I own nothing.
"DIIIIIIIIIIIIIICK!"
"WHAAAAAAT?"
"Master Richard, Master Timothy, I would appreciate it if you two would stop shouting across the house"
Alfred stated, ever calm. Tim dashed up the stairs, very fast but slow enough for Nightwing to stand up and open his bedroom door.
Drake stopped and panted for a few seconds while Dick watched, then the youth blurted out
"Ican'tfindmyweaponsorstafforbelt!"
Nightwing rolled his eyes and said
"Don't you have spares in the Batcave's cupboard?"
"Oh… yeah"
Robin bolted back down the stairs, leaving the Team's leader the chuckle lightly. Dick smiled at Alfred and the butler said
"I'd appreciate it if you kept your door unlocked and your windows closed, it's hard enough to vacuum the manor with Master Timothy running amuck"
Richard nodded and grinned
"Will do, A"
Dick went back in his room, making sure that everything was Alfred-approved before leaving for the Cave, not the Batcave, Mount Justice.
Tim swung beside him and Barbara joined after a few blocks, they chatted along the way, Dick usually left out because he went ahead of the other two.
Also, Nightwing was the first to see spinning silver blades spinning his way. He yelled at his teammates
"Drop!"
They obeyed his command without a thought, landing on the rooftop that they were above, thankfully not far away, they flipped, somersaulted and crouched to break their fall.
Nightwing was quick to spot the lone Talon on the rooftop a few buildings away. He looked down, the old phone booth was there
"Get to the Cave, go!"
Batgirl dropped first, Robin followed and Nightwing stayed, Barbara looked up at their leader
"Nightwing! Get down here!"
"Just get to Mount Justice, I'll be right behind you!"
The Talon's throwing knives started raining down on the trio, Batgirl dodged with great skill and Robin deflected them with his bo staff.
Nightwing threw a wingding of his own at the Talon and took out his eskrima sticks. Barbara paused to look up at Dick, Tim yelled at her
"Babs, get down!"
She moved just in time for the knife aimed at her to miss her throat, but another throwing knife sped after it, stabbing her thigh. Tim caught her as she wobbled, Barbara looked up and saw Nightwing's shadow battling out with a much larger figure.
"Batgirl, get in!"
Robin shoved the older girl into the phone booth
"Recognized, Batgirl B21"
Barbara stumbled into the Mission room, Bumblebee jogged over
"Batgirl! What happened?"
Wonder Girl flew over and they helped their injured teammate up, Conner asked
"Where's Nightwing and Robin?"
Weakly, Batgirl glanced at the zeta, the two batkids hadn't come back yet. The redhead gasped as Karen accidently touched the knife hilt embedded deep in the girl's leg.
"Let's get you to the med lab girl, it might've nicked an artery"
It was hard to see the blood with Batgirl's dark grey uniform but it was turning darker where the red liquid was soaking her leg.
Cassie and Conner carried Babs to the med bay and Karen worked with M'gann to remove the blade and stitch up the wound.
A few minutes later, Tim tumbled out of the zeta, a little scratched up and bruised but otherwise unharmed, Garfield hovered around his teammate asking questions a little too fast to understand.
Robin shushed the green boy and said
"It's a Talon"
"What's that?"
"No idea, Nightwing told me- OW, broken rib don't touch"
Mal glanced back at the entrance that Dick was supposed to come in through, nothing.
