He guys sorry for the wait. College finals are a killer and I had this thing called Quest Day where I had to present some of my research to strangers, professors, students, and visitors. It was enough to make my head spin. I got this chapter in though so I'm happy and there are only 1 or 2 more chapters to go. Wow this is turning a lot shorter than I thought it was going to be. Is this good or bad?
Because of all this work I didn't have time to thank and answer everyone's reviews so here are some I want to answer:
Glimare- thank you for the name of the comic. I knew there was one out there that dealt with what I was doing but I couldn't find it.
luvthesea17- you are not annoying you are most awesome. I do the same thing as well so I can't really say anything lol.
To everyone else- thank you all for reviewing and saying you think it's original and you like it. If you are also writer then you know that reviews are always the best. Thank you all for sticking with me.
So just in case you forgot Robin has disappeared from the cave after getting information on Zucco and the evil villain has caused the Justice League to reassemble even if just temporarily. So…yeah enjoy.
Chapter 6: Running out of Time
The darkness concealed the figure of Robin running over the roof tops of Gotham. With the greatest of easy he did a flip over the buildings side and onto the next apartment without missing a beat. He didn't know if it was his determination that allowed him to do the dangerous stunts so easily or if that crazy idea of him being a superhero in another life, but he didn't stop to think about it. The only thing that ran through his head was to get to the warehouse before Tony Zucco slipped through his fingers.
He stopped at the edge of the building and looked down at the warehouse district; the wind billowed through his cape causing it to almost curl around his small body. He squinted into the dark and saw one warehouse with that illuminated in the darkness with lights that crept from the windows and under the doors. The door slid open with a thud and Robin ducked.
"I heard the girls down in The Lion's Den are pretty good," a man stated with a gruff voice.
"Na man I just want to head home," another man spoke. The rounded the corner and a few minutes later came back in separate cars. Robin watched as the Mob bosses of Gotham filed out. Dick quickly unzipped his duffle bag and pulled out the small gun. He looked back down with the gun aiming at the people below.
He saw Black Mask and Ruby Ryder head of Gotham's drug and gun ring in the North and West districts. They got into the car together snuggling closely. Then the heavy set Lawrence Loman "the Squid" trod out after them and got in his own car. He was head of the South district which just left one more; the East district.
Putting the gun in his utility belt Robin pulled out a grappling gun and shot it towards the warehouse getting it on his first try. He looked down and let out a slight breath. He hadn't done this in a long time…since his parent's murder in fact. He shuffled to the edge and let go flying through the air. He couldn't help but release a small smile at the feeling of the air rushing through his hair and he hit the ground rolling out of the fall.
He ran to one of the windows that was broken and slowly maneuvered himself through the broken glass cutting his arm and cheek in the process. He quietly walked through the warehouse and when he heard talking hid behind a few boxes that were labeled "Sardines" but was positive it was more likely to be drugs or ammunition.
"I can't believe you did it boss," a buff man said as he stood to the side of a large table. Robin saw another man sitting on the chair with his feet propped up on the tabletop; Zucco
"Who would have known that after just a few years of the "protection" service that I would be head of the East part of Gotham…my favorite part too," the man laughed. Robin growled and then looked up at the rafters. He wrapped his hands around one of the pillars and began to climb up.
"We are going places my friend," Zucco said happily. "And there is no one that is going to stop us."
A child's laugh bounced off the walls. Zucco stood up quickly as a shadow of a cape figure flew across one of the walls.
"Boss what was that?" the henchman asked taking out his own gun. "It looked like the Batman."
"That wasn't the Batman you numbskull...it can't be." Zucco said looking all around. Robin dropped from the rafter's right onto the shoulders of the henchman and the large man shot the gun off in surprise. Robin lifted his arms with his fists together and brought them down over the man's head. The thug went down with his gun skidding over to Zucco. The mob boss made a grab for it but as soon as he lifted the gun off the ground and held it out, Robin jumped in front of him and round house kicked the gun out of Zucco's hands. The man looked back to the weapon and when he turned back to Robin his eyes widen at the teen's own gun held at his face and ready to shoot.
