Artemis's P.O.V.

Something seems really off about that teen we were just fighting...I don't know how to explain it, but I think I may have seen him before. Seeing a villian that is about my age that I may recognize is not a good sign, which means I met them when my terrible father forces me to meetings with him. I hope this person is not after the team because of me. Although, the colors look just like that mans that took Robin a year ago. Also, that other young adult I wonder why they were fighting of they are both villains, you would think they would team up against us first. I hate being left in the dark about things that I feel is right in front of me. I wish I knew all the answers we want like where Robin really is, and what about that guy who took him hell, I would be glad to know who the kid is in front of us right now strapped in the bioship. We were going to reveal his face, but Aqualad said to wait for Batman's orders. Pft, we took down this kid not him, yet the mysterious attacker went easy on us. I can tell because he mainly kept dodging not fighting for real. He could have easily killed me when my bow was snapped. Even when fighting Wally he could have broke his legs, but he kept tripping him instead. Shit, the whole team could've been killed in a blink of an eye, Conner could have been hit with the kryptonite in his heart, M'gann could have just been set on fire to burn till death, and even Aqualad the fighting skills with that sword there was many chances he could have slit his throat. Yet, the kid only tried to fatally harm the guy in the red helmet. Something seems wrong, and I am going to get to the bottom of this for Robin's sake, and the teams.

"Hey, guys?" M'gann asked.

"What is it Miss M?" Kaldur questioned.

"That teen there seemed really angry when fighting, but… I can't describe it. It is almost like he wanted to kill us however, if he did why are we still here?"

"Who knows M'gann maybe he had orders not to." My boyfriend responded.

"No, it was personal yet, we never seen him before have we?"

"Not that I know of although, I did notice he has the same colors as the man who took Robin." I say.

"What! I can go through his mind, and force some memories out or knowledge!"

"No, absolutely not M'gann that may harm his mental state." The leader said.

"So what is this is about Robin I will happily obtain the knowledge with force if I must!"

"Tsk, you are all imbeciles Robin would have never wanted you to go through a mind of another with the knowledge you may cause much destruction to their mental state." RR said.

"Well, he is not here is he!" She countered.

"M'gann that is enough Batman will handle obtaining information from the kid!" Batgirl yelled.

"Why don't we take a vote then?" Miss M snarked off to the female Bat.

"FIne, if that will get you to drop it."

"Okay, all who wants to go through his mind raise your hand." Aqualad said in a formal voice.

I watched as M'gann was the only one to raise her hand. I wanted to, but the rest of them is right about harming the kid then we would be punished severely by the League. M'gann huffed in annoyance as Superboy just glared at he with a look that said just try to speak again. It is really sad how far they drifted apart Conner still cares for her as a friend, but not like before.

"So babe, can you like help me with bandaging his wound?" Wally asks me.

"Whatever Baywatch." I say while grabbing some gauze, and wrapping the kids wounds. Kid already got the bullet out along with the arrow.

"Thanks my spitfire."

"Shut up flamehead." I say while punching his arm.

"Ow." He whines being a drama Queen rubbing his arm with a pained look.

"Come on Baywatch really?"

"That hurt Arty." He whines once again trying to get attention.

"We are almost there." M'gann says.

"Good I am getting a bit bored." Batgirl huffs.

"Tsk, if I was you I would get bored all the time."

"Shut it twerp!"

After a while, we finally reach the Mountain when something catches my eyes. I realize he is waking up as his fingers start to twitch. Alarm comes to me as this kid was shot with a bullet and an arrow also, we gave him a powerful drug to keep him for at least another couple hours.

"Guys!" I shout to warn my teammates.

"What is it Artemis?" Aqualad asks.

"He is waking up!"

"What? How is that even possible we gave him a strong drug!" Kid said now also alarmed.

"What should we do?" M'gann asks.

"We can not risk harming him by giving him another drug, our best plan is to get Canary." Aqualad responded being stoic.

"No you idiots! Get Batman he is more knowledgeable about this stuff than Canary." Red Robin intervened.

"Shut up, and get both of them!" Batgirl ordered the speedster.

"Why, we can handle this." Conner glared.

"We do not want to take any chances, my friend."

"Be back in a flash!" Wally said

The unknown kid awoke with a glare to rival Batman's.

I should not of hesitated to kill you all!" He screams at us.

"Wait, so you were going easy on us?" I ask.

"Be quiet all of you, I would have thought you would know not to talk to the enemy." Red Robin said.

"We can still get answers without talking!" Supey threatened.

"Stop it all of you. We have already decided it is not for us to decide. The leader said wanting to keep everyone calm.

