Second Chance
Chapter 7
Hey everyone. Gah, it's 5 in the morning... I'm probably going back to bed once I finish this. Thanks to lindz4567 for reviewing (again). Now, on to business. Of course I wouldn't kill Robin! Robin is too awesome for me to kill. Also, if I killed him, Batman would come and MURDER ME. I WILL NEVER KILL ROBIN! Well, probably not. It depends. Fair warning, there will be CRAP DaddyBats in this chapter.
I still own nothing. I wish I owned YJ. But I don't.

The Batcave
"Dick!"
Bruce Wayne tore across the Batcave to where Superman had just flown in with the unconscious bird. He pulled his son away from his best friend.
"Come on Dickie... wake up...please wake up..."
The boy stirred slightly in his father's arms, but that was all.
"Don't leave me putin pasăre... hang on..."
Bruce looked at Clark.
"You should tell the others."
"Right. I'll... go do that now."
The zeta tube announced his departure, but the other man didn't even notice, completely focused on the boy in his arms.

Mt. Justice
The Team was worried. They had seen the sadness in Superman's eyes as he had brought them into the Cave's living room. They were even more scared when they saw the League-minus Batman and Wonder Woman-assembled there as well. Wally slowly moved up until he stood beside Zatanna.
"Do you think... this has something to do with Robin?"
The magician didn't answer, watching Superman step forward nervously and clear his throat.
"Well, ummm... we found Robin."
Relief spread through the room.
"How is he?" Hawkwoman asked.
"Well... he's alive." Superman responded.
His next words were so quiet, only Superboy could hear them, and they sent a rush of fear through the clone.
"At least... for now..."
Robin...

The Batcave
A terrified scream ripped through the silence of the Batcave.
"Dad! DAD!"
Batman and Wonder Woman dashed across the room, from the computer they had been using to track Psimon to the young hero. Dick was still unconscious, but he was tense with fear, and his desperate cries filled the Batcave, growing louder as whatever nightmare he was locked in tightened its grip. Bruce pulled the boy into his arms, murmuring in Romani, trying to calm his son. Dick's screams stopped, leaving a soft whimpering in their place.
"Tati..."
"Shhh, little bird... it's over now..."
But Diana and Bruce both knew that it was far from over. When they had run a few tests, they had found a toxin like Scarecrow's fear gas. If they couldn't find an antidote, he still might die.
HOLY CLIFFHANGER BATMAN! I know, the ending's crap. But hey, more threatening of Robin's life! I'm on a roll here. Putin pasare means little bird, tati means Dad or Daddy. The next chapter will be Robin's nightmare, and I need you guys to give me a hand. Can you give me your ideas? It'll be the Team and Batman leaving him or dying, but other than that, I have no clue, so PM your ideas or leave them in a review. So... until next time, and...
