The Red
Disclaimer: I don't own young justice just my f'd up version of red hood.
A/N: it's been awhile since I updated but I half to write like one short story per day from my English class. But I'm trying my best. I just go All Star Batman and Robin the wonder boy…Bruce is a douche in it but there's a line: fast hands my little Robin. Fast hands, big mouth. So funny. I dislike some of the plot things they've changed but I love Bruce's inner turmoil of not knowing how to show kindness to Dick. Anyway of you're not die hard old school I'd recommend it.
The team (minus Robin) is in awe at the sight of the massive stone cavern that is the bat cave. Robin leads the way further in.
"I always wonder what this place looked like," Wally mutters.
"Master Robin," Alfred approaches the group. "Master batman informed me you have been injured." Robin looks down at his ankle and nods. The team follows at the elderly man takes Robin to an exam area. Dick takes a seat on the table and pulls up the leg of his costume.
Even super boy gives a hiss at the sight of the wound. While the gash itself is small but it is deep, deep enough to see a little white of the bone.
"I see you are still trying to put me in an early grave," Alfred mutters pulling out the materials to stitch the wound.
"Sorry Alfred," Dick smiles weakly. "There are my friends: Super boy, Miss. Martian, Artemis, Aqualad and Kid Flash."
"It is my pleasure to meet all of you," Alfred says. "Master Robin speaks very highly of all of you." The team feels a sense of united embracement.
"Now I you'll give me a moment to finish with Master Robin I have prepared cookies," the elderly man says carefully cleaning the knife wound. That is all Wally needs to hear to get him drooling.
"So what exactly do you do," Artemis asks Alfred.
"I take care of Master Batman and Robin's medical needs, cooking and cleaning," Alfred says simply.
"And a never ending source of good advice," Robin chimes in with his signature laugh (seriously I took that right out of the DC encyclopedia). Alfred is fast with his work but careful showing his clear care for Dick. Within moments he is finished. Alfred now goes up the stairs to fetch the promised cookie, the team settles around the cave before Kaldur finally asks the question that's on everyone's minds.
"Robin," Kaldur begin. "I fully understand that what happens in Gotham is Batman and yours business. But we have been extremely concerned about you. Please, tell us what is going on." Robin lets out a sigh as the guilt of worrying his friends washes over him. He knows batman has issues with other heroes in his city, but these are his teammates he feels they have a right to know.
"We've been attacked by a new villain," Robin explains. "He calls himself red hood and he is extremely violent and…" he takes a pause trying to pick his words carefully.
"He is trying to eliminate batman and me," Robin finally confesses.
"To elimate you," M'gann says nervously. "As in take your lives?" Dick merely nods his head. Super boy growls and digs his fingers into the arms of his chair.
"WELL THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN," Wally suddenly roars. "NO ONE IS GOING TO HURT MY BRO!" he slams he is fist down on the chair.
"Wally I appreciate your concern," Dick says. "But we're perfectly capable of taking care of what goes on in our city."
"Then why were you out of contact," Artemis demands.
"We had a bad run in with some fear gas," Robin waves his hand airily as if it is nothing. "Nothing we haven't dealt with before."
"So that's it," Conner demands suddenly standing. "You tell us someone is tried to kill you and expect us to just move aside? NO! There is no way you'd do that to any of us and there is no way in hell I'm just walking away!" rage is etched into the clones face: no one messes with his family. Robin shakes his head.
"It's not up to me," Robin says. "Its batman's call not mine" only seconds after his name is said something on Robin's wrist computer goes off. The thirteen year olds face pale.
"What is it," Wally asks. Robin tries to swallow the dry lump in his throat.
"It's Batman," Robin says. "He just sent off an emergency signal, he's been captured."
A/N: okay warning I feel needs to be made. Soon there will be EXTREME Robin torture. So until next time good bye and be prepared!
