-Chapter 4-
The thing that scared the bat the most was, The scream, Was Robin's.
Bats was already running towards the hospital wing as the screamed echoed in the mountain. This caught everyone's attention. M'gann set up the link 'What's happening, You guys heard that too, right?' She asked scared what horrible things could be happening to their little bird.
'Yeah, I heard it i'm about a milisecond, i'm here. Robin's.. He's screaming for.. F-for his mother.' Wally stated frozen in his spot next to the bed his best friend lay in.
'His mother? Why, is she dead?' Supey asked feeling no sadness in the statement. Wally nodded forgetting they can't see him before realizing this he stuttered back into the mind link 'Yeah, S-she's been dead a long time.'
"Wally what's going on?" Batman demanded as he turned a corner into the infirmary. "It's a nightmare. Like the one's he has on, well, the day." Wally replied as he buddy twisted in the thin sheets of the hospital bed he was currently stationed on.
Wally sat on the bed near Robin's head stroking the bird's raven locks. "It's ok little bird. We'll never leave you. Never." He whispered as the boy slowly stopped tossing and turning while Bats and the speedster comforted the injured bird.
'Wally, Wally!? What's going on we've been calling for you for about 5 minutes!' Artemis snapped into the mind linking making Wally groan at the now forming headache. 'Sorry Arty I'm busy conforting a bird having horrible nightmares about his past! Now eitheer come in here and help or stop yelling at me!' Wally replied his voice (or erm... thoughts?) were dripping with anger.
Moments later the rest of the team came in and saw their little bird lying on the bed whimpering leaning into the embrace that was Wally as tears silently rolled down his face.
"Oh my..!" M'gann exclaimed her hand flying over her mouth. Tears sprung to her eyes as they all watched the young hero whimper and cry silently while his head rest in Wally's lap.
The team slowly walked over to the bed and began comforting the poor hero. M'gann had one of Robin's hands in her own shaking ones while Artemis did the same with his other hand. Kaulder sat on the other side of the bed near Robin's head like Wally had minutes before. He gently shroked the bird's hair as he whispered comforting words in Atlantian. Connor not knowing what to do just sat at the foot of the bed which surprisingly Robin found comforting. Supey knew because he heard Robin's rapid heartbeat slow a little.
Bats walked back into the room, What he saw brought a small smirk to his maksed face. "Team, We need to wake him up. He's intoxicated with scarecrow's fear gass." he stated plainly a vile of what the team asumed was an andidote. Wally shook the little bird and the others also slightly shook their young teammate.
Batman looked down upon his bird "Robin, You need to wake up." He ordered his voice stern and kinda terrifying. The shaking of the boy wonder stopped when Robin responded, slowly sitting up tears still flowing from his eyes. He held out his shaking hand and Batman placed the vile in his hands. Robin downed the liquid and sat there on the bed shaking. Wally put a comforting hand on his brother's shoulder but quickly pulled away.
"Robin are you ok, Your burning up. You feel like your on fire." Wally looked to the little bird concern etched into his features.
"Batman, I know this one. It's the after effect of the Joker's newest v-venom. It's gonna get worse until it gets b-better." Robin explained more tears flowing down his face but this time from pain and sadness.
Batman gave a slight stern nod and hugged his protege. The team froze.
'Did he just...' Artemis started
'I think he did...' M'gann
'Can he even do this...' Wally
'I believe he is.' Kaulder
'He is.'
'Daddybats lives on! He stopped doing stuff like this in public years ago! Yes, If Rob wasn't in so much pain right now he'd be over joyed! Batman cares enough to show affection!'
