Megan

Nightwing

Aqualad

Superboy

Kid Flash

Artemis

THATS IT! Tim has also NOT joined them yet.

now that thats cleared up, EnJoy~!~!


~Justice Mountain~

Dick was pacing back and forth in the library, fully arrayed in his Nightwing uniform but looking very vulnerable at the moment. He'd gone back to his team, but he still was so worried he couldn't focus on anything but Jason.

Aqualad came up to him, worry evident in his face as well.

"What troubles you, my friend?" he asked.

Before Nightwing could answer, Batman's masked face appeared on the big screen at the end of the room.

The team quickly gathered around it to listen.

"Finally, a new mission, Bats?" Wally sounded impatient.

"Yes," Batman simply stated. "We are going to look for a man named Jason Todd. He disappeared last night around eleven PM."

"Why do we need to find him? Can't the police take care of things like this?" Artemis asked, a bit annoyed.

"He….is an old... friend." Batman said.

Dick managed a wobbly grin, happy that he could finally help find his brother.

"Have you found any leads yet?" he eagerly inquired.

"Yes, just north of Gotham. There have been reports of a man running around, and he has similarities to Ja – this man." Batman halted on the last words, trying not to give himself away. He doubted that the team would be of any help if they knew they were rescuing the Red Hood.

"What are we waiting for, then? Let's go!" Nightwing's voice was a little too relieved to keep his former worry fully concealed- the team gave him a few strange looks, but he was already heading to the bioship and didn't see them.

~Somewhere In Gotham~

The black-haired girl sprinted down the long, narrow alleys and crowded streets. She couldn't seem to make her legs go fast enough-she kept repeating Jason's name in her mind again and again, to drown out the growing pain in her side. She hadn't eaten for a while either, and her stomach was beginning to hurt from hunger.

The girl suddenly tripped over a can in an alley. She tumbled to her knees, falling facefirst onto the rain-sodden asphalt. She quickly got up, holding one knee, trying to make the pain of the jarring impact less. She wiped her face with an equally dirty hand and started running again.

~Unknown Location~

Jason opened his eyes. Everything was blurry, his thoughts not clear. He heard a few bumps in the background, but was still too groggy to recognize them. And there was a slight vibration in the ground on which his chair still rested.

He was cold. He registered that almost instantly.

Jason opened his eyes all the way and took note of his surroundings as his mind cleared. It was dark and small, perhaps the same place they had been earlier. He looked to the right and saw a man standing there, features blurred by both Jason's poor vision and the darkness.

Jason just barely managed to make out a smirk on his face before he took another cloth from a pocket and poured something on it.

Jason eyes widened as he remembered what it meant. He didn't want to be drugged again; there were too many things to do, and he didn't even know if his sister was safe...

And it was too late.

Damn it, not again…

For the second time, the odd-smelling cloth slammed into his face, and his vision faded.

~Somewhere In Gotham~

The girl was still running, her feet laced with cuts both tiny and large, gleaned from shards of broken beer bottles and who knows what else she had stepped on during her desperate race. She barely paid attention to them; she was coming closer to Batman and the feeling of victory was taking the pain's place.

She was still running, the rain and her wet hair both obscuring her vision, when she crashed into something, hard, making her fall to her knees again.

She looked up, brushed the hair out of her face and wiping the polluted rain out of her eyes.

"I-im sorry- I didn't mean t-" she cut herself off as she saw who she had run into.

There was a group of people standing around in the alley, but her mind zeroed in on the black-masked man in front.

"B-Batman!" she cried out, her voice so relieved and happy it could have brightened the entire dark alley, were it a better situation to start with.

She wrapped her arms around his leg, rocking slightly back and forth as she realized that she had reached her journey's end.

The other people gave her weird looks.

She looked up at Batman, tears in her eyes.

"I've been looking for you for the longest time! Y-you have to help me!" she cried, suddenly anguished instead of joyful.

A young green woman in a black and red suit flew- flew -up to her. The girl stared for a moment, admiration and wonder plain in her eyes. The young woman knelt next to the little girl as she landed. "Hello, sweetie! What can we help you with?" she kindly inquired.

The girl shook her head in answer, going back to the task at hand.

"You have to help me save him!" she yelled at the man in the batsuit.

"Save who?" asked a boy with flaming red hair and a yellow-and-red suit.

"Jason! Help me save him! T-they took him. An- an' h-he traded- he traded places w-with me... T-there go-gonna hurt h-him! P-Please!"

The girl broke down into sobbing.

"Please..." she managed, just before her eyes closed and she slumped forward. Megann's arms caught her before she hit the ground.

Batman looked over at Nightwing, grim-faced. "Looks like we've found our lead," he muttered, his voice low.

Whoever had Jason was going to pay if they so much as touched him.
