/A/N/ No need to worry, papa's home ;D But seriously I'll be starting a dance central story soon Like, two okay? Love ya. ;D

Conner lay soundly, though not asleep he knew this would be the only time to feel so close to his beloved. Be glanced down, his face reddening as the other prince clung to him lovingly, his collar exposed in his loose sleep wear, even his creamy legs exposed up to the thigh clung to the other's. . . his lips pouted as he sighed in his sleep, gripping Conner's shirt softly, unconsciously. Conner looked around, slight guilt in his heart as he leaned down, his lips nearing Robin's, the heat that radiated of the younger's lips left him dazed, his hand traced the other's soft skin, along his collarbone, up his neck. .and caressing his cheek . . . he bit his own, sighing, simply pushing the other's bangs up to plant a soft kiss on the other's head.

A rusting was heard outside the window and Conner sat up, he held his saber and crept over.

"Kehehehe~!" No. He held it up, glancing over as Richard sat up rubbing his eyes.

"Conner...?"

"Robin run!"

It was too late, a mist shrouded the room and before Conner could swing the blade he he fell to the ground, his eyes dazed as a cackling laugh and a cry from Robin escaped, "Conner!"

"Kahahaha~!"

It was too late, Conner fell unconscious.

Outside guards barged into the room, Conner lie beside the open window, unconscious, and Robin was missing.

"Prince Richard is missing!" The guards began to shout Artemis ran into the room, shaking Conner to no avail. She grabbed the bouquet of roses and poured it on him, he jolted up.

"Where's Richard!?"

Artemis looked down as Bruce barged into the room, repeating Conner's question.

Bruce lifted a note the lied on the boys' bed, a black envelope, with a red curve of bloody paint on it, resembling a smile. . a wide smile.

He tore open the envelope, Artemis and Conner behind him reading the paper.

"Hello Batty~~ It seems as though this war between us has shed so so so so so much. . BLOOD~ But, none from your side. How sad... Perhaps, we should shed the blood of your beloved Son, that sounds nice. Maybe tear him apart from the inside out~ Make him scream."

Bruces hand shook.

"But. . that'd get me nothing, what I really want is that soldier, the masked one who's killed almost half of my soldiers! That's who I want. Alive. And he must, and I do mean must fight for me. Otherwise. . . I might have to take the poor Prince's "honor". . .and of course, his life. Oh sigh, sigh, sigh I do have my worries though, I fear you'll send those dreadful knights to over run my lovely castle so, if the one known as, "Kid Flash" comes for Robin, with anyone by his side except for ONE chaperone (Whom is NOT Batty), I'll kill the poor prince on the spot. And, I don't expect you'd ruin my beauty sleep. . So come at sundown tomorrow, before I get hungry at midnight.
And, I'm really not 'Joking' this time~"

Bruce tore the paper in half, a scream roaring from his chest.

"Guards fetch me Wallace West!"

"Aye!"

Miles away the prince struggled as a blindfold was tugged away from his eyes, wincing at the light he glanced up.

"Y..you're the. . ."

"Joker. Please, call me your highness." He grinned, leaning down to trace the prince's cheek.

"Such..soft skin." Robin shuttered, feeling sick. "I suppose you've heard of me, perhaps from your father, I suppose I was that bedtime monster he'd read you in fables."

"I'm not a child." Robin spat, "I know who you are, Jack Knapier, you go by the name Joker labeled so for your sadistic methods you seem to find oh so humorous. You're a monster."

"Right you are~!" He chimed, striking the other across the face. Robin whimpered as he hit the ground.

"What do you want! If it's for my kingdom to surrender than kill me now." Robin snarled.

"How noble. But that's not what I want. I just want one person. A warrior. 'Kid Flash'."

"What do you want with Wally!?"

" 'Wally'? Ohoho~ Oh my~ Is he your Concubine? Your whore?"

"How dare you!"

"Oh! Such fire! He must be your beloved." Joker grinned, "That makes this all the more fun, for you see, I've left a note."

"A note. . .?"

"Yes, 'Wally' is to come here with a chaperon, Not your father under any circumstance, tomorrow at sundown, and if he's not here my midnight, well . . You've lived plenty, now haven't you?"

Robin's heart skipped a beat.

"You're not going to hurt him. . . right?"

"Now why would I hurt my best soldier? No, no, no he'll fight for me until his dying day, driven by hatred and jealousy. I'd've never gotten that part without finding out about you two~ Tell me, what does daddy think of all this~?"

"Wally is a prisoner. . . He's forbade from seeing me."

"Oh let me guess because he's not royalty~?" Robin nodded. "Well, I'll let you in on a little secret~ I'd give you the option to cover your ears, but you're shackled up like a cute little pet~"

Robin glanced up curiously.

"Your father is a big~ fat~ Hypocrite~!"

"Wha-How?"

"I suppose you know his royal guard, Barry~ Right?"

Robin's eyes widened.

"You don't mean-"

"Heheh~I do."

Robin'd been shocked, he thought that was causing him to fall faint, but it was the incense, he noticed Joker putting on a mask before his vision went blank.

"Good night, Richard." He cackled.

Back at the kingdom Wally stood before the king, shackled, dirty and still in part of his costume from the previous evening.

"What do you require your royal assness." Wally spat, his heart heavy. Beside Bruce stood Conner, he looked aside.

"Richard has been kid napped."

Wally's eyes went wide for a moment, before realization.

"Send Prince Charming!" He yelled stubbornly.

"I plan on it." Bruce sighed, "Beside you."

"Why me!? Why dangle Richard in front of me knowing I love and can't have him you sick monster!" Wallace shouted.

"Because, he's been kidnaped by King Knapier!" Wally glanced up again.

"And his letter demanded you go."

"Why."

"Because. . . You're to fight on his side."

"What!?"

"If you don't he's going to rape and murder Richard!"

Wally's eyes filled with tears. "Fine!" He yelled, "But I don't want to work with him! Send me with anyone, Barry, Artemis!"

"He's going with you, that's final. Think of Richard!"

Wally realized the danger this arguing caused. . . he had to make sure Robin would be safe.
"Fine. . . When do we leave?"

"Noon, he expects you to arrive by sundown and no latter than midnight."

Wally nodded as the shackles were unlocked.

"I expect armor, my saber, and my own steed." He commanded. His green eyes were no longer dull and green, nor envious and lime, rather they were emeralds, darkened with smoke.

"And you!" He pointed to Conner, "You're not to speak a word to me, if I go of there won't be guards there to protect you this time." Conner simply nodded, his expression straight as Barry led Wally away.

"Wally."

". . ."

"Wally. . ." Barry sighed, Wally turned to his uncle, his dominant facade dying as his eyes began to drip and his lip quiver. He clung to Barry crying into his chest.

"What am I going to do!"

"Shh.." Barry sighed, wiping his own eyes before holding his sobbing nephew, "Things. . won't be alright. . but try to focus on what you're fighting for, who you've been fighting for." And as they pulled away Barry pointed to a portrait of his young highness.

Wally didn't smile, he simply wiped his nose and eyes. . . Tomorrow would come all too quickly.
