Take Flight

Chapter 3: Answers from fear toxin

'Bat-cave'

He doesn't know so don't ask! Why was he so afraid of a flipping note? Did he know the handwriting? Maybe, but not likely; was he scared someone was coming for him and Bruce? Defiantly not, Bruce was Batman for goodness sakes! He wasn't going to worry about his guardian with something as stupid as a letter! That was ridicules, but so was him having a panic attack for crying out load.

He walked in the Bat-cave; he was wearing his Robin outfit. The team was apparently going on a mission today. But as usual he didn't question the Bat. He walked past the giant penny Bruce had. And the dinosaur; why did Bruce have all this stuff anyway?

He walked to the transporter and went in. Just hoping the team had gotten over the whole dilemma days prior. He hadn't been to the Mountain sense, but could you blame him? Well looks like his answer would be told to him.

'Mt. Justice'

Wally was pacing back and forth; Robin hadn't been to Mt. Justice in days! He was afraid his friend had quit the team because of himself.

Good going west! Look what you've done to mess things up!

'Robin B-O-1'

Speak of the amazingly ninja like devil.

Robin walked in; holding his wrist. He really wishes they would fix that stupid machine so when you went through with an injury it wouldn't hurt like heck!

He walked up to Wally still holding his wrist and rubbing it. A smile is plastered on his face. So maybe Wally didn't mess up completely!

"What up Walls?"

"Rob," Wally runs up to Robin hugging him tightly.

"Uh Wally, one: personal bubble and two: this really looks gay."

Wally backed off right away, "Sorry dude, I'm just so stoked you came back to the team!"

"Why wouldn't I?"

"The whole fight with the P… P word?"

"What do you mean P word?"

"A word I shouldn't say around you."

"What word are you talking about?"

"Par…"

"What?"

"Pare…"

"Wally I can't understand you!"

"Parents!"

Robin flinched a little, not by the word but because of Wally's over reaction to it. Man, Bat-girl must have really gotten to him; that plus Roy, and Batman; yeah he must really be paranoid now.

"Dude you can say that word around me. Who said you couldn't?"

"Roy and Bat-girl said not to talk about parents around you!"

"Dude I just don't like the topic. Just like Conner and Artemis. Doesn't mean you can't talk about them," Robin still had a smile on his face.

Wally looked down to Robin's forgotten wrist. "Uh what happened to your wrist?"

"A stupid stunt on a roof," Wally snickered at his answer.

"Has anyone told you, you're going to kill yourself?"

"Actually yes, Bat-girl told me a few days ago."

Wally looked dumbfounded at Robin. "Okay dude if you've been told twice within a few days. That's got to be a sign or something."

"Nah, just overprotective friends," Robin cackled at this. "Oh and you might want to suit up, were going on a mission in a few."

Robin walked passed Wally and into the entertainment room. He saw all his friends; but they looked kind of board or sad or something of the sort.

"You guys not feeling the aster?"

Artemis yelped at his sudden presents; Well Kaldur and Conner just jumped a little; and of course M'Gann screamed.

"Stop doing that!" Artemis yelled furiously.

"Sorry didn't mean to scare you guys."

Kaldur rolled his eyes playfully smirking well shaking his head. Conner went back to watching, whatever the heck it was; probably just static. Artemis seemed to have recovered and was just glaring, and M'Gann was baking who knows what again!

"Team report to the mission room," Batman called out through the speakers.

Robin quickly flipped away from them all and headed towards the mission room. His team mates closely following behind him.

Batman was waiting for them in the middle of the room. A small map pulled up showing a red dot; it looked like it was in Gotham city, but why would Batman send them there? Once everyone was in the room Batman started talking.

"Last night Scarecrow got loose from Arkhum. He left several guards screaming from fear gas leaving them useless to fight against him." A video clip of guards screaming, and crumpled on the floor began playing. Batman stopped it and continued. "Normally I would be the one doing this. But unfortunately I have an off world mission to go to. And this cannot wait." Batman looked over to Robin, "I know Aqualad is your leader. But for this mission Robin will be in charge. After all it is our city and our villain. He will fill you in on the way there."

With that Batman closed the screens and left the room. The team ran to the Bio-ship and sat down. Robin quickly pulled up a few screens; some being Scarecrow's recent crimes and others being videos of his attack. Some of the videos even showed him fighting Batman and himself.

"Scarecrow; one of Gotham's worst villains, if he were in a most-insane- villain contest with all of Gotham's villains he would come in second."

M'Gann looked at him confused, "Who would come in first?"

"Joker," Robin continued about Scarecrow. "He uses a special gas like substance called fear-toxin. Don't inhale it at any costs; any questions?"

Everyone was silent; Robin began tracking Scarecrow's most recent appearances and where he might be.

'Gotham pier'

"What's with villains and abandon warehouses right next to the piers; I mean seriously? It seems like in every mystery novel you read, or every comic that was ever written; has at least one part that has to do with and abandon warehouse and a pier." Artemis was pretty ticked when she figured out where they were going.

"Thank you Miss. Overreaction!" Wally, now KF called out to her.

"A KF that right there was an overreaction." Robin said from behind the carrot top speedster. The speedster glared at the usually cheerful Robin.

"Okay dude who are you and what have you done to Rob?"

Robin raised an eyebrow at the ketchup and mustard colored teen, "What?"

"The Rob I know isn't so serious. Now where is Rob and don't even think about lying."

