Okay, I know it's been a while to update, but in my defense I didn't get very many reviews.

And by the way, did everyone see the new episode of invasion yesterday? I hate to say it but I didn't like it. I was just getting my head wrapped around the last season's time period, let alone five years into the future!

I really hope the whole season's not like that, but something tells me it's going to be. I have a hunch and it makes me sad.

However, I did really like the appearance of Nightwing and Batgirl. They almost make up for it. And Tim Drake as Robin? He is my second favorite. Right behind Dick Grayson of course.

I always seem to ramble don't I? Anyway, please review. Thanks if you did review, I appreciate it :) Your comments make me smile.

And, as always, I do not own any of the characters in this story. It belongs to DC and Warner Bros. blah blah blah.

"Dude, you should have seen the look on her face!" Robin exclaimed to Wally as they rummaged through the kitchen. "She was like, 'You murderer!' It was priceless!" he immitated Ivy's angered voice.

"What's going on?" M'gann asked, confused as she walked in the kitchen, opened the oven, and pulled out some burnt cookies. However, before she could place the tray on the counter, they were gone and Wally was talking with his mouth full. Again.

"Rob was just telling me how he kicked Poison Ivy's ass the other day." He mumbled through the half chewed up cookies.

"Oh." M'gann said, losing interest and slightly disgusted at Wally's food. She walked over to Conner, who was staring at the blank television screen.

"Robin." The thirteen year old whipped around, half a burrito hanging out his mouth, to see a dark cowl staring at him. "Don't gloat."

Robin nodded. "Sorry, Batman." Everyone was quiet for a moment, before Robin's signature smirk reappeared on his face. "Shouldn't we be going? You don't want to be late." Batman almost lost his cool, and Robin saw his frustration written all over his face. Although no one else would be able to.

"Late for what?" Artemis asked, her arms crossed. Batman swiftly turned and walked out of the room, sweeping his cape behind him.

"Batman's got a date." Robin wiggled his eye brows toward the door where his mentor had vanished, and quickly cackled.

"Robin!" Batman yelled from the other room. Robin's face quickly faded into a different expression.

"Shit. I'm so going to get it." He said, strolling out the door. "Later guys. If I'm not on probation."

Meanwhile:

The dimly lit road was empty as the green-skinned woman strolled down it, searching for the right house. Finally, she found it.

"1785 North Rosewood Boulevard." She said, crouching in the bushes outside the house. It was a large house, obviously belonging to one of Gotham's finest. It was painted white, and had pampered roses along the front yard.

A large glass window showed a small family, a mother, father, and a boy, sitting in front of a television. But Ivy was more interested in what was happening on the top floor. She grew a small tree and, perched in the top, spied on this girl.

The girl lay on the floor, watching the news, where a blonde reporter was speaking. Images of Batman and Robin escaping her death trap flashed across the screen. Batman then stood walking away from the reporter while Robin smiled at the camera before hastily following.

As the report ended, the girl switched the television off. She looked to her wall, Poison Ivy's eyes followed her. She pressed her fingers to small slips of paper she had hung all over the wall. On closer examination, she saw they were pictures of Robin. Some had Batman, with large X's across his face.

Poison Ivy smirked. She would be perefct.

Later:

A big, deep red, double door opend wide, alloweing light to dance across the lawn from where it spilled out of the house. A dark figure stepped out of the light slightly, revealing a girl with blonde pig-tails holding a garbage bag. She closed the door behind her and boredly carried the bag to the curb where a garbage bin was located.

Suddenly, she had collapsed on the ground. She hadn't even seen the vines curl their way around her ankles until they tightened and began pulling her towards the shadows. A scream began to bubble out her throat but was cut off by a fragile finger pressing against her lips.

"Shhh." She heard a woman's voice say from behind her. Poison Ivy stepped slightly into the dim light, revealing herself to the young girl. "What's your name, honey?"

"J-J-J-Jessica. What do you want with me?" the girl stuttered. She had seen that face before. News reports, stories, articles; they all had mentioned her at least once. She was a villain. Not just any villain; a Dynamic Duo villain. Her heart stopped as soon as she saw her face.

Poison Ivy laughed quietly. "Don't be scared Jessie- can I call you Jessie? I simply have an offer I think you'll be very interested in."

Jessica's curiosity got the best of her. She was dying to know what a villain like Poison Ivy wanted with a spoiled rich brat like her. "I'm listening."

"Well, I have this… Problem." She began. "You see, I have a hero and a sidekick. Well as you can clearly see, there is only one of me. I can't possibly deal with them both."

