(BATGIRLS P.O.V.)
After we had agreed to help the Titans rescue Nightwing, we were all hit with a terrible realization.
We had no idea where to start looking.
Honestly, well Batman might have had a hunch to start in warehouses but when I asked him why he didn't take the lead on this investigation he simply replied that he was respecting the fact that this was the Titans leader they were looking for and their city. Said something about people not invading on his turf so he wouldn't invade theirs.
I recognized this as the poor excuse it was, what he really was doing was testing them, seeing how good these teen were without their leader because we all knew by now how powerful they were with their him.
That's when I realized that was why he had been restraining himself, not helping them too much just where he was really needed.
Maybe he told the whole league to do that.
Paranoid prick.
For once I want him to meet someone without analyzing them, without trying to find their weaknesses. I guess that's just what you do when you're Batman.
By the time I snapped out of my thoughts I had finished traveling up to the roof of Titans Tower for some privacy.
That's when I heard a muted thunk and telltale sounds of soft footsteps approaching.
I guess privacy is overrated.
When I turned around I was met by what looked like a teenager in a skull mask and a shredded cape dawning red X's.
Huh, this must be red X.
He started at me apprehensively and I returned the favor.
"Red X I presume?"
He seemed almost disappointed that I knew who he was, with his response being a drop of the shoulders and I could almost see the frown under the mask.
"So Nightwing did tell you about me, shame I was looking forward to toying with you for a bit, you must be Batgirl."
Wow he was annoying.
"He told me I could trust you, your actions are gonna determine how far that trust goes."
At this he started laughing, almost as if at an inside joke that I didn't have the pleasure of being part of.
"Hey, I'm just here to repay a little debt I have to Wingnut."
"Oh, and why would you owe him a debt?"
"That's classified, Bratgirl, he just told me that if Slade ever got him again, to give whoever I trusted would take the information to heart a list of Slade's recent hideouts."
At this he threw a thick wad of paper on the ground right at my feet.
"Each page is a different hideout, those are the last five he was seen at. The addresses and recordable security are there. It's all I got. Try and bring the idiot home though, it's so much easier to be a criminal when there is a hero who trusts you."
When he was done with his speech he went to jump off the roof, but not before throwing in one last comment.
"Oh, and when you see Goldie next, tell him Jay says hi."
Then he jump off the roof, leaving me alone with shocked thoughts.
Goldie? Jay?
Those two names alone led to an impossible conclusion.
"Jason?"
-linelinelinelinelineline-
When I finally chose to drag my shocked self off the roof I decided to keep my thoughts on Red X to myself, at least until I talked to Dick about it.
The team, titans and leaguers hardly even moved from their respective stations at computers when I reentered the room, but when I went over to Batman and handed him the list, everyone's eyes were on us.
"This is a list of Slade's most recent hideouts including all the information I could get on the locations and their security."
"Where did this come from?"
"One of Nightwing's associates gave it to me."
Bats clearly wanted to ask who but wisely decided to save his questions for later once he saw realization dawn on the Titans faces.
Once we had a list of places to look it wasn't really hard for the world's greatest detective to figure out where Slade was currently.
And once we found him, well, we were on the planes faster than you could say Nightwing.
-linelinelinelinelineline-
We were all creeping along the perimeter of the warehouse when we heard the shouting coming from inside the building.
Now we didn't really have a plan to begin with,but when the sounds of conflict reached our ears any plan we had flew out the window and got traded in for just flat out charging in.
And charge in we did.
And then we saw all the Sladebots and realized it wasn't that good of an idea. But hey, we couldn't really change that now.
It didn't take us long to figure out how to take them out, mostly because the Titans knew all their weak spots and were yelling them to us as we fought.
After a couple roundhouse kicks to their necks and a few punches to their eyes all the bots were on the ground disassembled and none of us were sporting that bad of injuries. It became apparent to me that the Titans were seething with anger and it seemed almost nothing could get in the way of them and their leader.
But practically the same thing could be said about the team and me.
We decided to split up and look through each room until we found Nightwing, telling the others about finding him through com links.
I got paired up with Robin and Batman and when we got word that the Titans had found Slade and Beast Boy had sat on him as an elephant while Starfire held him down and the rest tied him up, me and Robin almost laughed.
And then Flash, Green Arrow, Kid Flash and Artemis had contacted us saying that they had found Nightwing, the seriousness in their voices shut us up.
We ran into the room to see many of the other teams just getting there as well and were met with the sight of an elderly man being tied up by two very angry archers and two speedsters standing over Nightwing.
A very, very hurt Nightwing.
Just from a quick glance I could tell that he had multiple broken bones and was losing way too much blood to be safe.
I vaguely heard Batman call Martian Manhunter, telling him to prepare for wounded at the watchtower, and swiftly followed him as Starfire picked up Nightwing and we ran to the portable Zeta tube on the justice league jet.
In a flash of bright light we were teleported into space and our names were listed including multiple listings of guest for the titans.
And when we expected one last guest to be listed for the injured teen in our arms, a name was called out that made everyone stop short and almost made me curse myself for not realizing my mistake earlier.
"ROBIN B01"
