ChapterTwo: You Owe Me
Delivering a sidekick to the face of the first drone to step towards him, Robin then pulled out his extended pole and waited for the next one to step forward. Hearing footsteps behind him Robin turned around only to see no one, turning back around, Robin stood face to face with Slade's mystery helper Ken Chrono. "It's you again!" Robin said in shock. Trying to prepare himself for a much bigger fight than the drones, Robin had no time as Ken delivered a uppercut to Robin's abdomen, causing all the air in Robin's body to escape.
Having no choice but to kneel down from the pain in his stomach, Robin looked up only to see Ken's foot coming down. Rolling out of the way, Robin stood up and placed his back to the nearest wall to get his balance. "Huh?" Turning his head and ducking in time to dodge one of the drone's punches, Robin looked up to see that the stone wall crack. Kicking the drone away and grabbing his pole, Robin got into his defense stance as more drones dropped from the ceiling and landed behind Ken.
"Can't fight me one on one huh!?" Forgetting about the drones behind him, one of them creped up behind Robin and wrapped their cold metal arms around Robin and jumped into the air. Crushing through the ceiling, the drone tossed Robin outside, onto the top of the ceiling. Landing on his back and quickly getting to one knee, Robin held his side as to him, it felt as if the drone crushed his ribs from the gripped tight hold. "AHH!!" Placing his attention to the hole he came through, Ken jump out with his sword in one hand and his cards in another.
Tossing his cards down surrounding Robin, Ken landed and stood still as he watched Robin. "What's wrong Ken? Not going to attack me?" "I don't need to... yet." "Huh!?" Feeling a drop of water fall from the sky, Robin looked up only to see millions of rain drops falling from the sky. Looking back at Ken and not blinking, the rest of the drones came from out of the hole in the ceiling and once again stood behind him. Not knowing what was going on and continued watching Ken, Robin then felt a tingly felling in his body that stood up his arm hairs. Looking down at the cards Ken threw down around him, Robin stay that they where blinking. Standing up and trying to get away, it was to late for Robin as electricity came from out of the cards and electrocuted him as he screamed out in pain, causing him to fall flat on his stomach and twitch from the shock of Ken's cards.
Slowly raising his head and watched at four drones began walking towards him, Red X appeared from out of no where and quickly destroyed three of the drones. The the last drone threw a punch towards X, X moved his body to the side then grabbed the arm of the drone. Gripping the arm tightly, X then tossed the drone over his shoulders towards Ken and made it land in front of Ken. Turning around and looking at Robin look at him with pain and disbelieve, Red X slowly shook his head as he bent down and pick Robin up. "You owe me one half pint." Placing Robin on his right shoulder and turned around, X watched as Ken charged on his position. "Not today." X said as he gave a salute to Ken and disappeared, using his cloak button.
Looking around for a moment and seeing that they escaped, Ken placed his left index finger on his ear and spoke into a implant speaker. "They escaped." "Don't worry Ken, it's okay." "..." "But next time, don't go into attack mode on Red X. I need him with us." "Got it. But now what do you want me to do?" "Get back here, I need you to do me another favor." "Right." Taking his finger off his implant with discontinuing the conversation with Slade, Ken gave the nod to the drones and they all disappeared into thin air, heading back to Slade.
-By helping Robin, did Red X choose the side that he's on? Will Robin
thank Red X for saving his life? Will Slade do something more devious now?
Only one way to find out and that to stay tuned. Until then...
Have fun and stay safe.
