Pangari's heart dropped into her stomach. She felt as if she was about to pass out as she watched Robin crumple up on the floor. Scotty kicked him in the head in order to knock him out. Pangari suddenly snapped. She launched herself at Scotty and started hitting him as hard as she could. She forced him to the ground in her onslaught, her anger growing with every blow.

Batman was battling the Joker when the other League members came down.

"Child!" Aquaman cried pulling Pangari off of Scotty.

She was sobbing uncontrollably.

"Robin! Robin! Robin!" she wept, her entire body trembling.

Artemis looked at the man. She made a mental note: Don't piss Pangari off…or she might try and beat you to death.

Aquaman handed her over to Flash. He rushed over to Scotty, who was staring blankly at the ceiling. The King of Atlantis looked back at the blood stained girl in Flash's arms. Who knew she could do this?

"Robin?" Aqualad called tentatively.

He kneeled down beside the younger teen, gently shaking him. The Atlantian scooped Robin up and looked at Pangari.

"Pangari? It'll be okay Pangari…."he said.

She looked up at him and said, "Not really…Mercy's dead…"

The Flash's eyes widened and he demanded how she knew.

"I can just feel it."

Batman had finally gotten Joker under control, with a little unwanted help from Superman. Batman fixed his gaze on Pangari. She glared back at him and snapped, "I DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS HERE WITH WALLY! HE COULDN'T HAVE FOLLOWED ME ANYWAY! I MADE SURE TO LEAVE WHILE HE WAS STILL UNCONCIOUS SO HE WOULDN'T COME AFTER ME!"

She continued to cry, turning away from the group. The Flash gently guided her out of the building, and over to where Kid and Renee were. Kid was holding Renee, who was crying as well. Pangari knew what had happened.

Mercy had died.

Renee looked up and screamed. She embraced her little sister crying, "Jess…oh Jessie! I thought you were dead!"

Jess hugged her sister back wordlessly. She didn't speak for a long time. She just stood there, in her older sister's embrace, feeling much older than thirteen.