Zucco put his hands up in the air and took a step back.
"Don't move," Robin threatened and Zucco stopped.
"Wha…what to you want?" Zucco asked with sweat dripping down his head.
"I want you to pay for ruining my life," Robin said holding the gun out further.
"Wait please stop…I'll give you whatever you want," the mob boss stumbled.
"Can you bring back the dead?" Robin said with gritted teeth and cocked the gun.
"What…no," Zucco said staring at the gun in fear.
"Then you can't give me anything," he said and pulled the trigger.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Batman ran across the roof tops as fast as he could. He pulled out his grappling gun and swung through the air. He had put two and two together as he left the cave and knew what Dick Grayson was after; Tony Zucco.
After reading the files on the computers memories banks and learning that it was Tony Zucco that had sabotaged the Flying Grayson's trapeze and he remembered that the thug was being initiated into the Crime bosses little club. There would only be one reason why the teen would come out here and that would be to get his revenge on Zucco. He was the greatest detective for a reason.
He finally made it to the warehouse and saw a broken window with small traces of fresh blood on it. Robin…no….Dick was already here. He broke the window wider and melted into the shadows as he entered the large building. He heard the shouting and went towards it.
"Wait please stop…I'll give you whatever you want," Batman heard an older man call out.
"Can you bring back the dead?" he heard Robin and then a click of gun being cocked.
Batman ran forward his hand stretched outward as Tony begged and Robin spoke. "Then you can't give me anything."
The trigger went off and Batman stopped short of the boy's back. The masked bat donned a frown but his eyes widen when Robin's arm dropped and the gun slipped from his hands with a loud skid to the ground.
Batman looked over at the newly appointed crime boss who sat on the floor breathing heavily; a bullet whole marking the wall behind him. Zucco's eyes rolled into the back off his head and fainted from fear.
"You…you missed," Batman said relieved for once the child was untrained in accuracy.
"I didn't miss," Robin stated and turned to Batman. Tears rolled down the side of his cheeks leaving stain marks as it mixed with the blood from the cut on his cheek. "It went exactly where I wanted it to go."
Batman looked back at the unconscious man and then back at the bot who was staring into his eyes. No one has ever looked directly into Batman's eyes before, all of them veered at the sight of his cowl. The child's stare almost unnerved him.
"I thought you wanted him dead," Batman said walking over to the fallen man, flipping him over and cuffing his hands behind his back.
"I did," Robin said behind him. "I still do."
Batman turned back to Robin.
"But isn't my place to do it…is it?" Robin said finally looking down. "I asked him if he could bring back the dead…he said he couldn't," robin then said with a laugh. "That's when I realized that killing him won't bring my family back either and that my parents would be ashamed of me for even thinking of hurting anyone."
"You might not be able to kill him but you can still get the justice your family deserves," Batman said walking up to Robin.
"How?" Robin said wiping away tears. "There was never any evidence that he tampered anything at the circus except for rumors and it was so long ago."
"There is no statute of limitations on murder Dick. You are also forgetting that I can get anyone to confess," Batman said and walked off. Robin swore he saw the man smirk and it sent a chill down his spine. Batman came back with a small round device the size of his thumb.
"I've had this hidden in this warehouse for a while recording Black Mask and his little group for months. This will keep Zucco and the rest in jail for at least a few months and while he's there I can help figure out a way to put him jail for your family's murder."
"You would do that for me?" Robin asked as Batman picked up the gun and placed it into his belt. He didn't answer Robin's question but he didn't need to. Robin nodded and helped tie Zucco and his thug to one of the pillars. Batman called the cops and the two of them walked out the front door. Batman looked down at the teen who was busy fumbling with grappling hook. He sighed deeply. He had a feeling that he was going to have his hands full with this one. He didn't know how the him from the other time line was able to do it.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaa
"Robin," M'gann sang as the boy wonder and Batman walked through the Zeta tube. She and the team had spent the better part of the night sitting on the floor in front of the tubes, uncomfortably to say the least.
