Explosion

Robin's POV

This couldn't be happening. Joker had Dick and it was all my fault. Barbra had called Batman and he had tracked the signal of Nightwing's communicator and then fixed up my head. Now the Team and Bruce, who had sped over on the Batwing, where racing to the coordinates hoping we wouldn't be to late.

"Well at least Joker forgot to take Wing's communicator away" Rocket says trying to lighten up the mood as the entire team sat anxiously, worried for our leader. I turn and glare at her in response. She was clueless.

"You don't know Joker, he doesn't do anything without a purpose. And there is no way he would just forget to take Nightwing's communicator, no he wants us to find him and that's what worries me..." I respond blatantly, no point in hiding the truth. That shuts the girl up, and we continue on his a deafening silence. Kid Flash begins to drum his fingers at superspeed, anxious to find Nightwing but Barbra silences him with a glare. I urge the Bio-ship faster with my mind hoping we could make it in time. "Dick you better be ok or I'll never forgive myself..." I think to myself as I gaze out the window. We had to make it in time...

*Breakline*

Miss. Martian lands the Bio-ship in front of an old warehouse at the bottom of a hill. Before the ship even touches the ground, I'm already out, racing up the hill towards the warehouse where the signal came from, Batman and Batgirl at my side. The rest of the Team follows us and we're almost there when the building suddenly explodes. I manage to get my cape in front of me as I'm thrown backwards from the force of the explosion.

"No..." I choke out when the smoke cleared, staring at the ruined remains of the warehouse. There was no way anyone could have survived that. I force myself up anyway as the Team stands to the side, paralyzed, as race forward into the debris hoping that, despite all odds he had survived. "Dick! Dick!" I scream hoarsely screw secret identities, praying he would answer back. I spot a black gloved hand under a piece of the siding and race over to it, pushing it off of the rest of the body. "Dick..." I whisper as I revel my 'older brother's' body covered in cuts and bruises and blood. His mask was torn, leaving most of his blood covered face exposed and his hands were cuffed in front of him, covered in blood from hundreds of little cuts. Bruce comes from behind me a crouches down next to the body.

"No... Dick I'm so sorry" I hear him whisper as he releases his hands from the cuffs. Everyone else comes over and joins us letting out gasps and many of the girls begin to cry. I was just about ready to join them.

"Joker will pay" I promise Dick in my mind hardly able to even look at his body.

"Wait... guys I hear a heartbeat, Nightwing is alive! Though just barely..." Superboy suddenly exclaims. Batman wastes no time and scopes up my brother's limb body, cradling him to his chest.

"We need to get him immediate medical attention... Batgirl, Miss. Martian go ready the Bio-ship, Aqualad alert the League to ready the med bay." Bruce orders, entering 'Batman mode'. As those specified run off to fulfill their duties, I stare at Dick's limp body in Bruce's arms. He looked so... lifeless... it was a miracle he survived. Bruce starts to walk down to the Bio-ship, carefully avoiding shrapnel from the explosion, and I follow behind numbly.

"Please Dick, you have to pull through, not just for me, but for the team, and for Bruce..." I whisper boarding the Bio-ship. Bruce lays Dick down carefully on one of the med beds and he and Barbra then hook Dick up to a million and one different machines and bandaging up his injuries quickly before seating next to him and gazing at him sadly. I copy them and lean against Batgirl's shoulder as the rest of the team boards, sitting far away to let us Bats take care of him. Barbra wraps her arm around my shoulder.

"Don't worry Jayjay he'll be fine... he's the goddamn Nightwing remember?" she whispers tying to comfort herself as much as me. I nod and let a tear slid down my face.

"Please be okay..." I think silently as the Bio-ship lifts off, leaving the Batwing and the destroyed warehouse behind. "Please..."

Nightwing's POV

I had to get out. I glance around frantically as the bomb continues to beep. 29, 28... I spot a window not to far away and crawl towards it, leaving a trail of blood behind. 24, 23. I reach the window and again try to stand but only succeed on falling forward, smashing my face on the ground, unable to catch myself thanks to my bound hands. I push myself back up, trying desperately to think of another way. 15, 14. I spot a crate and pull myself up onto it, now able to reach the window. 10,9. I bring my bound hands up and smash the window, cutting my hands with the shattered glass. 7,6. I place my hands on the shattered glass, cutting them more, and pull myself up trying to fit out the window. 5,4. I get my head out and pull my hands in front of me trying to wiggle the rest of my battered body out of the window. 3. Just a little bit more. 2. One more push. 1. I fall out of the window as the building explodes behind me, smashing the siding into me. I black out. "Sorry Bruce I tried..."

So that's how Nightwing survived, albeit barely. He was just a bit farther from the explosives then poor Jason was in the movie... Anyway I hope you all enjoyed! So please leave me a...