Soon enough Wally, Bats, Canary, and some other leaguers came back such as Superman, Martian Manhunter, Flash, Green Arrow, and Aquaman.

"Why are they here!" Superboy yells with a lot of anger glaring mainly at Superman.

"Precaution." Batman said monotone.

"Oh my! I feel so honored I am seen as a threat!" The kid said excitedly.

"Be silent you are coming in for interrogation." Batman sneared.

I watch as Superman and Batman take the kid in the direction to the interrogation room.

"Can we watch or something?" I ask.

"I don't know if Bats will approve." Flash said edgy.

"Come on uncle B, we brought him in." Wally complained.

'Robin would have hacked his way in.' I think saddened.

I watch as the leaguers look conflicted at what to do until Aquaman broke the silence.

"Who gave us orders that we could not enter?"

None of the league had an answer to that question.

"Okay, I guess we can." Flash said reluctant.

We all went to the office to observe from the two way window only to see Superman standing there watching with a bit of worry.

"Did Batman say you can be in here?" Supes asks.

"He did not say we couldn't be in here." The older martian said.

All of a sudden we here Batman screaming at the kid asking who he is.


Robin/Renegade

"Who are you, and why did you try to kill the other person there!" Bruce yells.

"Geeze, at least say please Broody." I do what I am best at, smarting off.

"Who gave you the orders!"

"Someone."

"How old are you?"

"Old enough to know you need a chill pill." I watch as he glares with annoyance and anger. I smirk as I realize I can make his anger grow, Master always said people do not think right when they are mad.

"So Bats, It has been a year has it not?" I ask. My plan is working as I can see him clenching his fists and growls.

"I noticed you have the colors as the man who took Robin, you better start talking before I put you in Belle Reve!"

"But, I am talking." I say cocking my head.

"You know what I mean!"
"Do I?"

"Who do you work for!"
"We been through is someone although, I will say he does have better skills than you."

"What does the S stand for?"
"None of your business."

"Where is he!" Bats yells slamming the table.

"BTW, I know what you are trying to do." I watch as his eyes widen, and id I wasn't around him for so long I would not have noticed. Most people would not have caught it but, I knew he would.

"How!"

"You could say a little birdy told me." I say giggling.

"Where is he!"

"Geeze, B you sound like a broken record."

"I need to know where he is, at least if he is fine."

"Why do you even care, I thought he was a replaceable sidekick!" I yell.

"He has never been replaced!"

"Perhaps you don't want to lose someone again." I start smirking again.

" You know B so far all because of you Talia, your parents, and now poor Richard."

"You don't know me kid stop acting like it!" He snapped.

"Maybe I do, perhaps boy wonder told me himself."
"Robin would never."

"Are you so sure, it has been a year after all."

"You,Don' . .Us!"

""I know his family was murdered in front of him like you. I also know his parents were in on giving him to become an assassin. What else?"

I snap my fingers as I say, "Oh right, his name is Richard John Grayson Wayne however, I still have no clue why Wayne is at the end if he was adopted."

"Enough!" Bruce looks pissed.

"Why B, I know much more, I thought you wanted me to tell you what I know."

"I do not care about you, I care about Robin!"

Ha, the irony how I love it so.

"Where he is, is right in front of you BW. You just need to figure it out I did give you all the clues."

"What clues the only thing you told me that I did not know is the assassins." He looks in thought for a second before anger comes to him.

"Did the assassins take him?"

"Hmmm Nope, Guess again Bats!"

"Maybe I should just see who you are."

Even if he does lift my mask I highly doubt he will know who I am since, Master gave me contacts and I look different after a year, I also sound different.

"Whatever makes the wind beneath your wings Bats." I say shrugging.

The only way they will find me out is if the martians attack my mind together. I can not withstand that much mental attacks even if Master trained me. I watch as his glare increases, I love the irony how he is going to all lengths to speak to Robin, and he is, a giggle escapes my throat.

"What is do amusing to you?" He asks staring intently at me.

"The situation is so obvious I would have thought the supposably world's greatest detective would have figured it out by now."

Now I just have to get the Bat to leave, I have a plan to escape.

"Hey Batsy, how do you kill two birds with one stone?" He does not answer me so I continue.

"Make one disappear then strike the other."

"Shut up, Brat!"

"Ooo that anger B, your calm meter is falling faster than the Grayson's take your child to work day."

He finally has enough of my pestering, and leaves without a word.

