Well, I'm happy I started writing this after I posted chapter 41. I am thinking of writing another story, and I need help for that one. So anybody that is up for helping me, I will gladly accept all your advice. Just PM me and I'll tell you what I would like to write. I really need help for this one.

Warnings: Again, mentions of violence, some language, maybe sadness. Enjoy~

An hour had already passed since Red Hood and his group had arrived at the cave, and nerves were getting the best out of everyone. Wally and Artemis had gone back to arguing, Conner and M'gann were off to the side, having a mental argument, but both of them looked pretty pissed off, and Zatanna was pacing back and forth while trying to not to do what she usually did under stress. She really didn't think that cooking would help the search for the girl that seemed to bring nothing but trouble to the League.

Kaldur and Jason stood to the side, not wanting to get in between a verbal fight between Wally and Artemis, but not daring to leave them alone. As the ginger and blonde yelled at one another about who was at fault for everything that had been going on, Jason couldn't help but want to bash his head against the wall. As the yells filled the mountain, Jason decided that giving himself a concussion wouldn't help and opted to sigh. The soldiers had done the smart thing and left to go back to their civilian lives, all them having to go back to someone. Justin had to go back to his boss, Greg to his already worried manager, Ollie to Dinah, and Lee to someone. He hadn't explained who it was before leaving.

"Lucky bastards…" Jason whispered under his breath as he leaned against the wall, hoping that the argument would stop sooner rather than later. He was starting to get a headache.

"This is all your fault, Baywatch!" Artemis yelled, already red faced.

"It isn't my fault, you idiot!" Wally yelled back, his face just as red as his hair.

"Oh, really?! So it isn't your fault Dany ran away?! Or that the fiasco happened at the first Games?! Or that some of the League were kidnapped?!" She yelled, so full of rage she didn't see Wally pale at her cruel words. "Maybe if you weren't such an idiot, none of this would have happened!" She finished, glaring him, then turned around and stomped away.

The three males stared after her in surprise, Wally more than the others.

"Useless!" Artemis yelled from far away, then slammed a door.

Everything was quiet; the atmosphere thick; while her words sunk in, then Kaldur turned to Wally, who was visibly shaking.

"Wally, you know that is not true." Kaldur said, already knowing how his friend would most probably react.

The teen didn't react to his words for a while, then shook his head slowly. "You know that's a lie, Kaldur. She's right." Wally whispered.

Jason looked at him shocked, then shook his head. "Wally, she was mad and needed someone to blame. Bitch like her can't accept the fact that sometimes shit happens. You're anything but useless, Wally."

Wally shook his head and turned to them, eyes filled with unshed tears. "It's all my fault." He whispered, chocked up. He didn't want to cry in front of them, yet he was ready to let the flood gates open. "I'll- I'll be in my room." He whispered, then sped out of the room, over to his own.

Jason wanted to go after him, but a hand on his bicep stopped him. He looked back at Kaldur, only to see the younger man shake his head. Jason frowned, but decided the Atlantean was right. Wally just needed some time to cool down.

Wally had already been gone for an hour, and Jason was getting woried. No matter what, the speedster never failed to piss him off hourly, it was just something he did. So, Jason decided it couldn't hurt to check on the boy. When he knocked on Wally's door, there was no answer, but Jason just thought it was because the boy was ignoring him.

So, he did the most normal thing for him. He opened the door forcefully, kicking it down, not caring about the fact that this was a place that was frequently used by heroes, and stepped into the surprisingly dark room. He looked around, trying to find the bright red hair he always recognized Wally by, but didn't find anything. The room was completely bare, with nothing on the walls, floor, or bed, making it look as if no one had ever lived in.

That made flags start flashing in Jason's head. Wally was not the kind to be organized, or secretive, and this room was nothing like the Wally's room at the Siegel residence. So, Jason started looking around, inside the desk and drawers, only to find absolutely nothing.

"What the hell?" Jason whispered, then something on the bed caught his eye. It was a white sheet of paper, folded up and tucked under the covers so not everyone could see. He walked over to it, and opened it, wondering what could be inside. There was rushed and sloppy handwriting, Wally's without a doubt. Jason's heart dropped, already having an idea of what could be the contents.

'Dear whoever found this,

Danny's gone. Kidnapped by the Joker, and it's all my fault. I couldn't do anything to save her. I'm just what you're all thinking... Useless. Some of you may say that I'm not, but that's a lie. You are all thinking so. All of this is my fault. Dany running away the first time, the craziness at the Games... It's all true. I've been nothing but trouble since I was born, I mean, it was my fault that Dany was put up for adoption! That already shows I'm nothing but trouble!

