"So how much trouble did you morons get into for that?" Artemis asked.
"Enough to not do it again." Wally retorted. "Especially when he kept insisting it was 'my fault'. I argued he was hit in the head and didn't know what he was saying, but it didn't work out well. Both of us got nailed for it."
"What was the punishment?" M'gann asked curiously,
"Confined to our bedrooms for week, no hero work for a month, and a severe telling off from the Batman. Yaaa, we learned our lesson."
To Wally's relief, the video started.
The fire brought the building down in a spectacular display. Somewhere in there were the two protectors of Gotham, Batman and Robin. The flames licked greedily at the old, rotting wood; smoke filled the air, the people the two heroes had saved from the fire fled. Where were the two heroes? More of the building collapsed in on itself, the fire getting higher, deadly to whoever becomes surrounded by it.
Suddenly, there is the corner of a cape - A canary yellow and black cape. The Boy Wonder's silhouette is seen standing in a doorway, hunched over and ...dragging something. Or someone.
Coughing severely, Robin gave a mighty heave, and cleared him and the unconscious Batman of the building just as it collapsed altogether. Falling to the ground by his motionless mentor, he tried to shield Batman from the sparks and flying debris. Robin weakly started shaking his shoulder.
"Batman! Batman, wake up." looking panicked, he put his ear to the Caped Crusader's chest, checking for a heartbeat. A relieved look passed his face, but was quickly countered by more worry. "Batman, please wake up!" he exclaimed, his voice and breathing getting shakier. He was not physically sound, not by a long shot. A look at either hero could tell you each could do with a week's bed rest.
The Boy Wonder raised himself onto shaky limbs, and slowly began dragging Batman to the Batmobile parked 10 feet away. Once near the trunk, he got out an oxygen mask and put it on his still unresponsive mentor. Now reassured that he could breathe, he hoisted him into the car, before, exclaiming,
"Aw, SHOOT!" He threw his hands up, running them through his hair anxiously. "I TOLD you you should have let me learn how to drive the Batmobile!" he shot Batman a pointed look, but got no response. Lowering himself into the driver seat, he started the engine.
"Luckily my powers of observation rival yours, so I'll be able to drive this baby like I've been doin it since I was three." he stated confidently. "Plus I've been practicing in the Porsch on weekends..." he muttered under his breath, then sped off.
End Video.
"I'm glad Batman was alright-" Kaldur said, but was cut off by M'gann's and Wally's cheers.
"He got to drive it! Whoo hoo!"
"Yay, he finally got to drive the batmobile!"
"Go Robin!"
Artemis simply elbowed Wally hard in the ribs and clicked the next video.
Lol, Robin's been practicing in the Porsch! Thanks for all your reviews, favs, and follows guys, they just keep coming in!
