I don't own anything, but Liza.

December 20th:

Damian:

Damian woke up to a beeping sound and he sat up and looked around. That was when he saw a faint glow from Atlas' boat so he got up and walked over to the right boat and put his hand in there and pulled what ever was in there out. When the object was out he saw it was a phone, and smirked now understanding Atlas' weird act.

He looked at the phone and saw it beeping because it was at twenty percent battery. Damian also saw that Atlas had left the texting up and had typed in instructions on how to escape. He then realized she had spent her time analyzing her cell and how to get out, and had typed it down for him when she heard the guards coming for her. Damian read through her analyses and turned the phone off to save the power and looked around the room and saw he didn't have what she had in his cell like a rock on the floor. He sighed in defeat and then kicked Atlas's boot in frustration and heard a jingle.

Damian then reached into her other boot and pulled out a set of keys. He smirked and quickly put the pieces together that she must of snagged them when struggling against the guards and slipped them in her boots just in case he didn't have when she did in her cell. Damian then went to the door and started testing keys on his door until he found the right one and unlocked his door.

He then made his way out of the cell and went on the hunt for Atlas' location. Luckily, Lady Luck was starting to be on his side because he found Atlas quickly and without any trouble. Once inside the room Atlas was in he glared at the sight, she was out cold her feet on the ground, but was dangling from a chain by her wrist. Damian let out a huff of frustration, Atlas was almost done with physical therapy after getting shot by the Joker and tearing some muscles in her shoulder and this was not going to help her.

Though that wasn't the only problem, she had a stab wound in the right leg and the knife lodged in it to prove it. Her shirt was torn up and she was covered in cuts and bruises, but what worried him the most was the stab would she had in her left side. The wound was dripping blood and there was already about a pint of blood on the floor. "You better not die on me, Atlas, Todd really wouldn't forgive me then and neither would Drake," Damian said and looked around until he found the other end of the chain and he released it from where it was being held to. With that Atlas fell to the ground with a thud that made Damian cringe a little, though on the bright side Atlas groaned in response and woke up.

She looked around tiredly and spotted him and frowned and asked,"Damian, what are you doing here? You're suppose to have escaped and getting help."

"Do you honestly think I would leave you here, Atlas, Grayson wouldn't be pleased with me neither would Father, Drake, or Todd if they found out I left you," Damian said walking over to her and helped her on to her feet, but ended up supporting most of her wait.

"Hm...Jason, what about about him?" Atlas said completely out of it, but at least she was conscious.

Damian sighed and started to help her out of the room, they got about fifteen feet when they heard movement and yells. He frowned it was now obviously known he had escaped and he knew they would assume he would come after Atlas which he did. Atlas heard the shouts and frowned, she seemed to be getting heavier and said,"Leave me."

"I can't do that, Atlas," Damian said sternly glaring at her.

"I'm slowing you down...Get out of here for the both of us," Atlas mumbled.

"You're a fool, Atlas, they'll kill you," Damian said.

"We'll find out, but remember I'm leverage right? Get out why you can, and get help," Atlas said and her knees buckled and Damian helped her sit against the wall.

"You better be alive when I came back, Atlas, or I'll bring you back and kill you myself then bring you back again," Damian said meaning what he said since he had the Lazarus Pits in the mountains to do so and make good on his promise.

Atlas chuckled and said,"Now I know why Tim and Jason call you,Demon...Eh, Damian the Demon, it doesn't fit. You're to caring to be a demon, even if your a brat," and Damian looked at her with an unreadable expression before he left. He didn't have any trouble avoiding trouble and escaping the mountain, though he did have trouble with his conscientious screaming at him with guilt for leaving Atlas.

It was nightfall when Damian stopped moving across the desert like plains of the Australian Outback. He was exhausted and dehydrated form being on the run for so long, he had even taken a break and tried to call Todd and Grayson, but he couldn't find a signal and the phone died after a while of trying. Damian was stood there in the dark feeling dizzy and looked around in a circle, until he noticed a faint glow, and with the last of his energy and went towards it and found a camp sight.

There was a couple outside their tent by a fire when he came into their view and they stood up quickly upon seeing someone approaching. They relaxed though when Damian came into view and they saw it was a kid. "Hey, are you alright, Mate?" the guy asked and Damian looked him woozy.

"Water," he mumbled and the girl jumped to her feet and got a water from her backpack and the guy caught him right as his legs gave away. Damian sat there woozy from the lack of water as the guy held onto him.

"Take it easy...," he said and his girlfriend helped Damian drink the water that he guzzled down.

"Wait is he?...Are you Damian Wayne?" the girl asked in a clear British accent.

"I need to make a phone call," Damian said.

"No, you're in no condition you are to get some rest, we'll call your family. You're dehydrated. Jordan, take him to the tent he needs rest and more water," the girl instructed and Damian looked at her guessing she was a nurse.

"Alright, Claire," Jordan said and Damian put up no fight as he was picked up and carried to the tent and was put on a sleeping bag. He had no strength to put up a fight even if he wanted to, so for the time being he would reluctantly take help from strangers. Claire then came into the tent and asked,"What is your families' number, so I can call them?"

Damian sighed and told her the one number he knew by heart, Grayson's. He then watched her make the call, though he couldn't concentrate on it much, since he was slipping into unconsciousness, which over took him before her conversation was over.

Dick:

Dick was passed out on the couch, he had accidentally fallen asleep on after searching for clues all day with Jason, when he was woken up by his phone. He sat up once the ringing started and looked around and saw Jason through the open bedroom door passed out. Dick then looked at his phone and grabbed it and answered it half awake,"Hello?"

"Hello, I'm calling because I found Damian Wayne...," a British girl said and this woke him up.

"You found him! Is he okay, where are you!" Dick demanded in an relieved and excited tone.

"I'm in the outback, I can't exactly give an exact location, but we'll stay put until you find us," the girl said, and he concluded at this she had a satellite phone if she had been able to make the call.

"That wont be a problem. Can you give me your number?" Dick asked and he grabbed a pen and paper and wrote her number down as she complied and gave it too him.

"Alright, can you hold for a moment?" Dick asked and the lady complied again.

He then put her on hold and called Barbara who answered by asking,"Did you find something?"

"Yeah, can you track this number and give me the exact coordinates of the location?" Dick asked and after a moment of silence she gave him the coordinates and he wrote them down.

"Thanks, Babs," Dick said sincerely.

"You just bring them home," Barbara said.

"Will do, tell Mar'i I love her and same to the twins for Jay. Your the best Babs, love you," Dick said.

"Love you too, Bird Brain," Barbara said and hung up.

Dick then got back to the other line with the British girl and said,"Watch, him please. We're on our way to come and get him," and they exchanged good byes and hung up.

He then jumped up and ran into the bedroom Jason was sleeping in and woke him brother and said,"Wake up Jay, I just got a call someone found Damian!" and Jason sat up and looked at him with a tired glare then went away as he processed what was said.

"Then let's go," Jason said and they packed their things and left.
