Nightwing, Red Arrow, and Warp stood on top of a nearby roof, which is from where the Joker was spotted.
"Alright, boys, here's the plan." Red Arrow stated, kneeling down. "Warp, you'll disarm any thugs within the vicinity." Red Arrow began, as Warp gave a mock salute.
"Got it, boss." Warp responded with a smile.
"Nightwing, you and I will take care of the thugs while Warp searches for Joker." Red Arrow continued, as Nightwing nodded. "Warp, when you have the Jokers position, contact us immediately and we'll follow after you. Do not engage unless we are either there or I give you direct permission. Am I understood?" Red Arrow finished, as Warp nodded.
"Got it: Do not engage unless you guys are with me, or if I'm given permission." Warp repeated.
"Alright then." Red Arrow began, standing up and walking over to the edge. "Let's save some lives!" Red Arrow cried, jumping down from the ledge followed closely by Nightwing and Warp. When they landed on the ground, Warp got ready to find the thugs, only to be stopped when someone crashed through the wall of a nearby building.
"Argh!" The man screamed, jumping up and dashing inside the building, only to be knocked back outside. Red Arrow held up his hand for them not to act.
"Well, well, well, little clone isn't as strong as I expected." A voice called out after the man. Bane then stepped outside through the hole.
"Bane?!" Warp asked, obviously surprised at the super villain's appearance.
"Superboy!" A voice cried out, as a green woman with red-hair flew out of the whole. She wore a blue cape with a black undershirt, with a red-cross on it.
"What the hell is going on here?" Warp asked, as Red Arrow began forming a plan.
"Warp, distract Bane. Nightwing, cut off his venom supply. I'll cover you both. Now, go!" Red Arrow nearly yelled. Warp smirked, taking off at a slower speed at Bane. Nightwing turned on his electro gloves and dashed at Bane, while Red Arrow loaded an arrow. The woman picked up Bane with some type of psychic-powers. Warp, taking a deep breath yet began, began to spin himself around, creating a small twister around him, while Red Arrow fired an arrow directly in front of the twister. The arrow hit its mark and made a sort of block of rubber where it had once been.
Nightwing dashed towards them and, using the block of rubber as a launch pad, jumped high into the air and landed on Bane's back. The moment he grabbed Bane, his electro gloves sent out a strong charge of electricity, causing Bane to scream in pain. The man, now identified as Superboy, got up and watched in awe as Nightwing pulled out a wing-ding(his form of batarangs) and cut all the tubes that sent venom through Bane's veins. With a loud scream, Bane turned back to his normal size. The woman then dropped him, and Warp stopped spinning.
"Ugh." Nightwing grunted, holding his head. "Next time, don't try and remove the oxygen, Warp." Nightwing groaned, as Warp smirked.
Warp then took a good look at the girl, who had assisted them, and immediately had hearts in his eyes. He dashed over to her, and smiled.
"Hey, beautiful, nice work with the muscle bound freak." Warp flirted, as the girl blushed a little bit, while Superboy grunted.
"Well, thank you, but we couldn't have done it without your help." She stated, nicely. By this point, both Red Arrow and Nightwing were next to Warp. "Which reminds me, who are you guys?" She asked sweetly.
"My names Warp. That there is Nightwing. And the stick in the mud there is Red Arrow." Warp stated, pointing at each of his brothers.
"I see. Well, thank you for your help, but now we need to regroup with our team and assist them in taking down the Joker." The girl began, immediately catching Nightwing's attention.
"Your team is currently engaged with Joker?" Nightwing asked, as Superboy grunted.
"Yeah, why?" Superboy asked, crossing his arms.
"Tell us his location and we'll take him down." Nightwing stated, calmly.
"Wait, you said 'team', and since Warp told you who we are, I think it we deserve the right of knowing who you are and who are your teammates." Red Arrow stated coldly.
"Hello, Megan!" She stated, tapping her forehead with her hand.
"I'm Miss Martian, and that's Superboy." M'gann stated introducing herself.
"Alright, where's Joker?" Nightwing asked coldly. Before another word could be said, Joker dashed out of a door from a random building.
"Catch me if you can, kiddies!" Joker yelled behind him, dropping some Halloween shaped bombs on the ground. Nightwing reacted first by throwing, what appeared to be an average wing-ding, at Joker. The wing-ding split apart in the air, with a wire connecting the two pieces, and it wrapped around Joker, just as three figures jumped out of the building as the explosion erupted. Joker fell on the ground and began looking around, until he saw them. "Oh, look, it's Bird-Boy! It's been way too long!" Joker stated with a small sadistic smile, as he saw Nightwing.
"What are you doing here?" One of the figures stated, glaring at Nightwing. The members of Oath turned to the figures and saw Aqualad, Robin and some blonde-chick dressed up in a female version of Green Arrow's costume.
"Ah, crap." Warp uttered, causing both Superboy and M'gann to look at him.
"So, these are our replacements, huh?" Red Arrow asked, as the girl glared at him. Nightwing didn't react. Instead, he just turned around
"Replacements? Please, we're more like upgrades." The girl stated putting her hands on her hips.
"Artemis, that's enough." Aqualad stated, putting his arm in front of her.
"Look at him, he's running away like the coward Batman said he was!" Robin called out after Nightwing, who was walking away. Warp gulped, while Red Arrow calmly waited for Nightwing's reaction. Warp looked somewhat scared, because he knew if there's one thing you never called Nightwing and it was a coward, or at least you don't without receiving a bruise of sorts.
"Think what you want, but in the end, remember: You're just sidekicks, while were actual heroes!" Nightwing called out, without so much as turning around.
"That little-!"
"Robin, that's enough!" Aqualad stated, cutting Robin off. "I apologize for my teammate's comments." Aqualad said with a small bow.
"Don't worry about it; just be lucky you caught Wing in a good mood, or else Bird-Boy there would be licking his wounds." Red Arrow stated, turning around to follow his brother. Warp dashed in front of M'gann.
"If your ever in town, be sure to hit us up." Warp stated with a wink, before dashing off to catch his brothers.
"Wow... That was, um, interesting?" M'gann stated, as Superboy grunted once more.
"Yeah, but who were those guys?" Artemis asked, crossing her arms over her chest.
"The one in black is Nightwing, the fast one is Warp, and the archer is obviously Red Arrow. They assisted in the capture of Bane and Nightwing is responsible for Joker over there." M'gann explained, as the team looked over from the unconscious Bane to the gagged Joker.
"I see. They could be a strong asset to the team if we can convince them to join." Aqualad pondered, as Robin scoffed.
"Bats wouldn't allow it if the world was ending." Robin stated, coldly. The other members stared at their youngest member, but shrugged off before returning to the mountain.
What'd you guys think? Roy trying out catch phrases for the team is going well. If you know a famous team leader battle phrase please post it in a comment or in a message to me and I'll use it in the next few chapters until I can figure out the perfect phrase for Oath. Oh ya thanks for the reviews I love writing this story but I'm busy so xD
