Kaldur sat quietly in his seat as Black Canary sat down across from him, getting comfortable she waited for him to start. In their previous meetings Kaldur spoke freely of matters but when it came to what happened to Robin he seemed struck.

"When we came on as the apprentices of the League, we knew the dangers, the need to keep separate from others. But as a team we have become close, we have found comfort in each other in time of need. I just hope when Robin returns to us in full health, he is welcomed as he was before….", he fell silent and Black Canary possessed his words.

"Your afraid the others will see him as weak because of his being taken by a villain?", Kaldur nodded slowly. "How will you see him Kaldur?".

"I will see him as he was", he looked up and she smiled at him.

Black Canary watched as Connor shifted in his seat and rubbed the back of his neck. The clone was always hard when it came to their sessions, but recently he had opened up to her about his thoughts and emotions.

"I talked to him", he spoke quickly.

"You spoke to who?", she asked.

"Superman, we talked", he looked up at her.

"That's great Connor', she was happy for him, all he ever wanted was to be seen by his should be mentor. "Do you wish to share?".

"For now I don't, but I will", she nodded and watched as he smiled.

"Last time we talked you had mentioned Wally, is he what you are thinking about now?", Artemis looked at Canary and raised one eyebrow.

"I don't see why we need these sessions", she crossed her arms over her chest and sank back into the chair.

"Artemis Im here to help you".

"Im worried about my team ok is that what you want to hear?', Black Canary sighed, Artemis was always the crap shoot it was either she talked or she just sat and stared.

…...

As M'gann left the counciling room Black Canary rubbed her face in exhaustion, the teens were all stressed from the recent events but they would all recover. The only team member she had yet to speak with was Wally, and she had a feeling that that session would be the most heartbreaking. The speedster had taken the loss of Robin the hardest, they had been friends for a long time.

The two in her mind were like twins, Robin moved and Wally knew how to respond without a word passing between the two. Walking down the hall she came to a stop outside the Medical lab doors and glanced in. Wally was hunched over his head resting against his hand as he slept. Entering quietly she grabbed a blanket from one of the cabinets and laid it over the sleeping teen.

"Rob?….Give back my candy bar…", she had to stop a chuckle as Wally shifted and mumbled in his sleep. Backing away she paused when she pumped into someone. Turning her head she saw Batman. He turned and left the room and Black Canary followed being careful not to disturb the sleeping teen.

"How is Robin", his monotone voice made her shake her head, he was always so well put together when she knew inside he was shaken.

"Physically he is healing well, the toxins are leaving his system and the blood transfusions have helped greatly", he nodded.

"How long has Wally been there with him?".

"He hasn't left his side since you left", she watched as Batman nodded and walked back into the lab. Watching through the window she saw the dark knight set up a cot beside Robin's bed and then tuck Wally into it. She couldn't help but smile as she watched them.

"He may be Batman but he is still a father", she turned to see Superman as he approached slowly.

"Its good to see there is something that keeps him human", wiping her eyes she smiled at the man of steel. "You spoke to Connor?".

"Y-yes I did", he stammered as he thought back to speaking with the boy.

"What changed your mind?", she watched Clark look into the lab as Batman sat in the now empty seat and brushed Robin's hair back.

"A father who for what im sure felt like a life time lost his son".

…...

Artemis struck out and watched as Super Boy dodged and flipped backwards to get some distance on her. Breathing heavily she attacked again but pulled up short as Kaldur rolled between them.

"Nice hit M'gann", Super Boy chuckled but was quickly silenced as Artemis delivered a kick to his chest causing him to fall on his backside.

"Focus Connor, focus", Artemis tried to sound like Red Tornado as she offered him a hand up.

"That's girls three boys one, you guys are losing", M'gann pointed out as she helped Kaldur to his feet.

"Recognized Red Arrow B06", the zeta tubes glowed a soft blue as a figure stepped through. The others all turned to see Red enter the room, his bow and quiver long gone as he was dressed in civilian attire.

"Hello Red Arrow", M'gann greeted him and he nodded his eyes hidden behind black shades.

"Found the warehouse Robin was held in.", he cut straight to business and Kaldur came to stand before him, interested in the information.

"How did you find it?".

"Joker had help taking him, I back tracked from there", Artemis narrowed her eyes, Red was lying, but why?

"Who helped him?", Connor asked as he two came to stand with Kaldur.

"Poison Ivy".

"I see and your source is good?", Red nodded as he pulled out a small computer input device.

"This holds the location and pictures I took to document the sight should it be tampered with. When I got there it looked like someone used an underground exit to escape from the inside. Wouldn't have found it if the hatch wasn't left open.", Kaldur took the device and nodded.

"Thank you Red Arrow", the team whispered a thank you but Artemis remained quite.

"We should show the League don't you think Kaldur?", M'gann looked from him to the device questioningly and he nodded.

"Yes Red Arrow you are welcome to stay-"

"No I really have to be going, the joker is still lose out there, and as much respect as I have for Batman, I think it would be better if someone else caught the freak", Kaldur shook his hand and turned to follow Connor and M'gann. Roy turned for the zeta tubes only to pull up short at the sight of Artemis standing in his way.

"You failed to mention who your source was", she placed her hands on her hips.

"Didn't know I had to", he growled back as he watched Artemis.

"Whatever…a while back you warned me not to hurt them…now I'm returning the favor. If you hurt my friends or my family, ill shoot you with your own bow and arrow", she moved past him to follow the others not caring if he had anything else to say. Roy turned his head to watch her leave his eyes narrowed as he lifted his hand to his neck, rubbing free the cover he used to mask the claw marks he sighed in frustration. Did Artemis know? Would she tell the others if she did?

Brushing off the thoughts he went to the zeta beam teleportation tubes and stepped inside. "Recognized Red Arrow B06".
