Chapter 2: Regain

Robin stood his ground. " I hear you must be rusty, Bane. I mean, not fighting any heroes or anything in a year or so," Robin drew his bow-staff once more and extended it. " Come on Bane, show me what you got,"

Bane merely laughed once more, but then realized that Robin was not kidding. He let out somewhat of a sadistic smile, and then cracked his knuckles. "You asked for it, punk."

TTTTTTTTTT

It had been a long day for Victor Stone. He had been in Metropolis for over eight months now, working as a computer technician for some electronics store. He received not a lot of money to boot, and it drained his system everyday. One; having to run a cloak so he looked normal burned up most of his energy, and two; repairing computers; especially sometimes high tech government computers, was not easy on his battery.

He unlocked the door to his small apartment, and stepped inside. It wasn't exactly luxurious; though most of it was high-tech. His computer was state of the art; with eight gigabytes of RAM and the newest graphics card, as well as a T1 Internet connection and many other luxuries. However, he had had no friends ever since he had left the Titans, and it was starting to get to him.

Vic pressed a button on his arm, which got rid of the cloak, turning him into his normal cyborg self. He walked over to his computer and plugged himself into the USB drive. He felt a relaxing surge of energy and was free to check his email, which he did.

"Damn," Vic commented,looking at his inbox. "Only one message from...Robin?" He said surprised, and with a bit of anger. He quickly clicked the email, and Robin's message floated into view.

Dear Vic,

Vic, I'm having some problems with Jump City. I can't stand how these terrorists like Deathstroke and The Joker think that they can just come into our old city and start to wreck havoc. I came to the Tower, and the whole thing was destroyed and covered in graffiti! It was terrible.

But I have something more important to address. Vic, I need you to come back. I mean, I need you to come help me resurrect the Titans. Me, you, Starfire, Garfield, Raven... just think about it! It'll be just like old times! Don't you remember? Fighting crime, going to the pizza parlor, playing games... It'll be perfect.

Vic, I need you to take this into consideration. I can't take on these guys all by myself. I'll be crushed. Please, please, please, at least write me back and tell me why you can't come.

Your Friend,

Dick Grayson

Vic snorted as he looked at the letter. Who did he think he was? Did he really think that after what he did, that anyone would want to come back and help him. Victor disconnected his connection to his computer and walked away. Robin always had his crazy dreams, and until they were fulfilled or demolished, he would not give up.

Vic would not be coming back to the Titans.

TTTTTTTTTT

Robin knew it was inevitable that he would have to face Bane. Unfortunately, he would have to face Bane while he was at the bottom of his game as well.

Bane ferociously picked up the closest thing to him, a banking table, and tossed it with tremendous force at Robin. The metal table was flying at him at breakneck speed, but somehow the table missed by a hair as he flattened himself to the ground. Robin hurriedly pushed himself back up, only to notice now that Bane was charging at him.

Before he could react Bane delivered a crushing bow to Robin's chest, causing him to fly backwards and lose his grip on his bow-staff. Robin collided with the apartment building behind, sending a shock wave of pain through his spine. His suit was able to absorb some of the shock of the blow, but not all of it. As quick as he could he got back to his feet.

But Bane was relentless. He had been charing once more, and slammed Robin through the

brick wall, into an apartment building. Robin landed in an abandoned living room with Bane on top of him, his five hundred pound plus weight crushing him. Bane smirked as he delivered a haymaker to Robin's face, which caused him to spit out blood.

Bane then stood up, looking over the fallen body of the boy wonder. "Not so tough without your toys, huh little boy?" He said, picking up Robin by his cape. Bane seemed to stand there for a moment, observing Robin, and then paused again. "You know kid, I want to break you now. I want to hear you cry and beg for mercy, and then I wanna listen to you scream when I snap you like a twig." Bane cackled maniacally after this statement, and tossed Robin against another wall like a ragdoll. "So, let me hear it boy wonder. Beg for you life, and I'll let you live another night,"

TTTTTTTTTT

"Sir, I think we may have a problem," A man said, sweating profusely as he walked into the dark office of his master. "You know Bruno and Tony, sir?" The man said, wiping off the sweat from his brow onto his sleeve. He waited for his reply.

