Hey guys I'm back! I'm so sorry for taking so long to update. My dad took away my surface and I had no way of writing so I'm sooo sorry. I'll try to be quicker this time with the chapters as much as I can this time even though I'm using the slowest laptop known to man that doesn't have word document.

So sit back, relax and...

ENJOY!

No POV

Renegade sat in the corner of the room with his knees brought up to his chin as he waited for Batman to come. He didn't want him to come but he needed him to, or the plan would be ruined and that would be a disgrace to all mercenaries around the world. There was no way in hell he would ever live it down and it would be a shame to the Wilson family.

He couldn't put his dad to shame, not ever. Not after all he did for him.

Renegade curled up even more thinking about his dad. He missed him so much, so much that it was hurting him. He had no way to know he was ok. Was he okay? How was he holding up? Is he still alive? Was he even worried . . . for Ren?

Renegade shook the thoughts out of his head. His dad was fine, he was doing good, alive and he did care . . . unlike Batman. Renegade couldn't see him as Bruce, not even when he was Nightwing. He would always just call him 'B' so he couldn't tell the difference of what name he was referring with. He watched Bruce meld with Batman until they both became one. Batman a man that never once cared for him, blamed me for so many things and pointed out every flaw from the missions I used to go to.

"Dick" He heard as the door slowly opened. Batman stepped into the room as he looked around. Renegade shot up and ran into Batman's arms. Renegade wrapped his arms around Batman and buried his face in his chest. "Dad" He said happily, looking up at Batman and smiling. Batman smiled back at him and stroked his hair as his other arm supported Renegade's back. "Hello, son" Batman said softly, "Here" Batman removed the inhibitor collar and replaced it with an arm band. "That should be more comfortable."

Batman continued to stroke his hair and Renegade pressed into each one. Batman looked at him, never taking one second to look away, he never wanted to lose his son again. His son meant everything to him, it just took him longer to remember but better late then never.

"We're going to have a mission debrief and the team wants you to come along." Batman informed him. "No, I don't want to be anywhere around them. Why can't we just stay here. You and me" Renegade suggested, looking Batman straight in the eyes. Batman hesitated to speak for a quick second that wouldn't have been spotted by any untrained eye. . . . but Renegade wasn't untrained.

Renegade frowned and backed away from Batman, shaking his head. Batman's heart broke at the sight, he never wanted to upset him in any way. Batman reached forward but Renegade back away once again, continuously shaking his head from side to side. "Just don't" Renegade said weakly. "Dick" Batman said softly, pulling down his cowl and then gently removing Renegade's.

Renegade felt the urge to snap Batman's fingers as he removed his mask but he continued to picture him as a dad so the task would be done. To see his dad he would do anything and manipulate as much people as it took.

"Dick, please don't push me away. I really do want to spend time with you but I can't, no matter how much I want to. If you don't want to go on the mission I'll respect your decision." Batman said as he pulled Renegade back into a hug. After long silence Renegade sighed. "If you want me to then I'll go. Just for you" Renegade answered. "Thank you, Dick. Thank you so much" Batman whispered as he tightened his grip on Renegade.

Renegade accepted the hug and rubbed Batman's back to reassure him that he wasn't going anywhere. . . yet that was. Renegade put on his mask and gently pulled the cowl over Batman's head. When he was done he smiled at Batman. "We should go" Renegade said. Batman nodded and led him out of the room and into the debriefing room where the team was. All sat around the table, awaiting the arrival of the two.

They sent a smile towards Renegade who just stared ahead boredly. He sat down three seats away from everybody and crossed his arms and glared intensly at the mentors. The mentors cringed but got on with the debriefing.

"Ok, team. Your mission is to get data out of Lex Corp Science Lab for us. There has been rumours that he is trying to recreate to the formula for Blockbuster." Black Canary said. "Some of you have had an encounter with it in the past."

"Nasty stuff right there but it was nothing we couldn't handle. Right, guys?" Wally bragged. Kaldur and Conner smirked slightly while Renegade rolled his eyes, causing hair to fall over his right eye. It said "I don't care right now. Period."

"Anyways, we will put you into three teams and send you to different parts of the building and some to keep a look out. It is crucial the data is recovered by the chosen team. We're counting on you all" Black Canary stated.

"Artemis, Red Arrow, Bumblebee, Wondergirl, Blue Beetle you're team Beta and will be gaurding from above." Green Arrow stated.

"Kid Flash, Bart, Mal you're team gama and will be doing a ground perimeter" Flash said. The two speedsters high fived.

Aqualad, Lagoo Boy you're also team gama will be doing a perimeter in the water." Aquaman announced. The two Atlantians nodded.

"Ms. Martian, Beastboy will be doing a full perimeter check" Manhunter said.

"Robin, Batgirl you're job is to hack the camera feed from the vents" Green Arrow said.

"And Red Hood and Renegade will be team Alpha. Their job is to get the data we need and anything that could be useful" Batman amended. "Any questions?"

"Why only them two? Shouldn't someone join them just in case?" Batgirl asked as she scratched the back of her head nervously.

Renegade started to talk before Batman could open his mouth.

"It's not like any of you can steal. You're all 'heroes'and we're being sent so we don't tarnish your reputation you've made." Renegade said plainly. "None of you could steal if your life depended on it."

"Because they have knowledge that we don't." Batman said in a strict voice after Renegade. Renegade shrugged and crossed his arms. He didn't give a shit and that was just naturally a trait in him. He was so honest and didn't care who he hurt.

"Since that's all, everyone go get suited up and meet back at the hangar." Batman said. They nodded and left, well, all except one. "I left a kevlar suit in your wardrobe earlier on before we brought you to the mountain. If you need weapons, it'll be in the hangar." Batman said. Renegade nodded and made his way out of the room.

When he reached his room, he opened the wardrobe and took out the black Kevlar suit. "Maybe a few tweaks will do" Renegade said to himself. He then got to work.

After five minutes he was done. The Kevlar suit had grey lines going along the sides of his legs and stopped at his waist and gloves that looked like bandages but his fingers were black. The left glove was a hologlove. His shoes were his usual knee high steeled toe combat boots. On his chest he had a Deathstroke-like armour on. The last touch (except for the weapons) he a grey mask with red lenses.

Renegade made his way to the hangar to see he was the first one there and so were the weapons. He took two black utility belts and put them across his chest. Along with a long chain attached to two stylish knives at each end which he wrapped around his waist. He also snagged a few throwing knives and a retractable Bo staff and swords.

That was then the team walked in and took notice in Renegade with their eyes nearly popping out. Renegade looked at them for a brief second but then looked down at his gloves and started to fit them on properly.

The mentors followed after. "Ok team, time for the mission. Get on the Bioship and fly to the location to start your mission" Black Canary announced.

The team nodded and walked into the Bioship. Renegade sat in the very front and Red Hood sat at his right while Batgirl sat at his left. The others took their seats.

Renegade got into a lotus position and meditated like he did when he was last in the ship to save Deathstroke.

"I have a feeling this mission will be successful. What about you, Renegade?" Aqualad asked. "Barely, unless you don't think about the security that one of you are going to set off, villains that will probably be there, the possibiltiy that the lab is probably going to blow up, some of you getting injured, me killing somebody and the likely hood of me saying 'I told you so' at the end of the mission when we're all in the water to escape the blast. But if that doesn't happen then you're right" Renegade stated non chalantly.

"Never thought about that." Ms. Martian frowned.

"Who here ever does" Renegade muttered before falling silent once again.
