Here's the next chapter! Sorry it is a bit... short.
I do not own Teen Titans or Batman.
As the new Dynamic Duo flew away from Gotham, Jason made a decision.
Riding in a high speed, specially made jet was not nearly as fun it sounded. At least, it wasn't if the only other person in the jet was Bruce, who was one of the least talkative guys ever.
Resting his chin on his gloved hand, the boy looked out the window at the passing clouds.
Bruce, noticing his ward's obvious boredom, smiled slightly.
"Bored?"
Underneath his mask, Jason rolled his eyes.
"Noooo. You are such interesting conversation, I couldn't possibly not be completely enthralled."
"... You do know your attempt to sound dignified while saying that was kind of ruined by the double negative."
"... Whatever."
As Jason started glaring out the windows, Bruce decided it was a good idea to fill his protégé in on the exact situation.
"As I already told you, we are going to Jump City."
"Mmmhmmm..."
"I think it might be best to tell you now that the reason the Joker will be there is because-"
"He's after the Golden Boy, and his team also, probably."
Bruce smiled again at the reasoning his ward had to have gone through to come up with this conclusion.
"Correct. Though calling the original Robin 'Golden Boy' is a bit much, don't you think?"
"No."
It was then that the older hero heard the bitterness in his young partner's voice. As he spoke again, he looked at Jason worriedly.
"Is there any reason why?"
The boy snorted, a firm scowl settling on his still small features.
"Well, just maybe you constantly talk about how freaking perfect he is. Also, I may have noticed that you get Jump City newspaper just to read any articles about him. Or-"
"Okay, you can stop now."
Jason looked at his mentor, annoyed.
"Guess I made my point?"
Sighing, Bruce answered.
"Yes, Robin. You realize I would do the same if you moved away?"
The boy turned towards the window again, mumbling under his breath. However, Bruce managed to hear two words that was enough to make him feel rather guilty.
"Doubt it."
As the skyline of Jump City approached, a giant T-shaped tower standing strikingly against the crystal blue sky, Batman sighed.
He was almost certain he would have to deal with two Robins that would both be very upset with him. Amazing...
~~~~~~~~~Dick and Jason are awesome~~~~~~~~~~~~Dick and Jason are awesome~~~~~~~
Though Robin's initial reaction was to be terrified of his worst nightmare somehow following him to his new home, his masked eyes soon narrowed in determination. He was the leader; if he didn't pull himself together, neither would the other Titans. If they were all just frozen in fear, there would be no chance for them to defeat the Joker.
The clown, however, noticed the terror that had quickly flashed through the Boy Wonder's face, and his already unnaturally large smile only widened.
"Ohh, did I surprise you, Robbie? Didn't know I was coming into town?"
The young hero reached for his bo staff as his team regained their senses around him. Soon not only he but all the Titans were in battle positions.
"What are you doing here, Joker?"
As the madman started laughing hysterically at something only he found funny, Starfire looked at Robin quizzically. Knowing that he would have to explain everything later, Robin ignored his girlfriend's expression, instead focusing on the psychotic who was supposed to be in Arkham in Gotham.
As the laughter died down, the Joker looked directly at the Boy Wonder, a look of pure evil in his red eyes.
"Well, Boy Blunder, I'm here... for you."
Suddenly, the smoke was beginning to cover the whole mall. Reacting quickly, Robin dashed towards where he saw the Joker, but once he made it there, the madman was gone. When the smoke cleared, the psychotic clown was gone.
Now fiercely determined, Robin walked towards the exit seriously, his teammates following close behind him.
"Dude, was that the Joker as in... the Joker? The biggest bad like, ever?"
Looking at the slightly scared face of Beast Boy, Robin sighed.
"Yes, he was the Joker."
Cyborg snorted.
"No wonder he was cowardly enough to just escape with some smoke; only the real bad guys do that."
"We should just be glad it wasn't laughing gas! He wasn't ever planning to do anything today. He just wanted to send out a warning to... me," the leader explained to Cyborg, not looking back from his straight line towards the T-Car.
As they entered the vehicle and started driving towards their tower home, Starfire spoke out.
"I must ask, for everyone else seems to know, but who is this Joker man that has everyone so frightened? He looked terrifying, but why is he 'the biggest bad ever'?"
Robin opened his mouth to explain, despite the fact a migraine from the day's events was developing. However, Raven soon gave him a look, and turned to the alien girl to explain herself. Sitting back, grateful that the empath knew he was currently in pain, he looked up at their approaching home-
-Only to see the Batjet parked on the roof, with Bruce and the replacement Robin standing directly next to it.
This day could not possibly get worse.
It'll pick up next chapter, I promise. Dick and Jason will meet each other; that upon itself will be awesome.
Please review!