He leaves so his anger doesn't get ahead of him, so quickly I get rid of my restraints before another underwhelmed person comes. I see the grate ahead of me so I dive in, when I exit I see the living room. I look around being it looks the same complete with even the static on the T.V. Oh shit, I just realized if I leave through the zeta's my name would be called, but if I hack it I won't have time till the Flash comes. Speak of the Devil, I see the moron come speeding through. He comes running after me so, me being asterous I step aside and trip him. I thought that would only work on KF, but I guess it works. All of a sudden I see the remaining members come after me cornering me. I may just have to run for it although, they block the zeta's. I quickly try to take them all, going after the kryptonians are useless so, I decide to attack the arrow team. I dodge all the arrows and punches being thrown my way. I jump over the couch and flip behind Ollie only to break his arms, and knock him out. Canary starts raging now blocking her punches are much harder than her boyfriends. She gets a couple punches in till I use my enhanced speed to take her down. I barely escape a punch from Babs as the replacement comes fighting me. He is all lot better then what I remember, and also not as violent more well planned.I use my enhanced speed and strength once again to steal his utility belt. I would have thought Bats would teach him to guard it by now. I take what I need out of it, and throw some foam explosives at Flash and Kid to keep them in place. I flip over some of my opponents to get closer to the hard hitters, and take out some kryptonite to throw at Supes and Supey which works of course. I hit them in a non-lethal place to have them observe my asterous skills and looks. Oh shit, I forgot about Arty as another arrow comes hurling my way only to hit my thigh, but I pull it out and throw it to the ground as the Bat team comes from the shadows as I dodge them all with my skills. I take the explosive batarangs out and throw them at Arty, M'gann, replacement, Babs, and Aqualad. Ha, I am too good I think before once again the Batman comes to me with a punch I just dodge in time. I don't really worry about Aquaman being there is no water around here he is not the greatest at punching. The stupid martians team up to invade my mind which I try to block but fail, Master would kill me for this.

My vision goes to a memory of Master punishing me for not killing someone.

"You useless boy all you had to do was kill him!" Punches to the ribs results in them breaking as I fall over.

"You can not even take the pain boy, I guess we need more practise at that!" More punches as I try not to scream. His stupid favorite sword is unsheathed as he stabs me in non-lethal places. I finally can't deal with it as I black out.

My vision comes back to me as I see the team and leaguers look pale as I realize they all seen it some angry and others saddened or shocked. Stupid martians I hate them so much sometimes. I must leave before Master comes to kill them all including Babs, Wally, and Arty. My stomach starts to feel sick. I watch as Dinah and Ollie start to wake so seeing them all distracted I run to the Zeta's to see the light ingulf me with the classic voice,

"Recognized Robin B01."

'What have I done?'


Batman's P.O.V.

I notice the kid has escaped as Flash speeds to the living room. We entered to see the kid look conflicted about something. We corner the kid as I see Barbara try to punch him. This kid is really good if he can take out some league members that fast as I see him take down Green Arrow and Canary. Smart he did not want to dodge as many arrows and punches. The way he flips is so graceful it looks familiar. After the kid kept dodging for around 5 minutes he goes after Damian and takes his utility belt. I must train him more to protect it. I watch as he takes out some batarings and kryptonite which alarms me being I had a lock on it only certain people know. He throws it at Clark and Conner for it to meet their shoulders and paralyze them for the time being. Artemis's arrow hits his shoulder as he looks surprised and takes it out.I try to sneak up on him with Batgirl and Red Robin but it fails. All of a sudden I see a vision of the kid being attacked and yelled at by the man who took Robin. My vision clears as I am very angry right now. Everyone looks shocked and the boy looks paler than anyone here. I am sure the man did much more harmful things to him.I watch as he runs to the Zeta tubes, but I am not to worried being the only way to get out is either him being in the system, or him hacking it however, we would reach him before that. I watch in shock as the zeta beam starts to glow, but that means-

"Recognized Robin B01."

"No!" I yell in anger. He was right here my son was in front of me and I did not know it. The clues he gave to me makes sense now being everything was in front of me he was being literal. Everyone looks shocked, about to cry, or just hurt in general. Whatever that man did to my son I will make him pay by locking him in the deepest part of Arkham, and breaking every bone in his body. One thing made me freeze though, he tried to kill that man in the red helmet does that mean he has killed? Will I be locking up my son along with the man. No matter, I will try to help him get on the right path again. I know he would never harm anyone on purpose to the point of death. He was reluctant to in the vision I just seen so, maybe it is not too late. I feel really guilty about the fact he feels replaced. I guess I did fail someone I love again in life. This is all my fault I am so sorry Dick. I should have adopted him I was just scared he would get hurt because of me. I thought he knew the reason but, no matter I will make him see how much I care about him. When Gordon found out Babara was kidnapped he was so furious and never stopped looking, I guess Richard looked back at the moment and thought I just gave up. Agony comes to me with the fear of locking him up for my mistakes.

I am so sorry Richard.