"KF, I am Robin, and I'm only serious because Scarecrow could kill all of us, and I'm not going to let that happen."

Robin looked towards the rest of the team. "No one go head on with Scarecrow; stick to the lackeys instead. They'll still put up a fight, but not as much as Scarecrow will."

The team nodded, "Okay so what do we do walk in the front door?" Artemis asked quietly.

"Everyone just try and find a hiding place. I'll start the battle you come in after." Robin replied before disappearing. The rest of the team ran off to their hiding places waiting for Robin to give them a signal of some sort.

Robin was already inside; waiting for the others to get into position. He had perched himself on top of one of the rafters higher up in the roof. Once everyone was in place he looked over the area. Four guards off to the left with guns, two to the right, no guns; and a bunch in the middle with guns and knives. No sign of Scarecrow.

Robin threw down a gas pellet; signaling the team to start the attack. Artemis and Kaldur quickly moved towards two lackeys. Kaldur having his water swords and Artemis ready to shoot an arrow in one of their faces.

Artemis let's an arrow go right at one; right before hitting him it comes out as a net; trapping him and one of the other lackeys standing too close. Kaldur quickly maneuvered his water swords so that some water would come near him so he could use it. He hit one of the goons with the water making him fly into a wall.

Meanwhile KF was running everywhere with his super speed. Tripping kicking and punching everyone he could see. Well that is in tell a goon with a gun caught on and tripped him. He pointed the gun in KF's face a devilish smile on his face. He put one of his boots on KF so he couldn't get up.

"Let's see how Flash Jr. looks with a bullet in the head." KF was freaking out by this time. Trying, and failing, to get away from the mad man.

The goon pulled the trigger; making KF close his eyes ready to die. The weight was lifted off of him. I'M DEAD, OH MY GOSH I'M DEAD! He opened his eyes seeing the goon fall and cripple onto the floor. He turned around to see Miss. M; one hand on her forehead the other extended outward.

"KF are you ok?"

"Thanks to you beautiful," he lets out a sigh of relief and get back on his feet. He starts running after another goon trying to escape; Miss. M leaves trying to help Superboy who's got about five goons coming after him at the same time.

He picks up two of them and makes them collide with each other. Throwing them into two other lackeys; leaving the last one to get thrown into a wall thanks to Miss. M. He looks at her with a smile and goes after another laky.

Robin was searching for Scarecrow; still no sign of him. He looked at how the team was doing; they were kicking some major butt from his point of view. But that's not what caught his eye; it was the green smog like gas that was coming out of the ventilation system.

"Everyone don't breath in the-"

Too late; the team was falling to the floor screaming. He tried reaching for his gas mask but he was already breathing in the smoke.

Robin, as Dick Grayson, was standing on top of the trapeze platform. Looking down on the cheering audience; the ring master had already called his parents names and was now announcing his.

"And now the youngest member of the amazing family," the spotlights fell on him as his parents came back around to catch him. Right as he was about to go there was a snap. Making everyone look up to see the weirs come on done.

His mother gasped then looked at her son one last time fear in her eyes. "Dick!"

"No!"

They fell, which to Dick seemed like hours, in tell they hit the floor with a sickening crunch. He climbed down from the platform and ran to the motionless bodies; blood surrounded his parents crippled bodies. The nightmares over usually here; in his dreams he never gets the happy parts with Bruce taking him in. But the nightmare continues pitifully; but it's changed. There are pieces in it that never happened.

Tony Zucco starts walking up to him. Dick who is no longer in his circus wear but in his normal civvies looks up at him. Behind the mad man is Bruce, in his Batman suit; being held by Zucco's brothers. Along with his team mates; Zucco bends down and looks Dick in the eyes.

"Hello Boy Blunder, did you miss me?"

Robin quickly opens his eyes with a scream; he notices that he's on the ground of the warehouse. And that his friends are also rising to their feet. He slowly gets up shacking; whatever he saw he didn't like it. It seemed like the nightmare was telling him something. But he didn't know what, or why.

"I-is everyone okay?" He calls out with a shaky voice; noting that they are alone in the warehouse.

They all look at him; fear in their eyes. He really couldn't blame them; it was their first time with fear-toxin.

"What was that?" Artemis asked; her voice sounded like she had just seen a ghost.

"Fear-toxin, a horrible thing that shows you your biggest fear," he replied, trying to shake off the nightmare, but it wouldn't go away.

They all nodded and walked back towards the Bio-ship. Miss. M came in beside him putting a hand on his shoulder to stop him. The other team mates went into the ship; Miss. M turned Robin around.

"Are you ok? You were the last one to awake and when you did you were screaming like you were in pain."

He raised an eyebrow; he would have thought that he would be screaming when his parents fell. Why at the Tony Zucco part?

"Yeah, just a really bad memory," he mentally smacked himself he meant to say fear not memory.

"You saw a memory; do you have a bad past?" He looked into her eyes; Batman was going to kill him for this.

"Yeah; just a bunch of bad stuff happened before I was Robin; nothing I can or want to talk about though."

"If you ever do, you know where to find me." She walked onto the ship; he slowly followed her.


Comics are amazing I hope you guys know that. I started reading the YJ ones. There super good; trust me you should read them. It also has a comic that tells you where Robin was in the episode Denial. But anyway QUESTIONS CAN BE ASKED IN THE REVIEWS AND SHOULD BE AWNSERED NOT TO LONG AFTER POSTING.
