The Allies

"…Raven, please help me find him!"

The alarm started before Raven could answer her, and Cyborg and Beast Boy came running into the room. They stopped in the movement as they saw the two girls faces.

"Yo, what is wrong?"

Starfire was just about to say something, when Raven took the word.

"It's Robin. He hasn't come home yet."

Cyborg and Beast Boy relaxed.

"Well, he said, that he wouldn't come before very late in the evening, so I can't see what the problem is."

Raven was just about to explain it, when Starfire cut in.

"He didn't leave for Gotham… we had a argument… he left on the R-Cycle and hasn't come back yet!"

She burst into tears and Cyborg laid an arm around her shoulders to comfort her.

"He is coming back."

She wiped her eyes and looked over on the computer screen, which showed Cinderblock, who was destroying buildings in the downtown of the city.

"You have right. We should concentrate on saving the city right now."

Even though she said it they didn't believed her. For a moment they just stood there, but then Cyborg took the leadership.

"Raven, you and BB go after Cinderblock, while Starfire and I find Robin."

The two titans nodded and leaved the tower to go after Cinderblock. Cyborg walked over to the computer and tried to locate Robin by using Robin's locator, but there was no luck.

"That is strange. His locator is offline."

As he saw the reaction on Starfire's face he regretted his words.

"Maybe it is nothing."

"No, I have a feeling, that something terrible has happen."

"Starfire, he knows how to take care of himself, beside we still have one thing left, that we can try. You said he left on the R-Cycle?"

She nodded.

Cyborg typed something on the keyboard and the computer began searching for the R-Cycle's signal. Soon after a spot was flashing on the map.

"We have found him!"

-

He opened his eyes. First it was very dark, so he couldn't see anything, but as his eyes got used to it he recognized Airmid, who was sitting next to him. She smiled as she saw he was awake.

"It was about time. I was getting worried about you."

He tried to stand out of the bed, but was stopped by the pain in his shoulders.

"The bird… it…"

She silenced him by putting a finger over her mouth.

"Not now. You are still weak. Soon you will get answers to all your question, but now you need to rest."

She gentle pushed him back in the bed and tucked him in. He felt so weak, that he just allowed her to do it. Soon after he felt the fatigue rush in over him and he felt asleep again.

-

He walked over to the keyboard and typed the coordinates in. The machine began to work and soon it created a little black hole in the air, which grew larger and larger. In the end it was around two meter wide. He smiled and stepped into the portal.

-

Cyborg checked the coordinates on the T-car's screen one more time and cast a glance over at Starfire, who was sitting next to him.

"We should be able to see the R-Cycle in a couple of minutes."

He turned on the communicator on.

"Raven, how are you doing?"

The communicator crackled for a second, but then they could hear Raven's voice loud and clearly.

"Okay, but we still don't know what Cinderblock wants. He is just smashing buildings. Have you found Robin?"

"We are almost at the R-Cycle…"

The T-car turned at a corner and the R-Cycle was revealed.

"… Oh, we have found it."

He ended the transmission and stopped the T-car. Starfire opened the car door and jumped out of the car as she was calling after Robin. Cyborg stepped out of the car and walked over to the R-Cycle. He laid a hand on the engine. It was cold as ice.

Starfire's search brought her down to the cliffs next to the ocean. She called and called, but no one answered her. She felt the hope drop and was just about to go back to Cyborg, when she saw him. Even though he was standing far away from her she recognized him at once. Her heart jumped up in her throat as she flew over to him.

-

"Robin?"

He opened his eyes and saw Airmid, who was standing next to the bed. Her eyes were full of worries.

"How do you feel? Do you think you are strong enough to stand up?"

He nodded and stood out of the bed as he grit his teeth because of the pain in his shoulders. He was thankful that Airmid didn't try to help him, but just left the room. He followed her into the other room, which were a kitchen. Airmid was standing by the stove and was stirring in a casserole, when she heard Robin coming. She dropped the ladle and walked over to him.

"There is someone you need to meet."

First then Robin saw the person, who was sitting at the kitchen table. He was sitting with the back to them, but Robin could clearly see the wheelchair.

"Robin, I would like you to meet…"

The boy turned the wheelchair around and Robin recognized him.

"But you are sitting in a wheelchair! Last time you threw a Batarang at me!"

Airmid was just about to say something, but the boy stopped her with a simple gesture.

"It was my brother. My twin brother."

As he saw Robin's doubtful face he continued.

"Airmid has told me, that in your world you are Richard John Grayson. Son of John Frederick Grayson and Mary Elizabeth Grayson."

He held a rhetorical pause and Robin nodded reluctantly.

"Here in this world John and Mary didn't just get one son. They got a pair of twins - identical twins, which they named Richard Grayson and John Grayson Jr."

"So, who are you? And what has that to do with me?"

Airmid stepped in.

"He is John Grayson Jr. and is the one, who need your help to train him."

John Grayson Jr. offered Robin his hand.

"Call me Jake. That's what everyone calls me."
