Nightwing did a flip through the air, firing his grapple gun at the apex of his jump. The line latched onto a nearby skyscraper and recoiled, flinging the vigilante skyward. Nightwing turned his momentum into a triple mid-air somersault to land on top of a Wayne Enterprises building.
"Only a triple? I've seen better. But, clearly your time away hasn't dulled your skills, 'Wing." A woman's voice critiqued. Nightwing turned. Perched upon the top of the 'A' in 'Wayne', sat a familiar black and red costume.
"It's good to see you, Kate." Nightwing said with a small smile.
"What happened to that rule about names while in costume, Drake?" The woman, Kate, replied.
"I'm sorry, would you prefer Batwoman?" Nightwing said with a foxy grin. Batwoman flipped off the sign, landing just in front of Nightwing.
"Since the Titans were a bust, what now?" She asked challengingly.
"The trip wasn't a complete waste; They implied that Robin leaves a lot. We, of course, know that those trips are when he returns home to Gotham- "Nightwing began.
"However, the Titans thought that nothing was wrong- "Batwoman continued.
"-that this was one of those times- "Nightwing picked back up.
"-and there were no signs of a struggle- "Batwoman added.
"Which, taken together, one can only come to the conclusion-" Nightwing said quickly.
"Robin left on his own." Both vigilantes finished. Batwoman tugged on a strand of her red hair.
"Which begs the question, where did he go?" Nightwing said, running a hand down his face, "Tch. We're just going in circles!"
"Maybe not. If he left willingly, could he have left with someone else, willingly?" Batwoman asked thoughtfully.
"Like who?" Nightwing asked, already running a list through his holo-glove's computer.
"Do you thinkā¦" Nightwing began, "No, he's left her twice already."
"Who? I didn't think Robin had a girlfriend." Batwoman said eagerly.
"Not girlfriend. His mother." Nightwing corrected.
"Ah. Either way it's worth a shot, isn't it?" Batwoman said moving to edge of the roof.
"I'll tell the boss about our suspicions, 'kay?" Batwoman called as she leapt from the building. Nightwing rolled his eyes and followed suit.
