"Are you sure this is the place?" Wally asked, as the seven of them walked down the rocky path in the middle of nowhere. M'gann nodded and gestured to the small screen. "There's two hest signatures over there."
She pointed to the hill in front of them. "The faster we find them the faster we can fix this." Artemis said, as they climbed up the hill.
"Oh god." Robin groaned as they went to the building at the bottom of the hill. "Cadmus." Conner growled out, and tightened his fists. "What are they up to this time?" Kaldur questioned to no one in particular.
"Only one way to find out!" Wally said and swung the doors open, confidently walking in. His shoulders slumped as he walked in. The team hesitantly followed him in.
The room was covered in blood, but there were no bodies. "What the..." Artemis muttered, as she looked around the room. There were two hallways, one on the right side of the room, and one of the left.
Robin pointed down the right one "Look!" there was an elevator at the end of it, and a scientist smirked at them. "Going down." he said and the doors of it closed before Wally could get in there.
His fists pounded against the doors in anger. Once the rest of the team got there, Conner pried the doors opened. "Etativel!" Zatanna cried out and she began to float down with M'gann. Conner jumped down, Kaldur, Wally, Artemis, and Robin grabbed onto the cables and slid downward.
"Shit!" Conner yelled out, and a loud bang echoed. The elevator was quickly going up. Artemis' breath hitched and she, along with the rest of the team swung into the nearest floor.
She rolled on the floor before coming to a stop, and laying on her back. The blonde quickly got up, as did the rest of them. "Guess were stuck with the stairs." Robin stated, gesturing to the broken cable lines.
Groans went around the room. Zatanna went toward a large steel door. There were two bloody spots next to it. "Hey, look at this!" she called out, and they all walked toward it.
With ease, Conner ripped it off the hinges. He was the first to enter, followed by the rest of the team. The place made Robin cringed, it reminded him of Arkham Asylum.
There were prison cells, the bars were rusty and there was dried blood everywhere. The cleanest thing in the place was the control panel. In the middle of it was a stairwell, leading to the second part of the prison.
They all split up, looking around in the cells on the bottom floor. Once they concluded that there was nothing they went to the top floor. Which was much more creepy. There was a wheelchair, bloodied and broken in the middle of it and a flickering light.
"Looks like a horror movie." Wally announced. Instead of splitting up this time, they stuck together, for the top floor was much smaller.
"RUNNN" a large clang came as they heard someone say that. In one of the cells someone had been shaking the bars violently, screaming at them to run.
"BEFORE THEY GET YOU RUNNNN." he laughed hysterically, his body was all torn up and bloody. It was impossible that he was still alive. You could see his skull. Robin raised an eyebrow, hes experienced worse visiting Arkham.
Loud clanging sounds came from the bottom of the prison. They all leaned over the rails and saw a large man, he looked like the man in the prison, but bulkier, the large thing pulled out a huge hammer.
"Fun." Artemis sarcastically muttered and pulled her bow out. The man in the cell started laughing again. "Y-You cant destroy them!" Conner jumped over the rails and before he could land he grabbed the things neck, but the large monster grabbed the half-kryptonians forearms and swung him to the wall.
Artemis leaped off the railing, firing explosive arrows, followed by Robin who was throwing explosive batarangs.
Wally sped down the stairs and circled the thing, confusing it. M'gann telepathically tried to calm it. "Its no use! It's mind is a m-" like it did with Conner, M'gann was flung to the wall.
Kaldur had been practically covering it with water, Zatanna casting spells left and right, but she was tiring from all the energy being used.
The monster pulled his hammer out and stomped toward Conner and M'gann, even though the rest of the team members were trying their best to hold him off.
The half-kryptonian and martian were beginning to gain conciousness, but once they opened their eyes the monster was swinging a hammer at them.
"Dleihs!" Zatanna screamed out before either could react. A shield covered the two of them, so when it hit the hammer against the shield the hammer flumg back at it and hit it on the head. The thing backed up, holding his head and yelled out in anger.
"Zatanna!" Artemis yelled out after noticing the unconscious magician. The archer slid to her, and wrapped an arm around the teen. Upon seeing the monster approach them, Artemis carried Zatanna out of the prison and into the room they had been in previously.
Wally sped to the two of them. "We need to get her somewhere safe!" Artemis exclaimed, gesturing to the monster who made it through the large doorway.
Wally nodded before running back to the monster, hitting it everywhere he could in miliseconds. The thing yelled out and freaked, running toward the first thing it saw. Artemis and Zatanna.
Sprinting head first toward them, Artemis didn't have time to react, and before she knew it she had been forcefully pushed by the monster and falling down the elevator shaft.
Her grip on Zatanna tightened, and she felt something grab her hand, Wally. Robin was holding onto Wallys foot. Robins feet were on both sides of the door frame, as he struggled with the weight.
Suddenly, Artemis gasped and looked down. Something was grabbing her foot! A torn up, bloody hand. She looked back up, Robins face was scrunched up, and he looked like he was about to let go of them all.
"Let go!" Artemis yelled at the redhead. Wally looked at her like she was insane. "Let go?! Why the hell would I do that!" Robin groaned out, he was struggling.
Artemis gave Wally a kiss on his hand, and a weak smile. "ARTEMIS! ZATANNA!" the speedster cried out as he watched them fall down the dark abyss.