I'm writing this for goodbye, but whoever it is that is reading this, please do not show it to anyone else. Keep this to yourself. Do not show the League, or my uncle, my family, your family... Whoever it is you want to show it to, please don't. That is what I ask of you, but I will ask more. Continue reading if you are willing to help me. If you aren't, let it go and let someone else find it."

Jason gripped the paper tightly as he felt his rage slowly grow, all because of how Wally depicted himself. Lies. All of this was filled with lies! But he continued reading.

"Now, I wish for you to tell Angy how much I love her. I love her so much it hurts me to write this. It hurts me just to think of leaving her, it makes my chest constrict and tears fill my eyes, but I have to do this. I love her more than there are stars in the sky. I love her more than I eat. Tell her she's all I think about, and all I will ever think about. Tell her she's my sun, moon, sky, earth, everything. I value her life over my own, and I'd do anything to see her one more time, but I can't. I must go."

Jason ground his teeth together as he though of how Angy would react. She would most probably cry her eyes out. First her best friend, now her boyfriend. Why did Wally have to do this?

"Next, tell Roy how much of a brother he is. Explain to him that I had to leave, but don't tell him how you know. I don't know, run away or ignore him, but don't let him find out. Tell him how if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have survived so far, and that he'll always have a part of me with him."

How would Roy react to this? He had known Wally for the most, and they were practically brothers. He would be pissed off, that's for sure. And he would try to get information out of Jason. He was still mad at him for having kept hidden that he was his best friend, Robin. He would be shattered if he kept the information from him.

"Tell Kal and Conner they're the best friends I could have ever asked for. They were there for me when my so called 'Team' wasn't, and that's all I could ask from them. Tell them I am sorry for leaving them, but also tell explain why I had to leave. I'm worthless, they don't deserve to worry over me."

Those two had become Wally's brothers in the short time they were all together. They understood him and didn't judge. What would they do?

"Tell Deshee and Raquel they're the best friends I could have asked for. I know it's the same I told you to tell Kaldur and Conner, but I think of Raq and Dee as the same thing. They helped me through so much. They helped me see just how good life can be without having to worry about other people. They taught me to not care. Sadly, I have not learned that lesson as much as the others."

Jason felt angry tears prick at his eyes at Wally's words. Where would this lead? What is Wally going to do?

"Tell Benny and Virginia they were the best parents I ever had, even if they were only my parents for three months. They helped me through so much, and I had so much fun with them. Tell them I am grateful and I will always love them, and tell them I am sorry for doing this."

How would the adults react to this? They don't have Dany, and no one knows if they'll get her back, but now they have to lose Wally? This would break them.

"Now here comes the really hard part. My hand's getting shaky too. Tell my aunt and uncle I love them. Tell them that it's with them that I ever truly felt as if I had a place in the world, and tell them this is for the better. They might not believe this, but I've screwed up enough. They don't deserve to be so disappointed by their nephew. And I don't want to see the looks. God, I'm so selfish.

Tell Greg that I think of him more as my father than my real one. He literally was the only one there when I needed someone the most, and that it's because of him I've come so far. He deserves so much more than what the world has given him, yet he manages to push through until he finds what he's looking for. I wish I could be like him. I wish I could be that strong."

Greg. He had only known the man for the few hours Dany was with them after the games, and Wally seemed to gravitate around him. It was as if having Greg around finally completed the boy. And from what he had seen, Greg seemed complete with Wally around. Dany and Wally had explained to Jason that Greg had lost his only son because of Benny, but from what he could see, the post of son had been filled by Wally. This could also break Greg.

"Tell Dany that I love her. Tell her that if wasn't for her I wouldn't have gotten through so many things. Because of her, yes, my life may have fallen apart, but everything became so much clearer. She brought so much happiness to my dull life, it was almost overwhelming. She brings out the best and worst out of everyone, and Roy, Jason, and my parents are witnesses. Because of her," The handwriting started getting even shakier now. "I had so much heartache, I was almost smothered. I received so much love; I learned to let people into my heart. To really let them in. She is the best thing that ever happened to almost all of us, and now she's in the hands of a psycho. Maybe she would say that it wasn't my fault, but in the end, I was the one that yelled at Mary and made Dany leave. In the end, it is my entire fault."

The tears fell freely now. What Wally said was true. Dany basically radiated happiness, sometimes it was annoying, but at others… It was just what kids like them needed. Because that's what he was. Jason wasn't going to lie anymore. He still was that fifteen year old, being hit continuously with a crowbar, hoping that his father would arrive.

"I think that's about everyone I want to write to. I don't want the team to know. I don't want my parents to know. I don't want the League, or the rogues, nobody else to know. But, there is one more I need you to tell something to.

