it "Titans, report in. Do you have anything?"

He was answered with a chorus of "Nopes" "negatives" and "nadas" which shrouded the sound of Batman's cape as he left the room.