"So what are you saying?" Jessica asked, growing impatient.

"I'm saying, if you help me with this little dilemma, I'll give you Robin, the Boy Wonder." It took all of Ivy's strength not to say blunder. "All you really have to do is-"

"DEAL!" Jessica shouted. She began jumping rapidly around, her pig-tails swinging violently around her head. Poison Ivy smiled wickedly, sending the girl back to her home. She had her sidekick.

One Week Later:

"Batman," Robin whined. "Are you sure this is where she's hiding?" he had grown bored in the six and a half hours they'd been waiting. Waiting for Poison Ivy to arrive, leave, or anything. For all he knew, they could've been waiting for a giant bird to come and sweep them away to fairyland. And, knowing Gotham, that was totally possible.

"Yes." The Dark Knight replied, his voice slightly aggitated.

"You know it's Tuesday?"

"Mhm."

"And I've got school tomorrow?"

"Mhm."

"And it's 3 in the morning?"

"Mhm."

This is truly agonizing. Robin thought. He could tell Batman, though his facial expression hadn't changed, was growing more and more annoyed with his protégé. He always hated when Robin got like this. After staring up at his mentor for moments on end, the Dark Knight finally sighed.

"Fine. Go home and get some-" his sentence was cut off by the sound of crushing glass. Both eyes darted down, as the windows of the abandoned warehouse they'd been watching were kicked out by giant plants.

"I can't go home now, Batman! Are you crazy?" Robin yelled sarcasticly as he jumped of the rooftop. Batman rolled his eyes under the cowl, quickly following his oh-so-eager protégé.

Upon entering, Robin stopped dead in his tracks, shocked at the unbelieveable sight that stood before him. Sure enough, Poison Ivy had been there. However, she had not been alone. A girl, looking maybe a year older than him, stood next to her.

She had blonde hair, that fell gracefully down to right above her breasts. She wore a vine laced dress that Robin couldn't help but notice outlined every curve of her petite body. She had sparkling green eyes and a smile wider than the Joker's. Robin couldn't help but stare.

When her eyes rested on Robin, they grew nearly twice in size, hungrily drinking him in. He stared dumbly at her, but he was still perfect in her eyes. Ivy was surprised she didn't begin frantically jumping around when he entered.

An amused smirk played at the woman's lips as she watched the two teens stare at each other. Hormonal idiots. She thought. This was going better than expected.

Robin's eyes subconciously found themselves wandering up and down her body. But he shook his head, refocusing his thoughts. The huge grin on her face told Robin she wasn't evil, at least.

"Who is that?" Robin asked, frozen in shock.

"I figured if the big, bad Batman had a sidekick, why can't I?" Ivy said, much to Robin's distress. He was NOT a sidekick. "This is Venus Fly Trap,but you can call her Venus."

"Is she obsessed with plants like you? Or is she what the call," Robin paused for dramatic effect. "Normal?" he put finger quotations around the word, practically choking on his own sarcasm.

"She had her own obsession, bird boy." Ivy growled. "Now, you two kids run along and play nice. The grown-ups have business." The wicked smile returned to her face. Suddenly vines shot out and picked up Batman, carrying him to the next room with Ivy. Robin tried to follow, but suddenly 'Venus' was in front of him.

Her big emerald eyes stared up at him, admiring him. Her stare almost creeped him out, but he'd been at this job for a long time. Not much creeped him out anymore.

"Look, I don't know what Ivy promised you," Robin began. "But is it really worth all the jail time she can get you? So just leave before you get pegged as a criminal." He tried to nudge his way past her.

As he walked around, she surprised him with a sweep, knocking him off his feet. "I;m not in it for the jail time." She grinned.

Robin staggered to his feet, preparing to fight. He had expected the girl to just leave when she had the chance, but nothing is every that easy. "Fine," he said laughing.

The girl ran at him, her eyes crazy and her hands outstretched. Before she could grab him, he leapt over her sprinting form. He let loose his signature cackle before jumping off her shoulders into the shadowy raftors.

"Come on, Robin!" she called, her voice sad. A normal villain would have a gun. Or a knife. A normal villain would've gone after him. Why didn't she? "I don't want to hurt you!"

He couldn't help but laugh again. "I doubt I'll be the one getting hurt!" he said. Before he knew it however, vines were wrapped around his legs, yanking him off of his perch. How did Venus have Ivy's powers?

He now hung upside down, in front of Venus. The look on her face wasn't evil, like countless other villains who had captured Robin. She expressed happiness, as though she'd just won a board game or something.

