Roughly four months later (about the time that Jason gets married)
"Dick, I think I found her," Barbara said.
"How the hell does it take so long to find ONE pregnant woman?" Dick shouted into the phone.
Barbara held the phone away from her ear as obscenities flowed out. When she was sure he was finished, she put the phone next to her ear again. "She's in a top secret facility, so she was clearly caught at some point. You'll need help extracting her though. Their security is very tight. The woman running the show managed to convince everyone she's containing metahumans."
Obscenities issued forth again.
"Maybe if you're nice and ask correctly, you could get Jason to help you," Barbara ventured.
"Jason wouldn't help," Dick said.
"I don't know about that... His bride has somewhat of a history with mad scientists."
"Don't call her that. Jason will never go through with it. He lacks the commitment for any long term relationships."
"Just like someone else I know..."
"What does that mean?!" Dick demanded.
"What do you think it mean?" Barbara asked. "How many failed engagements have you had?"
"Babs..."
"Seriously, Dick. You couldn't even get the mother of your child to accept a proposal and she didn't even know your history."
Dick hung the phone up on Barbara.
She looked at the phone. "My God, Dick...it's time for you to take some Midol."
"Damn it, Jason! I'm only trying to talk to you!" Dick shouted.
"It's my honeymoon, dickwad," Jason growled as he began to attack Dick.
Ryo sat up in bed with the sheets around her and looked at her fingernails. "Men."
"You came here armed!" Jason snarled at Dick as he began to protest.
After Bruce has broken up the fight and made Dick leave...
"I said talk," Bruce grunted in Dick's direction.
Dick was silent.
"Does your attack on Jason have anything to do with this problem Barbara tells me you have?"
"What?! Jason attacked me!" Dick protested.
"You interrupted his honeymoon. As I understand it, you literally told him-"
"I told you, Bruce. Being the Red Hood puts them in danger!"
Dick was surprised by a batarang landing close to his face.
"This isn't about Jason!" Bruce barked. "This is about you! Talk. Now."
"...It's a family issue..."
"And I'm not your family? Or Tim? Or even Alfred?"
Dick winced as he checked his injuries a while later. Jason had really done a number on him.
Because of his own stupidity, he had to come clean to Bruce about everything. As it turned out, when he'd hung up on Barbara, she'd been nearly ready to give him the location of the facility she thought Olivia was being held in. Because he hung up on him, she gave the information to Bruce.
He'd pretty much been tricked into telling the man everything.
"Stupid," he mumbled. "I'm so fucking stupid!"
When he decided to apologize to Jason, it turned out the former Robin had returned to his island home with his new wife. Jason had been reluctant to talk to him, but he eventually accepted his apology. With some reluctance.
He'd just started to explain about Olivia when Roy came in and grabbed the phone from Jason. But it was actually Ryo who talked Jason into helping him, so here he was on the Crux with Jason and Roy. Apparently, Kori had chosen to stay home with Ryo. He didn't blame her.
"So let me get this straight," Roy said. "She's gonna have this baby any day now?"
"She's only thirty-four weeks, Roy. She has six more weeks," Dick said.
"So any day now."
Dick sighed. Sometimes Roy could be a dunce.
Jason smacked Roy. "He said six WEEKS, not six days!"
"What? Even I know babies like to come early!" Roy complained. "Save your bitch slaps for when we get to where we're going, ok?"
Jason appeared to think about this for a moment before hitting Roy again.
Dick sighed and put his face into his palm.
"I'm NOT the one who fired that shot!" Jason told Dick.
Dick glared at Jason. He knew how much his brother loved guns.
"He's telling the truth," Roy said. "The shot came from behind us."
Dick frowned, examining the only vantage point an unseen person could fire shots from. "In order for someone to fire a shot of any sort from there, they would have to be a child. Or a very slender woman."
Jason studied the ventilation shaft. "Well, hello Mommie Dearest."
"Shut up," a woman said from inside the ventilation shaft. "I have people to kill. And I am not my employer."
"Well then, hello Maiden Marian."
Roy snickered.
"Tell your friend to stop making fun of my parents love of literature, or I'll put a bullet in his brain," she told Jason.
"Jason, we're not just going to let your mother-in-law kill people here!" Dick said.
"You want to climb into a ventilator shaft after Marian, be my guest," Jason said. "I think that's the only way you're gonna keep more people from getting killed. She has to report to her boss you know."
"Yes. Your Yakuza mother-in-law. I know. Still..."
"You want to rescue your lady love or not?" Marian demanded from inside the ventilator shaft. "Go find her and get the hell out."
Roy grabbed Dick by the arm and dragged him along as he began to protest. "We oughta find your lady. Just like Maiden Marian says."
A/N: The ventilator shaft Marian is hiding in is not close to the ground, but is closer to the ceiling, thus explaining how she was able to shoot the way she did.
