Duckburg Hospital:

In a hospital where the owner is a dog, and most of the employers are ducks, even having patients resembling a rhinoceros or a warthog are unusual. Generally, their patients are what humans would consider of the domesticated type, not something you'd find in the wild. Still, the two had bulletwounds, so they needed help. Little did they know who or what they kept alive. Nor did they know what to do if and when they woke up.

The rhinoceros slowly opened his eyes. Although he didn't know the room he was in, anyone would easily recognize a hospital room when they saw one. He felt pain all over his body, but certain experiences he had back in New York had seen to it that he can take physical pain very well, even if it were as severe as bullet wounds. He got up as best as he could. Once he was up, he could see the bed next to him, where he found his patner in crime, the warthog.

"Bebop!" he called at him, but the warthog, Bebop, didn't respond, "Aw come on. You don't remember your ol' buddy Rocksteady?"

Since Bebop still wouldn't reply, the rhinoceros, Rocksteady, decided to just pick him up and carry him out of the hospital. Just as he picked him up, one of the nurses entered. She was shocked to see him trying to get out, but being as caring as she is, she tried to talk him out of it.

"I'm sorry sir, but he needs to rest." she said, "And so do..."

She couldn't finish, as that's when Rocksteady charged at her, crushing her. Despite his strength, this merely caused the nurse to be flattened against a wall like a pancake, but the blinking of her eyes showed that she was still alive.

"A stupid duck like you won't stop me." Rocksteady spoke.

He left the room and ran through the corridor, disregarding everyone who stood in his way.

Outside the hospital, unknown to Rocksteady, people were waiting for him. Surveillance camera's were under L's control, Potter was watching while wearing his invisibility cloack, Katie was reading a newspaper and inconspicuously watching over it, Keiko was using a phone booth, and the Green Lantern... nobody trully knew, as he said he'd be walking around without his suit and mask, so nobody, not even his teammates, would recognize him. So they were there when Rocksteady, carrying Bebop on his back, stormed out of the hospital and ran away as fast as he could.

L and his companions could see this through the surveillance camera's.

"He knew he wouldn't stick out, much, in this city, yet he doesn't know how to be subtle." Mello remarked.

"In panic, even a smarter person is more prone to make mistakes." Near said, "After all, it's been three days since they haven't seen their boss."

Back on the field, Potter could use his invisibility cloack to his advantage to run after Bebop and Rocksteady, without anyone noticing. Or so he thought, as he kept bumping in on people on the way, which raised too many eyebrows. Katie didn't have that problem, but since she has the strength of a demon, her bumping in on people didn't have the same effect as when Potter does it, making it even more difficult for even Keiko to run through the streets.

Rocksteady kept running, still completely disregarding his surroundings. His thought was that, since the city was filled with humanoid animals such as himself, him doing the things he does wouldn't raise many questions. At least, not as much as it would if it happened in any other city. Also, since he had a friend that wouldn't wake up, he couldn't act a little more subtle if he wanted to. So he kept running. Until something landed in his path, raised its fist towards him, and before he even hit the fist, he already fell. It was as though some kind of force came from the fist that stopped him. Once he was down, he recognized who stopped him.

"You're friend was shot in the head, and you would take him out of the hospital?" the Green Lantern spoke, "How is that supposed to help him?"

"You don't understand." Rocksteady replied, "We were supposed to return to our boss after our deal. You don't know what he'd do to us if we don't return."

"You've been gone for three days and he hasn't made a move." the Green Lantern told them.

"We have?" Rocksteady didn't know that.

"Looks like your boss thinks you're expendable." the Green Lantern told him, "You really want to work for someone like that?"

"Now that you're saying that, I wonder if he was even planning to pay us." Rocksteady replied, "But... if we don't get paid, how's Bebop supposed to..."

"I know somebody who can finance your friend's recovery." the Green Lantern told him.

This surprised Rocksteady, but the Green Lantern wasn't finished: "Just tell me where we can find your boss, and I'm sure he'll do exactly that for you.

Feeling somewhat betrayed, Rocksteady told the Green Lantern what he wanted to hear: "It's a place called... Fort Boggart, or something. It used to be a prison, somewhere in some European sea."

This made little sense to the Green Lantern, but if he relayed this information to L, he'd find out more soon enough.
