OMG. THERE'S A SHORT UPDATE...BUT STILL AN UPDATE!

Superman stared up in terror as brainiac grew larger into the sky; he was growing into a giant that could crush the city with one footfall. He seethed in anger way to leave us, Bruce he thought, the now large Brainiac's eyes followed Flash as he ran towards him, a streak of red, a blur of flying limbs, Brainiac picked up a large pipe…to the beast it was nearly a toothpick and threw it at the speedster.

"Flash, look out!" he hear himself scream, the red suited man stopped abruptly and turned to run when the pipe struck his leg, completely impaling it. Flash's knee burst blood and he fell, his skin hanging open, and the visible muscles hung from the wound like worms.

"Barry!" Green Lantern screamed running towards the fallen man, Superman shook in anger as he watched Flash writhe in agony, blood gushing through his fingers, the speedster was retching uncontrollably, while GL patted his back and covered them with a green shield.

"UNRGHH!" Superman flew towards the monster with a barbaric yell, punching the beast's chest, smoke erupted from the blow. You better have a good explanation, Batman. Wonder Woman's lasso snared brainiac's legs as he fell, tripping him into a nearby lake. His circuits sizzled as water seeped into his electronics.

"We're good here J'onn! Go find Batman" Green Arrow sent an arrow into the lake covering the water with electricity; the green Martian nodded and disappeared

"God damn Batman" Diana mumbled with a shake of her head "him and his dramatic exits"

The zeta beams recognized Batman as he entered Mount Justice, Megan met him at the transporter

"It's a blood clot!" she said fear lacing her voice "and it's progressed too much…it's putting too much pressure on his nervous system, his body will shut down to try and preserve itself…and he's too weak to wake up again!" Megan took a deep breath and shuddered with sobs, Batman patted her shoulder awkwardly.

"Shh it's ok…I had a hunch it was a blood clot…from when the Riddler hit him" Megan shuddered,

"Should I call the others?"

"No. Not yet" The zeta beams announced Martian Manhunter, Batman turned to meet him "what are you doing here?"

"Checking on you, friend…is anything amiss?" Batman walked towards the medical bay, J'onn and Megan close at his heels,

"Robin has a blood clot…can you operate?" J'onn frowned

"It's is possible…but in his weak condition, we can not guarantee he will survive the anesthetic strain" Batman placed his hand on the medical bay door, his son. HIS son was just on the other side…so why did he seem so far away? We don't operate he dies…we do and he may die but he may live…

"We'll have to take our chances" J'onn nodded and pushed through the door

"I will use light anesthetic…I'd like you to wait outside" J'onn said addressing both Batman and Megan, Megan nodded gently

"No way in hell! He's my son; I'm going to be with him in case…" Batman never finished his sentence. The stress of the past few days and the exhaustion washed over him and blackness consumed him.

The zeta beams recognized the Justice League, they were scratched and bruise from their long but victorious fight against Brainiac. Superman was helping a limping Flash; his knee almost completely bent backwards, white jagged bone like teeth cutting through ruined flesh, Flash screamed and Superman set him on the floor. Kid flash ran in a look of horror etched on his face, Super Boy, Artemis, Red Arrow and Aqualad followed.

"Are you ok?" Kid Flash asked desperately kneeling next to his mentor, gagging at the site.

"M'fine kid…went completely though" Flash managed a shaky smile, a second passed…then he threw up.

"Where the hell is Batman?" Superman growled patting Flash as he retched "how could he just leave us like that?"

Suddenly Megan screamed from somewhere in the mountain.

"MEGAN!" Superboy shouted leaping towards the medical bay, smashing through a wall, the other heroes minus Flash and Aquaman, who'd stayed behind to help Flash, quickly followed. "MEGAN?"

The heroes gasp at what they saw

Megan was on the floor lying over a limp Batman.

"He just collapsed!" Megan sobbed "I don't know what happened!"
