Super sorry that it's taken me so long to post this, I've had major writers block and I literally had to write out a story plan on my bedroom wall with a blue marker just so the ideas would flow.

Please let this chapter be good enough for your liking anyway!

I don't own Young Justice.


Flash, Green Arrow, Martian Manhunter, and Green Lantern were all following the Dark Knight to locations unknown to them. They didn't bother asking any questions, considering all they would get is shady answers. But that didn't mean that walking through dark hallways of the Watchtower that they'd never seen before didn't raise any questions, they just didn't ask any.

They were all surprised that they had never seen any of these parts of the Watchtower before. Perhaps they just never had the need to go down here? Probably, considering Flash was usually either at work, home, or his other work. And by 'other work', I mean his Flash business, not something super creepy Barry Allen does on the side. Green Arrow is usually either acting his part as a playboy billionaire, or being Green Arrow. While Green Lantern is either protecting the universe, or just being Hal Jordan.

While Batman... Well, Batman's Batman. You can't really change that. He's also Bruce Wayne sometime too though, and recently the entire league just figured out how much of a father he is too. But that doesn't matter right now, because right now they needed to make sure that the father part of the bat wouldn't disappear.

Without realizing it at first, the bat had stopped, and Flash nearly crashed into him.

"Wha-..." Flash said a little startled by the abrupt stop. Batman faced the group of heroes.

"You all have, most likely, never been to this part of the Watchtower." They all gave little gestures of 'yes'. "While the Watchtower was being designed, I added this area as a sort of makeshift version of the batcave, incase I couldn't get into the cave or I needed more certain equipment than I have down there, like now." Batman then swiftly turned and lead them all into the new room. It was just like Batman said, it was pretty much a makeshift version of the batcave in the Watchtower, just a little less... cave like. But there was considerably a lot more advanced tech, most likely because the bat couldn't fit all of this down in the cave. The heroes took a moment to marvel at the room around them, then they looked to the bat for what they were supposed to do now that they were here.

"This area has much more advanced analyzing systems, and at first I didn't think we'd need it, but now I know we do." They nodded, and Batman walked over to the bigger version of the batcomputer. He took from his belt 3 different test tubes, one had blood in it, one had most likely spinal fluid, and the other had a different fluid they didn't want to think about just yet. Batman then typed something on the computer and brought up a brainwave chart, it was still active, and labeled "Robin".

"Green Arrow, you're going to be observing Robin's brainwaves, looking for any abnormalities, and checking to make sure everything is stable for now." Green Arrow nodded curtly, and Batman held up the three vials. "Flash, you're going to run extensive tests on all of these." Flash nodded, and took the vials from the bat. "Green Lantern, I need you to keep run on all of the tech, make sure everything is in perfect working order all while waiting for any updates from me." Hal nodded, that only left Martian Manhunter left. "J'onn, come with me." Batman then swept past them, and J'onn followed.

Flash immediately got to testing, and Green Arrow took a seat watching the brainwaves. While Green Lantern began checking the instruments and tech all around them. None said a word, because right now they all had to be immensely focused on what they're final goal is.

Save Robin.


"Has Scarecrow been taken back to Arkham yet?" Artemis questioned as her and the rest of the team followed Kid Flash through the mountain towards the bio-ship.

"Most likely. That's why we're going to Arkham now, Superman probably dropped him off there, so all we need to do is get a room to talk to Scarecrow once there." They nodded, not questioning Kid's leadership. Because right now, he was what they needed to save Robin.

"What're we gonna do once we get to talk to him anyway?" Artemis asked, she just really needed to know how this situation was going to play out, hoping that she'd get to hit the bastard.

"Both you and Kaldur will be interrogating Scarecrow," he stated plainly. Agreeing, Artemis got ready for what was coming, as did Kaldur.