She just stood there, for a moment, staring at him. As if he was a beautiful painting and she couldn't help but admire him. Her eyes grew until they looking like giant green saucers. Her mouth gaped open in a huge grin.

"Okay. You got me. Now what?" Robin asked, his voice bored as he released a yawn. "Are you going to kill me, or return me to your master, or release me into the wild?" a small smirk played at his lips as his own sarcasm nearly got the better of him.

A look of confusion crossed the girl's face. What would she do now? She hadn't thought that far ahead. As she pondered the boy's words, she failed to notice as he began to wiggle free. Suddenly, vines were scattered all over the floor around a crouching Boy Wonder.

"Robin!" the girl shouted, sorrow lacing her tone. Then her features changed completely. "You are so… Stubbon." She said, her voice low and seductive.

"Sorry," he said sarcastically as he stood up. "Next time someone tries to capture me I'll try to be more flexible." He smirked and cackled at his own joke. The girl's own face lit up.

"So, in all honesty, what did Ivy promise you?" he asked, noticing her smile growing wider. She sat down on the concrete, completely relaxed.

That was her first mistake. Now all he had to do was wait for the perfect moment. Relaxing slightly, only slightly, he leaned against the concrete wall.

"Oh, nothing." She said, trying to conceal her excitement. She failed. Horribly.

"No, I'm honestly curious." He said. He was talking to her not like she was a criminal, but like she was his friend. Trying to relax her so he could take her in without a struggle.

"Well hold in your curiosity, Robin." The newest, bitter voice in the conversation startled Robin. He turned around and saw Batman, holding Poison Ivy's hands behind her back. A growl formed on her face, and a frown formed on Batman's.

"I thought I taught you better." He said. The white slits in his cowl narrowed, showing anger in his protégé.

"I…I…" he stuttered. He wanted to defend himself, explain his plan, but he couldn't find the words. "Sorry." He muttered, hanging his head in shame.

He looked at Ivy, trying to see how furious she was with Venus. However, the plant girl looked rather pleased. Shocked, he glanced at Venus.

Anger was literally pulsing through the teenager. She glared at Batman, her once sparkling green eyes had turned into poisonous daggers, aimed at Batman's throat. She clenched her fist and her jaw tightened.

"Don't yell at him!" she shouted, expecting the fury in her voice to intimidate the indifferent superhero. However, his cold demeanor only angered her more.

"Robin, take care of her." He growled, leading Ivy out in front of him. She screamed, anger radiating off of her vine-covered body. She willed plants to attack him, and had he been prepared, he would've easily dodged. But the vines almost instantly knocked him unconcious.

As he crumpled to the ground, Ivy began laughing. Tobin stared in pure horror at his mentor. Poison Ivy stood and slowly walked over to the boy. His body tensed as she neared him, but he did not move. She placed her hands on his shoulders from behind.

"Surprised, Boy Wonder?" She whispered in his ear. "Venus, good work. Take care of Batman." Ivy said, willing vines around Robin's body. However, he jumped out of them, landing less than gracefully next to his mentor.

"Robin!" he heard that shriek behind him, as Venus cried out in an aggitated voice that he had done wrong. But he didn't care. His mentor was down. Every instinct in his body told him to save Batman, and get out.

But just as suddenly as any of this had happened, Robin becam entangled in vines. He now hung limply in the vine's grips. He watched, helplessly as they threw Batman's wakeing up body to the wall, knocking him out again. He began thrashing against the vines that entangled him.

"Batman!" he screamed. He pushed fruitlessly against the plants, only so they would tighten and make him light-headed. "BATMAN!" he screamed even louder, his words drowning in his own depseration. He continued to scream his mentor's name, praying it would somehow wake him up.

Poison Ivy suddenly appeared in front of Robin, playing with his ebony hair and tugging slightly at his mask. A deep, furious growl escaped his throat. She stopped directly in front of him, and allowed the vines to part slightly just above his forearm.

She injected a light pink liquid into his veins. He felt the drug leaking it's way into his blood stream, darkness peaked over the edges of his vision. His whole body went numb, and he could no longer struggle or scream. His head slumped back against the vines, limp and nearly unconcious.

Just before the darkness completely enveloped him, he felt he vines gently lay his body on the floor. He wearily looked up into green eyes, staring down at him.

"Don't worry. You'll be safe with me." She said. Although he couldn't hear her. He had slipped into a deep unconciousness.

Cliff hangers. Reader's hate them. I love them :D I just love it. It makes me feel like you're all going to come back and read the rest!
