The fight started with a bang. The Titans and Justice League were fighting the goons well the bat family went after Talia. Luckily Slade or his parents had yet to make an appearance but that didn't mean they were getting off easy. His parents and Slade were going down today and he would finally be free of the problem he was burdened with.
Glancing at Talia and Damian, Dick frowned. His brother looked conflicted, well who wouldn't be it was his mother. Then there was Bruce who was obviously not putting his all into the fight. Making sure that his brothers had Talia handled and that the rest had to Goons ready Dick snuck out of the room quietly. He had to go find the weapons that Slade made him use when he was training him. It was obviously a bad idea to go out alone but everyone else was busy and he was still leery about letting his brothers and Bruce anywhere near his parents after what happened last time. Then there was the problem that they would have to take on Slade and he was on a whole other level.
Rushed footsteps were heard from behind him and Dick spun around to defend himself but signed in relief when his two brothers came into view.
"What the hell Grayson, we turn around and you are gone" Damian yelled angrily
"I thought you learned to not run off alone" Jason hissed
Dick sighed and rubbed the back of his neck. "Sorry I know I shouldn't have left… But… I'm trying to find some weapons"
"You're so going to get it later" Jason muttered
Damian crossed his arms and looked around "So where are these weapons"
Dick smiled and motioned for them to follow him. "Come on follow me"
The three brothers continued down the hallways of the house until they reached stairs that lead downstairs.
"If I'm right I t should be down here, Slade keeps all his weapons down underground"
When they finally reached the ground Damian and Jason stopped in shock. What stood before them was a huge room filled with guns and different types of weapons. There were so many it looked like they were planning for a raid of some sort.
"Why the hell do they have so many weapons" Damian yelled finally. Even for villains there was too many weapons.
Dick frowned and walked towards a chest and placed his hand on top of it. "It's part of their plan to take over the world but they are still missing one piece"
"And that is" Jason asked simply
Sighing and closing his eyes for a second Dick looked up and smiled "Me, I'm the last piece of the puzzle" he said as he ignored his brothers stars and opening the chest. Inside was a pair of swords with the word Logos imprinted on the handle.
"These are them" Dick said sadly
"What is going on" Jason shouted
"Look I'll explain later for now all you need to know is that the only way we will win is with these' Dick answered
"But..." Damian began
Dick interrupted Damian "Do you trust me"
"What does that have…?" Damian began but was yet again interrupted
"I said do you trust me" Dick shouted louder
"We trust you" Damian finally answered as Jason nodded
Dick smiled and turned around to the stairs "Then follow me"

Leading his two brothers back to the battle field Dick looked around trying to find his other brother and Bruce. Now that Jason and Damian knew where he was it was going to be impossible to go off alone. He needed to get Bruce and Tim so they could take down Slade and his parents.
Catching a glimpse of the rest of his family Dick made his way through the battle field. "Bruce, Tim leave these guys to everyone else we need to find Slade and my parents"
Bruce hit Talia one more time knocking her unconscious and looked at Dick. "We can't leave them it's our fight not theirs"
Honestly he didn't have to play it that way, he just wanted to take Talia down for good. "If you want to play it that way I could say the same thing it's my fight not yours"
"That's not what I meant" Bruce huffed
"Bruce lets go Talia can wait" Tim spoke before he made his way over to Dick and his other to brothers.
"Fine if you think I'm allowing you to end this without me you are wrong" Bruce clenched as he took one last glance at Talia and followed his sons.
Making his way through the battle field once again. Dick took a deep breath once they had left and looked around the area. He had no idea where his parents or Slade where but if he knew them they were hiding in plain sight. That could either mean they were at the Wayne building or at the very end of this hallway. But he was one hundred percent sure they were at the end of the hallway waiting for Dick to make his appearance. They thought they had won and that he had fell right into their trap but they were dead wrong they were not winning not this time.
Walking towards the end of the hallway Dick grabbed the handle of the door and turned to face his family. It was now or never right behind this door was the battle he has been waiting to end his whole life. It was finally time to end it and for once in his life he wasn't alone.
"Ready" Dick asked looking at his family who all nodded.
Nodding his head back Dick slowly opened the door and looked around to find a pitch dark room. He could see anything at all and that was a bad thing in the middle of a battle.
"I can't see anything." Tim said stating the obvious.
"No way I could tell" Jason shot back annoyed but still on his guard.
Ignoring his brothers Dick walked further into the room and looked for a light but found none. But was surprised when the lights suddenly turned on. Jumping slightly and looking at his brother's and father to see if they turned it on. He was soon scared when they were all right behind him also looking around the room to find the intruder.
"Well…well we have been waiting for you Richard" A cold icy voice that could not be mistaken said
Looking around the Dick came face to face with the man himself, Slade and of course standing right behind him like loyal dogs was his parents. He honestly did not see what they saw in him but he didn't care. Those people where never his parents and they had to go down and be punished for their crimes.
"Well Mon, Dad" Dick hissed as he glared at his parents. "It's so not nice to see you"
Mary and John smiled but didn't say anything. They were obviously waiting for their orders from Slade. But they would never get the chance to kill him because he was taking them down first. But if he only knew he was wrong because before anyone could move Slade looked at him and whispered one word that sent Dick's mind into a black haze.
Clutching his head and screaming, Dick looked up at the three with pained tears in his eyes. Pulling at his hair as if trying to stop the pain Dick looked away from the laughing three and fell to the ground as his brothers and father knelt beside him.
"What are you doing" Jason yelled with panic in his voice
"Stop it" Damian yelled in fury as Bruce charged at the three but was easily blocked.
Dick watched as Bruce, Tim and Jason ran after his parents and Slade as Damian stayed beside him protecting him. If he wasn't in so much pain right now he would have made a joke about Damian looking like a knight in shining armor. His thoughts were suddenly cut off by another pain that made the last one seem like nothing. Screaming louder as the pain in his head increased Dick fought to stay conscious. Images started filling head and Dick finally knew what Slade did to him and he stopped screaming. Slade was giving him back his true memory's but for what reason.
He finally got his answer when the images finally stopped and he lowered his hand off his head and looked at Damian with frightful eyes. They was truly only one way this fight was going to end, he had to sacrifice himself. But if he can plan this out jut right he could die saving to world and not destroying it.
Getting up off the ground Dick looked at Damian and smiled before grabbing his swords and walking away without a second glance.
"Where the hell are you going" Dick heard Jason yell as he made his way to Slade.
"What are you going idiot" Damian yelled as he heard him chasing after him.
"Dick" Bruce and Tim yelled together
Ignoring his brothers and family, he ran over to Slade and took a glace back to find that his parents were holding them back, they had finally lost. Looking back to Slade Dick nodded and started handing Slade the sword which he took fast and easy.
"Any last words" Slade said smiling with victory.
Dick shook his head and looked down at the ground as Slade raised his sword to attack
"Dick" His three brothers and father yelled as the Slade plunged the sword towards his heart. Smiling and taking one last glance at his brothers. Dick closed his eyes and waited for the sword to connect but was surprised when it never did. Slowly opening his eyes Dick looked shocked at Slade who had a sword plunged straight through his heart. As Slade fell dead to the ground in a pool of blood Dick looked up to his savior who was no other than…
Sorry for the cliffhanger… any ideas on who should have killed Slade.
