Me: Okay so here we have chapter two! YAY!
Robin: This chapter sucks!
Me: It does not!
Robin: Sure it doesn't.
Me: So help me Robin if you don't shut up I will make sure Joker hits you very hard in the head with a crowbar!
Robin: Shutting up now!
Me: Wait, can you do the disclaimer first?
Robin: Uh, I guess RFF doesn't-
Joker: RFF doesn't own anything in this! HEHEHE
Me and Robin: JOKER?
Me: What are you doing! Robin is supposed to do the disclaimer!
Joker: Well, I'm in the story ain't I-?
Me: Ain't isn't a word.
Joker: Whatever Miss. Robin stalker!
Me: I'm no Robin stalker!
Joker: Then how do you explain your desktop screen savor that switches to a different Robin photo every ten minutes.
Me: SHUT UP! NO ONE'S SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT!
Robin: LOOK, SHE DOESN'T OWN ANYTHING! LET'S JUST GET ON WITH THE STUPID STORY!
Luate
Mt. Justice
The team was quietly lounging by themselves. They didn't pay attention to one another as they each did something different. M'Gann was baking a cake from what it looked like. Wally was playing video games with Artemis, though they were both arguing while playing. Conner was helping M'Gann, where needed. And Kaldur was reading a book with the title 'The Adventures of Dod' though no one in the room was sure what it was. They did know though that the picture on the front was so obviously photo shopped it wasn't even funny. But Kaldur seemed to like it, so they didn't ask about it.
"Ha, I win again, Baywatch!" Artemis said, punching the air.
"No fair! You cheated!"
"Did not!"
"Did to!"
"Not-"
"To-"
"Not-"
"To-"
"NOT!-"
"TO!-"
"Team, report to the debriefing room for you mission." The rest of the team sighed happily knowing that the fight was over. They all got up and stopped what they were doing as they came towards Batman. He was standing in front of a screen, showing a picture of an ebony haired boy with a large smile on his face. He also had shocking blue eyes, making the team gap a little at the sight of them. Wally, who was eating a bag of chips, began to choke as he saw his best friend's picture on the screen. Conner quickly helped him; Wally gave Conner a quick 'thanks', looking back at the screen.
"This is a picture of Dick Grayson, son of billionaire Bruce Wayne. Today he was abducted from school."
"I heard about this, rumor has it that Ivy's behind it because of three other boys' that were found hanging from the ceiling by vines." Artemis piped in. The team looked at her but she didn't say anymore.
"Ivy is a suspect, but that is not why you are here. You need to save Richard from whoever has captured him."
"Why, he's just some rich kid?" Conner said bitterly, feeling like they were as he said it 'taking out the League's trash' again.
"Wayne is a huge funder to the Justice League. It would only be right to repay him by saving his son."
Conner grunted but said no more. Batman pulled up a news feed on what was going on.
"Hello viewers, for those just joining us, I'm Vikki Vale; a few hours ago Richard Grayson was abducted from Gotham Academy. Rumor has it that-"
The screen went fuzzy, surprising everyone –including Batman – in the room. The screen began to clear again, this time it showed a dark room. In the middle of the room was a chair, a boy in a uniform was sitting on the chair, cuffs were on his hands and attached to the arms of the chair. The same cuffs were on the legs of the chair, and were connected to his ankles. His head was bowed, showing that he was unconscious. His normally slicked back hair was messy and dirty, his uniform was torn and a few cuts covered his arms and legs. A dark bruise was on one side of his face.
(Bruce's P.O.V)
I couldn't believe my eyes. There was my son, in some dark room, with who knows. I couldn't stand the thought of anything bad happening to Dick. I wanted to scream out and tare whoever did this to shreds! Dick was thirteen! He didn't deserve this! No one did! That's why the Justice League is around! So people don't have to go through stuff like this! I took a calming breath and remembered why I was at Mt. Justice in the first place. I had wanted to save Dick by myself. But last time someone had hurt Dick it didn't end to well. The man who had done it was sent to Arkham in a body cast. I knew if I found whoever did this then I wouldn't be able to control myself.
That's the only real reason I decided to even come to his friends. I knew Wally would be eager to help anyway. Those two had been best friends ever sense they first met. I couldn't believe how fast they had become friends. I knew I was feeling terrible about what we were seeing on the screen but so was Wally I'm sure. I noticed how he had choked on his bag of chips when he walked in and really I couldn't blame him.
He's a good kid… I guess. I really didn't want him to influence Dick to do wrong. But when Dick had moved in he didn't leave his room often. He didn't talk much and if it was it would be to thank me or Alfred. He would always call me Mr. Wayne instead of Bruce. Same with Alfred, it was always "Thank you Mr. Alfred." Though it was quite adorable, I finally got him to talk after a while, but still the boy seemed alone.
He didn't know anyone his age, so that's when I and Flash compromised. He brought over Wally and the two had so much fun together. I sighed as I thought of this. Wally was a good friend to Dick. I knew that, and Dick obviously knew that Wally was good. I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard an unearthly cackle. I turned back to the screen as I saw a face I never wanted to see. "Hello viewers, as the reporter lady was trying to say, we have abducted rich boy!"
(Normal P.O.V)
"Hello viewers, as the reporter lady was trying to say, we have abducted rich boy!" Joker said with another unearthly cackle. "Now, you're probably wondering, what do I mean when I say 'we'? It's simple, come on out!" Two more shadows appeared behind Dick. Both stepped out making everyone in the room gasp. "It's Red and coin boy!"
"It's Two Face!" Two Face replied angrily.
"Whatever, that's not the point." Joker looked back at the screen. "The point is that you have exactly twenty four hours to give us a ransom of one billion dollars, before the boy dies! Now some of you are wondering, why should be pay that money for just one boy? Well, not only will we kill the boy if they ransom is not paid, we will also destroy the city! All over the city are bombs, set to go off twenty four hours from now. Choose wisely, and act fast, I don't think this pore boy can take another beating." Joker lifted Dick's chin. The boy's dark bangs were hanging in front of his eyes, almost hiding them completely from view. "Better hurry, your twenty four hours start… NOW!"
The screen went black and back to Vikki. She looked shocked at what had just happened. The rest of the team also looked shocked. But as for Wally and Bruce, they looked ready to tare something or someone in half.

"JOKER!" Ivy yelled turning towards the insane clown. "WHY THE HECK DID YOU SAY THAT! WE DON'T HAVE BOMBS EVERYWHERE!"
"Yes, but they don't know that, now do they?" Joker let out a cackle as he walked over to Dick, who was still slumped in the chair.
Robin: I told you it sucked.
Me: Shut up Robin, I just got rid of Joker I am not in the mood to deal with you too!
Robin: *Clamps mouth shut*
Batman: WHAT THE *#&$! YOU CAN'T DO THAT TO MY SON!
Me: Batman, language, kids could be reading this!
Batman: I DON'T GIVE A *%& YOU $&% YOUR TRYING TO TORTURE MY SON!
Me: I'll probably regret this later, but... *Grabs evil frying pan of doom and hits Batman with it* I'm dead.
Robin: Please review!