"You are back, and unharmed?" Aqualad asked. Robin looked up at Batman and then back at the team.
"More or less," he said.
"But you are hurt," M'gann said flying over to Robin and reaching for the rip in his sleeve that had a slight bit of crusted blood on it.
"Oh he's been through worse," Artemis said with a smile just happy that the young teen was alright. Superman, Wonder Woman, and Flash walked in to the room hearing the commotion.
"Hey kid," Flash said walking over to Robin. "Had a fun night out with the bat I see."
Batman walked past Flash and over to the computer.
"So are you going to tell us where you were?" Wonder Woman asked. Robin looked guiltily over to Batman.
"It's not important," Batman said sternly. "What is important is that I finally figured out the change in Robin's past that changed everything so drastically."
"You did," Superman said walking up to the holographic screen.
"Yes," Batman answered and two screens popped up of two different newspaper articles. One was the article that Batman had shown the group before of Dick's family falling to their deaths. The other article was almost the same thing; expect it spoke about Richard being taken in By Bruce Wayne and how Batman and his new sidekick uncovered that the bolts were tampered with on the trapeze set.
"Yeah I already told you about the difference," Artemis said. "We need to know why you didn't solve the case or why you didn't take Dick in."
Batman made a new screen pop up of another article. The headline wrote "Jokers Joke foiled again."
"What's this got to do with anything," Superboy asked.
"It's the same date as the accident," Robin said reading the news headline.
"So instead of taking care of the Flying Grayson murder…" Wally started.
"I was taking down Joker," Batman finished.
"So what…Time Catcher just went into the past and sent the Joker on you so you wouldn't be interested in solving the death of Robin's family?" Artemis asked.
"Well," Superboy began and all eyes were on him. When Superboy saw Superman glare at him he looked away. M'gann placed a hand on his shoulder to continue.
"Well what," Batman urged him on. Superboy looked back up at the Bat.
"When I was in Cadmus's pod I was taught a lot about the people who ran the world which included Bruce Wayne. I was taught that he was at the circus when the Flying Grayson's were murdered and that's why he took Dick in," Superboy said.
"And because Bruce Wayne didn't see it, he did not take in Dick," Aqualad said putting the pieces together.
"Well then we can fix this easy," Wally said.
"Really," Flash said behind his nephew. "And do tell us how we are going to fix all of this."
"Well it's going to be tough getting there of course but now we know what to fix. We just need at least one person to go back in time and either stop Joker from escaping or to make sure Bruce Wayne gets to the circus. Problem solved," the teen said happily. The group looked at him with glares and Wally laughed awkwardly.
"And how do you suppose we find Time Catcher to get the time machine?" Artemis asked.
"You can use me," Robin said and everyone turned to the quiet teen. "They want me right. I mean it seems like he's even hiring outside help like Poison Ivy to catch me so if I find one of the criminals in Gotham then maybe we can lure him out."
"It could work," Aqualad stated.
"You can't seriously be thinking about it," Artemis exclaimed.
"What choice do we have," Aqualad stated.
"Would that be safe?" M'gann asked.
"Of course not," Artemis said her voice cracking as it rose in anger. "Even if we are able to draw Time Catcher out he could kill Robin before we change anything and you know that whatever happens here happens in our timeline. We might go back to find him dead."
"We don't have much of a choice Artemis," Aqualad stated.
"We can keep him safe and then we can go home," M'gann said backing up her team's leader. Superboy looked down at her in surprise and pulled himself away from his girlfriend.
"We can't seriously be thinking of sacrificing Robin just so we can go back. The reason why we started this is so we can go back to the way things were," the Black haired teen stated. Robin was one of the reason's he was out of that forsaken Pod in Cadmus. Superboy wasn't about to throw the boy to the wolves.
