The bomb exploded and nobody had expected it. Chaos followed it close behind, making everyone in the gala to scream, cry and run for their lives. As the ground trembled and the smoke made itself present around the salon, Jason quickly covered Damian with his own body in a swift move, making sure to protect the ten years old head by holding it close to his chest. With cautions steps, Jason made his way backwards until his back met a wall. It wasn't the best choice to go with, but it was better than to be stomped by the running and panicked crowd in the middle of the space.

After a few seconds, the ground stopped shaking. Jason looked up and blinked hard, trying to focus his gaze around the room despite the smoke. There were some bodies lying on the ground, cries out of help somewhere around the salon that where almost tuned down by the screaming.

"Damian" Jason called his voice croaky "You okay?" he asks, slightly shaking the ten years old shoulder, when he didn't get an answer two seconds later, Jason frowned and raised his voice "Damian, answer me!" he shouts, this time pushing back the small body to get a better look at his brother.

Groaning, Damian raised his head and met Jason's eyes "I'm okay" he answers in low voice. Jason looked at him skeptically.

"Any injuries?" asks Jason even though he was already checking the kid for any injury.

Damian shook his head "Nothing besides the ringing in my ears and headache" he waved off Jason's hand around him, frowning at him impatiently. Jason ceases his checking and nodded, getting the message.

"What about you, Todd?" inquires Damian eyeing carefully every inch of his brother's body. Jason made a quick check in his head, trying to focus if he was hurting anywhere, after a few seconds, he shrugged softly.

"A few small rocks fell on my back, but nothing serious"

Damian rose his eye brow "Todd, you're bleeding from your forehead"

Jason look of surprise almost made Damian to face palm himself. The young man raised one of his hands and touched gently the side of his forehead Damian was pointing at, when the hand came back down his fingertips were red.

Jason hummed "Okay, and a small cut on the forehead" he adds, nonchalantly "It just needs a band aid" Damian rolled his eyes exasperated. A second later, Dick's voice came through their hidden comms. They never leave for a public event without them.

"Everyone okay?" asks Dick anxiously.

"Demon and I are decent enough" answers Jason, as he stood up from the ground and tugged Damian with him to check on the bodies near them, looking for any survivors. He watches as Damian kneels down a body a few steps away from him and Jason makes a mental note not to let the kid out of his sight for too long.

"I'm okay" came Tim's quiet answer "I'm currently guiding some people out of the building"

"What about you, Dickebird?" inquires Jason.

"I'm fine" he answers followed by a cough "There's just smoke around"

"What about Father?" inquires Damian in low voice as he frowned at the body below him, shaking his head softly before going over the next one near him.

"B is already on the move" informs Dick, they could hear the clear relief in his voice knowing they were all okay "He has the suspicion that the bomb was a set up by the Joker and it was just a distraction"

"I told you it wasn't a good idea to come to this gala" complained Jason, wiping some sweat from his temple.

"It was a charity gala, we had to make an appearance in front of the public" reminds Tim quietly so he would be over heard by anyone around him.

"You just didn't want to wear the monkey suit" declares Damian accusingly, Jason snorts.

"For a good reason"

"Guys, focus" calls Dick firmly "Whereabouts, everyone"

"Todd and I are near the dessert table" says Damian, not ceasing his search for survivors around him.

"I'm already outside" answers Tim, police sirens and ambulances could be heard in the background.

"And I'm about the exit the salon" informs their eldest "Jason and Damian, you know the drill: save who you can without exposing yourselves into danger" he states, voice full of authority.

"Understood, Dickie" affirms Jason nodding absently to himself, grunting as he closed the eyes of one of the bodies he was checking over.

Damian stayed quiet, frowning in conflict.

"Damian, understood?" calls Dick with force

The current Robin sighs and nods "Understood"

After a few minutes of checking the bodies near them, Jason and Damian stood up and look at each other, sharing a solemn look.

"No survivors over here" declares Damian frowning. Jason sighs and waves the ten years old over to come closer, which Damian comply without a word.

"It's okay, Dami. You tried" tries to reassurance Dick softly. Damian limited himself to click his tongue and look at the ground.

"We're on our way to the exit" announces Jason as he grabbed Damian by the shoulder, keeping him close.

"Okay, we will round up once we're all outside and wait for further instructions from B" suggests Dick.

As Jason and Damian made their way slowly and with caution across the room, a cry out of pain caught their attention followed by a scream calling out for help. Both sibling quickly made their way towards the origin of the voice and met with a big pile of rocks.

"Hello? Can you hear me?" calls out Jason loudly, immediately, the cries stops and a young voice of a woman answered him through sobs.

"Yes! Yes, I'm here! Please, help me!" shouts the woman from the inside of the pile. Jason and Damian started to dig out without losing a second.

"Stay calm! You're going to be okay! You hear me? Try to focus on your breathing" orders Jason as he threw some rocks out of the way "Found one, Dick" informs quietly Jason through the comm.

There was a pause before Dick answered "Do what you can, Jay, but be careful" he pleads. Jason just nodded and focused on his task. They were not even half way there to dig the woman up when Tim's voice came back up in the comms.

"Guys, I just heard the police arguing about how there might be another bomb around the building" explains Tim urgently "You need to get out of there, now!"

"Fuck!" curses Jason, panting. Besides him, Damian tenses and accelerated his pace, throwing rocks behind him on record time.

