AN: Ok this is a 2 shot and as far as I know it will stay a 2 shot, though I may change my mind later. Today. Perhaps. IDK.

But this is a Chalant fic. I luv Chalant and I will always luv Chalant no Bette can keep apart this ship!

AHHHHHHH! Sorry coffee mode.

Everyone stared in complete horror as Joker grabbed Zatanna by the arm, pulling her close to his face. He pulled out one of his switchblades and twirled it in his fingers infront of her. He heard the desperate pleads from her teammates as he lowered his arm to aim.

"NO! Don't do it!"

"Zatanna!"

Joker laughed evilly as the Team yelled in terror as he stabbed Zatanna in the gut. Her eyes widened in pain as she gasped for air.

He stared straight in to the terrified sapphires, a sickening grinn plastered on his face. "What's the matter girly? Why so serious?"

With that he yanked the switch blade out with a disgusting sound. Crimson liquid trickled down from the wound as Zatanna staggered backwards.

"Wasnt that thrilling kiddies?" Joker asked quite pleased with himself.

Suddenly he turned and ran laughing manically.

Zatanna started falling as Joker ran. Robin raced up from behind and caught her. "I got you Zee, its ok."

He lowered her carefully to ground and cradled her upper body. Zatanna stared up at him, her lip quivering.

The others had formed a small circle around the two, none of them had bothered to run after Joker.

Miss Martian squeezed her eyes closed as Superboy put his arm tightly around her. Artemis clenched her fists while Kidflash put a hand on her shoulder. Aqualad had a look of failure on and pressed his comn link.

"Aqualad to cave."

Zzzt

"Batman here," came a gruff voice.

"What's wrong?"

"Joker."

"What happened?"

"We did have the upper hand, however he managed to grab Zatanna, and injured her."

"How severely?"

"Very. Get here as soon as possible, I don't think we can move her to the Bioship."

"Very well, is Joker..."

"He escaped."

"Alright, call paramedics. Batman out."

Aqualad sighed and looked at his teammates.

"Batman and Paramedics are on their way. Until then try and stop the bleeding."

Robin gently pulled Zatanna closer to him. She gasped as she felt a searing pain erupting in her stomach.

Robin nuzzled the top of her head with his own in attempt to soothe her. He reached into one of the pockets in his utility belt and pulled out a roll of gauze. As he began wrapping the wound Zatanna cried silently.

"R-Robin-"

"Hush Zee, dont talk, save your energy. I'm almost done."

"I-it hurts."

Robin put the tips of his fingers on her lips.

"I know Zee, I know. Don't worry helps on the way."

He then started stroking the rest of her features softly.

Neither one acknowledged the presence of the rest. It didn't matter anyway.

Robin held Zatanna's hand as they waited for paramedics. On occasion she'd drift into sleep, from which Robin would awaken her by gently shaking her slightly. It wasnt good

to fall asleep after such trauma to the intestines. (Note: please don't use this if you're writing a paper or something cause, its probably not true.) "C'mon Zee, you can't got to sleep just yet."

Zatanna cried softly and rubbed her cheek against Robin's chest as they waited. The pain was nearly unbearable. She squeezed his hand tightly and prayed that it would be over soon.
