Chapter four
Jokester pov
Over the next few days I'm either ignored like I have the plague or bother to no end on details that don't seem to matter to me. The first is by the two glarers, the little robin and the main bats himself, the later,'EVERYONE else. Apparently I'm a shines new toy that either needs breaking or to be played with to no end. Roy is the worst asking me about my earth and what Jason was like then, the guy had so MANY questions I'm surprised I can still hear. The only time they don't bother me is when I'm sitting with Jay.

Jay seems to recuperating well, as he always has after his mishap with that pit. He tries his hardest for his team but even I can tell he's wearing thin and that he needs his rest, even if he denies it. Another noticeable thing if I'm not in the room with Jay someone else is but there's never more than one. Thinking nothing of it I kept on sneaking in while he's away to see certain things daily. One, is that a good portion of the time has a person of the bat family in there. They're silent as the dead and they always grip his hand in a deadlock. Two is that Roy has a thing for just sitting and starring at Jason, sometimes he'll mumble something, but that's rare.

Other than Jays recuperation there were only those few random crimes, nearly enough to keep the bats busy until this morning.

I was sitting in the cave talking with Jason when the entire house seemed to flood the cave. Jason looked like he wanted to get up probably would have if I didn't give him a gentle shove back.

"What's going on?" We both asked.

None of them stopped to answer until Nightwing finally stated," mass break out at Arkham."

Getting up I gave Jason the evil eye before grabbing my mallet. Someone grabbed the back of my collar and started to drag me out of the cave. Looking around I noticed a steel faced Arsenal.

"We have our own problems." He explained. Looking around me I noticed Starfire and Red Robin following close behind, with equally stony faces.

Once out of ear shot to Jason he let go but kept up his brisk pace. Tim was the first to speak up,
"What do we got?"

Roy looked back at us with a grim face.
"An untitled"


Jay pov

I rolled over with a groan, remembering exactly why I was on my back. Looking around I could hear someone getting angry, but then again when isn't there someone yelling in the cave. As the fog of sleep cleared from my mind I realized it was a chic.
"Well that narrows things down"I mumbled sitting up with a pained huff. Geez, I really need to get over myself.

I stood up and took a step before realizing my ankle was BROKEN. Ouch. Falling back to the lump of mattress called a bed I looked around spying exactly what I needed. A crutch, Alfie your a saint.

Giving it another go, successfully make it out of the closed off area to see a flaming head of red hair. Great just what I needed. An angry oracle. Not really caring who she was yelling at I made my way over to the giant monitor she was yelling at. She spun around to face me. I froze, my eyes glued to the screen.

" I must be delusional Babs, cause I sure as he know that isn't my team fighting an-" she broke me off.

" Jason, I-" she was interrupted by Tim.
" Hey, uh oracle a little help here?" He almost begged out of breathe.
"Yeah, how we getting rid of this thing sweets?"
"Is that Tim and jokester?" I practically yelled making my way over to the console. And to my not so surprised self, it was. Roy, kori, Tim , and jokester were all going at it with one untitled. Great bunch of idiots.

"What the literal fuck are you doing?" I yelled into the com, I swear everyone flinched.

" Well hello there, Jay! How was your nap. You know what save that for later how do keep this guy down?" Jokester started.

"You can't-" interrupted again this time kori,
" but Ja-"
I interrupted her. " you can't "I ground out" now lose it and get back to base."

"That's easier said than done Jay" Harper finally spoke up.
" I don't care how you do it just DO IT, and Harper?" He grunted to let me know he heard, or that's what I assumed it meant." I want a full report when you get back." To that I got no reply, how shocking.

I turned to Babs who was holding a blanket,a light one but still one none the less. Seeing her reminded me that I was in the cave, which right now was quite chilly.

She sat me in the chair by the computer and wrapped the blanket around me.
"Thanks Babs." I mumbled, not really sure what to say to her. Turning to watch my team she turns the monitor off.

I went to object when she faced me," No Jason. They're fine. How are you?" I didn't miss how she turned the communicator audio on in her headset.

"Fine" I sighed suddenly tired again. She gave me a pretty mean bat glare, which usually doesn't work on me, but it's Barbra.

" okay sore" she sighed.

" Jay it should be physically impossible for you to be up right now."

I have a chuckle while I leaned back."That's me doing the impossible."

She gave something between a weak chuckle and a sigh." Why don't you nap jay they won't even arrive for another half an hour." I made a noise in agreement seeing as to how I was already almost asleep. And that blackness just seemed so inviting, who could resist?
