Pushing things away

The teen titans decided to give their bird three more days when he failed to return that Monday morning. By Thursday the place was chaos as they carry everything that they can think of that they can use as A weapon in the main room. All imagined scenario was aired out about their leader's absent and their panic grew.

Beast Boy had done an improbable by morphing into the Looney tune road runner and was the first to reach gotham sans plan, sans friend and sans clue.

The three that Remain have to squeeze inside their plane that is stuffed with 95% of the teen titans tower furniture. They left the tower barren.

It was a riot when the entire Gotham witness 4 hysterical heroes having a meltdown in their city.

Dick who was celebrating adulthood by sipping his non alcoholic beer when the live news on tv cause him to choke and cough.

"what the - " he gape seeing his friend falling apart on TV.

" whatever are we going to do master dick? " Alfred is beginning to tell apart who among the three boys are the dominant persona As Bruce even without the voice to clue him in.

" first we will wait for midnight... "

Damian rarely surface unless it's gym time but right now the smirk on Bruce face was his. He Crack his Knuckles before he finished. " I'm going to beat the living sh.t of them. "

That late night..

The teen titans were hanging out gossiping in one if the tallest rooftop of gotham. They had run out of people and ideas to track their friends whereabouts and was resign to maybe ask for dark Knights help. The dark Knight was a newer hero in the scene and so the latest gossip they are having is about whether or not a guy in a bat suit is real or not.

Batman was very displeased when he overhear them recapping his novice mistake of chasing a criminal using a skateboard and although it did increase his cool factor, he lost several points in the maturity and seriousness criteria. Jason pointed out that theirs is A weekend job and they couldnt afford a car yet in defense when the other robin glare at him for the skateboard shenanigans.

Anyway..

"stay away from gotham" a growl came out from the Shadow causing the 4 kids to jump.

Undeterred by the curt greetings, cyborg step forward and said, "good evening mr. Batman sir we are not here to intrude in your city... If you could just help us find our team mates we. Will be out of your hair i promise."

Batman was not impressed. "your robin is dead." he said dismissively. "Im giving you midnight and i expect you to leave my city."

Before they could protest, batman got swallowed by the darkness.

"That was harsh dude." Tim remark managing to show up in the conscious portion of batman's mind to comfort dick.

Damian misinterpreting agreed. " . i didnt even get out a single punch."

Dick bittered shot back. " i dont think youll do better with your team tim tim"

He look at his team- the teen titans - from a distance with longing, sadness and pain.

Tim give him an awkward pat before he made his exit.

Damian sit beside dick and nudge him with a shoulder. " whos that ugly green goblin?"

Dick briefly smile. " yeah thats beast boy. Did you know..."

Damian heard it before but for the sake of his friend...he will listen to it .

"What happen?!" Alfred exploded when a week later young justice showed up and then...this at 4 am.

Batman humiliated wanted to hide in a cave and stay there. He was giving the young justice the same treatment that he give the teen titans unfortunately it didnt work that way.

Batman still grabbing his injure side, limp his way at the kitchen seat and groan in pain. "Sorry alfred." He said meekly.

Tim was kinda amuse in a suicidal way about what happen. "I got my ass handed but fortunately damian and dick's combined and totally different attack took them by surprise."

Alfred raised an eyebrow. "So what you mean is, you tried the same technique with the teen titans with this young justice?"

Bruce wayne remove his cowl and hide his face on the palm of his hands. Alfred watch with awkward fascination as three different voices argue.

"Drake you are awful back there!" Damian was horrified.

"Hello?! I am youngest on that team." Tim said defensively. "And you didnt tell me that a month ago when i taught you some bo staff technique."

"Saying ' go stretch stick' like in dragon ball does not qualify." Dick inserted dazedly in the conversation. "I cant believe i did an epic failed back there!" He moan as he change the topic.

Alfred just sigh as he remove the first aid kit from the bathroom and help patch up his master.

The kids were still arguing among themselve as alfred clean him up as best as he could.

Damian slam one fist in the palm of his hand. "We need more training. We cant defend gotham ...just by pooling our combined training"

"Well it did work." Tim rubbed the back of his head absentmindedly.

"Before." Damian snap. Without any warning he override the two older boys and declare " we are going on a field trip. Pennyworth please arrange my bag."
