Ch 2
--
The two men that got away were quickly rounded up, by the police that gathered outside.
They were instantly whisked away to the teleportation bay. Where the medics instantly took Speedy to the closest medical room.
" So, how is he!"
Arrow was furious. He and Speedy had been at odds for a while, granted it wasn't as bad as Batman and bird-boy, but he had always considered Speedy to be his son.
" He'll pull through, but that drug is in his systems. We wont know anything more until he wakes up."
The medic walked out of the room, leaving Arrow in a stupor. Canary waited outside the door. She had gotten to know speedy well over the last few months and they were very close. She knew this must have been affecting Arrow. Right now he needed his space.
10 minutes later bumblebee received the call.
"Arrow, what's up? I haven't heard from you since speedy joined the league. Is everything okay?"
She saw the concerned look on his face as he replied.
" Speedy's in some trouble. We were doing a drug bust and they sprayed him with something. Elongated man is looking into it with Flash, but all we know now is that its really powerful stuff.
He's asleep now but woke up 4 minutes ago and looked like he was having a panic attack. They gave him something to calm him down but it only lasts for a few minutes. It was all we could do to restrain him."
Bumblebee looked worried as the rest of Titans East walked to the monitor.
" Is he going to be okay?"
Aqualad asked. Speedy was like his brother.
This was something no family member wanted to hear. Even when Speedy had joined the league he still stayed inn the tower more often than not.
"J'onn gave him an emergency scan and his vitals are okay, but we can't keep him here like this. There isn't enough medical staff trained for rehab. Besides I know you guys would really be the only ones who might be able to keep him calm enough to get him through this." Arrow sighed heavily.
"Please we really need your help."
"You didn't even have to ask! OF COUSE WEE'LL HELP!" Cried bumblebee.
"He's family!" "He's a titan!" Replied the two English-speaking titans. Más y Menos said something along those lines, but even after three years in titans east they still spoke very little English.
" Thank you. You should probably tell Titans Central too. Have Cyborg whip up a containment room. Speedy's good with electronics, so it'll have to bee tough."
He smiled in a way that they recognized as that of a worried father.
" Thank you. I'll call back tomorrow."
The room fell silent as the monitor switched off.
