Chapter 10: The Stories I could Tell

Robin P.O.V.

Batgirl's story was pretty good I guess, I feel exceedingly happy with the teams reactions, we are pretty awesome as the lesser known dynamic duo. Batgirl looks over at me biting her lip like shes nervous to ask something.

"Batgirl, just ask no need to be nervous" My comment snaps the team from their stunned daze by what we can do and look at Batgirl worriedly. She breathes deeply and smiles sheepishly, "well… will you tell us about your first time against the Joker?"

Inside I slightly freeze, it wasn't that bad… but still shook me up. On the outside I'm stoic and nod slightly as if that was a perfectly logical request. "Well my first time with Joker I wasn't alone. It must have been about eight months into my first year, so I was still eight. Umm… I think this was when Joker corrupted Harley. Yeah it was about a week after he pushed Harley Quinn into the Ace chemicals after torturing her in the morgue of Arkham, it was when he drove her insane. So we were going to stop his latest attempt to make the whole city have permanent smiles by drugging the water supply. We fought goons and Harley had he hyenas, those bites are more painful than a piranhas', and everything was going fine…" I trail off slightly; the next part was kind of fuzzy.

"This is where it gets muddled. Joker was about to push the barrels into the water supplies but Batman was bust fighting off Harley and her hyenas so I ran at him, flipped, and tackled him before the water could be contaminated. However… he had his laughing gas. He sprayed my with it and I was able to knock him out and handcuff him before I started laughing to much… but it took bats who knows how long to get to me and give me the antidote. All I remember is pain in my lungs and the feeling of I was drowning on air. I passed out afterwards."

The team looks at me with expressions of horror, but truly that wasn't too bad. I mean the first time I was kidnapped by him I died for like half an hour. (A/N: picture what he did to Jason but Dick was able to stop the bomb)

I look at their faces and sigh inwardly, their protective levels were about to go up. I can see it know. Them wanting constant updates from Gotham, worrying when they don't see me for a few days, com. calls in the middle of patrol to make sure I'm alright… this is going to be a nightmare!

I jump up and clap "so on that happy note how about I make us some cookies and we play some games!?" It really wasn't a question because I'm basically already out the door and thinking about making my mom's snickerdoodles.

~~~ The Stories I could Tell ~~~

No P.O.V.

The team is still in silence. They just couldn't believe that the baby of the team would have to deal with this. When Robin left they all watched him leave and thought, Look at him, so strong when the world is cruel. He shouldn't have to deal with any of this pain, he shouldn't have to be injured or fight, or be in this situation he is now… a boy stuck in that hot girls body.

Kaldur turns on the television to try and get the team's minds off of what Robin told them, it almost works. Camp red head starts talking about what they should do this summer and how if the boys ever saw Joker he would be pummeled, you know regular sort of sibling talk. Then the scent of heaven breezed into the room. Everyone got up to see where that delectable scent was coming from, Roy gently picked up Batgirl and they all walked into the kitchen.

There was Robin in a classic red apron, hair back by a baby blue bandana, that matched her eyes if you knew them, and covered in flour and cinnamon sugar. She looked like a cross between and sixties house wife and a sexy maid. Roy placed Batgirl in one of the chairs and then leaned on the island himself while the rest of the team was filing in.

Robin smiled as they entered, lingering slightly on Batgirl, "the cookies will be ready in just a few minutes! Soon you'll taste my famous snickerdoodles, it's a family secret" no but the redheads noticed how Robin frowned just slightly at the end of the sentence.

Small talk filled the room as the team waited for the cookies. The oven beeped and Robin hurriedly took the cookies out glaring at Wally just daring to try and take any. The team had to wait an agonizing five minutes before the cookies were cool enough. Robin made Wally go last in taking cookies and all that was heard was dedicated eating and happy sounds.

"Robin you have to teach me to bake! My cookies never turn out this good." Robin smiled and cackled at her, "Of course I will, mine are so good because I've had practice and the best teaches ever." Robin thinks of his mom, Alfred, and the strong man who could make the best apple pies. Once all the cookies were devoured the team headed back to the living room, Robin once again claiming the pleasure of carrying Batgirl.

~~~ The Stories I could Tell ~~~

Once everyone was settled the discussion of what games to play dominated the time, they eventually settled on truth or dare because Kaldur, Megan, and Conner had never played. Wally starts.

"Artemis Truth or dare?"

"Dare."

There are a few moments of Wally with a thinking face then a brilliant smile, "I dare you to kiss Roy! Yes, I'm okay with you kissing him." Artemis scowls but walks over to Roy and plants a long steamy kiss on Roy. He looks surprised and disgusted, the feeling was apparently mutual when Artemis made a sour face and wiped her lips after finishing. She went back to sitting next to Wally on the love seat where he kissed her cheek and she smacked the back of his head.

It's Artemis's turn to ask, "Okay Robin. Truth or dare?"

"Truth"

Artemis smiled, "I want another story! Tell us your scariest encounter with a baddie."

Robin mulled over it for a minute, "When I was eleven Bats and I were fighting Scarecrow, on the roof of a skyscraper. He wanted to release some kind of fear toxin into the ventilation of the building so in the morning everyone in the building would get hit. He ended up hitting me with the fear gas instead, every time someone is hit by the gas your hallucinations and fear are worse, this wasn't my first time. Then I was thrown off the roof and free falling over fifty stories while tied up. I escaped midair and threw a pellet down so that I would survive the landing, but with the fear gas running through my veins, the whole experience was terrifying." Not to mention the whole time I was imagining my family falling to their deaths.