"Jason, Damian! Out, now!" commands Dick through the comm.

Damian immediately objects "But Gray –"

"You can't save everyone, Damian!" cuts off Dick abruptly "Out, now! It's an order!"

"We're almost there!" insists Damian out of breathe as he kept on digging through the rocks.

"Jason!" calls Dick urgently.

"On it" interjects Jason and with a swift motion, we scoops Damian up and threw him over his shoulder, making a run for it to the exit, blocking out his brother's yelling and kicking.

"Unhand me, Todd!" spats Damian angrily "We can save her!"

"Kid, my priority is to get you out of here alive!" shouts back Jason, avoiding with skill the big rocks in the ground.

Suddenly, Jason felt to fingers pressing themselves with force in his cut on his forehead. Letting out a shout of annoyance and pain, Damian took the opportunity to wiggle out his brother's hold and run back to the pile of rocks the woman was trapped in.

"Damian, NO!" screams Jason panicked, already following his brother when a pair of strong arms hold him place.

"Sir! Please, follow us! It's not safe here!" spoke a voice behind him. Jason wildly turned his head back and narrowed his eyes towards the paramedic holding him back.

"Get off me, asshole! My brother's in there!" screams Jason, struggling under the paramedic's hold "Let me go!"

Then one pair became one when a police man helped to drag him back towards the exit and Jason could only watch helplessly as Damian's figure just disappeared into the smoke. Jason didn't even knowledge he was outside until he felt someone patching up his cut and a blanket over his shoulder.

The twenty four years old quickly shrugged off the blanket and waved off the paramedic. Jason ran up towards the entrance of the building, with every intention to go in and look for his reckless brother, when a bunch of police men placed themselves in front of the entrance, blocking his way in.

Jason snarls and without a warning he starts wrestling with them, trying to make his way through when a hand dropped in his shoulder, holding him tight.

"Jason!" calls Dick behind him, and Jason stops immediately and turns back to face Dick and Tim, both of them looking at him confused.

"What are –" Dick starts but cut himself off when he noticed the lack of Damian, looking around the parking lot, searching for a small mop of black hair, Dick's eyes focused on Jason once again, this time panicked "Jay, where's Damian?" he asks under his breathe.

"Jason just pointed at the entrance of the building and both brothers got the message in a second. Soon after, the three of them were wrestling with the police to get through.

"Boys!" shouts a firm voice behind them and the Wayne siblings would have ignored it if it wasn't that some police men got a hold of them and turned them around, facing Commissioner Gordon "What's happening?" he asks irritated.

"Our brother's in there and these fuckers won't let us get him!" complains Jason angrily. Gordon's face changed, this time frowning in concern.

"Damian? Are you sure? Maybe he got out and you haven't found him yet around the crowd?" suggests the Commissioner hopeful. Jason shook his head fanatically.

"He was with me" he says "He was with me inside the building and we were on our way out when he ran back to save a woman and this fuckers pulled him back when I tried to reach for him"

"Okay okay" consents Commissioner Gordon, raising his hand calmly "I will round up a group so they can go look for him. You need to stay here, outside, where it's safe"

"Like hell we are" snaps Jason when suddenly there is a tremble and the second explosion of the evening happens. The people around quickly took safety, backing away from the collapsing building and as the police men left to control the situation at hand, the Wayne siblings just stood there in place, staring horrified at the collapsed building.

"Oh god, no" whispers Dick, eyes wide open staring in shock at the piles of rock that was once a building.

"Damian…" murmurs Tim incredulous, shaking his head softly, not really believing his eyes.

Jason curses loudly and punches the wall near him "Fuck! Goddamnit NO!" he yells out, passing a hand through his hair.

"Maybe he got out" speaks Dick in small voice looking at his brothers.

Tim nods "Or maybe he took safety in a corner as the building collapsed"

"I'm going in there!" declares Jason firmly, already walking towards the remains of the building, even though the firemen were currently getting rid of the fire and smoke that was left.

"Boys" called a strong and deep voice behind them. The former robins snapped their head back recognizing in an instant their father's voice.

There stood Bruce Wayne, face dirty and his Armani suit with cuts all around it, in his arms, holding protectively, an alive and breathing Damian, who was looking the scene with a raised eye brow.

The oldest sons let out a sigh of relief at the sight. Dick quickly stepped forwards and took Damian from Bruce's arms, holding him tight against his chest and dropping small kisses on the smoky black hair.

"Oh gosh, you are so getting grounded for this" chuckles brokenly Dick with a small smile on his face, sniffing. Damian just groaned.

"Father already told me, thanks"

"You lil'shit, if you ever do that again I will be the one to make sure you stay inside the collapsing building" threats Jason, glaring at Damian but then he dropped a hand in his shoulder, reassuring himself his brother was there "Don't do that again, both B and Dickie would have my ass if I let something happened to you"

"Tim chuckles as he joined them "This family needs to stop getting close calls" no one disagreed with that.

"Did your reckless action had a positive side at least?" inquires Jason, and Damian nods with difficulty, as Dick was still holding him close to his chest.

"Batman came just in time to save of both"

'His timing is getting better at least' thought to himself Jason calmly, glancing at Bruce for a second and smiling faintly. Bruce let out a sigh of relief and pulled the four of his sons into a hug, holding them close.

"I'm glad you're safe"

Hope you liked it!
