Chapter 13

"Freeze!" yelled the first police officer as the police burst into the room, each of them had their guns pointed directly at Robin. Robin smiled to himself as he turned around, his hands held up high into the air.

"Holy shit what's that?" he said as he pointed to something behind d the officers, he couldn't help but laugh as each of them turned their heads slightly to see what he had pointed at. He used this opportunity to do what he did best and dropped out of the window, his body slammed hard into the unforgiving concrete. He didn't have any time to catch his breath as a police copter flew over head, it's spotlight shone down on him, forcing Robin to cover his eyes with his hand.

"This is the Jump City police department do not move or we will open fire!" said a voice over a loud speaker as Robin stood up, still shielding his eyes from the bright light.

"Blah blah fucking blah" smiled Robin as he pulled out one of his birdarangs and threw it at the copter, destroying the search light with a shower of sparks.

"That does it ice that fucker!" yelled one of the officers in the copter as he looked at the officer who was holding a large rifle.

"One dead freak coming up" smiled the sniper as he looked through his scope and aimed directly for Robin's heart. Before Robin could blink he was knocked onto his back by a sudden force, making him cough slightly as the air was driven from his body.

"Time to go I think" he said as he looked up and saw the crow fly past him, he quickly flipped up and ran into an alleyway, hoping that the darkness would hide him from the annoying bullets of the police.

Cyborg pulled away from the curb as Starfire entered the run down building, he didn't know why she stayed there but at least it was better than the Tower. He whistled until he felt something hit off the side of his squad car.

"Robin what the hell?" he asked as he saw Robin's white face look at him through the passenger window.

"Help me" panted Robin as he clutched several wounds in his chest, the blood trickled down his fingers. Cyborg didn't hesitate as he opened the door and pulled Robin into it, he looked up as he heard a police copter fly past.

"What have you been doing to get all the attention?" he asked as he drove the street, he occasionally glanced over at Robin and watched as he closed his eyes and concentrated on healing his wounds.

"You wouldn't want to know" replied Robin with a smile as he opened his eyes and looked at Cyborg, making his friend smile back.

"So where you want dropped off?" asked Cyborg as he stopped at a set of traffic lights, watching as the light turned to red. He looked over at Robin for a reply and saw that the passenger door was wide open, the only sign of Robin ever being there was the red stains on the white leather of his car.

"I knew you would do that" he whispered as he leant over and slammed the door closed. He smiled as the light turned green allowing him to continue to drive down the street. Robin watched his car disappear into the night.

"Goodbye Cy" he said as he waved goodbye, he waited until he could no longer see the lights of the car until he put his hands in his pocket and looked up at the sky, "I'm coming Raven" he whispered before he turned away and walked down the street.

"Look at that" growled Slade as he looked out of the window of his personal limo, "The whole fucking place should be in flames" he hissed as he looked at the lights from the buildings gleam like stars against the nights sky.

"His power was incredible" remarked Jinx as she started out at the city.

"Tell me something I don't know" sighed Slade as he relaxed in the back and watched Seraph expertly drive around the city.

"How about me telling you that you take away that power?" smiled Jinx as she looked over at Slade, making a sinister mile appear on his face.

"That would be something I would really like to know my dear" said Slade as he leaned closer to her, running his hand along her cheek.

"His power is in the bird" said Jinx as she pulled away from him, "The crow is the thing that keeps him in between the realms of the dead and the world of the living" she said as she looked at Slade, praying that he wouldn't touch her again.

"Kill the crow and you kill the Robin" smiled Seraph as he glanced into the rear view mirror and looked at Slade smile.

"The city may not be on fire but Devils Night isn't over yet" smiled Slade as he looked out of window once again, "I'm coming for you Robin" he said as he looked at the city, the smile on his face grew wider as he thought of finally getting rid of his former apprentice.

Robin took off his leather coat as he walked down the street, he contemplated throwing it in the trash until he saw a homeless person sleeping against a wall, a filthy blanket was all that was keeping his body warm.

"Here you need this more than I do" smiled Robin as he placed the coat over the person and shivered as the cold wind blew past him. He was about to continue his lone walk until he saw a group of children running towards him, each of them where dressed up for Halloween. He laughed as they ran around him, their touches flashed past his face, their laughter brought a smile to his face. He remembered a time when this sort of thing wasn't possible, he at least made it safe again for kids to have fun on Halloween again.

"Happy Halloween kids" he said as he patted one of them on the head, he looked at the child's costume and smiled as he saw it looked like one he used to wear long ago, "Nice costume".

"Thanks it's like the one Robin used to wear" smiled the child as he looked up at Robin, "He was my favourite Titan".

"I'm sure he would be very proud to know that you liked him that much" smiled Robin as he watched the child run off and catch up with his friends, their laughter echoed throughout the night. Robin smiled as he turned away from their laughter, he had somewhere he had to be.

Starfire looked all around her as she listened to the sound of her sister sleeping in the small bed next to hers. She smiled to herself as she opened her window gently, making sure she didn't make a sound.

"I shall be back soon my sister" she whispered before she floated out of the open window and drifted into the night sky, she didn't know why but she had to see Robin, she was afraid she would never get another chance.