Now at the bio-ship, they filed in with M'gann leading the way. She sat down at the pilot's chair, and closed up the front. Once they were all seated, she morphed their seat belts on, getting ready to head out towards Gotham. She raised the ship, and had the main doors open for her, gliding into the sky now camouflaged.

"Do you think that the league will be mad at us for this?" M'gann asked the rest. Kid Flashed just nodded,

"Yep. But that doesn't matter anymore, all we need to do is what we're supposed to do." No more questions asked. But a silent ride would only increase tensions. There was nothing more to say however, so the ride continued this way. Reaching Gotham however raised a few questions.

"Why is it so dark here?" M'gann asked the team in general. Artemis shifted at the question, and Kaldur looked out the side curiously with Superboy. Kid looked up and answered her innocent question,

"Mostly smog. But it's almost five anyway, so it's not that unusual."

"Right." M'gann nodded understandingly, she then asked, "Where should I land her?"

"Anywhere near Arkham, but not too close to the inner workings of the city, stick to the outer bearings." Accepting the order - which it was - M'gann directed the bio-ship to a point that wasn't exactly close to Arkham, but was away from the inner workings of Gotham. Descending, and landing, heading out, and heading for Arkham was now their next list of things to do.

Done, done and done.

"Follow me, I know a good way to get to Arkham without attracting too much unwanted attention," Kid said like a chief of command.

"Right," they all replied almost simultaneously, causing Wally to chuckle; he felt like a real leader now.

"Oh, and Artemis," she looked up ready to take order from Kid, "keep to the back. You live in Gotham, you know what it's like." She nodded, and let the rest file in front of her, keeping watch at the rear. You never know what you're going to get with Gotham.

Kid Flash managed to weave them through back alley ways, and different intertwining buildings that made the whole city look like the architects were high on drugs designing it. The different confusing non-patterns could make you go mad, no wonder why this city's so crazy. But Kid got them through it just fine, with help of Artemis at the rear keeping an eye out. Then they saw it.

Arkham Asylum.

Scared the hell out of them for a moment there. You can hear the screams, and see the blood. This building comes straight out of horror and nightmares about insanity. Kid turned and faced the team.

"Kaldur, you and Artemis go in first, keep your leadership oras up." Kaldur nodded. "Superboy, you keep back and look out." He nodded. "And M'gann, be prepared to use your powers on both Scarecrow and anyone else," she nodded, "hook us up then." She set the mind link, and they headed in, looking as confident as ever; when really they were scared for their lives around this area of Gotham.

The screams were as loud as possible once inside the asylum. The guards looked up at the claude kid heros, and one officer scoffed a bit. They went to the desk, and Kaldur put his 'I'm-in-charge' face on.

"We need to speak to the villain known as Scarecrow, aka Jonathan Crane, alone in an interrogation room." The woman at the desk took a long drag on her cigarette, and blew out the smoke in Kaldur's face. She then rolled her eyes and put out the bud, and began typing into the clunky DEL computer at her desk.

"Yah, we got 'em here," she sucked in some air and continued, "I could probably get you an empty room with 'da crazy," Kaldur's face lifted slightly, "probably." Then it fell.

"So, can you?" He asked more reluctantly now.

"Lemme check." She took out another cigarette and lit it with a click of a black lighter that was sitting on the desk. She took another long drag, and kept it between her fingers, letting her fake red nails click the keys on the computer. She looked at the screen with much thought, then spoke again. "Yeah... we got nothin' kid." Kaldur's demeanor visibly darkened at this. Kid then nudged the atlantean out of the way, and pulled a twenty out of one of the folds in his suit. Flicking it over to the yellow toothed woman, she flashed her teeth.

"Well, look at that! We got an opening." She then handed them a slip of paper that would allow them to get by the guards, that had the number of the interrogation room. She then took her pen and pushed the button on the intercom, telling the guards to get Jonathan Crane out of his cell and to room 1339, restrained of course.

This is going to be very interesting.


Well there you go.

Hope that this was satisfactory.

Review please!