"My turn to decide. Hmmm… Roy, truth or dare?" he put on his most devilish smile, Roy shudders slightly.

"Okay Rob. Having played with you before I know both options are bad sooo…" he looks at the other for help, everyone but Wally and Batgirl are giving him confused looks. Batgirl and Wally have their heads down in prayer for their fallen comrade. "truth" it was a whispered squeak but Robin heard.

Her face lit up like a kid on Christmas and a tinkling cackle was echoed off the walls, "Asterous. Why would you leave us?" The evil smile was still in place but there was now a hint of betrayal and hurt on Robin's face.

Roy had the honor to look guilty. "I didn't leave you per say-" Roy was interrupted by Wally, "yes you did! You totally abandoned us!" Wally looked away no longer having sympathy for the archer. The rest of the team besides Batgirl looked confused. Kaldur had an inkling of what was going on and had felt hurt when Roy left but never realized how deep it cut on the two younger boys.

Roy looked down in shame, "I didn't want to leave you guys, just the League. I know I should have been nicer to you, and I know I should have called and visited more but I didn't want to run into Ollie. Besides I knew Rob would find my apartment the minute I bought it." He looked at his two brothers; they still didn't look at him. "I don't know what you want me to say. I'm sorry alright! I shouldn't have left you two! I get now you guys couldn't have followed me, you are too young to leave your… mentors and I know that I really hurt you guys for saying you weren't ready for the world, when obviously you were. But I was angry! They treated us like kids when I was an adult."

The team seemed satisfied with the answer but Robin and Wally only looked slightly happy. Robin sighed, bot up and walked over to Roy, he looked scared as if he thought Robin was going to drop kick him. Robin just fell onto his lap and sighed again. Wally went over and fell on top of Robin and sighed as well. Batgirl was a little left out that she couldn't join the dog pile but Roy looked happier than the team had ever seen him. He stood up carried both boys and dropped them on the couch with Batgirl and they all started laughing, the rest of the team was put out, not being able to join in the inside jokes.

Finally Batgirl spoke up, "Let's not play truth or dare anymore, let's play I, Never! Wally can break out his candy stash and we can use those instead of alcohol." Robin's head flies up, "Candy?! You would let me eat this candy?" The redheads pale and Roy grabs Robin, "No candy! You are not getting candy until you get to an age where you are less energetic after only two hours of sleep." Robin plops down and pouts, but this is a sexy as heck pout that makes the males kiss the plump lips, Wally runs to get the candy before he does something he regrets.

The team circles up after the humans briefly explain the rules to the metas. Roy starts,

"Never have I ever gotten so hyper I destroyed a house with pranks and paint." Robin and Wally each give a piece of candy and grumbled that he helped too.

Next was Wally, "Never have I ever known about the watchtower before July 4th" He stares directly at Roy and doesn't notice when Robin winces. When Roy hands over his candy Robin throws hers at him. The other sidekicks present that day stared at her.

"Okay. SO I knew since the watchtower was built. I saw the designs when I hacked the Bats system and started fixing the math on it because I didn't know it was top secret. I just kept my expression blank; when I looked surprised it was because of Roy's reaction. I however, was totally mad at the mentors for not trusting you guys and keeping us away from the sun mission." She looked away after that saying she was done discussing it.

Next to Wally Artemis speaks up, "Okay then… it's my turn…" she pauses thinking about all the things she has done, it was hard to think of what she hasn't done. "Never have I ever… beaten my mentor at something." She wasn't expecting many candies for this, she just wanted to feel better about the fact.

Robin and Batgirl shared a smug smile and high fived as they both handed in pieces. Roy gave a piece as well. Roy simply stated, "I beat him in a bet about Robin and Batgirl and Batman." The team all look at the two bats.

Robin pipes up first, "I have beaten Bats in a lot of things such as Poker, Monopoly, Bets hehe never take a bet against me…, you know and some other stuff…." He draws off on purpose to let the team shudder and wonder, such a dramatic.

Batgirl smiles and continues the story, "However, Robin and I had a thing going against Bats. Who could not eat any of Agent A's cookies the longest. It went on for a good week, Robin and I were usual if only slightly sugar free but Bats mood went down. It was hilarious how a few cookies totally made him crabby and likely to snap at the slightest thing. We so won." The bats smiled evilly at each other. The team subconsciously agreed to never mess with those two.

M'gann lit up when she realized it was her turn. "I never had a league nickname." Grumbles were heard by the original trio and surprisingly Batgirl as they all gave candy. Robin spoke up for all of them, "Some of them include, Little Bird, Destructive Duo for Wally and me, Terrifying Trio for us three guys, a whole slew of speedster jokes for wally, Roy has some I won't say because he'll strangle me, and Batgirl and I are called the lesser known Dynamic Duo"

Conner grunts and simply states "I never had an involuntary kiss" Robin and Batgirl blush and look away from each other. There is complete silence, as the team stares.


A/N: I know another filler chapter sorry. Please send suggestions to get this story lively again! I tried to make this chapter longer because of the wait and as a Birthday present to myself.

If anyone can guess the strongman who is good at making apple pies I'll give them a shoutout!
