Well done to those of you who guessed the last chapter was Treasure Planet! With Dick and Jim and Slade as Silver! Well done to cutie0612 for guessing first! So can you guess what film this is from and which character is which? Put your answer in the review!
Damian didn't know how he had got himself into this mess. He had been on a mission with his brothers in the middle of the rainforest and had some how got separated. After an hour of hiking through the jungle, he'd happened upon a pack of panthers. He'd almost managed to out run them, but he'd run out of ground. Turning away from the edge of the cliff he faced the pack which was inching ever closer.
His hands twitched near his belt. Had these been thugs he wouldn't have hesitated, but these were animals. No matter how much danger he was in, he didn't think he had it in him to hurt an animal. Besides, they outnumbered him by a lot.
He inched as close to the edge as he could without falling over, glancing down he saw a rushing river several feet below. If the fall didn't kill him the water would.
From the corner of his eye he saw something coming towards him, he turned his head and squinted through the darkness, relief flooded him when he realised it was Todd.
His elder brother was swinging towards them, he parted through the big cats, but the momentum took him once again out of reach.
Damian groaned, turning back to the deadly creatures who, after a momentary distraction, were hunting him once again.
Suddenly, something hit the young Robin from the side and he was airborne, Red Hood clutching him to his chest.
'Don't worry Demon Child. I got you. You're safe now.'
Just as he said it, the rope above them hit an overhanging tree, forcing them to collide with it and the rope to tangle them against the tree with Jason on the top and Dami on the bottom facing the river below.
'Maybe I'm new to this whole rescuing thing but this, to me, might be considered a step backwards. Wouldn't you say?'
'Nope.' Red Hood grunted. 'This is ok...this is alright...we can figure this out.' In truth he was extremely embarrassed that he hadn't noticed the tree, he had been so focused on not dropping his brother. Batman was going to have his hide for this if Damian didn't beat him to it.
A cracking sound echoed around them and the tree flinched downward.
Damian, ever the calm one sighed. 'I hate you.'
The fall was terrifying enough without being trapped against a tree. As it was, the tree took most of the brunt of the fall, which was most likely the only reason they survived. They hit the water and wood brought them back to the surface, thankfully the right way up, and began descending through the rapid water. The boys couldn't help but yelp as they crashed through the rapids, hitting against rocks as they went. Finally, they came to calmer waters and the tree floated, bobbing in the water.
Damian coughed the water from his lungs and glared ahead, wishing he could direct it towards Todd. This was all his fault.
'I don't know about you, but I'm getting all funned out.'
There was silence from the other side of the tree until Damian heard Jason mumble a quiet 'uh oh.'
This day was just getting better and better.
'Don't tell me. We're about to go over a huge waterfall.' He deadpanned.
Jason sighed beneath his helmet. 'Yep.'
'Sharp rocks at the bottom?'
'Most likely.'
Damian's face became hard. 'Bring it on.'
Neither could hold in the scream as they went over the edge and descended into the fine mist below.
