Riddle came running in, "Joker, Batman's gone. So is Robin!"

Joker threw down his hand of cards. "She lied." He turned towards his two henchmen. "We have three mice to catch."

"Wow, this is the Bat Cave?" Cat Woman's eyes widened. "I'd go straight to live here with Batman."

"You tell anyone and I'll kill you personally. Move Robin over to the bed over there."

As she laid Robin down on the bed the black phone rang, "Wayne Residence…"

"Dick?"

It was Harriet Cooper.

"Mrs. Cooper, it's Selina Kyle. What's wrong?" Cat Woman tried to sound calm. She knew why the old kind woman was calling.

"It's Dick. He's not at school. Do you know if he is there with Bruce?"

Cat Woman was silent she didn't know what to say. "I'm sure he's fine." Then she hung up. A tear slipped down her cheek followed by several others. "I lied. He's not fine. He's dying." She turned around to see Batman standing there. She took a deep breath, "That was Dick's Aunt."

"You're crying. What's wrong?" Batman had never seen Cat Woman actually cry. It scared him to a certain degree. "Selina what's wrong?"

Cat Woman took her mask off becoming Selina Kyle. "Bruce I don't think Dick is going to make it."

Batman took his cowl off and pulled his girl friend into his arms rocking her gently, "It's ok. I'm sure Dick is going to make it. He's strong Selina."

"But he's not Superman. Bruce his fever is too high to be normal. Call some of your other "Justice" Friends. Maybe they can figure out what's wrong." Selina pleaded burying her face into Bruce's chest.

"If it will make you feel better. I'll call Superman." Bruce let go of Selina pulling his cape off and laying it on the table. He picked up the phone and dialed Clark Kent's office number.

//Clark Kent.//

"Clark it's Bruce. I need your help RSVP."

//Bruce what's wrong?//

"It's Robin."

//I'll come right over.//

Clark put down the phone and turned to Lois, "Bruce needs me."

Lois bent down to his ear, "As Clark or Superman?"

"Superman." He replied quietly.

"Go!" She handed him his hat, "Be careful."

Clark kissed his wife on the lips and gave a sly gin, "Aren't I always?" Then he ran into the storage room and changed into Superman, "Up, Up, And Away!"

Back at the Batcave Cat Woman took the thermometer out of Robin's mouth, "Bruce his fever has gone up three degrees."

Bruce walked over to the wall and punched it hard, "Why is this happening? WHY?!?"

Cat Woman covered Robin up kissing him on the cheek then walked over to her boy friend, "Bruce?"

Bruce didn't answer and continued to face the all, "Robin doesn't deserve any of this."

"No one doe Bruce."

Bruce leaned his head on the wall finally defeated, "I promised myself that I'd watch over him. Then this happens. Some watching I did."

"Batman"

Catwoman turned around and saw the Man of Steel standing in the entrance to the Batcave.

"Batman are you ok?" Superman started towards Batman when Robin groaned.

Batman was over at Robin's side in a flash. He knelt down beside the Boy Wonder's bed, taking Robin's small hand into his, "Robin?"

Superman moved cautiously over to Catwoman. "What are you doing here?"

She shrugged, "What does it look like Kryptonite Brains?"

A small voice interrupted the quarrel, "Batman…what's wrong with me?"

"I don't know Robin." Batman replied, he ruffled Robin's hair, "Don't worry. Superman is here. He's going to figure out what's wrong with you."

Robin gave a tired grin burying him-self deeper into the mound of pillows and blankets. "That's cool.."

Batman gave a tiny smile trying to stay positive about the situation. One hour later Superman had finally finished looking Robin over. He covered the young crime fighter back up and walked back over to Batman and Cat Woman.

"Well?"

Superman gave a confused but worried look, "I didn't think it was possible for a human to have this and I don't know how he got it."

"WHAT?!?!" Batman almost jumped on top of Superman but Catwoman laid a hand on his arm.

"Batman calm down." Then she turned her attention back to the Man of Steel, "What is wrong with Robin?"

Superman knew he couldn't hide it for ever, "He has Kryptonite poison."