Tell Jason he's always been my birdbrained brother. He may have died, but I had always known he was there. Maybe I was just crazy, but I know that Jason is Robin. I don't know for sure, but the Red Hood has too much animosity towards the Bats to not know them personally. The second Robin is the only one that actually fits the puzzle.

Tell Jason that I love him. He may act as if he doesn't care about what would happen to us, but I know. He has that same look a father has whenever his child falls every single time something happens to us. He has protectiveness over all of us, and it was shown when we were kidnapped by Donovich. He's just as much my big brother as Roy is; which is kind of funny 'cause if it's really Jason Todd, we would be the ginger trio; and as much my best friend as James or Hartley are… were… Don't tell him where you got this, let him figure it out. Because if he really is a Bat, he will find this letter.

So, Jason, when you find this, remember me for all the good things. And please, stop being so uptight on ignoring Bruce and Dick and Tim. Those three still love you, don't push them away. Look what doing exactly that did to me. And, I want you to know, don't look for me. 'Cause I'll already be gone by the time you find this.

~Love, Wallace West."

Tears of both anger and sadness escaped his eyes without his permission, making Jason curse himself for showing emotions. What would Wally do? Did he mean suicide? So soon? No, he couldn't possibly mean that. He wrote this to someone else. He didn't think Jason would find it so soon. So, that must mean that he wasn't going to kill himself. Was he?

"Jason!" Someone yelled from the door, making Jason actually jump.

Once he was finally calmed down a little, he shoved the paper into his pocket and turned around, glaring at the first Robin, who was smirking at Jason's show.

"Wow, the great Red Hood, scared at little old me!" He exclaimed, making a show of him looking innocent.

Jason glared at him, getting more pissed off by the second. How dare this bastard sneak up on him while he was worrying over Wally, and make fun of him? "What the fuck do you want, Grayson?" He growled.

Seeing the worried face his younger brother carried, Dick decided he should leave the teasing for later. He did have more important news.

"We're getting a transmission from the Joker." Dick said, voice serious.

Jason's eyes widened a little, then he bolted out of the room, almost trampling Dick if the man hadn't gotten out of the way. As he neared the computer room, he put on his domino mask, knowing that it wouldn't be smart if the Joker found him, even if seeing his eyes might help Dany. Inside the room, Batman was frowning at the computer, while the white face of the Joker smiled back at him.

The staring contest ended when the Joker noticed him, making him smile even wider. Right then and there Jason swore this bastard was going to end up with more than a few broken bones.

"Impostor! How are you?" Joker asked, faking curiousity.

Wasn't it ironic? He called Tim by replacement and the Joker now called him an impostor. Maybe what goes around really comes around.

"Cut the crap, you psycho. Where's Carmen?" He growled, giving the clown his best bat glare.

The Joker cackled evilly, then moved to the side, letting the camera show a tied up figure on the floor, barely moving. Upon further inspection, both Bats saw it was Dany.

"What have you done to her?" Jason asked, coming off more sentimental than what he wanted.

The Joker moved towards Dany, who's eyes widened, and started trying to get away, moving her handcuffed hands in a vain attempt to escape.

"I had the some fun I had with a little birdy some time ago. It's been so long since I've been able to use a crowbar," He spoke, sounding nostalgic, while a crowbar appeared from inside his shirt sleeve.

Jason's eyes widened, knowing what he was going to do. No, this couldn't be happening. Not again. Not with her. Not with Dany.

"On someone so strong. I mean, she's let fly a few words that the Bat wouldn't be pleased with," The Joker continued, not seeming to care about the glares he was recieving. "But I'm not surprised. Look at who her mentor is." He said in a dark tone, turning to the screen to somewhat glare at Jason.

Then, without warning, he raised the crowbar and flung it down, making it connect to Danny's side. She wasn't prepared for this hit, so she screamed out in pain, then slowly panted as the fire started once more in her side. As the Joker smiled at the Bats, she ground out, "Fuck you..."

"The time's ticking, Batsy! If you want to save this one, you better hurry!" He said, then the transmission cut off, without a warning.

Jason stared at the screen, seeming to now know what Batman passed through five years ago with himself. Batman slowly turned to Jason, not knowing how his son would react. What he saw made him look twice. Tears were falling, and Jason was slowly letting himself succumb to his sobs. How could someone do this? To a child, no less!

"We'll find him, Jason." Batman said, placing a hand on Jason's shoulder. But even he didn't know for sure. Was he up to the task? Or would he fail like last time?

So, please, PM me if you would like to help me with my new story. I would really appreciate it. And, five reviews and I'll update. Hasta luego.
