Chapter 6! Thanks to everyone who reviewed! Strange how deep inside everyone is a sadist…

Enjoy! (0,0) panda…

The fight didn't start well. Garth turned into a panther, but was soon caught up in a tooth to claw battle with the plus sized lion. Superboy was fighting the over sized monkeys, Artemis and Wally were fighting the plus sized leopard, and Megan was trying to help Garth. Meanwhile, the bats and Zatanna were against Circ. Circ had kept a giant cat close to her as well. The fight was going slowly

20 minutes

Nightwing was off to the side. There wasn't mush he could do as a cat. A monkey decided to attack him. Nightwing did a weird flip, dodging a swipe and clawed at the monkey's face. The monkey screamed and the two were soon in deadly combat until Nightwing was able to bite the monkey's ear. The monkey ran off when Nightwing gave it some piercings.

Conner was having difficulties with the other stupid monkeys. He kept throwing them off his back, but more kept coming. Megan had gotten over to Conner to help. Together, the two just barely kept themselves from being over run. Garth was fighting his heart out against now two giant cats. Garth had changed into a gorilla, but his form was shifting. Only recently had he acquired his shape-shifter abilities, and he was still learning his limits. He was awfully close to his limit now.

Circ laughed manically as her muttering kept Zatanna from doing anything to help her friends. Batgirl and Robin were also fighting two giant cats.

15 minutes

Circ's eyes snapped open and they glowed red. Zatanna's eyes glowed gold, but for only a second the glow dropped. Zatanna had been distracted by Kaldur being thrown into her and Rocket shouting out. Both Kaldur and Rocket were fighting one giant cat and about five giant monkeys. Kaldur's weight dragged Zatanna from her concentration.

"Ahhh!" Zatanna screamed. Then a cat pounced on her and she went hand to hand combat with an injured Kaldur struggling to stand and watch her back.

Circ smile triumphantly and shouted out in a foreign language something that sounded evil. Zatanna paled a bit, but her attacker kept her from muttering a counter spell. All the light in the area disappeared.

10 minutes

The battle became silent. No one moved.

Guys, turn on your heat visors! Wally advised. Nightwing caught sight of a faint red glowing over where Wally and Artemis had been.

"WHOA!" Wally yelled and a small scuffle was heard.\

Wally! – Artemis

I see him! – Conner said. Nightwing remembered how the super had heat vision.

Turning on my visor! – Robin

The scuffle was getting louder until Wally's whoop of victory was heard.

"Don't bother with any heat-detecting goggles. You will never see me! No human could with this magic!" Circ's voice echoed through the room. No one could pin-point where is came from. Superboy growled.

"Well, I see all your pets! We'll just take them out than." Wally's footsteps were heard for a short while, then they stopped.

"Really?" Circ taunted.

"Oh shi-" Wally was cut off as another scuffle started, this time Nightwing heard the scuffle coming from both sides of the room. Conner was fighting too.

9 minutes

"Zatanna, Miss Martian, Beast Boy, Rocket, all of you, get out of reach!" Kaldur called his voice hoarse. The sound of a pounce was heard. Circ laughed and the fighting started again. No one could see except the animals.

8 minutes

The animals!

"Guys, I'm beat!" wheezed Garth. Nightwing cursed to himself, of course, this was a lot to do on your first real mission. Then, Nightwing caught something out of the corner of his eye.

7 minutes

A shadow stood not to far from the second smallest, human blob in the room. The human blob had to be Robin, Nightwing decided. The large shadow smelled strange. Nightwing could smell, lightning?

6 minutes

The larger shadow seemed to point at Robin. The boy was scanning the room looking for something that might attack him. The whites of his mask glowed a dim red, showing his heat sensors were on.

5 minutes

The air felt charged and Nightwing's ability to breathe suddenly felt hard. He gasped and felt every hair on his body raise. The shadow was defiantly pointing at Robin.

4 minutes

Nightwing knew what was going to happen now. Nightwing tried to run but his legs felt like lead. The world was silent, then a black panther pounce towards Nightwing.

3 minutes

The larger cat swiped at Nightwing, slicing the skin on the distracted, small cat's back. Nightwing hissed and swiped at the panther. His claws came out a swiped across the panther's nose.

2 minutes

The panther didn't give up. It swiped at Nightwing again, this time it caught him full on the shoulder and flung him across the room. Nightwing went flying and hit some one.

"What!" he couldn't register the voice because his head was spinning.

1 minute

Nightwing got up and sprinted towards what he knew was his little brother. He launched himself in the air, just as the blinding light made the world explode.
