I Do Not Own Anything!
Under the balcony, three storeys above ground, a young boy was holding a red clad archer from falling to the ground.
"You okay?"
"I think you dislocated my shoulder" Roy stopped to wince "Pull me up."
Robin braced his feet on the railing and, with much difficulty, pulled the older man up.
"Geez, you put on some weight."
"Yeah right, shrimp."
"I bet you didn't say that to Nightwing."
"He's a strong shrimp."
Robin didn't comment, he only shoved the archer's arm back into the socket.
"You got a plan?"
"No, I don't even know where to begin looking for Nightwing"
"I do, I can't say anything more without giving away our secret identities."
A blur zoomed past them and screeched to a helt right in front of them
"That totally crashed the mode! I was like ZOOOMZOOM! SCREEEECH! ALL around Gotham and the US looking for some crash and then I saw you guys in the distance, so I was like ZOOOOOOOM! To try and get to you and then bad guy pushed you off the side so I was all like SHROOM! But then I saw you catch him so I was like OKAY! Then I looked up and saw Nightwing then the bad guy, looked kinda like an OWL then I went SHOOM to try and stop him. But the bad guy already had Wing so I went ZOOOOOM! But he did a weird little stealth thing so then I went WOOOSH ZOOOMSHOOM! Then I couldn't find him, you didn't see me cause I was going too fast, then I went SHOOOOM! And came right back here to see you pull him back up that must taken a lotta muscle, THEN, I heard you talking so I went ZOOM ZOOM WOOSH and came back right in front of you and here I am. That was so Crash."
Robin and Red Arrow blinked at the hyperactive speedster, not one word registered in either of the boy's minds.
"Ummm, are you sure Impulse?"
"Nah, I was just going for a stroll and happened to see the last few seconds."
"Oh."
Robin replied, Roy growled lightly and stood up
"Whenever you're ready Robin, we need to go as soon as possible"
"Like I don't know that already, we're gonna need backup… do you happen to carry a cellphone? Batman doesn't let me go on patrol with mine"
Roy shoveled through his pockets and quiver before pulling out a small flip phone, Robin dialed a quick number and mouther to Roy
"No speed dial?"
The elder shrugged, shouldering his quiver
"Yeah… it's Robin… unhuh… don't hang up!... Yeah… D got taken by the Tals… Yeah… Okay… I'm with RA and Imp… Unhuh… Meet up where Alan Wayne was killed… I'll leave breadcrumbs… Not literally… Okay… Rally the troops, Robin out."
When the Boy Wonder looked up he saw Roy covering Bart's mouth with his hand, keeping the youth from moving.
"Umm, Red, you can let go now, I'm done"
"He's annoying, we should leave him behind."
"We need all the help we can get."
"He's not help, he's a weirdo"
"He has superpowers, something that we lack"
"He's fast enough to save out hides from their throwing knives."
"We'll settle this conversation later."
Robin growled
"Now let's go, they're assassins not babysitters"
Robin wasted no time and shot out his grappling line and swinging, Roy followed by running along rooftops and occationally shooting a line arrow, Bart zigzagged beneath them.
Red Arrow called out
"Got a plan?"
"Making this up as I go along!"
Robin's reply came, making the older archer roll his eyes, suddenly, Robin let go of his grapppling line, sending the young boy tumbling to the cement.
Red Arrow would have been scared for Tim's life, but being with batkids for this long has taught him of their suicidal impulses and reckless desires. Especially Nightwing, who enjoyed freaking out everyone by jumping off rooftops before waiting until the last second before saving himself.
Sure enough, the little bird was crouched by an uncovered sewer drain, Roy landed a little less gracefully next to the raven haired boy, Impulse zipped up
"We're not going in there, are we?"
As a response, Tim slithered inside quickly, his cape snapping behind him, Roy put his bow over his shoulder before sliding him also, Bart groaned before pinching his nose and diving.
Author's Note: Yep, the fight'll be next chapter, I needed a transition chapter. Chapter Nine is probably going to be shorter but it'll come sooner, maybe tomorrow morning.
I won't end the story completely, even though this will only be eleven chapters in total, I'll write a sequel because it's a completely different plot and I can't have it under the same summary.
REVIEW PLEASE!
Since I'm getting more and more reviews, I love it when you review, the next chap might be up tomorrow and I write faster with reviews, they feed my plot bunny.
So review! Not an order, you're allowed not to review but if you have any advice, I'll gladly take it.
I'll stop rambling now, just review, they make me happy.
