Robin sighed shakily, unsure where to exactly start, or where to end at that matter. He glanced slightly at the one way mirror. "Are they listening?" The boy frowned a bit.

"Only the league, all Young Justice members left for a mission."

"Convenient." The boy mutters but sighs.

"Are you ready to answer our questions Robin?" Batman continued, hoping that the boy won't start another game with him and take the questions seriously. "If you tell us what is going on, we can better protect you. And your family."

The boy shifted in his seat slightly, blue eyes casting down the the ground. "As long as none of you speak of it outside of this room, no one should be in danger." another shaky sigh and a small nod.

Batman smiled only slightly, content with that answer. "How old are you, Robin."

"I'll be thirteen next month."

Young, Batman was not surprised. "What age were you when you joined the League of Shadows."

"I didn't join It was more like forcibly recruited." Robin grumbled

"Robin please answer the question."

"I was eight… I was grabbed right after-" The boy swallowed hard, words getting caught in his throat.

Batman knew that must of been a sore topic of conversation for the boy, watching him as he began to shake. He sighed and got up, moving his chair to the other side of the table and sitting right back down next to Robin. " Robin, it's okay." Batman placed his hand gently on the boy's shoulder, who surprisingly did not move away from the kind gesture.

"A-after they died." The boy choked out, tears beginning to fall boy tried to wipe the tears away, but more fell and his body continued to shake. "I-I never got to say goodbye, they took me away from my home!" The boy soon grew angry, not at batman or at any of the rest of the JL, but at the League of Shadows and himself because he could not stop crying.

"Robin, I need you to calm down alright. Please tell me what happened." Batman looked at the one way mirror, giving a glance of desperation for help. He didn't have a protege, he did not know how to handle a child.

But the help he got, was definitely not his first choice for help.

Flash raced in and sat down on the table, giving a kind smile. "Hey kiddo. Let's not cry okay? What happened to that chipper little bird from earlier who was giving the Bat here a hard time?"

Robin looked up at The Flash, looking a little confused on why he was even in there with them. He stopped crying, sniffling a bit and tilted his head slightly.

Batman let out a relieved sigh, Barry defused the bomb known as Robin, that idiot's smile even got Robin to smile again. That was a good sign.

The Flash sat next to Robin and Batman before turning to face the boy. "Look I know this hard. You might have been trained to be a killer, but you are still a kid." Barry patted the boy's Raven hair. "Meaning it's okay to rely on adults for a change. No one here will judge you. We just want to help you out okay there little bird?"

Robin nodded and let out a small sigh to calm himself down. "Richard. My name is Richard Grayson."

Batman frowned a bit. He heard the name Grayson before but was unsure of where. He stayed quiet in hopes that he will get some more information to help him figure out where he heard the name before.

"My family.. we were part of Haley's Circus...We were a trapeze act." The boy smiled sadly, fidgeting with his hands as he spoke. "We were well known for doing death defying tricks without a net.."

Batman's eyes widen, he remembered now. The Flying Graysons were famous for their tricks, and he went to see their show when…"You were a part of The Flying Graysons." Batman did not say that as a question, the boy flinched and could only nod.

The flash gave Batman a confused glance, but Batman shook his head. He was not going to make this boy retell his family's demise. "So why Is the League of Shadows after you Robin?"

The boy gave Bruce a grateful smile at the change of subject. " I might have ran off"

"Ran off?" The Flash asked "That is a little extreme for just 'running off' , don't you think?"

Robin gave an embarrassed smile "I kinda hacked into their main files, copied them,crashed their system, kicked Ra's al Ghul in the face… and then I ran off." The boy admitted.

The two heroes looked at the boy in absolute shock, silence filled the room as they just stared in disbelief. This kid definitely had guts.

"Yeah..he definitely did not feel the aster" The boy managed a weak laugh, trying to disturb the silence." So ..uh… that brings us to the now I guess…"

"Why did you do it? Do you still have the copy of the file?"

The boy shook his head "I wanted out of that life. But everywhere I went I was brought a reminder. Which by the way hurts beyond belief." The boy motioned to his basically rags of a suit that was shredded from weapons. "I did not keep the files, I memorized what I could and destroyed it. I didn't want it in the wrong hands."

"So you are a hacker?" Batman Asked

"Uh yeah..I thought I made that clear." The boy looked up at Bruce in confusion

"And you obviously have hand-to-hand combat training. And I know personally that you have a strong kick." Bruce continued.

Awkward chuckle "Sorry about that."

The Flash looked at The Dark Knight in confusion. Was he smiling? Bruce NEVER smiled. "Are you okay there batman?" He asked carefully, a bit uneasy. He must have walked into the twilight zone, he must have!

"I am fine. Just thinking." Was all Bruce said.

Now both the Flash and the teen looked confused, glancing at each other before returning their attention back to the Caped Crusader.

"Let's get you a room so you can rest properly. But before that, I will have to take you to the medical bay and patch you up."

More confusion. "Uh… Okay?" Robin raised an eyebrow, wondering on what exactly the Dark Knight was thinking. He did know he was an ex-assassin right? How can he be so...whelmed?

The Fash must have been thinking the same thing, because he looked absolutely shocked. Robin laughed at that a little, a genuine, non sarcastic laugh that caught both of the heros' attention.

"You laughed." Flash commented

"I always laugh." The boy replied, face reddening a bit for getting caught in the act, before turning to look at batman again, who was putting back on his cowl. "But Why are you freeing me?"

"I never said I was freeing you." the boy's shoulders slumped a bit in understanding and nodded, but bruce added. "You will be supervised at all times, but I do not see why you cannot be patched up and get some much deserved sleep. Besides, we have a lot to talk about tomorrow when you wake up, and I want you well rested."

Robin blinked a bit " Talk about what?"

The Dark Knight simply shook his head and patted the boy's head. " I said tomorrow."

The boy pouted a bit, obviously not liking to be left in the dark but nodded slowly, knowing better than to press his luck any farther on the situation.

Batman turned to the also very disoriented and confused Flash, sighighing. "Lead the kid to the Medical Bay and keep an eye on him. I doubt he will try anything funny, but still do so." The Bat walked out of the room, ignoring the questioning looks his fellow heroes. He kept going, and before long a robotic voice announced his exit.

"Okay, that was..weird…"Robin frowned a bit.

"Yeah, even for Bats." The flash sighed and gently grabbed the boy's arm to lead him to the Medical Bay. "Well I do agree that you need to get patched up, let's go." He gave a small smile.

Robin smiled back a bit, knowing that his life was about to get a lot more interesting.