The four teens began shouting at each other at once. Artemis got right into Aqualad's face with a pointed finger at his chest and frustration was molded onto M'gann's face. No one knew what to do as they watched the teens fight it out. Wally looked from one to the next and then spotted Robin who was clenching his fists.
"Quiet," he finally shouted and the team stopped staring at the bird. "This is my decision and I'm going. Even if it's not to fix the world I don't want to be stuck looking over my shoulder every day wondering when this guy is going to get me. You can help me if you want but its fine if you don't."
With that Robin walked out of the room and Batman looked at the group. It was still very early in the morning where the sun hasn't even risen yet and he could see everyone was still tired.
"I think we should all go back to bed," Superman said gesturing to the hallway with the beds. Artemis 'hmphed' and walked past Aqualad bumping him in the shoulder. M'gann lifted herself from the ground and floated after the archer and leader. Superboy took one last look at Superman and with a gruff look he walked along side Wally.
After getting back into his room Wally tossed and turned in his bed. He was trying to decide in his own head what the right decision was. He wanted off this plane of existence as soon as possible. He wanted super speed like his uncle and fight bad guys with the rest of the team. Not be stuck with his alcoholic father wondering when his mom was finally going to get up enough courage to come home. At the same time though, he was worried for Robin's safety. He hadn't known the kid for long but he felt like they had been with each other forever.
A knock was heard on his door and he looked up.
"Come in," he announced groggily. The door opened and then slipped shut as someone entered. He squinted through the darkness to see who it was. The bed bent downward as someone climbed on the bed. He gasped as arms wrapped around his shoulders and felt long hair drape down his arm. "Artemis?" he asked.
"Can we just…just sit here like this for a little bit," she said quietly. She sounded like she had been crying but Wally didn't say anything and wrapped his own arms around her lithe waist. Neither of them knew how long they were sitting like that and then Artemis pulled herself out of the hug.
"Need to talk about it?" Wally finally asked.
"It's really stupid," Artemis said wiping her hand under her eyes.
"Try me," Wally smiled. The room became silent.
"I don't know what to do. I never know what to do and all I do is follow everyone else's decisions," she said in a low angry voice. "It's either do what my mother wants me to do, Follow my father's orders or carry out the missions the Justice league wants me to carry out. Now when every fiber of my being tells me this is a terrible idea a part of me is still just telling me to follow everyone else. But I just can't do that to Robin."
"There is nothing wrong about not knowing what to do in a situation like this. I think though if you really want people to stop treating you as a follower, you that you need to take some initiative. Take charge and prove to them that you can do more then follow directions," Wally said.
"I don't know…" Artemis said with a sigh. She looked over at Wally and once again found herself staring at his lips. He did just tell her to take charge right? But it's Wally the guy who calls her names and fights with her constantly. But this isn't that Wally.
"Artemis?" Wally asked as she grabbed the back of his neck and pulled him into a crushing kiss. He pulled away with a gasp and then brought their mouths back together. Artemis pushed Wally back and feverishly ran her hands over his body pushing his shirt up. She sat up so she was practically on top of him and he held her against him. Artemis pulled herself from him again and they breathed heavily.
"Wha…what was that?" the red head asked dumbly.
"I don't know," Artemis said as Wally went to bring his lips upon her again. She was taking action. She realized she always wanted to kiss Wally all this time but was always waiting for him to take the first step. What was it that Robin said to her? Get traught or get dead. That may be to extreme of an example. She wondered if this Robin would say the same thing; it was the same world and technically the same person….the same world. Artemis pulled herself from Wally with a gasp.
"What," Wally asked his voice hazy with lust.
"I got it!" Artemis said looking at Wally straight in the eyes. "I'm sorry but I have to go," She said leaning in and giving Wally a kiss on the cheek. She got up and left quickly slamming the door shut behind her. Wally sat on his bed with his mouth hanging a gape.
"Are you kidding me," he said falling back and throwing a pillow onto his face.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
The next morning the league had reconvened.
"We need to know what we are going to do," Flash stated.
