Robin's a tricky one isn't he? Ha! Teaches that little so-and-so to mess with him...So where are we now...Umm...Oh yeah! Robin's threatening to kill Heidi if anything happened to Ebony...What will Slade do!?!?

STORY:

"So what is it Slade? You kill Ebony and loose your daughter, or you give me Ebony and she lives."

"Robin, don't do this to me. Please?" Heidi begged.

"Shut up." Robin snarled.

"Fine Robin you get your way. Ebony goes free, but there's a new twist, you become my apprentice."

Robin thought for a minute before retracting his BO staff and dropping Heidi.

"Fine. Now give me Ebony."

"All in good time Robin."

"You promised!" Robin shouted.

"Since when have you trusted me?"

"Then the deals off."

Robin looked at the girl on the floor and drew his foot back.

"Robin?" Heidi whispered.

"No good Heidi, tell your father to give me the baby or you will suffer."

"Daddy?"

"Tell him."

Robin picked Heidi up and pulled out a freeze disk and holding it close to Heidi's face. The fear in Heidi's eyes was almost unbearable for him, almost.

"Fine, you get the brat." Slade said, defeated.

A hole opened in the ceiling and a sudden cry told Robin Ebony had been dropped from it. He ran underneath it and caught the falling baby. She whimpered in his arms and snuggled into his chest.

"Robin?"

"You stay away."

Robin pulled out his BO staff again and pointed it at Heidi. She backed off and cried in a corner. Robin walked back into the room full of old furniture and opened a door to his right.

"Raven!" He gasped in shock.

"Robin? Ebony!"

"She's okay, Slade had her."

Robin passed the crying baby to her mum and smiled.
