Author's Note: I MADE BATMAN CRY! I'm sorry….. Only I'm not. Anyway, I know the last chapter was really short. I'm sorry. Kid Flash is up. I own nothing.

4. Kid Flash

After Robin had been taken away to the Batcave the team had made their way to the living room and flopped down on one of the several couches. No one spoke. Artemis looked upset, mostly with herself. Aqualad wore a blank expression normally reserved for Superboy who wore a scowl. Miss Martian was still crying quietly, it looked like she was falling asleep having cried herself into that state. Wally himself was sitting in Robin's favorite spot on the couch. She wasn't at the cave on a regular basis but when she was that was her spot on the couch. She would sit there and watch movies with them, or hack into the pentagon for Batman or just cause she wanted to keep her skills sharp.

Kid Flash looked down at his hands. What were they supposed to do now?

Central City Two Weeks Later

Wally knew he was bugging his uncle too much but he couldn't help it. He needed Barry to come with him to Gotham. Batman had said that Wally, the only member of the team that knew who Robin really was, could visit her himself on the condition that Barry come with him, in case of emergency. But that wasn't all of it. Batman needed Barry there to keep an eye on Diane while he was out on patrol. Not that he didn't trust Alfred, but even Alfred needed sleep at some point. Finally after a week of nagging Barry agreed not that he didn't want to check up on Diane but things in Central had been a bit crazy.

The second the team got wind that Wally was going to get to visit Robin they all began to freak out.

"Wait you know who Robin is!?" Artemis fumed. Wally nodded.

"I've known for a while. But to be fair he's known me three years longer than any of you." Aqualad nodded and placed a hand on Wally's shoulder.

"You will tell us how he is?" Wally nodded. M'ggan stepped forward holding a large vase of flowers.

"My uncle told me it's an earth tradition to send flowers to someone when they aren't doing well. Will you make sure he gets these please? We also have a card, from the team we just need you to sign it too." Wally nodded and smiled at M'ggan as she set the flowers down on a table and handed Wally a blue card with a similar bouquet on it and a red pen. Each of them had signed the card with their real name except for Superboy and M'ggan who had signed with their earth names, and each in a different color. Conner had signed in black, Kaldur in blue, Artemis in green and M'ggan in purple. Wally signed and took the flowers. Batman was waiting with Barry at the Zeta beam tube. Batman was only granting Wally access this once directly to the Batcave.

If Wally hadn't been so focused on seeing Diane he would have stopped to admire all of Batman's souvenirs. He and Bats had something in common after all, which was weird. Alfred showed him upstairs as Barry and Batman talked.

Diane's room was full of flowers of every kind. Bouquets were arranged on every flat surface. Alfred moved a particularly large arrangement from her bedside table and Wally put M'ggan's flowers down in its place. The flowers were almost all roses but M'ggan must have asked Robin what her favorite flower was at some point because the bouquet she had sent was comprised of lilies. There was only one other that contained lilies in the room and Wally read the card curiously as Alfred left the room.

Missing you. Get well soon. Barbra Gordon.

Most of the flowers seemed to be from her classmates or teachers but a few were from charities around Gotham, Wally knew that Diane volunteered a lot but not enough for all of this. Then again there would always be something about his best friend that he didn't know. Having no options left he turned to look at Diane. She was pale, too pale. Granted she was looking better than she had the day she had slipped into the coma, but not by much. Her deep black hair was laid around her head in a tiny shadow of a halo on the pure white pillow. She was too still it was unnatural.

Ever since he'd met her Robin was always bouncing around, never content standing still. Diane had been a little bit less energetic but he didn't see her nearly as often as Robin. It had always amazed Wally how she kept up the balance it required to be two people. Even he wasn't great at it, but that was because it was so hard for him not to use his powers. But Diane was the perfect hero because almost no one would suspect a girl to dress up as a boy to go fight crime. No one would suspect Gotham's darling to be able to do something like snap someone's arm with her bare hands. But that was what was so special about Diane. She almost seemed to have multiple personality disorder, but she was too in control for that to be true. He'd even seen her start to relax a little bit around the team.

But after this… He had no idea what would happen. He didn't even know if Batman, notoriously overprotective Batman, would even let her stay on the team. Let alone if she would want to stay. She would understand that it wasn't really M'ggan's fault but there was still the possibility that if, no when she woke up she might not want to be part of a team the was clearly broken now anyway. Robin's absence and more so the reason for it was eating them all alive from the inside out. Robin had been the balance to the team, the linchpin in their group. It wasn't that the others weren't capable of carrying on the team without her but they weren't the same, the team wasn't the same.

Wally sat down in the armchair next to the bed, watching Robin's still face.

"Come on Rob. Diane, we need you back. The team is falling apart without you. Come back."