"I said I would use myself to bring out Time Catcher," Robin said. "He wants me and he'll reveal himself if I'm out in the open."
"No," Artemis voice rang out and everyone turned to her.
"I told you last night that I was going to do this," Robin said back to her in anger.
"And I told you last night that you weren't. Besides I have a better plan." Artemis said. She brought up a computer screen and looked at the table. She suddenly realized that everyone's eyes were on her; all the greatest of the greats waiting for her to speak her plan. With a small gulp she made a map of the United States appear and a small red blip should up in the lower part of New York.
"That's Metropolis," Superman stated.
"What does it mean," Wonder Woman asked.
"When we first encountered Time Catcher it was because Batman had dispatched us to check out an energy anomaly in New York City. When we got there we found out the anomaly was the Time Catchers machine. Now that same irregularity has been spotted in Metropolis's power plant."
"I'm still not buying it. That could just be the energy from the power plant," Green Arrow stated.
"Well it's not," Artemis said. It felt exhilarating talking back to her mentor. She took it now since she knew she would never get to do it again.
"It would not hurt to check it out," Wonder Woman said and some of the other heroes nodded.
Before anyone could say anything else an alarm went off. Batman turned on the screen and a video of Iris West appeared on the news.
"It seems that Mirror mask is attacking the city bank. This wouldn't be so strange if it wasn't for the fact that we have gotten news that other cities around the country are also having their banks being hit by villains simultaneously. Each of these heists have multiple hostages and it leaves people to wonder where the cities super heroes are."
"It's a distraction," Batman stated. "Time Catcher must be getting ready to use his machine."
"Well the distraction is working," Flash frowned and began walking to the Zeta tubes.
"You can't just go," the yellow uniform clad teen said looking at his uncle.
"Central City comes first Kid. Your mysterious energy spike will just have to wait."
"Wait," Captain Marvel spoke. "Let me take care of Central City."
The heroes looked at the man in surprise. "While some of us go protect the city the rest should go to Metropolis."
"So who goes to fight Time Catcher and who goes to the banks?" M'gann asked.
"Your team will obviously go to Metropolis," Batman said. "Superman, Wonder woman, Flash, Green Arrow and I will accompany you. The rest will take the other cities."
The heroes all nodded agreeing with him.
"I guess I can stay here and monitor," Black Canary sighed and held the upper part of her pregnant stomach.
"Good you can watch Robin and him," Flash said getting behind Wally and pushing him slightly towards the pregnant hero.
"What?" both Wally and Robin shouted "But…?" Wally started.
"But what?" Flash said putting his arms on his hips. "You don't have any powers nor have you had any training. You and Robin aren't going to help us fight a bad guy who can send you through time."
Wally looked over to Artemis and the group to see if they would help bail him and Robin out but they just stood there awkwardly. Artemis walked up to him.
"I'm sorry Wa…Kid Flash," she said. "I think it's a good idea for you to stay behind as well…I don't want to see you getting hurt especially if it will carry over to my timeline."
Wally looked away but he knew she was right. He wouldn't be able to do anything. Black Canary walked over to the two kids.
"You both can help me," the blond haired woman said. "I am going to be patched into Batman's video and audio network and hopefully we can hack into the security cameras at the plant."
Wally nodded sadly. "Yeah," he answered and Robin just looked away.
Artemis placed her hand on his shoulder and smiled.
"Hopefully this will be the last time we see each other," Artemis said. "And I mean that in the nicest way possible."
"I guess you'll see me on the other side," Wally laughed. "Just do me a favor?"
"Yeah sure," Artemis said.
"Tell him the truth. That you like me…him. I think you both may need it and if he's anything like me then you need to pull it out of him."
Artemis felt tears come up behind her eyes. She only knew this Wally for a few days but she didn't want to lose him. He was right though. They are the same person and if she gave her Wally a chance maybe she could have the relationship that they deserved.
Artemis wrapped her arms around the surprised teen clad in yellow.
