Robin had been officially dead for over a minute now.

The only person moving in the room was Batman as he tore the room apart piece by piece

"Where the hell is the AED!" He growled, finally his face lit up and he yanked it out of one of the strewn open cabinets by the cord, it clattered to the floor, he flipped the switch, rubbed the paddles and pressed it to the still boy's chest,

ZAAANGPAH! Robin arched off the bed.

"Clear! Again!" Superman hollered rushing forward to hold the boy still

ZAAANGPAH! Robin arched but his face remained peaceful, it had been 2 minutes. By now the hopeless heroes in the background couldn't help but turn their faces away and cry. He was gone.

"Clear-!"

ZAAANGPAH!

"DAMN IT ROBIN, DON'T DO THIS!" Batman screamed as he pressed the paddles down again before superman yelled 'clear'

ZAAANGPAH! Batman threw the paddles aside and they sparked against the tile floor, he sank into the chair and buried his face in his hands. Superman slowly let go of Robin and stepped back

"Bruce, I'm so sorry-"

"Save it Clark" Batman snapped glaring at the man of steel "I f***ing don't want to hear it" The Young Justice league where buried in their mentors arms, even Super Boy threw himself at Superman and truthfully Superman met him half way. Their sobs echoed in the room.

Bleep…Bleep…Bleep it started so faintly no one at first heard it.

Bleep…Bleep…Bleep

"Shut up!" Roy screamed, the heroes' sobs muffled "do you hear that?" The heart monitor which had been thrown to the grown n Batman's frantic search was hardly audible against the floor it emitted high pitched beats. Batman ran to Robin and placed a hand to the boys hair

"Robin?" He quavered "G-god Robin please" he swallowed and glanced back at the others "Richard" he whispered, KF ran over and placed a hand on Bruce's shoulder, he whispered something in the older man's ear and Bruce smiled "Richard you better wake up right now or I'll call Barbra to see you in this hospital gown" Batman wondered how Wally knew about her, but figured the boys was probably told by his best friend. Robin's eye lashes fluttered and the boy groaned, a collective gasp of relief was shared

"Hawk Girl to Mount Justice" the heroes turned toward the small screen flicking in the corner of the room "how is Robin?" No one answered, perhaps because no one knew

"He is alive" J'onn said matter-of-factly and glanced at the small boy, "what is it you acquire?" Hawk Girl beckoned to Green Lantern and both of their faces filled the screen

"We need the Justice league ASAP" GL said "somehow Brainiac is back and threatening to destroy our sun…we have to destroy his laser immediately…and you remember how it was last time we met" Flash shuddered and glanced at Superman

"He'srightweallhavetogo" he said "thekidswillwatchoverRobin" Batman frowned

"I'm staying with my son" he growled, with a threatening glare "and if ANY of you say otherwise I will personally kick your ass" the heroes gulped and inched towards the door

"I'm afraid not Batman" Superman said bravely "we need you…we're screwed otherwise, we have to FIND Brainiac first and that's were you come in…oh yeah, we also may need your kick ass threat to come in handy on this guy 'cause last time I believe it was the other way around" The heroes mouths dropped as the Clark and Bruce stood nose to nose, the was a thick silence

"Ok, ok" Superman looked away and backed off "stay here for all I care" Batman smiled knowing he'd just won but his mind flickered back to their previous fight with Brainiac, Batman's smile slipped away, Robin would hate the fact he'd stay to baby-sit him while the world needed him, Bruce glanced at his son

"Ok, I'll help you find him" Batman said stepping forward with his shoulder hunched "but then I come back here, got it?" Superman smiled

"Got it? Is that really a question?" Bruce placed a hand on Robin's hair and then followed the older heroes out,

"Look over him, ok?" Dianna said softly to the teens "you coming Roy?" Red Arrow frowned

"Like hell I'm leaving my brother" Black Canary smiled softly leading Dianna away. As soon as the teleporters and landing bay announced the Justice League's departure Roy turned to the others "OUT NOW!" He barked pointing to the door,

"Who made you king, jerk face?" Artemis yelled back, but Aqualad gently grabbed her arm

"I believe what he means to say is, please leave I'd like to talk to Robin alone" Artemis growled and crossed her arms grumbling she followed Megan and Super boy out of room, Kid Flash patted Aqualad's shoulder

"You should talk to him next Aqualad" they walked out side as the door slammed behind them, Aqualad looked thoughtful

"Perhaps I will"

Roy sat down in next to Robin on the bed; the boy was so small he hardly took up any space, leaving plenty of room for Roy. Red Arrow unsnapped his quiver from his back and threw it aside,

"Rob" he said softly grabbing a fist full of blanket before tugging it over the boy's form, "what the hell happened to you?" Roy breathed "you always so strong…and now because one jerk ass bastard got hold of you, you just fall apart? I mean what the hell? I mean yeah ok…so he raped you…bummer, kid you live in Gotham and…not gay, you look damn sexy compared to the freaks that live there" Roy punched him palm "You where always so strong, why can't you talk? Are you embarrassed…because you were so helpless…against one horny bitch?" Roy side swinging his legs over the side of the bed and staring at the floor.

"Rob listen I ain't here to ride your ass, it just you're my brother…you where there for me to look up too when I really needed someone to worship, we're more than best friends now…we're brothers…you know I'm not a sentimental sap hole, but damn Rob I don't know what I'd have done if you died, I guess that's why I'm being so hard on you…I want you to wake up soon, ok? Just so I can tell you that"

Robin heard someone talking though his fading consciousness; he just hoped it wasn't the last time he heard at all. He knew that with this clot he had to act fast…but then again he really couldn't act at all could he?