"Yes, Mr. Broxton," The boss said in his normally cool and calm voice. He sat at his desk, staring eagerly at the information Broxton was brining him. Normally, Broxton was the man who delivered the highly important news to him.

Broxton stuttered again. "We-Well, Mr. Wilson, It appears that JCPD found them tied up to a street post, and their was a strange "R" insignia attached to their-"

Broxton was cut off by Mr. Wilson slamming his fist on the desk. Wilson was bubbling over with rage, but within a matter of seconds, he had once again calmed down and regained his cool. "So, Dick Grayson has decided to come back to Jump City? He has made a very bad decision..." Wilson, who was really the fierce man known as Deathstroke the Terminator, commented. "Get reconnaissance out there. I want to know where he is hiding, what he is doing, who he is fighting. NOW!" he yelled.

"Ye-Yes, Deathstroke," Mr. Broxton stuttered, and hurried out the room.

Deathstroke was finally going to get to face his arch-nemesis once more.

TTTTTTTTTTTT

Robin's vision was blurred, but he was still able to see the ugly, masked face of Bane. "So, let me hear it boy wonder. Beg for you life, and I'll let you live another night," Bane said, cracking his knuckles once more. Robin couldn't give in to Bane, Bruce didn't and neither would he. Yet, there had to be someway...

"Ne...Never Bane. You'll never hear those words come out of my mouth.." Robin coughed up more blood, and propped himself up against the wall.

"Your foolish, just like that old Bat. So how do you want to die Robin? How about after I break you in half, I toss you off a trapeze or something, just like your parents. How's that sound?" Before Bane could take one more step towards him, Robin tossed a electric disk from his utility belt, attaching itself to Bane's chest.

Bane looked down in horror for a second, and then he received a devastating electric shock that spread through his system, heating up his Venom drug and causing his pipelines to burst, gushing the drug all over the room. Bane let out a faint scream as he size drastically decreased, sending him falling down to the ground. Bane had passed out on the floor from the lack of his drug.

Weakly, Robin pressed a button on his belt, causing his motorcycle to come flying towards where he was. Every bone in his body ached, but he would take care of it when he got back to the tower. For now, all he needed to focus on was getting home.

TTTTTTTTTTTT

It was raining in Jump City when she arrived, causing her to feel more gloomy then she normally felt. Her cloak was soaking wet, which therefore, made her entire body wet; meaning, it was freezing cold.

Yet, for some reason, she did not know why she had returned. Was it because she was on the run and this is the only place where some people dare not go? It could be that. But, maybe, just maybe, fate had actually brought her here.

Rachel Roth looked up at the tower, and saw that it's beauty was gone, and it also showed to villains that they could run rampant with their town. Coming back one year later, the tower seemed truly different.

Rachel walked into the tower, finally feeling comforted because she was inside and no longer being rained on. The main entrance was also broken and covered in graffiti, but she would not be down her for long. She transformed and merely teleported up to the top.

The top, somehow, she found had been cleaned and well kept. Had someone been here recently...? She shook off the thought and looked around. It was just how they had once known, except that everything but the big screen TV was gone.

Suddenly, Rachel whirled around as she heard the elevator behind her start up. Quietly she snuck over to the kitchen and hid behind "the island", a somewhat of a table in the middle of the kitchen.

TTTTTTTTTT

"Where is Alfred when you need him..." Robin muttered as he stepped into the elevator, holding himself up by his bow-staff. The elevator was as smooth as it could be, to Robin's surprise, and let him off on the top floor.

He limped out of the elevator and took off his cape and chest attire and threw them on the ground. It had been his first night on the job, and he was already feeling the strain of once again being a lone titan.

Robin's ears then perked up. He could swear that he could hear breathing in the kitchen, but he couldn't be sure... Casually, Robin walked over to the front of the island and stopped. He continued to follow the noise, until he was brutally jumped upon by something and slammed to the ground. He tried to roll, the person still on top of him, and get out of their grasp, but Robin got the advantage and got on top, using all of his body weight to press the assailant down. When he looked into the face of the person, he was shocked. He could feel her breath heavy on his face, which was only inches away from hers.

"Robin?"

"Raven?" They said simutaneously.

TTTTTTTTTTTT

Well, thanks for reading everyone! Hopefully I'll have another chapter up by tommorow!