"I'm really going to miss you," she said and Wally wrapped his arms around her resting his chin on her shoulder. He looked over at M'gann, Conner, and Kalder who were watching the two.
"You guys want to join?" he asked with a laugh and opened his arms. M'gann flew into them crushing Artemis and Wally into a hug and was soon met with the two guys. They all looked over at Robin who stood there awkwardly.
"I know you want one to," Wally laughed and Dick walked over to them. With a smile the older teens wrapped their arms around the younger boy.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Arrow, and the team walked out of the Zeta Tube disguised as a photo booth. One block over was the Metropolis power plant and the stopped in front of it.
"Wonder Woman, Flash and Green Arrow will go around back and we will take the front," Superman said. The two groups split up. Artemis readied her bow as Superman tore the door off its hinges and made their way into the power plant. After looking around for a few minutes the archer began to lower her bow. Maybe she had miscalculated and the energy signature really was just the plant giving off energy. Suddenly a laugh echoed through the large building.
"I recognize that annoying laugh anywhere," Superboy said in annoyance.
"Professor Ivo," all the teens said together. The man appeared above them at the upper level of the power plant. The team's eyes widen at the sight of the smaller man with his Amazo at his side and a bunch of monkeys running on the stairs and railings. Superboy growled.
"I hate monkeys," he announced.
"I thought we destroyed it," Artemis said remembering when she watched the boys fight the machine and she helped from the trees outside Gotham academy.
"I guess it survived in this time line," Superboy answered in anger and cracked his knuckles.
"How nice of you to join us," the small man announced casually. "Unfortunately you are not supposed to be here and I'm going to have to ask you to leave."
"Do you really think that we are going to do that," Aqualad asked forming a sword out of water.
"Happily for me, I didn't think that you would. Amazo destroy them," Ivo said and the android jumped to the ground causing the floor to shatter. Batman tapped his com link in his ear.
"Wonder Woman, Green Arrow, Flash we need you in front now," Batman said. Flash answered his call.
"Sorry Bats but we've got our own problems," Flash stated. On his end he and his partners were fighting monkeys as well. Green Arrow shot an arrow through a primate's head before everything began to spin. Turning around he fell to the ground only to see Count Vertigo come up in front of him. Green Arrow growled as the man smiled back at him.
Wonder Woman was having her own difficulties as Black Atom charged her. She jumped out of the way and grabbed her lasso from her hip. She managed to throw the rope over his head and tighten it around his neck but the large magic user tore it off easily.
Back with the group Superboy tore another ape apart as Superman flew pass him and tried to hit Amazo in the chest.
"Access Flash," Amazo stated before quickly dodging the man of steel. "Access Black Canary," it said again and screamed loudly at Superman knocking him backwards almost hitting Batman in the process. Artemis knocked an arrow and it flew at the android but before it could reach him though a monkey flew through the air and threw it away. Five of the simians fell from the ceiling and Artemis was at the mercy of the pile of monkeys. The others were having no better luck with the monkeys. They just kept on coming pulling at M'gann's hair and playing keep away with Aqualad's Water-Bearers.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Back at the mountain Robin and Kid Flash stared at the screen through Batman's eyes. They hated to say it but others were getting there butt's kicked. Kid Flash looked over and couldn't see Black Canary who went into the kitchen to get some food and drinks. He looked down at Robin who looked back at him.
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking," Kid Flash asked.
"If you're thinking that we shouldn't be here but helping them then yes," Robin responded and the two of them looked over at the Zeta Tubes.
'Recognize Kid Flash B03, Robin B01,' the computer announced as Black Canary spread mayonnaise on her sandwich. She dropped the spread and ran back to the computer room and her mouth dropped at the sight of the empty hall.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Batman jumped with the help of his grappling gun and soared through the air. Behind Professor Ivo he spotted a suspicious machine lighting up blue from the inside of itself. He landed on the other side of Amazo and went to kick the android.
"Access Superman," it said and Batman didn't even make a dent. He jumped backwards before the robot could hit him.
