Later that night

Hey Tim and damian. Are you ready for patrol? Dick asks.

We should be asking you that question, not the other way around. Damian says.

And why is that?

Because it's a wonder that father chose you three to be his partners. Damian counters.

Dick justs continues loading his utility belt. As jason comes out in his red hood uniform with Lydia not far behind him as the hooded girl.

Ok, you said that one of us will patrol with one of you and the other with someone else. So who is going with who? Tim now red robin asks.

Tim is with red hood, damian you're with me. Dick says.

Why does hooded get to go alone? Damian asks while pouting slightly. "Jason just chuckles. " what's so funny todd?!"

It's just the first time i have seen you somewhat ack like your age.

Tsk, i am positive that i don't know what you are talking about.

Yeah, sure.

Anyways hooded, you got the west side of gotham. Hood, red you got the north. Robin and I will take the south. And whoever finishes their section first they will work their way to the east. Any question? Nightwing explains. They all nod. "Head out". They all heads to their bikes.

(break)

I am fully capable of patrolling by myself. Robin states

I heard the last time that you did, you jump someone thinking that he knew information. Then he, the guy you jumped got away. Then someone was found hanging from a lamp post. Nightwing counters.

Robin glares. " that's privileged information. You hack the computer."

Nightwing smirks. " nope. And why would i? I have access codes to that computer. Why waste the energy?"

There is no other explanation.

There is," nightwing looks to him. "Think." then nightwing grapiles two streets down

Think?" Robin joins him on the roof. "Think what? It's the only way."

No it's not, think outside the box. You can do that while you stay here.

And where do you think you are going-" nightwing puts his finger to his lips. "What now?" Robin whispers.

possible drug deal going down in that alley at three o'clock. Stay here-" but robin jumps ahead and into the alley. "Or not" nightwing says slightly annoyed.

Robin jumps in and immediately starts swinging. He takes out the guy on the left with an soled round-house kick. Then he takes his katana and easily disarms the guy on the right.

He slices the bag of drugs and puts the blade to the drug dealers neck. " ha see nightwing i'm perfectly capable- " he looks over his shoulder just in time to see a gunman draw his weapon and start shooting.

nightwing drops in front of him and dodges the bullets. Then pulls robin to the side out of harm's way. He tosses cuffs at one of the drug dealers wrist, it swings back behind the drug dealer and attaches to a pipe rung up the side of a building. he turns his attention back to the gunman, but robin can't help but notice nightwings moves began to get slightly sluggish.

You are picking the wrong fight kid. The gunman states.

Did I?" he pulls out his esmra sticks. "Good."

Gunman cycle the slide back, and starts shooting. nightwing doges again with not as much grace as he could have. But successfully knock the gunman out.

I had it covered, I didn't need you're help! Robin yells as nightwing leans against a wall sluggishly.

Yeah,... sure. So your telling me... that you saw the gunman in the first place…. Right?" nightwing says with a pained look on his face.

Positive, most certainly better than you. You look horrible.

Nightwing presses a finger to his ear. " hood, red, sniper spotted taking his leave... on the roof across from downtown grocery mart... Shots fired.

"Copy." hood says.

Nightwing are you ok?" Robin asks

call...hooded." nightwing says as he slides down the wall.

Nightwing? Nightwing!" Robin says as he ran to him. "Nightwing can you hear me?" he doesn't respond. He calls hooded on his com. "Hooded copy, nightwing is down!"

"Robin, repeat." hooded says.

Nightwing is down. Requesting assistance.

Robin, what's your location?

Back alley behind the grocery mart. Hooded what your ETA?

10 minutes

he got shot. I don't know what to do.

Apply light pressure to the wound.

Hooded, He doesn't look good

Changing ETA.

To what?

Now.

The hooded girl drops down into the alley. "What happened?"

I'm not positive.

Is you're wrist computer connected to the bat-computer?

Yes.

"Look in the files for a Dr. leslie. Call her and tell her that nightwing got shot, and to meet us at the bat-cave. Then call agent A, and inform him on the situation." hooded says as she calls for the bat-mobile.

He does. The bat-mobile got there, and they load nightwing into the back seat safely. Hooded hops into the driver's seat, robin into the passenger's seat. Hooded drives at breakneck speeds, but surprisingly smoothly. They get to the bat-cave in record time. As soon as they get there. They get nightwing on a gurney and Dr. leslie rushes him to the med-bay with alfred in tow.

Do you think he will be ok? Robin says as he takes off his mask, becoming damian.

She just stares at the direction that Dick was rushed away.
