Hanging On

Robin's POV

There is a blinding, unbearable pain everywhere, everything, taking over my consciousness and overwhelming me. God everything hurt so much. I can feel myself slipping away, entering a painless void, but I fight against it. I wasn't ready to leave my friends, to leave Bruce, to leave Zatanna. But it was a losing battle, I was hurt to badly. I feel myself inch closer and closer to death despite my efforts to hang on, to at least say good bye, when suddenly some of the pain is relieved and I'm able to pull away. I force my eyes to creak open, sounds slowly coming in around me accompanying the pain.

"...is he?" I hear Wally's voice say faintly. Slowly shapes come into focus through my slitted vision and I see Zatanna hovering worriedly over me, her eyes filled with tears. I try and say something tell her I'm okay but all I can manage out is a faint...

"Zee?" Her head snaps down and stares at me in total and utter disbelief.

"Robin how?" she stammers holding my hand tightly as the rest of the Team gathers around, mouths agape in surprise. I can't reply my eyes feeling heavy and she leans forward hugging my tight, trying to stay away from my many injures. "Please stay awake" she begs and I manage a nod telling her I would try. The rest of the Team snaps out of their surprise and Kaldur begins giving orders.

"Megan call the Bio-ship, Artemis go with her and prepare medical treatment." He orders two girls do as told immediately,dashing off. "Kid contact the League and inform them of our situation, Superboy please carefully get Robin to the bio-ship" Kaldur says. Wally looks at me, worry clear in his gaze before he dashes off to call the League and Conner walks over to my and Zatanna. Zee releases her hold on my, still gripping my hand tightly as Conner lifts me. I can't contain the scream of pain as he does so and he looks at my sympathetically before walking slowly towards the Bio-Ship. Zee refuses to let go of my hand,holding it in a death grip ,her hand ghostly white, as if she let me go I would just fade away. I hear police sirens nearing and arriving as we exit the building. Commissioner Gordon immediately rushes over to us.

"Who are you kids?" he asks before spotting me. "My god Robin what happened?"

"Te-teamup" I manage pointing to the building. The commissioner nods and places a light hand on my shoulder.

"You did good son" he tells me before waving in his other officers to deal with the villains. Miss. M opens the Bio-Ship doors and Conner, Kaldur, Zatanna rush me in. Conner gently lays me on the bed that Miss. Martian had formed and Megan wastes no time in lifting off into the air. The Team instantly gathers around me , M'Gann setting the ship to autopilot and Zee persistently holding my hand. I look up at them tiredly trying to keep my eyes open, but they could tell it was a losing battle. Zee's grip tightens on my hand and I can fuzzily see Kaldur pointing and ordering the others to do something but I can't make out the words. Artemis comes closer to me, holding bandages, and she murmurs something to me but I can't hear her, the world spinning around in circles. She and Wally begin to patch me up as best as they could but I can tell from the pain in my chest I had some internal damage too. Next Wally leans over my trying to say something but again the words jumble in my head, causing intense pain. I shut my eyes tight trying to block out the pain and focus on taking deep breaths, reopening my eyes slightly.

"Robin?" Miss. M's voice sounds in my head. "Just hang on a bit farther, we are almost at the Mountain" she comforts

"No promises Meg" I reply fighting to stay awake. I knew that if I allowed my eyes to slid shut I might never open them again. I blurrily see my friends exchange worried glances. Another searing jolt of pain splits my head, and I clench my fists letting out a weak yelp.

"Robin are you alright?!" Wally asks worriedly but I can feel myself slipping. "Rob dude we're almost there just please..." I never hear the rest of what he had to say because I fade away into the blackness.

I feel like this chapter was kinda useless, a filler, but it was necessary... anyway please...