"Aqualad is that the machine?" Batman shouted and Aqualad looked over to see the white machine that he saw in the warehouse before.
"Yes that is it. We need to get to it," he said but as he tried to make a run for it the primates piled on top of him. He was pushed downward by the sheer amount. He looked over at his team and all of them were in the same predicament. He didn't know where Ivo had gotten so many machines. He suddenly heard a 'thunk' and beeping sounds.
A small explosion was felt on his side enough to blow up a few monkeys to his left but leave him unscathed. Aqualad looked over to thank Batman for the assistance but saw that he and Superman were still in a deadlock with Amazo. He heard a crackle and understood who it was.
"Robin," he said as the small teen landed next to him. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm a hero aren't I? I couldn't just let you be defeated without my help."
"Forget me," Aqualad stated. "Get to that machine and try to shut it down. We need to re-set it."
Robin hesitated but ran off to the machine.
Artemis was trying to pry a monkey off her hair but her arms were being dragged down. Suddenly she felt her hair break free and she watched Kid Flash toss the primate at the wall hard and it smashed to pieces.
"What are you doing here," she yelled.
"Glad to see you too," Wally laughed as he tried to fight off more of the primates.
"You are just as much of an idiot as the other Kid Flash," Artemis complained. She looked over to her side and saw Robin go for the machine. A monkey threw itself through the air at him and she pried her bow and arrow from one of the small machines. Her arrow flew through the air and the machine exploded on impact. Robin stopped and looked over to him. He gave them a thumbs up and continued to run.
Robin made it over to the machine and opened the panel. His eyes swept over the buttons and ports. A small keyboard sat in the middle and he began to type somehow with knowledge he didn't know he had. He knew it must have to do with his 'other self' knowing how to hack. As he tried to figure out how to dismantle the machine he felt a shadow sneak up behind him.
He turned around quickly and took a quick breath as immense pain filled his chest. He looked up weakly to see Time catcher stare down at him with a happy smile and crazed eyes. Robin then looked down slowly at his chest and found that Time Catcher had run his sword completely through his chest. The villain pulled it out and with a sickening squish the sword came out covered in red. Robin placed his hand on his chest and pulled it away his black glove now covered in a dark stain.
"Robin!" M'gann cried out and the rest looked over at Robin.
"No!" Wally shouted as Robin spit up a small amount of blood from his mouth and lit it drip down his chin. He fell backwards against the machine with a wet gasp.
"Looks like I won't need to go back in time again after all," Time Catcher said happily.
Whew got it down finally. So now that the season is over I can't rant a little bit which you can totally skip because it's not important to the story…
So I feel super smart that I figured out who the mole was. I thought it was Red arrow since they first said there was one and for none of the right reasons. I just thought that because in the comics he was a coke addict who finds out he's related to Savage, has a daughter with Chestier and of course he works with the Red Hood (Jason Todd) on missions that they would make him somehow bad in this. Also he was WAY too eager to point fingers at almost everyone on the Young Justice team and I thought he was doing that purposely.
Now that that's taken care of I would like to say things I like about the second season starting and the things I find that I will be disappointed in.
Good: Artemis and Wally FINALLY KISS. Can anyone else say they didn't see that coming by episode 7?
Bad: While I think that Robin and Zatanna would be cute together I think they pushed it a little. The writers spent episodes on developing M'gann and Superboy and Artemis and Wally's relationship and then just said 'well let's make everyone go out with everyone by the last episode. Not cool.
Good: New hero's and an awesome new plot. I love beast boy and I love how they changed his origin story. Can't wait to see it.
Bad: I've seen a lot of the new character design and while there are a lot of cool characters…WHERE IS KIDFLASH AND ARTEMIS. I've seen the new design of Aqualad, Miss Martian, Superboy, Robin (What is with his hair) and I even got to see an awesome pic of Batgirl (super excited) but where is my spitfire . Just going to have to wait and see.
Rant over lol
Review Kindly Please
